The beggar met a seriously ill brother in the pile
After a long time, the shopkeeper came back to his senses, a pair of bright eyes shone like light bulbs, looking at Gu Sangliu shining, the shopkeeper was very excited, and asked: "Xiao Liu'er, tell your uncle quickly, where did you get this ginseng and this Ganoderma lucidum?" I haven't seen such a high age of medicinal herbs for many years. ”
Gu Sangliu blinked his eyes that seemed to shine, his eyes were so bent that the hearts of those who saw it melted, and he stood a little dumbfounded at this time, and his little face also looked very good.
"Uncle Ma, this ginseng and lingzhi were found by my sister and I in the back mountain, Uncle Ma, do you mean, are these ginseng and lingzhi very good?"
The shopkeeper laughed, looked at the confused Xiao Liu'er and explained: "Of course, this Ganoderma lucidum, you look at this color, this texture, at least three hundred and fifty years, you look at these two ginseng, one is about five hundred years, and the other is a little inferior, and there are at least two hundred years." Lao Ma, I have been dealing with medicinal materials for half my life, and it is the first time I have seen such good medicinal materials, you kid are blessed! ”
"This Ganoderma lucidum also has ginseng, is it the medicinal material that Xiao Liu'er wants to sell?"
Gu Sangliu nodded when he heard this, "Yes." ”
"Okay, okay, with such good medicinal materials, the Salvation Hall can treat more patients in the future." The shopkeeper looked at the medicinal herbs and smiled.
After speaking, the shopkeeper continued to say: "Xiao Liu'er, this Lingzhi, uncle, I will give you four hundred taels of silver, and Uncle Ginseng will give you nine hundred and fifty taels of silver, what do you think?" The price your uncle gives you is the fairest and most just. ”
When Gu Sangliu heard that ginseng and lingzhi could make so much money, everyone was stupid, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After a while, Gu Sangliu's eyes were a little moist when he looked at the shopkeeper, "Thank you, Uncle Ma, Uncle Ma is very trustworthy, but Uncle Ma, the medicine and medical expenses that I owed to my uncle on credit before, my uncle will deduct it from this." ”
The shopkeeper was about to say no, but looking at the stubbornness on Xiao Liu'er's face, he retracted the words he was about to blurt out.
"Okay, my uncle will deduct it from the fee for this medicinal herb."
After the deduction, Gu Sangliu got a total of 1,230 taels of silver, and a total of 120 taels were deducted for medicine and medical expenses.
At the beginning, Gu's father's body needed medicine, the body of the beautiful mother's mother also needed medicine, and then Shu'er, who had always needed medicine.
Now, I have finally repaid the help and credit that Uncle Ma has given them for so many years.
Gu Sangliu showed a relieved and relaxed smile on his face.
In order to make it easier for Xiao Liu'er to carry, the shopkeeper exchanged the remaining 1,230 taels of silver into silver tickets, and the remaining 130 taels into broken silver.
This is so easy for Gu Sangliu to carry.
After Gu Sangliu thanked the shopkeeper, he said goodbye to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper hurriedly advised, "Be careful on the road, if you have any good medicinal materials in the future, you will come to your uncle, and your uncle will want it." ”
Gu Sangliu smiled and said, "Okay, uncle, Liu'er has good medicinal materials, and she will definitely find her uncle as soon as possible." ”
Gu Sangliu walked out of the door of the Salvation Hall, feeling like he was in a dream, at this moment, he couldn't believe that he was carrying so much silver.
The boy's face looked bright and beautiful in the warm sunlight.
Gu Sangliu carried a thousand taels of silver, thought about where the eldest brother was, and raised his feet towards the place where Gu Sangjue was working.
Along the way, Gu Sangliu thought that now that he had the silver, when he found his eldest brother, he could buy some ready-to-wear clothes for his family with his eldest brother, since his father and mother fell, the family had not bought clothes for a long time.
If your clothes are dirty and torn, wash them, mend them, and wear them like this.
Gu Sangliu walked briskly to the eldest brother's merchant's house, and bought himself two buns to cushion his stomach.
I don't know why, it's obviously a fragrant meat bun, but he just thinks it's not as delicious as the simple egg soup made by his own Yubao.
Gu Sangliu thought as he walked, to go to the back door of the merchant, there was a small alley that had to be passed, and there were piles of beggars in it.
Thinking of this, Gu Sangliu's delicate little eyebrows furrowed, and sighed lightly, it's okay, fortunately, he is also the simplest image, and even what he wears, except for a little cleaner, is not much better than what a beggar wears.
After a while, Gu Sangliu walked to the entrance of the small alley, Gu Sangliu took a deep breath, tightened the back rope of the back basket, and raised his legs to walk inside.
As soon as he walked in, Gu Sangliu found Gu Sangjue wrapped in a straw mat, Gu Sangliu was shocked at the moment, didn't his eldest brother work in the merchant in front?
Why did it become the way it is?
He still remembered that when the eldest brother came back, his cheeks were sunken and his body was full of bones, but the eyes that looked like his father were bright and bright, but now, his eldest brother was wrapped in a dirty and tattered straw mat.
Gu Sangliu's heart ached, did he not come to find his eldest brother today, and no one knew if his eldest brother died here like this?
What is this place?
It was the largest pile of beggars in Quanming North Town, those beggars he hadn't seen before, dirty and smelly, without any moral bottom line, without food, he went to the street to rob them, not to beg.
This style is completely no different from that of bandits.
Gu Sangliu looked at the beggars who were staring at him not far away, as if they had seen wolf meat, they had already discovered him, but they didn't rush up to him just because he was so tattered.
Gu Sangliu couldn't care about any beggars at this time, seeing the eldest brother who was dying at the moment, big tears welled up in Gu Sangliu's beautiful peach blossom eyes.
On the way here, he still thought that now that he has money, he can take his eldest brother to buy some needed things for the family, but how good he thinks, how big the fall of the eldest brother will hit him.
He never thought that the eldest brother who provoked the whole family would fall, he has always been because of the eldest brother, so he will not seem so helpless and confused, now, finally his sister is not stupid, the family situation is better, but his eldest brother is lying in this beggar pile at this time, life and death are unknown.
Gu Sangliu immediately ran over and called his brother one by one, and after screaming for a long time, Gu Sangjue opened his heavy eyelids slightly.
Gu Sangjue was even thinner at this time, as if he could dissipate when a gust of wind blew, Gu Sangliu just looked at the appearance of his eldest brother with his eyes closed, for fear that he would never wake up his brother again.
Fortunately, fortunately, his brother was conscious, he watched his brother open his eyes, wanted to speak but couldn't open his mouth, Gu Sangliu's tears became more and more fierce.
"Big brother, I'll take you to see the doctor, you are the pillar of our family, you can't fall, big brother, let me tell you, now my sister is sober, my father has cheered up, Shu'er has also recovered his mobility, our family is waiting for you now, you can't fall, as long as you are here, our life will get better and better."
Gu Sangliu couldn't take care of so much at this time, took off the back basket on his back, and struggled to carry Gu Sangjue on his back and began to rush to the Salvation Hall.
At this moment, he couldn't think of anything else, he only thought that his brother must not have an accident.
Absolutely not.
Gu Sangliu's small body was carrying his thin brother on his back, he felt that it was too light, and his eldest brother was only nine years old.
Gu Sangliu carried Gu Sangjue on his back and quickly rushed to the Salvation Hall.
