Chapter 24 Successfully Entering the City
was yelled at by the official, Qiao Linxi instantly felt extremely aggrieved, and the tears rolling in his eyes instantly burst out.
"But I really don't have any money, just do it, sir, and be tolerant."
Facing Qiao Linxi's appearance of pear blossoms with rain, the official just glanced at it and looked away.
Seeing that the tears didn't work, Qiao Linxi gritted his teeth, took out a steamed bun from the system and handed it to the official: "Official, I really don't have any money, why don't I use the steamed bun?" ”
The steamed buns in Qiao Linxi's hand were fragrant and white, like a hand hooking the soul of an official, he involuntarily turned his head to look at the steamed buns in Qiao Linxi's palm, he swallowed his saliva, and it could be seen that he wanted to eat it very much.
The drought has affected not only the area of Yueluo Village, but almost the entire country of Da Viet, so food is in short supply everywhere.
Don't look at these officials standing here majestically and domineeringly, they are also tightening their belts to get by. Now when they see a big white and fragrant steamed bun, their eyes are straight.
"Okay?" Qiao Linxi cautiously held the steamed bun and leaned in front of the official.
"You don't have any money on you, even if I let you in, you won't be able to hire a doctor, don't bother here. Take a walk. ”
As he spoke, the official waved his hand at Qiao Linxi, intending to drive her away.
"Woo ......" Qiao Linxi parked a carriage behind him, and the coachman grabbed the horse and jumped down, took out a string of copper coins from his arms and handed it to the official, who reversed the money in his hand, and then asked people to remove the wooden railing blocking the city gate and let him go.
When the carriage passed Qiao Linxi, the carriage shook, and Qiao Linxi stared at the carriage like a curious baby. She was thinking that the person who could ride in the carriage must be a dignitary. Hey, the world is so unfair.
"Wait......"
Just as the carriage was about to enter the city, the people in the carriage stopped the coachman, Qiao Linxi was a little far away, and did not hear what they said. It's just that the coachman glanced back at Qiao Linxi, and then got out of the car again and took out ten cents from his arms and gave it to the official. Only then did he come back to talk to Qiao Linxi.
"Girl, my master paid for you to enter the city."
"Huh?" Qiao Linxi looked confused, and this good thing?
The coachman looked Qiao Linxi up and down for a moment, didn't say anything, and then returned to the carriage and set up the carriage to leave.
Qiao Linxi, who was covered with mud, reacted at this time, did she pick up a bargain? Someone else pays for her?
"Hey, little girl, you can go in." The official saw that Qiao Linxi was still stunned, and reminded her.
"Oh, thank you." Qiao Linxi put away the steamed buns and entered the city smoothly.
Although Baiyun City is a city, due to the impact of drought, it is not very prosperous, but you can see some stalls on the street in bits and pieces, and there are few people on the street. Qiao Linxi saw the carriage just now at a glance.
The carriage was still very eye-catching, and the few people on the street were attracted by the carriage and guessed what kind of big man was sitting in the carriage.
"Hey, wait." Qiao Linxi waved his hand towards the carriage on tiptoe, and then chased after the carriage with his clothes.
The speed was not fast immediately, and she quickly caught up, and her mother taught her since she was a child to know how to repay the favor. Since others have helped her, there is nothing to repay, so she has to say thank you.
The coachman saw Qiao Linxi catching up, so he stopped, Qiao Linxi walked to the side of the carriage, she did not lift the curtain, but stood next to the car and whispered: "Thank you for giving me the entrance fee to the city." ”
The person in the carriage did not immediately answer Qiao Linxi's words, but spoke leisurely after a while: "It's a trivial matter, and the girl doesn't have to come forward to thank you." ”
The sound was like a magical piano, and every word vibrated Qiao Linxi's little heart. If Xiao Liu's voice can make people's ears pregnant, then this person's voice can shock people's souls.
"Let's go."
Qiao Linxi was stunned, and the carriage left again. She chased after her again and handed the steamed bun in her hand through the car window: "Sir, it's a small thing." I don't have the money to pay you back now, so I'll take the steamed buns. ”
After a long time, the steamed bun in Qiao Linxi's hand was taken away by the person in the car: "The girl will calculate, and one steamed bun is worth ten cents to enter the city." ”
Qiao Linxi was a little embarrassed, she didn't know the price here, and she didn't know what she could buy for ten yuan, but now all she could get her hands on was steamed buns.
And don't feel distressed, the steamed buns are gone, and the lunch box will be automatically produced when the time comes.
"All I can get out is steamed buns, thank you again for your generosity, if he sees each other again, he will definitely pay it back."
After speaking, Qiao Linxi gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, this line is well said.
"Hehe," the person in the car chuckled, "Then I'll make a note of it, if he meets in the future, he will definitely ask you for the ten cents." ”
After speaking, the carriage walked towards the front again, Qiao Linxi scratched the back of her head, feeling that these good lines were all nonsense, she didn't know what the other party looked like, tall and short or round and flat, how would she pay back the money in the future?
"Forget it, fate will definitely meet it."
Qiao Linxi didn't go to hurt her spirit, but asked someone where there was a pharmacy, and she had to go straight to the point. There's a bunch of kids waiting for her outside the city.
According to the road pointed out by the well-wisher, Qiao Linxi saw the pharmacy very quickly.
Entering the pharmacy, Qiao Linxi saw the old man sitting at the counter at a glance, she concluded that this person must be the doctor, took a deep breath and walked up.
"You're always a doctor, aren't you?"
The old doctor glanced up at Qiao Linxi and snorted. Qiao Linxi spoke again: "My eldest sister was seriously injured, her right leg was broken, and now she has a high fever. Can you always prescribe some medicine for me? I don't have any money, but I can exchange other things for medicine with you, can you? ”
The old doctor looked up at Qiao Linxi: "Little girl, do you think it's a playhouse?" Swap things for medicines. I'm not the reincarnation of a living bodhisattva, I can't do that kind of thing to help others, you have to take money if you want medicine. ”
In the era of famine, it is difficult for everyone, any kindness is a floating cloud, and living is the biggest thing.
"I ......" Qiao Linxi was really anxious, she urgently needed medicinal materials to treat Xiao Liu, but she didn't have any money, how could this be good?
"Can't I exchange water with you? Steamed buns, steamed buns can also be changed. ”
When the old doctor heard Qiao Linxi say that he would exchange water, he chuckled in his heart, this little girl who didn't look like she was rich and wealthy actually said that she would exchange water and steamed buns for medicine, didn't she know that water and food were worth more than gold now?
"Water?" The old doctor stroked his beard: "If you can get a bag of water, I will prescribe you a pair of antipyretic medicine." Two bags of water will give you the hemostatic medicine. ”
