1327, the road to return (5) three in one(2/3)
Lin Yutong looked at Shao Hua sitting on the couch, shaking hands from time to time, feeling strange. Speaking of this sister-in-law, she is actually a nice person. On this day, the several charcoal basins in the house are still not very warm.
After the needle was inserted, I began to tremble. I took a breath from time to time, then lifted up my clothes, put my hands on my stomach to warm them, and then continued.
It's so painful to do this.
She grabbed it and threw it away: "I won't do this anymore, I'll find a way to do something else."
No matter how well-made it is, people won't be shy about wearing it. When you take it out, it's still looked down upon.
If this continues, the eldest grandmother of the Yu family will get frostbite on her hands, which makes her look even better.
Sure enough, Jia Mu called her the next day and asked about going south. Seeing that it was Jia She who gave the order, she didn't say much. She just asked who she had brought with her and whether she had brought all her things... something like that.
When Lin Yutong and Shao Hua came back from there, Lin Yutong asked Maodou to go out and buy hawthorns. The cheapest fruit that can be bought now is this kind of wild hawthorn.
I spent a tael of silver to get two cars with roofs on them.
"It's sour and astringent, what do you want with this?" Even Mrs. Yu in the kitchen frowned: "This girl has been coaxed."
Lin Yutong smiled and said nothing, and just asked them to pick the ones that were red, round and of good quality. Anyway, there were two carts of fruits, but they only picked out one basket that they were satisfied with.
Lin Yutong also asked someone to clean the rest, "This is for hawthorn sauce. Just wash it out and I'll make it."
And for the basket that was picked out, people bought mountain spring water for soaking, and also asked people to buy good lamb wine for soaking, and then various medicinal materials were bought from time to time.
, the servants all said that a basket of wild fruits cost an unknown amount of money to go with it.
In fact, those medicinal materials were all cheap. The ones prescribed were ginseng and deer antlers, but the ones I bought from Edamame were very common. Edamame was also smart. When people asked what to buy, he would just give them the list.
People say: "I don't know how to read, so I just buy whatever the girl tells me to buy."
In fact, the items on the list were carefully manipulated. Those with marks were bought, while those without marks were just for others to see.
Therefore, the people in the mansion did not know the details. They only knew that the Yu family was preparing for the festival. But look at the medicinal materials alone, including a thousand or two small ones.
As for Lin Yutong, he specially set up a room to store these things, and no girl was allowed to come in or out.
In fact, it’s not that mysterious. It’s just something like hawthorn wine. It contains medicinal materials, and it’s true that drinking it has good health effects.
But she really couldn't use those medicinal materials, let alone the expensive ones. Taking advantage of the opportunity to buy medicinal materials this time, she also bought some common medicinal materials for other uses. She prepared a lot of balsams with different effects.
When people asked, they told me that they made balsam powder at home, but they didn’t take it seriously and asked about it.
For example, this frostbite ointment has a faint scent, but the effect is extremely good.
I asked several servants in my yard to use it, especially Mrs. Yu, whose hands were as swollen as steamed buns in winter. After using it for seven days, except for some bruises and bruises, there was no pain or itching.
She is already an old person in the Jia family. She is so good that she shows off wherever she goes. Many servants are willing to help the master deliver things here. If they want a reward, they don't want anything else, just this little balm.
If you can reward yourself with a small porcelain vase, it is the Amitabha Buddha. There is chilblain ointment in the drug store outside, but it smells bad and the effect is not good. The main reason is that it is expensive. A porcelain vase the size of an apricot costs one or two or eight yuan of silver.
Lin Yutong knows the mouths of these servants best. If they don't let them eat enough of the benefits, they can make up any words. Now they are generously giving the medicines, and they can't help but praise the Yu family.
Boast to heaven.
She was just building momentum, and when she had built enough momentum, what she presented left people speechless.
For example, after the hawthorn sauce was made, Sanchun came with Daiyu Baoyu. Lin Yutong did not serve tea, but just a cup of water made with hawthorn sauce. After eating it a few times, he felt better.
.I said that I didn’t feel it at first, but after trying it twice, I felt that I could sleep well when I went back, and my meals the next day were delicious. Especially Baoyu and Daiyu, Baoyu is one point good and can be praised as ten points.
And what about Daiyu? That is really effective. Lin Yutong himself put something in the bowl for Daiyu more than others. So, it is winter, and I still coughed at first, but then I stopped coughing, so don’t worry about it.
What did I eat that day? I drank a cup of honey water in the evening. I didn’t delay eating or drinking the next day at all. I didn’t see any accumulated food. Wang Xifeng’s eldest sister and the nanny secretly fed her some porridge and water.
, and then he coughed and had phlegm stuck in his throat. The child felt uncomfortable, and the adults who heard it were also anxious. Give him some medicine, and the child would not eat it. After hearing what Daiyu said, he sent Ping'er to ask for a jar. Drink.
The sound of phlegm stuck in the throat disappeared that night. After drinking it for two days, nothing happened. No medicine has this effect!
Jia Mu said, "I can't blame you for your intentions." Then she asked, "Where did you learn these folk remedies?"
Lin Yutong pushed this matter to the grandmother who had taken care of the original body before: "...These are all health-preserving things, but I dare not say that they cure diseases. Drinking them often has nothing wrong with them." He also talked about those balsams,
"Mammy's hometown is originally in the north. It's colder there than in the capital. If you freeze outside for a night, your hands and feet will be completely frozen. Maybe there are many treatments, but everyone will make some medicine by themselves. It only depends on whether the medicine is good or not.
It's easy to talk. For my daughter's household items, I added some medicinal herbs such as Angelica dahurica and some spices, which are suitable for use."
It's reassuring that the Jia family doesn't look down on everything. They think your stuff is good and just send people to get it. But they don't want to insist on the prescription. In the end, they feel that there is no need to worry about something that can be done just by asking.
The one with three melons and two dates takes a lot of effort.
Shao Hua then put his heart in his heart and collected the accounts. In total, he spent less than fifty taels of silver. He had done many things. In the evening, the aunt and sister-in-law had a private conversation, and she also said: "I
I’m afraid what if I need a prescription?”
Lin Yutong laughed: "First, people look down on me, and second, I'm on guard. They don't know what medicinal materials I put in, so they just think it's expensive. Let's talk about the chilblain ointment. If we reveal it to them,
Calculating the cost, how much does this vial cost?" She calculated by herself, "If you want to sell it, the cost of the medicine, wages, and the cost of renting the shop must be added. In this way, a bottle of medicine will
, no matter what, it costs three to five taels of silver. My sister-in-law, in this poor family, who would be willing to spend three to five taels of silver to buy this medicine. But if you can afford the medicine and don’t feel bad after spending this money, how can you get frostbite?
Fuck your face?"
That's the truth.
Therefore, in their view, this is useless. If you can use it yourself and make money, it is not worth it at all.
Because they had estimated the price, they all felt that the Yu family was being generous.
Shao Hua's heart started to beat wildly when he saw the calculation: "Sister... if we do this business ourselves..."
Lin Yutong shushed: "We'll discuss it when my brother comes back. I don't know what's going on with the Yu family now. If we don't have anyone to rely on, isn't it just making wedding clothes for others?"
Yes! Why did you forget about that place?
He stopped mentioning this and frowned: "Is your brother going back now?"
We had something to do when we got there, so we couldn't return so soon. The group of people got off the boat and separated from the people in the house. After making an appointment to go back, the two people took the talent to another store.
After repairing some things at the inn, Yu Liangxin said that he would go to the Yanyan Censor's Mansion the next day. The Fourth Master told him to just rest, saying that he was taking someone out to do some errands.
It's only noon. If everything goes well, I should be able to call back and forth in the evening.
Tongtong wrote down the address in great detail, including which door to go out and which way to go. Fourth Master found it at this address. The nunnery was still there, but it was deserted and there was no one there.
He took the people with him and went to nearby villages to inquire. Someone actually knew: "Guan Guan, did you mean to borrow the women and children living in the nunnery?"
Tongtong only talked about children, not women.
I was afraid something might happen in the meantime. He nodded and said, "If I have only stayed with this group of people in recent years, it should be them."
"It's not easy to find now." The man said, "It used to be two women, and then the two women gave birth to two more children. Later, one of the women died, and the other one was said to be dead.
Many people wanted to find the sister-in-law in the nunnery and ask the remaining woman if she could sell her child... but the woman was like a hungry wolf. She would fight anyone who said she wanted to buy her child. Later, she said yes.
Someone came from the southern part of the country and said that their young master was ill. He only said that it was the Bodhisattva who gave him advice in his dream. He also said that there was a certain nunnery outside Yangzhou City where a certain person lived. He only said that these people were the noble ones in his life.
. It’s true. The names are correct. We need to invite the noble man back to ensure his safety. You said that the origin of this person is unclear. What if the woman and child are sold? I don’t want others to know.
I asked people from the government office to testify, and they are people from the so-called Hou Mansion in the southern part of the country..."
"Marquis of Jinghai?" Fourth Master asked. Reading history books is not free. I also read some unofficial histories of this dynasty and knew that there was such a marquis mansion far away from the capital.
"Yes, yes! It's Marquis Jinghai." The man clapped his hands and said, "The people in the Marquis's mansion knelt and begged before they were invited to the car. They've been gone for...several years."
The Fourth Master understood everything at once: The young master of Houwen’s family in Jinghai?
hehe!
It seems to have a brighter future than myself, a distant sect of the Jia family.
He clicked his tongue: It seems that the obsession is still very deep. The same days are going around in circles again and again. This man is not tired of panic, and he even tries his best to find someone to let him go.
Under the nose, this sentiment is not superficial.
Looking at the dilapidated nunnery, he felt that Tongtong was not sure what his life would be like without him. At the same time, he thought that when he went back this time, he had to decide on the marriage quickly.
In addition, what matters now is that Lin Ruhai cannot die yet. Tongtong didn't say anything about Lin Ruhai, but with Tongtong's character, he couldn't see Lin Ruhai dying like that.
The next day, two people followed Yu Liang and handed in a greeting card asking for an audience.
It was necessary to meet him. One was the late madam's nephew, and the other was the late madam's nephew.
When the two of them entered, they called one uncle and the other uncle.
Lin Ruhai also responded one by one.
Yu Liang handed over Daiyu's things, and Lin Ruhai attentively invited the guests and asked her to clean up the guest house, "How can there be any reason to stay in an inn when you are at your doorstep?"
That was just right, so I moved in right away. After I moved in, it became much easier to do a lot of things when I went out.
Yu Liang went out to buy goods and went to look for strange stones for Jia She. The Fourth Master was in the Lin Mansion, so he walked around by himself when he had nothing to do. Lin Ruhai was in poor health, so he was mostly at home for the rest of the day, and then the two of them played chess and gossiped.
Lin Ruhai inquired about the Yu family a lot in her words. They had not interacted with each other for these years, and this sudden appearance made people not sure how to deal with it.
The fourth master then told him how the Yu family brothers and sisters fled, what they did after escaping, how they purchased their purchasers when they arrived in Dengzhou, and how they were taken to Jia's house.
The more Lin Ruhai listened, the slower the chess moves in his hand became. He understood the meaning. This distant nephew was actually giving him a hint.
That's right! Brothers and sisters who have fled know how to buy people and buy daily necessities. You, the lady who patrols the salt censor's family, what is it like when you go to Jia's house?
Taking it a step further, he was hinting to himself that Daiyu's life in that mansion was not as good as she thought.
My grandmother is a relative, my uncle is a close relative, but this aunt is not a close relative. It must have been a rare thing when I lived here for a short time, but when I live here for a long time, it's all a matter of course.
To be continued...
