In ancient times, superstition was greater than science. Chu jiangxue sat on one side until her legs were numb and almost unconscious, but the chanting stopped.
At this time also just noon, the wood fragrant supports Chu River snow to get up: "young lady, let's go back to the palace?"
"Did Mr. Chang ask for it?"
"No, after all, you are the imperial concubine. You can't stay outside the palace!"
Since there is no rule to go immediately, Chu jiangxue asks Muxiang to help him find Chang Gonggong.
When she got to the old man, Chu jiangxue pulled out a gold hairpin on her head and put it into the old man's hand: "Mr. Chang, the Emperor didn't tell me when to go back to the palace, did he?"
"Although I didn't give orders, I can't stay outside for too long..."
"I understand. I promise to go back to the palace before sunset." Finish saying, haven't waited for Chang Gong to reply, Chu River Snow pulled Mu Xiang to leave.
Chang Gonggong also had some helplessness, but after taking a look at the gold hairpin in his hand, he didn't care: "spend money to buy time, this girl has a little brain."
After changing clothes on the carriage, Chu jiangxue left the East Street. According to the direction of Muxiang, I went to a pharmacy in the name of Chu family.
A while ago, it was raining almost all the time. The people in the drugstore were quite careful. They were drying a pile of medicinal materials at the door. As soon as they came in, they saw the old housekeeper inside.
Seeing Chu jiangxue coming here, the old housekeeper was surprised: "Miss, why are you here?"
"Just stop by to have a look. I'm relieved to see you are so careful!"
"Miss, the plague is rampant now, and soon the medicinal materials will be in short supply. If we don't increase the price, we will pay for it."
"Then pay for it. When the dowry is finished, please let me know." Chujiangxue joked.
As soon as her voice fell, the little bean on one side ran to her: "before, brother Laifu sent a box of money. Shouldn't the money sent by a man be a betrothal gift?"
This little Douding really can't speak. At this time, it embarrasses Chu jiangxue. The old housekeeper immediately pulls him behind: "Miss, the child is still young and doesn't understand. Don't be surprised!"
The child was only five years old. It seemed too early to say that. Chu jiangxue frowned: "housekeeper, didn't you invite the master to the mansion? Why is xiaodouding here? "
"Master is ill. He hasn't come to teach these two days." The old housekeeper explained.
All the teachers who came to teach were ill, and Chu jiangxue's face was even worse: "did you let the doctor go to see it?"
"Yes, the doctor said. The situation of master is not optimistic."
"The teacher who teaches and educates must be rescued. He often sends people to check the situation. No matter how expensive the medicinal materials are, his life must be saved!"
"Miss, the drugstore was half dead before. It's getting better these days. But once the plague has passed, there's no hope for the drugstore. Does Miss have the idea to sell the drugstore?"
There is not much left in the Chu family's industry. If you sell it again, you'll be out of the palace later. Won't you just sit back and eat up? Chu Xue Jiang shook his head: "if you don't sell it, you won't sell it even if you die! If there is no successor in our Chu family, we will leave this shop to your family. "
Chu jiangxue said it very directly, and the old housekeeper sighed: "Miss, don't think about it. Even if the young master is not here, you are still there, you will marry and have children, and the Chu family will not have no successor. When the master was alive, he had already set up some houses and land for the slave, which was enough for his family to eat and wear. "
Now in this world, it's not easy to live. At this time, there was a noise on the opposite side, and the old housekeeper's face was not right: "Miss, it's windy outside. You'd better go inside!"
Looking at the old housekeeper's reaction, there should be something to hide from him. Chu jiangxue was curious: "it's hot in the house, I'll go outside to blow the wind!"
"Miss, you can't go!"
"Why?" Chu jiangxue is aggressive and doesn't give the old housekeeper room to maneuver.
Seeing that he couldn't hide it, the old housekeeper told the truth: "they are from the Bujia drugstore. Since the master left, they have been suppressing us and discrediting us everywhere. If it wasn't for the outbreak of the plague and the shortage of medicinal materials in their family, the people would not come to us."
Villain is hard to guard, Chujiang snow some gas, but: "I will meet them."
Before entering the palace, Chu jiangxue seldom went out because of her body, let alone the common people. Even the women in your circle didn't know her.
After arriving at the medicine shop of the opposite Bujia, those people didn't know her. The shopkeeper had the insight to see that Chu jiangxue was not an ordinary girl.
The boss of the Bujia drugstore is flattering. Chu Jiang Xue wants to slap him to death, but she won't take the initiative to make trouble for the boss of the Bujia drugstore.
Without waiting for Chu jiangxue to say anything, the boss of Bu's drugstore said, "girl, I don't think you're a girl of other people. You're looking for precious herbs. Don't you have the small drugstore of Chu's opposite?"
The old shopkeeper is really smart. When he opens his mouth, he says this kind of words and deliberately belittles the Chu family drugstore. Chu jiangxue smiles: "how do you know I want valuable things? They don't have them?""After the master of the Chu family died, even his family was copied. How can they afford to buy medicinal materials? Now they sell old medicines, which have poor efficacy, let alone precious medicinal materials! Even if you buy it, you can't use it. "
"What if I want to buy some ordinary things and shop around?"
"Girl, shopping is not only about price, but also about quality. Look at them. Few people go in every day, and they're so lazy. It's just a whim today. They're drying herbs at the door."
It's really the same as the old housekeeper said, the people of the Bu family have been discrediting them. Looking at the shopkeeper of the Bu family, he just wanted to open his mouth to accept him. The shopkeeper of the Bu family said: "girl, all the old men in their family are dead, and there is only one daughter left. All the family are unlucky. You are a golden branch. If you are unlucky, it's not good!"
Words can also say this, Chu River snow is also extremely unexpected: "shopkeeper, words can't say so."
"It's true that all the servants of Chu family were sold. That's the fate of traitors, you know! Rumor has it that Chu's father and son are unfaithful, which leads to such an end! Fortunately, your Majesty's benevolence and righteousness are all excellent, leaving the Chu family a life. "
Hearing this, Chu jiangxue clenched her fist and tried to control her mood. Since this old guy is looking for death, Chu jiangxue is willing to help him, but not now.
After she controlled her mood, she said, "what's good in your family?"
"Wild ginseng, pilose antler, Cordyceps and so on. We have everything you want from Bujia drugstore."
After the plague appeared, many medicinal materials in the palace were scarce, but there were so many Bujia. It's really interesting. Chu River snow looked: "did not see goods, this girl can't buy, in case this goods is not good, can lose!"
"Girl, you can follow me. These goods are good. I never cheat."
The old man was so confident that Chu jiangxue gave him a look and motioned him to take him. When we got to the counter, the shopkeeper looked at the guys and said, "guys, this girl has a lot of talent. Take out all the good goods!"
After listening to this, several guys acted very quickly, and soon presented things to Chu jiangxue. After a close look, there was nothing wrong with it: "things are good things, but I only buy some honeysuckle, Huang Cen and forsythia. It's good to eat Shuanghuanglian when the plague breaks out. "
