Chapter 2185

Lin Xi slowly told the story of Du Fu's wits against Diao county magistrate.

When Du Fu first arrived at Shatou Town, he had no source of livelihood. Although he had the help of his brother Du Guan and friends, after all, it was a matter of relying on others and not a long-term plan.

So, with the help of all the people, he opened a herbal medicine shop in the herbal hall to sell medicine and spend the years chatting.

After the opening of the medicine shop, the goods are genuine and the children and the old are not deceived. For some poor people who can't afford medicine, they will also give medicinal materials free of charge.

The local people were full of praise and went to the herbal hall to buy medicine.

But in this way, they offended the owners of several other medicine shops. They bought off the local county magistrate and wanted to smash the sign of the herbal hall.

On a rainy day, there were not many customers in the medicine shop.

Suddenly, the door rang, and a scribe came in. He looked at him as if there were no one else. He threw the prescription on the counter and said loudly, "this is the medicine urgently needed by the county magistrate. Take a single dose of medicine as soon as possible. If you don't match it properly, you won't want to sell medicine here again..."

The clerk of the medicine shop quickly took the prescription and was stunned at the sight. He saw that the four medicines written on it were: "early transportation, late transportation, positive transportation, no transportation..."

An old man quickly apologized and said, "which wise doctor did your brother ask for the prescription? Why haven't we seen such strange herbs..."

Before he finished speaking, the scribe scolded, "what kind of medicine shop do you open? Call out old shepherd Du quickly. If you don't match the medicine of the county magistrate, I'll smash your sign..."

The guys didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly told Du Fu about it.

As soon as Du Fu heard this, he knew that he had come to make trouble on purpose. When he took the prescription, he smiled coldly. Then he took the four herbs, came out, met the scribe, and asked with an arched hand, "please, elder brother. What advice does the county magistrate have..."

The scribe didn't look at Du Fu, but replied arrogantly, "give the medicine according to the prescription! Otherwise, don't blame me for smashing your sign..."

Du Fu said calmly, "we have everything the county magistrate needs in our medicine shop..."

Then he took out four herbs: a piece of dried radish, a piece of ginger sprout, a fresh plum and a dried peach.

The scribe looked silly and said, "old shepherd Du, what are you taking here..."

Du Fu said, "dried turnip means' Ganluo '. Ganluo became prime minister at the age of 12. Do you think he has' early luck' ·"

"Yes... Yes..." the scribe replied hurriedly.

"Ginger sprout means' Jiang Ziya '. When Jiang Ziya meets King Wen at the age of 83, is it' late '

"Yes, yes... The scribe answered again.

"You're lucky to lose Li, but you're lucky to lose li..."

"Ah, this, this... The scribe was helpless.

"This is the peach of the next year. After being beaten by snow, frost and frost, it is not fresh fruit and can only be used as medicine, so it's said that it's not lucky..."

The scribe had no words to refute, so he had to nod again and again, pick up these "drugs" and go back to work in a gloomy way.

At the end of the story, Lin Xi said, "so the answer to your lantern riddle is dried radish, ginger sprouts, fresh plum and dried peach..."

An Yuexi looked back at Qiu Yinong and seemed to ask her, is this the right answer?

Qiu Yulong smiled and encouraged, "not yet. Thank you, uncle Lin

An Yuexi cheered and bowed down in a decent way: "thank you, uncle Lin. your story is really interesting and sounds great..."

An Yutian then said, "the lantern riddle has been solved and the story has been heard. Go back to your seat and sit down. Don't delay uncle Lin's dinner..."

Children are particularly easy to be satisfied. Anyue River agrees, holds the dragon lantern and returns to his position skillfully.

An Yutian apologized to Lin Xi and said, "brother Lin, children are not sensible. You're laughing..."

Lin Xi responded politely: "Yuexi is at the age of innocence. Why do you laugh? I can see that she likes listening to stories very much..."

An Yutian doted on looking at his daughter. Instead of continuing the topic, he asked Lin Xi to eat more.

Lin Xi was also impolite and ate it quickly. I have to say that the crispy meat fried by Qiu Yinong did not have the taste of Lin Yunxian, but it was also unique. Lin Xi made an exception and ate better, and his stomach was full.

This is the first time he has eaten so much in half a month. He is full of praise for Qiu Yinong's skill. It is clear that ordinary dishes can make delicious food in the world, which is still meaningful and has a lingering aftertaste. It is really ingenious.

Lin Xi finally knew that an Yutian was so young, why did he have such a big daughter?

When you meet such a docile, virtuous and considerate woman as Qiu Yinong, although she looks inferior, she is undoubtedly a good mate in the world. Who can not be moved?

The three members of a family live in seclusion here and don't ask about the world. It's really a good story in the world.

Finish your meal.

Qiu Yinong leads an Yuexi to play in the courtyard, while Lin Xi follows an Yutian back to his study.

The gifts have been delivered, and the greetings are enough. It's time to enter the theme.

An Yutian asked Lin Xi to sit down, poured him a cup of snow tea, asked him to moisten his voice, and then said with a gentle smile: "brother Lin must have many questions when he came here today, but please speak freely. Yutian answered everything..."

Lin Xi was slightly stunned. He didn't seem to expect that an Yutian would be so straightforward.

He had thought that even if an Yutian would tell him, he would tell him selectively. Just like Deng Xiaoyu, he never had extravagant demands. He could learn everything he wanted from an Yutian.

But on second thought, as an Yutian's status, it was impossible to lie to him, so after a little meditation, he asked the first question: "excuse me, brother an, why did you help me that night..."

An Yutian poured himself a cup of snow tea, sipped the tea, smiled and replied, "because helping brother Lin is not only helping myself, but also helping our five families..."

Lin Xi was stunned and didn't know why.

An Yutian asked, "brother Lin, do you know the origin of my five families..."

Lin Xi once heard from Zhang Zhiyan and learned something from Tong's father. He said, "apart from brother an's family, which comes from the descendants of xie'an in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the other four of your five families in Kyoto come from the pre-Qin period and have a heritage of more than 2000 years. No one can match the details of the other families..."

An Yutian shook his head and said softly, "wrong! If our five families are just like this, how can we be the head of all families and have today's details..."
