Chapter 261 Why didn’t you tell me you moved?
Gu Xiaoxi turned her head and saw the person standing at the door clearly.
Lai Yifeng came, and his brothers searched nearby for a long time before they found Gu Xiaoxi's new residence.
"Why didn't you tell me you were moving?" he said with a look of reproach on his face.
"Where can I go to tell them? There are so many bandits on your mountain. How can I go up the mountain to give them money?" Gu Xiaoxi rolled his eyes at Lai Yifeng.
Lai Yifeng was carrying a wild goat on his shoulder, followed by Lao Bu, who was holding two rabbits and two pheasants in his hands.
Seeing that the person brought gifts to the door, Gu Xiaoxi couldn't kick him out, so he invited him in.
After entering the house, Gu Xiaoxi carried the prey to the yard over there and put it away, then invited them to sit down in the house to drink tea and talk.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with you again?" Gu Xiaoxi asked straight to the point.
Lai Yifeng nodded: "Except for the deeper wound, which seems to have not yet fully healed, everything else is fine.
However, my internal energy seems to be stuck and can't be increased for some reason. I wanted to ask, do you have any medicinal herbs to help me regulate my internal energy?
You name the consultation fee, and I'll give you whatever I can afford."
Gu Xiaoxi had a pretty good impression of this guy, so why not show him what was going on first?
The pulse diagnosis was not effective, so I could only let him lie down in the ward and use my internal energy to check him.
After checking, it was found that this guy's Dantian was blocked. To unblock the Dantian, acupuncture was needed like Zhang Shun did.
After she understood the general situation, she said, "Two thousand taels of silver, about three months. You have to live here for the first ten days because you have to give me acupuncture every day.
Starting from then on, the injection was given every three days, then every five days, and then every ten days.
Because it's the Dantian that's blocked, the pain is quite severe, so you need to be mentally prepared."
Can it be cured with two thousand taels of silver?
Lai Yifeng was so surprised that he was speechless.
Seeing that the boy remained silent, Gu Xiaoxi asked, "Why? Do you think I'm getting a bargain?"
"Thank you, young lady. I will treat it. However, I need to go back and explain to my brothers. Otherwise, the mountain will be taken away by others as soon as I leave." Lai Yifeng came back to his senses and hurriedly explained.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded in understanding and stated her request: "When you are treating the patient here, you cannot allow all of your men to come here. Only two at most, so as not to attract attention."
"Don't worry, young lady. I understand all this." Lai Yifeng responded.
After seeing Lai Yifeng, they didn't stay for dinner. They just left their gifts and left.
Zhang Shun saw these people seemed hesitant to speak, and his little follower Zhang Shu asked curiously, "Brother, who is this ferocious-looking man?"
Zhang Shun came back to his senses and whispered, "He is the biggest bandit leader outside this city."
"What about this girl Xiaoxi?" Zhang Shu became a little worried after hearing this. After all, having an affair with a gangster is not something that can be made public.
"This woman charges money for medical treatment without asking about the source of the money." Zhang Shun was also worried about this problem.
Zhang Shu followed Asan and the others up the mountain today, and roughly learned that his cousin had paid a lot of silver to Xiaoxi girl in order to treat her illness.
However, this girl is really amazing, she actually cured my cousin's stubborn illness. If this story gets to my grandmother's ears, she will definitely be very happy.
So, after returning, he drove the carriage back to the city and asked the servants to deliver the good news to the grandmother immediately.
Not only that, he came alone before because he was afraid of disturbing Asan and the others, and this time he also brought two followers with him.
In this way, more people will go up the mountain to hunt, and they will catch more.
Gu Xiaoxi found that the prey resources here were pretty good. Although there were many of them, their fighting power was also strong, so they could save money on buying meat.
However, the days go by and the New Year is approaching.
It’s the first time to celebrate the New Year in a new home, so a sense of ceremony is essential.
While eating, Gu Xiaoxi asked Zhang Shu if there were any special customs or rituals for celebrating the New Year here.
"Sister, the most lively New Year's event here is the temple fair. However, the temple fair is not in the city, but outside the city gate, not far from your home. There is also a Taoist temple on the mountain there.
It is called Ming and Qing Temple, and the abbot there is a very powerful old Taoist priest.
The temple fair starts on New Year’s Eve and lasts until the sixth day. People from the nearby mountains will bring out a lot of things to sell at the market, making it very lively.
At that time, people from many nearby cities would come here, and most of the medicinal herbs that you can't see normally can be seen here." Zhang Shu knew that Miss Xiaoxi liked medicinal herbs, so he deliberately mentioned this.
Gu Xiaoxi really likes this kind of temple fair. This is her first New Year here, and she hopes to have a happy time.
"Okay, we'll go and take a look then," she murmured.
Zhang Shu looked at his cousin, wondering whether his cousin would stay here for the New Year or go home with him?
"Don't try to hit on me. I have other things to do and won't stay here for the New Year." Zhang Shun said this deliberately.
If he hadn't had such a mental attachment, he would have gone back to work like a hard-working businessman as before.
Although troubled times are not good, there are so many businesses that can be done for a businessman like him.
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Zhang Shun, not knowing whether this was true or false.
But, this is not a big deal to her?
She was a little worried about what was happening with Ye Lixuan.
"Brother San, can you teach me boxing tomorrow?" Zhang Shu suddenly said.
"Of course." Ying San agreed readily.
They started chatting, and Gu Nanming came over and sat next to his sister.
"Xiaoxi, when do you plan to go to that medicine city?" He was more concerned about this issue.
I heard before that Xiaoxi wanted to treat Lai Yifeng's Dantian, which would probably take quite a while. However, the medicinal seedlings for next year have not been found yet?
Gu Xiaoxi hadn't thought about this problem seriously yet, but after hearing what her third brother said, she also remembered about treating Lai Yifeng.
There are less than twenty days left until the Chinese New Year. If you want to go, you can only go before the wind comes.
"If you want to go, I'll go with you! I'm so familiar with the place." Zhang Shu was really multitasking. When he heard that they were going to Yaocheng, he immediately volunteered.
"Then let's go tomorrow! But this will delay your boxing practice." Gu Xiaoxi said apologetically.
Zhang Shu waved his hand carelessly: "It's okay, it's okay. I won't practice in the morning. When we get there, Third Brother will teach me."
After saying that, he turned to look at his cousin and asked flatteringly, "Third brother, do you want to go and take a look? Maybe the business over there is suitable for you?"
Zhang Shun was still quite bored here, but since Gu Xiaoxi was following him anyway, why not go with him?
This way, some troublesome things can be solved.
