Chapter 032: Equal Treatment
Although she was concerned about Jiang Yu's safety, Su Wan really couldn't help much. On the other hand, she couldn't miss her important business, as she still had to deliver 180 bars of soap to the grocery store.
Su Jing, Su Yun, and Su Yi helped her with the work. They had seen her do it twice before and they almost understood the process. Su Yi burned enough wood ash, and Su Yun had to go to the carpenter to customize a few more sets of molds. This way, the work would be faster and the delivery could be made sooner.
There is still a long time before the agreed time, so the thirty taels of silver should be paid in time.
Let the eldest brother take care of the lard boiling first, Su Wan will make the soaked flower oil.
I bought dried roses, peonies, and roselle. These can be mixed together and soaked. Some of them can be ground into pollen for color adjustment, and the other part can be used for soaking. Soak and press repeatedly, and the fragrance will be released in three or four days.
There are several osmanthus trees planted at Hunter Jiang's house. Su Wan plans to take a bamboo basket to pick fresh osmanthus flowers and soak them in osmanthus almond oil.
Generally, only high-ranking officials and nobles would plant osmanthus. Few people would plant flowering trees in rural areas, especially in ancient rural areas, because osmanthus represents nobility and taste.
But Uncle Jiang is not an ordinary person. Big guys all pursue quality. She remembered that the book said that Uncle Jiang's family planted several osmanthus trees. Every autumn, Su Chen often picked flowers and brought them back to fumigate Gu Yue's clothes.
Gu Yue wrapped the osmanthus flowers with cloth and stuffed them into the closet. This is a natural incense bag. As the heroine, she is indeed very creative.
Hunter Jiang had just laid down on his recliner, ready to take a nap and drink some tea, but before he had been comfortable for long, someone knocked on the door again.
"Who is it?"
"Uncle Jiang, I'm Su Wan from the Su family!"
Hearing the voice of the little girl outside, Hunter Jiang was a little puzzled.
Hiss~ Could it be that something big happened in his apprentice's family?
He went back and forth today and borrowed the horse. He seemed to be in a hurry. Now, not long after, his younger sister came again.
The hunter Jiang's courtyard is the only one in the village with a blue brick wall. It is very spacious because he usually practices sword practice in the courtyard.
It looks ordinary from the outside, but you can clearly smell a strong sweet scent of osmanthus, which is the famous golden osmanthus.
The courtyard is very elegant. In addition to osmanthus, there are also peach trees. There are also potted plants planted on the courtyard wall. When spring comes and the peach blossoms bloom, you can see the branches full of peach blossoms even if you stand outside.
"What happened to your family? You and your brother came here one after another. First you wanted to borrow a horse, but now what's the matter? Just tell me, little girl. I will definitely help if I can!"
If he doesn’t love his own apprentice, who will?
"It's okay, I just want to buy some things that are only available in the provincial capital. I came here to pick some osmanthus flowers from your house, is that okay?" Su Wan explained his purpose.
Hunter Jiang remembered that his disciple would pick osmanthus flowers to bring back for his sister to fumigate her clothes at this time every year. Could it be that this new sister was going to follow suit?
"You want to fumigate your clothes?"
"No, I use it to make flower oil!"
Su Wan doesn't like the scent of osmanthus, it's too strong, she prefers hibiscus.
"Then you're amazing. You can also make flower oil. Come in!"
It sounds like making floral oil is more tasteful than fumigating clothes.
Before Su Wan went in to pick the flowers, he gave Jiang the hunter a piece of soap, a whole, uncut piece.
Anyway, as long as I live, I will keep selling. I followed my previous instructions and demonstrated it to him again, which left him stunned. I also wanted to thank him for lending me the horse.
She also couldn't let others know that there was a wounded person at home. Jiang Yu had many enemies, and she was afraid of causing trouble. But if she didn't save him, she would lose a guarantee in the future.
After picking the osmanthus flowers, she wanted to go see Jiang Yu, but Su Mu wouldn't let her, saying that there was a difference between men and women. He was not wearing any clothes at the moment and his body was covered with bandages. It was against the rules for her, an unmarried girl, to come in.
Su Wan only knew that he was still running a fever and the situation was not optimistic.
Half of the six hours have passed, there is no time to rush. I hope everything goes well for Su Chen.
Su Chen had already arrived at the provincial capital. In order to avoid running around, he went directly to the largest herbal medicine hall in the provincial capital to avoid the trouble of missing this or that. He bought all the medicines at once and spent ten taels of silver.
He rode back at full speed, bought himself some meat patties to replenish his strength, and quickly went to the inn to feed the horse. Only after both the man and the horse were well fed and watered could they continue on their journey.
It was getting darker and it was already midnight. Jiang Yu only had half an hour left before the poison took effect, but Su Chen had not returned yet. He had to boil medicine soon, which was really worrying.
Jiang Yu's lips and eyes had begun to turn black, and spider-web-like black lines appeared on his neck.
Su Wan's goat milk soap has been completed. She also made two kilograms of lard soap with almond oil, used pollen to adjust the color, and made dozens of water-red goat milk soaps.
She sat at the door with her chin in her hand, waiting. Although Jiang Yu was fine in the original novel, her arrival was an exception and there might be some unexpected changes.
The whole family couldn't sleep as they were all waiting, while others didn't want someone to die in their family.
Su Jing waited with her, and seeing her worried look, he didn't know how to comfort her.
Finally, when there was only half an hour left, the sound of horse hooves was heard. Su Chen came towards the moonlight. The continuous horse racing had rubbed the skin at the roots of his thighs.
"Third brother!"
Seeing Su Chen returning, Su Wan quickly stood up to greet him. Su Chen quickly moved his jaw and handed the medicine bag to Su Jing, who then gave it to Su Mujian.
Everything was ready. Su Mu put the medicine directly into the pottery jar and checked it again. Human life was at stake. It was also the first time in his life that he had detoxified. As an apprentice in the clinic, he had no chance to see patients and could only do odd jobs. Now there was such a good opportunity for training, so he should take it seriously.
After a busy day, Su Wan rolled a big bowl of noodles for his third brother, which was full of meat.
"Third brother, you've worked hard. You must be starving. Eat something quickly!"
The noodles smelled delicious. Su Chen couldn't wait and did not forget to return the remaining silver to her. He had more than three taels left, and he used ten taels to buy medicine.
The medicines in the prescription are numerous and varied, so they are expensive.
Su Chen took the first bite. The dough was kneaded well, so the noodles were very chewy. The soup was made with meat, which added a lot of flavor. It was the first time in his life that he had eaten noodles with so much meat.
"Thank you, sister Wanwan!" Su Chen showed a sunny smile.
While eating, Su Yun came over after smelling the food. When he saw such a luxurious bowl of hand-rolled noodles, what else could he do?
"Su Wan, you actually gave Su Chen special treatment and gave him so much meat. I don't care, I want it too!"
"Fourth brother, Third brother has traveled hard and has made great contributions. This is what he deserves!"
"I don't care. Everyone who sees it has a share. You have to treat everyone equally!" Su Yun has such a personality, and Su Wan can't do anything about him.
The code is still there, so she will do it for him.
"Okay, okay, I'll go cook it for you after my second brother finishes boiling the medicine. I'll knead the dough first."
