Chapter 11 New Life
Xiaoxuan was speechless. If he had known earlier, he would have gone with his elder sister.
Xiaoxuan, who was very bored, went back to the inn and played with Rongrong. After eating well for the past few days, Rongrong's face had some baby fat and her skin was much whiter.
As soon as Xia Yutong arrived at Jishan Hall, Jiang Xin invited her to the backyard.
There was no way, because his master was a lazy guy and he had to ask him many times to prepare the dishes.
Not to mention the miscellaneous tasks in the store, everything is left to him.
Fortunately, his master is kind and has very good medical skills, otherwise it is not known whether this shop can continue to operate.
"Master, Xiao Yutong is here." He learned her name last time. Seeing that she was young, Jiang Xin called her Xiao Yutong.
Xia Yutong was speechless. How much older was she than him?
When Master Zhong heard what his silly disciple said, he turned around and looked at them. "Come on, come in now. What? Do you still need me to invite you in?"
The old man is resting in the backyard. He is old and lacks energy. If he reads for a long time, he will be exhausted and very tired.
Xia Yutong rolled her eyes at him. This old man was really cheeky. She just walked past him.
Jiang Xin looked innocent: "Master, didn't you say that? When Xiao Yutong comes, I will bring her to see you. I am not..."
Jiang Xin wanted to explain himself, but fortunately the old lady stopped him, otherwise the child would have been scolded by his master again.
"Okay, Xin'er, you go out and look after the store first. Come and call your master if you need anything." As soon as the old lady spoke, Mr. Zhong shut up.
It can be seen that his status in the family is average.
That’s right, there was not only Mr. Zhong in the inner courtyard, but also his wife.
"Come here quickly, little girl." Seeing the little girl, the old lady didn't dislike her clothes at all.
I was so busy looking at houses yesterday that I didn’t have time to buy clothes for the family.
But it’s okay, she will just buy some ready-made clothes and take them back later.
Change everything inside and out.
Xia Yutong walked over obediently, but stopped three meters away from them.
She knew that the smell on her body was unpleasant, but there was nothing she could do. It would be strange if her clothes didn't have a smell.
"Hello, old lady." Xia Yutong called out.
"Okay, come and sit down, come and have a drink of water." The old lady said with a kind and loving look on her face.
Seeing that she was serious, Xia Yutong didn't act pretentiously and said, "Thank you very much, old lady." She walked straight to the place in front of the old lady and sat down.
Old man Zhong shook his gray beard. He knew that his wife was a mysophobe, but to see her so kind was truly eye-opening.
I have to say, he was a little confused.
Compared to Mr. Zhong's confusion, his wife was even more confused as to why she would let this girl get close to her.
But there is no sense of rejection.
After eating and drinking for a while, the two chatted for a few words. The old man knew that she must have something to do when she came to see him, so he said goodbye.
Xia Yutong was a little confused about the old lady's sudden coldness, but she didn't want to understand, as there was no connection between them.
After everyone left, Mr. Zhong looked at Xia Yutong and asked, "Why, did you bring all the ginseng?" He regretted it after the last business deal.
Because he didn't believe that this girl could really produce so much ginseng.
He transferred so much money, and then got scolded by his wife. He felt so miserable.
"I brought it." When she came out today, she was carrying a tattered backpack.
After she left the inn, she found a deserted place and took out the ginseng.
However, there is only one century-old tree, and the rest are between ten and fifty years old.
After her last visit, she discovered that for some reason, some precious medicinal herbs were in short supply in this era. She didn't want to give out something that would cost her life.
Most of the items today are from several years ago. After selling all of these, she doesn’t plan to sell any more medicinal herbs.
She is now suitable to hide.
Take the rotten backpack off your back.
Including the one I dug up in the mountains last time.
Mr. Zhong could tell the age of the ginseng at a glance and was a little disappointed.
I thought I would see something he was looking forward to.
"Okay, girl, I'll give you a total of five hundred taels for these, okay?" Apart from the hundred-year-old ones that are worth a little money, the rest are just seedlings and are worthless.
Of course Xia Yutong saw the disappointment on his face; this was exactly the effect she wanted.
"Is that all the money?" He looked disappointed, even more disappointed than him. "I pulled out all the ginseng of my master?" he muttered in dissatisfaction.
Hearing her words, the corners of Mr. Zhong's mouth twitched, and he was very glad that his silly apprentice was not so deceiving.
If the person in front of me is my apprentice, I'm afraid...
What to do if you can’t help itching?
"I'll give you an extra ounce at most. If you think it's appropriate, you can spend it. If you feel you're losing money, forget it. You can take all of this back."
Xia Yutong finally pretended to be nervous and said, "I'll pay, I'll pay." She was doing it for the money, so how could she not pay?
But I guess I won’t have many opportunities to interact with Mr. Zhong in the future.
She is very good at reading people's expressions.
I don't know why she suddenly became so cold, but she is not a person who is loyal to others, let alone someone she has only met a few times.
Profit comes first.
It's good for her to get what she wants. After passing this level, is she afraid that she won't be able to handle the ancient times with such a powerful cheat?
After getting the money, Xia Yutong bought a few more packets of medicine for Xia's father, this time not only for internal use but also for external use.
After leaving the pharmacy, Xia Yutong looked back at Jishantang. It seemed as if the relationship between them was broken, which made people feel a little confused.
Jiang Xin, who was busy in the store, glanced outside and happened to meet Xia Yutong's gaze. He smiled at her friendly and then went back to his own business.
On the way back, Xia Yutong went to buy clothes for the whole family. Of course, she couldn't treat herself badly now that she had money.
Two sets per person, and you can buy winter clothes later, there’s no rush.
When we returned to the inn, Xiaoxuan was packing up. It seemed that the discussion about the house went smoothly.
Seeing his elder sister coming back, Xiaoxuan looked resentful and said, "Sister, you are back. We will go to our new home soon." He was talking about the next matters.
"Don't take these things. We'll go buy new ones later." Xia Yutong didn't even put down the backpack. The little person didn't feel tired even though she was carrying things that were heavier than herself.
Father Xia nodded, agreeing with his eldest daughter: "Xiaotong is right, don't take these things, just take the food."
There were a few broken bowls and a stone pot, and there was nothing I could do with them if I took them back.
Xiaoxuan thought about it and finally obeyed and didn't touch the pile of things.
When we left the inn, the innkeeper came out to see us off in person.
They were so polite to their family that the two men who had carried Xia Feng earlier were waiting outside and would send him back to the yard soon.
