Chapter 148 We'll See You Soon
Pei Xuan intended to tease her, but he didn't expect her to be so cold. He immediately felt bored and said, "You don't need the approval documents. Just these are enough."
The medicine boy in the room brought the herbs, and Yang Jiyu was packing them for him. He finally divided them into three small packages with great skill and said, "Cinnabar is sensitive to fire, and musk is sensitive to moisture. The total is three taels and seven qian of silver."
The silver that Pei Xuan gave her must have been hard to find. She was about to go to the counter to get some change when Pei Xuan stopped her and said, "No need for change."
He reached out to take the packets of medicine, but suddenly grabbed Yang Jiyu's wrist and said, "Just consider it as me giving money away for charity."
His palm was warm, and his thumb was pressing right on her pulse. Yang Jiyu noticed it and suddenly pulled his hand away, knocking over the medicine jar on the table. The boiling hot medicine poured out, and Pei Xuan couldn't dodge in time, and the back of his hand suddenly turned red.
Ye Lanzhou on the side frowned as he watched this scene. Pei Xuan's technique was quite quick, and that touch looked like the pulse-taking technique of a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. It seemed that this young man was also a doctor.
"Don't move!"
Yang Jiyu didn't care about her wet sleeves, she grabbed his wrist and pressed it into the spare cold water tank. In the cold water, she saw his hand clearly, slender and white, with neatly trimmed nails, it was a pair of pampered hands.
Comparing it with my own, my hands looked a little rough because of years of hard work. When I was young, I was an apprentice in a pharmacy and never had a rest in winter. The backs of my hands were covered with frostbite, and I didn't take good care of them, so I had a lot of scars.
It would be a shame not to take good care of his hands. She said loudly, "Arong, get the green jade ointment!"
The medicine boy inside rushed to fetch a light green medicine jar. Yang Jiyu dug out a piece of plaster and gently applied it to the burn. The plaster exuded a minty fragrance that was quite soothing. Pei Xuan's tense muscles gradually relaxed, and the pain in his hand gradually eased. The touch of the woman's fingertips became clearer and clearer.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the woman beside him. Yang Jiyu didn't seem uncomfortable with their close proximity.
Pei Xuan thought unconsciously, he is really a piece of wood.
"It might itch at night." Yang Jiyu lowered his head to bandage him, completely unaware of the subtle change in his eyes: "If you feel any discomfort, you can come back tomorrow. The shop has other medicines."
Pei Xuan suddenly withdrew his hand, "No need."
Then he gave his follower a look, and the follower understood, went up to take the medicine, and handed over the business card.
Yang Jiyu was picking up the overturned medicine jar with her head down when a gold-stamped note fell on the counter. She picked it up casually, but froze when she saw the signature.
Pei Mansion Mingshu
Yang Jiyu heard from his brother that Mingshu was Pei Xuan's courtesy name.
The bronze bells tinkled in the wind. Yang Jiyu raised his head and met Pei Xuan's meaningful gaze. A smile played at the corner of his lips, but his eyes were cold. "Miss Yang, we will meet again soon."
When the pharmacy door curtain fell, Yang Jiyu realized that his palms were full of cold sweat.
It’s really fast.
Ye Lanzhou was sitting at the door of the pharmacy and saw the whole scene, but she didn't know the two people and was confused by what she heard. She took the medicine handed to her by the pharmacist, walked out of the pharmacy and left.
When she left the pharmacy, a strong wind suddenly blew, and the windows of Xinglinchun were whistling. Pedestrians on the road quickened their pace. The wind came suddenly and was frighteningly strong, bringing a chill that pierced people's hearts.
When she reached Zhuque Street, she suddenly realized that according to the time, today should be the day when Princess Mingyi first arrived in Southern Xinjiang.
