Chapter 272: Make medicine
Chapter 272 Making Medicine
“The young man only said his name was Wen Hao, but he didn’t say his last name? He didn’t say which village his relatives lived in?”
"Yes." After Luo Huiniang finished speaking, she was stunned and then exclaimed: "Hey, Xiaoyu, he must be a liar. He didn't mention his last name or address. What if he doesn't come to pay back the money? If we had known earlier, we shouldn't have advanced him the money for medical treatment and medicine."
Gu Jinli opened the three books in his book bag, shook his head and said: "No, each of these three books costs more than 500 yuan. If he doesn't redeem them, he will suffer even more losses."
After hearing this, Luo Huiniang patted her heart and said, "That's good, otherwise Third Grandpa would have lost more than two hundred coins, which can buy nearly ten kilograms of meat."
Luo Huiniang was relieved, but Gu Jinli felt more and more suspicious about this matter.
How could it be such a coincidence that a young man riding a donkey from the county town suddenly frightened the donkey and bumped into the third grandfather and the others...
“It was early in the morning, so there were a lot of people on the road,” Gu Jinli said.
Luo Huiniang nodded: "Yes, there are a lot of people entering the town, but that stinky donkey rushes towards us. Do you think it's bad luck or not?"
Gu Jinli nodded, yes, why did he just attack Third Grandpa and Luo Huiniang?
and…
"He doesn't need to borrow money from Third Grandpa. He just needs to state his name, address and the names of his relatives, and ask people from Xuanhufang to fetch his relatives. Then the money for diagnosis and medicine will be given together with the errand fees. How nice. thing, but he didn’t do it.”
Luo Huiniang was stunned for a moment after hearing this: "That's why I said he was stupid."
Gu Jinli smiled. It would be okay if he was really stupid, but he was just pretending to be stupid and had other agendas.
A frail little scholar who had just fallen off a donkey and injured his leg should have been frightened half to death. But in less than half an hour, he was able to ride a donkey back to his relatives' home, overcoming his fear so well. Gu Jinli might believe that he was a soldier, but he didn't believe that he was a weak and stupid scholar who could get out of the shadow of death so quickly.
Unless the little scholar knew early on that he would experience this calamity.
Gu Jinli looked at Luo Huiniang. She was almost fourteen years old this year and was ready for marriage. She was good-looking, with big eyes and a round face. She was very cute.
"Huiniang, if that Wen Hao comes to pay back the money, don't see him. If he interacts with you in private, don't talk to him. If anything happens, tell your parents or us immediately. You are a grown-up girl. It's not okay. "Associate too much with a young man. People in the world are evil. Even though some people are honest and friendly, they are actually very bad. You have to be careful."
Luo Huiniang was stunned when she heard this, and said with a red face: "You **** girl, what are you talking about? I will not meet that kind of idiot in private."
She likes powerful generals who are good at boxing and kung fu, not nerds.
Gu Jinli said seriously: "Many people want our tofu and spice recipes. For the sake of the recipes, they will do anything evil. We have to be careful."
Seeing that she was speaking very seriously, Luo Huiniang hurriedly said seriously: "Well, I listen to you and I will definitely not associate with that nerd."
Seeing that she had listened, Gu Jinli was very happy. He put away the book bag and said, "Leave this book bag at my house for the third grandpa. If that person comes to pay back the money, ask the third grandpa to tell him not to come forward." .”
"Okay." Luo Huiniang responded, pointing to the thing she was tinkering with and asked: "What is this? It's gray, like mud, what is it used for?"
Gu Jinli put down his book bag and continued to pound the mud in the medicine jar: "This is a scar-removing medicine made for my cousin. After the blood scabs on her face fall off, she can use it."
Originally I wanted to do this scar removal medicine for a long time, but there are many things at home, one thing after another, and it has been postponed until now.
Luo Huiniang was surprised when she heard this. She pointed to the mud-like thing in the medicine jar and said, "Can this mud really remove scars?" What an ugly scar-removing medicine. If you really put it on your face, it won't make it ugly, right?
Gu Jinli nodded: "I can't say that scars can be eliminated, but it can be done to lighten scars, especially new scars."
Old scars are more difficult to remove, but if there were sophisticated instruments in modern times to extract the ingredients of medicinal materials, she could make a medicine that completely removes scars. Now I can only try it and see how it works.
If the effect is good, this can be a drug that makes you rich.
Luo Huiniang said: "Did you see it in that medical book again? Xiaoyu, you are really amazing."
Luo Huiniang admired Gu Jinli very much. She used to be fierce and lively, and she liked to play with her, because most of the girls in the village were like Xiu Jieer, dull and not willing to fight. Only Gu Jinli was like her, daring to scold others or even take action if they disagreed.
Gu Jinli said: "That's right. I read medical books and then figured it out on my own."
You can't always use that medical book as an excuse, and that medical book doesn't teach how to make scar removal medicine.
"Huiniang, hurry up and make the spices at home!" Mrs. Chu shouted to Luo Huiniang across the yard: "There are still spices to make at home. You can go find the little fish to play with tomorrow!"
Luo Huiniang's face fell, and she complained to Gu Jinli: "It's so boring with spices." But she still got up and walked home.
Gu Jinli reminded her from behind: "Remember what I said, stay away from the nerds."
"I know." Luo Huiniang turned her back to her, raised her hand and waved. After a while, she returned to her home and struggled with bags of spices.
After Luo Huiniang left, Gu Jinli continued tinkering with her scar-removing medicine. After a while, he took out a small clay stove, found dry firewood chopped into small strips and made a fire. Then he put the mud in the medicine pot into a small copper pot. Inside, start cooking.
While cooking, add the concoction of white half-leaf grass in batches, stirring constantly to prevent the paste from sticking to the pot.
Not long after, a stinky smell wafted out from the small copper pot. The third grandmother came over holding her nose and asked: "Why is it so smelly? This medicine can really remove scars?"
Xiaoyu, this girl, has been tinkering with scar-removing medicine since she came back from town today. She first took out a few medicinal materials she bought in Fucheng and pounded them, then put very expensive pearl powder into them, and made all the medicine into foam. It turned into a paste, and her heart, liver, spleen and stomach hurt everywhere.
Pearl powder, those pearls are so expensive. She has lived her whole life, and when she was in her hometown, she followed the old man to the county town and saw a rich lady wearing a pearl hairpin.
Third Grandma always thought that pearls were used to make hairpins, but she never thought that pearls could be used as medicine?
What do the people in Fucheng Pharmacy think? How dare they smash such precious pearls into powder?
When Brother Cheng heard what Third Grandma said, he ran out and squatted by the stove, watching Gu Jinli cooking the medicine. He replied, "Of course, Third Grandma, don't you still believe in my second sister?"
His second sister is very powerful and never talks big. He likes her the most.
The third grandma smiled and said: "Believe it, why don't you believe it? Then you can accompany your second sister to slowly tinker with it."
If the scar on Le Yatou's face could be removed, let alone pearl powder, Xiaoyu could just put gold into the medicine paste.
