Chapter 71: Inquiry

Chapter 71 Inquiry
The three big characters Shunhetang broke into her eyes, and Gu Shiba-niang felt a thud in her head.
She couldn't help turning around and ran back, when there were so many people on the street that she could not avoid the collision.
"What happened to this little girl?"
"How to walk?"
"What happened to the little lady?"
She ran across a street in one breath, only then did Gu Shiba-niang stop and help the tree on the street to catch her breath. Her heart was still beating, sweat wet her clothes.
How did she get there, how did she get there...
She bit her lower lip, and it took a long time to calm down, she thought through her thoughts, and then looked at the direction before heading to Jiutang Street again.
After passing under the big archway, without looking around, I went straight to the west and bought some gastrodia elata and the basic tools for processing medicinal materials from several herbalists. The money she brought out today was used up.
"The little lady wants to make her own medicine..." the young tool seller asked kindly, "I use it myself?"
Gu Bainiang put the cutters and brushes into the medicine frame, knelt down and got up, shaking a little. The young man hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold the medicine box, and handed her the chrysanthemum sieve under his feet.
"Thank you." Gu Shiba Niang smiled at him gratefully, and answered him, "No, it's for sale."
"Do you sell pure medicinal materials?" The boy asked, not surprising.
The people in the big place are really knowledgeable, Gu Shiba Niang smiled and nodded.
"Since the little lady knows how to make medicine, it's better to go to the shed to try..." the boy laughed.
Shedkou, also known as the medicine shed. Speaking of this medicinal material trade, it can be divided into the medicine store. Needless to say, the medicine store. The medicine store and the medicine store mainly trade in medicinal materials. It is a place that is subdivided from the medicine store and the medicine store where the raw materials are purchased in batches from the medicine store and the medicine store, and the medicine is processed.
These Gu Shiba Niang's simple understanding, if further subdivided, can also be divided into mountain products, Chinese medicine, cut medicine, pills and so on.
These are only differentiated in large state capitals. For those small places, it would be nice to have a medicine store and a medicine shop.
"Which tent to hire workers?" Gu Shiba Niang asked.
"Here, it's not far..." The young man stretched out his hand and said, "You have a great life... I heard that they are in urgent need of large quantities of shipments, but they are not enough."
The medicine shed is a real concoction business, Gu Shiba Niang nodded her head, it is worth visiting.
Following the instructions of the young man, Gu Shiba Niang came to the Dayousheng Medicine Shed, which was a three-sized store. From time to time, there were men carrying sacks in and out.
A middle-aged man with a goatee leaned on the counter while eating melon seeds while watching the guys busy.
Nowadays, Gu Shiba Niang is no longer so timid, and she stepped forward to say hello.
"What does the little lady want to buy?" The goatee immediately stood up and asked with a gentle smile that he was used to.
They are not allowed to judge people by their appearances in business. This is the most basic rule.
"That's it." Gu Shiba Niang returned the gift, "I heard that you are short of manpower, so come and have a look."
"Oh?" The goatee glanced at her. It is not uncommon for a poor daughter to come out to work. There are many girls and wives in their drug shed who do some small jobs in the preparation of medicinal materials.
"That's right, we don't need Xiao Gong..." Goatee shook his shoulders and straightened his neck.
"What do you need?" Gu Shiba Niang asked hurriedly.
Goatee smiled, listening to this little girl's tone, is it possible that she will do whatever they need?
"Are we?" He rolled his eyes, "Need a water seepage supervisor."
Liu Gong's book stated that when filing various medicines, it is necessary to obtain the method, or slightly water seepage, or slightly fire attack.
The water seepage supervisor mentioned by this goatee should be to check whether the medicinal materials that need to be purified first are qualified.
Gu Shiba Niang quickly slipped through the water purification method recorded in the book.
"No problem, I can." She nodded, full of self-belief, "Wash the foam, I can."
Goatee was a little surprised when she saw that she immediately said several ways to make water.
"I have been a master craftsman." Gu Shiba Niang added again, hurriedly putting out the basket, showing him the gastrodia elata and the pharmaceutical tools.
Is this little girl really good at making medicine? Goatee was convinced, and immediately embarrassed.
Seeing the goatee expression, Gu Shiba-niang couldn't help but laugh at herself. It seemed that she was thinking too much, and she was just joking casually.
Seeing the momentary gloom on the little girl's face, the goatee knew she understood, and was a little apologetic and a little surprised.
The little girl is very sensitive to words and colors.
A good family is not willing to let their daughter come out to work, but all those who come out are in bad family conditions.
The goatee felt a little sad.
"That's it, little lady," he thought for a while, somewhat apologetic, "I believe you are the master craftsman...but, this water seepage supervisor is very involved..."
Seeing him apologize to herself, Gu Shiba Niang was a little surprised and a little happy, which at least proved that the person in front of her respected her.
"I know, the book says that the seven-point rungong three-point cut is important." She pursed her mouth and smiled, and she was wiped out.
Seeing the little girl's eyes with a smile again, the goatee breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes fell on the little girl's hand, and he saw at a glance that this was really a pair of hands of a master craftsman.
"Wait for the lack of people, I will pay attention to you for the little lady." Goat's smile said.
Gu Shiba-niang thanked her, looked up at the shop's signboard, and asked, "Then do you accept medicinal materials?"
"Normally, we don't accept them. The medicines we give out are used for our great lives, so we don't dare to accept medicines indiscriminately." Goatee explained to her.
It seems that if you want to sell cleaned medicinal materials, I’m afraid it’s not easy. The best way out is to go to someone else’s medicine store to be a master craftsman. Otherwise, I will prescribe my own medicine... Sighed.
"Thank you uncle for listening to my question." Gu Shiba Niang greeted him and said goodbye, carrying the medicine basket.
"Oh, yes." The goatee remembered something and called her, but hesitated to speak.
"Uncle, what else do you have to order?" Gu Shiba Niang asked.
"If you want to say that you receive medicinal materials, there is a taste, but you don't pay much attention to the outside collection..." Goatee hesitated.
"What is it?" Gu Shiba Niang was busy and happy again.
"A customer ordered a lot of toad crisps..." said goatee, "Little lady, you might make toad crisps?"
Toad venom, also known as toad paste, as the name suggests, is the secretion of toad, which is poisonous.
Toad, most people will avoid it when they see it, let alone grab it to get the slurry.
"We want as much as there is." Goatee added.
"Thank you, uncle." Gu Shiba Niang smiled and thanked again.
The goatee twirled his beard, smiled and said nothing, just making money with kindness.
"It's just that it's cold, it's hard to find toad..." he said, "the little lady can go to the pond outside the city..."
"Thank you, uncle..." Gu Shiba Niang thanked again and walked out of Dayou Sheng.
On the way back, she hesitated again and again, but slowly walked to the entrance of the medicine shop, standing behind a big tree, quietly looking at Shunhetang.
The vigorous and powerful five characters of Shunhetang Shen's family on the door plaque came from the hand of the former celebrity Wei Yanqing. They have not been changed since the day they were hung up. No, they were almost replaced once again and everyone has to sell them. It, only she insisted, not hesitating to put down her figure to give up...face, worrying about holding up the centrifugal master buddy, and persuading the merchant who had to pay for the payment, the purpose was to get a smile from her husband. . . . .
I don't know how long I stood, until a snow particle hits her face and Gu Shiba-niang raised her head, only to find that the sky was overcast again.
The guise of Shunhetang was screaming in the wind, and two young men ran out with their head sleeves back and took off the guise. They seemed to notice the gaze, one of them turned to look here.
Gu Shiba Niang subconsciously concealed her figure behind the big tree, only feeling that her heart was beating fiercely, and then took a look at it, and the two boys had entered early.
She couldn't help but laughed at herself, what she was afraid of, now she is not their grandmother who was swept out, and now she has nothing to do with them.
Pedestrians on the street speeded up their pace, and the snow particles became tighter and tighter. Gu Shiba Niang tightened her collar and slowly turned her back on the medicine basket and walked towards home.
On the way, she looked back again, and Shun Hetang's big characters fell straight in her eyes, her hand could not help being clenched, and a thought suddenly flashed in her heart.
I want it
I must get it. I want to change the door plaque of Shunhetang's Shen family to become my Gu Shiba Niang's medicine hall
That's right, this is the destiny of Shunhetang. Since I saved it when the hit was hit, and now there is no me in the fate of the Shen family, then Shunhetang will naturally not be able to keep it, so it can no longer be named Shen. number
Gu Shiba Niang took a few deep breaths, her body was full of inexplicable strength, and the steps under her feet became brisk and firm.
Two carriages drove by her one after the other, and not far away, one of them hurriedly stopped, and the carriage behind immediately followed, and a tall 17-year-old girl got off the carriage behind. , Hurriedly came to the carriage in front, listened to the people in the carriage to say a few words, then turned and smiled and walked towards Gu Shiba Niang who was walking with the wind and snow on her head.
"Miss Eighteen..." she called.
Gu Shiba-niang raised her head, as if she had seen it somewhere.
The girl Shili introduced herself: "Miss Eighteen doesn't recognize me? The maidservant belongs to the third grandmother's house, and I saw it that day..."
The day she was talking about naturally refers to the day when the patriarch’s house negotiated the shop, and Gu Shiba-niang knew it.
"The third grandma said that the weather is not good, Miss, you took these things again, quickly get in the car, and send you back." The maidservant continued, and pointed behind her as she spoke.
Grandma? Gu Shiba-niang looked up and saw a carriage drifting away.
The third grandma was the woman who pointed out her sixth uncle's name in the patriarch's hall that day. Afterwards, Gu Shiba Niang asked the Cao family and realized that she turned out to be the highest-ranking person in the Gu family.
The third grandmother's name is Huang Shiying, who was born in a prominent family in Bianjing, but that was once, when Dajin raided the south, the great Zhou army was defeated, and the capital was lost. The royal family and nobles fled south. The catastrophe destroyed nearly three points. One of the distinguished family is very unhappy, and the Huang family is in this third.
The aristocratic lady who lived in the south of the Yangtze River, by chance, said about a marriage. She married an incredible husband who did fill the house. This husband is the brother of the head of the Gu family, Gu Qi, who is also the uncle of the current patriarch Gu Changchun, Gu Yu. The groom had just passed his 60th birthday.
Three years later, Gu died, and Huang Shiying, 20, became a widow. Now seven years have passed. After the death of the old patriarch, she has become the highest-ranking person in the Gu family.
A fair-minded woman, always dressed in plain clothes, does not wear pink and daisies and is not worthy of Zhu Chai, unless at the request of the clan-in-chief, she does not ask about things in the clan, she just reads and writes behind closed doors every day. There are signs of loneliness.
Speaking of her young age, no one in the family dare to look down upon her. Although someone behind her can't help chewing her tongue, she doesn't dare to show her half thoughts in front of her face. Some offense, the third grandma didn't say anything, the patriarch led the seven people in power in the clan to expel the child from Gu's family immediately, and even the whole family was expelled from the family tree.
In today's world, being expelled from the family is like being convicted of death. The result is terrible. This shocked the whole family, and no one dared to show disrespect to the widowed young third grandma.
This third grandmother has a cold temperament, never interacting with people in her clan, and she has never heard of anyone else. Gu Shiba Niang believes that she did not know that there is a figure like Gu Leyun in the family, let alone his wife and daughter .
So today this should be a different look to her? Does this have anything to do with the patriarch's hall on that day?
"Miss Eighteen, get in the car, look, the snow is getting bigger..." the maid reminded with a smile.
Gu Shiba Niang recovered from the astonishment, thanked her for anything, and followed her into the carriage.
"This is the carriage that the servants are sitting in, please wait for Miss Eighteen," the servant smiled, and handed her a stove, "Miss warms her hands..."
A blanket of flowers was laid in the carriage, and there was a swaying scented bag. As a young grandmother of the Shen family, she did not have such a good carriage in that life. It was really not going to happen at all~EbookFREE.me~ Gu Shiba Niang did not refuse. She took over the thank you, the maidservant was very kind and decent, and did not ask what you did, but introduced some of Jiankang's customs, and soon the carriage arrived at her door.
"Miss Eighteen, slow down." The maid got out of the car first, holding an umbrella and then carefully supporting her.
"Thank you," Gu Shiba Niang said.
The coachman carried her medicine basket to the door.
"I'll come." Gu Shiba Niang smiled, looking at the maidservant, "Thank you, grandma third, for me."
The maidservant smiled and said that Miss Eighteen was polite, and said that she would definitely bring it, so she didn't say more about getting in the carriage and leaving.
The snow flakes had already been withdrawn, and Gu Shiba-niang looked at the direction of the carriage going away. She heard the sound of Suosuo's footsteps behind her. Turning her head, she saw two people standing timidly from the stone on the side. .
Snow has already put a thin layer on them, and the two of them have white hoods on their heads.
