Pastoral Chronicle of the Talented Talent

Chapter 126 Crock Pot and Cotton Coat

Li Min left the cloth shop full of regrets, and headed for the pawn shop. He took out a folded paper that was almost faded from his arms, walked around the whole street, and finally found the one that Lang Er mentioned. The pawnshop sent up his own pawn ticket and presented the silver, but before putting it on the counter, the face of the shopkeeper had already changed, he looked at Li Min palely, and asked in an unstable tone, "This, this Is the jar yours?"

"I picked it up at random. Shopkeeper, where is my jar?"

Li Min looked at the shopkeeper's strange expression, and couldn't help asking.

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper seemed to see a monster, walked around the counter, and ran out. Li Min thought he was going to take him to get the earthen pot, but this person grabbed his sleeve and couldn't help pushing it out. , begging for mercy while pushing, "Master, you are a noble person, so please spare the shop. Before they come, you should leave quickly! This earthen jar, you must never treat anyone again in the future." Bring it up, or you will be killed!"

"Shopkeeper, what is going on?"

Li Min didn't understand at all that the fish and earthen pot he caught in the natural river were pawned by Lang Er for 50 taels of silver. Now that he is considered rich, he should pawn the earthen pot. I came back, but the shopkeeper said such a bunch of inexplicable words.

"Shopkeeper, tell me clearly, what's the matter with that earthen pot? Why do you say that it's a murder, is it something used by the nobles in the palace?" Li Min felt that the thing didn't look like a nobleman at all, At first glance, it looks like an ordinary vase for flower arrangement, nothing too special.Maybe the workmanship is more exquisite and worth some money, but it is completely out of touch with the nobles, so how could it cause death!

"Oh, what are you talking about! I'm doing it for your own good, so hurry up and don't come here again!"

The shopkeeper pushed Li Min to the door and was about to close the door, which meant that he didn't even do business at all.

Li Min hurriedly took out a piece of broken silver from his cuff and stuffed it into the shopkeeper's hand. He rolled his eyes and said, "I know I'm causing trouble to the shopkeeper, but I just want to let you know. Why?"

The shopkeeper's face turned even worse now, he directly rejected the money, and carried Li Min out of the door, seeing Li Min's resolute gaze, he sighed, and only said, "It's related to the Xiao family, so don't ask! "

Snapped--

The next moment the door was closed in front of him, Li Min stunned, staggered back a few steps, looked up at this pawnshop again, he had never been here before, but even so, he could still see the depression of this pawnshop.Could it be that the shopkeeper is so taboo because someone from the Xiao family has already come and took away the earthen pot?

This in the end is why?

Li Min couldn't figure it out no matter what. On the way back, Li Min came back alone, and Li Qing stayed in the town, saying that he would stay overnight and then go to his own job. Not coming back.

The carriage was loaded with packs of medicine packs with the aroma of traditional Chinese medicine. Li Min glanced at it, then shrank back, hugged himself into a ball, knocked his chin on his knees, stared blankly at the distance, and What echoed was the words of the shopkeeper.

The crock has a relationship with the Xiao family.Could this incident have something to do with the corpses of the Xiao family that happened earlier?And the killer of the Shentu family also turned into a cold corpse.He has never thought about it, and even seems to have missed it on purpose, why the masters of these two families turned into cold corpses. If they killed each other, it is absolutely impossible for them to die so cleanly.

Could it be that there are masters lurking in the dark?It's just that Li Min really can't figure it out. Mushui Village is just a poor village where even hunting is impossible. Those masters really have no reason to hide here.

Even Zhuge Kongming would not live in seclusion in such a remote place, and he knew to find a place with a lot of information to show off his talents so that Uncle Liu Huang would visit Maolu three times, so the existence of this expert is very questionable.

Li Min thought all the way, but didn't come up with a clue.

Back in the courtyard, I saw that Nianzu and Li'er were having fun, Min Jian was chopping firewood, and there were a few big fish in the water tank in the kitchen.

Li Min carried the three major herbs in the carriage into the yard, returned the coachman's money, and then went into the yard.

Nianzu held Li'er in his arms, and ran over lightly. This tall and big boy really didn't look like a fool. His seemingly rough hands were placed on Li'er's body, and every stroke was light. Li Min only took a cursory look, and seeing Li'er smiling in Nian Zu's arms with a childish mouth with a toothless mouth, Li Min secretly found it inconceivable.

When he was in modern times, he heard that children with autism had a very high attainment in philosophy.So is it true that a fool like Nianzu also has a natural talent for taking care of babies?

Li Min put all the herbs in the house, tidied up a room by himself, and put the three piles of herbs.The doctor said that these medicines should not be damp or wet, and he also explained the convenience of decocting a bunch of medicines. Li Min remembered it clearly, so naturally he dared not delay Nianzu's treatment.

Seeing that Min Jian finished chopping firewood and was going to clean up the big fish, Li Min walked forward with a smile and asked shyly, "Brother Min, do you know how to make medicine?"

"You mean to make medicine for Nianzu?" Min Jian turned his head, his eyes turned wide, and he glared at Nianzu who was holding the child, and he didn't buy Li Min's smiling face at all.

"You, what's wrong with you?" Li Min asked in surprise, pointing to the half of Min Jian's black face.I came in in a hurry just now, I didn't see clearly, why did my face hurt like this?

"Hmph! That fool didn't do it! He was uneasy last night, thanks to my precautions and restrained him! During the day today, he insisted on hugging Li'er, but I didn't allow it... I didn't do it because of Li'er." , Who knew that this fool would take the lead!" Min Jian grinned and spoke for a while, half of his cheeks were painful.What kind of effort did this idiot use? Just now, when he took a photo in the water, his face was not swollen at all, but it was bruised.If it wasn't covered by a thick beard, the bruise would be more clear.

"I think Nianzu seems to be good at taking care of children." Li Min turned his head and saw Nianzu chattering, as if responding to Li'er, he couldn't help grinning.

"You mean, he deserved to hit me!" Min Jian snorted heavily, and was beaten by a fool, he was very embarrassed.Besides, he was also kind, how could Min'er say that.

"No way. I just think that to make Nianzu get better soon, we should give him more medicine!"

Li Min put a large medicine bag wrapped in paper into Min Jian's hand, and smiled and showed a pair of canine teeth, "Brother Min, do you know how to decoct medicine? I told you to do the steps. Let's read it together." Let Zu return to normal!"

"You said, we're together?" Min Jian's eyes lit up immediately after hearing the word "we", and he nodded immediately, "I'm not very good at decocting medicine, but with Miner here, the medicine must be very good Fried."

Li Min couldn't help but smile when he heard that, even an honest man like Min Jian would lie, listen, he has to be here.Thinking of Min Jian's hobbies, the antipathy in Li Min's heart suddenly became less intense.Although brotherhood is not the same as the relationship between a man and a woman, there is one thing in common, feelings, the most sincere feelings.

If Min Jian doesn't mention anything, Li Min thinks it's a good thing to treat him like an elder brother.What's more, his house will be opened soon, so it's good to use this time to test Xia Minjian.If he is willing to stop at the step of brotherhood, let him live in together.If he is unwilling, then living together will only make things more troublesome.

Thinking deeper, Li Min felt that Min Jian would marry a wife sooner or later. Even if he had that hobby, the ancients had a serious thought of passing on the family line, and Min Jian would not violate it.When Min Jian married his wife, he must have less thoughts in this regard.If I can also meet a good... a fair lady as my wife, it is worthwhile to travel through time, she is really a sweet and genuine beauty.

It took two hours to decoct the herbs for Nianzu. These herbs need to be soaked and softened before they can be decocted.This is the first time for Li Min. Although he listened to the doctor's instructions, the actual operation is a bit different. Besides, for Min Jian, a strong man who does not take side effects all year round, it is a bit worse. After two hours of tossing inside, the large bag of herbs was finally fried into two large bowls of black medicinal soup.

"Min'er, why do I feel that when people take medicine, they have never taken so much. Why did you boil this medicine into two large bowls? Nianzu is not a donkey, and donkeys can't drink so much!" Min Jian Shao shook his head, looking at Li Min very puzzled.

Li Min waved his hands disapprovingly, and replied thoughtfully, "I can't drink these medicines, so I can drink them tomorrow."

"The doctor gave Nianzu medicine for seven days, right? The seven packs of medicine are decocted once a day. You let Nianzu drink the leftovers tomorrow, so what about tomorrow?"

Hearing Min Jian's words, Li Min was in a dilemma.

He thought for a while and replied, "Then why don't I sleep with Nianzu at night, wake him up in the middle of the night and ask him to drink the medicine, after all, he can drink up the two bowls of medicine!" Li'er would feed milk once in the middle of the night, When Li'er was feeding the milk, he warmed Nianzu's medicine together, woke them up, and drank together.Li Min made up his mind and nodded in agreement.

Min Jian didn't quite understand either. After hearing this, Han Han nodded, "Min'er is right."

Li Min concluded solemnly, "With today's lesson, we will learn tomorrow. When decocting medicine, we should use less water. Tomorrow, we will decoct a small bowl of medicine for Nianzu to drink." The doctor said, decoct a small bowl of medicine That's it, Li Min understood today, this is the essence.Absorb the essence of this big bag of herbs and make it into a small bowl, and only then can you heal the disease.

After taking out all the medicines, Min Jian went to clean up the fish. Li Min felt that it was not good for Nianzu to drink medicine on an empty stomach, so he turned around and deep-fried the steamed buns, put them into a bowl, and then He took it out of the kitchen and headed for the house, intending to let ancestor Nian eat something, weigh his stomach and drink medicine.

Li Min had just entered the room with the bowl in hand when he saw Nianzu swallowing the last bowl of medicine.

"Nianzu, why did you drink the medicine without eating?" Li Min stepped forward to take a look, the medicine bowl had already bottomed out, Nianzu's lips were stained with black medicine, and he raised his face , Smiling silly at him.

"No, I didn't say that this medicine was fried for you, so why did you drink it. You are not afraid of drinking the wrong medicine, you!" Li Min slapped his head, and suddenly realized that the situation did not seem to be like this go well.How could a fool drink medicine so obediently...

"Wow... Bitter... Bitter... Bitter..."

At this time, Nianzu was sticking out his tongue and making a lot of noise. When he cried, even Li'er who was lying on the bed beside him began to cry too.

"I, I'm going to get the candy!"

Li Min ran out quickly, came back halfway through the run, picked up Li'er, and chanted as he walked, "Li'er is hungry, I went to feed Li'er, and after feeding, I will give Nianzu sugar. Yes, breastfeed first."

Watching Li Min's hasty pace of leaving, Nianzu stopped shouting slowly, he pinched out the soaked cotton padded jacket from under the bed, it exuded a strong smell of herbs, squeezed it with his hand, and the medicine juice flowed from it. flow down from above.Nian Zu raised the padded coat soaked in the medicine juice in his hand, shook his head and sighed, "It should be dried on the top of the tree on the back mountain, and the medicine will no longer smell. However, if Min'er forces me to drink the medicine tomorrow, What should I do?"

Li'er fell asleep when he was full, and Li Min hurriedly dried the wet diapers on the stove, only to realize that he hadn't brought candy for Nianzu, so he put down his work, ran into the house, and found After walking around, I suddenly realized that when I went to the town, I didn't buy any sugar at all.

Li Min sighed deeply, this day is really fulfilling.

Fortunately, Nianzu stopped making trouble, but obediently entered the house and went to bed with Li'er.Li Min began to think about the three pages of medicinal herbs that the doctor opened, took the branches on the ground and wrote them down one by one, and asked Min Jian one by one, and finally annoyed Min Jian, "Min'er, these medicinal herbs are not the same. It calms the nerves! I think Nianzu fell asleep after drinking the medicine, maybe it was because of the quarrel with me last night, he was so lethargic, that's why he took a rest early."

After hearing this, Li Min felt that it made some sense, and was about to say something more, when he looked at Shang Minjian curiously and probingly, "Min'er, have you memorized all the medicine prescribed by the doctor?"

"It's not troublesome to remember, you can usually remember it after reading it once." Li Min disagreed.

Min Jian slapped his thigh, as if he had won a treasure, and said happily, "It happens that the patriarch lacks a bookkeeper, I think you can do it, Min'er!"

"Is the fish cooked? I seem to smell the aroma." Li Min stood up immediately, and hurried to the side room before Min Jian finished speaking, "I'm going to ask Nianzu to eat, Brother Min, you put The fish comes out of the pan."

"Hey Min'er, are you going or not?" Min Jian shouted behind him, Li Min had already entered the side room and closed the door.

Calling Nianzu up to eat fish in another room, Li Min suddenly found that he was wearing a thin long gown, "Where did your cotton padded clothes go?" Li Min asked strangely.

Nianzu yawned, his soft and crystal mouth shrunk, and he opened his ignorant eyes, looking at Li Min inexplicably.

"I mean where did your cotton coat go!" Li Min yelled.Nianzu's cotton coat, but Li Bian made it for himself at the beginning, and later made a warmer one, Li Min put that one on for Nianzu, but now it's gone!

"Wow, Min'er... Bitter... Bitter... Bitter..."

Nianzu's tightly pursed thin lips parted suddenly, crying and screaming.

Li Min stroked his forehead with a headache, next time, he will never forget to buy candy for Nianzu.He will go to the town tomorrow to buy candy for Nianzu.
