Interstellar female dressed as country dude
Chapter 20
After dark, Xie's courtyard in the east of the village quietly opened the door, and an unremarkable carriage was ushered in.
The carriage drove all the way to the inner courtyard and stopped, Xiaoshu stepped forward and put on the pedals, the door curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a dignified nobleman came down from the inside.
The man had a high nose and deep eyes, handsome eyebrows, long hair messily tied in a bun behind his head, without a crown.
He was wearing a snow-blue round-neck shirt with narrow sleeves that fitted him well, and he had a tall and straight figure.The corners of the mouth are slightly raised, showing a domineering heroism.
In the courtyard, a few maids were standing beside them with lanterns. Xie Huaiyu, wearing a delicate uniform with a tidy hair crown, went up to greet her in person with lanterns.
"Brother Ziyun, long time no see, don't come here without any problems." Xie Huaiyu bowed his hands solemnly to the man.
The man was slightly startled, and punched Xie Huaiyu's shoulder angrily and said, "Brother Ruishi, we haven't seen each other for a few months, and you still pretend to be so hypocritical in front of me? Does this mean you don't treat me as one of your own?" gone?"
Only then did Xie Huaiyu raise the corners of his mouth, and his eyes couldn't help revealing a bit of sincerity, shining slightly in the candlelight: "Ziyun, it's my fault. You really haven't changed at all, it's because I'm narrow-minded."
"It's good to know that I'm wrong, and I'll punish myself three cups in a while." The man said without waiting for Xie Huaiyu to lead the way, and strode towards the inner room.
After the two sat down at a banquet table, Xie Huaiyu toasted and drank three glasses of water and wine.The man turned his anger into a smile, raised his glass to Xie Huaiyu and drank it down: "Ruishi, I just returned to Beijing the day before yesterday, and as soon as I arrived in the capital, I heard Zhong Li say that you went back to the old house to keep filial piety for your grandmother for three years. Why didn't you write to me about such a big matter? It kept me up all night, and I sent someone to prepare a car early in the morning. "
The man's surname is Qi, and his name is Qinyue. He is the eldest son of Qi Dutong from the Marquis's residence in the capital. He has just returned from training with the garrison in the suburbs of Beijing.
Qi Qinyue, the second prince, and Xie Huaiyu were about the same age, they also lost their mother when they were young, and they both studied in the same government school.The three of them hit it off, cherished each other, and became close friends as soon as they came and went.
"Ziyun, you are so magnificent now, but I have come to this point, contacting me is of no benefit to you..." Xie Huaiyu smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Ruishi!" Qi Qinyue slapped the table angrily: "If you want to say such things again, my friend, don't want it!"
"Ziyun..." Xie Huaiyu took another drink, then changed the subject with a smile, "I'm already very touched that you came from a long way today, let's not talk about these unhappy topics."
With that said, Xie Huaiyu pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "I don't have anything to entertain you in this small farm now. Instead, the pheasant and hare from the mountains are grilled over charcoal fire, and the meat is charred and tender." Linen also has a special flavor, you might as well try it."
Qi Qinyue is a foodie, when he hears about delicious food, he forgets everything else.He picked up a piece of broiled pheasant and put it into the bowl unceremoniously: "Speaking of this hare, I just ate it in the county earlier today, and the miscellaneous fish tofu soup, it tastes very good. It's at your place In the Jialaifu Restaurant."
"Oh?" Xie Huaiyu raised his eyebrows: "I don't know that there are new dishes in the restaurant. But the shopkeeper Yan is an old man brought by my mother's family. He has always been capable. The restaurant has been operating very well. Good. It seems that I should call him tomorrow and give him a good reward."
After the two of them were full of wine and food, Qi Qinyue straightened his face and asked again: "Ruishi, what are you thinking in the capital? Are you really doing what your stepmother wished, in this small Wasting time in the village?"
"When you were here, your good brother was doing all kinds of things in the capital. At Changyong's banquet, I saw the posture he put on, which represented the uncle's family's friendship with the princes. He really thought he was The future earl, I don’t care about you as a big brother.”
"Hehe, it's not just that he doesn't take me seriously." Xie Huaiyu restrained his expression and smiled lightly: "I'm afraid that other people are like him. Seeing that I'm losing power, why don't you take the initiative to make friends with him? Marquis Xungui, besides you and Zhongli, which one is sincerely dating me? In the past, they were like grass on the wall, but now the situation seems to be clear. Of course, they have to associate with the person who has the most hope of inheriting the title. .”
"Alas... Zhongli's father suspects him, and he is in danger now." Qi Qinyue sighed and said, "Ruishi... I don't believe you, so I'm willing to stay here, and I didn't think of a countermeasure. I understand you, you Not a person who is willing to make wedding dresses for others. Tell me honestly, do you have other plans?"
"That's true. When I came back here, I also made progress by retreating. It's mainly because of Zhongli's affairs. What I can have is to lose a vain title of title. Zhongli's side is always a disaster." Xie Huaiyu said: "So you don't have to worry, I have my own measure. It happens to be in this mountain village, far away from those troubles in the capital, so I can relax for a while."
Only then did Qi Qinyue breathe a sigh of relief: "I knew it was impossible for you to leave in such a disgruntled manner! You and Zhong Li both have ideas, so I'm relieved. All I can do here is to get promoted quickly. , get real power in the Ministry of War."
As he spoke, he raised one foot, stepped on the stool and shook it loosely, poured himself a glass of wine, and said as if thinking of something funny: "By the way, your rumored fiancée is walking with your brother now." It's very close, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back if you know it."
The corners of Xie Huaiyu's mouth rose slightly: "Isn't that just right, lest I have to find a reason to prevaricate. If the two of them can really become a couple, it will also solve a problem for me."
After finishing speaking, he got up, let Xiaoshu walk in front with a lantern, and invited Qi Qinyue to drink with the moon by the pond in the backyard.
At this time, the night in early summer is breezy and the moon is like a mirror.The cicadas chirping and the frogs chirping by the pond are quite interesting.
In the corridor, Xie Huaiyu's calligraphy practice desk was not put away. There were a few pieces of rice paper on it, and the writing brush was placed upside down.
Qi Qinyue walked over to take a look, and on the rice paper was written half a line of poetry in beautiful block letters-there will be times when the wind and the waves cleave.
He laughed loudly, picked up the writing brush beside him, and wrote the second half of the sentence in a fluttering manner-hanging the clouds and sailing to help the sea.
After finishing writing, he picked up the brush and frowned and looked at it: "What kind of broken brush is this? It's so difficult to write? When did you switch to this kind of brush again?"
As soon as the words fell, the little tree on the side interjected angrily: "Young Master Qi, I don't know, but this is a gift from a brother named Bai. I'm afraid it's not worth a tael of silver. That brother is giving fish and giving money at the same time. The pheasants and the hares, thanks to my young master, have accepted them all."
"Little tree!" Xie Huaiyu said seriously, feeling a little annoyed inside.
He knew the virtue of his friend best, so he couldn't help but sneak a glance at Qi Qinyue next to him.
The man really had a curious look on his face, he smiled and picked up the pen and said: "No wonder Brother Ruishi stayed here and refused to leave. So there is such a wonderful person here? Then I will stay here to bother you." In a few days, I must see that brother, and I can have a good talk with Zhong Li when I go back."
Xie Huaiyu snatched the brush, put it back into the pen holder with a straight face and said, "You can do whatever you want. I don't know if I can live as long as I like, and whether I can meet people."
After finishing speaking, he yelled at Xiao Shu, who was facing a catastrophe, "All your monthly money for the past three months will be confiscated."
Xiao Shu pursed his lips with an expression on the verge of tears and said, "Master, I don't dare again."
The next day, Bai Shu woke up early in the morning and found that except for the pregnant Bai Li, the whole family of Bai Laosan went out together in neat clothes.
Bai Shu doesn't care about the movements of Bai Laosan's family.
Today is not the day to send fish, but Bai Shu caught the pangolin yesterday.So he decided to go to the county today to find a pharmacy and sell the pangolin.
Bai Shu set off, the footsteps were very fast, and in less than an hour, he arrived at the county seat.
After arriving in the county seat, he unexpectedly saw Bai Laosan's family standing in front of the stationery shop, not knowing what they were going to buy.
Bai Shu bumped into them, and when Bai Zou saw him, he immediately hid in the shop in a panic.
Although Bai Shu was a little puzzled, she didn't bother to ask what they were doing, so she went straight to the medicine shop and walked in.
There is only one pharmacy in the county, and the business is very busy.The shopkeeper has some medical skills, and he has to work part-time to see a doctor. Customers line up to see a doctor early in the morning.
After knowing Bai Shu's purpose, the store manager asked him to wait in the backyard.
Bai Zhu drank three cups of tea in the backyard, went to the toilet twice, waited almost two hours, and it was after noon before the shopkeeper came slowly.
But when he saw the pangolin in Bai Shu's hand, he simply offered a generous price of one tael of silver.
Bai Shu felt a lot of comfort in his heart, feeling that he finally did not wait in vain.
After chatting with the shopkeeper for a while, Bai Shu realized that the medicinal material business was very profitable.
The science and technology of the Great Xuan Dynasty was backward, and the existing medicinal materials were all pure natural, which was collected bit by bit by hand, and the cost was very high.Because of this, many poor people simply can't afford medical care and medicine.It was precisely because of the medicine that Yuanchen's parents sold most of the family's land, but they still couldn't be saved in the end.
The medicine of the Zerg Star is very similar to the medicine of this dynasty, and the medicine of the Zerg race is also extracted from various natural animals and plants.Like Bai Zhu, they will also be injured when they go out to fight. If there is no condition for treatment, they will even use local materials to make a simple ointment for stopping bleeding and promoting muscle growth with herbs.
However, in Zongxing, medicinal materials have already achieved large-scale industrial farming.When Bai Shu thought about it, he came up with the business of farming medicinal herbs.
Precious medicinal materials like pangolins are naturally not easy to raise.But some medicinal materials, such as dandelion, are wild flowers and weeds in the mountains.The vitality is tenacious, and it will grow when it sees the wind. If you can raise it yourself and send it, wouldn't it be another income?
So Bai Shu tentatively asked the shopkeeper if he needed other common medicinal materials.
As soon as the shopkeeper heard this, he told him several medicinal materials such as mugwort leaf, dandelion, and cardamom that were out of stock in the pharmacy for a long time.
Because these medicinal materials are cheap and they treat common diseases, ordinary people love to use them most, so they need a lot of them.
Although there are already special medicine men in the pharmacy to collect and dry them, but the number is still far from enough.If Atractylodes is provided for a certain period of time, they are naturally very welcome.
The author has something to say: the pangolin is a protected animal, it is on the verge of extinction, we must love it.But the background in the text is ancient so don't care about it.
The carriage drove all the way to the inner courtyard and stopped, Xiaoshu stepped forward and put on the pedals, the door curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a dignified nobleman came down from the inside.
The man had a high nose and deep eyes, handsome eyebrows, long hair messily tied in a bun behind his head, without a crown.

Only then did Xie Huaiyu raise the corners of his mouth, and his eyes couldn't help revealing a bit of sincerity, shining slightly in the candlelight: "Ziyun, it's my fault. You really haven't changed at all, it's because I'm narrow-minded."
"It's good to know that I'm wrong, and I'll punish myself three cups in a while." The man said without waiting for Xie Huaiyu to lead the way, and strode towards the inner room.
