The daily life of a charming girl who made a fortune in ancient times

Uncle Fang stayed in Xuanzhou for three days, and then went out with Uncle Lin to Jingzhou and Suizhou. Father Lin stayed at home to preside over the overall situation.

Mrs. Fang and her daughter had endless conversations every day, while Mr. Fang went to the Xuanzhou Yamen to take an errand to serve porridge at the gate of the city, and he was not idle every day.Lin Ruyu helped her father half the day and studied medicine with Guo Shenquan for half the day, so her daily schedule was full.

Even so, longing is still like a shadow, thinking about Shen Ge is almost becoming a disease.

lovesickness.

It's impossible to go on like this, Lin Ruyu frowned, raised her spirits and continued to deal with business.

Seeing the girl staring at the account book and frowning, Lin Sheng, the shopkeeper of the medicine store, thought that she was dissatisfied with the price of the medicine recorded in the account book, so he explained, "Girl, Panax notoginseng and Zhonglou are common medicinal materials for treating trauma, so the price has increased by three times." times. If it weren’t for the fact that we have cooperated with these medicine fields for many years, we would not be able to afford this price.”

In extraordinary times, price fluctuations are very normal.Lin Ruyu asked clearly about the purchase channels, and then asked about the growth of the medicinal materials in the two forests where she planted medicinal materials. She praised Lin Sheng with satisfaction, and handed him a medicine list, "Please trouble Uncle Sheng to send someone to bring the above medicinal materials Take it out according to the catty, and I will bring it back to Qingyi Lane later."

"Yes." With the girl's approval, Lin Sheng took the medicine list with both hands, and walked out briskly.The shopkeepers and stewards of the Lin family knew in their hearts that Lin Ruyu's status in the Lin family was second only to the head of the family and the mistress, and getting Lin Ruyu's approval meant that she had secured her current position.

After Lin Sheng withdrew, Lin Ruyu glanced at Yunjuan standing behind her, Yunjuan understood, and went out to boil water for the girl to make tea, but in fact she was putting bait for fishing.

In the pharmacy, a fair-faced and handsome young man approached Yunjuan courteously, "Is Miss Yunjuan going to make tea for the girl? We have hot water in the pharmacy, so we don't need to boil it now."

Yunjuan lit the ball of paper with a torch, threw it into the stove to ignite the dry firewood, and said, "This is the plum blossom snow water I brought from home."

Sure enough, it is a rich family, so they are so particular about drinking tea.Envy flashed in the eyes of the little boy, he hugged his knees and squatted next to Yunjuan, pretending to casually glance at the few balls of paper next to him, seeing the words written on them, he couldn't help moving his fingers, "Sister Yunjuan , shall I light the fire for you?"

"No need." Yunjuan refused.Xuanzhou City seems to be peaceful, but dark waves are actually surging.In the past half a month, the girl encountered poisoning once and ambushes twice.For fear of disturbing the pregnant wife, the girl told them to keep their mouths tightly shut. Yunjuan, as the big maid beside the girl, of course had to be careful in everything, even if it was fishing, the bait had to be put in full.

Therefore, when this young man came to show his hospitality, Yun Juan was extremely cautious, "Are you a fellow in the medicinal material store? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"My surname is Luan, Xingjiu. I have worked in this shop for more than a year. Sister Yunjuan came here four times with the girl last month. Every time I stood behind the stewards. My sister wore autumn fragrance last time. The dress, last time it was blue lotus color."

This little guy's eyes were affectionate and a bit shy. He counted with his fingers what kind of dress Yunjuan was wearing every time he came. Chaihuo looked at it for a long while, and then couldn't help raising his eyes to take a quick look at Yunjuan.

What's the matter?With your virtue, how dare you trick this girl?Yunjuan rolled her eyes secretly, and couldn't help but want to pick up the fire stick and whip him up.How dare you come to show off in front of your aunt with this little skill!
"Yunjuan, is the water ready?" Xianyin's voice rang through the door.

"It will be ready soon." Yunjuan replied, threw two balls of paper into the fire, and then turned around and took two sticks of firewood.In the blink of an eye, the boy grabbed all the remaining paper balls and seemed to throw them into the fire, but actually hid them in his sleeves.

Yunjuan pretended not to see anything, stuffed the firewood into the hearth, and when the water in the iron pot boiled, he lifted it into the room.The boy packed up the firewood and piled it up by the wall, then got up and walked out holding his sleeves.

By the window in the room, Lin Ruyu, Yunjuan and Xianyin could see this scene clearly.Lin Ruyu asked in a low voice, "Who is this person?"

Yunjuan said in a low voice, "His name is Luan Jiu, and he is the nephew of Liu Hu, who is in charge of the front office of the medicinal material store. He only came to work in the medicinal material store at the beginning of this year. Do you remember Miss Liu Hu? He is in charge of the four rows of medicine cabinets in the front hall by the left window. The pudgy guy with the short beard is in charge."

The Lin family has a big business, and there are tens of hundreds of people in charge and management in Xuanzhou City. Although Lin Ruyu can't name everyone, but when Yun Juan said this, she can remember who that person is. "Let Lin Feng keep a close eye on Luan Jiu to see who he connects with, and Liu Hu will also check carefully."

Ever since Taishou Zhu used the poison seven-day red to control the two brothers Zheng Yonggui and Zheng Yongfu in Hezhou, Lin Ruyu was ambushed twice in Xuanzhou City, and the medicinal materials sent to Qingyi Lane by the medicinal material store were robbed twice. There are also traces that the hall has been turned over.Obviously, Zheng Yonggui found out that the source of the poison was the Lin family, so he attacked the Lin family.

After discussing with her father, Lin Ruyu decided on this strategy of following the clues. This time, she must find out Zheng Yonggui's hidden clues in Xuanzhou City.

After Xianyin left, Lin Ruyu closed the account book and teased Yun Juan, "That Luan Jiu doesn't look bad, when he smiled at you just now, you weren't moved at all?"

Yunjuan immediately said, "Don't be moved, this servant just wants to slap him."

Lin Ruyu worked hard to learn Kung Fu every morning and evening, and the maids around her followed suit.After persisting for more than a year, Lin Ruyu obviously felt that her two maids, Yunjuan and Yuying, were more violent than before.

For example, Yunjuan, when she followed her second uncle by boat and braved the flood to Qi County to pick her up more than a year ago, she was still a weak little girl, her legs were so frightened that her legs went limp when she crossed the Yixian Gorge, so she opened her mouth and shut up now, right? To beat someone is to smoke someone.

Lin Ruyu felt that this was very good, and said with a smile, "Okay, when he gets the stolen goods, I will let you whip him first, and then send him to the Yamen."

"Thank you, miss." Yun Juan turned her wrist, "That kid is so smooth-tongued, I don't know how many little girls he has cheated with his face. This time, this servant will be doing harm to the people."

After Lin Sheng loaded the medicinal materials on the medicine list into the carriage, Lin Ruyu led the maids and nurses to go for the medicinal materials immediately, and returned to Qingyi Lane.After they left, the little guy Luan Jiu suffered from a stomachache, and ran to the latrine to unroll the three balls of paper stuffed in his sleeve pockets, then folded them neatly and stuffed them into a hidden pocket at the bottom of his robe before returning to the front hall.

Seeing his nephew came back, Liu Hu asked in a low voice, "Is your stomach feeling better?"

"It's still a little uncomfortable, but I can hold on." Luan Jiu was very obedient in front of Liu Hu.

Liu Hu saw that his nephew looked fine, so he said in a low voice, "Then stand on the side of the shelf and stare at the sellers, don't let the big manager find faults and deduct your wages, your mother is still waiting for you to take the money back to buy rice. "

In times of war, it was not easy to find a job that paid a full monthly salary.Liu Hu sent a lot of things to the chief steward before he brought his nephew into the Lin family's medicine store. There are many people who are jealous of this job.

Luan Jiu nodded obediently, "I will do my best so as not to embarrass my uncle."
