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

Chapter 43 Fenghualou's Crab Roe Bun

After listening to his daughter's words, the tired Mrs. Fang immediately revived. He clasped his hands together and sincerely thanked the Bodhisattva. Believers will also fast every month and go to Xuanzhou Guanyin Temple to offer incense to your old man..."

Following her mother's words, Lin Ruyu seemed to hear the sound of money rushing out of the house.However, Lin Ruyu stayed in the Avalokitesvara Temple in the two disasters before and after. It is true that she was protected by the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, who saved her from the wind and rain.

Mrs. Fang hugged her daughter happily after talking about it for a while, and then became worried, "Your second uncle always likes to make a show of himself. He will make a big fuss if he comes to find us in person. I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble. However, he doesn't know Where are we, we can't find our whereabouts without making some noise..."

Lin Ruyu took over, "So, we have to make full preparations before Second Uncle arrives, and when his boat arrives, we have to ensure that we can board the boat safely and smoothly."

"Jiaojiao is right. It's past time. Let's go to bed first and figure out a solution tomorrow." Having said that, Fang's eyes were wide open and he didn't feel sleepy at all.

In the middle of the night, it began to rain again outside.The house also began to leak rain, but fortunately the roof where the bed was placed did not leak.Fang covered her daughter with a quilt, and got up to catch the rainwater with wooden basins, broken buckets, and coarse drinking bowls.The rustling sound outside and the rhythmic tick-tock sound inside gave birth to Fang's drowsiness. She opened her mouth and yawned, and fell asleep next to her daughter.

The next day after everyone got up early and had dinner, Mrs. Fang covered the wound on her forehead with a forehead wipe made by her daughter last night, sat upright in the main room, met with the three brothers of the Gao family, promised 200 taels of dart silver, and paid a deposit of ten taels in advance.

The wife of a rich family in Xuanzhou is plainly dressed and has no gold or silver jewelry on her head, but her speech and demeanor are more than ten times more dignified than the eldest wife of the richest Mr. Zhou's family in Hao Lianzhai. After believing Shen Ge's words, he wished to confess Fang as the God of Wealth.

Whether they can live a good life after the flood depends entirely on this female God of Wealth.

Gao Erhu, the most talkative among the three brothers, stood up after kowtowing, and was about to say a few words, when he looked up and saw the little girl with a birthmark face standing beside Fang, he was so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground again.

It is true that Fang is the God of Wealth, but the daughter of the God of Wealth must have been reincarnated from an evil ghost...

I didn't see that there was a poke on her face from Lord Yan himself!
After the three tigers of the Gao family retired, Mrs. Fang told everyone that the second uncle of the Lin family would bring a boat to find them within ten days.When little Ah Heng heard that his second uncle was coming, he jumped up and down happily. Uncle Ma, Shengzi and Dafu also smiled happily.

Seeing Lin Ruyu's calm face, Shen Ge knew that she had told Fang the news.Although Lin Ruyu's dream is true, her life is not necessarily reliable.For example, the flood was ten days earlier, so it is not known whether the second uncle of the Lin family can arrive within ten days.

Even if the second uncle of the Lin family doesn't come, the merchant ships and tank boats from upstream and downstream should come when the water flow stabilizes.As long as there is a big ship passing by, they can find a way to get on board.

Shen Ge slightly turned his left arm, whose wound was beginning to heal. The wound medicine and 500 taels of silver notes that Lin Ruyu had given him were still pressed under the stones at the Hao Lianzhai Wharf. Before boarding the boat, he must take the burden back.

Mrs. Fang discussed with Uncle Ma, "We are waiting for the boat for the past few days. First, we need to ensure three meals a day, and second, we need to make some arrangements so that no one will rush into the east courtyard after entering the temple and snatch things from our courtyard. Three Uncle, how do you think we should arrange it?"

Uncle Ma was also thinking about these things, "Since we only stay for ten days, we don't need to venture into the village to find firewood, rice, oil and salt. The existing rice, noodles and vegetables in the yard can last for ten days if we dig some mountain treasures. From now on, I , Brother Gao, Shen Ge, and Dafu will take turns guarding the courtyard, with at least two people in each class..."

As soon as the arrangement was made, Mrs. Fang was in charge of cooking, Xiao Aheng mowed grass from the temple to feed the rabbits, and the others took turns guarding, or went out to pick mountain delicacies and chop firewood.Shen Ge, who was injured, did not go out of the temple, and recuperated and guarded the hospital in the east courtyard.

Lin Ruyu followed Ma Sanshu, Dafu, Shengzi and Gao Sanhu out of the temple on the grounds of picking herbs.Finding bamboo shoots, picking mushrooms, chopping firewood, and digging herbs should be done quickly while it is raining.In addition to anti-dysentery, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic herbs, plants such as nettle grass, dripping Guanyin, and sumac are also the targets of Lin Ruyu's search.

The juices of these plants are matched in a certain proportion and sprayed on human skin, which will soon produce a tingling feeling, which is maddening.If it is poured into the eyes, mouth and nose, the effect will be more obvious.

This is the best help Lin Ruyu can think of to defend himself and retreat from the enemy.

Drilling under a Dripping Avalokitesvara tree as tall as a person, Lin Ruyu cut through the stem of the Dripping Avalokitesvara with a dagger, passed the white juice from the neck through the bamboo tube, and flowed into the hanging gourd, then turned around and scratched a Dripping Avalokitesvara tree.

"Second sister—" Ma Sanshu, who was digging bamboo shoots, turned his head and couldn't see Lin Ruyu, so he hurriedly shouted.

"I'm here." Lin Ruyu stood up and shook her arms.

"Don't go far, don't slide downhill and fall." Uncle Ma warned, and asked Dafu, who hadn't found any bamboo shoots, to follow Lin Ruyu.

"Brother, don't move, the juice from these big leaves is poisonous." Seeing Dafu walking in carelessly, Lin Ruyu quickly called him, took out the gloves sewn last night from the back basket, put them on for Dafu, and stuffed him another Take the sickle for mowing the grass, "Brother, help me cut the nettles over there. You can't pick them off with gloves, and you can't let the nettle juice touch the skin."

"Oh." Dafu, who was wearing gloves, clenched his fists in novelty, lifted his back basket and walked towards the piece of nettle that Lin Ruyu pointed at.

Lin Ruyu saw that he was cutting well, so she put down her heart and continued to collect the juice of Dripping Avalokitesvara.

"Second sister."

"Well, what's the matter?" After a while, Lin Ruyu got out from under the Dripping Avalokitesvara when she heard Dafu calling her, and walked towards Dafu who was holding a sickle and standing beside the nettles in a daze.

When they got closer, Lin Ruyu was also stunned.

There is a stone crevice more than half a foot deep under this nettle slope, and there is an old man with gray hair lying on his side in the crevice.The silk clothes worn by the old man were torn and soaked, and the rain mixed with blood flowed down from his legs, forming a shocking line on the pale stone.

A foot below the blood line, a man in gray with a dagger stuck in his back was lying on the ground.Seeing that the clothes of the gray-clothed man were very similar to those who ambushed and killed An Ziyuan, Lin Ruyu's eyes fell on the bamboo hairpin on his head.

At this moment, the old man in the crack of the stone suddenly opened his eyes like a lion, and turned his head to look exactly in the direction where Lin Ruyu and Dafu were standing.

Although this person was injured and lying in the crevice of the stone, his gaze was still full of oppression.Lin Ruyu clenched the dagger tightly, raised her arm to block Dafu and took a step back.

After seeing clearly that there were two dolls standing on the slope, the old man, who was at the end of his strength, changed suddenly.He struggled to turn over and lay on his back in the crevice of the stone, his eyes seemed to see the distance through the rain curtain as thin as a cow's hair, and he murmured, "Fenghua Building's...crab roe buns, the old man can't wait..."

Lin Ruyu's beautiful eyes widened in an instant, and she took a step forward and asked uncertainly, "What did you just say... Fenghualou's crab roe buns?!!!"
