"Hey! Don't go!!"

The owner of the bamboo shop reacted quickly, and immediately chased him out, shouting: "Don't rush away, let's talk again."

Ying Bao turned her head and said: "Then you can say a price first, if it is suitable, we can talk about it later."

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth: "Twenty Wen, twenty Wen with a cover is fine, if it is less, you can't do it. You can visit wherever you want."

"That's good." Satisfied, Ying Bao went back to the bamboo shop with the shop owner to discuss the details of the custom-made bamboo box.

After leaving the bamboo shop, Ying Bao and Jiang Quan Erni went to the paper shop to buy a stack of colored paper and the Four Treasures of the Study.

After that, I went to a porcelain shop and ordered a batch of small porcelain vases of different colors and shapes.

Paper is used to write product descriptions, and small porcelain bottles are used to hold medicinal powders and pills.

Back at the shop, Yingbao cut the colored paper into pieces and wrote some introductions by color.

Letter: Golden ear, a special product of Qinchuan County, is produced in Dongchen Village, Chuanhe Town. It is a rare treasure, prolongs life, and is beautiful.

I also wrote about snow fungus and candied fruit, etc., and put the written papers aside for later use, and mounted them when the bamboo box was delivered.

Only then did Jiang Cheng and Jiang Quan understand the intention of the little cousin, and they also came to help write.

Jiang Quan had an idea and wrote a few auspicious words for his gourds.

After you write it down, attach one to each gourd.

I saw the words written on the paper: Nine turns of fortune and treasure gourd, attracting wealth and treasures, all wishes come true, carp jumps over the dragon gate, all diseases are eliminated, and five poisons are not invaded.

Then put the gourd towards the door, and sit by yourself to enjoy it.

Not to mention, a lot of people were attracted to watch in a short while.

Among them are many students from the opposite county school.

Because the Double Ninth Festival had just passed, the students were still on vacation, many of them did not go home, but played together, and some had just returned from the poetry meeting.

I wanted to see if there were any fresh fruits for sale in this specialty store, but I saw a room full of big gourds.

"Twelve taels is too expensive." Some people shook their heads and thought it was too expensive.

One of them laughed loudly: "This has a good meaning. If you don't mind Brother Huai Ming, you can buy one. It will also be a good omen next year."

The young student called Huai Ming looked embarrassed and waved his hands again and again. "It's too big to fit in the dormitory."

Another person said: "It's okay, you can buy it and make it into a bathtub."

Everyone laughed.

Several people laughed and laughed for a while, and returned to the school one after another, but one person stopped and did not leave.

This man was about 40 years old, with a thin and pale complexion. He kept staring at the gourd, as if hesitating.

"Brother, this, is this gourd really effective?" He asked.

Jiang Quan smiled and said, "That's natural."

"Then I'll buy it." The skinny man gritted his teeth and said, "However, can you make it cheaper, my brother? I, I only have seven pennies left."

Jiang Quan shook his head when he heard this: "No, no! How can anyone bargain like you? The minimum is nine taels, and you won't sell anything less."

The skinny man hesitated for a long time, then sighed: "Then I'll come back tomorrow."

Watching the thin man leave, Ying Bao frowned and stared at the second cousin. "How can you fool people at will? What if this person takes your words seriously, or uses it to blackmail you?"

Jiang Quan scratched his head and glanced at his little cousin, "Everyone knows that these are just auspicious words, how can anyone be so stupid as to believe this..."

"If something really happens to his family, if you use this gourd as a life-saving straw, do you know how it will end?"

Yingbao reprimanded the second cousin with a straight face: "Are you going to sue, or are you going to lose money to others?"

"I..." Jiang Quan was speechless.

Jiang Cheng also came over and said, "Even the fortune-tellers outside dare not say anything, but you are lucky, you dare to speak boldly."

Jiang Quan lowered his head.

After a while, the man hurried over, untied the burden he was carrying, and poured out a pile of copper coins. "This is nine pennies..."

Seeing this person coming from a distance, Jiang Quan retreated into the backyard to hide, and Erni also went to the kitchen to cook chestnuts, so only Jiang Cheng and Yingbao were left in the shop.

Ying Bao pretended to be stupid and asked in a daze, "What do you want to buy?"

Seeing that the person talking was a five or six-year-old doll, the man was stunned for a moment, pointed at the gourd and said, "I want to buy this... All diseases will be cured."

Ying Bao's eyes flashed, and he said, "Our gourd is just a mascot, and it can't really cure all diseases."

"Can't you..." The man showed a look of despair, and his shoulders slumped all of a sudden.

Ying Bao asked calmly, "Is there any sickness in the guest's house?"

The man was stunned for a while, then nodded.

Ying Bao observed this person carefully, and saw that he was wearing a yellowed plain cloth robe, with several patches of the same color on the corners of the robe, but there were still color differences, and he looked extremely down and out.

"I don't know what kind of disease it is? I have studied medical theory, so I can help you find out." Yingbao said.

The skinny man looked at Ying Bao seriously, and shook his head feebly: "It's useless."

Yingbao knew that he didn't believe her, and said seriously: "Don't underestimate people, hurry up and tell me about the patient's condition."

The skinny man hesitated for a while before saying, "My child is sick and hasn't recovered. I...I have nothing to do..."

As he spoke, he turned around and quietly tried his eyes with his sleeve.

"Can you take me to have a look?"

The reason why Yingbao helped him was because this person took her in in her previous life, and let her pretend to be his daughter and settle in the county.

The man still didn't quite believe it, but he agreed to take her back when he saw the little baby taking out a medicine box from the house.

Thus, Ying Bao and Jiang Quan Erni followed Gao Lifan to a dilapidated alley.

There are several families in the alley, and they greeted Gao Lifan when they saw Gao Lifan: "Mr. Gao is back, huh? Who are these?"

Gao Lifan: "I invited... the doctor."

Everyone was stunned, what else was there to say, Gao Lifan had already led the door open and entered the room.

The room is dark, just like the litigator's house.

A woman in a coarse dress came out, saw her husband bringing a group of people home, and asked, "Ah Lang, who are they?"

"It's for Sister Dong."

Gao Lifan took Yingbao into his daughter's room and said, "My daughter Dongmei has a strange disease, and it won't heal for a long time. You can watch it if you want."

Yingbao stepped forward, and saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl lying motionless on the bed, as if dead.

There was also a faint rancid smell in the room.

Erni pinched her nose to accompany her little cousin, and whispered, "Yingbao, what does this smell like? It smells so bad." She didn't even dare to take a breath.

Yingbao has smelled this smell before, it is the smell of human body, maybe there is also the smell of rotting wounds.

"Are you okay?" She asked the girl lying on the bed: "Where did you hurt?"

The girl slowly opened her eyes and looked at Yingbao. She was a little bit embarrassed, but her instinctive desire to survive still made her answer: "It's not good for me to bleed all the time after the miscarriage."

"Miscarriage?" Ying Bao frowned: "Can I check it for you?"

"Yeah." The girl nodded slightly.

She doesn't want to die, she wants to live well, longer and better than that person.
