Chapter 434: The Beautiful and Charming Young Husband (9)
The town is not very big, but it can maintain the most basic living conditions. It is much better than the village, at least it has a large population and a wide variety of things.

If you want to go to the city, you can only rent a carriage, and it will take a day and a night to get there because it is really far.

After all, this place is remote, and the mountains behind the village are farther away, which is the territory of other countries. Otherwise, Lu Mingfei would not have brought them here, because it is too far from home.

The original owner was familiar with the layout of the town, so Lin Jinyu only needed to follow the original owner's memory.

Lu Mingfei followed her obediently. He was unfamiliar with the place, and if he got lost, he would be doomed. So he followed someone he was familiar with, so that he could ensure his personal safety.

The two first went to the herbal medicine shop, which usually bought herbs. When they arrived, there were already several people waiting there with herbs on their backs. It seemed that this shop had been buying herbs for a long time, which was also a way for some poor people to make money.

When it was Lin Jinyu's turn, the medicine boy who was collecting the herbs was a little surprised, because these herbs were put together neatly. At first glance, they were very pleasing to the eye.

Moreover, there were no weeds mixed in with these herbs. They were exactly what they were. Some herbs looked very similar, but she did not confuse them.

"Does this lady know anything about medicine?" the medicine boy couldn't help but ask.

"Of course there are. This is Isatis root, which has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. This is Platycodon grandiflorum, and this is Plantain..." She talked incessantly, and her confident and ostentatious look attracted the attention of many passers-by.

Lu Mingfei was now behind her, looking at her back with a complicated expression.

She seemed to be very knowledgeable, but why... her family was so poor? And she usually spoke very little, so I always thought she was a cold person.

But judging from her performance, maybe it wasn't what he thought. It was just that she didn't show her true self, which made people feel that she was not easy to get along with.

The medicine boy stared at her explanation in amazement, and admired her in his heart. His face was even more respectful, "This young lady knows a lot. I admire you."

Knowing so much about medicine, he must not be an ordinary person. Judging from the way he is dressed, he must have fallen into trouble. Otherwise, with such great abilities, why doesn't he open a clinic?

Thinking of this, she became even more respectful. She might have deducted some money from other herbalists before, but she would never dare to do so in front of her. After all, no one dared to offend a person with power.

"Here, here are your one hundred and ten coins. Take them."

Because the medicinal materials are not expensive, I can't buy them for much. It's just that there are more quantities and more varieties, otherwise I wouldn't have this hundred coins.

Lin Jinyu took it with a smile and took a look at the medicine boy's face. "The weather has been hot recently, and the liver fire is quite strong, which makes you irritable. If possible, try to reduce the heat."

The pharmacist's eyes widened. How did the other party know that she had a bad temper recently? Did she lose her temper just now and didn't want to be discovered? Of course not. If she lost her temper with the customer, the shopkeeper would come up and beat her.

"Thank you, Miss. Here you go. If you need more herbs next time, you can come to our place."

"it is good!"

After working for an entire afternoon, I earned a hundred coins, which was pure profit. If I could earn a hundred coins every day, I would have a lot of money in a year.

But it was just a thought. After all, when winter comes, many medicinal herbs cannot be found. If you go deep into the mountains, you may encounter many dangers.

It is true that danger and opportunity coexist, but the prerequisite is that you have the ability to protect yourself.

After leaving the herbal medicine shop, Lin Jinyu took Lu Mingfei straight to the wonton shop not far away. A bowl of wontons cost seven cents, so she ordered two bowls. It was actually quite expensive, but the ingredients were quite generous.

This kind of snack stall has always been delicious and plentiful, but at this price, not everyone would choose to eat there.

Some people think that they can just as well fill their stomachs by spending three cents to buy a big steamed bun, except that it will not contain meat.

Lu Mingfei's stomach was growling with hunger, so he sat there obediently, waiting for the wontons to be served.

The first bowl that the store brought was naturally placed in front of Lin Jinyu. But she didn't eat it, but pushed it in front of Lu Mingfei.

"Eat, you've been hungry for so long."

"Thank you." He took it obediently without refusing. He picked up the spoon, scooped up a wonton, blew on it, and then took a bite.

How long has it been since he last had wontons? It seems that the last time he ate wontons was when his father personally made them for him. And it seems to have been more than ten years since the last time?
After a while, the second bowl of wontons came up.

The skin is thin and the filling is large. There are fifteen wontons in total. If you drink the remaining soup, you will be quite full.

If passers-by observe carefully, they can find that the man and woman at this table are eating in a rather elegant manner. It is hard to describe their nobleness, which makes the snack stand look more noble.

Lin Jinyu's movements were fast, but her eating movements were not rough, they just looked heroic.

Lu Mingfei's movements were slower, he chewed his food carefully, and because of his good looks, he gave people the impression of being a feast for the eyes.

After eating a bowl of hot wontons, I felt like I was alive again. Wontons don’t taste very good, but this ordinary taste is also unforgettable when you are hungry.

"Are you full?"

Lu Mingfei looked down at the remaining soup in the bowl and couldn't help blushing. He actually finished all of them, fifteen wontons, not a single one left.

In order to maintain their figure, many young masters from wealthy families would not eat too much. They would put down their chopsticks when they had enough.

But he ate it all, maybe because he hadn't had a good life these days, or maybe because he was hungry for too long in the morning. But compared to Lin Jinyu who walked all the way here, he didn't suffer much.

"I'm full." He lowered his head, a little embarrassed.

Lin Jinyu didn't notice anything. She just picked up the backpack and said, "Let's go and buy some food. If we don't buy some food, we can only dig wild vegetables in the future."

The little bit of land planted by the original owner was not enough to eat, and the crops were sparse, which really fits the saying "grass is lush, but bean sprouts are sparse."

The money earned from selling herbs and some family savings were enough to cover the expenses of this shopping trip.

The most important thing is rice. She doesn’t like brown rice very much, so she spends quite a lot on buying refined grains.

Secondly, I wanted to buy some clothes, but after thinking about it, I decided not to because I didn’t have enough money.
