Pastoral lucky girl's counterattack

Chapter 3
The reflection on the water no longer showed the handsome little man, only a rough boy in gray clothes. (The clothes were originally white, but after being soaked in lotus pond water, they turned gray.) Pack up and continue on your journey.

The sun began to set in the west, about four o'clock in the afternoon.Finally came across another pier.

Next to the pier stands a large stone tablet with the inscription "He'an Town".

This is a real marina where several passenger boats are parked.There is also a large cargo ship that is unloading at this time.

Qiu Laifu rowed the bamboo raft to a special parking place, just tied the rope, and brought the two bundles of herbs to the shore.

Someone reached out to her.I don't know why.

The man said, "There is a fee here, and you have to pay one penny." The man's clothes looked a bit like a government servant in an ancient costume film.

I can't compete with him, but I don't have any money, so I can only pretend to be pitiful.

Hey, in fact, I am really pitiful.

"Uncle, I don't have any money now, wait a minute, I'll have money when I send this herb to the pharmacy, and I'll give it to you when I come back later. Okay?"

The yamen servant looked her up and down, her hair was tied with grass, her face was black and yellow, and her clothes were wrinkled and dirty.Fight with beggars.He sighed, "Okay, give it to me when you come back."

Turn around and tie the rope on Qiu Laifu's bamboo raft to another pillar.

This should be his other way of recording.

Qiu Laifu looked at him a few more times and said in his heart that there are still good people in this world.

After inquiring, Qiu Laifu brought two bundles of herbal medicines to Baoantang Pharmacy in He'an Town.

In fact, there are other pharmacies in this town, but Baoan Tang has a better reputation.

In the security hall at this moment, there is only one Xiao Er, who is picking up medicine, sorting out the medicine cabinet.Refill an empty medicine cabinet with the appropriate ingredients.

An old man with gray hair sat behind the consultation table, looking at a book in his hand.

As soon as Qiu Laifu entered, both of them turned to look at her.

Xiao Er came out from behind the counter when he saw what she was holding in her hand, and said with a smile, "Is the boy going to sell herbal medicine? Let Mr. Li show it to you first."

As he spoke, he motioned for her to show the old man.

Qiu Laifu brought the herbs to the old man. "Doctor Li help me look, I picked these today, this is wormwood, this is Motherwort.

Wormwood can warm the meridians to stop bleeding, dispel cold and relieve pain.External use can also dispel dampness and relieve itching.

Motherwort is the bane of women's diseases.You always look at it. "In order to sell these two bundles of grass, Qiu Laifu went so far as to fight with the ax in front of the experts.

Dr. Li stroked the sparse gray beard under his chin, smiled and nodded.

Pulling the wormwood and motherwort with his hands, he said, "It's wormwood and motherwort, not weeds. Take it, Xiaozhu. The wormwood is ten cents a catty, and the motherwort is fifteen cents a catty." The following words are Said to the drug boy.

Yaotong went to the back hall to get the scale, and weighed it in front of Qiu Laifu. "6 catties of wormwood and 8 taels, and 3 catties of motherwort and 6 taels."

Qiu Laifu listened to Xiao Er's report, and silently calculated in his heart that he deserved 120 coins.Want to buy a pocket knife or dagger for self-defense, not sure if it is enough?

The drug boy pulled a few times on the abacus and got the result. "68 articles on wormwood plus 54 articles on Motherwort, making a total of 120 articles."

Yaotong quickly counted the copper coins, put them into a gray linen purse, and handed it to Qiu Laifu.

Qiu Laifu took the purse and thanked Old Doctor Li, and asked him about the location of the blacksmith shop.Thank you again and leave for the blacksmith shop.

The blacksmith's shop is very close to the pier, and it is at the end of the street, which is relatively remote.There is a long table in front of the shop, on which are various finished iron products.

Qiu Laifu looked around and saw that they were all farm tools.I didn't have the pocket knife or dagger I wanted.

Just wanted to ask the blacksmith.The blacksmith saw her coming towards him now.

He stopped what he was doing.He asked enthusiastically, "What do you want to buy, kid? Or do you want to order it?"

There was no look of contempt for the child on his face.Qiu Laifu was very satisfied with his attitude.

So I told him what I wanted to buy and asked the price.The blacksmith turned back into the shop and came out for a while, holding a knife and a dagger in his hand.

"This kind of knife is 80 Wen, and this dagger is 120 Wen." The blacksmith put the knife and dagger in front of Qiu Laifu and asked her to choose.

Because of the lack of money in his hand, Qiu Laifu was forced to choose a small knife. After trying the knife, the edge was very sharp and he was satisfied. He also ordered a wooden scabbard, which cost a total of 85 cash.

After paying the money and preparing to leave, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a small rusty iron pot in the corner of the shop.

So he pointed to the small iron pot and asked the blacksmith, "Can you sell that small pot to me?"

"That pot can't be used and it will leak. If you want to buy a pot, I have a new one here. It only costs 100 Wen."

After hearing the blacksmith's introduction, Qiu Laifu left disappointed.Not far away, there was a bun seller who asked the price for three Wen each. He bought three and asked the boss to wrap them up one by one. He planned to eat them in three meals.

When I got the buns, I couldn't wait to eat them first.I have to say that the boss is very honest, and the bun is as big as half of her face.

The vegetables inside the stuffed buns were fried with oil, and the aroma of the vegetables was so tangy that Qiu Laifu's saliva drooled when he bit into it.

What she didn't know was that the smell of the steamed stuffed bun drew her a little tail.

Little Tail watched her drooling as she ate the buns.He didn't catch up with her to ask for it, so he followed her neither far nor near.

Qiu Laifu walked back while eating, passing by a pottery place and bought another small crock with a lid.

Crock pots are cheap at 8 renminbi each, and they can hold water and can also be used instead of pots.It's just fragile, so use it with care.

Qiu Laifu put the buns he bought into the jar, covered the lid, held the jar with both hands, and went back to the pier where the bamboo raft was docked.

Put the pot on the bamboo raft, and saw the uncle in the government uniform coming over.She took the initiative to say hello, "Uncle has worked hard, this is my management fee."

Handed him a copper coin, thanked him again, and went to untie the rope on the pier.

He untied the rope of the bamboo raft and put it in a ball. When he got on the bamboo raft, he found a child squatting beside the earthen pot.

I was taken aback because I remembered that there was no one on the bamboo raft when the crock was placed.

And just in the middle of paying the money and reconciling the rope.The child ran up, and I had to praise him for being quick.

Now I have to solve the child's problem first, squatting down next to the child, looking at him and asking, "Little brother, why are you here? The adults of your family? Why did you let you run around by yourself."

The child didn't answer her, but stared at her with his big watery eyes, pointed to the earthen jar, and said, "Steamed stuffed bun."

Uh, this is her bun. Seeing how pitiful he is, let him have some.He opened the lid and took out a steamed stuffed bun, opened it, took half and handed it to him, and put the other half into the jar to cover it.

The child happily took half of the bun, took a bite impatiently, chewed a few times quickly, swallowed it, and took another big bite.

Seeing that he was eating in such a hurry, no matter how many questions Qiu Laifu had, he could only ask him after he finished eating.It won't take a while to watch him gobble it up like that.
