"Crack!"

The sound of glass falling to the floor and breaking came from the pharmacy. Immediately afterwards, Granny Gu and Caiju, Dongli saw Gu Jian coming out of the pharmacy with a disgraced face.

Grandma Gu: "The potion hasn't been made yet?"

Gu Jian shook his head, a little downcast: "No."

It was rare to see my brother showing such emotions, and Grandma Gu was a little funny.

Gu Jian frowned and said: "I obviously followed the process Daohua said, so why can't I do it?"

The potion made by Daohua is colorless, odorless and transparent. The best one he made was also light pink and had a pungent smell.

Grandma Gu signaled Caiju to clean up.

Caiju entered the pharmacy and saw that almost all the glassware that Daohua brought had been smashed. She couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. When she finished packing and came out, Gu Jian said.

"Well, find a time to go to Ningmen Mansion and ask Yang Xiaozi to send you another set. No, I won't believe it if you send three sets. What the apprentice can do, I, the master, can't do it.

!"

After saying that, he thought for a while, got up and went back to his room. He came out with a gold pen and two bottles of potion, and handed them to Dong Li: "Go and give this to Xiao Wu yourself."

Dong Li took the things and saw that the two bottles were only one-third full of potions. He hesitated and said: "Old man, do you think you should invite Miss Yan to come over and make some more potions?"

Miss Yan returned to Fucheng yesterday, and the young prince also went with her.

Hearing this, Gu Jian immediately said angrily: "It's all my fault that Mr. Yang is too stingy. Even though Daohua came with two more bottles of potion, he didn't want to give me one, so he left me this little."

Grandma Gu looked over sideways and said, "Humph, I don't know who overestimated my ability yesterday and said he could match it? If you really want it, can Yang boy give it to you? The boss is no longer a junior, so don't put the responsibility on the child.

On my body."

Gu Jian looked stern, watching his apprentice prepare the potion. He really thought it was very simple. How could he, a master of medicine, prepare it?

Well, I really don’t deserve it.

Mainly because of the burette, he couldn't control the dosage, and it was annoying to death.

Seeing that the two old masters had strayed away from the topic, Dongli had no choice but to bring it back up: "How about I invite Miss Yan now?"

Gu Jian waved his hand: "What reason did you use to invite her over? That girl is very smart. I brought out a copy of the Tao Te Ching before, and she asked me in a subtle way if I knew the Eight Kings. Now that you are here,

Humph, maybe she’ll think it’s someone’s trick.”

Dongli suddenly stopped talking.

When he and Caiju first came to serve the two old masters, Miss Yan was quite worried about them and sent several tenants from the village to monitor them.

Thinking about that time when he would meet people as soon as he went out and ask him enthusiastically where he was going and what he was going to do, he felt a little dumbfounded.

Gu Jian: "Okay, the few things are a bit missing, but if you tell Xiao Wu the formula and process of preparing the potion, he will find someone to make it. By the way, remember to remind Xiao Wu that this is developed by my apprentice.

Yes, let him remember the little girl’s contribution.”

She secretly informed the emperor of her apprentice's things. As a master, he was a little embarrassed. How could he not take the opportunity to gain some credit for her?

Dongli nodded: "I can do that."

......

Yanfu.

Because Li Zixuan got married on the 20th of the first lunar month and Daohua returned home from Taohua Village on the 12th of the first lunar month, their family had to go there a few days in advance.

That afternoon, when Daohua was packing her things to go out, Yang Xiujun came over.

Looking at Yang Xiujun, Daohua asked with a smile: "Xiujun, you are going out tomorrow. Have you packed your things?"

This time when she went to Li's house, Mrs. Li also brought Yang Xiujun with her, but Yan Siyu stayed at home to accompany Mrs. Yan.

Yang Xiujun smiled and nodded: "I don't have many things, so I have packed them away."

Daohua: "That's good. Do you have anything to do with me?" As she said this, she continued to choose the jewelry to wear when going out.

Looking at Daohua's several boxes of jewelry, Yang Xiujun was a little dazzled. She lowered her eyes and said with a smile: "I just have nothing to do, so I want to come and sit with my cousin."

Daohua: "Okay, then you sit down and I'll talk to you while I pack my things."

Yang Xiujun nodded and sat on the couch next to the window.

"Girl, do you think these sets of dresses are enough?" Gu Yu placed the selected coats and dresses on the hangers one by one.

Daohua glanced at her: "Cousin Zixuan is getting married, so she needs to dress happily. Take out the silver-red fox jacket and pomegranate silk skirt. By the way, the weather is still cold now, so remember to bring the newly made gorilla felt cloak.

If you go out to watch the lanterns at night during the Lantern Festival, you must wear something."

Guyu responded and immediately turned around to find some clothes.

Yang Xiujun sat aside, looking at the clothes scattered everywhere, with envy in her eyes.

Although her aunt had prepared three sets of clothes for her to go out, no matter the materials or styles, they were incomparable with cousin Yiyi's.

Seeing that Yang Xiujun was silent, Daohua asked, "Do you still like the clothes your mother prepared for you?"

Yang Xiujun immediately said: "I like it very much."

Daohua smiled and said: "That's good. If you think the size or style is not suitable, you can go to the sewing room to change it. I make these clothes according to my own ideas."

Yang Xiujun's face suddenly showed: "No wonder my cousin's clothes are different from those of Yihuan and the others."

Daohua smiled: "The embroiderers in the mansion are good at their needlework, but their aesthetics are a little different from mine. Every time I make new clothes and send them samples, I will change them accordingly."

."

Yang Xiujun smiled and said: "I think my cousin's clothes look good, which shows that my cousin has better taste than others."

Daohua smiled and shook her head: "What's good for you? I just know what suits me."

Seeing that Daohua was in a good mood, Yang Xiujun hesitated for a moment and looked at Daohua with some hesitation.

Daohua saw it and raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

Yang Xiujun was silent for a moment, then summoned up the courage to say: "Cousin Yiyi, you know that my uncle wants my brother to go to Wangyue Academy to study in advance, right?"

Hearing this, the smile on Daohua's face faded a little: "I heard about it."

Yang Xiujun: "Cousin Yiyi, can you talk to my uncle and ask him not to send my brother to the academy so quickly?"

The smile on Daohua's face disappeared, and she looked at Yang Xiujun in confusion: "I don't understand this. Isn't my cousin coming to Zhongzhou just to study? This academy is about to start school, why don't you go?"
p>

Yang Xiujun quickly explained: "My brother wants to spend more time with Master Xiao and cousin Wenxiu. It doesn't matter if he goes to the academy later."

Daohua put down the hairpin in her hand: "I don't agree with what my cousin said. It's good for my cousin to want to gain experience, but it's equally important to go to an academy to study."

"Don't look at it. My brother is working with Master Xiao now. It seems very simple and easy. In fact, he will encounter various problems during the process. If there are problems, we must solve them. How to solve the problems is a great test of a person's ability."

"Where does ability come from? It's not from books. In the past few years, my eldest brother has been studying hard in the academy and has never slacked off."

"That is, I became a Juren this year. With the support of knowledge, my eldest brother can smoothly follow Master Xiao. Otherwise, relying only on my father's relationship, my eldest brother will not know anything, and he will be embarrassed to stay.

."

"Cousin Xiujun, do you think this is true?"

Yang Xiujun's face was a little stiff.

Daohua continued: "As the old saying goes, you have to do things step by step. My cousin is now at the age of studying and going to school, so it is better to go to the academy with peace of mind."

Yang Xiujun was silent for a moment, unwilling to give up, and tried again: "My eldest brother's knowledge is quite solid. My eldest uncle has said this personally. My brother will not delay for too long. Even my eldest cousin will follow me before he goes to the capital.

It’s just Master Xiao.”

Daohua was silent. She felt that what she said had been made clearly enough. Cousin Xiujun was usually very sensitive, so why couldn't she hear her rejection this time?

Could it be that in her eyes, she is easy to talk to?

Daohua looked at Yang Xiujun indifferently: "Does cousin Xiujun get along with the elders like this at home?"

Yang Xiujun was slightly stunned: "Huh?"

Daohua: "If your parents disagree with something, will you refute it three times?"

Yang Xiujun became anxious upon hearing this: "That's not what I meant. I didn't ask you to refute your uncle, I just want you to beg for mercy?"

Daohua frowned: "Please? Cousin, I don't understand the word. Did my father punish cousin Hongrui or teach him a lesson? It was just to let him go to school according to your intention. Why did my cousin...

Did you use the word "please"?"

Seeing that Daohua's face turned bad, Yang Xiujun quickly explained: "Cousin, don't be upset, I said the wrong thing, I just..."

Daohua raised her hand to interrupt her: "No matter what my cousin means, I can't help you. I won't plead for mercy, and I don't have any reason or position to plead for mercy."

"Compared to me, cousin Xiujun, if you have something on your mind, you can go directly to your father and say it instead of going around the corner to come to me."

After saying that, he picked up the teacup on the table.

When Yang Xiujun saw Daohua's gesture of seeing off guests, she felt slightly worried: "I'm the one who's being rude. Please don't get along with me, cousin. It's nothing, so I'll leave first."
