Volume 1 Chapter 48 Mutton Soup

As soon as the man reached the city gate, he was caught up by Yuan Er and Yuan San. They watched the man walk and get into a carriage and walk around the street.

Finally, they went to a very secluded ruined temple in the west of the city that was said to be haunted. As soon as they caught up and hid, they heard the angry voice of a young man.

"What, ten thousand taels, one prescription is worth ten thousand taels, how did you negotiate so that she would have the opportunity to speak like a lion?"

The man did not dare to say that he had mysteriously extended a finger and was misunderstood, so he could only convey Xu Yunjin's original words with a guilty conscience.

"She said this is the master's secret recipe, and it's worth ten thousand taels. We won't sell it for less than ten thousand taels."

The young man looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was much thinner than the average northern barbarian and was wearing linen clothes.

The face of a handsome young man looked extremely ferocious at the moment. It was none other than the fifth prince of the Northern Barbarians, Hating. Hating gritted his teeth and said to the man:

"Give her the money, you stinky girl. I gave her the life to take the money but not the life to spend it."

Yuan Yuansan looked at each other, quietly left the City God's Temple, and went straight back to the outside of the city.

Not long after Xu Yunjin waited in the tent of the village chief's house, the man came back. As soon as he entered the tent and saw Xu Yunjin, a fierce look flashed in the man's eyes, which was so fast that it was hard to see clearly.

"Doctor Xu, our boss said that this prescription will be beneficial to the people. He is willing to spend 10,000 taels to buy the prescription. This is a banknote. I wonder if Dr. Xu can take the prescription back to me now."

Xu Yunjin reached out and took out the banknotes, one thousand taels each, and counted them in front of the man.

There were exactly ten. Xu Yunjin looked at the money in his hand and smiled. Ignoring the man's twitching corners of his mouth, Xu Yunjin took out a prescription from his pocket and handed it to the man.

"This is the prescription for insecticide?"

The man saw that there were nearly twenty kinds of medicinal materials written densely on the paper. The most important thing was that the medicine primer turned out to be horse dung. The man felt that he had been cheated.

"What? If you don't believe me, then take the money and return the prescription to me."

Xu Yunjin pretended to be angry and tried to grab the prescription from the man's hand.

"Believe it, believe it, Doctor Xu has excellent medical skills. So many people outside the city have tried it recently. How can it be fake?"

The man quickly folded the prescription and put it in his chest, and said to Xu Yunjin with a flattering look on his face.

"Okay, then I won't give it to the shopkeeper."

Xu Yunjin wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so she had to ask the man to leave quickly, otherwise she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold it in.

Seeing Xu Yunjin chasing people away, the man was stunned for a moment and turned around and left the tent.

Xu Yunjin secretly took a look through the gap and made sure that the man had left before telling Xu Yongnian and returning to his tent.

"Hahaha, grandparents, parents, uncles and aunts, eldest brother, second brother, sister, little brother, look, I made a lot of money."

As soon as Xu Yunjin returned to the place where the Xu family was stationed, he mysteriously called to the Xu family. Upon hearing Xu Yunjin's laughter, everyone put down their work and returned to the tent.

"This, this, this... why are there so many banknotes? Isn't this fake?"

Xu Yunjin handed out a banknote to someone next to him. Zhang looked at the word "thousand" written on it. The hand holding the banknote was shaking and she stuttered when speaking.

Xu Yunjin told the Xu family how he played a trick on the other party, added a few medicinal ingredients to the prescription, and changed a few ingredients to sell to the northern barbarians, and then Lin grabbed his ear.

"Ouch, it hurts..."

Xu Yunjin quickly begged for mercy, but in fact Lin didn't use much force.

"Why are you so bold, kid? What if they try the medicine and get bad results and come back to settle the score with you?"

Mrs. Lin is troubled by her daughter's temperament. Although she is lively and smart, she is sometimes too courageous.

"Oh, it's okay, mother. That prescription won't hurt bad people, but it won't do anything if you take it. Besides, Yuanxuan and the others have sent people to follow them. Maybe those people will be arrested soon, and there is no chance to find them.

mine."

Xu Yunjin still believed in Yuan Xuan very much. If she hadn't followed, he might have sent someone to tell her long ago.

The fact that they haven't come yet proves that they have found a place and may be ready to take action.

But what Xu Yunjin didn't expect was that the other party actually escaped Yuan Xuan's trap, and Xu Yunjin almost lost his life in the future.

Time flew by and came to the afternoon of the second day after Yuan Xuan returned to the city. Xu Yunjin had just returned to his tent after conducting follow-up consultations with some old ladies in the village. The weather this year was extremely cold, and the people in his village had not fully recovered from the cold.

"Miss Xu, our young master asked me to tell you that those northern barbarians ran away and he led his men to chase them. We will meet again in Jiujiang in the future."

As soon as Xu Yunjin walked to the door of her tent, she saw a familiar figure. When she heard Yuan Bao's words, Xu Yunjin was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Ha Ting ran away anyway.

"Okay, I'll see you in Jiujiang by chance."

The main force set off early the next morning. If the weather didn't get colder, they might have to spend the winter here.

"Hey, wait for me, little girl!"

Xu Yunjin was sitting in the carriage and was about to sink into farming on the farm when he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from outside the carriage.

"Grandpa Zhuang, where have you been? We all thought you were no longer with us."

Xu Yunjin opened the curtains of the carriage and looked at Old Man Zhuang who was riding a horse and asked.

"Who said that? Old man, I promised to follow you to try the good things you mentioned. I have been tripped up by things these past two days, so I didn't follow you."

Old Man Zhuang said to Xu Yunjin with some guilt. Xu Yunjin also knew enough not to ask, as long as Old Man Zhuang didn't leave.

Since the last time Xu Yunjin asked the villagers to make hats, gloves and masks, no one has gotten sick on the road, and the frostbite on Xu Wu's hands has also improved.

Along the way, Old Man Zhuang walked with the Xu family. Sometimes he went to the bullock cart to chat with Xu Wen and the others, and later he went to the Chen family to have a fight with Chen Sihuai.

At first, Xu Yunjin bought some beef jerky from the farm and put it in a bag for Mr. Zhuang. When he was bored, the old man would eat the beef jerky.

But after a few days, he didn't want to chew anymore, so he went up the mountain alone a few days before the winter solstice when everyone stopped to rest.

"Sister, please come out and see. Grandpa Zhuang has returned from hunting a wild goat. Come out and see. Grandpa Zhuang said he wants to eat mutton stew and asked you if you can cook it?"

Xu Yunjin was farming in the carriage when she suddenly heard Xu Yunzhao calling her from outside. She pulled out of consciousness and walked out of the carriage.

"Where did Grandpa Zhuang hunt the goats? Are the goats still out and about in such a cold weather?"

Xu Yunjin didn't know how these wild animals lived in the winter, so he walked out of the car door and asked Xu Yunzhao, who was chattering.

"Grandpa Zhuang is so awesome. When he went hunting in the mountains, he came across a wild goat that came out to drink water. He killed one and brought it back, saying it would be a snack for us."

Xu Yunzhao took Xu Yunjin's hand and said excitedly. After a while, the two siblings arrived in front of everyone, and Xu Wu was already skinning the goat.

"Jin Yatou, you are here, come on, come on, let's see what this goat is going to do. I originally wanted to kill two more heads, but I thought it would be difficult to carry it, so I killed one and went down the mountain."

When Mr. Zhuang saw Xu Yunjin, he quickly waved to her and asked her to come to him, and then looked at Xu Yunjin expectantly.

"Since there is only one head, let's use the mutton bones and haggis to stew the soup, and put some radishes in it. It's just in the middle of winter. Drinking some soup can warm you up. Leave five kilograms of meat out, and I will make braised mutton for you alone.

, cut the rest of the meat into small pieces and put it into the soup for them to have a taste."

Xu Yunjin looked at the skinned wild goat and thought about it. In her previous life, her grandmother would make haggis soup every winter solstice. Her favorite thing was to ask her grandmother to put some chili peppers in the soup and stew it together.

The soup stewed in this way is white, fresh and spicy, and can warm the body quickly. Daqi does not have the habit of drinking mutton soup during the winter solstice, so I will make it for them to try today.

"Can I eat this haggis? It's such a smelly thing?"

Old Man Zhuang didn't have any objections when he heard Xu Yunjin's arrangement. The food was originally brought for them to eat, but it was just haggis, which was something people didn't want.

"Of course you can eat it. I can handle them very clean. I guarantee you will want another bowl of haggis soup after you drink it."
