In the second room of the Lin family, the old lady looked at Fang Zi, calculating the family's money and property. Her hair was disheveled, as if she had aged several years.
Hundred-year-old ginseng? Ten-year-old ginseng, even ten-year-old ginseng is difficult to eat!
What should I do?! Sell the house? I don’t know if it’s enough...
She thought about it, but had no other choice, so she gritted her teeth: Go to Dongfu, I will beg her! If she is willing to give it, I can kneel down for her!
So she asked the old woman next to her to dress her.
Going to the Lin family's main room? Lin Zhixuan heard about it and hurriedly came over and said, "Grandma, Xuan'er, come with you!"
The two old ladies were not in the mood to talk to her, so they took their mother-in-law, Lin Zhixuan and her girl Qiaoer, and walked to the Lin Mansion.
Mrs. Lin heard that Mrs. Jiang suddenly came to the door and didn't know what was going on.
When I looked at her, I was surprised. What's going on? Why does she look like this?!
Before Mrs. Lin Er could speak, her eye circles turned red.
"I really have no choice but to beg you. Song'er... I can't help it anymore."
"Oh, didn't you go well that day?" Old Mrs. Lin looked a little surprised.
"I can't delay it for half a month... Wuwu..." Just saying it made old Mrs. Lin Er feel extremely distressed. When Lin Zhixuan heard it, why was it for him?! If she couldn't delay it, she would die! She hated it
think……
Old Mrs. Lin said, "How could this happen? Did the doctor say that?" She said she was worried, but in her heart she thought this dead old woman was making a fuss again.
"It's... the doctor said it. If it hadn't come to this point, I wouldn't have come to beg you! Just save him! Woo hoo..." Mrs. Lin Er burst into tears.
Old Mrs. Lin said in a fake tone, "Brothers and sisters, please stop saying that. What do you want me to do?"
"Sister-in-law, I have a hard time on weekdays. We are both brothers, but we are so different from each other. I feel unfair to you, so I disrespect you. Don't remember the villain's fault... Don't take it to heart. Just save him once and give me a
Just century-old ginseng! Sister-in-law, I really have no choice!"
Old Mrs. Lin's heart skipped a beat, she did have this century-old ginseng, it was her dowry!
This is included in the dowry to make it appear valuable.
This kind of thing is used to highlight its value! Who would really eat it? What kind of fatal disease would it be?!
When Lin Jiangwan got married, she also bought her a companion.
The one in my hand was only waiting for her to die before arrangements could be made.
This kind of thing is so effective that it loses its medicinal effect, and it is not really useful. If you use it, you will lose your fortune!
If it's really sick, wouldn't it be possible if it lasted five years or ten years?
If it still doesn't work, just die!
She was so embarrassed to ask someone for a family heirloom!!
But seeing the old lady Lin Er sobbing, her life was at stake, and no matter how angry she felt, she couldn't open her mouth to speak.
Old Mrs. Lin Er lowered her head and wiped her tears, "I know this thing is extremely precious. If he hadn't really been unable to get over this hurdle, I wouldn't have opened my mouth to you. He took the medicine and recovered, and he will definitely win the Juren Award."
Yes! I will definitely pay it back when the time comes. I promise, I will pay it back when I sell my house and land."
Haha, Mrs. Lin secretly laughed, he still has to pass the imperial examination, why didn't you say wait until he wins the Jinshi and the number one scholar!?
Sell the house and the land and give it back to me?!
If I squeeze you like this, how can your children behave?
When the emperor found out, he would be dissatisfied with Lin Ji!
Old Mrs. Lin was angry for a long time, and pretended to sigh, "He is my nephew, and he is so promising. If I can do it, no matter what, I have to offer it to him this time. But this hundred-year-old ginseng... I originally
There was some in the dowry, but when Jiang Wan went out, he picked her up. She was from a family like the Marquis's Mansion, so she didn't order good things for fear that others would look down on her. There was some ginseng prepared in the house, but
Because it has no special purpose, it won’t last a long time... It’s better to do this... Brothers and sisters, take some money and go to the drug store to choose."
As soon as he signaled to the girl, she dragged a tray with four ingots and fifty taels of silver in it.
When the second old lady heard this, she had nothing to say. She was silent for a long time and said, "If you don't have it, then that's it. It doesn't have to be like this. I'll go outside and have a look."
After that, the second old lady wiped her tears, stood up and left.
She knows that Mrs. Huang is as hard-hearted as iron, and that her own sons and grandsons are so cruel! I was so impatient, so stupid, that I actually begged her!
Lin Zhixuan's eyes widened when she saw the silver, and she didn't even follow the old lady.
So much money, just give it to that sick guy?!
She was extremely angry.
The second old lady went out and moved forward step by step. Her grandma supported her, and she felt that the weight of the old lady's body was leaning on her, and she was trembling. She could hardly hold on.
I could only whisper, "Old lady, don't be so angry, I'm still counting on you."
The second old lady looked at the sky and let out a long sigh... "That's it. When we go back, we will sell off the house and land, go to the drugstore and buy ginseng. Then write to his brother, and he will have to get some money back. No matter how high the price is,
Even if the price is high, I have to buy it!" she said through gritted teeth.
Not far away, Dongyun was standing on the side of the road. He saw the old lady and bowed, "Old lady, this servant is Dongyun who is with the third girl. My girl is asking you to come over."
"You, your girl, are you okay?" the second old lady asked dizzy.
"My girl heard that Uncle Song has been feeling unwell these days, so she happened to have some medicine she brought from Hangzhou. Please go over and see if there is any medicine that suits your symptoms."
Old lady: "Three girls are interested, but..."
Dongyun said, "There are patent medicines and medicinal materials. Old lady, please go and take a look. What if there is something useful?"
"Are there any medicinal materials?"
Does anyone have ginseng?
The century-old kind?
The old lady said, "Then lead the way quickly."
The old lady helped the old lady over. The old lady had hope in her heart and gained strength in her legs, so she walked very fast.
After entering the courtyard, Lin Zhixiu was already waiting in the courtyard. He saw her coming in and said, "Uncle."
The second old lady's eyes were full of tears. She couldn't see Lin Zhixiu's current appearance clearly. She choked and said, "Girl Xiu, I can't help you thinking about your brother. I'm so thoughtful. Great uncle... Good boy, great uncle, I took note of it..."
"She wiped her eyes.
"What did my great-uncle say? When brother Song gets better, he will be selected as a candidate for the imperial exam this autumn, and next spring, your good days will come. If he wins the first prize again! Xiu'er will also be the first scholar.
She is a girl. She is worth showing off in this life!"
"You girl..." The old lady smiled bitterly.
"Sit down. I have a lot of patent medicines and some medicinal materials here. But you don't have to choose. I know what kind of medicine is most suitable for my brother."
Dongyun held up an ebony box, which was dark and bright, with carvings on the wood, a silver-wrapped rim on the cover and bottom, and a jade lock. Judging from the appearance, it looked exquisite and valuable.
The old lady blinked, her heart pounding, what is this?
Lin Zhixiu took it, put it on the table, opened the lock, and saw seven chubby white wax pills quietly placed on the red velvet. They were twice as big as ordinary pills, and there were vague gold characters on them.
Lin Zhixiu said to the old lady in a low voice, "This is the treasure of Hangzhou Baoan Tang, Ginseng Baoji Pills. How to take it, you see, it is written on the list. Take one pill a day, for seven days in a row, use two pills."
Ten years of warm rice wine is given away. Then the process is repeated in the second month. Three months is a course of treatment. In this box, there are seven pills on one layer. There are three layers in total, with twenty-one pills."
The old lady's hands were trembling, and she wanted to touch it, but she didn't dare. She just stared blankly, unable to say anything.
"Just take it for three months a year. The doctor in the hall said that this medicine is most suitable for those who are naturally weak, short of breath, and unable to sleep peacefully."
When the old lady heard this, the old doctor kept saying that Lin Song didn't have many organ problems, but that his whole body was too weak and he couldn't sleep well...
Sweat broke out on her back.
I wish I could snatch it away immediately and feed one to my eldest grandson when I go home.
Lin Zhixiu is still saying, "With three years of continuous eating and good maintenance, cousin Song will be able to study and do things like ordinary people. This maintenance means sleeping well, don't be cold, don't be angry, and eat
You should eat a combination of meat and vegetables and drink plenty of warm water. After taking the medicine, if you feel better, you should spend more time outdoors in the sun and walk more. As your body becomes stronger, your illness will gradually get better."
The second old lady burst into tears and took out the medicine. Everything was blurred: "Girl Xiu, you are...you, wuwu...you girl. Great-uncle, you were just like your father back then, and your grandmother made things difficult for you."
Mother, uncle and aunt can't control it... In all these years you have been in the south, your aunt and uncle haven't even given you a needle. Now, I want you to think about your brother Song, really, my aunt and uncle's face is really useless.
let it go……"
"What are you talking about? My father always talks about your difficulties. My brother Song is a scholar, better than my brothers in my own family. When the third brother comes back, I would rather let him spend more time with brother Song.
Let’s learn more from him together.”
"Okay, when he comes back, let your brother Song take him out to make friends and teachers. This thing is so precious and timely."
"Second Grandma, you really know your stuff. This medicine is indeed precious. The ingredients in it are hard-to-find good things. Think about it, the old wild ginseng used in it is hundreds of years old!"
"Hundreds of years!" The old lady was excited! Ginseng is still hundreds of years old!!
She cried and laughed again, very crazy.
Lin Zhixiu was still saying, "Yeah. There are also Tianshan snow lotus, Cordyceps sinensis, Ganoderma lucidum and deer antlers. Great uncle, although this old mountain ginseng is extremely expensive, you can get it as long as you have money. But this snow lotus and cordyceps are really worth it."
It’s not easy. Besides, the ratio was developed by Bao’an Tang for several generations. There are many production procedures, and you have to choose the season. It’s troublesome! It’s true that every pill is hard-earned! Even if it’s Bao’an Tang, it’s not easy.
It happens all the time. Customers have to pay money and wait for a long time before they can get a course of medicine. To be honest, if you resell it, you can make a lot of money. Therefore, you must keep it and take less pills to achieve the best effect.
It’s a lot different. But don’t be careless.”
"Grandma knows that this is your brother Song's fate... wuwu, I will take good care of it."
"Second Grandma, this list is about how to eat it. Please read it carefully."
"Yes, yes. Grandma thanks you. If your brother Song recovers from his illness, let him come and thank you in person. If you encounter trouble at home, you can come to your uncle and aunt. If you can't do anything else, make a big fuss with them.
, it can still be done to embarrass them!"
"Yes. Great uncle, I have you at home and uncle outside, so I don't have to worry!"
"Then, your uncle Song is waiting for life-saving medicine, and my uncle and aunt won't be polite to you. Xiu'er, do you have a basket? I can't take it out like this, and I can't let them see it."
"Yes, just right. I'll bring you some other items."
"No need for anything else!"
"Bring some more, and give Sister Xuan something to eat and play with."
"Oh, don't worry about her, she's a loser."
Only then did the old lady realize that her granddaughter had not followed her.
The old lady personally carried the basket containing the medicine, and Lin Zhixiu gave her some medicine to remove fire and improve eyesight.
"Uncle, please take a few pills of this anti-inflammatory medicine! You look like you are worried."
"Brother Song is fine, and my uncle and aunt will be fine."
She carried the medicine, and the old woman carried a basket of food and left.
As soon as the two people came out and walked to the main road, they saw Lin Zhixuan coming out angrily.
After all, she didn't hold the two hundred taels of silver.
Seeing the old lady and the girl carrying something in their hands, they quickly came up and said, "Grandma, what is this? Come and take it."
"Don't worry, what did you do just now?" The second old lady looked at her with disgust.
"I'm not at Grandma's place. What do you have in your hand, Nanny? Who gave it to you?"
The second grandmother said, "Please keep your voice down, these are some medicine and food for your brother."
"It's for him again!! Who gave it to him?"
"Let's talk about it when we get home!"
Grandma Li told Old Mrs. Lin that she had gone to Chaoyunju. Old Mrs. Lin sneered, "Three girls are rich and generous, go to her and ask for a hundred-year-old ginseng!"
