Rebirth of marriage

It was Nanny Wu who came, and Xie Jiu was a little surprised.

Instructing the servants to move several baskets of silver carbons out of the carriage, Nanny Wu followed Xie Jiu into the house and took out a few banknotes from her arms, "Mrs. Yang, thank you for your advice last time and asked me to dispose of Amber's Things with bad intentions, these carbon and banknotes are the old lady’s thoughts.”

Xie Jiu smiled lightly, took the banknote and put it into his sleeve, "Thank you so much, mama."

Aunt Wu was a little surprised that she was so rude. Sure enough, she was a child raised by a merchant family. She was actually greedy for money and didn't even know how to be polite on the surface.

But then I thought about it, well, the prince would not look down on such a person.

There were some things she wanted to say in Xie Jiu's polite pushback, but Xie Jiu just accepted them, so she had no choice but to speak out.

Glancing around the room, she saw that there were only two of them. Aunt Wu took out the housekeeper's dignity and said in a deep voice, "Old lady, let's not beat around the bush with Madam. These things are not only a reminder to thank Madam, but also Madam's explanation for the prince." In exchange for the medicine, Madam accepted these things from the old woman. Please avoid my prince in the future.

The prince is very noble, no matter how many women there are, the world will still say that he is elegant and extraordinary, but the identity of the wife is really not suitable for being involved with my prince.

The most important thing for this woman is her reputation. Once it is known that she is a widow and is involved with a man, it will be fatal for her.

The old lady thought about my wife's kindness, and she didn't want to see her fall into the position of being despised by everyone one day. I hope my wife would remember the old lady's words. "

It was impossible to avoid Gu Xiao. Aunt Wu's threat made Xie Jiu feel a storm in her heart. But challenging her now might make her contact Nihuang, or ruin her reputation like it did in her previous life. It only increases trouble.

She is someone Gu Xiao cares about, and she should be dealt with by Gu Xiao.

He thanked the wine and bowed his head in silence, making it difficult to see the expression on his face.

Aunt Wu knew that her words were serious, so when she saw this, she just thought she was ashamed, and said, "I'll take this as my wife's consent. I've already made my words clear, so I'll leave first."

The prince ordered not to reveal anything about that night, because he did not want to admit his relationship with her. She came here today to thank the prince and not to have any ideas about their prince.

Aunt Wu and her group left as quickly as they came. People in the slums just thought it was someone from the city who came to see Lin Shu for medical treatment and did not become suspicious.

Xie Jiu took out the banknotes from his sleeve and counted them, 500 taels.

She knew very well that these things were not given by Nanny Wu, but were sent by Gu Xiao.

Every time after they were happy in the previous life, Gu Xiao would either do things for her or give her money. At that time, she just thought that he wanted to settle things with her, and she was sad about it.

Now she has no pressure to accept these things. Why should she refuse her man's wishes?

And what she is going to do next requires money.

She handed the 500 taels to Lin Shu, "Xiao Shu, here are 500 taels in silver notes. I would like to ask you to help me buy a batch of medicinal materials for treating typhoid fever. If I sell them, I will give you [-]% of the profit.

Or if you trust me, you can also give me some money, and I guarantee you can make a lot of money. "

Lin Shu frowned, "Medicinal materials to treat injuries are not expensive. You can buy a lot with these 500 taels. What do you want with so many medicinal materials?"

Xie Jiu raised his eyebrows and said, "I have read many books in the past few years in the Hou Mansion. Based on what I have learned, I predict that there will be a heavy snowstorm this year. Snowstorm weather is most likely to cause typhoid fever."

In the previous life, a month of continuous heavy snowfall in Yuyouguan triggered a cold epidemic. The road was blocked due to heavy snowfall and it was difficult to wait for the court to rescue him. Di Rong took the opportunity to drive up the prices of medicinal materials and charcoal.

Gu Xiao spent all the palace's financial resources to buy medicinal materials and charcoal from Di Rong at high prices to supply the army and the people, but there were still countless casualties.

There is still a month left, so she can stock up as much as possible before the price of medicinal materials increases. By then, she can make a lot of money even if she sells them at the usual selling price.

Lin Shu knew that some people could judge the weather through wind direction, clouds and other phenomena. Seeing Xie Jiu's firm eyes, she was inexplicably convinced.

"Aren't you afraid that I won't do anything if I take your money?" They had only been together for a few days, so why did they trust her so much.

Xie Jiu smiled, "You can't, but this medicinal material cannot be bought within the customs. We have to find a way to purchase it from Di Rong."

She knew that Lin Shu had been in Yuyouguan for many years and had treated countless patients, so he had some connections.

If there is a snowstorm, the medicinal materials in the pass will not be enough to cope with it. There will also be situations where merchants will have scarce medicinal materials and raise the price of medicines.

At the critical moment of life and death, the two of them may not be able to keep the medicinal materials in their hands. They should indeed purchase them secretly from Di Rong. Lin Shu nodded slightly.

Furthermore, I would like to use a lot of medicinal materials to treat wind and cold every winter, and they may be stored and not easy to spoil, but Xie Jiu's prediction was wrong. Those medicinal materials can be wholesaled to pharmacies in the pass, and nothing will be lost.

She made up her mind and said, "I will take out another 500 taels, and I will split it [-]-[-] with you."

Xie Jiu smiled, "Four or six points, I'll give you six points, I'm just giving out the money, I'm worried about you."

Lin Shu thought about this and stopped insisting.

After the matter was agreed upon, Xie Jiu carried the bamboo basket on his back and talked to Lin Shu about his original plan, "Xiao Shu, I'm going out for two or three days. If the Yang family asks, you can cover it for me and tell me I'm going to do something for you. "

"It's not as safe as you think here." Lin Shu did not interfere with her freedom, but couldn't help but remind her to pay attention to her safety.

Xie Jiu showed her the dagger in his backpack and reassured her, "But just to be prepared, please ask Dr. Lin to give you some trauma medicine."

Lin Shu glanced at the smiling, quiet and gentle woman and couldn't think of anything she was going to do that might require trauma medicine.

But being under the same roof these days, Xie Jiu didn't try to hide it. She already understood that Xie Jiu was not what she had previously understood. After thinking about it, she turned around and went back to the house to take out two bottles of medicine. "Use the white bottle for external injuries and the white bottle for internal injuries." Green bottle, the silver has been deducted, please pay first for the next time you get the medicine."

Xie Jiu felt warm in his heart, and stretched out his arms to hug Lin Shu. She knew these two bottles of medicine, and each bottle was worth more than ten taels. Lin Shu had a cold face and a warm heart, and gave her the best.

Lin Shu was not used to such intimacy, so he pulled the person away and pushed him out of the door. He thanked Jiu and walked towards the mountain with the corner of his mouth raised.

In the snowstorm and cold epidemic a month later, in addition to medicinal materials, you also need something to keep warm.

Yuyouguan is very cold every winter. Most poor people cannot afford to wear cotton. Their clothes are basically stuffed with straw and catkins, which does not keep them warm. And charcoal is not affordable for everyone.

If there is another cold wave, it will be a reminder to make things worse for the people.

The master has a profound reserve of knowledge, and he teaches everything he has. After three years, Xie Jiu also has a lot of theoretical knowledge in his mind.

I heard before that someone picked up flammable stones in the mountains and killed the whole family. Xie Jiu combined what he had learned to determine some things.

After searching in the mountains for half a day, she finally came to a landslide on a barren mountain. The surface of the landslide was covered with pitch black earth and rocks. She picked up a dark hard rock and put it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it. It was indeed as good as her master said. Pungent smell.

He took out the fire stick and tried to light it. Seeing that the black stone really started to burn, Xie Jiu smiled knowingly.

This is the coal that Master said can be used to make fires for warmth and can also be used to make iron.

With this, she can not only help the people in Guan pass through the cold epidemic, but also make a lot of money. If she wants to strengthen herself, money is the necessary foundation.

Because it is a barren mountain, few villagers nearby come here.

Xie Jiu circled the mountain and dug a few places with his dagger, confirming that the entire mountain was made of coal.

But Master said that there are many impurities in raw coal. When burned, there is a lot of smoke and a pungent smell. Coal washing needs to be done to reduce dust and harmful components in raw coal.

She immediately carried a basket of coal in a backpack to a nearby stream and washed it in water until the coal was completely soaked.

The coal is then broken into pieces and turned into coal powder.

I dug some yellow mud again, mixed it with coal powder according to the proportion, and kneaded it into a cake shape. I poked a few holes in the middle of the coal cake to make it dry and flammable.

When everything was done, it was already dusk. Xie Jiu carefully put the coal cakes into his backpack, took two more pieces of raw coal, washed his hands before leaving.

When she arrived at a nearby small village, it was already dark. She found a hidden place, took out the dry food and chewed it slowly.

Just when Xie Jiu finished eating the dry food and closed his eyes to rest, the dog started barking. Xie Jiu suddenly opened his eyes, hid the backpack on his back, took the dagger and entered the village.
