The next day, Gu Yunxi and Lu Qingqing went to town and delivered the pattern to Madam Wang of Shixiufang.

Madam Wang was greeting the guests. When she saw Gu Yunxi coming, she was full of smiles. She took Gu Yunxi's hand and said, "Oh, Madam Lu, you are here. No wonder I am so happy when I see the branches." The birds kept chirping."

"How are you, Mrs. Wang?" Gu Yunxi responded with a smile, and the two of them seemed very familiar with each other.

"Okay, business in the store has been a lot better recently!"

Madam Wang is very happy. Recently, not only the Shi Embroidery Shop, but also the embroidery shops in other places of the owner have used the patterns provided by Gu Yunxi, and their business has boomed. The supply of embroidery products is almost in short supply.

Just as he was talking, the accountant took out the settled silver coins and handed them to Gu Yunxi: "You count them."

Gu Yunxi nodded and said, "No need! You can trust our Shixiufang."

After collecting the money and putting it in his purse, Gu Yunxi left and took Lu Qingqing away, heading straight to the drug store.

Coming out of the drug store, Gu Yunxi had a box of ointment in his hand.

"Sister-in-law. It's too expensive!" Such a small box of ointment actually costs one tael of silver.

If you could grow medicinal herbs and sell them for money, you would make a lot of money.

These days, relying on the memory of the original owner and some travel books from Lu Jianchuan, she figured out the location of Xijiang Village. It is in the southwest of Tianqi Kingdom. The climate is very suitable for growing medicinal herbs, such as gastrodia elata and honeysuckle. , Chonglou, and Polygonum multiflorum can all be planted.

But having the right climate is one thing, the main question is, where to get the herb seedlings? Also, herbs are not as easy as growing vegetables, they are quite delicate.

Gu Yunxi shook his head, and went to the bookstore with Lu Qingqing again and bought some paper and pens.

"Man, do you have any pencils here?" Gu Yunxi asked.

It is really inconvenient to use a brush to draw patterns. It would be better if I had a pencil.

"Pencil? What is this? I'm sorry, little lady, our store has never sold the pencil you mentioned."

The clerk scratched his head and thought he hadn't heard clearly. After asking twice, he realized that Gu Yunxi was talking about pencils.

Gu Yunxi missed the pencils he used before. If he had a pencil, it would be much easier to draw patterns!

They picked two more pieces of the cheapest paper, spent a hundred cents, and then went home with another burst of pain.

It was already noon when they arrived at home. He, Father Lu, and Lu Jianchuan had also returned from the fields. Gu Yunxi handed He the money that should be handed over to the public servant. In addition, He also had the hundred yuan he earned from doing embroidery work. Multi-text.

Mrs. He took the silver, with a smile on her face, and went into the house with a smile, and hid the silver in a dark wood-grained box under the bed.

At night, after washing up, Gu Yunxi took out the box of ointment and said to Lu Jianchuan: "Well, I bought the medicine. You lie down on the bed and I will apply the ointment for you first."

Lu Jianchuan looked at the familiar packaging. He saw that the ointment he applied when he injured his leg was the same. In the largest drug store in town, this ointment cost one tael of silver for a small box.

He lowered his eyes, thinking that he was just protecting Gu Yunxi, so there was no need to spend so much money on ointment.

However, he still climbed onto the bed obediently and took off his clothes, exposing his strong back.

Gu Yunxi scraped a thin layer of ointment with his fingertips, and gently applied the ointment along the area where Mrs. Gu had hit her.

Her small hand scratched the skin of Lu Jianchuan's back, causing the strange feeling in Lu Jianchuan's heart to emerge again.

Lu Jianchuan forgot about the pain. This strange feeling filled his whole body and mind, making him feel a little dry and he couldn't help but pursed his lips.

"Okay, I will help you apply medicine every night these days. Remember not to touch the water and don't take a shower for a few days."

After applying the ointment, Gu Yunxi carefully covered the ointment and said to Lu Jianchuan. There was still a hint of ointment between her fingertips.

"Yeah, I understand." Lu Jianchuan was greatly benefited from Gu Yunxi's care and concern for him.

He was really crazy, and he actually obeyed Gu Yunxi's words. Lu Jianchuan secretly rolled his eyes at himself, wondering what was wrong with him.

"Okay, I'll go out and wash my hands first." Gu Yun likes to be clean and takes a shower here every day. Now that his hands are stained with ointment, he can't bear it and has to go out to the yard to wash his hands.

"It's dark outside, I'll accompany you out." Lu Jianchuan took the initiative to speak for the first time, and Gu Yunxi was a little surprised.

After thinking about it, it was indeed dark outside, and she was a little scared. What if there was a snake or something, how scary it would be.

She nodded, and the two of them went out to the yard one after another. Lu Jianchuan was walking in front, but accidentally kicked a bucket placed in the middle of the yard.

In the darkness, the bucket was kicked and rolled, and the sound attracted the attention of Mr. He in the main room.

"Who is it? Who is in the yard?" The oil lamp in the main room turned on, and He's voice came from the house.

Lu Jianchuan and Gu Yunxi felt guilty as if they were thieves. You know, Lu Jianchuan had not told his family about the stick he received from Mrs. Gu.

"Mom, it's me, I'll get some water and wash my hands." Lu Jianchuan responded. After a while, the lights in the main room went out.

The two breathed a sigh of relief. They really didn't know what Lu Jianchuan was thinking. She had to hide the beating from her family. Could it be that she was worried that she would be scolded by the He family?

Thinking of this, Gu Yunxi shook his head violently. He treated her like a family member and scolded her? It can't be.

Lu Jianchuan used a gourd made of gourd to scoop a ladle of water from the water tank, and helped Gu Yunxi pour the water while letting her wash her hands.

After washing his hands, Gu Yunxi walked in front, Lu Jianchuan walked in the back, and then the two of them walked back into the house one after another.

"I turned out the lights."

"Okay." The two of them lay down, but Gu Yunxi had no other thoughts about Lu Jianchuan.

At this time, she was thinking about what happened during the day. The price of one tael of silver for that box of ointment really irritated her.

In this era, medicinal herbs are valuable. Even though I rely on painting, I can still make a few taels of silver every month. This is much better than many people.

But the Lu family was so poor that they didn't even have a bathroom to take a shower. The walls inside the house were leaky, and the thatch on the roof was so dark that the original color could no longer be seen.

It's early autumn now, and the rice in the fields is about to be harvested. The Lu family's two acres of paddy fields are all the family's rations.

well! Now there is an urgent need to make money. With money, he can eat meat every day, so that the Lu family can build a new house, have a bathroom, and don't have to worry about anyone outside when taking a bath.

It would be great if I could get some herb seedlings from somewhere. What if I try and actually grow them?

Gu Yunxi sighed, he was really too sleepy, and fell into sleep after thinking about it.
