The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 17
[Chapter Seventeen]
Gu Ming looked for her sister for a long time, I was so hungry that I was beating drums. He devoured the cake and rolled his eyes in choking.
Because the original owner had a bad stomach, Gu Ye developed the habit of chewing and swallowing slowly. Seeing that her brother was choking, she hurriedly took out two copper plates from her arms: “Brother, there is a soup noodle seller over there, let’s buy one. The bowl has soup and water, and you will feel warm when you drink it.”
Gu Ming finally swallowed the cake in his throat. Seeing the copper plate in his sister’s hand, he asked in surprise: “Sister, where did you get the money? It’s not stealing from Liu, right? That mother-in-law is the most stingy. If you stole her copper plate, you will definitely die. I beat you in here!”
Gu Ye rolled his arrogant little white eyes at him and said, “Who stole her money? It’s not like you don’t know, that woman can’t wait to sleep with a money jar in her arms, how could she steal it from others? A chance for money? This is the herb I picked. It was hidden on the back mountain to dry. It was sold to the money shopkeeper yesterday for a few pennies. Go! I’ll invite you to eat noodle soup!”
“Don’t! Don’t go!! Look! Today, if you go out of the city now, it is very dangerous to find a place to sleep. With these few coins, let’s find a big car shop that is a little bit off for a night, it’s better than sleeping on the street!” If he was alone , just find a bridge that shelters from the wind and it will be done overnight. But my sister is weak, and the cold wind blows at night, what can I do if I get sick?
While they were talking, the eyes of the two went dark, and a piece of silver appeared in front of the brother and sister. Looking up, it was a fourteen- or fifteen-year-old boy, wearing an ice-blue satin robe, with a face like a crown of jade and eyes like stars. What a handsome young man! Gu Ye’s star eyes lit up, and his aunt smiled!
“Uh… this son, we are not beggars.” Gu Ming’s little self-esteem was hurt. Looking down at my sister and myself, the image of squatting on the side of the road and eating pancakes in shabby and short clothes is not much different from the beggar who is leaning against the wall and basking in the sun. No wonder someone throws money at them.
Chu Mubo was stunned for a moment by the little girl’s bright eyes, and couldn’t help but praised in his heart: What a pair of big, clear, black eyes, like deep pools of water, clear and flawless. I don’t know what his sister will look like, will she also have such outstanding eyes?
“I know! Congratulations on finding your sister! To tell you the truth, my brother and I came out to find my sister. However, we are not as lucky as you, and our sister still doesn’t know where she is!” Chu Mubai’s face showed a lonely look, “This piece of silver is to congratulate you on finding your sister. How can you just eat the cake? Take it and buy a bowl of wontons for your sister to eat!”
“Thank you, little brother!” Gu Ye smiled and stretched out his little paw , took the piece of silver and said, “Little brother, you are really a good person. Good people have good rewards, and you will definitely find your sister.”
Chu Mubo looked at the thin face in front of him, and for a moment Shocked, alertly, this little face was a little familiar. For some reason, he had an inexplicable affection for her in his heart.
He must be looking for his sister to find Mozheng, everyone thinks he looks like his sister. They have relatives and elder brothers, and they look like they are only eight or nine years old. His sister is already twelve years old, how could it be their treasure? Looking at the back of the young man
in Chinese clothing leaving, Gu Ming looked at his sister who was playing with the broken silver.
Now, congratulations on the reunion of our brothers and sisters! Brother, they were almost sold into Hualou, and we almost never see each other again, shouldn’t we be shocked?” Gu Ye weighed the broken silver, thinking about whether to use a spring scale to weigh it. weighed. However, it looks more than what Fat Tooth gave to Liu.
Hearing that, Gu Ming almost burst into tears again, holding her sister’s hand tightly and reluctant to part. Where do you still care about money or not?
The two brothers and sisters shared a bowl of wontons and finished the cake in their hands. They went to a remote car shop to stay overnight, and set foot on the way back to the village early the next morning.
On the way back, when I was staying in the big courtyard, it was inevitable that I met Gu Qiao and Liu Shi. Seeing the two with blue noses and swollen faces, Gu Ye’s heart blossomed with joy. After Gu Ming showed a hint of surprise, he quickly regained his indifference. If you do bad things, you will be punished sooner or later.
Seeing Gu Ye, Liu Shi rushed over with an “Ow” and screamed: “It turns out that you are a bum star, you have no conscience, so that my father and I were beaten up and robbed. I’ll kill you, you evil spirit!!”
Gu Ye dexterously jumped to the side, and gently hooked his toes to Liu’s ankle. Liu Shi’s plump body fell heavily to the ground, and the ground seemed to tremble a few times.
“You are the conscientious murderer!! You tricked your sister into the town and sold her for money. You are the most cruel stepmother in the world!! I tell you, you were beaten. This is retribution!! Those who do bad things will be retributed sooner or later!!”
Gu Ming rushed over, stepped on Liu’s hand fiercely, and stood in front of his sister, like an angry little lion. Not strong but fearless.
The people who stayed in the compound were all simple mountain people, and upon hearing this, they turned their accusing eyes on Liu Shi, who managed to get up.
Liu Shi was busy arguing: “Shut up for me!! I’m good for this bitch, think about it, if a lady from a big family chooses to be a personal girl, she will fall into the nest of blessings. Not to mention the spicy ones, the monthly reward is enough for the family to eat for a whole year and there is still leftover! Hoarseness is cheap, and you don’t know how to enjoy it!!”
“But… Me and a few other sisters are sold to the kiln! Dad, where is the kiln? Is that where the mother said, you can get enough food, clothes, clothes, and money?” Gu Ye deliberately widened his pure and flawless eyes, He looked at Gu Qiao with a puzzled expression.
The angry eyes of the surrounding villagers saw Gu Qiao’s face burning hot. He hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to speak.
Although Gu Ming didn’t know where the “kiln” was, from the big guy’s expression, he guessed that it was definitely not a good place to go. He pulled his sister angrily and said, “Don’t call her mother, she is not our mother, she is not worthy!!”
“Why am I not worthy? I’m married to your father Mingmi, you two unfilial sons of a bitch, you have been raising you for so many years, two white-eyed wolves, black-hearted…” Frowning.
“Swearing is a rotten tongue!!” When Liu Shi was tired of scolding and gasping for breath, Gu Ye suddenly spoke clearly and loudly.
“You are a rotten tongue! You black-hearted loser, you are rotten from head to toe, and you are rotten into a ball of blood, even a wolf is not willing to chew…” If this dead girl hadn’t escaped, how could she have suffered from the flesh and blood suffering? Thinking of the 2 taels of silver that was snatched back after getting it, Liu felt like someone had dug a piece of meat out of her heart, and she wanted to pounce on her and bite her in pain.
“Brother, let her continue scolding! Do you remember, she became dumb after scolding us last time, and she couldn’t speak for more than a month. It really doesn’t have a long memory!!” Gu Ye took his brother and walked around from a distance. Pass Liu’s and walk towards the shed.
“Damn girl, stop for me! You uneducated, elders are talking to you, where are you going?” Liu Shi was so angry that he reached out and grabbed Gu Ye.
Gu Ye took a step away, gave her a cold look, and said, “Are you talking to me? Which words are you talking about? I’m uneducated, because I have a mother and no mother!!
” A black-hearted broom star, how come you don’t have a mother anymore? Your stepmother is also a mother!!” Liu Shi saw the corner of the pancake exposed in her arms with sharp eyes, and unexpectedly reached out and grabbed it, and said loudly, “Good guy, still hiding What to eat. Your father and I haven’t eaten for a whole day, and when we have food, we don’t know how to honor our parents, you two white-eyed wolves with no conscience!”
“Give it back to me, that’s my brother and I’s dry food tomorrow, Give it back to me quickly!!” When they left the city, the brothers and sisters bought two more cooking biscuits as dry food, and Gu Ye carried them in his arms, but they actually put them in the space. Just now, she picked out a bottle of potion from the laboratory with her mind, added ingredients to a pancake, and deliberately showed it to Liu Shi. Sure enough, the pancake with the medicine fell into Liu’s hands.
Liu shi pushed her away, broke apart the pancake, and handed the big piece to the man’s hand, saying, “Eat it! Don’t let the two little brats grab it! Go away, what’s yours! All of you! Everything is given by the old lady! If you make trouble again, I will see that the old lady can’t beat you to death!”
As she said that, the woman opened her mouth wide and bit into the pancake. Not only the two taels of silver, but also the copper plates they carried were snatched away by two big hands of Ya Po. The couple had the cheek to spend the night in a village outside the town last night, without any dry food. After a day’s drive, I was so hungry that my chest was on my back.
“Sister, don’t rob them, I still have two meat buns hidden in my back basket! Let’s rest early, we have to hurry tomorrow!” Gu Ming stopped his sister and whispered in her ear.
“Little girl, come here, you can still sleep two people in a crowded place!” The shed was already crowded with people who came first, and a daughter-in-law, who looked like Futai in the innermost part, squeezed her man aside to make room for one empty of people. She beckoned to the poor little brother and sister, her eyes full of sympathy.
“Thank you, Auntie!” Although Gu Ye didn’t like to be crowded with others, there was really no empty space in the shed. In this late autumn weather, if you sleep outside, it must be freezing enough. Comparing the two, she had no choice but to walk towards the Futai daughter-in-law resignedly.
Gu Ming knew that her sister didn’t like to be next to strangers, so she let her lie in the innermost corner, blocking herself between her and others. Gu Qiao and Liu Shi ate half of the pancake by themselves. Seeing that they couldn’t squeeze in the shed, they had to find a sheltered corner in the courtyard, spread a layer of straw, and leaned against each other to keep warm. When Liu Shi ate the pancakes, he had garlic, and even his breath smelled of garlic, which made Gu Qiao feel nauseous.
All tired, and soon there was a snoring sound in the shed. Gu Ye lay on the ground covered with thick straw, glanced in Liu’s direction, and showed a condensed smile.
