When the weather cleared up in the afternoon, Su Ruyi went to Hu Langzhong to explain the situation.
Hu Langzhong agreed without saying a word.
"I thought you were studying acupuncture so hard just to treat them two."
Su Ruyi said: "I do think so, but if another doctor can cure their disease in advance, I would certainly be more happy."
She wasn't completely sure that she could cure Dan'er and Big Brother. Besides, she didn't study medicine to show off her power. As long as she could cure the disease, it didn't matter whether it was cured by others or by herself.
After coming out of Hu Langzhong's place, I contacted the only donkey cart in the village for one hundred coins and sent them to Tongzhou City tomorrow.
After returning home, Su Ruyi said hello to her family, then went into her room and closed the door.
I grabbed the "Pulse Journal", cork and acupuncture kit, and entered the space.
I can see that the learning environment inside is much better than outside.
Although the small table and stools under the walnut tree are a little smaller, they are still enough. You can put a pot of tea, a bowl of cucumbers and tomatoes, and enjoy reading and studying.
The backyard of the space has not changed much. What it looked like before is still what it looks like now. There are still many empty spaces that are not used.
There have been quite a few changes inside the cabin.
Recently, Lu Duotian's weaving skills have made some progress, and the baskets have been weaved one by one. The more they are made, the more beautiful they are. Su Ruyi took a lot of them into the space and arranged them neatly along the wall. All the herbs were not divided into categories, but all at once. Put them all into those baskets.
This is the amount that is collected automatically every day. A little adds up to a big basket. It is now three to four times what I sold last time, and it is worth four or five taels of silver.
In addition to herbs, there are vegetables, but these are only the vegetables that are used at the moment, such as pumpkins, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, and the rest are basically growing in the ground. Su Ruyi has been too busy recently and has not been able to monetize these resources in the space.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of money now.
Finally, there is the shallow vat in the corner. The sheep in it have been taken out of space by Su Ruyi in small quantities and many times, making soup and cooking.
A slaughtered sheep weighs about fifty or sixty kilograms with bones and meat, half of the bones, but actually not much meat. Driven by Su Ruyi's desire to eat, there was only one sheep head left in the tank.
It happened that I went to Tongzhou this time. When I came back, I took out the sheep head and said that I bought it in Tongzhou. Then I bought some mutton and pork to put away. She couldn't eat enough meat. If the cattle were not allowed to be slaughtered, she would still buy it. Put a lot of beef in the space and make it into beef jerky. Eat some when you have nothing to do.
Thinking about it makes me greedy.
The three big bags of wheat brought from the Luo family next to the shallow vat are still untouched. They can be exchanged for white flour when they go to Tongzhou.
In another corner is Su Ruyi's treasure box. The box contains silver and copper coins. The copper coins are hung with strings and strings in a consistent manner, and are neatly arranged in the box. The box is not big, and now it is almost occupied by the copper coins. It’s full. This time when I go to Tongzhou, I need to change the copper coins into silver appropriately to save space and make it easier to carry.
Su Ruyi moved the large basket of herbs to the yard, poured them on the ground, sorted them by category, and spread them out to dry.
The wooden house has the function of preserving freshness. Because it has been kept in the wooden house, these herbs are always as fresh as the ones they were dug out.
There are so many fresh and precious herbs for sale, which inevitably makes the medicine shop feel strange. After drying, they say that they have been accumulated for a long time, which is not easy to make people suspicious.
I'll go to Tongzhou tomorrow and look for an opportunity to exchange these herbs for money.
After finishing these things, I sat down at the table and opened the acupuncture bag, picked up the piece of cork that was riddled with holes, and continued practicing step by step.
The evening was filled with a sense of tension and joy that was about to celebrate the New Year.
After having an early dinner, Zhang and Liu Cuier began to prepare the luggage for the group to go out tomorrow, the clothes to wear tomorrow, dry food to eat on the road, and water to drink.
Early the next morning, the donkey cart from the village arrived.
Mrs. Zhang hurriedly asked Liu Cuier to put the mattress prepared last night on the car floor. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law worked together to lift Lu Duotian to the car and lay down. Lu Duotian seemed embarrassed and his face was a little red.
"Tui'er, go get me another straw hat. I'm afraid the sun will burn my eyes."
Lu Duotian propped himself up with his arms and said.
"Okay, don't move."
Liu Cuier turned around to look for straw hats, but Dalang had already heard her father's instructions and quickly brought a few over.
Mrs. Zhang grabbed the driver and told him to slow down.
Not long after, Hu Langzhong came with his eldest grandson Hu Yun.
Everyone else got on the car, and Su Ruyi also climbed up. Mrs. Zhang handed the egg to her: "When you can't hold it anymore, let your sister-in-law hold it. Don't be too pretentious and drop the egg again!" "
Su Ruyi said: "Mom, I know, I am reliable now!"
The driver raised his whip and shouted, and the donkey cart walked forward slowly.
Although going to Tongzhou is not far away, it still takes two hours to walk there. Su Ruyi thought that it would be faster to go by car, but she overestimated the speed of the donkey cart. It always felt like walking slower than a human walking. of.
However, there was Lu Duotian with handicapped legs and feet and an elderly man in the car, so it was good to be more cautious.
They set off early and arrived outside Tongzhou City before the sun was at its center.
The coachman pulled the reins: "Are you going in or not? But as promised, if you go in, your family will have to pay for the entrance fee?"
Su Ruyi: "Come in."
The entrance fee, although not counting the egg in my arms, still costs ten cents for the donkey, totaling 70 cents.
Liu Cuier clicked her tongue in her heart, 70 Wen, how many pancakes would it cost to sell...
The donkey cart slowly arrived in front of Dr. Song's shop. Su Ruyi settled the fee with the cart driver and gave him an extra two cents to send the mattress on the cart back to the Lu family.
The driver put the money into his arms and asked, "When will you go back? Do you want me to come and pick you up?"
Although it is far away from Tongzhou, it is much more cost-effective than taking people to the town. There are few people going to the town now, and each person earns one penny. Some bring things with them for one penny, and some have five pence, but they still cannot earn a hundred penny a day.
Su Ruyi: "That's not necessary. We don't know how long we will be delayed in the city, so we won't bother the old man."
The coachman had no choice but to whip his whip and leave with regret.
Xiao Liu, the clerk in the drug store, came out with a smile on his face: "Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Mrs. Su! What are you—"
Xiao Liu was looking forward to Mrs. Su bringing medicinal materials to his family. Unexpectedly, he did not see the medicinal materials, but instead brought several people to him.
Liu Cuier carried Lu Duotian on her back. She was much shorter than her man, and Lu Duotian's feet were still dragging weakly on the ground.
Su Ruyi said: "Brother Xiaoliu, please help me quickly. These two are my eldest brother and sister-in-law."
When Xiao Liu heard this, he quickly stepped forward to pick up the man. He looked at the boss who was tall but not very heavy.
