Today is New Year's Day, the weather is sunny, and it rarely snows.
As usual, Mr. Wu inspected the first-class wards, went to the warehouse to check the inventory, and then went straight out of Changzhou Pharmacy and headed to the south of the city.
There is a butcher shop there with fair prices, good meat quality, and a very prosperous business. They often have to restock twice a day, and they barely sell until dark.
Mr. Wu often goes there to buy meat.
The butcher shop owner is a lean man, even though he is wrapped in several layers of thick cotton clothes, he is still a few laps smaller than others. The man has a long face, like a shoehorn, and many people secretly call him a shoehorn face.
When the butcher shop owner saw Mr. Wu coming, he greeted him warmly, "It's Mr. Wu. What would you like to eat today? The meat just arrived and it's fresh!"
"Let me take a look." Mr. Wu picked up the wooden tongs, picked from left to right, picked up a few pieces of good-quality mutton, and put them on the chopping board. "Pack these up, and pack two kilograms of soy sauce beef. I want to bring it with me." Let’s go. Then send two hundred catties of mutton and one hundred catties of mutton chops to the pharmacy for dumplings at night.”
"Okay!" The butcher shop owner quickly wrapped the pieces of mutton chosen by Mr. Wu in lotus leaves, then turned around and went to the back room. Not long after, he came out with another lotus leaf bag, "Mr. Wu , as per the old rules, half fat and half fat, half fat and half fat. They are all freshly baked and still hot!"
Mr. Wu smiled and took the two lotus leaf bags.
Just when he was about to say something, the butcher shop owner spoke first: "They are all jelly-skinned, so they taste delicious! I will send the mutton chops to the pharmacy later and settle the bill together. I understand this."
Mr. Wu nodded, "Then I'll take the first step."
"Mr. Wu, please go slowly!" the butcher shop owner chuckled.
Mr. Wu went to buy some more carrots and white radish, and also ordered some from the pharmacy, and then he went to his destination with peace of mind.
As for the herbs used to stew the mutton, you don’t have to worry about this the least. I own a pharmacy, so I still need this?
I just checked it myself this morning.
Mr. Wu walked out of Yunshui City directly from the south gate.
Now that the weather is freezing and the New Year is approaching, very few people are leaving the city. The two guards guarding the South City Gate were a little surprised. Why didn't Mr. Wu, who was famous throughout the city, stay in Cheung Chau Pharmacy today instead of going out of the city?
Isn't it hard to think about hiding in a drugstore to keep warm and running out to be cold?
However, the two guards did not stop Mr. Wu and asked him to register before letting him out of the city.
joke? Who is Mr. Wu? Who dares to stop him? Are you tired of living?
Not to mention Mr. Wu's personal influence, just speaking of him personally, his good manners and good temper allow you to open the door because of his own self-cultivation and etiquette, which is not a compliment. If Mr. Wu is really offended, his superb medical skills are not just for show. With a little punishment and a few acupuncture points, it would probably be uncomfortable for several days. Not to mention that if you have a small disaster or a serious illness, if you offend Mr. Wu, at least half of the pharmacies in Yunshui City will blacklist you. I can cure the disease, but my face doesn't look very good.
Besides, Mr. Wu had a lot of fun talking with the city's main forces and figures such as the City Lord's Mansion, Yitang, Liuzhai, etc., and his relationship was not to mention. If you want to have a chance with them, you can try provoking Mr. Wu.
It's just that if you try it, you will die, and it will easily affect your family.
Mr. Wu walked to a place and after making sure that no one was around, he took a step and went directly to the entrance of Lingding Alley.
Mr. Wu glanced at the alley with disgust. Even the heavy snow could not cover the mess inside. If he hadn't asked for something else, he would never have set foot here for the second time.
One visit to this kind of place is too many.
Mr. Wu closed his eyes and felt for a while, then he knew how to leave.
In front of a wooden house with the door wide open, Mr. Wu stopped, then looked at the wooden house up and down, and couldn't help but sneer.
Mr. Wu walked straight into the wooden house and looked at the three people in the house.
Bai Xiaoxiao, Lao Liutou, Brother Peng.
Old Liu Tou was sitting opposite the door, so when Mr. Wu came in, Old Liu Tou saw him at first sight.
Old Liu Tou sneered, "Why, are you here to ask for food? I don't have any leftovers here."
Mr. Wu glanced at the rice noodles cooked with wild vegetables in the bowls of the three of them, and retorted: "You are going to give this to your children on New Year's Day today? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Old Liu Tou's eyes were full of indifference, "It's none of your business?"
Old Wu snorted coldly, and his cold eyes collided with Old Liu's head somewhere in mid-air.
The atmosphere in the venue instantly became tense.
Brother Peng laughed awkwardly and put down his chopsticks, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Wu, I'm full and I'm going to wash the dishes first."
Lao Liu nodded, ate the last bite of rice noodles, and handed the bowl to Brother Peng.
Brother Peng took the bowl and winked at Bai Xiaoxiao when he stood up, telling her to eat somewhere else quickly so as not to be involved in this silent smoke.
But Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't understand. He blinked at Brother Peng and sat there sucking rice noodles, not knowing why.
Brother Peng was a little helpless, but he turned around and left.
Mr. Wu flicked his fingers and shot out a ray of light, pointing directly at Brother Peng, "Take these meats and process them, and make dumplings for dinner tonight."
Brother Peng caught it with his backhand, but immediately froze on the spot, looking at the two lotus leaf bags in his hands at a loss, looking at Old Liu Tou as if asking for help.
Old Liu Tou's eyes were full of vigilance, staring straight at Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu chuckled, "Don't worry, I don't mean any harm, I just want to have a good snack. Otherwise, in the middle of winter, on such a festive day as New Year's Day, I will have to eat miserably without any oily flowers." thing."
Old Liu Tou said in a deep voice: "Are you so kind?"
"believe it or not!"
Old Liu thought for a moment and nodded.
Brother Peng received the order and immediately ran to the kitchen happily.
It’s meat! The last time I ate meat was during the winter solstice.
It's been so long...
Looking at Brother Peng's worthless appearance, Mr. Wu couldn't help but sneer, "You have turned a good piece of silk into the rag it is now. I'm ashamed of you."
"As long as people are happy with it." Old Liu Tou said calmly.
Just when Mr. Wu wanted to refute something, Old Liu Tou, who was sitting across from him, suddenly changed his expression. Even Bai Xiaoxiao, who was quietly slurping the rice noodles with relish, dropped his bowls and chopsticks and rushed towards him. door.
"Brother! You are finally back!"
The joy on Bai Xiaoxiao's face could not be concealed, and her big eyes became misty with tears due to excitement. Bai Xiaoxiao hugged Bai Gu's thigh and hugged Bai Gu tightly with all his strength, fearing that Bai Gu would disappear in the next second.
The visitor was none other than Bai Gu, who had been lying under the light barrier of Changzhou Pharmacy for more than ten days.
Bai Gu smiled slightly and gently rubbed Bai's little head, "You still love to cry so much."
Bai Gu raised his head again and said loudly: "Grandpa Liu, Mr. Wu, I'm fine and I'm back."
Mr. Wu quickly turned his head, and after confirming that it was Bai Gu, his eyes were full of astonishment.
Although there are many restrictions here, my perception can still "monitor" everything in Changzhou Pharmacy from dozens of miles away.
Including the 19th ward where Bai Gu is located.
But why, when Bai Gu woke up and walked back to Lingding Alley from Changzhou Pharmacy, he didn't feel anything at all?
Even when Bai Gu was standing at the door just now, he still waited for Bai Xiaoxiao's scream to sound before turning around to find Bai Gu.
What's happening here?
With his own cultivation and perception, he can't control a little Bai Gu?
Who can believe this!
It’s really the most ridiculous thing in the world!
Compared with Mr. Wu, Mr. Liu Tou behaved a little calmer. Although he was a little surprised, he still nodded and said: "It's okay, just come back."
A family should be reunited.
It would be nice to be back in time.
