The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 457
[Chapter 457 Placement]
Gu Ye embarrassed his forehead, stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile, “I’ll let someone settle you in the outer courtyard first. I’ve just arrived in the capital, and some plans are just budding. You live in the mansion first. , if you need any medicinal materials, just go to Jimin Hall to pick it up and put it on my account. If you have any questions, it’s best to sort them out and answer them when I’m free. Uh… Do you have any questions?”
“… “Lin Nuo was silent for a moment, looking at her hesitantly, wondering if he should make this request. However, he really couldn’t make himself happy among the wealthy and let his mother endure hardship in a broken shack. Seeing this, Yueyuan
hurriedly said: “If you have any requirements, just ask the girl directly. Our girls are kind-hearted and can help you. We will never stand by.”
Well, this time I came to Beijing, the disciple was worried that she would stay in her hometown alone, so they brought her along and placed her in Nancheng. Disciple…” Lin Nuo said halfway through, and was embarrassed to speak later. How can anyone be a drug boy and bring their mother?
Gu Ye thought for a while and said: “Well, my grandfather has an unused yard nearby. You take your mother to live there first. Full moon, you take Lin Nuo to Gu’s house to recognize the door, and Aunt Fu Bofu. Let me explain.”
“Thank you, Master!” Lin Nuo knew that no matter how many words he knew, he couldn’t express his gratitude to Miss Gu. He would keep it in his heart and repay it with his actions.
Yueyuan rented a carriage and accompanied Lin Nuo to pick up her mother in the south of the city. For this big medicine fair, Mother Lin sold almost all of her family property, and saved all the way to the capital.
Lin Nuo’s identity as a third-level pharmacist can live in Tongpu for free at the Pharmacist’s Inn. The post house also provided hospitality to the family of the pharmacist, but they charged five cents a day for the house.
Mother Lin was distressed about money, so she went out to find a place to live. In the shack area in the south of the city, she found a shelter that could shelter from the wind and rain, and it only took ten days for five big money. In order not to sit and eat, she also found a job of starching and washing clothes, and she had to walk back and forth for two hours every day. These, she is hiding from her son!
Lin Nuo jumped out of the carriage at the most dilapidated part of the shack area, said “wait a moment” to Yue Yuan, then bent down and walked through the shacks to find the shack where her mother lived. There was no one in the shed, and after inquiring with an old woman next to me, I learned that my mother was going to help people with work every day, and she went there for a whole day. Often after coming back, I fell asleep when I was so tired that I didn’t even bother to take a sip of water.
Lin Nuo clenched his fists tightly, holding back the tears in his eyes. He is really unfilial. In order to pursue a further step in the pharmaceutical industry, he only concentrates on practicing, ignoring the financial situation of his family.
The mother is not in good health, and has been dragging the sick body to maintain the family’s livelihood, trying every means to support his ideals. After changing the child from another family, at his age, he has long taken up the responsibility of the family! He was too selfish…
After asking where his mother was, he got out of the shack again.
The full moon stood beside the carriage, seemingly out of tune with the people and things around her. Around her, there were hunched old people and ragged children in the distance. They looked enviously at the carriage beside her and the clothes on her.
An elderly old woman, holding a scrawny little girl, gathered her courage and approached, and asked with sincerity: “Miss, do you want to buy a maid? My little granddaughter is very sensible and capable, and only needs five hundred big money. ”
Yueyuan slowly shook his head and said, “I’m just a servant girl, I can’t be the master. I’m really sorry!”
After Lin Nuo came out, an old man grabbed him and whispered: “Little pharmacist, are you developed? He even got into the carriage and summoned the maid. Tsk tsk, look at that maid’s clothes, made of muslin, embroidered with flowers, and the silver hairpin on her head is worth several taels of silver? It’s a maid, and everyone believes that she is a lady from a rich family!”
Lin Nuo smiled bitterly and said, “Old man, you look down on me too much. I just found a job, the master has a good heart, and sent this maid. Sister came to help me get some things.”
“That’s good too! Look at the maid’s dress and look, you know that your master is very good to the servants, and you are blessed, little pharmacist.” The old man was envious.
“Old man, I’m in a hurry to pick up my mother, I’m leaving!” Lin Nuo had packed all the luggage left by her mother in the shack, and was about to pick up her mother and go directly to Gu’s house in Xicheng.
Mother Lin, who was helping to starch and wash clothes at the main house, heard the little girl’s message that her son was looking for her. She thought something was wrong, so she quickly wiped her hands and trotted out.
Lin Nuo looked at the skinny mother, her temples were already dyed with frost, and because her eyes had been needlework for a long time, she could only see clearly when she squinted. His nose was sour, he went up to him and choked up and said, “Mother, I have found the master. The master is kind-hearted and is allowed to bring his family. I came to pick you up specially!
” He asked, “What about the pharmaceutical you’ve spent years working on? It’s just so abandoned? Didn’t you say that you hope to be admitted to an intermediate-level pharmacist this year? It’s a pity to give up! Don’t worry about money, mother. I will find a way, mother doesn’t want you to give up now and regret it in the future!”
“Mother, I did not give up studying medicine. My master is a very powerful pharmacist, and I am a medicine boy by his side, not only taking care of what I eat. If you live here, you can also learn more subtle pharmaceutical techniques. Oh, by the way, the medicinal materials for practicing medicine are also provided for free!” Lin Nuo held her mother’s arm and helped her to the carriage.
Behind them, a grumpy-faced old woman shouted fiercely: “Mr. Lin, no matter how hard you grind, you won’t be able to get a single drop of your salary today! You grind all day long and work hard , I shouldn’t have been looking for you in the first place!” Lin
Nuo frowned and glared at her coldly: “We don’t want the wages, and we won’t come back in the future! You see who is easy to use, who to go to!”
She was a little reluctant to give up today’s wages. She washed her clothes for half a day and could get two or three coins! However, with her son by her side, she wanted to take into account his feelings, so she didn’t say anything and followed her into the carriage obediently.
The carriage galloped all the way, and after half an hour, it arrived at the house of the Gu family in the west of the city. The Gu family’s house was given by the royal family. Although it wasn’t very big, it wasn’t too bad either. The yard with three entrances has five rooms in the east and west, and the yard is quite open.
There was no master living in the house, only Fu Bo and Aunt Fu were left to guard the gate and take care of the yard. Fu Bo is Gu Xiao’s soldier. He has injured his leg and walks little by little. However, his skills are not bad, and he beat the thieves who came in through the wall.
