Gu Ming is athletic, powerful, and has a great talent for learning martial arts, but in learning skiing, he is not as good as a seven or eight-year-old child, clumsy, often wrestling, I don't know how many times he has been teased by Li Hao. People, it is really impossible to be perfect, there are always things that are not good at!

Let's say that the grain purchase team led by Gu Xiao had the medicine and wine to keep out the cold, and they slid to the town in one go, and it was not dark at this time! The villagers praised Gu Xiao, who was the first to "come up" with the idea of snowboarding.

The group slipped into the snow and entered the town. There were few pedestrians on the streets, and the shops on either side closed early. When I arrived at the grain store, the shop was already closed. Gu Xiao knocked on the door of the grain store, and the shopkeeper said impatiently: "What knock, it's already closed, if you buy grain, come back tomorrow." ”

Gu Xiao accompanied the smiling face: "Shopkeeper, we are from the mountains, we have been on the road in the heavy snow for a day, and we will rush back early tomorrow morning." Where, make it easy! ”

The shopkeeper of the grain store waved his hand, and just wanted to drive people away, Zhao Mingxi, the young shopkeeper of Baicaotang not far away, walked over. He was attracted by the strange "means of transportation" in Castle Peak Village.

Zhao Mingxi recognized Gu Xiao, arched his hand at him, said Happy New Year, and said to the grain store shopkeeper: "It's not easy for these villagers, you can work harder, close the door at night, and sell the grain to them." ”

Shopkeeper Li knew that Baicaotang had a strong background, so he had to give him a face: "Okay, for the sake of Shopkeeper Zhao, what kind of food do you need, hurry up." He shouted to the inner hall and called the young man to help weigh the food.

The heavy snow not only blocked the road out of Qingshan Village, but also blocked the road for grain stores to transport grain, and the price of grain rose by nearly double. The coarse grain was originally five wen a catty, but now it is nine wen, and the acquaintance price given by the shopkeeper selling Zhao Mingxi's face is eight wen a catty.

The eight young adults who came, each of them could carry a maximum of 60 catties, and any more movement would be restricted. In addition to sixty catties of coarse grain, Gu Xiao purchased fifty catties of fine grain for his own family. More than 100 catties on his back are like carrying an empty basket on his back, and he moves freely. It made the young people feel ashamed.

In the interval between weighing food, Gu Xiao ran to Jimin Hall and sent the medicinal materials and a package of children's medicine that he brought over.

The wind and snow have been severe for several days, and many people in the town and nearby have been infected with the wind and cold, and because the road has been blocked by heavy snow, the medicinal materials outside cannot be transported in, and the shopkeeper is helpless due to the lack of medicinal materials, Gu Xiao is like a timely rain falling on Jimin Hall.

The shopkeeper saw that all the medicines he brought were for the treatment of symptoms such as wind chills and coughs, which were exactly what they urgently needed. That attitude, the old enthusiasm, almost didn't offer Gu Xiao as a bodhisattva.

At this moment, a woman holding a child came to the store, and the man who looked honest and sturdy behind her should be her man. The child was about four or five years old, and he caught a cold due to playfulness, and the fever was quite serious. She is a person from Shilidian outside the town, and she heard that Jimintang has a special medicine for children, which is very effective and not bitter, so she walked in the snow for a day and rushed over.

The shopkeeper said with a wry smile: "This sister-in-law, our family's children's medicine has been out of stock for several days. Or...... Let our doctor show the child and prescribe some decoction to take home? ”

"Don't take bitter medicine! Mother-" The little one cried. It turned out that the baby had been sick for more than a day or two. There is also an old doctor in their village, and the little guy who prescribed the medicine pinched his nose and drank it for two days, and he was afraid to drink it! It was his mother who coaxed him and said that there was sugar water in the town that could cure the disease, so he obediently asked his mother to hold him.

"Is it really gone? We can give more money. "It's the child's father who speaks. A family of three is wearing seventy or eighty percent of new cotton clothes, and it seems that the family's economic situation should be good.

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "It's not a matter of money or not, the key is that there is no medicine......

Gu Xiao took out the small cloth bag hanging around his neck, handed it to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper Fang, this is what Ye'er asked me to bring here, saying that it is children's medicine." You see, right this child's symptoms. ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly took it and opened it carefully, and there were more than a dozen fist-sized porcelain bottles inside, which were pediatric antipyretics, pediatric cold medicines, children's anti-inflammatory drugs and pediatric cough granules.

"Great! Uncle Gu, your medicine was delivered in a timely manner. The shopkeeper said to the child's parents, "You're in luck! If I had come two days earlier, I would have given a sky-high price, and I would not have been able to conjure up children's medicine. Go ahead and let the doctor show the child! ”

"Don't take bitter medicine!" The child writhed around in his mother's arms, crying like a little cat.

The shopkeeper said in a soft voice: "Good, good, good!" You obediently let the old man take a look, and I'll give you a sweet potion, a sweet water that can cure diseases! ”

The little guy was suspiciously carried to the old gentleman. After diagnosis and treatment, it was confirmed that it was a fever caused by a cold. The shopkeeper opened the two porcelain bottles with his own hands, scooped two small spoonfuls of antipyretic medicine with a small porcelain spoon, scooped a spoonful of powder from the cold medicine, put them in a bowl and washed them with warm boiled water, and let the woman feed the child.

The little guy resisted a little at first, pursing his lips and refusing to drink. When he licked the sweet liquid on his lips, he became very cooperative, and he didn't need to be fed by his mother, he drank the potion clean in a few sips while holding the bowl, and said unsatisfactorily: "It's delicious, and I want it!" ”

"This is medicine, if you eat too much, your stomach will hurt!" The shopkeeper was on the side to scare the little guy. Then he said to the work in the shop, "Arrange for them to stay in the west courtyard." ”

It turned out that in order to ensure that every medicine could be used on the children and prevent people from using the children's medicines, Jimin Tang bought the courtyard next door and provided free accommodation for the children and their parents who traveled far away.

However, you can take care of what you eat. You can bring your own food and give firewood money to make it yourself; You can also pay for food. The couple brought dry food and heated it up in the kitchen for dinner, and the shop provided free boiling water.

"That's right!" The shopkeeper took out a burden and sent it to Gu Xiao and said, "This is brought back by Miss Gu's master." ”

Gu Xiao opened it and saw that it was a set of sweaters. I don't know what kind of fur it is made of, the whole body is snow-white, soft and light, and it should be very warm when worn close-fitting. He stroked the soft fur gently, and was surprised to find that it was warm, as if it were caressing a living creature.

He heard that in the northern part of the Yan Country, there is an animal called "Yan Mink", whose fur can automatically heat up and has a good effect on keeping out the cold. However, this kind of marten moves quickly, fast like lightning, and is difficult to catch. Clothes made of sable fur are almost hard to find.

The old man of the medicine saint must have heard about the snow disaster in the north, and he was afraid that his precious apprentice would freeze, so he got such a set of close-fitting Yan Mink clothes. Gu Xiao once again sighed that his granddaughter worshiped a good master and treated her well. There was also a sense of crisis in my heart - I, who was a grandfather, was actually compared to my granddaughter's master.

No way! Absolutely no!! The little girl kept muttering that she wanted to buy a house in the capital, or ...... He gave the house rewarded by the emperor in the capital to his granddaughter? What the? What about grandchildren? He is a boy, if he can't earn back a house, what else can he talk about making contributions and glorifying his ancestors?

Get! Dare to love this grandson is picked up, and the granddaughter is biological!

After settling the money for the medicine, the shopkeeper graciously retained it. The villagers were waiting in the grain store, Gu Xiaowan refused the kindness of the shopkeeper and returned to the grain store with an empty basket. The food was already weighed, Gu Xiao picked up his share and put it in the basket, and went to the inn with the villagers.

Gu Wen scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Fifth uncle, let's go to the big car shop for one night, the guest house has at least two rooms, and it will cost a lot of money!" ”

"The conditions of the big car shop are not good, everyone is tired for a day, and they have to rush back tomorrow, how can they do it if they don't rest? I paid for the hotel! "The ten years of exile in the frontier have not worn away Gu Xiao's pride.

"What's so embarrassing about that?" Gu Wen looked at the villagers, and he had to excuse himself.

Gu Xiao interrupted what he was about to say next, and walked towards the inn opposite with him: "Don't grind, that's a bit of a gentleman?" In the evening, Uncle Fifth invited everyone to eat hot noodle soup, eat hot, sleep well, there is still a tough battle to fight tomorrow! ”

When I came, the baskets on everyone's backs were empty, and I added dozens or hundreds of pounds of weight when I went back, which must have been harder than when I came. To have a better rest environment, everyone can't ask for it. It's just that the simple mountain man felt a little embarrassed to take advantage of Fifth Uncle Gu.

Li Xiashan, the second son of the village chief, came up with a compromise method: "It's better for us to share the cost of accommodation and food into the food, and then the family will have an extra penny or two." I don't know when this snow will stop, even if it stops, it will take a while for the younger brother to melt, and then I will definitely come out to purchase once or twice, and I can't let the person in charge of purchasing labor and then pay money, right? ”

As soon as everyone heard that this was indeed the reason, they agreed. Gu Wen frowned and asked, "What if some people are not willing to pay more?" ”

"Then let them go out and buy food by themselves!" Li Xiashan made a sonorous and powerful decision.

The conditions of the inn are also rudimentary. The villagers chose a big kang house, a house, with a big kang on each side, and eight or nine people lived on two kangs, but they didn't feel crowded.

The kang was burning hot, and Gu Xiao put the wine bag that was only half left on the kang to warm it. When Gu Wen saw it, he also put his bag on it, and said with a smile: "Fifth uncle, this medicinal wine made by Xiao Yezi is really effective, I still sweat all the way!" ”

After Li Xiashan waited for the wine to warm up, he took a small sip and smacked his lips: "It's really good wine!" The liquor that the third brother brought back from Yancheng is not as strong as this wine! ”

"Second Brother Li, you drink leisurely! When I go back tomorrow, I'll have to warm myself up with it! If yours run out, don't try to steal ours! I'll have to save a little bit and go back and give my dad a try. "Gu Wen is the eldest son of the third grandmother, a very filial child.
