Gu Yi took the porcelain vase out again, and Dr Yao stared straight ahead, swallowing twice even, but his body did not move out of the way.
Although mint oil is good, but those medical books are his life, mint oil he can go ask for some for Miss Song some other time, life can’t be lost.
Gu Yi’s words broke his illusion, “This is the only bottle the little girl has at home, everything else is sold.”
“Young, young master ……”
“Alright, I know you value those medical books more than your life, I won’t make it hard for you, I don’t want the medical books, you go those good herbs for me.”
Give whatever you want as long as you don’t want the medical books.
Doctor Yao turned around quickly and went to get it, Gu Yi took the opportunity to go into the study, took the book nearest to the door out and shoved it into Xiao Si.
This was done in a fluid manner, without the slightest hint of panic.
When he sat back in his chair, Dr. Yao, breathing heavily, took a lot of herbs and put them on the table, reaching for the porcelain vase on the table.
Gu Yi was quick to grab it in his hand and gave him a fierce glare. Dr. Yao smiled sarcastically and reached out to him with both hands slightly bent.
Gu Yi simply did not have the eyes to see, and again glared at him fiercely, “Go get a porcelain vase.”
Dr. Yao froze, then reacted to what Gu Yi said, his beard curled up in joy and he ran to get the porcelain vase.
Xiao Si took advantage of this and hurriedly put away the medical books stuffed into him.
Dr. Yao brought over a porcelain bottle about the same size as the one in Gu Yi’s hand and joyfully lifted it onto the table, Gu Yi uncorked the bottle in his hand and put two drops inside.
Dr. Yao,……
eyes looked at him blearily.
Gu Yi capped the bottle, “I was going to pour more for you, but look at your petty stamina ……”
The first thing he did was to put the porcelain bottle in his hand carefully on the table, and then turn and run out quickly, and in a short while he came back carrying a pocket full of herbs, and gently put it on the floor, he had just collected a batch of good herbs he had grown a few days ago, and hadn’t had time to dispose of them all.
Gu Yi was satisfied and gave him half a porcelain bottle directly to him.
Doctor Yao grasped it in his hands with joy, “Many thanks, young master.”
Gu Yi put the porcelain bottle back into his arms with a meaty face, instructed Xiao Si to carry the sack out the door, and after getting on the carriage, instructed, “Go to the workshop.”
It was getting late and the coachman was preparing to send the Song family back when Gu Yi’s carriage came over and stopped, Gu Yi got off the carriage and told Xiao Si to put the sacks and medical books on this side of the carriage, “Grandparents, auntie, these are all that little girl needs, you take them back.”
What the sacks were, they didn’t know, Xu only saw the medical books, they shouldn’t be too valuable, and they were what Song Wangyue wanted, so she said thank you and accepted them.
Only when their carriage was far away did Gu Yi get back on the carriage, calling out to Xiao Si to enter the carriage, handing him the porcelain bottle with half a bottle of peppermint oil, telling him to hold it steady, and taking out the other bottle himself, uncorking it and pouring it into this bottle.
“This is to be given to father and mother, I can’t be generous with this, can I?”
Xiao Si,……
Just pouring, the carriage arrived at the door of the house and stopped, Gu Yi held a porcelain vase in one hand and got off the carriage, running towards the main courtyard, “Father, mother, I’ve brought you something good!”
Master Gu and Madam Gu were sitting in the flower hall talking, and when they heard his voice they looked towards the door at the same time.
Gu Yi ran in the door, “Father, Mother, this is the peppermint oil that Little Girl made, a bottle for each of you.”
Mrs Gu smiled and took it in her hand, “Miss Song has a heart.”
Master Gu was about to take it too, but Gu Yi’s hand ducked, “Father, I’ll teach you how to use it.”
Master Gu took back his hand with a smile.
Gu Yi uncorked the bottle, poured a little into his left hand and used his right pinky finger to dab a little on Master Gu’s temple.
Master Gu’s spirit visibly lifted.
Gu Yi wanted this effect, wiped the rest on the other side of Master Gu’s temple, along with said, “Little girl made a large jar, I wanted to buy it for five hundred taels, but she and Uncle Song said they didn’t want to take advantage of our family and wouldn’t sell it to me, they had to come over tomorrow to make it for us.”
Master Gu’s eyes lit up, “Did Miss Song say what she wanted to prepare?”
“A clean altar, strong wine and fresh mint.”
“Lai Zhong!”
The servant guarding the door entered.
“Go and prepare all that the young master has just said.”
“Prepare some more.” Gu Yi instructed.
Lai Zhong answered and withdrew.
Gu Yi sat down on a chair to the side, “Father, this is what the little girl’s family uses to sell for money, we can’t let her do it for nothing.”
Master Gu stroked his beard and nodded, “You are right, yes we can’t let her do it for nothing, this way, we give ……”
Before the words were finished, he was interrupted by Gu Yi, “They won’t want the silver, otherwise, send them ten jars of good wine.”
Master Gu huffed backwards with heartache.
He had no other hobbies, but loved good wine, and the ones in the wine cellar were all those that he had managed to have scavenged, and the cheapest jars were worth a hundred taels each.
“Yi’er, father can’t even afford to drink those wines, how about this, father has someone go and pull the good wines from the restaurant?”
The wine in the tavern was also good, the little girl should be able to use it to make peppermint oil, Gu Yi nodded, “That’s fine.”
Elder Gu breathed a sigh of relief.
……
When they arrived home, Xu gave Song Wan Yue the medical book in her hand and pointed to the sack holding the herbs, “This is also what Young Master Gu told you to give, saying you needed it.”
Song Wan Yue opened the sack and raised her eyebrows when she saw the herbs inside.
Xu’s few people had smelled it on the carriage and thought it was just ordinary herbs, “Handle it yourself, mother will go and help brush out the porcelain vase.”
Song Ming’s daughter-in-law still sends fresh mint every day, although the quantity is small, there is enough to make a small jar of mint oil, today brush out the small porcelain vase to dry, pour out the mint oil, tomorrow buy some wine and come back, we can still make some more.
Song Wan Yue got the sack back into the house and put the medical book on the table, imagining Gu Yi stealing the medical book when Dr. Yao wasn’t looking, and smiled dumbly.
……
The Song family brushed and dried the porcelain bottles, filled them with peppermint oil, and were all overjoyed to see that there were more than 2,000 bottles, all of them excitedly gathered around the half-yard of porcelain bottles, no one wanted to go to bed.
One bottle is 100 yuan, how much silver would this much be sold for?
“Old man, why do I feel like I’m dreaming.”
After a day in the workshop and a lot of porcelain bottles, Grandma Song didn’t feel tired at all, but felt full of energy, and she didn’t feel tired after three days and nights of work.
Master Song also felt like a dream, half a month ago the family was still worried about the silver for Song Lin’s leg injury, and in a flash, his family was “richer than the country”.
Dang!
It was like something fell off the wall.
“Who?”
Song Shu droned and ran out the door.
