“So you are also going to catch the exam, and so is my elder brother.”
After saying that, Gu Yi couldn’t help but sneeze again, “Ah-choo!”
The man arched his hand at Song Si and got close, “So this gentleman is also going to catch the exams, then we can travel together tomorrow, and we can also take care of each other.”
Song Si’s wary look was withdrawn.
The man added, “I wonder if I can have a look at the pills you two mentioned just now.”
“Oh.”
Song Si was on cloud nine, “It’s a pill that our family made themselves, specifically for wind and cold, and I brought some with me on the way here for fear of any changes in the weather.”
As soon as he heard that it was for wind chill, the man became even more eager, his precious son, who just didn’t like to take medicine, had already dropped the medicine bowl three times today, and his hair was turning white with anxiety.
Again he asked, “May I have a look?”
“Yes, wait a moment, I’ll get it out.”
Song Si went to the house and brought out a few pills.
“Sun Cai!”
The man shouted towards his house.
An old man came out of the house in response, and the man gestured for him to look at the pills.
Sun Cai, who was the House Doctor of the Sun House, understood and picked up a pill and looked at it carefully, smelled it again and put it back into Song Si’s hand, “I wonder if you can sell this pill?”
“Not for sale!”
Gu Yi replied very simply, “We don’t have much with us in the first place, and I’m keeping it for myself.”
“This gentleman ……”
Hearing this from Sun Cai, he knew that the pills might be good, the man was a little anxious and said to Song Si, “Your son and my son are in the same class of candidates, this is also fate, look, can you sell us a few?”
“I can’t sell them, but you’re right, it’s also our fate to be able to be candidates for the same term, so how about this, we’ll give you one.”
Song Si finished and took one to the man.
“This ……”
The man wanted to ask for a few more, today was the fourth day of the month and he had to enter the examination hall on the ninth day. His son was reluctant to drink medicine, and in the past, when he got wind chill, he could not get well without ten days and half a month, so that he would have to go to the examination hall with his illness.
But Sun Cai took it and thanked him, “Master, the young master is still in a temper, let’s go in and have a look.”
Saying this, he gave the man a wink.
Although the man didn’t understand the meaning of his wink, he knew it was related to the pills, so he didn’t insist any further, thanked Song Si and Gu Yi, and went back inside with Sun Cai.
Song Si and Gu Yi also went back, and as soon as they entered the house, Gu Yi couldn’t wait to take credit, “Little girl, I acted well, didn’t I?
Song Wangyue gave him an appreciative thumbs up.
Gu Yi walked over with a smile on his face, “Then can you give me a pill to try?”
Song Wangyue, ……
……
Inside the house over there.
“What’s wrong, is that pill not right?”
Sun Cai said respectfully, “That pill has been processed, I wasn’t able to smell exactly what medicine it was made of, it’s about the young master’s body, we can’t use it indiscriminately.”
The Sun family had been passed down from one generation to the next, and Sun Jin was the only one in this generation, so nothing could be done carelessly.
The man looked at Sun Jin, who was lying on the bed in great discomfort, and asked anxiously, “Do you have a way to test it out?”
“Master, wait a moment.”
Sun Cai put the pills into a bowl and poured water, the pills quickly melted away, he picked them up and smelled them carefully, took another small sip and smacked them in his mouth for a while, then his eyes lit up and he put the bowl down, “Master, this is indeed a medicine for wind and cold.”
“Then what are you waiting for,”
The man lifted his feet and walked outside, Sun Cai followed closely behind, the two arrived at the room of the three Song Si and the man knocked on the door himself.
“Who is it?”
Song Si asked, pretending not to know.
“My lord, it’s me.”
Song Si “heard” his voice and came over to open the door.
The man bowed, “Sir, please sell us some pills for the sake that you and my son are candidates of the same class, and you are free to set the price, we will never ask for more.”
“This ……”
The man hastened to say, “You don’t know, my son has always been reluctant to drink medicine when he is sick, but if he were to enter the examination in a few days, his performance would be affected if he went in sick. I hope that you will sell us some pills for the sake of the hard work of studying.”
Sun Cai followed suit and said, “Don’t look at our young master, he doesn’t like to drink medicine, but he is very dedicated to his studies.
“Brother, sell them some.”
A crisp voice came from inside the house, then Song Wan Yue came out holding a paper bag with pills inside, “This pill is two pills at a time, twice a day, the kimono soup is the same, it will be good in about three to five days, there are twenty pills in here, you see if you want ……”
Not waiting for her to finish, the man couldn’t wait, “We’ll take them all.”
“One pill is one tael of silver, the total is twenty taels.”
The man took out a twenty tael silver note and handed it to her. Sun Cai took the medicine packet and turned and walked quickly back into the house over there, the man then thanked him and also walked quickly back.
“Big brother.”
Song Wan Yue raised the silver ticket towards Song Si, who pulled her into the house and banged the door shut, her body against it, trembling slightly with excitement.
Song Wangyue lost her smile, “Big brother, you’ll have to get used to the speed at which we earn money in the future.”
Song Si covered his thudding heart, “Yue’er, you say, they won’t return the pills later, right?”
Song Wan Yue, ……
……
The man entered the house and took three steps to the bedside, “Jin’er, let’s not drink the soup, let’s take the pills.”
Sun Jin gestured to his subordinates to help him up, took the pills, looked at them again and again, and curiously stuck out his tongue to add to them, he immediately wrinkled his face in bitterness, and almost threw them away in disgust, “This is too bitter.”
“It’s not bitter, it’s not bitter, you can put it in your mouth and wash it down with a sip of water, it’s much better than drinking soup and medicine.”
Sun Jin also knew that his appearance would affect his performance when he entered the examination hall, frowning, he put the pill in his mouth, took the water brought over by Sun Cai, took a large sip and washed the pill down, although there was some medicinal taste in his mouth, it was indeed much better than drinking soup pills, even the preserves Cai gave him didn’t take it, “Did they say how long it would take to work?”
Just now I was so focused on coming back that I forgot to ask, Sun Cai immediately put the preserves back into the plate on the table and went out to ask.
When he heard a knock on the door, Song Si’s heart, which had just calmed down, jerked up again, “Who, who is it?”
“My lord, we forgot to ask earlier, how long will it take for the pills to take effect?”
Song Si’s heart fell back heavily as he did not come to return the pills.
Song Wan Yue had already gone over and opened the door, “It will take half an hour to have an effect, and the reaction of the kimono soup pill is similar.”
Today is still a diligent day, begging for a wave of monthly votes, evaluation votes, recommendation votes.
