Chapter 85
Not long after, my mother went to see Aunt Xiu, and heard Aunt Xiu mention Sister Yingying.

"A few days ago, I went to West Street and heard some women talking about the shopkeeper Yan's family. It seems to be that Mr. Yan went to the Gu family to propose a marriage, but was rejected. They all felt unwilling for Mr. Yan, saying that he is full of economics. , and the family is rich. In Fucheng, what kind of famous lady do you want to find, but you can't find it?"

Mother was about to say that this matter also depends on fate.

But I heard Aunt Xiu's words again:

"Another woman heard this, and said, let alone looking for Mr. Yan in the Fucheng, even if you go to the Imperial City, you can find someone who is a hundred times better than Gu Xiaoyaer. People in Jinxia Prefecture, no one knows Well, that rascal, Gu Xiaoya, pestered Fu Xin begging for nothing, but she was so disgusted by others?..."

Aunt Xiu didn't like to hear those words.

The same goes for mothers.

What's more, it was sister Yingying's biological mother, so she hated hearing those words even more.That's why Miss Yan mentioned that her brother went to the Gu family to propose marriage, but was rejected by Gu Xiaoya, she thought it was because Gu Xiaoya didn't know how to flatter her, and so on.

Sister Yingying's mother was furious, and raised her hand to teach Miss Yan a lesson.

Fortunately, it was my mother who persuaded me in time.

Sister Yingying's mother didn't hit Miss Yan.

At that time, although Miss Yan was not beaten, she looked at Qin Shi arrogantly and asked:
"Sure enough, let me try it out. You are Gu Yao's relative. Not long ago, the little lady my brother went to mention should be your daughter, Gu Xiaoyaer?"

After my mother came back, she told her that Miss Yan, when she mentioned the word "Gu Xiaoyaer", there was only admiration in her eyes, but no disgust.

Perhaps it was because of this reason that when Qin saw it, he withdrew it and stabbed Miss Yan's angry gaze.

Miss Yan said apologetically:

"I was the one who was rude just now. I shouldn't have said those words and hurt you. I will apologize to you. Please forgive me."

Mother didn't hear Qin's answer, and knew that she would not forgive so easily.

I heard Miss Yan say, "Before I used the shampoo made by this lady's daughter, Gu Xiaoyaer, I only knew that she was restless. But after I used the shampoo for hair , Knowing that she has real talents and learning, I don't think so about her."

The mother was puzzled, could it be that Miss Yan knew her uncle?

Otherwise, how can I buy the shampoo made by Sister Yingying?
Although I know that sister Yingying is short of money.Based on her mother's understanding of her, she believed that no matter how helpless she was, she would not go to the Yan family and sell them shampoo.

What's more, Miss Yan was rejected by Sister Yingying, the younger sister of Mr. Yan.

The mother was puzzled and asked Miss Yan:

"Do you know Fan?"

Miss Yan looked in the direction of West Street, and said, "I've only heard of Fan's family, but I haven't met him before."

"Then you still use the Gu family's..." Qin looked at Miss Yan with astonished eyes and asked.

"I heard this from one of my neighbors." Miss Yan said with a smile.

It was Miss Yan who saw that neighbor. In recent days, her hair has become darker and brighter than before.Before, the man's hair was dull and a little yellow.

Now, seeing that neighbor's hair has improved, Miss Yan is also happy for her.Not only that, but I also want to ask this neighbor, where did I buy the oil?

Anyway, it's not like the sweet-scented osmanthus oil she often uses.

I asked, so I might as well go buy some and use it back.

"Your hair has a faint floral fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed immediately after smelling it." Miss Yan said sincerely.

When the neighbor heard this, he asked Miss Yan to wait, and soon brought a bottle of water for shampooing, saying it was from her friend Fan.Let Miss Yan try it at ease, and if she finds it useful, tell her later.

"These are all done by a relative of my good sister, Gu Xiaoyaer. She is good at medicine and has treated many villagers."

Yan Xiaoniang is only paying attention to this shampoo, and wants to try it quickly to see if it works.So the word "Gu Xiaoyaer" was intentionally ignored.

After she tried it, she felt quite satisfied.

Said to her neighbor, "You can help me buy a few more bottles, my mother and I both want to use it. Not to mention, the water she made for washing hair is just good. After washing hair, it becomes soft There are many, it is easy to sort out..."

That's how Miss Yan bought the shampoo, and since then, she has changed her bad opinion of Sister Yingying.

When Shen Ruyi came to borrow money, she kicked the door because she didn't borrow it from Qin's hands. The next day after the trouble, Xu Xinlan still came to Gu's house to accompany Gu Yingying.

Since Gu Yingying wanted to make money, she asked Zhu to fill a cup of soaked water after Zhu Shi soaked the saponins, so she could check it for herself.

Based on experience, I know that it needs to soak for another two hours.

Gu Yingying encouraged Zhu Shi with her eyes, "Second sister-in-law, if these saponins are soaked for another two hours, it will be even better. By then, smash them, and the boiled saponins liquid is also good for washing clothes."

Zhu Shi was a little nervous at first, because she was afraid that if she was clumsy, these medicinal materials would be wasted.But once he heard what my sister-in-law said, he quickly regained his confidence.

When the saponins are well soaked, take them out and mash them.

Xu Xinlan waited by the bed, accompanied by Gu Yingying, her mother, uncle, and Mrs. Qin all went to help Mrs. Zhu.So they made shampoo at night, no matter how tired they were, they persisted and boiled two pots of medicinal materials.

After packing the shampoo, Zhu Shi and the others put it in a basket and carried it into the bedroom, asking Gu Yingying to take a look.

This time, Gu Yingying just opened two bottles at random, and said: "This bottle is scented with grapefruit, and this bottle is scented with gardenia. Granny Xu, Aunt Xu, Mother, Second Sister-in-law, thanks to your help. Wait I’ll give you some of the flour I sent over from the imperial city.”

The shampoo that the second sister-in-law and the others helped to make may have added too much water, and I always felt that the concentration was not right.

But it is not easy to make it like this.

Gu Yingying is very content.

Before this, sister Xinlan told her that all the flour delivered from the imperial city had been delivered to the government a few days ago.It's just strange to say that those flours have not been distributed to anyone by the magistrate for a long time.

On the day when Niang and Aunt Xu went to the government office to testify, they vaguely heard people discussing in private, as if they said that someone went to the grain store recently and bought this year's new flour.

"It's expensive, isn't it?" Gu Yingying asked.

Xu Xinlan slanted her mouth, "Need to say? Originally, these flours were given by the emperor to the families of the soldiers who fought far away in Mobei. That is to say, as long as someone in the family is fighting outside, regardless of whether they made military achievements or not, They can all go to get five catties of flour. But the one who sucked human blood sold it all!"

When Xu Xinlan mentioned this, she gritted her teeth with hatred!
She also felt unwilling in her heart, this is what they deserve.Why not give it?So, taking advantage of Fan's still here, I intentionally told the other party to know.

Anyway, sister Xinlan told her that in the letter her uncle wrote to the uncle, she said that the folks should not be treated badly.The Xu family donated their property to resist powerful enemies, and later built water conservancy projects, etc., in order to make the villagers live better.

Instead of letting the folks have enough food and clothing.

Two days later.

Gu Yingying received two bags of flour, both of which were new this year, weighing more than 40 catties in total.

Sincere thanks to Fan Shidao:

"Thanks to Granny Xu's help, I was able to exchange for such good flour. I only need one bag, and the other bag is for you and Grandpa Xu to make dumplings."
