Chapter 47 The third child who wants to show off
  Just as he was about to say something, Lao Ma saw a half-grown man appear carrying a sack. He hurriedly ran over to help and asked, "What are you talking about?"

He touched a handful and found that it was full of grass. It squeaked when he touched it. It had obviously been dried in the sun.

The third child chuckled: "Thank you, Master Ma, this is my secret."

"Okay, I won't ask, where to put it?" The old horse had already carried it to the middle of the courtyard door and the carriage, and saw the third child jumping on the carriage and reaching over.

"what are you doing?"

Lin Ling asked, her eyes darkened, full of the intimidation of a strict mother: "You haven't come back all night, what are you doing?"

It was like cannibalism, but the third child was not afraid at all. He sat on the board, hugged the sack tightly, and said mysteriously: "You will know the secret when you get to town."

There was no time, so Lin Ling called Lao Ma: "Then let's go."

"okay."

It was quiet all the way.

Lao Ma felt that the atmosphere was depressing and took the initiative to mention the boss: "When Pan Rui first came into contact with horses, he went to feed the horses from behind and almost got kicked away."

Li Wuniang clenched her hands tightly when she heard this: "What then?"

"He escaped and now knows a lot of tricks. Last time, the horse went crazy and ran around. He grabbed the reins at the critical moment. Now, the horse has been trained by him to be more obedient than a dog."

"As long as he can tame half of the horses in the stable, then he will definitely be in charge of the stable."

This is the truth, as long as the old horse is doing some things, it is not a problem.

"It's been a few days here. Master Ma, please take a look if you can, so that they can talk to each other."

Lin Ling could see Li Wuniang's worry. If time goes by, the relationship will become weaker.

Li Wuniang's face slowly turned crimson.

"no problem."

The old horse agreed, stopped the carriage, and had already arrived at the entrance of the town.

The family got off the bus and entered the town.

"Mom, do you want to come with me first?" The third child stood at the fork in the road carrying a sack.

Lin Ling wanted to take Li Wuniang to take another route to Xiufang. She could stay for a while while it was still early, so she refused: "I'll go to Xiufang first. Let's go."

"Mother?" If mother is not here, who will he show to? The third child watched them leave, stamped his feet angrily, gritted his teeth, and continued to follow with a drooping bitter face.

When they reached the entrance of Xiufang, Lin Ling led them in and was taken to the backyard by Xiu Niang.

It was normal, but because the third child was there, the women in Xiufang let out a lot of exclamations.

"Is that Dr. Lin's son?"

"You're only fifteen or sixteen, right? He's so handsome."

"I wonder if my little girl can get married to him."

Lin Ling kept talking to each other even if she didn't want to hear it, so she had to call out to the third child: "Stay outside and wait."

The third child didn't like the old woman in this house and didn't want to get married. He went to sit on the steps of Xiufang with a sullen face. Then he sat down and attracted a lot of people's attention.

As if looking at a stone lion, he felt uncomfortable all over and exuded a violent aura.

Inside the house at this time.

Liu Zhaodi could already sit up. When she saw Li Wuniang, she took the initiative to introduce her to Mrs. Yu: "This is Li Wuniang, Wuniang, this is Mrs. Yu."

"Hello, madam." Li Wuniang greeted obediently.

She looked like a gentle rabbit, but Mrs. Yu would not give in just because of this. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Ling handed over a purse.

Li Wuniang explained: "I embroidered it a year ago." With just a glance, Mrs. Yu knew her skills: "It's not bad, but after a year, my skills will inevitably become sloppy. You can find a piece of cloth to practice. This time we are doing embroidery."

Li Wuniang glanced at Lin Ling first, and then went to the front yard after receiving a nod of permission.

There was a special place for them to practice. Li Wuniang felt a little unsure when she saw there were seven of them.

After she sat down in her seat, a bamboo basket was handed to her, containing handkerchiefs, embroidery needles, and threads of various colors.

She held the needle and threaded it in one go. Then she saw that others had already embroidered the outline. She took a deep breath and embroidered carefully in order not to be betrayed.

Madam Yu took Liu Zhaodi and Lin Ling to the corridor outside. She happened to see Li Wuniang's position. She chuckled: "It should be fine, go and get busy."

These words were undoubtedly a guarantee. Lin Ling nodded: "Thank you, Mrs. Yu. If you need anything in the future, just ask."

"Don't wait until later." Madam Yu smiled lightly, with a bit of embarrassment flashing in her eyes: "Embroiderers use needles all the time, and the calluses on their hands are not only thick, but also affect the appearance. The hand ointment we bought did not work well, I don't know. Can Dr. Lin help me? Don’t worry, the medicine you should pay will not be less.”

"Okay, no problem." Lin Ling agreed readily: "Then we'll leave."

"it is good."

Lin Ling took Xiaosi out of the door, and saw the third child standing up with a red face, and asked quickly: "Mom, can you come with me?"

"I'm going to the medicine hall."

Lin Ling pointed to the sun, it was almost one o'clock.

The third child's face instantly turned pale, his hands lost strength, and the sack rolled out a meter away: "Mom, are you disappointed in me? Hu Ao and I... I know I was wrong."

"Xiaosi, you go to the medicine hall first and tell me that I'm sorry for causing trouble to your senior brother."

Even though her son was talking about this, Lin Ling still couldn't bear to see him being so excited and disappointed.

Xiaosi said oh and left on his own.

Lin Ling urged: "Let's go."

The third child chuckled, picked up the sack, and took another branch of the road, which was only about a hundred meters away. He stopped in an alley, with four or five people walking around behind him, but no shops.

There were so few people there, Lin Ling couldn't help but think of the alley where Gu Dashu died.

She hadn't been lost in thought for a minute when the third child had already knocked on a wooden door.

Soon a man opened the door and looked directly at the mother and son, finally landing on the sack.

"Let me see."

He went straight to the sack and opened it, revealing the herbs inside.

The third child was expecting his mother to show a look of surprise. After all, he collected the herbs overnight last night, and he just wanted his mother to see that he could make money.

Should I say it or not? Lin Ling is a medical student. How can he not smell the smell of medicine? She can't pretend to be surprised!
  The third child is still waiting.

The young man who was looking after the medicine had already finished digging through the herbs, and said coldly: "These are not worth twenty coins. If you sell them, I will go in and get the money for you."

"Twenty?" The third child thought he heard wrongly and laughed out loud: "How can these be worth only twenty cents? I received them forty cents!"

Um? Do middlemen make the difference?

Lin Ling became interested and squatted down to check the herbs in the bag. They were all dried.

There were worthless woodworts, prunella vulgaris, large and small thistles, but at the bottom of the bag, there were five pine shells.

The two were still quarreling fiercely, and the third child, who didn't understand much, gradually fell behind.

"These five plants are worth thirty cents." Lin Ling stood up with the pine shells.

The boy's eyes flashed and he deliberately looked surprised: "I didn't see it."
