Shennong Pharmaceutical Field

Chapter 158

The Niu family is the richest man in Ning County, and they are local gentry who have been rich for several generations. Every time the county magistrate takes office, they will give the Niu family some face.And Mr. Niu is also a smart man, he knows that the people do not fight the officials for reason, and he never relies on his local reputation to make a big deal, and he is very respectful to every county master.

Buy two good and buy one good, the Niu family gets along well with all the county lords, and their status as the richest man is becoming more and more stable, making the Zhao family, the second richest in Ning County, fall further and further away.

Mr. Niu had a son in his old age, and he had just experienced a false alarm that his mother had no milk. Now the mother and child are finally safe. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the twelfth day of the boy and the full moon, the Niu family celebrated wildly, held a big feast, and invited all the people in Ning County People with heads and faces are ready to have a good time.

No, although the banquet was scheduled to officially start at noon, but early in the morning, there was an endless stream of people in front of the grand gate of the Niu family.

Yao Tiantian woke up early on purpose, leaving Hu Niu to look after Jiuhong, who was weak, and let Da Zhuang look at Xiao Shunzi, who was emotionally unstable. Watching Zaohua and Xiaofumei leave the door of Kelai Rujia early in the morning, Xiangzi and Fusheng drove the carriage and went straight to the richest man Niu's house.

Seeing the gate of Niu's house from a distance, and seeing the guests entering the house with various gifts, Yao Tiantian knocked on the carriage and ordered softly, "Bypass the main entrance, let's go to the back door of Niu's house."

"Back, the back door?" Xiangzi was taken aback, he really wanted to ask people to go in through the front door openly, why did we go to the back door?
However, before Xiangzi could ask his question, Fusheng shook his hand holding the rein, the carriage creaked softly, turned around, and walked towards the back door of Niu Mansion.

"This, this..." Xiangzi looked puzzled, but he still didn't yell loudly like Da Zhuang. He lowered his voice and asked, "Shopkeeper Yang, what is the purpose of our boss's order?"

"My boss has his reasons for doing this, so let's just do it." Fu Sheng said leisurely, not sure if he already understood Yao Tiantian's intentions, or he had absolute trust in her plan.

Looking at Fu Sheng who was so calm, Xiangzi was thoughtful, and finally swallowed back the questions in his belly.

Turning to the back door of the Niu Mansion, it was indeed much more deserted than the front, only two servants guarded the door, occasionally one or two passers-by hurried past the door.

Fusheng took a picture of a secluded place and parked the carriage. He could see the back door of Niu’s house, but he was not parked at the door. Came over to ask.

"Just wait, the person we are looking for hasn't arrived yet." Yao Tiantian said directly to the outside of the car curtain without waiting for Fusheng and Xiangzi to ask.

This wait lasted for an hour, and when Fusheng and Xiangzi had lost their patience, a carriage finally hurriedly came around the corner, with a dark blue curtain, it was inconspicuous, but it stopped directly behind Niu's mansion the door.

As soon as the carriage stopped, an old man in his fifties got out of the carriage. He was wearing a crumpled white-gray tunic robe, and his face was anxious.He got out of the carriage and whispered something to the gatekeeper Niu's servants, one of the servants immediately turned and went into the mansion.

After a while, I saw your master in a maroon red robe coming out in person. The old man who got off the carriage greeted him familiarly, handed a gift box to Master Niu, and said anxiously: wearing something.

This is the time!Yao Tiantian lifted the curtain of the carriage, supported Xiaofumei's hand and got out of the carriage together, and Zaohua followed with the gift box in her hand.

With a steady smile on her face, Yao Tiantian quickly walked over to Master Niu and the gray-robed old man who were talking, before they arrived, the voice passed over first, "Yao Tiantian congratulates Master Niu on the birth of a precious son! "

Hearing someone say hello to Master Niu, the old man in gray robe cupped his hands and said goodbye, "Brother Niu has a visitor, so I won't bother you any more. When the family matters are settled, I'll come to the door to congratulate and make amends."

"This is Li Dong's family, right? Nice to meet you, nice to meet you." Yao Tiantian looked at the gray-robed old man who was in a hurry to leave, and immediately said loudly.

Only then did the gray robed old man raise his head, and looked up and down the girl in a royal blue dress not far away. He searched in his mind for a long time, but he never remembered that he had known such a person.But right now, he doesn't have the time to find out why the other party can call him by his name as soon as they meet.

Perfunctorily cupping his hands, the gray-robed old man, that is, Dong Li's family, dealt with it casually, "It's a pleasure to meet, a pleasure to meet. Li still has some mundane matters, let's talk about it another day."

When Master Niu first heard Yao Tiantian's greeting, his eyes jumped, and he really had a good momentum.

That day, the old doctor Qi quietly sent four-leaf ginseng, cut a section and gave it to the seventh aunt, she really had a little milk, and the dying young master finally had something to eat. Master Niu was overjoyed, thank you very much Old Doctor Qi, only then did he ask carefully where this life-saving baby came from.

The old doctor Qi did not hide anything, he explained the things in his pharmacy in detail, and finally sighed, "Master Niu's good deeds and good deeds, and the young master's fortune and fate, met such a good person as Yao Dong's family."

Master Niu nodded. If this happened before County Magistrate Sun's order for dangerous medicines, their Niu family needed rare medicinal materials, and herbal pickers came to deliver them one after another. This is the most normal thing.However, now that the county magistrate Sun's drug restriction order is in place, it would be a big risk for anyone to go directly to Qi's pharmacy to identify medicinal materials.

Even so, during the period when the Niu family was in a hurry to find medicine, herb pickers ventured in front of the Qi family medicine shop from time to time, all they wanted was a high bounty from his Niu family.

However, the members of Yao Dong's family are different. According to Old Doctor Qi's account, she does not collect herbs for a living, but lives in an inn with a large group of maids, servants, and shopkeepers. Then she came to Ning County from other places. Are you in business?She wants to use this matter to get her own way?
Master Niu thought clearly, but since the things brought out by Yao Dong's family were of great help, his Niu family should just support her a bit.Therefore, Mr. Niu sent his most powerful butler to personally run a guest to Rujia Inn, and sent a wedding invitation for Niu's wedding banquet. Firstly, it was for the other four-leaf ginseng in her hand, and secondly, he wanted the butler to touch it. The details of the other party.

To Master Niu's surprise, the housekeeper, who has always been very accurate at knowing people, came back and praised the young Yao Dong's family at that age, saying that although she is a girl under 20 years old, she is full of people. With an extraordinary bearing, he couldn't see the details of this Yao Dong's family at all, and on the contrary, he almost screwed up his errand.

The big butler's sharp eyes for distinguishing people are what Master Niu relies on first and second, but he couldn't see through a little girl, so Master Niu became really curious.

As a result, yesterday, when his eldest lady in charge went to Jinxiufang and came back, she even mentioned that Yao Dong's family again, praising her not only for her beauty, but also for her understanding of the general situation, knowing how to judge the situation, and attracting many talented people around her. , is a very miraculous figure.

After listening to the two right-hand men around him praise this Yao Dong's family so much, Master Niu became more and more curious about the young Yao Dong's family, looking forward to meeting her.

However, on the day of the young master's wedding banquet on the full moon, the guests were almost here one after another, but the Yao Dong family, who should have taken the opportunity to get to know the respectable gentry and hosts in Ning County, did not show up for a long time.This made Mr. Niu couldn't help doubting his own judgment. Isn't she what he imagined?She sent four-leaf ginseng purely for the purpose of curing diseases and saving talents?But why did she imply that Old Doctor Qi would come to Niu Mansion to attend the wedding banquet?

Just when Mr. Niu couldn't figure it out, the boy guarding the back door came to report that it was Li Dong's family from Fei Cui Xuan who was begging to see him at the back door.

"What is this old brother Li doing? Niu and Li have such a good relationship, and the post has already been sent to him. He just came in through the front door openly, why did he go to the back door in a sneaky way? " Master Niu murmured in his heart, but he still followed the boy to the back door of Niu's mansion.

After arriving at the back door, Mr. Niu was shocked by the embarrassment and haggardness of Li Dong's family. Before he could ask, Li Dong's family briefly talked about the bad things that happened in his family, and he handed over the prepared congratulatory gifts. , I have to go back in a hurry, go back to find that little Shunzi who suffered a thousand knives, and ask him to hand over his daughter.

Just when Li Dong's family was in a hurry to leave, the Yao Dong's family that Master Niu had been looking forward to all this time unexpectedly appeared in front of him in this way.Taking a look, Master Niu sighed in his heart, he really is a character, Madam and the housekeeper are sincere!
Master Niu was stunned, and when he was admiring secretly, Yao Tiantian had already walked up to them, and said to Li Dong's family who had turned around and was about to get on the carriage, "Li Dong's family, please stay, you are in such a hurry to go back, but To make the daughter disappear?"

"You, who are you? How do you know about my family?" Li Dong's family suddenly turned around, walked quickly to Yao Tiantian, and asked eagerly.

Seeing that Dong Li's family looked desperately looking for someone, Master Niu hurriedly smoothed things over, "This is Dong Yao's family whom I invited to the banquet. Brother Li, don't worry, let's talk slowly if you have something to say."

After appeasing the eager Dongjia, Master Niu turned to Yao Tiantian and said, "Dongjia Li lost her daughter, so it is inevitable that they are impatient. Please don't be offended by Dongjia."

Yao Tiantian smiled magnanimously, "What did Master Niu say? I have been waiting here for a full hour, and I came here just for the disappearance of Dong Li's daughter."

"Ah? This?" Li Dong's family heard so much about Yao Tiantian, and a trace of joy flashed across his eager face, "So Yao Dong's family knows the whereabouts of the little girl? Please, Yao Dong's family, take pity on me for the sake of my age. Let's meet again, father and daughter."
