Medical Concubine Allure

Chapter 11
Guangyuantang's business is also not good, and the way out it finally found was cut off.

Ruoya sighed heavily.

Chen Ma went to clean up the pots and pans after she finished her meal, while Ruoya was thinking about the way ahead quietly by herself.

Mother Lin's health is not good, and she has to be sick on the couch for more than half a year, and she can't do without medicine. If she didn't go up to the mountain to collect medicine every day, her body would have collapsed.

But the problem with this medicine is solved, but the body needs to be nourished by something.Now that the road is cut off in the city, I can only rely on myself.

What's the matter?She is self-reliant and has enough food and clothing. She doesn't believe that with her own skills, she can't afford to support a family in this ancient times!

Having figured it out, Ruo Ya suddenly felt refreshed. While it was still bright, she hurriedly washed Lin's changed clothes by the well in the yard, while carefully planning the future road.

If they could open a pharmacy in the city, the family would have a way out.It's just that it's not enough to open a pharmacy just relying on medical skills. I have to know people, deal with the government, make a name for myself, and have a backer...

More importantly, there must be silver!
Yinzi, Yinzi, just thinking of Ruoya gives me a headache.

It seems that the saying is right, "Money can make ghosts grind, but without money, it is impossible to move an inch!"

She is a mere little girl, the road ahead is still very difficult!
The mind is disturbed by these trifles, and it can't be pure after all. Ruoya thinks that these things can't be achieved in a day and a half, so she might as well face the current situation first.

In any case, in this village, those who gather medicine and see a doctor every day will not go hungry, but it is really difficult to make a lot of money.

Maybe, when she is older in two years, maybe she will have a chance. This ancient village is closed and underdeveloped. What can a little girl do if she wants to go out?

After a busy night, she personally helped her mother to lie down, and then she and Chen Ma rested in the main room.

After all, it is a very tired person. Once his head touches the pillow, he doesn't know where things are going.

Good night's sleep!
She was woken up by the chirping birdsong in the courtyard. She turned over and opened her eyes to see that Mama Chen had woken up early.

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she got up and tidied up the bedding.Pushing open the window, I saw that Chen Ma was busy making a charcoal fire in the yard.

A burst of fresh air blows in, with a bit of earthy fragrance.The soil in the courtyard is soft, and the moss marks are wet. It seems that there has been dew at night.

Ruoya dressed up and went to the back room to see Mrs. Lin.

Mrs. Lin was half lying on the pillow she embroidered in the early years. When she saw her come in, she forced out a smile and asked, "Are you awake? Why did you wake up so early? Haven't you finished the medicine at home? I don't need it today." Go up the mountain."

"I'm used to going to bed early and waking up early every day." Ruoya smiled at her, not letting go of any slight expression on Lin's face.Just now she saw it clearly, Lin was frowning in a daze, and only put on a smile when she saw her coming in, but this smile was uglier than crying.

It was because of this that Lin's illness was at the root of her illness. She couldn't sleep all night, and she couldn't stop crying every day when she thought of being abandoned by the Gu family.Seeing her getting older in the past two years, her energy became more and more weak. Although Ruoya didn't wake up at night, she knew from Lin's face that she didn't sleep for several hours a night.

But this heart disease needs to be healed by heart medicine.But she couldn't help with this, and no one would be happy when encountering such a thing.

Lin, not only worried about her unfair fate, but also worried about her!

Chen Ma came in with a medicine bowl from the outside, looked at Ruoya with a smile and said, "Our girl has really grown up, we knew to see Madam first when we got up early."

Lin couldn't help holding Ruoya's hand, let her sit on the edge of the bed, and looked her up and down, "Yeah, I didn't expect that Ya'er would be old enough in the blink of an eye. It's just this marriage, but there is no Falling..."

Having said this, his voice was a little choked up, and he lowered his head unconsciously.

Ruoya hurriedly pretended to be shy and turned away, "Mother, what are you talking about? I don't want to get married, isn't it good to just follow my mother for the rest of my life?" Lin Shi and Chen Ma laughed.

After cooking the porridge, Chen Ma made some pickled vegetables and cut them into thin strips. Ruoya beat the two eggs that Erni's mother had just sent into poached eggs, and brought them to Lin who had drunk the medicine .

Lin Shi refused to eat it anyway, Ruoya and Chen Ma talked about it, so they ate one with tears in their eyes, and Ruoya and Chen Ma insisted on sharing the other one.

Chen Ma is Ruoya's nurse, and she has been alone all her life, and Ruoya is her lifeblood, so she is not willing to eat it.

Letting go, there is no way, and it is hot, it would be a pity not to eat.Ruoya had no choice but to finish half of the meal with her.

Then eating mixed noodle pancakes with pickles, it's also delicious.Although these days were poor, fortunately there were no disputes, and the whole family was very affectionate.

Just after eating, I heard the door outside being clattered.

Chen Ma couldn't help muttering, "Whose cats, dogs, chickens, or ducks came to look for you again?" She was about to open the door with her inflexible waist.

Ruoya hurriedly hid in the back room, took out a piece of black plaster-like thing with long hairs from her sleeve, and stuck it on her face, and put on a blue cloth scarf.

"Why are you still wearing this at home? Isn't it hot?" Lin asked puzzled.

Earlier, Ruoya said that she was showing her face outside alone, and she still had to cover up her appearance, so Lin agreed, but she didn't expect to wear it for several years.Seeing that her daughter has grown up, but she has been given a bad name, she has no idea.

It's just that Ruoya is deeply aware of how shocking her appearance is!
Of course there is nothing in this remote village, but if one day the fame spreads far and wide, and there are only a few women and children in the family, it will be troublesome if disasters arise.

She used this reason to convince Lin and Chen's mother to keep the secret and not tell anyone about it. She only said that she left such a thing after she fell ill.Anyway, the villagers are honest and honest, no one will doubt it.

The door opened, and two people in rich clothes broke in, but they were a man and a woman.Chen Ma took a step back involuntarily, frightened by the menacing background.

Only then did I realize that the one who started it was Gu Fu, the third-class steward of the prime minister's mansion, who used to be in charge of sending money and food to them.

The woman in the back is about forty years old, wearing an ocher cocoon shirt, a navy blue horse-face skirt trimmed with a wide lanthanum border, holding a snow-white lake silk veil in her hand, with a round body. , shaking the handkerchief while walking.

Chen Ma looked at it for a long time before she recognized that she was the young lady from the rich family who married into the prime minister's mansion back then - now the prime minister's wife's companion Zhou's mother.
