Chapter 47 Catching Medicine

Xu Xinger followed Xu Laosan into the city and drove the ox cart. I don't know how many roads she had walked. From the beginning of the sun to the rise of the sun, the ox cart finally became official.

The so-called official road is just wider than the dirt road in the countryside, which can make two ox carts walk opposite each other. There is no need to stop to avoid it. The dirt on the road is solid, and the car will not run as dusty as the dirt road in the countryside.

After walking along the official road for more than half an hour, I saw the high wall of Dongling County from afar and walked to the gate for a while. Although it was just an ordinary county in the north, the wall was tall, and there were soldiers walking back and forth between the pheasant wall and the stack wall, looking serious and towering, like a northern man. Thick and reliable.

Xu Xinger saw the ancient city for the first time and looked at the five or six-story-high wall. She was really shocked. She sat on the ox cart and looked up and said that if tens of thousands of arrows were fired, the people below would be shot into a sieve. She swallowed her saliva firmly and grunted.

"Sneer!" Someone next to him laughed.

Xu Xinger turned her head and looked at it. I don't know whose young master it was. At the age of thirteen or 14 years old, the precious blue robe set off his lips and white teeth. People * were immediately, revealing floral trousers and thick boots with green satin... Unfortunately, the arrogant and contemptuous look on his face made the beautiful little Zhengtai blanks crooked. He looks like a snobbish eunuch.

"Puff!" Xu Xinger thought of this and couldn't help laughing first.

The young master glanced at her disdainfully, shook his sleeves and gently raised the reins, and let the horse slowly trot towards the gate.

"What are you dragging? If you go to modern times now and see cars all over the street, it won't scare you to death." Xu Xinger muttered and jumped out of the car, watching Xu Lao* deposit the carriage, and the two waited in line to enter the city.

As soon as she entered the city gate, Xu Xinger suddenly felt that her eyes were not enough. Although she knew that the county was definitely not comparable to the village in Shashan, it was too unexpected.

They walked through the side gate, and when they entered, they were directly to the cities in the east of the city. There were two or three-story-high houses on both sides of the road. There were various cloths hanging at the door and windows. At a glance, they were colorfully in the wind.

Hefenglou, Xichunlou, Tianming Pavilion, An Yuxiang, Xiangrongtang, Wan Xiangji, Shangjinfang, Debaozhai... Xu Xinger was overwhelmed. Some of them could see that it was business at a glance, but some could not see the clues, which made her itchy. She wanted to go in and see what was going on one by one.

However, looking at the smiling guys at the door of the store, there are rich people in satin. Looking at the patched clothes on her body and the shoes that almost stick out their toes, Xu Xinger stuck out her tongue and felt that it was better not to ask for trouble.

Xu Laosan led straight to Xiang Rongtang and handed the prescription to the clerk at the door and said, "Brother, please follow this prescription to grab three pairs of medicine."

The man looked at Xu Laosan and Xu Xinger's clothes, took the prescription carelessly, went straight to the counter, and handed it to an apprentice, "Ge Xiang, grab the medicine!"

Xu Laosan stood in front of the counter and waited. Xu Xinger looked around curiously and saw a small counter on the left side of the door. There was an elderly man sitting behind him, but almost no one came forward.

After waiting for a long time, someone took a cloth bag, carefully opened it, and gave the old man a look. The two talked a few words, and the old man took out some scattered silver to him. It turned out to be a place selling medicinal materials.

Xu Xinger wanted to come up to see what was going on, but suddenly he heard Ge Xiang grabbing the medicine behind him and asked the person next to him in a low voice, "Which drawer is Guizhi?"

She suddenly became alert. Compared with him, traditional Chinese medicine did not grab one or two drugs wrongly or the wrong amount, and the whole efficacy and properties of the medicine were completely different. Ye Shi is now weak and can't stand such a toss.

When Ge Xiang weighed out all kinds of medicine and was about to divide it into three packs, Xu Xinger interrupted and said, "Wait a minute!"

Ge Xiang turned his head and saw that she was a yellow-haired girl and said impatiently, "What's the matter?"

"This little brother looks at his face, but the new apprentice?" Xu Xinger saw that he was young and cheated casually.

"I've been here for more than half a year." Ge Xiang responded.

"So that's it. Maybe I haven't seen you before." Xu Xinger looked up and said, "Since you have only been here for more than half a year, you must not have an apprentice yet. Should you find a master to check it?"

Ge Xiang's face turned red when he heard the words, threw the medicine in his hand on the counter and said harshly, "What do you mean? I have no experience and can't scratch the medicine?"

Xu Laosan quarreled here for a while and came over and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Don't worry, this guy, I didn't mean that." Xu Xinger said slowly, "However, you Xiang Rongtang is a time-honored brand in the city, and we have also come from far away. I say this, one is for our own peace of mind, the other is also for your reputation, and the third is also for the future of your little brother."

"The little brother can stand behind the counter to grab medicine after learning for half a year. I think he must be very valued by the old gentleman. The little brother must also be a talented and diligent person." Xu Xinger slapped a few words of flattery and said, "But everyone started as an apprentice. There is no harm in being cautious at the beginning. Brother, do you think so?"

Xu Xinger's words attracted many guests to watch. Ge Xiang's face was already red, and now he became more and more red and purple, but he was also a little guilty. He really couldn't say what he promised, but it was really shameful to find someone to help him check it.

The two people were deadlocked here, and suddenly a familiar voice came from behind them, still with slow disdain.

"The teeth are sharp and the mouth is sharp!"

Xu Xinger looked back and saw that it was the young master she met at the gate. In such a while, she had changed into a peacock green robe, jujube red trousers, and high-top boots with black embroidered edges.

What a coquettish man! Xu Xinger complained in her heart, glanced at him casually, then turned her head and stared at Ge Xiang, insisting that he find someone to check the medicinal materials.

The coquettish man came forward, came to the counter, frowned and asked, "Do you have to find someone to check the medicinal materials?"

"That's natural. This is to catch medicine, not to buy rice and noodles. If you catch it wrong, something will happen." Xu Xinger refused to give in at all and looked at the coquettish man strangely, wondering what this had to do with him.

The coquettish bag man seemed to see Xu Xinger's doubts. He showed the fan in his hand and said with his elegant demeanor, "I'm the young master of Xiang Rongtang. Do you think it has anything to do with me?"

"Since the young owner is here, it will be easier to do." Xu Xinger said with a smile, "Please ask the young owner to find someone to test the medicine for us!"

"There is no problem to find someone to test the medicine, but if there is no problem, what do you think you should do?" The coquettish man looked at Xu Xinger and asked.

"It's my job to catch the medicine in the pharmacy. Is it possible that my family will engrave a plaque for you? It says "Good medicine?" Xu Xinger was so angry that she was delayed. Looking at the contemptuous eyes of the coquettish man, she couldn't help sneering at him.

"That's right, this little girl is right. Isn't it right to catch the medicine correctly!"

"A pharmacy as big as Xiang Rongtang actually uses an apprentice who has only been here for half a year to grab medicine at the counter. Who dares to come in the future?"

Gradually, there began to echo Xu Xinger's voice in the crowd. People passing by outside saw the bustle, and some good people came in to watch. For a moment, they squeezed the door of Xiang Rongtang.

The coquettish man's face was also a little hung up. He stared at Ge Xiang fiercely and scolded, "Why don't you ask your master to come out!"

Ge Xiang quickly ran to the back, invited the old gentleman out for re-examination, and stood aside nervously watching.

The old gentleman wiped his hands, picked up the prescription, looked close to his eyes, and then looked at the herbs on the table. The first few were very smooth. When he saw the middle, his eyes suddenly opened wide and his beard raised his beard and said, "Who caught this?"

The peacock man's eyes suddenly narrowed, and Xu Xinger's face looked so good. Ge Xiang's whole body trembled, and the meat on his cheeks was trembling. He said tremblingly, "Master, master, yes, I caught it..."

The old gentleman threw the prescription in his hand on Ge Xiang's face and scolded, "You will catch the wrong ground yellow. With your ability, you still came to stand at the counter to grab the medicine with a shy face. One is cold blood and stop bleeding, and the other is warm and tonifying the kidney. Fortunately, I will check it, otherwise it will not damage our time-honored name of Xiang Rongtang!"

When the onlookers saw this, they whispered and whispered.

The coquettish man had a black face and didn't fan the fan in his hand. He stared at Ge Xiang fiercely, and his eyes almost spewed fire.

Xu Xinger said at this moment, "Since the matter has been clarified, let's break up. Don't affect other people's business. No one knows that they are born to know medicinal materials. Where can apprentices not make mistakes? With such strict teaching as the old gentleman, I don't think this little brother will make such a mistake again in the future. "

"You are kind now." The coquettish man said in a sarcastic tone.

"You don't have to lose your temper with me. I didn't come here to make trouble for your family. Everyone's relatives will come to your house to grab medicine. Maybe other people's lives will be in your hands. Shouldn't you be careful?" Xu Xinger said with a serious look.

The coquettish man was shocked by her for a moment, was silent for a moment, and frowned, "No matter what you are for, we did make a mistake to Rongtang today." After saying that, he turned his head to the old gentleman at the counter and said, "Mr. Guo, please grab three pairs of medicine according to the prescription. Today's medicine will not be charged, which is our compensation."

Xu Xinger was not polite and directly nodded and accepted it. This kind of thing is very common in modern times. Unexpectedly, an ancient coquettish young master also had such a mind.
