A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Seeing that they were talking happily, Third Grandpa also joined in the fun: "Since you can't bear the money, then if you lose, the old man will give you the money."

Gu Jinli said: "Third Grandpa, if you give me money, our bet will be increased to two taels of silver."

The third grandpa smiled and shook his head: "Your third grandma is right, you just care about money, and you don't even let us two old guys spare the money. Well, isn't it just two taels of silver, we can afford it, Bet on it.”

Needless to say, the result was that Gu Jinli won.

After two days of drying the mosquito-repellent incense, the family lit up the mosquito-repellent incense on the second night. Light smoke drifted out from the lit mosquito-repellent incense, carrying a faint scent of flowers and plants. In just one cup of tea, the house was filled with mosquitoes. .

The third grandmother held an oil lamp and looked at the dead mosquitoes on the ground. She was startled: "Xiaoyu, this mosquito coil of yours is too powerful. The mosquitoes are all killed. Isn't the mosquito coil you made poisonous? Then Will we be poisoned?"

The third grandmother looked back at Gu Jinli, her face full of worry.

Gu Jinli shook his head firmly: "No, mosquito coils are made of herbs. The three kinds of herbs can only kill mosquitoes and eliminate insects. They will not harm humans and animals."

It seems that it is a bit difficult for her to sell her mosquito coils. She needs help from Dr. Wu and the Jiang family, otherwise others will not dare to buy her mosquito coils.

Fortunately, the Qiao Qiao Festival will be in two days. Mrs. Jiang sent a message to her family as early as the end of June, inviting the sisters to go to Jiang Mansion to beg for clever things.

She happened to be going to Jiang Mansion for a banquet, so she brought the mosquito coils with her.

However, before going to Jiang Mansion, she first went to Xuanhufang and showed the mosquito coils she made to Dr. Wu.

Gu Jinli bought her medicinal materials at Xuanhufang. Doctor Wu knew what kind of mosquito repellent incense she was making. When he saw her bringing two bundles of incense, he was not surprised and asked, "Is this the mosquito repellent incense you made?"

Gu Jinli nodded: "Exactly, it's made of white stem chrysanthemum, white aphid grass, and red back thorn. These three medicinal materials are harmless to the human body, and they won't produce any toxins when mixed together."

"White stem chrysanthemum, this thing can actually smoke mosquitoes." Old doctor Wu was very surprised. White stem chrysanthemum is mostly used to remove heat toxins and treat boils, but no one has ever used it to kill mosquitoes.

"Your method of making mosquito-repellent incense is interesting, and the medicinal materials used are also fresh. I'll try it first." Dr. Wu took the mosquito-repellent incense to a drainage ditch in the backyard and started to light it.

Drainage ditches attract mosquitoes the most. After burning mosquito coils for a while, the mosquitoes around them keep falling down.

Doctor Wu's eyes showed surprise: "Your mosquito coils are powerful enough. They killed so many mosquitoes in just a moment."

Gu Jinli took the opportunity to ask: "Well, do you think this mosquito-repellent incense can be sold on consignment at your Xuanhufang?"

Old Doctor Wu did not agree immediately, but lit two more mosquito coils, went to the wing in the backyard, and closed the door.

After a while, old doctor Wu came out and said: "Okay, Xuanhufang will help you consign the goods for a while. However, if the sales are good, will you do it yourself in the future, or will you have to find a medicine shop to do it?"

Old Doctor Wu did not hide his secrets and said to Gu Jinli clearly: "The most valuable thing about your mosquito coil is not that it can smoke mosquitoes, but the method of making it. In the past, this medicine was prepared into a soup and then taken. The gold wound medicine for external application is just ground into powder, and no medicine is ever made into incense."

"Although making incense is not difficult, Taoist temples are full of incense offerings, but no one has ever made incense from medicine. This method is very special. Do you understand what I mean?"

Gu Jinli nodded: "I understand. To be honest with Grandpa Wu, in the future I want to make some medicine that is easy to carry and does not need to be boiled. If you get sick, you can just take the medicine and eat it. And medicine like mosquito coils can be ignited." , it’s just one of the convenient medicines I want to make.”

Dr. Wu's eyes widened when he heard this: "Girl, you mean, do you know other ways to make medicine?"

Gu Jinli didn't hide it from old doctor Wu, and nodded directly: "Well, I know a few methods, but I don't dare to confirm whether it can be done."

Old Doctor Wu was extremely happy: "No matter whether it can be made or not, you have to try. If you are afraid of spending money, I can give you some medicinal materials as a gift, as long as you can make the convenient medicine you mentioned."

When Dr. Wu was young, he traveled all over the country and saw many people who fell ill on the road. It was just a case of Fenghan who lost his life because he couldn't find a pharmacy to buy medicine for a while.

Even for him, it is difficult to save people when there is no medicine.

Gu Jinli got what he wanted: "Sure, I promise you, I will make a convenient medicine. When the time comes, you will help me read the prescription. You are better at treating patients, so I will just make it a favor."

When Old Doctor Wu heard this, he smiled and touched his beard on his chin, and said, "If you say this, I will feel more at ease."

Although Xiaoyu girl made mosquito coils, he did not dare to compliment her on her medical skills.

"How do you plan to sell this mosquito coil?"

Gu Jinli said: "Five pennies a piece, I will take four pennies and Xuanhufang will take one pennie. What do you think?"

"I'm naturally happy to have made a penny for nothing." Old Doctor Wu sent Gu Jinli out of the backyard and said to her, "I will send someone to notify you after it is sold or if there are any problems."

"Okay, you've been taking so much trouble." After Gu Jinli left Xuanhufang, he went to Gu's Restaurant to help.

After helping sell out all the food in the shop, I followed Luo Huiniang and the others home in the late afternoon and started preparing gifts for the Jiang family during the Qiqiao Festival.

On the day of the Qiao Qiao Festival, the third mistress called the sisters up before dawn and asked them to freshen up.

After two and a quarter of hours of fussing, the third grandma looked at Gu Jinli and Gu Jinxiu who had changed into new clothes and were standing together. She couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes. She said to Cui behind her: "Look, our sister Xiu and Xiao How good-looking is the fish?”

Ms. Cui also took the first step to dress up her two daughters. Looking at her two daughters, who were wearing long, well-fitting dresses and looking beautiful, she couldn't help wiping away her tears: "They look good."

When she was in her hometown, how could she dare to believe that her daughter could wear such a beautiful dress? The good clothes at home are all from the second, third, and fourth family. It would be nice if her children could have patched linen clothes to wear.

Gu Jinli said: "Third grandma, mother, why are you still crying? Wipe your tears quickly, we have to leave."

"Okay, don't cry anymore." The third grandma wiped away her tears and urged them: "Hurry up and have breakfast, or Shang Xiucai's family will come to pick you up."

Sister Gu Jinli hurried to have breakfast.

Not long after eating, the mule cart from Shang Xiucai's family arrived.

Gu Jinli, Gu Jinxiu, Gu Jinan, and Luo Huiniang took a mule cart to the county seat.

Luo Huiniang was sitting in the mule cart, very excited: "Last year, we went to the county government office to apply for a new household registration. We were in a hurry. I was still hungry and so dizzy that I didn't even see what the county seat looked like. This time I finally You can go take a good look."

Then he asked: "Xiaoyu, let's go play by ourselves. Wouldn't it be bad if we don't call Gu Yumei?"
