The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 141 Meeting Siruo Again

She looked at the seeds in the small bag one by one, and the more she looked, the happier she became. She saw that the seeds in the small bag included Panax notoginseng, Morinda officinalis, Asparagus cochinchinensis, Gastrodia elata, Atractylodes macrocephala, Fritillaria thunbergii, etc.

Haha! God really helped me. It was effortless. Lin Xi was so happy!

Although she had collected and planted a lot of medicinal herbs in the boundary bead, they were all suitable for growing in cold places. She didn't have any medicinal herbs from warm areas. She didn't expect to get so many at once today!

The medicinal garden in her world bead has finally become much richer.

"Boss, if the price is right, I'll take all of these. How much?"

Lin Xi coughed, cleared his throat, looked at the shopkeeper with bright eyes and asked.

"You want all the girls?"

The shopkeeper and the waiter exclaimed in surprise at the same time!

Seeing their faces full of disbelief, Lin Xi smiled and said, "Why? Don't you want to sell it?"

"Sell, sell, of course, boss, tell me how much it is?"

The young man was the first to react. He bent his arm and stared at Lin Xi, the shopkeeper, with his mouth wide open, and said repeatedly.

"These plus the cotton seeds cost me a total of sixty taels of silver. Just give me sixty taels, young lady!"

The shopkeeper came back to his senses and said with a smile.

"Boss, how can you be so honest and sell it at the purchase price?"

The young man secretly tugged at the sleeve of the shopkeeper, and without moving his lips, he squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

As he spoke, he smiled at Lin Xi with the corner of his mouth raised, not knowing that his words had been heard by Lin Xi!

Lin Xi’s five senses are getting stronger and stronger, how could he not hear it!

She looked at this very interesting master and servant pair and coughed amusedly.

He smiled at the shopkeeper and said, "This shop and the labor are all costs. The shopkeeper is losing money by selling it this way!"

The young man nodded hurriedly.

"If the girl doesn't buy it, I don't know how long this stuff will be kept. If it can't be sold in the end, then I will really lose money!"

The shopkeeper smiled warmly, his eyes full of sincerity.

"How about this? I'll give the shopkeeper seventy taels, and he'll give me the cart."

Lin Xi pointed at the cart leaning against the side of the shop and said with a smile.

Before the shopkeeper could answer, the clerk happily pushed the cart towards Lin Xi and said enthusiastically, "Girl, just give our shopkeeper seventy taels of silver, and I'll help you pack the grain and seeds!"

After saying that, he swiftly helped Lin Xi move all the things onto the cart and tied them up tightly.

Lin Xi liked this clever young man very much. He smiled and nodded at him, then took out the silver and handed it to the shopkeeper.

Then he pushed the cart, nodded to the shopkeeper, and strode away.

Seeing Lin Xi walking away, the shopkeeper tapped the waiter on the head and said with a smile: "Qiao'er, you, we don't need this little money!"

"Master, this is not a question of whether you are short of money or not. We should behave like a professional and fully integrate ourselves into the work. Otherwise, it will be easy to be discovered that your identity is not right. Then you will be arrested and taken back. How can you live freely outside?"

The young man pouted and retorted in a low voice.

"Okay, Qiao'er is right. I'll ask Aunt Liu to give you a bowl of braised pork tonight!"

The shopkeeper smiled, patted the boy's head, and turned to go into the shop.

Upon hearing this, the waiter clenched his fist happily, then quickly added the food bought by Lin Xi and continued to greet the guests warmly.

Coming to an empty alley, Lin Xi had an idea and she and the cart disappeared.

"Xiaobai, please help me!"

Lin Xi said while looking at Xiaobai with a smile.

"Master, just tell me what you want me to do!"

Xiaobai is proud to be able to help his master.

Lin Xi happily told Xiaobai about his plan.

After Xiaobai planted the grains, vegetables, cotton and medicinal herbs according to Lin Xi's plan, Lin Xi inspected his fields, vegetable garden and medicinal garden with a smile, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Well, there is still one orchard missing, so I will collect more fruit trees later."

A thought flashed through her mind, and she appeared in the alley with Xiaobai in her arms, continuing to stroll leisurely.

"Wontons! Wontons with thin skin and lots of meat!"

Lin Xi touched his rumbling stomach, sat down on the stool next to the wonton stall, ordered two large bowls of wontons, and began to eat them in big mouthfuls.

Mm, these wontons taste good!

As they were enjoying their meal, a group of yamen runners escorted a rich young man past the wonton stand. The young man shouted, "What are you doing? Let me go! My Li family has a close relationship with your county magistrate. Be careful or I will tell the county magistrate about this. Then you will be in big trouble!"

"Hmph! Be quiet! The county magistrate sent us to arrest you. I've long disliked you for bullying men and women. If you dare to yell again, be careful or I'll beat you up!"

A leading yamen runner waved his fist and yelled at the man who was being pinned down by the runners.

"You, you wait!"

The man looked at his huge fist, uttered a few words weakly, and dared not be arrogant anymore.

After they walked away, a woman sitting next to the wonton stall asked the stall owner curiously, "Hey, Old Liu, what's going on? Isn't that the third young master of the Li family? Don't these wealthy businessmen have connections with the county magistrate? Why did they suddenly arrest the third young master of the Li family?"

"I don't know, but I heard that the county magistrate released all the wrongly accused people in prison, and announced that many cases would be retried. The third young master of the Li family might be involved in the case!"

The old man who was making wontons looked around and said in a low voice.

"Oh my! The sun really is rising from the west. Did our county magistrate take the wrong medicine?"

The woman said in surprise.

"For those who have been wronged, it's a good thing anyway. If this bastard official can really change his ways and be a good official, then we have hope!"

"Hey! I'm afraid that a dog will always eat shit, so let's open our eyes and watch carefully. I hope he is not just pretending!"

......

Lin Xi listened to the conversation between the two, grinned, and thought to himself: Humph, he dares to just pretend to try!

"Uncle, the money is placed here!"

After Lin Xi finished eating the wontons, he took out a handful of copper coins and put them on the table, then got up and left to continue shopping.

The old man's enthusiastic voice came from behind: "Girl, come again next time!"

Lin Xi waved and responded: "Okay, come again next time!"

A quarter of an hour later, she walked along the street not far from the city gate and suddenly heard an arrogant voice.

"Humph! Bitch, I finally meet you again. Come, arrest her for me!"

Lin Xi looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw the girl who had stolen her mother's hairpin last time running behind her with several maids and guards.

The girl was looking at her with a vicious face, and several maids were coming towards her after hearing their master's orders!

The guards stood still.
