Duanmuqing drank the soup, and exhaled hot air from time to time. Vertex novel update is the fastest. Listening to Gu Nan's words, she usually seldom speaks and just sits aside and nods.
Her eyes are often squinted reassuringly. In the past, she was always alone. At that time, she could not speak a word a day, and seldom talked to anyone.
Maybe that's why she stuttered.
She doesn't talk often, but she likes to listen to Gu Nan.
Sometimes she talked about ordinary trifles, sometimes she talked about legends she had never heard of, and of course there were times when Gu Nan would also say some strange nonsense.
But when she speaks, she will listen carefully from the sidelines.
"Snake gallbladder should be able to exchange for some things"
Gu Nan was thinking about what to change.
Duanmu Qing on the side hastily stretched out her hand, shook her head and said.
"Snake gallbladder is, it's a prescription, it can't, it can't be changed."
Well, she's always been more insistent in some ways.
"Well, then I won't change it."
Just a few snake skins and dried snake meat should already be able to replace a bag of rice, and there may be leftovers.
It's time to decide what to change, because this place is in Senese's diplomatic circle, so there will be many traveling merchants, and there will always be something special.
Duanmuqing didn't go out to collect herbs today, and it was very dangerous to go out to collect herbs when the road was blocked by heavy snow. And most herbs are hard to find.
She was going to cook some medicine at home. There would always be more people getting sick in this weather, but if someone in the village got sick, there was no need to fry it again, just boil it and it would be fine.
After breakfast, Gu Nan went out with the bamboo hat. Looking at the sky, spring is about to begin, and it may rain frequently. She is considering whether to weave another coir raincoat.
The market in the village has not become deserted because of the snow, but it may be more lively. There is no way. Maybe the heavy snow a few days ago really made it impossible to go, but if there is only some snow these days, it will not stop the merchants. .
They are all out to make a living, and if they can be one step ahead of others, they can earn more.
The stalls on both sides are inviting people to come and have a look, and some of them are businessmen exchanging with each other. The people on both sides speak half Chinese and half nonsense, which makes it difficult for both sides to understand. However, the transaction can be carried out safely. This may be the tacit understanding between the businessmen.
In some cases, merchants exchange with villagers. After dealing with merchants for a long time, villagers are also very shrewd and will only exchange what they need. When bargaining, the saliva on both sides flew around for a long time, but nothing could be said.
The fixed population in the village is very small, but the mobile population is surprisingly large. There is only such a village nearby, where you can exchange for things that are not available inside the Great Wall, and you can also exchange for things that are not available outside the Great Wall. You can change them by running back and forth Can't get paid.
This also makes life easier for the people in this village.
A person was walking on the snow on the street, wearing a bamboo hat on his head, but he was only wearing a thin cloth in the cold weather. On his shoulders were several snake skins and a bag of jerky.
She looks like a nearby mountain man, the only special thing should be the black sword slung around her waist.
When the villagers see this person, they usually greet him with a smile. This person has lived here for some time. I live with that doctor, and I often see patients in the village without taking anything. I can say that I am a rare popular person in the village.
"Shop, change a bag of rice."
Gu Nan put the snake skin and jerky on the stall. She has been to this stall several times, and the shop owner is quite familiar, and he is a Han.
"Ouch, it's not just the price of a bag of rice."
The storekeeper looked at the things Gu Nan put on the stall and smiled. He looked up and saw that he was a regular customer. It is not easy to meet a Han Chinese who is not a businessman outside the customs, so he was quite impressed.
He came early and almost changed everything. Since they are all Han Chinese, the shopkeeper shrugged his shoulders and said, pointing to the snake skin and snake meat.
"These, I'll give you two bags of rice in exchange."
He exchanged the rest of the rice, so he could go back earlier.
"Okay, thank you very much." Gu Nan said with a smile, looking at the stall, but saw something else.
Some white rice noodles, some black sesame seeds, and even a few pieces of caramel which is rare.
"Hey, why did you bring so many things here this time?"
Gu Nan stood by the side of the stall and asked.
The shopkeeper smiled. He really didn't know anything about the customer in front of him except that he could speak fluent Chinese.
The other party's voice was a little low, and it sounded like a thin man.
"It's not been a year. After I finished this trip, I went home to be with the elderly at home. I won't run during this time, so I ran more this time."
"That's it." Gu Nan nodded, looked at the black sesame and suddenly remembered something and asked the shopkeeper.
"Speaking of which, what month is it now?"
"It's the thirteenth day of the first lunar month." The shopkeeper said with some emotion, probably thinking of his family members.
If it wasn't for the sake of living, he wouldn't be able to stay home for a year.
"It's the first month of the month." Gu Nan seemed to have an idea, pointed at the things on the stall, and said to the shopkeeper with a smile.
"Shopkeeper, you don't need two bags of rice. Give me one bag of rice, and give me some of the remaining three items. It's one bag of rice."
The price of white rice flour and black sesame is not much. Although the store is strange, they gave Gu Nan a small bag, but the price of caramel candy is much more expensive. He only gave a small piece, which is already given by regular customers.
Putting on these, Gu Nan left with her things on her back. She was going to have something to eat at night. Speaking of which, she hadn't eaten this kind of food for a long time.
Since the evening, Duanmuqing saw Gu Nan busy in and out of the kitchen, and did not tell her what she was doing.
When he came out, there was still some white flour on his nose and hands from time to time, which looked a little funny.
Until nightfall, the clouds that were still shrouded in the daytime were gradually blown away by the north wind from the north, revealing the stars and the moon under the clouds.
The moonlight was bright and white, falling on the snow, making the white ground even more serene, with a little glimmer of light.
Without the cover of the clouds, the stars and the moon can be seen clearly, and they are no longer half-covered.
The starry sky at night is full of stars, a looming river of stars is in the sky, and the moon is in the sky. The moon is already very round today, and it is hard to tell whether the bright moon like a disk is more beautiful, or the incomplete crescent moon is more beautiful. Jiao.
But the night is beautiful tonight.
The hut always smells of herbs, and the light smoke from the kitchen rises leisurely.
Medicine was burning in front of Duanmuqing, and the flame in the stove was dancing. She looked up at the full moon in the sky. I didn't think about anything, just stared at it in a daze.
"Miss Qing." A call came from the side.
Duanmuqing turned her head and saw Gu Nan coming out of the kitchen carrying two bowls.
"How about a taste?"
Looking at Gu Nan, Duanmuqing showed a slight smile, and the snow wasn't so cold anymore.
