Chapter 8: The Magical Fate: Needle on the Wasp's Tail
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.
On this day, when it was almost noon, Lin Xuankong practiced Cangsong Zhuang and Linghe Finger, drank the medicinal soup brought by Li Xiaolan, and sat by the bed silently working on his mental skills.
Over the past few days, his Cangsong Zhuan movements have become extremely standard, with a vague sense of vigor and grandeur. Although they are not as pleasing to the eye as the little lady's movements, they temper the muscles and skin. The effect is getting stronger and stronger!
As for Linghe Zhi, he is already quite familiar with his routines,
Compared with the little lady's crane finger movements, the difference is no longer raw pork with hair and braised lion's head, but roughly medium-rare pork and braised lion's head!
Half an hour later,
Lin Xuankong, who had finished practicing, opened his eyes and looked at the empty medicine bowl on the table,
the medicine boiled by his little lady. The soup is so magical. The effect of this medicinal soup on nourishing qi and blood is more than ten times stronger than the medicinal soup I drank before my transformation!
He looked at the qi and blood shown in the life chart: [Transformation of qi and blood: 210/100000]
Normally, if I practice the physical exercise that consumes Qi and blood every day, I should consume a lot of Qi and blood.
But after practicing for ten days, every time I take the medicinal soup, I can replenish a lot of Qi and blood. Not only does it consume a lot of Qi and blood, The energy and blood will be replenished quickly, and after practicing every day, there is still some left, so that now I have accumulated a full 210 points!
In addition,
Normally speaking, the flesh and blood of my body should only be able to hold thirty or forty points of Qi and blood. My destiny is "old and strong". It also has the ability to store excess energy and blood, which is really amazing!
Of course, being able to save so much energy and blood is all thanks to the young lady’s medicinal soup,
If not, let alone saving energy and blood, I might not even be able to practice one round of Pine Stake every day!
I just don’t know how to prepare this medicinal soup and what is the value of the medicinal materials?
As an old husband, I didn’t bring many good changes to the little lady’s life, but he took the little lady’s medicinal soup every day. However, as a family, there should be no need to speak the same language!
The thought of being a soft-boiled old man just came into my mind, when suddenly there was a knock on the door outside,
"Pa, Pa, Pa, Pa"
"Is Xiaolan at home?" A gentle and kind woman's voice sounded.
Lin Xuankong was a little surprised. Since she got married, except for going out to get medicine and buy handkerchiefs and silk threads, she has hardly interacted with the little wives and sisters-in-law in the street. How could anyone come to her specifically? ?
Footsteps sounded from the stairs, and soon they arrived at the door, and Li Xiaolan's clear voice came, "Aunt Wang, why are you free to come to my house today?"
Aunt Wang, Grandma Wang?
Lin Xuankong's eyes moved slightly. The young lady would embroider some flower handkerchiefs every day and send them to Mrs. Wang in the clothing store for sale.
This Wang Po's martial arts cultivation is not particularly high, and she is said to be at the first level of metamorphosis, but she is a well-rounded person and has some business skills. She has opened eight ready-made clothing shops, one of which is in the inner city.
All in all, this Wang Po can be regarded as a famous figure. I am afraid that more than half of the people in Dazefu City know about her Wang Ji Clothing Shop!
"Of course there is a good thing! Here, these are the candied dates from Guhefang. I bought a few kilograms when I passed by Guhefang. I will give you two kilograms to satisfy your craving!" Mrs. Wang said with a smile in her voice.
Li Xiaolan welcomed Po Wang into the outside room, "Why are you so polite, Mrs. Wang? Please sit down first and I will pour you a glass of water."
Po Wang looked around and said, "Brother Lin Not at home? ”
Li Xiaolan replied: "He was a little tired and went to sleep in the house!"
Wang Po nodded, "My dear lady, I came here this time to ask you something! In the past few days, there have been Several customers came to the shop to inquire about embroidered handkerchiefs, but you haven’t sent any more handkerchiefs in the past few days!
Those customers are all wealthy merchants. I have spotted the flower handkerchiefs embroidered, and I want to order some, just one tael a piece! It’s my fault for being greedy, so I agreed!”
Li Xiaolan already knew how to make money! Other plans,
Hearing what Wang Po said, I felt a little hesitant. One tael of silver and one handkerchief. I can embroider several pieces in a day!
Wang Po continued: "Those are rare wealthy patrons. If the young lady embroiders fifty strips, it will be fifty taels!"
She sighed, "It's a pity that my eyesight is dazzled now." , when I was young, I embroidered flowers on my hands Silk, that's what Daze Mansion is famous for! Of course, it's definitely not as good as the young lady's embroidery skills that can attract butterflies and embroider grass with dew!"
Inside, Lin Xuankong was listening to the two people talking! A little surprised, a handkerchief costs nearly one tael? Is my little lady’s craftsmanship so good? I'm afraid it would take ordinary people a month to earn one tael of silver. Those rich and powerful women in Daze Mansion really don't treat money as money!
He touched his waist and pulled out a handkerchief that the young lady gave him a few days ago. This handkerchief was used by him to blow his nose and so on. He had been using it for many days,
because I clean it every day and the color has faded a bit, but I can still see the peonies embroidered on it clearly. The peony stitching is beautiful and expressive.
At this moment, Li Xiaolan outside had agreed to help Wang Po embroider handkerchiefs, and the two started chatting.
“Oh, my lady is such a hard-working person. Although this room is a bit old, it is very neat and tidy! The table is also polished so brightly that even if a fly falls, it will be planted. An old man got under the covers!" Wang Po said with a smile.
Li Xiaolan felt a little embarrassed when she praised her so much.
Wang Po continued: "It's a pity that those people in the Huang family are so ignorant that they kicked the young lady out and forced her to marry a poor old man who was half dead. Such a poor old man, Even a sixty-year-old widow, I’m afraid she won’t be able to look down on her. Oh, look at my mouth!”
Li Xiaolan was about to pour her a glass of water, but when she heard what she said, she frowned. The kettle was set aside.
Wang Po lightly slapped herself in the mouth and whispered: "It's all my fault. I won't open any pot! Don't worry, little lady, I know how to read faces. My face is very human, and things will definitely turn out well in the future. , I met my beloved!"
After saying that, she glanced at Li Xiaolan secretly, stood up and said, "Okay, I should go back too. Let’s go! Remember to help me embroider those handkerchiefs as soon as possible. It’s best to send a few over every day!” After Mrs. Wang left, Li Xiaolan frowned and went upstairs. Lin Xuankong in the room also frowned. ,
It's okay for this old woman to come over to do business, but this old guy's mouth is too poisonous. This is like a wasp's tail!
What does it mean to be half-buried, even a sixty-year-old widow would look down upon it?
What does it mean to have good fortune and meet your beloved?
Why don’t you pull the strings in front of me?
If the old lady hadn’t walked so fast, I would have given her a few slaps!
Walking outside, Lin Xuankong frowned and looked at the second floor. He didn't know what his little lady was thinking in her mind at the moment.
"Papa" a knock on the door sounded.
Lin Xuankong's face darkened, and he walked quickly towards the wooden door,
The old guy is back? Just teach her a lesson!
Opening the door, it was Xiaohu, the son of neighbor Li Dahu's family.
Lin Xuankong's expression softened slightly and let Xiaohu in, "Little Greedy Cat came early, I haven't had time to do it today. Where’s the food?”
Xiaohu chuckled and scratched his head. He closed the wooden door and sat down at the table. "Uncle Lin, you underestimate me, Xiaohu. Am I the one who eats the food? What's my name?" Happy sharing! ”
He looked upstairs and whispered: "Uncle Lin, why did that old woman come here just now? What did she do?" , come here and let your aunt embroider some handkerchiefs!”
Xiaohu was stunned and whispered: "Uncle Lin, it's better not to let little aunts go to Wangji's clothing store in the future. That Wang'an is not a good person! On the surface, she runs a clothing store and occasionally does charity. In fact, she There are so many evil things done in secret!”
< br>Lin Xuankong was a little surprised, "I don't think she is a good person, but you said she has done a lot of bad things."
Xiaohu said: "They are a few beggars I know. He told me a few days ago that he was the one who often worked for Wangji Clothing Store. These young ladies have either disappeared, been taken to a brothel, or their families have been destroyed! Although they didn’t see Mrs. Wang doing it with their own eyes, it’s not such a coincidence that something happened to the young ladies who worked for her family!”
Lin Xuankong thought to himself that his little lady's strength was unfathomable, and he was not afraid of Mrs. Wang's attack on her, but it was easy to hide from the hidden arrows. Moreover, if the Mrs. Wang kept talking bad things about himself in the ears of the little lady all day long, he would also be afraid of her. So disgusting.
I just don’t know what my little lady is thinking?
Rubbing Xiaohu's messy hair, Lin Xuankong said: "Okay, I understand!"
After Xiaohu left, Lin Xuankong sat at the table, thinking in his mind What should I tell my wife? Suddenly, Li Xiaolan's crisp voice sounded next to me. The voice said, "What are you thinking about? I'm a little hungry!"
Lin Xuankong turned to look at Li Xiaolan, "You should have heard what Xiaohu said about Granny Wang, Xiaohu and I We have known each other for more than ten years, and you will definitely not trick me!”
Li Xiaolan frowned, "Even if it hadn't been for what Xiaohu said, I wouldn't have planned to embroider handkerchiefs for her! Humph, I, Li Xiaolan's husband-in-law, how can I allow others to slander me!"
Lin Xuankong Hearing what she said, he felt a little sweet in his heart.
When he looked at Li Xiaolan again, he felt that the more he looked at her, the more he liked her. Such a lovely lady must be fat and white!
He smiled and said: "Okay, it's settled! I'll cook for the lady right away!"
Hearing the sweet voice of the lady, Li Xiaolan's cheeks turned slightly red, and she He lowered his head and remained silent, then snorted again after a moment, "Don't hit the snake and follow the stick! I can call you husband, but when no outsiders are present, you can't just call me wife!"
Lin Xuankong:
Young lady is still so thin-skinned! I will definitely be a person in bed from now on, why should I be so outspoken?
He was about to turn around and go to the kitchen,
Li Xiaolan stopped him again, "Come and sit down first, I have something important to tell you!"
Lin Xuankong frowned and said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Nothing in this world is more important than my little lady eating!"
Seeing his serious nonsense, Li Xiaolan couldn't help but laugh, "It's really important."
After saying that, she took out a flashing, walnut-sized walnut-sized device from the pouch on her waist. beads, "Have you seen this kind of beads?"
Lin Xuankong was a little surprised, so he looked at the bead attentively,
but suddenly he felt an inexplicable chill in his heart, and the hairs all over his body stood up spontaneously, as if he had been struck by some powerful evil. The monster is staring at the same thing!
How could this little bead make me feel this way?
