Chapter 227 The Mortal in the Immortal’s Tribulation (33)
The Luo family split into two groups, and Luo Qi took Xie Chao to stay overnight at the village chief's house.
Luo Ming returned to the Luo family with his sister Luo Qing.
"Sister, can you please stop having unrealistic ideas?" The moment he entered the house, Luo Ming finally couldn't help but said, "I know Mr. Xie has an extraordinary background, but what does this have to do with us?"
Luo Qing glanced at his brother, his face revealing grievance: "Isn't this all for you? As long as we can leave here with Master Xie, we can live a different life."
"What kind of life?" Luo Ming was helpless. He really didn't know how to wake up this sister. "People here don't even have the qualifications to become slaves in aristocratic families. Don't dream about it.
You saved him, but he wouldn't even look you in the eye."
"Stop talking." Luo Qing didn't let him continue. "Whatever you say, I'm not wrong anyway."
After saying this, Luo Qing went into his room without looking back.
Luo Qi sent Xie Chao to the village chief's house and came back not long after.
"Brother, I'm back." Luo Qi said as he came in.
"Yeah!" Luo Ming glanced at his younger sister and continued to organize things at home. There was no gate here last night and some wild beasts came in, so the nest was a mess.
Fortunately, the Luo brothers installed the door in the afternoon, otherwise, if it were a few days later, who knows what would have happened to the house!
"Brother, here you go." Luo Qi took out the reward money given by Xie Chao, "Take this money, our family still owes money to the Luo family!"
Luo Ming was really surprised. His younger sister had always been closer to her older sister Luo Qing, so why would she give the silver to him for safekeeping this time?
"I'm afraid that if I give it to my sister, she will give it back to that Mr. Xie." Luo Qi frowned and briefly told her brother about how her sister had snatched her food today.
Finally, Luo Qi concluded: "I don't know what kind of tricks this Mr. Xie has fed to my sister. We can't even afford to eat, but she always gives away things to others."
Luo Ming did not respond to his sister's question, but asked about Xie Chao's stay at the village chief's house. It was not that he cared about this person, but he was mainly afraid that this big Buddha would come back again.
"Oh, he said he would only stay for one night, and asked the village chief to send him back to the city at dawn." Luo Qi remembered what Xie Chao and the village chief said, "I think he gave ten taels of silver!"
Luo Ming nodded and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: It’s good that he’s gone, it’s good that he’s gone.
What he didn't know was that his conversation with his sister was also heard by Luo Qing in the room, and she made a bold decision.
The next day, when Luo Ming got up, it was still early. Thinking that this was his first day as a medicine boy, he got up early and went out.
Luo Qing heard her brother go out of her room. She tiptoed around her younger sister who slept in the same bed with her and entered Luo Ming's room.
She rummaged through the boxes and cabinets and finally found some loose silver in a small cloth bag. Luo Qing hardened her heart, put the small cloth bag in her arms, and went out.
My younger sister Luo Qi was still sleeping and had no idea what was happening at home.
After Luo Ming arrived at the Su family, he did not knock on the door directly, but waited quietly outside the door.
Half an hour later, Su Xiangran opened the door of Xin'an Pharmacy.
"You're here quite early!" As soon as the door opened, she saw Luo Ming squatting beside her. "You don't have to come so early next time. Just come at this time."
Luo Ming quickly responded: "Yes."
Su Xiangran then told him what he had to do for the day and explained his study schedule in detail.
Because Luo Ming couldn't read, he needed to spend time learning to read every day. Of course, after learning the words, he also had to learn about medicinal herbs.
Su Xiangran would also teach him some preparation methods of commonly used medicinal materials.
Luo Ming was very excited to hear her arrangement for him. After all, this would be his livelihood in the future. The key point was that Doctor Su was willing to teach him to read. No matter what, this was a great favor!
Therefore, during this half day, Luo Ming studied the matter of recognizing words very seriously.
At noon, the Luo brothers arrived. This time their attitude was much better, and they looked at Luo Ming with relatively kinder eyes.
After all, the previous incident was not caused by Luo Ming, and he was willing to take responsibility and pay compensation. This time it was more than ten taels of silver!
"Here, this is the five taels we agreed on earlier." After seeing the two people come in, Luo Ming took out his purse and handed it over.
Luo took the silver with a big laugh and said, "Brother Luo, you are indeed a capable person. Over the years, many people in the village wanted to be Doctor Su's apprentice but didn't have the chance!"
Luo Er poked his eldest brother and told him to shut up: "I don't know, how much does Luo earn a month? Look at the remaining money?"
Su Xiangran listened to their words in the kitchen and thought that the two of them might be up to something again, so she walked out: "He borrowed all this money, and he will pay back the rest every month. Wasn't that what we agreed on before?"
"Doctor Su, you are at home now!" Luo Da said awkwardly when he saw Su Xiangran, "We thought you went up the mountain to collect herbs!"
