Chapter 168 The Real Po Chai Pill
Chapter 168 The Real Po Chai Pill
He has seen this man before.
At the pharmacy that day, he took out some kind of Baoji Pill.
Chen Minghui initially thought he was just bluffing.
It wasn't until the manager of Qianjintang led several famous doctors from the capital to examine the goods that he realized they were genuine.
Although they are both called Baoji Ginseng Pills.
However, this product is indeed much more effective than the Baoji Pills that cost ten taels of silver each on the market.
Unfortunately.
Many people approached him to offer to buy it, but he stubbornly refused to sell.
They also said that this medicine is extremely rare and cannot be found on the market now.
Now he has brought it here.
This?
Could it be that they're short of money and want to auction it off?
"How much are your Po Chai Ginseng Pills? I'll take them!"
Chen Minghui spoke to him.
Seeing the fish take the bait, Ma Hongmao narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I'm not selling these pills."
"What? If you're not going to sell, why are you here?"
Seeing this, the shopkeeper was about to go over and smooth things over.
But then he saw Ma Hongmao walk towards him.
"Are you Master Chen of the Chen State Duke's Mansion?"
"That's right, and who are you?"
Chen Minghui frowned.
"I heard that you, Master Chen, have been seeking medical treatment for Lady Rongguo everywhere, which shows your great filial piety."
Because Ma had lost his mother, he knew the pain of losing a mother.
"I won't sell these pills; I'll give them to you as a gift!"
"Huh? You're giving it to me?"
Chen Minghui looked surprised.
I thought he was trying to take advantage of the situation to get a better price, but I never expected that he would be moved by his own filial piety.
To give him such a rare door.
Has his reputation for filial piety already spread far and wide?
After thinking for a while, Chen Minghui realized that he, a grown man, didn't have much that anyone could covet.
He then laughed loudly:
"Very well, my esteemed brother, may I ask your name?"
"My surname is Ma, and my given name is Hongmao."
"So it's Brother Ma. You're so thoughtful."
Come on, let's go for a drink at Hongfu Restaurant...
Ma Hongmao, whose shoulder was hooked, was still a little dazed.
Just as outsiders say, Chen Minghui really does like to make friends everywhere.
A villa outside the city.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the villa.
"Master, we have arrived at our residence in the capital."
The curtain was lifted from the inside, and a middle-aged man stepped down from the carriage.
After two days and one night of travel, Rong Sheng finally arrived in the capital.
Wu Weiwei got up very early today.
"Auntie, today is your birthday. How would you like to celebrate?"
Seeing this, Wu Weiwei smiled.
This must be her first birthday celebration in ancient times, right?
Think about how you want to get through this?
Seeing the expectant smiles on the two maids' faces, Wu Weiwei couldn't help but smile as well.
“Take out one hundred taels of silver from my private treasury.”
Wanqiu, go back and call Granny Mei, Sister Chen, and Su Xing, and ask the kitchen to prepare a delicious meal!
"Yay! We're lucky enough to get to eat a big meal again thanks to Auntie."
Lingfu said happily.
Later that evening, the doorman, Songzi, brought in a rather large package.
"Aunt Wu, this was sent from the post station."
"What is it?"
Lingfu looked at the packaged box and asked curiously.
"I don't know either, I only know that it was sent from Jiangnan."
"Jiangnan?"
Wanqiu exclaimed in surprise.
She looked at Wu Weiwei. Wasn't the young master currently in Jiangnan?
Could it be that the Crown Prince sent it from Jiangnan?
Wu Weiwei was also curious.
Jiangnan and the capital are thousands of miles apart, so why would the prince think of sending her something?
Thinking of this, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
She seemed to remember telling him that she liked it when her beloved man surprised her.
Could it be?
Did Lu Hanting remember what he said?
Wu Weiwei smiled, surprised that he still had some humanity.
Seeing the expectant looks on the two maids' faces, Wu Weiwei smiled and said, "Lingfu, go and open it!"
Lingfu found a sharp tool and opened the outer packaging.
Until a small, exquisite rosewood box was revealed to them.
Wanqiu urged, "Auntie, please open it and take a look."
She was also curious about what the prince would give to their concubine.
As Wu Weiwei watched, a sense of anticipation arose in her heart.
She pressed the switch on the wooden box.
After a soft sound, the contents of the box were revealed to them.
"This……"
The three of them were dumbfounded when they saw the shiny black pills lying quietly in the box.
"Aunt, the young master..."
"What is this!
Why would the Crown Prince send something like this to our concubine?
Lingfu had originally thought that the prince would give her a bracelet or a precious hairpin or something similar.
result……
Wanqiu also looked disappointed.
How could the young master not understand his aunt's heart? No one would send medicine on someone else's birthday!
Is the young master so afraid that his concubine won't get sick that he's cursing her to be sick?
Really.
To be honest, Wu Weiwei was indeed disappointed.
She had assumed the prince would hide something valuable in the box, at the very least a few rolls of silver notes.
Who knew it would be this thing?
But this thing smells so familiar.
Wu Weiwei picked up the pills.
Her eyes suddenly lit up as she smelled the medicine.
"Wanqiu, quickly go and invite Granny Mei and the others over."
Seeing Wu Weiwei's astonished expression, Lingfu didn't ask any questions and ran straight out.
After a while.
Then, Granny Mei, Sister Chen, and Su Xing arrived.
The three were about to greet Aunt Wu when she interrupted them.
"Granny Mei, come and take a look."
Is this the pill from the secret recipe we lost before?
Granny Mei took the pills.
He only gave it a light sniff before handing it to Chen Caiyun.
Thus, the pills ended up in Su Xing's hands.
Su Xing brought it to her nose and sniffed it.
A moment later, she nodded to everyone.
“Auntie, this pill is indeed the Po Chai Ginseng Pill produced from the stolen prescription.”
"really?"
Sister Chen nodded.
"Yes, we're sure it is."
"Auntie, where did you get this pill?"
"Granny Mei asked curiously."
When the prescription was stolen, they thought the pills would be mass-produced and sold.
I never expected to wait so long to finally see this one.
Wu Weiwei's lips curved into a beautiful smile.
"This is a birthday gift that the Crown Prince sent to me from Jiangnan."
Upon hearing that it was a gift from the young master, Granny Mei gave a bitter smile.
Su Xing, on the other hand, looked strange.
I've never heard of giving medicine as a birthday gift.
This young master is really strange; he actually sent medicine to the woman he loves.
Anyone who didn't know better would think he wanted people to die sooner.
Looking at Su Xing's expression, Granny Mei knew what was going on in her head.
She tapped her.
"What are you thinking about, little girl? Go back and study hard."
Upon hearing the recitation, Su Xing's face scrunched up in a frown.
Granny Mei is abusing her, she is abusing a young girl.
After the person left, Granny Mei carefully put the pill into a box.
Then three pills of the same size were poured out from another bottle.
Aside from the different color, these three pills are exactly the same shape as the black pill from before.
Even the taste is somewhat similar.
Wu Weiwei looked at the three round and plump little cuties.
"Granny Mei, what's going on?" she asked in surprise.
Granny Mei just smiled.
Sister Chen stepped forward and said happily to Wu Weiwei, "Auntie, the real life-saving pill has been developed!"
