Escape after crossing

Chapter 129 Morning Market

Jiang Ziluo entered the space and added the herbs he had prepared before to those he found today. Jiang Ziluo first prepared the Water Cloud Flower and Water Spirit Lotus, and waited to return to Jiangdu City to boil them together with the previous ones.

Seeing that it was still early, Jiang Ziluo searched for several seafood recipes on his computer. In modern times, when Jiang Ziluo was resting at home, he would occasionally cook some seafood, but they were all simple.

The seafood was just squid tentacles, clams, prawns, etc. He had only eaten crayfish outside, not because he didn't know how to cook it, but because Jiang Ziluo was afraid of getting his hands caught and afraid of washing it.

It's easier to eat out, but of course I only eat out a few times a year. But after I sorted out the menu, I still have to wait for tomorrow's morning market to see what seafood is available.

After finishing the work, when going downstairs, Jiang Ziluo found that some small instruments beside the operating table had lights on. She thought she had seen it wrong, so she walked over and touched them.

This time he could really touch it, Jiang Ziluo was really happy, he ran out and said to Yuanyuan, "Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, I unlocked something new again."

Yuanyuan lazily opened one eye, looked at Jiang Ziluo and said, "Well, you should think about why it takes so long to unlock the computer."

"Um... not enough people need treatment?" Jiang Ziluo asked carefully.

"Well, that's just one of the reasons. Another reason is that you don't heal others often enough. You should check on the things you can't use yet. Try your best!"

After Yuanyuan finished speaking, she closed her eyes and looked like she was asking him to stop bothering her. Jiang Ziluo was originally in a very happy mood, but suddenly she became unhappy. It seemed that she had treated patients too little and always had concerns about something.

Jiang Ziluo did not leave the space that night. She took a shower and then reflected on her condition carefully. It was indeed as Yuanyuan said.

Before, she had to learn Chinese medicine first, so she won’t talk about it. But in the past year, Baicaotang has been opened, and she doesn’t treat people very often. Although Baicaotang has medicines from the space, there are not many of them, and they are expensive.

Ordinary people can't afford it, so they still have to use Chinese medicine. Jiang Ziluo fell asleep while thinking, and Mingyue came to call Jiang Ziluo very early the next day.

Jiang Ziluo had woken up long before Mingyue came over. He came out of the space and rolled around a few times on the bed in the room to make it look like the bed had been slept in.

Hearing the knock on the door, Jiang Ziluo lazily answered, then got up, put on his clothes, and went to open the door. Mingyue and Mingxi were already waiting outside, and saw Jiang Ziluo come out.

Both of them couldn't help but wonder, "Girl, you..."

"Call me Master, what's wrong?"

"Sir, why has your face become darker? It wasn't like this yesterday!" Mingyue immediately changed her words.

Jiang Ziluo looked at the two people. Although they were wearing men's clothes and combed their hair like men, their faces were still pale. Jiang Ziluo even reached out and wiped their faces.

Then he pulled the two into the room, asked them to wash their faces again, and then put on men's makeup for them. After the makeup was completed, the two were not interested in the changes after the makeup was completed, but were interested in the makeup items that Jiang Ziluo took out.

Jiang Ziluo said that he would give them a set later and let them use it. The three of them then left the house. It was around four in the morning when they got up, and it was already past five when they left the house.

By this time the sky had begun to brighten and people were already walking on the streets. Jiang Ziluo saw some people who looked like servants from wealthy families, holding groceries in their hands.

While shopping, Jiang Ziluo suddenly raised his hand and patted his forehead, then took out a few banknotes and a purse.

"Mingyue, Mingxi, take these and keep them separate so that you don't run out of money when you want to buy something."

"Aunt, sir, this is too much." Mingyue took it, looked at it and said.

"Not much. I think we will be out and about in the future, so we will need it eventually. And I may forget to give it to you sometimes, so I'll put more on you. When you run out, I'll give you more."

The two of them didn't dwell on the matter anymore. They were older than Jiang Ziluo and always wanted to take care of Jiang Ziluo. They divided the money quickly and were almost at the morning market.

Jiang Ziluo could already vaguely hear the noisy voices and conversations ahead. Jiang Ziluo looked around and saw that it was not far from the pier.

As they approached the morning market, the smell of seafood became stronger as they walked closer to the vegetable and fruit vendors. Jiang Ziluo looked at the people coming and going, some were from wealthy families, some were from restaurants, and some were just ordinary people looking around, trying to buy more of whatever was cheap.

Although those wealthy families and restaurants basically have a fixed supply, now is the time when there is plenty of seafood, so they will come to see if there is anything unusual.

Jiang Ziluo looked around and found that the so-called seafood consisted of mostly fish varieties and some shellfish, but these shellfish were all small ones. The vendor said that only wealthy families thought the shells of shellfish looked good.

The ladies in the family took them to admire, and some took out the meat inside. They washed the shells, dried them, and asked the servants to make small holes in the shells and strung them into bracelets to wear on their hands.

Jiang Ziluo picked up some shells and looked at them. Some of them were indeed glowing with color. Jiang Ziluo didn't see the seafood he was looking for, so he decided to give up and go back to the restaurant.

While walking back, Jiang Ziluo was observing the vendors on both sides intentionally or unintentionally. Suddenly, Jiang Ziluo saw a little girl of eight or nine years old who was in an empty space, smashing things with a stone in her hand.

Jiang Ziluo walked closer to take a look and saw that they were smashing crayfish. Jiang Ziluo also noticed that the little girl would raise her head from time to time, look at the people around her, and then lower her head to continue smashing.

"Little girl, why are you smashing so many red shell beetles?"

The little girl raised her head and looked at the three people in front of her, then said timidly, "Sir, you can buy these red shell worms and feed them to chickens and ducks. The chickens and ducks will grow well and lay a lot of eggs."

"Are you alone?" Mingyue looked around but didn't see any adults. The vendors on both sides shook their heads.

The little girl nodded and continued her movements. Jiang Ziluo continued to ask, "Little girl, did you catch all these?"

"Yes, I caught them all yesterday, and I carried them back this morning. Sir, do you want them?" He said the latter sentence in a very low voice.

Jiang Ziluo softened her heart. She was obviously very timid, but she still mustered up the courage to reply, "How much do you plan to sell it for?"

The vendor next to the girl was a young man. When he saw Jiang Ziluo and the others coming, he looked over here intentionally or unintentionally. Only when he heard Jiang Ziluo ask how much it was did he walk up and say.

"Sir, are you serious? Do you really want these things?"

Jiang Ziluo frowned when she saw him asking the question suddenly. She thought that the vendor wanted to steal the little girl's business, so she replied in a somewhat awkward tone.

"I only want this little girl's, not yours."

The young man waved his hands hurriedly and said, "No, no, no, I don't have this thing. Don't get me wrong, sir. I know her and she came with me."
