Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons
Chapter 66 Personally Verify the Effect
The Zhang family listened to Hu Bin's narration with solemn expressions, and were shocked and indignant at the Cheng family's ruthless tactics.
Zhang Laoer was secretly glad in his heart, grateful for his initial vigilance and decisiveness. He saw through Mrs. Cheng's conspiracy in time and offered his help. Otherwise, Hu Bin and Xu Liyun would most likely have fallen into the Cheng family's trap, with disastrous consequences.
Zhang Sanwa clenched his fists, and deep in his heart he had a deeper understanding of the insurmountable gap between the powerful and the common people.
At the side, the innocent little girl noticed Hu Bin's slightly red eyes and the tears that were about to overflow. She took the pastry specially made for her by her brother without hesitation, broke off a small piece, and handed it to Hu Bin with her tender little hands.
"Uncle Hu, don't be sad. Eat this cake. It's sweet and you won't feel sad anymore."
"Thank you, young lady. Uncle is much better now."
Hu Bin gently wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, took the cake, and a relieved smile bloomed on his lips.
The cake was a chestnut cake made by Zhang Siwa from wild chestnuts in the mountains. It was golden in color, delicate in texture, melted in the mouth, and was sweet but not greasy. Xiao Youniang was particularly fond of it, but for the sake of her health, she could only enjoy five pieces a day to avoid overeating and harming her body.
If she hadn't seen Hu Bin's extremely miserable appearance, how could she be willing to give up this delicious pastry that even she would find too luxurious to taste, and generously give it to someone else?
Hu Bin would not easily let down the kindness that Xiao Youniang showed unintentionally.
When the piece of fragrant chestnut cake slowly slid into his throat, even though he had never been sensitive to sweets, he seemed to feel a warm current warming his heart, and the gloom of the past few days seemed to be swept away.
Seeing this, Zhang Laoer's eyes flashed with deep meaning, and he said slowly: "The Cheng family is backed by high-ranking officials. Although their methods are tricky, they are not against the law. Even if we are extremely indignant, it is difficult for us to do anything about it."
Hu Bin's mind was as clear as a mirror; he understood these principles very well. However, the resentment and grievance in his heart made him feel like he had innocently fallen into the muddy Yellow River. Not only was it difficult for him to clear his name, but his family members were also innocently implicated.
In recent days, he didn't even dare to step into his sister's house, for fear that his mess would make his brother-in-law and his family bear a grudge against his sister.
"Having said that, regarding your brother-in-law's business difficulties, I have figured out a plan that may be of some inspiration." Zhang Laoer spoke slowly.
After saying this, he added another meaningful sentence, which aroused people's imagination.
When Hu Bin heard this, a light flashed in his eyes. The fire of hope in his heart was instantly ignited, and he couldn't wait to urge Zhang Laoer to continue.
Zhang Laoer calmly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, which contained the result of their intensive research during this period - the Tianxian Pill.
He took out a pill at random and gently threw it to Hu Bin for appreciation: "This pill can nourish the body and mind, and calm the mind and spirit. It will have miraculous effects on men, women, young and old, healthy or weak. Especially for those with weak constitutions, just take one pill and sleep for a night, and you will see obvious changes the next day."
Hu Bin didn't need Zhang Laoer to explain much. He could estimate the huge value behind this small pill based on his intuition alone.
He quickly took a pill, examined it carefully, and then put it close to his nose to sniff it carefully. The complex and subtle medicinal fragrance was intoxicating, but it was difficult to tell at the moment how many kinds of precious medicinal essences were blended into it.
If what Zhang Laoer said is true, and the effect of this Heavenly Immortal Pill is as magical as the myth, then it is undoubtedly a life-saving straw for the already precarious Baicaotang, and the hope of turning things around seems to be right before their eyes!
"Brother Zhang, is this elixir really that magical?"
Although Hu Bin was not familiar with the medical field, he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
After all, Zhang Laoer's family seemed to be from a simple farming family, and their education level was probably limited. How did they come up with such a panacea?
Zhang Laoer was confident and responded, "You might as well take some back first and ask your brother-in-law to find a reliable doctor to identify it and verify the effect himself. If it is really effective, we can discuss cooperation in detail. To be honest, this pill is not easy to make. There are only a dozen pills in stock at present, so the price is naturally high. You and your brother-in-law should think it over carefully. If he is willing to cooperate, I promise that this Tianxian Pill will only be supplied to him exclusively, and I will never let any third party know the source."
Looking at Zhang Laoer's confidence, Hu Bin's doubts gradually dissipated, replaced by curiosity and expectation about the unknown.
He readily agreed, thinking to himself that Baicaotang's situation had already reached rock bottom. If this elixir really had a miraculous effect, what would the power of the Cheng family matter to them in order to survive?
Perhaps, in the near future, the door of Baicaotang will be crowded with people looking to buy the Tianxian Pill, and this magical pill may even become popular in the capital!
Having made up his mind, Hu Bin's previous worries seemed to be blown away by a spring breeze. He began to look at every corner of Zhang Laoer's new home with great interest.
Although the Zhang family's former home was not luxurious, it had a rigorous layout, with every brick and tile revealing the owner's meticulousness and sophistication.
However, the thatched house that came into view at this moment seemed to be a witness to the vicissitudes of time, with the roof half collapsed and the thatch hanging in a mess.
Despite its dilapidated exterior, once you step into the courtyard, it feels like you have entered a different world.
In the corner, rows of pickle jars are arranged in an orderly manner. In the sunlight, the glaze sparkles with a warm luster, revealing the simplicity and warmth of life.
In the courtyard on the left, a unique swing hangs quietly between two old willow trees. The swing is a child's toy.
This swing was made by Xu Liyun herself. The rattan chair is made of fine materials and is skillfully made by the village weaving master to be both strong and elastic.
Zhang Laoer's words revealed his longing for future life in the city. He believed that there was no need to over-decorate the temporary residence, leaving room for him to devote more effort to his new home in the future.
Hu Bin looked at this simple yet warm swing and couldn't help feeling envious.
Ignoring his little mother's slightly reproachful look, he jumped on the swing like a child, letting it swing gently in the breeze.
Seeing this, Xiao Youniang just took her sister's hand, smiled gently, and her eyes were full of tolerance and understanding.
"Adults also have their own childishness. Weren't my brothers also naughty when they were young?"
Her words were full of consideration and love for adults. When Zhang Wuya heard this, the slight displeasure in her heart disappeared.
Time passed quietly. Because of his stay in Zhang's courtyard, Hu Bin missed the lunch and had to ride his horse back to his home in a hurry.
Thinking of the miraculous elixir in his heart, he only exchanged a brief greeting with his parents and then eagerly looked for his sister Hu Juan.
