The main thing was that I was scared.
Even on the way back, she repeatedly explained the reason why she did what she did at Guyin Temple, but the old man still looked worried.
There is nothing Su Qiao can do.
"Is everything okay?"
The old lady looked at the old man with a tired face, a little disbelieving.
Others following behind also felt that something must have happened.
Su Qiao helped the old man get on the kang. "It's really okay. The adult just asked grandpa to go over and ask about the mine. He was quite polite to my grandpa."
Old Master Su Returned to his own room and lay down on the familiar kang. This was when he finally recovered.
He waved his hand. "It's okay, you all go down and do whatever you have to do!"
"It's okay."
The old man said it was okay, and everyone felt relieved.
The old lady was still a little worried, so she came close to him and gently persuaded, "Old man, let's have another day of rest tomorrow and go harvest wheat the day after tomorrow, right?"
Su Qiao's heart moved. "Sir, I'm going to town tomorrow to sell things. My second brother has also made a lot of baskets. How about waiting another day?"
"That's okay!"
The old man is not very energetic. The injury he suffered in the mine has not completely healed yet. After being so frightened today, he really can't stand it.
Su Qiao glanced at the old man apologetically, left the old lady to take care of him, and turned around and left the upper room.
"Danie, where did you dig so many bamboo shoots?"
Madam Liu is hanging the bamboo shoots that have been blanched in hot water on the bamboo pole one by one, with the joy of harvest on his face.
"It's on the mountain to the north. There are probably fewer people going there, so I got a good deal."
Madam Liu was a little excited. "Is there more?"
"There are still some small ones. They will have to grow up in a few days before they can be harvested."
Hearing that there was more, Madam Liu suddenly became even more happy. "Then when it's time to pick it up, call the second aunt, and I will help you carry it."
"Okay."

After spending a day adding six or seven kinds of herbs including Tian Qi, Angelica dahurica, mint, and salt, and adding honeysuckle, basil, and so on, the tooth powder was finally ready.
Early the next morning, as soon as it was clear, Su Qiao carried the basket, took Little Haozi, who had been clamoring to go yesterday, and followed his second brother Su Yihe, who carried the basket and dustpan, to the town.
After walking more than ten miles on the mountain road and spending an hour and a half, the three of them finally arrived in the town.
At this time, there was already a lot of people in the town.
The shops on the street have already opened their doors, and the people setting up stalls in the small market have already taken their seats.
In particular, some vegetable sellers and groceries sellers came very early.
After helping second brother Su Yihe put the basket on the stall, Su Qiao went to the porcelain shop not far away.
Using the one hundred pennies she got from her mother, she bought a dozen ordinary small porcelain bottles, carefully poured the tooth powder in the bamboo tubes into them and plugged the openings.
Su Yihe squatted in front of the stall, and from time to time, he would look at the small stall in front of Su Qiao on the side.
The way he hesitated to speak made Su Qiao a little funny.
She knew that she felt that she had sold it too expensively and was feeling guilty.
Su Yihe asked tentatively, "Danie, how about... how about we lower the price a little further?"
Su Qiao looked at him very 'embarrassed': "Second brother, we use very precious medicinal materials. We don't make much money. If they are cheaper, we will lose money."
"Oh." Su Yihe scratched his head, hesitating to speak became entangled.
On the one hand, he felt that the price was too high, and selling it to others felt a bit deceptive. But on the other hand, he felt that Danie was right. Those medicinal materials were very precious, and they were rewarded by the adult above.
