Chapter 95: Gluttony is greedy

Doctor Hu instructed a few words, put away the medicine box, and prepared to leave. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It took a hundred days to break my muscles and bones, and there was nothing big about it anyway.

According to the rules, as long as the previous consultation fee is sufficient, there is no need to pay again.

Yuxiu thought that she couldn't let the family be empty-handed, so she thought about it and went to find a dried lotus leaf, wrapped a bag of dried pepper and salt loach made by herself, pulled the palm leaves that were split into silk and tied them tightly, and gave them to Dr. Hu.

In the village, palm leaves are always used as ropes. And the lotus leaves were specially picked and collected by Yuxiu.

Because Yan Qingshan said that he had eaten steamed vegetables wrapped in lotus leaves outside, which were particularly delicious and had the fragrance of lotus leaves.

Originally, there were many lotus flowers in the south of the Yangtze River, and the lotus leaves would be used as a package, but with Yan Qingshan's words, the Wang family would pick more every year, dry them and collect them, and use them to steam vegetables or wrap things.

This habit has been infected by everyone in the family unconsciously.

Yuxiu followed the Wang family to pick lotus leaves and dry lotus leaves in previous years, so as soon as she returned home, she would pick some and collect them at home when she had time.

In her previous life, she also saw the doctor take lotus leaves into medicine, lotus leaves have the effect of cooling and defeating fire and relieving oiliness.

Yuxiu's hands and feet were neat, and she wrapped the bag of dried loaches squarely, tied a palm leaf with a tie, and tied a beautiful knot, "Doctor Hu, thank you for your hard work." The dried loaches we bake ourselves are not valuable, you can take them home and taste them. ”

"Oh, that's so embarrassing, how embarrassing." Dr. Hu politely excused himself for a while, but still took the lotus leaf bag.

Yudong sent him outside the door and watched him walk up the river embankment road to the north before coming home and bolting the door.

Yan Qingjiang was able to get out of bed, and happily sat at the door and refused to go back to the house. Yudong had to sit there by him, and Yuliang took a wooden stick to practice calligraphy on the dirt floor of the courtyard.

Yudong thought that Tian Shui still had to go and have a look, and went to Dongshan to take a look at it at night, and Jin Mantang's family actually set up a shed over there, and the father and son took turns to sleep outside. Jin Mantang saw Yudong coming, chatted with him a few words, and drove him home.

Yuxiu baked the loaches, cleaned up the stove, and urged several people in the family to take a bath and sleep. Speaking of which, their family is really different from other people's homes in terms of love for cleanliness.

When he was a child, Yan Qingshan asked them to take a bath and wash often, even in winter, they had to take a bath for two or three days. Therefore, people in the village said that when the children of the Yan family came out, they were all fragrant. The children in the village also love to play with them.

Yan Qingjiang was not so particular about it, and he couldn't stand Yuxiu, so he always asked him to take a bath with disgust.

Now I am forced by a few children to take it, but I change into clean clothes every day, and there is no smell of sweat.

Dr. Hu took the bag of dried loaches and threw it on the table in the hall without taking it seriously. Zhuanghuan, when there is no food to eat, get some dried loaches as meat dishes.

The next day, it happened that the shopkeeper of the pharmacy in Yunchang Town came to his house to look for him.

Because Dr. Hu is a rural man, he mainly treats farmers in several nearby villages, and his income is not much. In the Zhuang family, most of the minor illnesses are stubbornly resisted and do not see a doctor. If you really have a serious illness, you can't afford to pay for medicine from a doctor.

Unlike the famous doctors in the town, if you see a doctor for a rich family, you can get a reward in addition to the consultation fee.

In Dr. Hu's family, it can only be said that life is better than that of the Zhuang family. But there are also several sons and daughters in the family, and the expenses are also a lot.

Therefore, in addition to practicing medicine, he also farmed at home, he also went to the mountains to collect medicine, and the family also planted a medicine field.

These medicinal herbs, except for their own medicine, are sold to the town's pharmacy.

The shopkeeper of this pharmacy will come to Dr. Hu's house every year to see the output of their medicine field, estimate the purchase price, and if it is a sought-after medicinal material, he can also pay a fixed amount or something.

When Dr. Hu saw him, he was very happy, "I guess you should come in the next few days." ”

"yes, what did my brother plant this year? Let's go, take me there. ”

As soon as the shopkeeper of the pharmacy arched his hand, said hello, and took Dr. Hu to the medicine field to see the medicine.

It's about the same every year, and the old customers don't have much to say, and they quickly finalize this year's acquisition.

Doctor Hu of the pharmacy saw that at this hour, it was too early for lunch, so he asked his daughter-in-law to cook a few snacks and ask the shopkeeper to have a drink.

Dr. Hu's daughter-in-law cleaned up the table in the hall, and when she looked at the lotus leaf bag on the table, she knew that it must have been sent by someone. She opened it and saw that it was a bag of dried loaches, and saw that the color was bright, as if it was better than her own, and the dried loaches she made had not had time to apply salt, so she simply put the bag of loaches on a plate and brought it to the guests.

The shopkeeper of this pharmacy was already an acquaintance, and he was not formal, and he didn't shirk it, so he sat down to have a few drinks with Dr. Hu.

There are several vegetables on the table, all of which are in season.

"Lao Hu, your dried loach tastes good." He looked at the plate of loaches and tasted one, this taste seems to be better than the restaurant in the town?

Dr. Hu thought he was polite, "You're polite, it's not all that taste." ”

"No, this year's sister-in-law is different, crispy and delicious, even the saltiness is appropriate, it's really delicious." The shopkeeper of this pharmacy is a glutton, so he stutters. In the past few years, he has eaten everything that can be eaten in Yunchang Town, and he can say that there are really not many delicious ones.

He picked up another one, took small bites into his mouth, and tasted it again, "What's in here?" It tastes really aftertaste, and it's baked crispy, so it doesn't seem to be all fried, right? How much did my sister-in-law do? If you want to have it, go back and wrap it for me. ”

Dr. Hu didn't look like a compliment, so he also picked up one and ate it, not to mention, this taste is really not the usual taste at home.

Dried loaches are almost done in every family, and the practice is similar, throw the loaches into the big iron pot and bake them dry, dry them in the sun, and smear them with some salt.

Their family's life is much better than that of other people's, so his daughter-in-law will be willing to fry it with some oil and fry it, and then mix it with coarse salt.

The dried loach produced in this way has a smoky taste and a salty taste, and the salt grains are extremely salty when you eat them, and the places without salt grains are light and tasteless.

And if you use fried crispy, you do feel greasy if you eat too much, especially in this summer, and it is easy to accumulate food. However, the plate in front of me is more crispy than what they make at home, with just the right amount of saltiness, and a smell of rice and mugwort leaves?

"This smells so good, I'm going to ask my family."

He had eaten home-made dried loaches, and of course he knew that it didn't taste like this, so he went to the stove and asked.

His daughter-in-law said, "This dried loach is the one you threw on the table, the bag you took the lotus leaf bag." ”

Doctor Hu patted his head and thought that it was given by Yudong's family in Dongping Village, "Brother, this bag of dried loaches is really not made by my family, it was sent by me to the people who saw them." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he sighed regretfully, so he had to eat a few more in front of him.
