67. Yang deficiency
A serious sentence frightened Yu Sirui first: "What serious illness?" β
Taohua said steadily: "Yang deficiency." And it's already very heavy. β
"Yang deficiency?" Yu Sirui was stunned at first, then laughed out loud and pointed to his nose, "Uncle Ben has yang deficiency?" Hahahaha, Miss Jiang, do you know what yang deficiency is? Uncle Ben's body has always been strong and vigorousβ" he said, leaning forward with a lewd face, and deliberately lowered his voice, "As long as you try, you will know that Uncle I-"
Jiang Xi's lungs were about to explode, and he was about to rush forward regardless of it, but he was grabbed by the wrist by the old lady Jiang and said in a low voice: "Listen to her!" β
Jiang Xi was so anxious that he couldn't do it, but when he turned his head, he found that his uncle's eyes were staring at Taohua tightly, as if he was listening to something terrible, and the five fingers holding his wrist were like iron hoops, so he had to reluctantly press them.
only listened to his daughter's words before Si Rui finished speaking, so she cut him off: "Does Uncle often take Golden Cherry Seed Ointment?" β
Yu Sirui thought that his obscene words would inevitably make this girl blush-faced and even cry angrily, but it completely backfired, and the girl in front of him didn't even look away, just looked at him lightly, which made him wonder if this girl hadn't been enlightened yet, and didn't understand what he was talking about? But the words of Jin Yingzi ointment fell on his ears, which made him hesitate: "What did you say?" β
He did use some medicine, but it wasn't a rejuvenation. At his age, there are many people who still linger in the flowers, and many of them have already had to use rejuvenating medicine to achieve things, and he has never had to be like this, and he is even quite proud of it, and he feels that he is very talented. Whether it is the concubine or the Oiran he frequents in the Qinglou, everyone has to say "Uncle is majestic", and the one who says that he is yang is the first one in his life.
"Uncle has used golden cherry seed cream, right?" Taohua is still faint, as if to say, "Uncle has porridge for breakfast today", "Golden cherry seeds have the effect of astringent essence, if it is not for slippery sperm, it should not be commonly used." β
At this time, Yu Sirui felt that his face was extremely rare: "You, what did you say?" "He did use a medicine, which also came from the Qinglou, not to help him, but to make him lose his body more slowly and prolong his life more. He also asked someone to show Lang Zhong the medicine, saying that it was nothing more than some warm medicinal materials, as if it had the taste of golden cherry seeds. But this kind of thing was broken by a girl on the spot, and even he felt a little ......
Rouge was dumbfounded, some of the maids who served her had not yet broken their bodies, and their faces were already flushed with shame, what was astringent and slippery, but should the words come out of the girl's mouth?
Taohua calmly took the opportunity to take a step back and stay away from Yu Sirui: "Uncle has been taking this medicine for a long time, covering up his illness, and now he looks good on the outside, but it is already empty inside." Uncle must abstain from sexual intercourse. β
Yu Sirui was stunned at first, and then became angry: "You dare to talk nonsense and curse Benbo!" β
"That's it!" Rouge saw the opportunity, and immediately screamed, "Uncle's face is ruddy, Ryoma spirit, what is good on the outside and empty on the inside, you are simply bold!" Don't get her up yet! β
The maids were so frightened by Taohua's words that Shen Shu had already taken the opportunity to push them away and insert them between Yu Sirui and Taohua: "Why should Cheng Enbo be angry. Since the doctor is not shy about the disease, since Cheng Enbo is going to ask Miss Jiang for a diagnosis, he also said that he has been unwell recently, why do he blame the doctor at this time? β
Yu Sirui was furious: "Ridiculous! Where does Benber look like a yang deficiency? It's just nonsense, it's clearly a curse on Benbo! β
Shen Shu smiled slightly: "Although this king is not skilled in medicine, he has also heard that Bian Que met Cai Huangong." If the quack doctor cures the disease, the good doctor cures the disease, and if the patient is punished for this, who will dare to treat the disease for the future for the patient? β
Yu Sirui was so angry that his chest hurt: "King Anjun, you!" "This man keeps saying that he will be cured, isn't this a curse that he will be sick? I want him to be alive and vibrant, and it's rare to even have a headache and brain fever in a year, but these two people work together to sing and harmonize, which is really hateful! He almost wanted to call the house slave to come up and arrest someone immediately, but when he saw Shen Shu, he still barely kept his senses.
In the end, this person is the son of the first emperor, the younger brother of the present, he has been crowned the king of the county, and his uncle, who holds the military power in the northwest, even his queen mother and aunt are afraid of one or two, so they can only suppress him in secret, and they can't do anything publicly. What's more, he is just an earl and has no real power, according to his grade, he has to salute and greet Shen Shu first. If there is an open conflict, not only will it be detrimental to you, but it may also involve your aunt......
Although Cheng Enbo is not doing his job, he still knows one thing - he now relies on his queen mother's aunt, aunt is here, he is glorious, if his aunt does not become it, he will not succeed. Therefore, Chengenbo Mansion has always regarded the Queen Mother's yes as the right and the Queen Mother's wrong.
For example, if the Queen Mother wants to marry the Lord of Nanhua to him, he has to happily say that he likes the Lord of Nanhua. If the Queen Mother feels that she can't do anything with the first emperor, he has to say that it is good to marry someone else. He wouldn't even understand that the Lord of Nanhua was mediocre in appearance, and he couldn't look down on it at all, because the Queen Mother still liked the Lord of Nanhua quite much, after all, she was a person who was raised under her knees.
Therefore, Cheng Enbo, who seems to only be able to fight cocks and lackeys to find flowers and ask willows, actually has a bit of survival wisdom.
At this time, his head burned by anger still maintained a little sanity - don't worry, our gentleman will take revenge, ten years is not too late! When the Queen Mother's aunt finds a way to clean up this King of Anjun, it will be too late for him to take revenge today. Even if he can't clean up King Anjun, when he returns to the northwest, he can still clean up the Jiang family. At that time, snatch this girl who dares to talk nonsense into her own house, and see what her little mouth can say! When the time comes, maybe it's just -- uh-huh, it's fun to think about!
Cheng Enbo comforted himself with this little conjecture, and led the person away with a gloomy face. Rouge was still a little unwilling, but looking at Yu Sirui's face, he wisely closed his mouth and weakly helped the maid to follow.
As soon as they left, Jiang Xi rushed up and grabbed his daughter: "Have you been touched by him?" Touching the body without a handkerchief, he lifted his sleeves and slapped the placket of his daughter's clothes, as if Yu Sirui stood in front of him for a while, and then fell a layer of dust.
Taohua couldn't cry or laugh a little: "Dad, it's nothing, it's just that I was rubbed by a leper dog." Today thanks to His Royal Highness the King of the County. β
Jiang Xinghua only reacted at this time, pounced on Taohua and hugged Taohua, and cried: "Third sister, I was scared to death." If it weren't for His Royal Highness the King of the County, I'm afraid we would all be arrested by that Cheng Enbo! β
Jiang Xi woke up suddenly, and hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Thank you His Royal Highness the King of the County for your help, the little girl was spared, and I am grateful." β
Shen Shu waved his hand: "Mr. Jiang doesn't have to be like this. Cheng Enbo's behavior is ridiculous, and I just can't see it. Mr. Jiang also helped me last time, and I should reciprocate the courtesy. What's more, let love not be afraid of dangerβ" he said this, and suddenly swallowed back the second half of his sentence. Taohua was indeed very calm, and it could even be said that it was her words that discouraged Yu Sirui from continuing to tease her. It's just those words...... It's better not to mention it.
He didn't mention it, and of course the Jiang family wouldn't mention it. Old lady Jiang also came up and thanked Shen Shu: "The Jiang family is grateful for the great grace of the prince. β
It made Shen Shu a little untenable: "The old gentleman doesn't have to be polite. It's just that I'm afraid that it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, so it is better to return home as soon as possible. β
Today's blind date was stirred up by Yu Sirui, and the old lady Jiang also felt extremely unlucky, so he didn't want to stay longer, said goodbye at the moment, and saw Shen Shu leave, before turning his head and saying to the old lady Ou with a wry smile: "Brother Ou, it's bad luck to travel today, let's talk about it another day." β
The two families said goodbye, the Ou family went to the outside of the temple, and the Jiang family went to the apse meditation room. Jiang Xinghua held Taohua's hand tightly, and tears kept falling. Taohua said helplessly: "Fourth sister, it's okay anymore." Don't cry anymore, scare Bai Ge'er. β
Jiang Bohua had never seen such a scene, although he didn't understand what was going on, but in a blink of an eye, the familiar relatives were gone, although he was held by Mrs. Ou, but it was a strange woman, so he naturally cried loudly, until Taohua held him in his arms, and slowly calmed down.
He is taller now, Taohua is extremely difficult to hold him with one hand, but Jiang Xinghua is holding her other hand again, and she has to remind her, so she withdrew her hand, lifted Jiang Bohua up, and coaxed: "Brother Bai is not crying anymore, my sister is fine, my father is fine, I am just playing with those people." β
Jiang Bohua sobbed and said, "Really? "In my little heart, I think that the scene is so terrible, it doesn't look like a joke.
"Really." Taohua hugged him and shook it, feeling that her arms were a little sore, but the little guy's fat arms were tightly wrapped around her neck, and she couldn't put it down at this time, "Look, isn't my sister okay at all?" β
Jiang Baihua looked at Jiang Xinghua: "The fourth sister is crying." β
Jiang Xinghua hurriedly wiped her face with a handkerchief, and squeezed out a smile: "The fourth sister didn't cry, it was the wind blowing the sand that blinded her eyes." β
This lie is also too clumsy, but children are still easy to deceive, and Jiang Bohua was blinded by the sand a few days ago, and he also cried bitterly at that time, and when he thought about it, he believed Jiang Xinghua's words and gradually stopped crying.
Taohua carried him all the way back to the meditation room, feeling that both arms were about to break. No matter how energetic she is, she will almost be unable to withstand this little fat man.
Finally, the meditation room was in sight, and as soon as Mrs. Jiang and her party walked to the door, a young man in his twenties helped an old woman out of it, and Jiang Nanhua saw him off behind him, and raised his hand at the door: "Brother Liu and Mrs. Liu walk slowly." β
Jiang Xinghua stood stiffly as if he had been struck by lightning. The young man looked good-looking, a half-worn blue bamboo cloth robe was cleanly washed, and a dark blue rim was rolled around the cuffs, which was both beautiful and durable. Just looking like this, everyone will think that this is a personable student, although he is cold at home, but he does not lose his dignity.
As for the old woman beside him, she was wearing a light blue cocoon silk shirt, a dark horse-faced skirt underneath, a neat bun on her head, and a silver hairpin with the word "longevity", dressed as a widow, obviously her widow.
The son wears a patched bamboo robe, but the mother wears a half-new silk shirt, who doesn't want to be filial? But only Jiang Xinghua knew that this cloth robe should be used exclusively when going out, although it was not silk at home, it would not wear patched clothes. These two people, besides Liu Zhijing and Liu's mother and son, who else!
Old lady Jiang and his party had already walked to the door, Jiang Nanhua had just said goodbye to Liu Zhijing, and in a blink of an eye, he saw his grandfather and uncle, and hurriedly saluted again. Liu Zhijing also raised his hand: "Old man." β
"This isβ"
Jiang Nanhua hurriedly said: "Grandfather, this is Mr. Liu Zhijing, the Jishi of the Hanlin Academy, and this is Mrs. Liu." The fifth sister went to see the three towers, and she twisted her foot unintentionally, and it was the two of them who sent people back. β
The girl's family is good for chastity, and when she goes out to see a scenery and sprains her foot, it is a gaffe to say, and she is sent back by a young man, which is even more difficult to say, but fortunately there is a widow in the middle, and it is not rude.
Anyway, it wasn't Jiang Nanhua's sister who had an accident, so there was no pressure on him to say it. To be honest, this cousin of my uncle's family, in his eyes, is really useless, needlework is not successful, poetry and books are not enough, there are no rules, and I can twist my foot even to see the three towers, do you walk without looking at the road? Girls have to walk slower, how fast do you have to break to fall?
Old lady Jiang also frowned slightly, and thanked Liu Zhijing's mother and son first. Liu Zhijing held his mother with one hand and said with a smile: "Where the old gentleman said it, it's just a stopby, and it's not worth mentioning." Leave. He didn't squint, but when he turned around, he glanced at the two girls behind him out of the corner of his eye, and then helped Liu and walked away.
Liu has always maintained a widow's style, sideways to avoid the old lady Jiang and Jiang Xi, and then walked out of the road for a while, and then whispered: "This old man is the imperial doctor back then?" β
Liu Zhijing straightened his waist and said in a low voice: "It should be it." The one behind is about the son of Dr. Jiang Xiao. β
"Oh-" Liu was not interested in the sinner, "the one who twisted his foot today is Jiang Langzhong's concubine, you see......"
Liu Zhijing said indifferently: "It's hard to say. Although Jiang Langzhong is only a fifth-grade now, his concubine is afraid that he will not marry low. It's the other one, but it's actually a good birth. β
Liu Shi was a little regretful: "I'm afraid that it is a concubine, look at the appearance of the only one, and I am afraid that I can't pay attention to it at home." In the future - I am afraid that the dowry will not be much. β
Liu Zhijing said with a smile: "What do you want to do so much for the dowry, the emperor likes to be thrifty." β
Liu thought for a while: "It's too young to ...... young."
Liu Zhijing shook his head and said, "It's just a coincidence today, just take this opportunity to talk to Jiang Langzhong." Although his daughter has some holy grace in the palace, it is difficult to say what will happen in the future. β
Liu sighed: "You are also twenty-four, and you always have to be a kiss to me to rest assured." β
Liu Zhijing only smiled: "The eldest husband only suffers from a career and does not stand up, so why should he have no wife." Don't worry, mother, I'm just studying in the Hanlin Academy now, and I don't even have a real shortage, and I may not be willing to marry if I have a daughter. When the next year is three years old, he will always find an errand, and it will not be too late to mention his relatives at that time. β
The Liu family was still in a hurry to hug his grandson, and said hatefully: "It's also that the Tan family is useless, and in the past few years of marriage, he can't even give birth to an egg!" β
"If she really gave birth, I'm afraid it won't be good. Which daughter is willing to marry and be a stepmother? Liu Zhijing is still light-hearted, "It's better to be now, there is no concern, the Tan family is divorced, and he is still a yuan match when he marries, and it sounds good to say it." β
Liu was persuaded by his son and stopped chattering, and the mother and son left slowly.
Here Jiang Xinghua can only move her steps for a long time, so that Taohua looked at her pale, and when she was really frightened by Yu Sirui: "Fourth sister, go in and sit down, go home and ask Wisteria to boil a tranquilizer to drink." "It's no wonder that a girl who is only thirteen years old, a few foreign men have never seen her, and she has never seen hooligans, and she is scared.
Jiang Xinghua nodded inward, and as soon as he entered the meditation room, he was glanced at by Xiao Shi. Looking at Jiang Danhua sitting on the couch in the meditation room, with tears in his eyes, Jiang Yanhua and Cao looked helpless next to him.
Xiao Shi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Old Lady Jiang: "Father is back." Sister Dan sprained her foot, her father should take a look at her, it hurts so much that she can't move! β
Old lady Jiang said with a calm face: "What's the matter? β
Xiao Shi hurriedly said: "Sister Dan took Sister Yan to see the Three Towers, but the girls didn't hold on to it on the way, and stepped on a stone ......" In fact, Jiang Danhua wanted to go out and didn't want to be alone, so he pulled Jiang Yanhua to go.
Jiang Yanhua stood to the side, her lips tightly closed. She was unwilling to go, but the Cao family was snubbed by Jiang Xi these days, and she wanted to please everyone, seeing that Jiang Yanhua was not moving, and the faces of the Xiao family and the Yu family were not good, so she agreed to it. Since she responded, Jiang Yanhua had no choice but to follow, but refused to say more. Jiang Danhua puffed and straightened his head forward, he didn't look at the road carefully, but at this time he said that he was taking her to see the Three Towers, as if the sprain was all for her.
Old lady Jiang naturally knew the problems of her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, and asked the maid to fade Jiang Danhua's embroidered shoes and socks with a calm face, only to see that the ankle was red, but it was not swollen, so she knew that the twist was not heavy: "Go back and ask the maids to rub the bruising wine, don't go to the ground these days, let alone go out." "Since the road is not good, what else is there to go out?
Xiao Shi reluctantly agreed, saw Jiang Xinghua's red eyes, and couldn't help but say: "Sister Xing'er, what's wrong, I went out and came back like a red-eyed mother, but what happened?" β
Old lady Jiang's face was even heavier: "Don't say more, clean up for Dan girl, and go back." β
It's a good trip, and in the end it ends up like this, it can really be said that you go away with the excitement and return with the excitement. As soon as he got home, Jiang Xi didn't care about anything else, and followed Baicaozhai first: "Uncle, is Chengen Boken okay?" β
Old lady Jiang's face was extremely ugly: "I'm afraid he won't." Fortunately, there is King Anjun blocking today, but King Anjun can't help us for the rest of our lives! Originally, I thought that Taohua would go to the palace to see Sister Mei and check the pulse, but now it seems that I am afraid that I will have to go to the palace a few times. Now, there is only one way to use the emperor's words to pressure Chengenbo. β
Jiang Xi was a little depressed: "Today is really thanks to King Anjun." "Fortunately, I saw that it was a fake medicine in the West Market that day, otherwise my daughter might have been humiliated today.
Old lady Jiang also sighed: "Yes, you should prepare a gift to send over." It's just that the Jiang family is also a medium-sized family, and it is really a bit unsightly to give a "generous gift" to the king of the county.
Jiang Xi's mind turned, and he had an idea: "It's better to send some medicinal herbs." "Seeing that the king of Anjun has to buy even a cart of medicinal materials, it can be seen that the northwest lacks this.
Old lady Jiang didn't know about Xishi yet, so she nodded after hearing what he said: "You are right." "Turning around and calling licorice," bring me the carved lacquer box in my cupboard. β
Licorice came over with a palm-sized box, and Mrs. Jiang directly pulled out two pieces of paper from it: "This is two thousand taels of silver tickets, you take it and look at it." β
Jiang Xi was taken aback: "Uncle, what are you doing!" Taohua is my daughter, so naturally I will buy it. β
"Isn't it my niece?" Old lady Jiang pulled down his face, the blind date in Xingjiao Temple was the place he chose, who knew that it would end up like this, he felt both guilty and sorry for Taohua, "You take the silver ticket, don't let me talk so much nonsense!" Although your uncle is not a rich man, he has a little money in his private house. It's just that today, I'm afraid the Ou family will ......."
Jiang Xi chuckled in his heart: "Does the Ou family dislike Taohua being trivialized?" Taohua didn't let the surname Yu touch it from beginning to end! "Speaking of which, I feel that King Anjun has come in time.
Old lady Jiang shook his head: "It's not that the surname Yu touched, it's - what Sister Tao said today......"
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment, and after a little recollection, his face changed a little: "Taohua was also forced!" What's more, practicing medicine is such a thing, and you don't shy away from it...... "He said, his voice became lower and lower, "The Ou family, the Ou family should also know this truth." β
Healing is the same as writing an article. If it is said that for the sake of great defense, it has to go back to the era when women could not invite men to come to check the pulse. However, the Jiang family has practiced medicine for generations, and understands this truth, the Ou family is not a practitioner of medicine, and it is reasonable if they can't accept the statement that a girl who has not left the cabinet is astringent and slippery.
"You don't have to worry too much." Old lady Jiang wiped her face and cheered up, "In today's trouble, they should also be able to see that Sister Tao has a tough temperament and can afford it." If it is - if their family is unwilling, let's find another family, Sister Tao is a good one, are you still afraid that you won't be able to get married? β
When Taohua first entered Beijing, Mrs. Jiang only thought that this niece and granddaughter were capable. At a young age, he took care of the family's affairs, and he could get along peacefully with his stepmother and stepsister, so it can be seen that he can be a man. Of course, the old man can see that the Cao family is pressed by Taohua, but people are always a little eccentric, and the step-nephew and daughter-in-law are mediocre at first glance, and there is no need for capable people in the family, can it not be fooled?
And Taohua also understands medical skills, and sorts out medicine books for Jiang Xi, both of which greatly invest in the fate of the old lady: the former is to inherit the Jiang family's family learning, and the latter is filial to his father. Filial piety is the same thing, food and clothing are the same, entertainment is another, and it is a little more upscale.
Capable and filial, such a girl is almost the same as being a daughter-in-law. European Airlines is the son of an old friend, and Mrs. Jiang really wants to pick a good one for her niece and granddaughter, and she can't pit other people's children, right?
But after today's episode, the old man found that this niece and granddaughter are not only capable, but responsible.
