9. Yakudo

This farce also subsided quickly. Taohua called Ding Yapo to come that day. Mother Song is in the prime of life, Qingguo is a flower-like age, and she is born well, even if she doesn't enter the dust realm, she is worth something. The mother and daughter made a total of thirty taels of silver, and found a buyer within a few days. but the merchants who passed through here bought them to serve on the ship.

Cao's original was supposed to be sold locally, but he was sad when he knew that he was sold on the ship, and it was difficult to speak, and his heart hurt after being bored for a long time. If you have to make a fuss about boiling porridge and medicine when you are next to you, this time I also know that the window paper can't be pierced, so I have to quietly ask someone to take the pills to eat. Fortunately, the Jiang family is a medicine maker, which is also convenient.

Cao didn't say it, and Taohua just didn't know, so he cleaned up the house again with the help of Song's mother, and took Mint out to the medicine hall.

The Jiang family pharmacy is different from other pharmacies, there is no Lang Zhong sitting in the hall, but only selling medicine. This is also because Jiang Fanghui was convicted in the palace that year, and the first emperor was angry and said that the Jiang family was not skilled in medicine and was not worthy of practicing medicine. Although it is just an angry sentence, not a clear purpose, but the emperor Chrysostom said, who knows who will make a fuss about this sentence one day? For the sake of prudence, Jiang Fangzheng, the old lady Jiang, not only resigned immediately, but also stopped seeing people, and warned his children and grandchildren not to practice medicine.

It's nothing to the big house. The eldest master Jiang Jun has regarded medical skills as a small way, and he has been determined to study and take the exam since he was a child. He was nineteen years old when the Jiang family had an accident, and he had already been lifted, and he had a bright future, so he wished that his father would abandon his practice of medicine, so as not to be driven away by the nobles in Beijing at will, and it was also a shame to say.

As for Jiang Zhu, who came out of the concubine, he had studied medical skills with Mrs. Jiang for a few years, but he was not very smart, according to Mrs. Jiang's standards, Jiang Zhu's talent was mediocre, and he was not qualified to diagnose people's pulses. Jiang Zhu himself didn't care very much, the old lady Jiang married a tea merchant girl for him, and since he got married, he has used the connections of the Yue family to go to business.

The big house is still like this, and the second room that is directly convicted is naturally more cautious. When Mrs. Jiang distributed the ancestral medicine hall to Jiang Xi, he had already set a new rule of not diagnosing the pulse and only selling medicine.

The addition of patent medicine is still Taohua's idea. When she crossed over, the original owner's body was only six years old, but because of Li's illness, the family was in chaos, and she neglected this somewhat stupid little girl, and she fell down the steps and hit the back of her head. Although the famous local lieutenant Lang was invited to wake people up, in fact, there was already a different one inside.

The daughter born by the Li family was also smart and clever when she was a child, but when she was three years old, she was pushed down by Jiang Jun's second daughter Jiang Danhua while playing, and she also hit the back of her head, and she was stupid when she woke up. Therefore, three years later, Taohua crossed over, and Lang Zhong said that the bruise that fell out last time was scattered by this knock, and her sobriety was regarded as a coincidence, and no one suspected that there was anything wrong.

There have been cases of scattered blood congestion for a long time, Jiang Xi is familiar with medical books, and naturally knows it, not to mention that his daughter's loss and recovery is simply God's favor, where would he think in other directions.

Jiang Xi's beloved wife is newly mourned, and only one daughter is left, so he naturally shifts his mind to Taohua and loves in every way. Taohua was born in a patriarchal family in her previous life, and because her father was the only daughter of her, she was often said by her uncles to be no queen and cut off the incense. In this life, there is a father who loves his daughter so much, although he came up halfway, but he is better than his own child. Now, seven years later, I have made this my real home.

The medicine hall is not far from the Jiang family's house, and Taohua doesn't need to call a sedan chair on the road that often comes and goes, only wearing a hat, and slowly walked over with mint.

The climate in the south is good, and the road is paved with bluestone slabs, which are not as dusty as the earth in the north. Taohua put on a homely old clothes, walked to the small door behind the side of the medicine hall, first dusted off the trousers and upper with a cloth duster, and then walked inside.

The Jiangjia Pharmacy Hall is divided into three places: the lobby, the medicine warehouse and the back hall. At this moment, the guy has already unloaded the door panel in the lobby to open the door to welcome guests, leaving only a ledger surnamed Song in the back hall, who was holding a pen and ink, and saw Taohua coming in, and hurriedly got up: "The big girl is here." "

"Uncle Song just sits." Taohua hurriedly waved her hand. Song is an old man in the pharmacy, and he is the same generation as Jiang Xi in terms of age, although Taohua is a girl from the owner's family, she never takes it in front of him.

"The girl hasn't been here for days. I heard that I went to Zhuangzi before, but what happened to Yaotian? "At the beginning, the second room of the Jiang family was convicted, and the personnel had to be reduced, and the Song account room could also leave. However, he was indifferent by nature, and he liked the Jiang family's leniency, so he simply stayed.

Song Accounts has watched Taohua grow up, since she took charge of the affairs of the medicine hall, she must come once every five days, but this time she delayed for ten days to come, but she was afraid that something would happen, so she hurriedly asked.

"Yakuda is nothing." Taohua only smiled, "It's just that my father went out, and I was afraid that something would go wrong, so I stayed in Zhuangzi for a few more days." "

Song was relieved, picked up the paper on the table and said, "Girl, come and see, the weather is getting hotter these days, and I wonder if I should prepare more medicinal oil and medicinal tea to cool off the heat." The aloe vera that the girl asked people to grow is very good, and the smell of the medicinal oil made is also light, so you should prepare more. "

Most of the girls and wives in the house don't like to move, and they are delicate and expensive, and they are too cold in winter and hot in summer. However, there are always some social interactions, which inevitably have to come out, and you can also hold a hand stove in winter, and there is nowhere to hide when it is hot in summer, and you don't dare to use ice much, and you are afraid of the cold.

In this way, the medicinal oil pill that relieves the heat will be useful. It's just that the smell of medicinal oil is strong, and it is indecent to smell it when it is applied to the body. Therefore, Taohua came out with a recipe, which mainly used mint, aloe vera and other substances, and the smell was much lighter, which was quite popular with the ladies of the house.

"Then Uncle Song will arrange it." Taohua has no objection. Song Ledger has a lot of vision in buying and selling, when to prepare what kind of medicine in the pharmacy, how much, most of the ideas are made by him, Taohua is just a private seal to get out of the account.

The two were talking, only to hear a cry coming from the lobby in front of them. Mint didn't need Taohua's instructions to take a look, and came back and said, "Girl, it's an old woman holding her grandson to grab medicine, the medicine money is not enough, please don't let us have a little." "

Wuxi is the ancestral home of the Jiang family, and there were rules when this medicine hall was first built. Later, the Jiang family's medicine hall became more and more famous, and this rule has been left as an ancestral teaching. Therefore, the Jiang family's reputation in Wuxi is so good, even if the second room is convicted in Beijing, it does not affect the reputation of the Jiang family in their hometown.

"The kid said that he had a cold, and taking three pairs of medicines was not only bad, but also heavier." Mint only looked at it a few times, but heard it clearly, "Look at that little face burned red, so pitiful." The old woman didn't have enough money to grab a pair of pills......"

"I'll take a look." Momoka frowned slightly. After taking three pairs of medicines, it is heavier, is this the wrong prescription, or is there something else?

Entering through the door connecting the front and back halls, Taohua found that other guests had come in at this moment, two men and two women, both standing by the door and watching the old woman kneeling on the ground with the child in her arms and kowtowing.

An older guy was already grabbing the medicine, and the other young guy easily helped the old woman up to the side of the chair and sat down, turned his head and saw Taohua, hurriedly came over to salute, and whispered: "Girl, the money for this medicine is ......" Although he knew that there was such a rule in the medicine hall, he was already grabbing the medicine, but Taohua came over, and he still had to ask.

This young guy is Poria's younger brother, named Sanqi, who only came to the medicine hall this year. Because of his lack of experience, he only sold some medicines, and he didn't dare to ask him to catch the medicine, but he was afraid that if he accidentally caught the wrong medicine for a while, or the wrong amount of medicine, it might kill him.

Momoka nodded at him. Although Poria is not good, her parents, mothers and younger brothers are all honest people, and it is for this reason that she did not kick Poria out, but only transferred to the Cao family's yard to continue to be her eldest maid.

The old woman saw a beautiful girl coming out from behind, although she was wearing half-used clothes, but she knew that she was a master when she looked like this, so she hurriedly hugged the child and wanted to get up again, but Taohua raised her hand to stop her: "Auntie, sit down." "

Momoka said as she glanced down at the child.

The child was only three or four years old, and he was not known to be malnourished or emaciated, and his little face looked only the size of a palm, and it was burned red. Because he was wrapped in a small quilt, his forehead was covered with fine sweat, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he had no energy.

Taohua frowned, turned her head to the guy who was grabbing the medicine, and said, "Huaishan, don't grab the medicine." "

The old woman was startled, and stood up suddenly: "Girl, girl—" She didn't know what to say, so she simply knelt down with a plop, "beg the girl to give up medicine to save my grandson's life." My son died, and my daughter-in-law went back to her parents' house, and this is the only root left. The girl saved my grandson, and I will repay the girl as a cow and a horse in my next life......" He kowtowed as he spoke, his voice hoarse, and his heart was sad to hear.

"Don't worry, auntie." Taohua hurriedly grabbed the old woman, "It's not that I don't give up this medicine, it's just this prescription - it's better for the eldest lady to go to the Rejuvenation Hall and ask the hall doctor to take a look." "

As he spoke, the child was already coughing, and his face seemed to be so red that he could drip blood, and he cried a few times with his eyes half-closed, and his voice was as weak as a kitten. The old woman was even more anxious, bowed her head and kowtowed again: "Girl, there is really no money at home, and I beg the girl to be kind-" The sitting doctor in the Huichun Hall costs 100 yuan just to diagnose the pulse, and she can't even make up the money to grab a pair of medicines, how can she go to see a doctor again?

"Hey, you don't mean that you don't want to give up money for medicine-" Among the four people by the door, a woman in a pink shirt had already spoken, "Send people to other medicine halls, what do you want to call the rejuvenation hall medicine?" "

"Dieyi-" Another woman in a green shirt stopped lightly, took a small ingot of silver from her sleeve and stepped forward and put it on the counter, "This guy, we will pay for the medicine, the child is burned like this, let's hurry up and grab the medicine." "

"Hmph, it is also said outside that the Jiang family has ancestral training, and the medicine is given to the doctor, but now it seems that it is all fake!" Dieyi stood aside and just sneered, "The medicine sold is useless, and it is no wonder that it was sold by the first emperor-" Before she could say anything, the person next to her coughed lightly, interrupting the second half of her sentence.

"Childe-" Dieyi bit her lip and looked angry, but still lowered her head. Anyway, they are not in a hurry at this time, they are also here to ask the teacher today, and it is not too late for the person in front to finish grabbing the medicine and leaving.

No one looked at the silver on the counter, and Huai Shan only looked at Taohua and waited for her to show it. Although he didn't understand why Taohua didn't let him grab the medicine, he knew that this big girl was not the one who couldn't be saved when he saw death, so he was afraid that there was something in it. Besides, he is serving the Jiang family's rice, no matter when, he should always listen to the owner first.

"Why don't you catch the medicine yet!" Seeing that Huai Shan did not move, Dieyi immediately raised her eyebrows again, "Could it be that you really want to wait for someone to die-"

"Shut up!" Taohua was looking down at the child, listening to Dieyi and teaching people again, she raised her voice and scolded. The old woman still wanted to kneel on the ground, but Taohua lifted her whole body up and pressed her to the chair with both arms, "Auntie, be quiet!" Reaching out and gently pinching the child's cheek, he opened his mouth and looked closely at his throat.

The old woman didn't expect that this delicate-looking girl had a lot of strength, and she couldn't get up for a while when she was pressed down on the chair. Taohua looked at it a few times, then straightened up and waved his hand to Huai Shan: "Don't grab the medicine." "

"You-" Even the face of the cicada changed now, "girl, we will pay for the medicine, so you don't want to take the medicine?" That's it, auntie, let's take you to another house to grab medicine. It may not be that only this pharmacy has medicine, and other people's medicine can't be saved? As he spoke, he reached out to get the silver on the counter, but Taohua grabbed the silver ingot in his hand first.

Song Baofang looked at it from behind, and he couldn't help but walk out: "Girl-" It's just a matter if you don't grab the medicine, how can you even grab the money in your hand on behalf of others, this is not very good-looking.

"Did you give this money to this lady?" Taohua took the silver ingot in her hand, and there were two taels. Sure enough, this group of people is wealthy, and the clothes on their bodies are not eye-catching, but the materials are excellent, especially the one in the middle who is called Gongzi, the pattern of the clothes seems to be the kind of dark silk treasure pattern that was woven to the capital a few years ago, most of them are the children of the official family in the capital, and the official position in the family should not be small.

"Yes." Cicada Yi was also a little annoyed, glanced at his son-in-law, and saw that he was still standing with his hands down, and didn't say anything, so he had to nod his head with anger, "You can afford to grab a few pairs of medicines, right?" I just don't know what the price of the Jiang family's medicine is. "

Taohua didn't pay attention to the words behind her, but simply nodded neatly: "Then I'll thank the girl on behalf of this lady." Sanqi! "

Sanqi hurriedly stepped forward: "Here." "

"You take the silver and lead this lady to Huichun Hall, and say that the person sent by the Jiang family asks Wu Lao Langzhong to immediately diagnose the child's pulse to see if it is cold or hot. After the prescription was formulated, I grabbed the medicine over there, and asked someone to boil it on the spot and give the child a drink first. "

Wind chill and wind heat are quite similar in appearance, but there are also many differences. Taohua knew that the two diseases had been confused for a long time in history, and only later did they distinguish them. She looked at the child's throat carefully just now, and it was red and swollen, it should be wind and heat. Lang Zhong, who went to see the old woman before, thought that he was not a smart person, or that the child's illness had just started at that time, and many symptoms had not yet appeared, so he was misdiagnosed.

There are several sitting doctors in the Rejuvenation Hall, each with their own strengths. Wu Lao Langzhong is not the most famous Langzhong in the Rejuvenation Hall, but he is very clear about the symptoms of wind, cold, wind and heat. Now that the child's symptoms have appeared, Wu Lao Langzhong will never be mistaken.

The old woman was still a little ignorant, but Sanqi had already sighed: "It turns out that the prescription is wrong!" Auntie, come with me. This recipe is wrong, it can't be used, it's not to save people, it's to kill people. "

Only then did the old woman understand, and hurriedly picked up the child, because she wanted to kowtow to Taohua, and was anxious to leave, her whole body showed a posture of kneeling and bending her upper body but twisting, and she almost couldn't stand steadily. Taohua stretched out his hand and slapped her: "Sanqi is holding the child." Auntie, go quickly, with the money from these people, the child will be fine. "

"Hey, hey!" The old woman looked grateful, and did not forget to kneel down and kowtow to Cicada Yi and the others, and then hurriedly followed Sanqi.

"Alright, let's put the herbs back." Taohua saw that Huaishan only grabbed a medicine, and there was no mutual contamination between the medicinal materials, so he waved his hand, turned around and walked inside.

"You wait!" Dieyi rushed out. Fang just counted this girl down, but in the end, it was the wrong party to use it, but it was his own side that did the wrong thing. How happy the count was just now, how hard it was to pass the face now. If Taohua turned her head and came to sarcasm, Dieyi was ready to fight back with a basket of words, but Taohua didn't even look at them and wanted to go in, but it was more annoying to Dieyi than cold words.

"If you want to grab medicine, please find a buddy." Taohua didn't plan to say more to this girl. These people knew that they were one master and three servants when they looked at the clothes, and the king of Hades was good at seeing that the little ghost was difficult, especially this butterfly clothes were not a fuel-efficient lamp.

If Fang Cai's group was just unwilling to give up the medicine because of a misunderstanding, Taohua didn't care. Whether he really wants to help others, or just to squeeze Jiang's Pharmacy, after all, people really took the money out. However, this person named Dieyi actually took out all the things about the second room's crime, but Taohua was really annoyed.

Jiang Fanghui's crime was that he was not skilled in medicine and killed the first emperor's virtuous concubine. However, in this era, the woman's childbirth was already a ghost gate, and Concubine Xian had a difficult birth at that time, thanks to Jiang Fanghui's superb medical skills, she gave birth to a son. Taohua also vaguely heard a few words from Jiang Xi, although Concubine Xian was bleeding at that time, it had stopped after Jiang Fanghui acupuncture, and then there was a blood collapse, and no one could say what had changed here.

At that time, the situation in the harem of the first emperor was quite complicated. The first queen, that is, the current queen mother, once gave birth to a son, the second, but died before the age of one, so the eldest prince born to the palace concubine was raised under his knees. And the one born to Concubine Xian is the fourth prince.

Although the eldest prince is raised in the middle palace, his mother is just a palace maid in the queen's palace, and her background is far inferior to that of the son of a virtuous concubine. In addition, the mother of the three princes is not from a high background, so if the crown prince is established, it may really be a chaotic war.

Under such circumstances, after giving birth, Concubine Xian had a blood collapse when the situation was stable, and the outsiders inside were tired or didn't know, but how could Old Lady Jiang, as an imperial doctor, not understand? And he knows his brother's medical skills best, ten-□□, Jiang Fanghui is giving people a tank.

But even if he knew, he couldn't save his brother's life, and the only thing he could do was to take the opportunity to resign and leave the dangerous place in the harem.

Innocently convicted, the Jiang family was unlucky enough, and this Dieyi had to take it out and say it, so Taohua couldn't help but be annoyed. She is not soft-tempered, so the old woman turned around as soon as she left, intending to hang Dieyi and her party there.
