Chapter 18: The Female Doctor
Linglong didn't expect that the eldest aunt Nie would be so quick in doing things. Just after the Dragon Boat Festival, the doctor Nie found came to the door.
What everyone didn't expect was that this doctor turned out to be a woman!
There are not many female doctors in the capital, and they can be counted on one hand, and they are all to see women's diseases. And this female doctor is not one of these people, she is the proprietress of Jirentang, the largest medicinal herb shop in the capital.
The female husband's mother-in-law's surname is Sun, and she is called Sun Sanniang in the capital. Those who open a medicinal herb shop understand medical science, and Sun Sanniang is naturally a doctor, but her fame as a doctor is far less than her fame in the boudoir. Just because she deserves a good balm, women love beauty, and the wives and ladies of big families are even more so, Sun Sanniang's balm is not even comparable to the largest fat powder shop in the capital, her reputation is getting bigger and bigger, and the ladies in the palace heard about it, so they summoned her into the palace at two ends in three days, and prepared a balm for the ladies to wipe their faces and wipes their hands.
Because they want to enter the palace to mix balm for the ladies, in the past two years, it will be difficult for the ladies and ladies in the capital to buy balm from Sun Sanniangzi, and a small box of balm with the Jirentang logo on the market can be sold for more than a dozen taels of silver!
Unexpectedly, the person invited by the Nie family was Sun Sanniang, Linglong didn't expect it, and even Jin Min and Jin San were surprised.
He thought that the Nie family would invite a doctor who specializes in treating madness to come over, but he didn't expect that it would be Sun Sanniang, who was making balm for the girls.
Sun Sanniang is different from ordinary doctors, she is familiar with the queen and the masters of various palaces. Jin Min is in the officialdom, and she knows that people like Sun Sanniang can't be offended and annoys her, who knows how she will play right and wrong in front of the nobles in the palace.
Jin Yuan fell into the water, the Xu family did not express its position for a long time, and rumors spread in the capital. Jin Min was in the yamen, and a colleague asked him with a mysterious face that he wanted his two daughters to marry together, which made him eager to find a hole to get into.
This matter already annoyed him, but he didn't expect another Sun San lady to come, it was really uneven and wave after wave, he had to tell Song Xiuzhu to treat this female doctor well, no matter how the treatment is, the consultation fee is indispensable.
Xu is often walking around the palace, Sun Sanniang is also contaminated with the style of the noble lords, with a stubborn face, Song Xiuzhu is full of smiles, be careful to greet her, she doesn't even give a corner of her eye.
"What about the eldest lady and Miss Yan of your mansion, please bring your concubine over for consultation."
Song Xiuzhu's polite words were not finished, and Sun Sanniang stopped all her words in one sentence.
I heard that the female doctor is coming, and Linglong is already waiting in Rongyuan. She changed her mother into clean and neat clothes, and she wore a satin jacket with a moon-white tassel pattern and an aqua blue moon shadow skirt, which was elegant and dignified.
Song Xiuzhu invited Sun Sanniang to Rongyuan with a smile, she didn't want Sun Sanniang to stay here for a long time, so she said: "Don't hide it from Sanniang, I still have a daughter in my family who is sick, or Sanniangzi is free, let's take a look." ”
Sun Sanniang seemed to smile: "It's the young lady who fell into the water, it's just typhoid fever, and it will be good for a few days." ”
This Sun San Lady didn't leave any face when she spoke, Jin Yuan fell into the water was a scandal, so she said it lightly and lightly, Song Xiuzhu immediately oozed sweat beads on the tip of her nose, but she was still smiling, and Zhang Luo Linglong helped Feng Shi to come out of the back room to see the doctor.
Sun Sanniang glanced at Song Xiuzhu lukewarmly, and said, "If the second wife has no other instructions, please go back." When the concubine is inconvenient for others to be present, please ask the second wife to bear with her. ”
Song Xiuzhu was so angry that her silver teeth were crushed, since Linglong came back, everything went wrong in the house, and now even a doctor dares to point fingers at her, she has the heart to not leave, but on one side of her face, she saw Linglong's wonderful eyes looking at her, a little girl who is only twelve years old, but a pair of bright eyes have been revealed.
Song Xiuzhu's heart sudden, her palms were covered with cold sweat, but she comforted herself, she was just a twelve-year-old girl, how much ability she could have.
Thinking of this, she was a little relieved, smiled and saluted Sun Sanniang, and told the maids to serve well, and then walked out of Rongyuan with all manners.
In the main room, Linglong secretly looked at Sun Sanniang, and saw that this woman was about forty, her head and face were bare, and her sharp eyes were shrewd. Wearing a long gown with a treasure pattern, and a bracelet of mutton fat and white jade on his wrist, he knew that the price was expensive at a glance, maybe it was the color of the palace.
After a long time, she asked softly, "Has the third lady ever encountered a patient like her mother?" ”
Sun Sanniang looked at Feng Shi and said lightly: "I have encountered it, but because the concubine has a specialty, this disease has never been cured." ”
This should have been a disheartening sentence, but Linglong was happy in her heart. The eldest aunt was able to find this Sun San Niang, thinking that this person was what she was looking for.
Linglong got straight to the point and asked, "Does the third lady know anything about medicinal materials?" ”
Sun Sanniang smiled proudly: "I heard that Miss Jin Wu just arrived in the capital, and I don't know about the concubine." The concubine's family is a medicine shop, if you talk about the mastery of medicinal materials, the concubine has some experience. ”
Linglong gave Xingyu a look, and Xingyu pulled the mother-in-law who took care of Feng's into the back room, leaving only Linglong, Feng and Sun Sanniang in the main house.
Linglong took out a brocade bag from her sleeve, and she carefully unfolded it, and inside was half a piece of incense cake and a pinch of incense ash.
"The third lady wants to come and heard of Baihuixiang, I have half a fragrant cake here, and I bother the third lady to help me see what's wrong."
Sun Sanniang picked up the half of the fragrant cake, put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it, but she didn't feel anything strange, so she said: "This fragrant cake is brought back by the concubine, and I will come to visit the eldest lady and the fifth lady another day." ”
After speaking, Sun Sanniang didn't even drink tea, turned around and left Rongyuan.
Outside the garden, there were already maids and mothers-in-law waiting for her, Linglong saw those figures from afar, and praised the eldest aunt in her heart for having a vision, this Sun San Niangzi not only has rules to do things, understands proportions, and is refreshing, never dragging mud and water, very good temper for Linglong.
Linglong returned to the house and saw that Feng was still sitting upright. It was rare for her to sit for such a while, and Linglong didn't want to disturb her, so she moved the pestle and sat next to Feng.
Feng sat in a daze, his eyes were not focused, and he didn't know what she was looking at.
After a long time, she suddenly murmured: "Sister Long, when my mother gives birth to my little brother, I will embroider the clothes for you to wear for the New Year, those mothers-in-law are not good at embroidering." ”
Linglong was startled, since the day she went home, Feng didn't know her, either shouting, shouting, killing, scratching and scratching, or just treating her as a subordinate, scolding and scolding.
She no longer expected her mother to know her, at this moment, her fingertips were trembling, but she heard Feng Shi continue: "San Lang, don't hate me, if you want to blame Feng Wanrong, it's the god who killed me, you blame her." ”
After saying this, Feng began to scream again, and Linglong sighed, her mother still didn't know her after all.
