Chapter 7: Slave Training
"Are all the people dead? Squeak a living man! "It's an old man's snarky voice.
Mu Jinrou was startled, hurriedly put on her clothes with the help of Xue Zhu, her head was dizzy again, and she said angrily: "Who is this?" How can there be a foreign man in the place where the female dependents in the backyard live? Still an old immortal! ”
Xue Zhu was taken aback by Mu Jinrou's tone, although she was also angry, she still couldn't help but say, "Miss, you can't talk like this." That was Dr. Hu who was offered in the house, and he used to be the imperial doctor in the palace. After retiring, I don't know how many rich and noble people will invite it. ”
Mu Jinrou took a long breath and nodded in response. She had to always remember that this was ancient, but she didn't want to be seen as wrong, she didn't want to be burned as a monster.
Xue Zhu smiled at her and helped her lie down again, and by the way, put down the bed net that had been patched a lot, leaving only one of her hands exposed.
Hiding in the bed tent that was not very breathable, Mu Jinrou sighed softly, she is a poor person in a rich family.
Dr. Hu was respectfully invited into the house by Mama Li, Zizhu brought him a cushioned embroidery pier, Xuezhu held a cup of hot tea, and the three of them stood respectfully aside.
Through the small hole in the bed tent, Mu Jinrou saw the appearance of this Dr. Hu, who really looked like an old fox. It's not that he's cunning, that face looks like a fox.
The face of the sharp-beaked monkey has no flesh, and a pair of shrewd little eyes float around from time to time, especially the few sparse beards, which grow to both sides like Zhang Fei, but one hand is still twisting and turning complacently.
This dignity made Mu Jinrou want to withdraw her hand, is it really okay to let such a person see a doctor? Is this a doctor?
It's not that she judges people by their appearance, it's really this person who really makes Mu Jinrou sick to her stomach. It is said that each other is born from the heart, and this person's heart must be black!
After enjoying the respect of the people in the house, Dr. Hu waved his hand and said, "Ready." ”
The boy beside him hurriedly took down the large medicine box on his back, took out a blue and white porcelain vein pillow and handed it to Xue Zhu first. Then he took out the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and put it away, grinding the ink without saying a word.
Xue Zhu also put the pulse pillow on Mu Jinrou's wrist with ease, and straightened her moving hand properly, and said with a smile: "Doctor Hu, please!" ”
"Ahem!" Doctor Hu had enough of the master's score, and then he stretched out his hand to take the pulse.
Mu Jinrou stubbornly asked the fox doctor to finish his pulse, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Doctor Hu picked up the pen and began to write the recipe, and said as he wrote: "It's still the same, the recipe was very good before, and the eldest lady has to ask the old man to come and see it." The old man has to add another medicine to ensure that the medicine is cured! ”
Mama Li was busy thanking her and pinched a small purse in her hand.
After opening the prescription, Dr. Hu put the pen down, dried the ink, looked at the purse in Mama Li's hand, and sneered: "Save it, the old man is so shallow-eyed?" If it weren't for the eldest lady's orders, the old man really didn't want to set foot in this desolate place. ”
"Grab the medicine, fry it as before." threw the recipe to Mama Li and went out, and the boy who hurriedly packed up the medicine box followed after Mama Li and the others arched slightly.
Mama Li pinched her purse and pursed her lips without saying a word, and the faces of the two bamboos were also very ugly, and their young lady was looked down upon.
Suddenly I didn't know that Mu Jinrou had already gotten up and read the recipe, this person's handwriting was really sloppy, but fortunately, Mu Jinrou had studied cursive for a long time in order to treat her mother's illness.
"Momo?" Mu Jinrou frowned and said, "Can I use this for this disease, does Grandma know what this thing is curing?" I'm only twelve! ”
"Ahh Miss, why are you down, get on the bed. Mama Li dragged her to the bed, touching her head from time to time, "It's still hot." ”
Mu Jinrou obediently lay down and said, "Mama, keep this recipe first." Anyway, it's not the first time I've had this disease, so let's use my home remedies, and I won't take this medicine if I can. ”
Mama Li still doesn't believe in the home remedies given by Mu Jinrou, she is only a twelve-year-old child, how can she see a doctor? Maybe I heard it from somewhere, but I remembered it.
Mu Jinrou knew that she didn't believe it when she looked at her, but she really couldn't take this medicine, the biggest effect of peach kernels was to moisten and invigorate blood, and treat amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea.
God is pitiful, my small body has become like this, and I am seriously malnourished, and the monthly letter must not have come. Coupled with the previous senna, is the fox doctor trying to pull himself to death? It's better to just open croton to her.
"Mama listens to me. If my grandmother went to grab the medicine and boil the medicine without permission, I wouldn't drink it. ”
Mama Li was puzzled: "Miss, how can you get better if you don't drink medicine?" ”
Mu Jinrou's face sank, "Didn't I give you a prescription?" Follow this. If Mama doesn't want to do it, Xuezhu, you can do it. Since Mama doesn't have a monthly routine with me, I won't hinder the future of you and Zizhu, so I'll give you the deed of sale, so let's go. ”
With that, she closed her eyes and ignored them.
Mama Li and Zizhu hurriedly knelt down, "Miss, the slave knows that she is wrong. Please Miss don't drive the slave maid away, our mother can live until now thanks to Mrs. Niang's rescue, we can't be ungrateful. Miss is whatever she says, please take back what she just said. ”
"Miss, don't be angry, leave Mama Li and Zizhu, you can't do anything without them." Xuezhu also knelt down to intercede for them.
Mu Jinrou still closed her eyes and didn't look at them, endured the discomfort on her body and said: "I dreamed of my mother last night, and she told me that I should study according to the medical books she left and not follow in her footsteps. She said that this medical book was collected after her illness, and that she should not be made to trust any of the doctors who were invited by others, who knew if the prescriptions prescribed by these doctors were poisonous. ”
As she spoke, her tears rolled down, but she remembered her mother in her previous life, and said, "Since Mama Li doesn't believe it, what's the use of me keeping you?" Maybe your kindness will turn out to be the one who harmed me! The slave who didn't listen to me, my mother said she couldn't stay with me. ”
It's not that Mu Jinrou is ruthless, just think about his own situation, if he doesn't make a heavy punch, he really has to follow in the footsteps of his original body. Those who stay by your side must be loyal.
She knew that the original body believed in the three slaves, but she didn't believe it, as she said, good people can do wrong things, and many bad people use this to achieve their goals.
Mama Li kowtowed to Zizhu and said, "The slave understands, please punish the young lady." Miss can punish the slaves and maids as much as she wants, just ask Miss not to drive us away. ”
Mu Jinrou opened her eyes and turned her head and said, "Okay, look at your future performance." I'm sure you know very well what kind of life I'm living in this house, and I will never follow in my mother's footsteps! Get up. I'm not seriously ill, and I can't die without taking medicine for a few days, so it's better to try my prescription, and if it doesn't work, I'll talk about it. ”
Mama Li wiped the tears on her face and said, "Yes, don't worry, Miss, the slave will definitely listen to Miss in the future." The young lady had been taught by her lady in her dream that the days to come would be better and better. ”
As he spoke, he poured the bowl of boiled medicine into the courtyard.
