Chapter 207: Medicine Ink

For the trivial matter just now, the two of them didn't care about it after solving it, Su Li secretly thought to herself, she didn't delay any time just now, and according to the speed of Abba and Grandma, she went back to eat. If the third brother is not in a hurry to leave in the afternoon, he can just drink two glasses of health medicine wine with Abba at noon, and she will go back in a while to ask for a bottle of aged wine. The number of batches of medicinal wine she configured, the health medicinal wine prepared by the third brother at the bottom of the boutique Moutai sent over at one time tasted the best, the number of that batch of Moutai was limited, sent to the east, sent to the west, and there were only a few bottles in her hand reserved for Abba!

At noon, the Su family and the couple prepared a sumptuous and abnormal, this is the reception banquet for the rigorous family to buy, yesterday's temporary dinner, in the eyes of the Su family and the couple, I feel very sorry for the children who came all the way.

After a short rest after the meal, the Su family began to arrange the process of the afternoon. Lin Juan went to the kitchen and noodles, ready to ferment and start steaming steamed buns in person tomorrow, her cooking skills have always been very good, and the steamed buns she made are more fragrant, soft and chewy than those sold outside, and have always been praised by the father and daughter of the Su family. Therefore, the Su family has never been in the habit of going out to sell steamed buns. Twenty-eight handfuls of noodles and twenty-nine steamed steamed buns, this is also an old habit of the Su family.

In the afternoon, in Su Zhiyuan's plan, it was to be used to write couplets. Steaming steamed buns for the New Year is a big project, because you want to steam out steamed buns for about half a month at one time, the rules of the hometown, you can't steam steamed buns immediately after the New Year, and you can't continue to steam steamed buns until the Lantern Festival or so New Year has passed, and you can continue to steam steamed buns and resume normal eating habits. Although the pace of life is fast now, people's living standards are better, and they love to eat fresh. You don't need to make so many steamed buns. It's just that the Su family is a traditional person, no matter what. It is still necessary to steam a few pots of steamed buns, at least until the fifth day of the new year.

Lin Juan's steamed steamed bread routine is to knead the dough into a round steamed bread mold by hand, so that there are more steamed steamed buns at one time, and the workload will naturally be larger. Therefore, at this time of the twenty-ninth year of the New Year every year, Su Zhiyuan always feels sorry for his wife. Personally help knead the dough and knead the steamed bread mold. Maybe the other procedures of steaming steamed buns, Su Zhiyuan may not be in place, but. When it comes to kneading steamed buns, he is a must. The man's hands are strong, and the steamed buns kneaded by him taste more flexible and chewy. The Su family steamed steamed buns on weekdays, and Su Zhiyuan only had time. will personally help. This is how this trick is practiced. His skills can be said to be the first in the Su family, and even Lin Juan, who has the best cooking skills, can't compare.

Therefore, since then, the couplet to be posted on the door early in the morning of the 30th morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve has been arranged by Su Zhiyuan to be written on the 28th day of the New Year. At home time, this time of year. There are also many people in the village who love tradition or have a nervous family background to ask Su Zhiyuan to help write some Spring Festival couplets with red paper, and Su Zhiyuan's Spring Festival couplets have been honed in such a year. He can write at least 100 Spring Festival couplets that are not the same!

This is also the reason why the people in the village are obviously not only Su Zhiyuan who can write calligraphy, but most people love to find him to write Spring Festival couplets.

Abba likes it, there will be a long and long time in the future for so many years to write Spring Festival couplets for their family, and then there will be no hurt hands like in the previous life, and they will no longer be able to pick up a brush and write happily! Thinking of this, Su Li couldn't help but smile softly and nostalgically, with a slightly complicated and inexplicable look of relief in her eyes, which made Yan Yan couldn't help but pause his hand and look at Su Li with a slight frown: "Ah Li? ”

"It's okay, third brother, I just remember, we were still in our hometown village for those years, whenever this time, our family is always the most lively, and there are many uncles and aunts in the village who will bring cut red paper to ask Abba to write Spring Festival couplets. This year, we decided to spend the New Year in Jincheng and not go back to our hometown, Abba has a lot less work and a lot less fun! Shaking his head, Su Li paused and sighed nostalgically for the action of visiting the red paper in his hand, being able to help the people in the village has always been something Abba is willing to do.

"Oh? Then I'm going to appreciate my uncle's mastery! Although it can be seen that Su Li may still have some hidden deeper content that is not as simple as she said now, but she did not delve into it rigorously, and changed the topic with Su Li's words. He didn't think that Ah Li was not honest enough, but sighed that he still hadn't done enough, that he couldn't go into the deepest part of Ah Li's heart and become her omnipotent reliance, that the revolution had not yet succeeded, and that comrades still needed to work hard, which was the situation he clearly understood at present.

"What's the trick?" After cleaning his hands from the outside, Su Zhiyuan, who turned into the study, picked up the rigorous words with a smile, and asked curiously about the prelude he hadn't heard before. "Hey, Ah Jin, you've also practiced big characters! This ink is so well polished, it's not thick or light, it's just right! ”

"Ah Li said, writing Spring Festival couplets is my uncle's specialty, I have to appreciate it!" Rigorous and modest replied: "When I was a child, I practiced two big characters with my grandfather, and I studied ink for my grandfather. "When he looks back, he also wants to buy some, grandpa's evaluation of his life, Confucianism is a classic throughout, he likes to practice calligraphy, and he also likes pen and ink. This habit and preference also affected him who was raised by his grandfather since he was a child.

The use of medicine into ink began in the Three Kingdoms period in the 5,000-year history of China, when Wei Dan, an ink-making expert, "participated in pearls, musk pounded fine powder under the smoke under the iron mortar, pounded ten thousand pestles", the first precious drugs into the ink.

In the Southern Tang Dynasty, the ink-making process has been greatly developed, and the medicinal ink has also risen, and there are precious Chinese medicines such as garcinia cambogia, borneol, rhino horn, croton and so on added in the ink, so that the ink is "fragrant and fragrant" and "its firm as a defense", and for a time the official eunuchs and literati doctors competed for use. Even the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties developed to the peak, and it was widely popular among the people. And Yaomo has indeed cured many people's diseases.

As one of the four treasures of the study, medicinal ink is not moth-eaten and conducive to storage. As a medicinal use, it is widely used to treat diseases, anti-inflammatory and detoxifying, hemostasis and pain relief, blood pressure lowering, anticonvulsant and antispasmodic, and is favored by patients and people who read and learn words.
