That night, Xu Suzhen still didn't come back, Zhu Yan was used to her being away from home for three days, and she didn't care if she wanted to go to Xu's Mansion again.

At night, there was a fire in the backyard, and Zhu Yan took a special look at the injured person to make sure that he would not get cold at night, and then folded into the brightly lit house.

A large pile of water pills had already been sifted, and Yuan Rin leaned over slightly to look at a white pill in his hand with a little flickering light, very distracted.

"Xuanqing, isn't this already good?" Zhu Yan sat down beside him at a distance, looking at his serious expression.

"Have you seen the man?" Yuan Rin put down the water pill in his hand, and the round ball turned endlessly in a small porcelain bowl.

Zhu Yan leaned closer, "The fever has subsided, that person looks very strong, and he must not have to worry about his life." ”

"This kind of injury is nothing to some people." Yuan Rin pursed his lips, as if he wanted to continue, but smiled, diverted the conversation again, and handed a water pill to Zhu Yan, "The taste of this pill is not good enough, but you need to add some clothes hanger?" ”

"Clothes hanger ......?" Zhu Yan rubbed his forehead in distress, hesitated for a moment, and decided to ask shamelessly, "What is the clothes hanger?" ”

Yuan Rin obviously didn't expect her to ask like this, and was stunned for a moment before chuckling, "I didn't think you also knew something." ”

Zhu Yan flattened his mouth, turned his head sideways and muttered softly, "I haven't learned this, the medicines sold on weekdays are just some to escape the heat and eliminate food, how can there be so much attention." ”

Under the shadow of the lamp, her cheeks flushed. Half annoyed, half shy.

"You're not bad, ordinary pills don't have to worry about hanging clothes." Yuan Rin stopped teasing her. Moved closer, "Hanging clothes are also coatings, which are also part of the recipe, cinnabar, licorice, cork, and realgar are the most common, you should have heard of plum blossom tongue pills?" That is the cinnabar coat, and the others, there are also indigo, herb cream, talc, limestone, red yeast rice, oysters, gold leaf, silver leaf...... I don't use it much. ”

said. Yuan Rin suddenly remembered another thing, and looked at the woman who could listen attentively and smiled, "Ah Yan." I haven't asked you yet, where did you hear about the recipe for the Stone Rolling Phlegm Pill? ”

"Huh?" Zhu Yan came back to his senses, looked at him and blinked, and quickly went over the reasons that he could make up in his heart. I don't think it's very reliable. He pulled up a smile and asked, "I can't remember for a while, so where did you hear that?" ”

"Can't remember? I can't remember such a peculiar recipe. Yuan Rin obviously didn't believe it, and looked at her with some meaning, "The current Queen Mother has some symptoms of panic and madness, and the master entered this pill back then. He cured her illness and found a foothold in Beijing. ”

“…… Such. Zhu Yan felt very uncomfortable being stared at by his burning gaze. Subconsciously moved back a little.

A gust of wind passed by outside the window, and the flower branches and bamboo leaves outside fell on the window lattice one after another, splashing softly.

Yuan Rin looked up, his face was slightly gloomy, and then he pushed over a cup of tea, "I'm afraid it will take some effort tonight, let's drink a cup of tea to refresh myself, but don't doze off and be lazy for a while." ”

"No, it won't." Zhu Yan glared at him, and when he saw that he no longer asked about Fang Cai's affairs, he was very relieved, and hurriedly took the cup and drank it all.

Yuan Rin also opened a small box from nowhere, and there was a thick layer of red powder inside, I don't know what it was.

"That lady has a weak spleen, and many medicines can't stand it, I think this red yeast rice is very good, it was originally into the spleen meridian." Yuan Rin said, while using a small silver spoon to pour the big red powder into the small bowl of celadon little by little, took a little water and adjusted it, and made a red bowl, which shone with a moist red light under the shadow of the lamp.

Zhu Yan agreed very much this time, but only praised him for his cleverness, this red yeast rice is actually the fungus purple Monascus parasitic on japonica rice, in the words of ancient medical books, it is called blood circulation and blood stasis, spleen and digestion, as far as the original most popular saying goes, this thing contains fungi, which can clear fat and lower blood sugar, and it is indeed related to weight loss.

Red yeast rice is complicated to do, it is claimed that it is necessary to use white japonica rice to divide into fifteen places, after entering the mother of koji, it is still made in one place, it is tightly covered with cloth and silk, and then the silk piece is uncovered when it is hot, and so on several times, and the next day, it is divided into three piles for a while, and then divided into five piles for a while, and then it is divided into fifteen piles after a while.

On the third day, I finally used a bamboo basket to hold the fermented koji rice, dipped it in a large bucket of purified water several times, and then staged a repertoire of division and combination, and then dipped it again after the day, and then divided and combined again. This is repeated several times until all the rice floats on the water, and then it can be considered to be made, and the koji rice can be collected and dried for later use, and the original crystal white color will become bright red and lovely.

In a word, this red yeast rice is no simpler than that ferul paste.

Zhu Yan thought, and at some point, he was already lying on the table, his chin resting on his hand, and he watched Yuan Rin handle those pills for a moment.

"Tired?" Yuan Rin rolled his eyes, looked at the pretty face in front of him with a smile, stretched out his clean hand and stroked her forehead, and comforted her softly, "If you are tired, just sleep for a while, I will deal with these enough." ”

"It's not good ......" Zhu Yan raised his eyes to look at him, blinked hard, and wanted to say something, but he couldn't remember what to say, his eyelids were very heavy, and he muttered a few vague words softly, and still fell asleep.

Yuan Rin stood up gently, took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, took a cloak to the side and put it on her, and then slowly lifted the curtain and went to the porch.

Not long after fifteen, the moon was missing only a corner, and the bright moonlight was very bright in such a dry and cold night, and under this white light, there was still a white dress, which was naturally even more eye-catching.

“…… How to give her tea water medicine? "There is no one to come, and there is a hint of anger in the low voice.

"It's just calming, she's already tired, otherwise she wouldn't have fallen asleep so easily." Yuan Rin walked a few steps towards the courtyard, stopped under the ginkgo tree in the courtyard, leaning against the railing with his back to the moonlight, this place was far away from the house, but he could just see the situation there.

Yong Wuyi walked over, barely making a sound, "Why did you take that person?" ”

Yuan Rin picked up an apricot leaf that fell on the railing, and raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it your Xiang clan's people?" Why not save? ”

"What do you mean by 'We're Xiang'?" Yongwu shook his head dissatisfied, "I have nothing to do with them. ”

"'The flowing water is ruthless, and the falling flowers are intentional', you want to have nothing to do with them, but they are trying their best to have a relationship with you......" Yuan Rin smiled lightly, "That painting was also stolen by the Xiang clan and handed over to Dou Pingyuan?" ”

Never nodded, tapping lightly on the railing, "I think so." ”

"And what about you? In a few months, when all the affairs here are dealt with, I will take Ah Yan back to Beijing, although her father has passed away, the marriage letter written by herself is still there, this Mrs. Zhu is not Ah Yan's biological mother, she really shouldn't care about it. Yuan Rin brushed away the apricot leaves, got up and was about to leave, and suddenly smiled lowly, "You were also outside the corridor that night?" What does it mean to come here again and again? ”

Thinking of what he saw outside the corridor that night, he couldn't help but clench his fists, "...... Deliberately? ”

"However, she didn't push me away, it was willing." Yuan Rin smiled a little, walked a few steps, and was about to enter the corridor, when he suddenly turned around, "That person really wasn't sent by you?" ”

"No, I'm not the same as those who are full of revenge." Yong Wu raised his eyebrows, "I said earlier that you shouldn't save this person, they must have used some method to stumble Ah Yan's eyes so that they could do something." ”

"What ...... do?" Yuan Rin knocked on one side of his arm, and shook his head with a smile indifferently, "I think that Mrs. Dou, who drank vinegar, knew what was the secret, and most likely wanted to kill her, but how could Ah Yan care about that, but hurt his own people like that to come to a bitter plan, it is really a golden pill to beat the bird, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Never silent, he is indeed a member of the Xiang family, or the most authentic lineage, when the Xiang Concubine was punished, his parents happened to be in Lingnan, the news came, and he hurriedly abandoned the official and hid, so he escaped, and then some of the collateral lines that escaped from the Xiang clan were found, and they also settled down in Lingnan, they could have lived a good life in seclusion, and they didn't want those people to kill too much, and they always had to avenge the revenge of the past years to be satisfied, and now although the old dynasty is dead, but the monarch of the dead country is still there, so their goal is to assassinate the king of Fushun - It's boring.

Yongwu has always been reluctant to socialize with them, and his deceased father also means this, not only giving him a single name, but also adding another word is Yongwu, what a resolute decision. After the death of his parents, he left Lingnan and lived the life of the ranger prodigal son, which was also at ease, until he met Dou Sui in this small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was detained for a few months.

Dou Sui didn't reveal much to him, Yong Wu just faintly felt that Dou Sui seemed to have some purpose, and I don't know how he got involved with his confused family...... But what Yuan Rin said, he felt a little hasty, he inquired, it was not easy for Dou Sui to escape from the search and arrest, in order to cover up his identity, he married a genuine peasant woman, and this woman's parents were both dead, and there were no other relatives, such a person said that he died violently, and it was easy to hide it, and there was no need for such a bitter plan.

But what else can they do?

Yong Wu stood outside the corridor for a while, looking down at the little light shadow inside, sighing, guessing that Yuan Rin was going to pass over like this lonely man and widow tonight, it was really a little itchy. (To be continued......)
