Chapter Ninety-Six: Autumn Grass [8]
Saiyun was silent for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Miss Zhu is the daughter of Mr. Zhu Juzhi, an old minister of the former dynasty, what do you think about the current situation?" ”
Zhu Yan leaned against the door curtain and chuckled, "Could it be that today's women also like to talk about political affairs?" ”
“…… I just think that the girl is different from others, and she must have some different opinions. Seyun told the truth, turning his eyes and quietly looking into the distance.
"As long as the situation is stable and people can live and work in peace and contentment, why bother with ......" Zhu Yan choked up, shook his head lightly, and his tone was slightly astringent, "The country, the meat eater, what is its surname, is it really so important?" ”
"The girl is open-minded." Sai Yun smiled, and happened to have already arrived at the street of Bianfu, so he didn't ask anything else, and hurriedly took Zhu Yan straight into the small building behind.
Although it was autumn, Mrs. Bian was sweating profusely in the corridor, and only when she saw that Zhu Yan had arrived, did she loosen her eyebrows slightly.
Zhu Yan stopped Mrs. Bian from asking for warmth, pushed the door and looked for the stairs inside, "I just heard Saiyun talk about the young lady's illness, it is indeed very critical, and it is important to diagnose the disease first." ”
Rushing to the second floor, the house is still smoked with extremely strong sandalwood, looking ethereal, there is still a brazier inside, the bright and extinguishing fire and the intertwined smoke are intertwined, which is the place to recuperate?
"Madam, could it be that the layout of this room is Yuan Gongzi's instructions?" Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows and turned cold.
“…… It's not, the daughter-in-law has always liked incense, and she has been sick and afraid of the cold in the past few days, so she has arranged the house like this, what does the girl think is wrong? Mrs. Bian was slightly stunned, and her daughter-in-law Yuan Yaohua has always liked incense. I heard that it is a habit to play small, but is this not possible?
Zhu Yanyan smacked his face, frowned and shook his head. "Remove all of this first, and let the smell of smoke dissipate a little bit......"
She slowly approached the couch, Yuan Yaohua was awake, although the brazier beside her had just been extinguished and there was still residual warmth, she was still tightly huddled in the quilt, shouting coldly.
"Young lady......" Zhu Yan sat down slowly on the edge of the couch, "Can you ......?"
"Cold ......," she opened her two big eyes. His eye sockets were slightly sunken downward, his dry lips were purple, and he was trembling and babbling. "The smell of blood...... Light the incense, it smells ...... blood! ”
Zhu Yan bit her lip, and Yuan Yaohua's lips were cyanotic, which must be related to the unfavorable bloodline of the heart master. But she seems to be a little confused now. I don't cooperate with my own treatment, and I really don't know what to do......
Slightly hesitant, he took out the handkerchief given by Yuan Rin from his sleeve, waved it far away, and felt that his heart was also pounding - after all, for a patient with heart problems, using this hypnotic hallucinogenic drug at will will cause cardiac arrest.
Seeing that Yuan Yaohua was really quieter, Zhu Yan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, but still didn't dare to diagnose her pulse. So he reached out and checked her at the reception, which should be weak and weak. But it jumped extremely fast, like a galloping horse. The palm of his hand reached down his neck a little, brushed it lightly on his back, and then got up and exited the room.
"Miss Zhu, what is the child's condition?" Mrs. Bian was still in a cold sweat, and wisps of furrows appeared on her well-maintained face.
“…… Although the illness is serious, there is still a way, and it may be able to save the emergency. Zhu Yan gently held the corner of his forehead, in the past, people thought that Chinese medicine was used to treat chronic diseases, and even to fight cancer, but they didn't know that reasonable Chinese medicine also had a first aid method for heart failure like Yuan Yaohua.
Zhu Yan stretched out his hand and gently buckled the railing, and whispered the prescription, "Use the square cinnamon branch to add magnolia apricot soup, three taels of cinnamon branches, two taels of peeled licorice, three taels of boiled ginger, three taels of cut peony, twelve jujubes, two taels of magnolia bark, fifty pieces of burnt and peeled almonds, peel the tip, add seven flavors, take seven liters of water, boil three liters over low heat, and remove the water." Warm one liter, covered with a slight sweat. Don't be careful. ”
This recipe is also what she used to see, using the original recipe of cinnamon and apricot soup, from Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", which remains unchanged.
Sai Yun listened, while quickly writing down, as soon as Zhu Yan finished speaking, Fang Zi handed it to the maid to fetch the medicine and decoction, and the whole process was almost rehearsed.
“…… Zhu Yan will come back tomorrow. Zhu Yan estimated that Yuan Yaohua would be fine for a while, thinking that Mingzi was still in the pharmacy and was in a hurry to leave.
Mrs. Bian also knew that she had something to do, and thought that it would be as fast as she could invite her, so she still asked Saiyun to send her to the pharmacy.
As soon as I stepped into the back hall of the pharmacy, I heard the voice of a slightly immature young man reading a book with a clear eye, and when he stepped into the threshold, four or five men on the ground were holding thin knives, medicine pestles, planers and other things in their hands, and they were seriously making medicines, and a water-sealed steamer was still steaming hot.
Zhu Yan looked at Mingzi approvingly, he didn't expect that this kid was a big ghost, so he organized these guys to start working after a while.
Bian Feng followed aside, and praised in a low voice, "The little brother of the girl is really amazing, and he can convince the guys in the store in a few words, no, they all start to work." ”
"Akiko is indeed very capable." Zhu Yan smiled and looked at Akiko approvingly.
"Ahem......" Bian Feng lowered his voice more and more, and pulled Zhu Yan to the side into the corner, "There is a reluctant request below." ”
"Oh? Say, please. Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows.
Bian Feng scratched his head embarrassedly, "I happen to be short of manpower in this store, little brother Mingzi is really good, I don't know if he is willing to help in my pharmacy for a while...... By the way, the wages will be preferential! ”
"The matter of Hengzhi only medicine can not be finished in a day or two, Mingzi is still young, if he can get a mention from Boss Bian, Zhu Yan can rest assured." Zhu Yan responded, his shop was taken care of by Liu Zixin, and Mingzi followed Bian Feng to learn business, which was beneficial and harmless.
At night, he told Mingzi about this plan, and explained the benefits and disadvantages, and he also agreed.
Early the next morning, Saiyun rushed to inform Yuan Yaohua that he had relieved a lot after taking the medicine, and the letter from Yuan Rin and his teacher had also arrived, and he was using the above methods to regulate his body, and there must be no further deterioration for the time being.
Zhu Yan breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard that the recipe worked, although he wanted to understand the root cause of Yuan Yaohua's illness, but as soon as the autumn festival passed and the New Year was approaching, there was an endless stream of people who came to settle the land rent these days, and the shop had to settle the bill again. Many large families also ordered a lot of exquisite medicines from her, ready to be given to relatives as novel New Year's gifts.
In the past few days, she has been so busy that even Granny Liu is helping to receive guests, and Zhu Yan can't get out. explained the reason, and did not go to Bien Fu for the time being.
Seeing that it was about to be the Laba Festival, Zhu Yan sorted out these things, and took advantage of the sunny weather one day to bring some gifts to Bienfu.
Mrs. Bian saw that Zhu Yan was always enthusiastic, and while talking in her ear earnestly about the miracle of Yuan Yaohua's improvement after taking medicine that day, she talked to her about Bian Yun after a while. No longer the frailty of the past.
Zhu Yan just listened quietly and gave a smile from time to time.
When I arrived in Yuan Yaohua's house, the air inside was a little fresher. But the faint scent of sandalwood still permeated it, making Zhu Yan's brows frown slightly.
Yuan Yaohua's spirit was much clearer, and when she saw Zhu Yan, she greeted her, "Miss Zhu." Please come here. ”
Zhu Yan had already been in contact with her twice before. You're not welcome, so he stepped forward, sat down in the chair next to the couch, and carefully examined her complexion.
Although Yuan Yaohua's cheeks were still thin and sunken, his lips had added blood, no longer terrifying cyanosis, and his eyes were slightly bright, but Zhu Yan looked at it carefully. I always felt a hint of horror in her two gentle eyes.
"Madame...... Can Zhu Yan ask you some questions? Zhu Yan leaned forward slightly, and his voice was gentle. Try to create an atmosphere that she can be trusted.
Yuan Yaohua was in a good mood and nodded slowly.
"Why do you burn sandalwood in the house?" Zhu Yan vaguely remembered that she said that day that there was a smell of blood, and it seemed that it was because of this that she asked to light sandalwood to cover the frightening smell, but how could there be a smell of blood in such a wooden pavilion?
Yuan Yaohua really shrank, her eyes were full of horror, she subconsciously shrank into the quilt, and looked at Zhu Yan vigilantly for a long time before she said in a very low voice: "...... Blood, a lot of blood...... So cover the smell of blood with sandalwood......"
Zhu Yan frowned, she looked like this...... Her heart is already weak, and her heart is a god, so could she be a slight proof of madness? But I didn't know much about these spiritual issues, so I didn't dare to make arbitrary conclusions, so I had to continue to ask, "Where is the blood?" ”
“…… ...... on the grass" Yuan Yaohua closed her eyes, a pair of skinny hands tightly grasped the brocade quilt, her eyebrows frowned, as if she was trying to recall, "Dead man...... There is an earthy smell and a smell of blood...... It's horrible......"
"Where is the meadow?" Zhu Yan softened his voice as much as possible, and at this time, he was a little annoyed that he hadn't learned the art of hypnosis.
Fortunately, Yuan Yaohua was very weak in heart, and he was also quite successful in the "hypnotism" of a layman like Zhu Yan, and he whispered very cooperatively, "It's very beautiful here...... You see, there is a dragon in the corner of the eaves......"
"Those...... Dead person...... What is it like? Zhu Yan saw that she was quite steady, and cautiously continued to inquire.
"Blood...... There was blood on his clothes...... They were wearing ...... ......"Yuan Yaohua bit her lip tightly, and cold sweat trickled down her forehead.
Zhu Yan was slightly shocked, and the palace costume was ...... Eaves carved with dragon patterns...... Could it be in the palace?
While wiping the cold sweat from the corners of her forehead for Yuan Yaohua, she woke her up softly.
Yuan Yaohua slowly opened her eyes, perhaps because she said the fear that had accumulated in her heart for many years, her eyes became a lot clearer, she tried her best to hold Zhu Yan's hand, looked at her carefully, and smiled softly: "Mother told me that Xuanqing likes you very much...... I like you too...... You have to treat him well......"
"Good ......" Zhu Yan looked at her expectant smile, and couldn't bear to refuse, so she still responded softly.
Seeing that Yuan Yaohua seemed to be short of spirits, Zhu Yan called in a maid to serve her to sleep, walked slowly to the porch, and poured dry and cold air fiercely. (To be continued......)
