(377), Gentile tribute food
~
Menzi walked to Mo Ye and stood three steps in front of him, bowed, and then said: "Miss Mo, when my lord left the house just now, let the little one bring you a word, he has repaired the book, and this will be taken by the little one to your friend in Kyoto, if my master can't come back in the afternoon, your friend will come to pick you up in the future, please be prepared at that time." ”
Mo Ye had already been mentally prepared for the date of returning to Dongfeng Tower, but listening to this Ding Yiyu, she was a little moved by Ye Zhengming's meticulous actions, when he was in a hurry to do his own things, he could still clearly remember the things entrusted by others in his heart, maybe this was also a necessary thing for him to become a famous doctor.
"I'm sorry for you." Mo Ye smiled and nodded at Namenzi, watching him bow down and say goodbye.
What the man said to Mo Ye, of course, the other two girls present also heard it. mentioned that Mo Ye was leaving, I don't know what Ye Nuonuo thought, but he didn't come over to urge her to help copy the notebook like before.
And because of that man's words, Xiao Yu remembered once again that in the past two days after Mo Ye's arrival, the two aunts in the back kitchen had been chatting, so that she also had some doubts.
But when Xiaoyu was about to express her doubts, the three of them were interrupted by the maid Xiaoya who suddenly ran from the front yard to the backyard.
There are no female dependents in the Ye Mansion, Ye Nuonuo is a little older and lives in the women's school, Ye Zhengming himself reports in the Imperial Medical Bureau in the palace, and often spends a whole day there, because this need to serve is somewhat different from other people's homes, so the house only employs two maids.
Among these two, Xiaoyu has served Miss Ye for a long time, and in the past two years, she has often been in a state of 'expatriation', and the girl who often stays in the house is only Xiaoya.
A big house always needs a good and attentive person to take care of it. Xiaoya's background is simple, youthful and lively, although she is a coward known to all the servants of the Ye Mansion. But after serving the master's family for a long time, he gradually took on the right to know and supervise half of the trivial matters in the house.
The startled little girl appeared in front of the big guy, and Ye Nuonuo, as the eldest lady, did not feel strange. In this regard, Xiaoyu's attitude has also followed the eldest lady.
Seeing Xiao Yu trotting over, standing and gasping slightly, among the three of them, Mo Ye felt a little surprised. But she soon saw that the other two of them looked indifferent, and remembered that Ye Nuono seemed to have talked to her about the timid deeds of another girl in the house, so she didn't say anything.
Of course, she didn't show a suspicious posture like the other two daughters.
"Miss, Sister Xiaoyu. Haven't you heard? Xiaoya took a breath and realized that she had ignored someone because of her urgency when she greeted her, and hurriedly bowed to Mo Ye and called out: "Miss Mo." ”
Ye Nono hesitated. A hint of banter suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he said, "I think what you 'heard' must have nothing to do with my father, otherwise you wouldn't have run so slowly." ”
Xiao Yu, who was standing beside her, lowered her eyebrows and smiled when she heard this. It seems that this pair of masters and servants usually joke with another big girl in the house called Xiaoya because of their timidity, and a tacit understanding in choosing fun has been cultivated.
"Uh...... That's true. The little girl looked embarrassed. Of course, it was not difficult for her to hear that the eldest lady was playing with her again.
After a moment of silence, she suddenly sighed, didn't care about Miss Ye's words, just slowly said her intention of running into the backyard: "I heard the chamberlain who came with the sedan chair that came out of the palace said that His Royal Highness the Second Prince fell ill again, and then I heard Brother Zhuzi say." When he heard the chamberlain talking to the master, he mentioned that His Royal Highness the Second Prince seemed to be very sick this time. ”
Hearing the little girl's words mention that the second prince was seriously ill, Ye Nuonuo had already put away his jokes. And a worried look gradually appeared in his eyes: "Brother Hong's body has always been so weak, if he doesn't take care of it, he will fall ill." The group of people in the Imperial Medical Bureau tried to figure out a way every day, but they never came up with a really good way. ”
She let out a long sigh and clasped her hands together. Looking up at the clear and cloudy sky slightly, he said, "If it's really something he did in his last life...... At least in this life. Brother Hong is a good person, may the gods bless him! ”
Maybe in the world, Ye Nuonuo will not be the only person who calls the second prince with such a close title, but she is definitely the one who dares to be the first. This is not only because there is something more in Ye Nuonuo's character that ordinary women don't have, but also because the second prince is the 'inner response' in the palace who supports her and often takes the princess out of the palace to relax, and also gives protective support.
There was a peculiar friendship between the two of them, which was not common and incomprehensible to outsiders.
Compared with Ye Nuonuo's faint sorrow, after Xiaoyu learned the news that the second prince was seriously ill from Xiaoya, her feelings were a little too heavy, and she was both shocked and worried.
After enduring it, she still couldn't hold back her anxious and asked, "Now in this season, if it's not hot or cold, how can His Highness suddenly become seriously ill?" ”
"Well......" Xiaoya didn't know why Xiaoyu suddenly became nervous, and replied in a low voice: "The master also asked the waiter before entering the sedan chair, and I heard him say that it seems that there is a palace maid who has not served well." ”
Ye Nuonuo shook his head slightly and said: "As far as I can see, there will be no useless chamberlain in Huayang Palace, and if there is a problem with many miscellaneous people, isn't there a palace maid waiting for Brother Hong by his side?" If it weren't for the limitations of her background, she would be a character. She is as careful as a hair, and what is more valuable is that she is as loyal as iron. ”
Xiaoya said vaguely: "What I just said only heard some WeChat from Brother Zhuzi, and it can't be said to be conclusive." ”
The main range of activities of Xiaoya's daily life is in the Ye Mansion, and she rarely goes out of the mansion to visit. However, it was precisely because of her narrow-minded vision that she was very curious about the information she heard from the palace, and unexpectedly the things she was curious about had become common in Ye Nuonuo's eyes. So when she came to the eldest lady and was about to inquire about some more news from her, she found that Miss Ye didn't care deeply about this matter at all.
Xiaoya stretched out her index finger and scraped the tip of her chin, and after thinking about it, she said: "A few days ago, when the Spring Enlightenment Festival was approaching, wasn't there a foreign envoy who crossed the sea to visit? He also brought some foreign specialties and contributed them to the emperor. In those days, when the old man returned late, he also told Aunt Wang in the kitchen about it, because the emperor gave him a small portion of the tribute food brought by the envoys, so he asked Aunt Wang to cook. I heard the old man say that the tribute food is made of fish in the sea, and after Aunt Wang cooked it, she smelled the smell in the kitchen, but it was fresh...... It's just that when the tribute food was given, the eldest lady happened to go back to the women's school the day before, and she didn't taste it. ”
"It seems that because of this special product contributed by the foreign envoy, the second prince had a problem after eating it."
As soon as Xiaoya's words were finished, Xiaoyu followed closely and said with some irritation: "It's really careless, these overseas things, when they are cooked for His Royal Highness the Prince, hasn't anyone tried them first?" ”
"How can you say that you are so exaggerated, dare to love him Banggong is poison?" Seeing that Xiao Yuqing's float was quite big, Ye Nuonuo reminded her, "Speaking of tasting, this rule has long been in the palace, maybe the tribute was taken out by the emperor when he arrived in the palace and entertained the envoy by the way." It's just that Brother Hong has to drink a jar of decoction every day, maybe he happened to be rushing! After all, no one knew how many kinds of food he was drinking. ”
"But...... The envoy has been gone for a few days, why didn't the incident happen until today? Xiao Yu finally realized that her reaction was a little bigger, and although she still had doubts, her tone was not as impulsive as just now.
"I understand what you're questioning, but the conflict between medicine and food is not a one-sided problem, and the result of the conflict can be caused by a variety of factors." Ye Nuonuo let go of Heshi's palm, casually played with the small braid hanging on his shoulder, and after thinking about it, he said: "Maybe it's because the time is not well controlled, some medicine and food are not a big problem, but they should be separated for a period of time in the middle, for example, it is okay to eat separately in the morning and evening, but it is not possible to put it on the table." ”
The head of the Ye family is a famous doctor himself, and Xiaoyu, the maid who has served him for several years, is familiar with these basic medicinal and edible knowledge. It was not difficult for her to understand what Ye Nuonuo said, but after listening to this analysis, she did not immediately respond to it, but lowered her head slightly and fell into silence, it seemed that she was still a little relieved.
Seeing Xiao Yu's silence, Ye Nuonuo suddenly had another curiosity and asked, "Xiao Yu, why are you so nervous?" ”
Xiao Yu suddenly raised her head and asked, "Miss, why don't you seem to be worried at all?" ”
"Brother Hong often helps me, how can I not worry about his safety, but when it comes to this, I am so worried that it is useless for this lump to jump out of my mouth! I only believe in my father's medical skills, which can give me the confidence that my brother Hong can get better. After a slight pause, she added: "Besides, there are still those doctors from the Taiyi Bureau, hasn't Grandpa Yan resigned and returned to old age yet?" ”
Xiaoyu's love finally calmed down a little.
At this time, Xiaoya spoke again, and she hesitated for a while before saying, "I heard that Master Yan's family also had an accident, it seems that his family was robbed, right?" The medicine chest that had been around for many years was gone. ”
Ye Nuonuo lost his voice and said, "Who did you hear this from?" ”
"It's all Brother Zhuzi." Xiaoya hurriedly replied: "Just now, when the old man was still preparing the medicine box in the house, the pillar brother who was guarding the gate chatted with the waiter inside. It seemed that the chamberlain was also in a hurry, so he confided some news, saying that Doctor Yan had already gone to the palace, but because his medicine box was stolen, he could only do some maintenance work, so he was in a hurry to summon our master. Although there are several imperial doctors on duty in the Imperial Medical Bureau today, the person who is most familiar with the physical condition of His Royal Highness the Second Prince has to be our master. ”
