Chapter 38: Half a Bun
Zuo Shaoyang was even more strange: "Aren't you saying that these are all decoctions to solve the table?" How did it become a pill powder? ”
"I don't know about this, anyway, it's sold by Huimin Tang, it's very good, you can eat it when you buy it, it works when you eat it, it's very convenient." So I have a lot of things at home, and if I have a headache and brain fever, I take medicine by myself, and I don't have to leave my job to go to the pharmacy to see a doctor and feel my pulse, and I don't have to work hard to boil medicine. ”
Zuo Shaoyang smiled bitterly and said, "Auntie, I now understand why you are always sick with a cold." ”
"Really? What's wrong with me? ”
"You're just eating the anti-table medicine!"
"What do you mean?" The woman asked blankly.
"This external disease, there are wind-heat external senses and wind-cold external senses, the medication is also different, there is a difference between the Xinwen solution table and the Xinliang solution, if it is an external wind cold, then use the Xinwen anti-surface medicine, if it is the wind-heat external sense, to use the Xinliang anti-surface medicine. This has to be treated differentially, and it cannot be used indiscriminately. Otherwise, it was originally an external wind and heat, but you used the Xinwen antidote, then you will have a dry mouth, you have an external wind cold, but you use the medicine of the Xinliang antidote, then you will close the lungs, you may not feel anything, or you may feel that it is good to take medicine indiscriminately, but your body's righteousness has been secretly damaged because of this, once or twice, three times or four times such a long-term indiscriminate medication, you will show yang deficiency, lung qi is not declared, the depression is heavier, the righteousness is greatly damaged, the ability to resist external evil is greatly weakened, and the external evil is easy to invade the hand. Naturally, you get sick easily. ”
The woman wondered, "I also eat according to what the pharmacy says the medicine is for." ”
"The so-called 'medicine is not autonomous', even Lang Zhong, who practices medicine, does not give himself a medical treatment, and you are not a medical student, how can you know what is wrong with you? External infection is actually very complicated, all kinds of symptoms are not the same, not simply external wind heat and wind cold, such two kinds, subdivision is more, like what external wind cold surface deficiency, external wind cold dampness, and internal heat, external cold and internal drinking, lung heat cough, wind cold depression and heat, etc., must be specially Lang Zhong Wang, after hearing and asking, syndrome differentiation can determine what is wrong, and then can prescribe the right medicine. You are afraid of trouble, and you just rely on your own experience to find over-the-counter medicines, which are not allowed in many cases, and as a result, you will cause damage to your body and weaken your resistance to external evils. It's strange not to get sick. ”
The woman understood a little, and said anxiously, "In this case, what should I do?" ”
"Don't worry, my father will prescribe medicine for you, slowly recuperate for a period of time, don't take medicine indiscriminately in the future, if you are sick, you should go to the pharmacy to find Lang Zhong, after a period of conditioning and healing, your body will be strong again."
"Oh, I see, thank you so much!"
Zuo Gui glanced at Zuo Shaoyang, picked up a pen and wrote the prescription, Zuo Shaoyang saw that the prescription was very symptomatic, and he was busy taking the medicine according to the prescription, wrapping it and giving it to the woman. The woman paid seven pennies for the consultation, took the medicine and left.
Zuo Gui turned sideways again, looked Zuo Shaoyang up and down, smiled and nodded: "Well, you explained to the patient very clearly just now, and it is also very good, but these things are not in the medical book I gave you, where did you know about them?" ”
"Well...... I was taught by the old bell doctor who told my dad last time."
"Oh." Zuo Gui stroked his gray beard and smiled, "Last time you said that he only let you read a medical book for one day, it is rare that you can learn such things in such a short time." It seems that you are still studying very hard, and before your father scolded you for not working hard, it was wrong to blame you. ”
Zuo Shaoyang laughed twice and asked, "Dad, are you hungry?" Shall I go home and bring you food? ”
"Well, go ahead."
Zuo Shaoyang glanced at the firewood girl from a distance, and saw that she was standing by the firewood with her sleeves caged, and she was also secretly looking at herself, and when she saw herself looking at her, she hurriedly avoided her eyes again.
Zuo Shaoyang smiled, carried the small half bag of pine cones, and trotted briskly through the streets and alleys back to Guizhi Hall. Liang had already prepared lunch, four hard steamed buns with black noodles and white skin, two bowls of green vegetable and leaf soup, packed in a food box made of bamboo, and two pairs of chopsticks.
Zuo Shaoyang poured the pine cones on the ground of the medicinal herb warehouse, stuffed the empty bag into his arms, and said to Liang: "Mother, can you give two more steamed buns?" ”
"What for?"
"I'm hungry, I see my father is also very hungry, take two more, and get them back when you can't finish eating."
Liang glanced at his son lovingly, and saw that his face was pale from the cold, and the bridge of his nose was red from the cold, so he reached over to help him rub it, and took two steamed buns from the pot and put them in the bamboo basket food box, wrapped them tightly with a blue cloth on the outside, and handed them to Zuo Shaoyang.
Zuo Shaoyang happily carried the food box and ran back to Washi quickly. This time he came in from the other side, and first went to Miao Peilan, a firewood girl, handed her Miao Peilan's bag, and said, "Oh, give you the bag." - By the way, I brought you two steamed buns, hot, eat them while they are hot, warm! He took out the bun and handed it over.
Miao Peilan took the bag, glanced at the steamed bun, shook her head with a red face, took out a small package of white handkerchief from her arms, unfolded it, and it was also a hard bun, and a small half of it had been bitten. The steamed bun is also made of black flour and mulberry white skin, but there are more mulberry white skins, it seems that this combination makes steamed buns, and the people in this area know that it is also the staple food in the case of food shortage.
Zuo Shaoyang reached out and touched the half of the bun in her handkerchief, and said, "Ouch, it's as hard as a stone, how can you eat this, eat mine!" Fast! Otherwise, it won't taste good if it's cold. ”
Miao Peilan still shook her head, picked up the hard bun and took a bite, chewing it very hard.
Zuo Shaoyang was anxious, snatched the hard steamed bun in her hand, stuffed the two steaming steamed buns in her hand into her hand, and said with a smile: "You gave me a little squirrel, I will give you two steamed buns, no one owes anyone, right?" Eat! Anyway, without waiting for her to react, he ran away with the food box.
Miao Peilan caught up with two steps, stood again, looked down at the two steamed buns in her hand, picked them up, took a bite gently, it was hot, her whole body was warm, holding the hot black steamed buns, looking at Zuo Shaoyang's back, her eyes were a little moist.
Zuo Shaoyang ran to his father's stall, no one saw a doctor, and put the food box on the table: "Dad! Time to eat! ”
Zuo Gui saw that he was holding half a hard steamed bun in his hand, and the appearance and the things inside did not look like his own steamed bun, and said strangely: "Where did it come from?" ”
Of course, Zuo Shaoyang couldn't say that it was Miao Peilan's, so he lied casually: "It was given to the uncle of the grocery store on the side, it was not delicious, and it was not as good as ours, so I took a bite and didn't finish it." ”
Zuo Gui glared and said, "People are kind to you, but you are still picking fat and thin?" Hurry up and eat! ”
Zuo Shaoyang sighed, brought the half of the steamed bun to his mouth, and then smelled the familiar fragrance of spring tender grass again, and couldn't help but look back, and saw that Miao Peilan was also looking at him, and saw that he was going to eat the half of the steamed bun he had left, and immediately blushed, and hurriedly turned his head.
"Still not eating? What are you waiting for? Zuo Gui looked up at him.
Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly withdrew his gaze, smiled secretly in his heart, hurriedly stuffed the bun into his mouth, and bit it hard, his teeth almost collapsed, and he bit a small piece. Chewing hard, the karankalang rang, like chewing ice, but I couldn't chew it, so I soaked it in my saliva and softened it, and then chewed it and swallowed it.
Zuo Gui saw that he was eating hard, and said, "Okay, it's cold, wait until you go back and eat it hot." Eat hot at home first. ”
If Zuo Shaoyang was amnesty, he quickly stuffed the half bun into his arms, opened the food box, and took out two bowls of soup and four hot buns. The two of them were swept away, and they quickly ate it all, and even drank the soup cleanly.
Zuo Shaoyang peeked at Miao Peilan while eating, and saw that she was eating the buns she gave, so he was relieved.
Zuo Gui saw that he was looking at the girl who sold firewood, and asked Zuo Shaoyang, "Who is it?" ”
"She is the firewood girl who knocked me down the cliff last time I fell off the cliff, her name is Miao Peilan."
"Oh, why don't you thank them?"
"Thank you, my sister gave her money, but she didn't want it."
Zuo Gui praised: "Kindness is not reciprocated, good man!" ”
