Fennel hurriedly came over and said, "I'll help you figure it out." ”

"It's okay, I'll do it myself!" Zuo Shaoyang picked up the pen and counted on the paper, but Fennel was not at ease, so he also took out the calculation chip from the drawer and began to calculate. But she hadn't laid out the calculations yet, Zuo Shaoyang had already calculated the result: "A total of ninety-six dollars!" ”

Everyone naturally didn't believe the result that Zuo Shaoyang calculated with a pen, and looked at the fennel who was holding the calculation chip, and after a while, fennel glanced at Zuo Shaoyang in surprise and said, "It's ninety-six, that's right." ”

Everyone was stunned, the weight of these several medicines is different, and the unit price of each medicine is also different, and the calculation results are almost impossible to calculate by heart, and they must use a calculation chip, and they can't imagine that Zuo Shaoyang can calculate a relatively complex calculation process with a pen, and they are all surprised.

Zhao Sanniang didn't pay attention to Zuo Shaoyang's calculations, but was a little proud of her shrewdness, threw a hawthorn into her mouth, and said, "I said it, how can you use so much money!" I don't care if you can be cured or not, I prescribed more than a dozen medicines in one go, and it was less than 100 yuan, and you actually wanted me more than 4,000 yuan, and my heart was too dark, right? ”

Zuo Shaoyang was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Third aunt, I don't understand, I talked nonsense before, don't be angry." It's hard for you to take these dozen or so medicines alone, I'll send them home for you! ”

"Hey! You love to listen to what you say, Zuo Dalang, don't be upset when you say something, you used to be like a wood, you didn't understand anything, you couldn't speak, you would giggle when you saw people, now it's very good, learn much more shrewdly! Shrewd! Come to my house and I'll give you preserved hawthorn to eat! Appetizers, it's good! ”

"Thank you, Aunt San!" Zuo Shaoyang put on more than a dozen packs of medicine, carried it with his hand, and said to Zuo Gui: "Well...... I'll send the medicine home for the third aunt!" ”

Although he was attached to the dead Zuo Gui, the old man with a goatee in front of him was his father, but Zuo Shaoyang still couldn't turn around for a while, and this father couldn't call out.

Zuo Gui didn't care, and nodded: "Go and come back quickly, wait for you to eat!" ”

"Oh!"

Zuo Shaoyang carried the medicine bag and followed Zhao Sanniang to the door.

Fennel was not at ease, and caught up and said, "I'll go!" You've fallen, it's time to rest! ”

"I'm fine, sister, you go cook quickly, I'll wait for the delicious food when I come back, by the way, it's better to have wine to drink, that's good."

"Wine?" Fennel smiled bitterly, "I can't even open the pot at home, where can I get the money to drink?" ”

"Oh, forget it! I'm leaving! ”

When I went out, it was completely dark outside, but I hadn't gotten up yet, and the Tang Dynasty imposed a curfew, which only started after the second watch in the evening, which is equivalent to nine o'clock in the evening. The ancients had little entertainment at night, and they were used to going to bed early, and most people fell asleep at this hour. There were far fewer people on the street at this time, walking on the bluestone pavement, with snowdrifts piled up on both sides of the road, reflecting a dull silver in the light.

Zuo Shaoyang is not used to wearing this kudzu jacket, far less warm than the down jacket and sweater in modern society, the cold wind drills into the collar and cuffs, and penetrates from the cloth surface that is thick but not warm enough, and it has been drilling into the bones, raw and cold.

Zhao Sanniang was wearing a silk cotton jacket, put her hands in the cuffs, but did not feel how cold, while walking and nagging Zuo Gui and his wife as a person, so that Zuo Shaoyang would be more clever in the future, but never mentioned the matter of rent, as if he decided that Zuo Shaoyang was fooling him in this matter, trying to delay it for a few more days, and he had already made up his mind in his heart, Chinese New Year's Eve, no matter what, he would take back the house.

Zhao Sanniang's family does not live in this condition. It's two streets apart.

Along the way, Zuo Shaoyang followed Zhao Sanniang's words to choose good words, one would praise Zhao Sanniang's clothes for being good-looking, one would say that Zhao Sanniang's face was well maintained, and she was tender and tender like an eighteen-year-old girl, and then said that Zhao Sanniang would manage her finances and would have a lot of money in the future, and then said that Zhao Sanniang had a good heart, and even ants were reluctant to step on one, and Zhao Sanniang was very happy.

The two came to the door of Zhao Sanniang's house, Zhao Sanniang walked up the stone steps, knocked on the knocker, turned back to Zuo Shaoyang and said: "You kid, you haven't seen you for a few days, you can talk a lot, especially ah, you can tell your aunt's illness at once, there are still two times, and I don't know if your father's prescription works, if it really works, to be honest, I am really reluctant to let you go." Really, your father and mother are honest people, I know it in my heart, so even though you are in arrears of rent, I don't have much to force debts, but I also have to eat, and I can't suffer with you, right? Alas! If your dad is as sensible and talkative as you, he can give you a few more days of grace!

Zuo Shaoyang knew that if his method could work, he would pay the rent without even five days, and if he couldn't get the money, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get 9,000 wen for a few more months. So the surname Suo was generous, and he said with a bit of a big heart: "Third aunt, thank you very much, but you have given me a lot of grace, this time, I have made a lot of efforts, and I have to pay the money owed to you by smashing the pot and selling iron!" ”

Zhao Sanniang was a little surprised when she heard him say generously, so she glanced at him a few times: "Cheng!" I believe in you! Chinese New Year's Eve, I'm here to hear good news from you! ”

"You just put your heart in your stomach! Third aunt. Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile.

At this time, the door of Zhao Sanniang's house opened, and an old man came out with his heart down. Seeing Zhao Sanniang, she hurriedly bowed to the side and said, "Grandma is back!" ”

Zhao Sanniang snorted and said, "Take the medicine bag in Young Master Zuo's hand, I don't have any eyesight!" ”

The old man hurriedly agreed, hurried out, and took the medicine bag from Zuo Shaoyang's hand.

Zuo Shaoyang took a step forward and said to Zhao Sanniang: "Auntie, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Zhao Sanniang said: "If you have anything to say, you can say it!" ”

"This is actually for the sake of your illness."

"Really? Then hurry up. ”

"Auntie, do you know how you got this stomach ache?"

Zhao Sanniang shook her head.

Zuo Shaoyang pointed to the half of the hawthorn in Zhao Sanniang's hand: "This thing is the one who hurt you!" ”

"What? Hawthorn? ”

"Hmmm! Hawthorn can eliminate dietary stagnation, especially meat accumulation, that is to say, hawthorn is good at digesting the stagnation caused by meat food, if you are too full after meals, especially if you eat big fish and meat, it is most suitable to eat some hawthorn to help digestion, but if you have nothing to eat hawthorn as a snack, it will be troublesome! ”

"What's the trouble?"

"Do you think, hawthorn is good at eliminating accumulated food, it enters the stomach, what can be seen and consumed, there is meat to eliminate meat, there is rice to eliminate rice, if there is nothing, third aunt, you say, what will it consume?"

"Eliminate what?" Zhao Sanniang vaguely felt a little bad, and felt a chill in her heart.

"Kill the meat!" Zuo Shaoyang lowered his voice and said, "You eat hawthorn on an empty stomach, and you have been eating hawthorn as a snack for many years, it was originally to eliminate flesh, and there is no meat in the stomach on an empty stomach to eliminate it, hawthorn It doesn't know that the purpose of eating it is not to consume, but to satisfy hunger!" If you don't have meat, it will only kill your stomach! Over the years, your stomach has been eaten by this hawthorn, all of which are rotten holes, and we have medically damaged this stomach ulcer and stomach that you eat as a snack! What kind of stomach pain, anorexia and sour water are all the consequences of this! ”

"Huh?" Zhao Sanniang was startled, and glared at Zuo Shaoyang, "Don't scare your aunt!" ”

"You don't believe it, you can not listen, continue to eat, your current diseases are just the beginning, but soon, it won't be long, your stomach will not be able to use, at that time, hehe, auntie, I didn't scare you, at that time, I wanted to save it, but there was nowhere to save it!"

Zhao Sanniang's face was cloudy, she looked at Zuo Shaoyang, and saw that he didn't seem to want to lie to herself, and after thinking about it carefully, she also felt that what Zuo Shaoyang said was reasonable, and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

"It's very simple, if my aunt wants to cure your disease, the first important thing is to change your bad habit of eating hawthorn as a snack! At least you can't eat it until you get better, and you can't eat it as a snack after you get better! In particular, it should not be eaten on an empty stomach before meals. And keep taking this medicine we prescribe, it won't take long for your illness to be cured! ”
