Chapter 84: Warm Brand Vest
Zhu Yao touched his stomach, rolled his eyes and moved his hands and feet, and his face was happy: "Well, at least I didn't vomit, I used to take the medicine prescribed by Huimin Tang, but after a while, I was dizzy and nauseous, and then I vomited, and then I vomited, and then it was as uncomfortable as my bones and tendons being pumped." After taking your medicine, although the place where it should hurt is still painful, at least I don't want to vomit, my head is not dizzy or panicked, and it is not so uncomfortable. That's a good idea. I just don't know if I can cure the disease? ”
"Uncle, the so-called illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread. The general illness is so, not to mention that you are slow surname rheumatism and paralysis, it should be the root of the disease left by your early years in the wind and rain to pull the fiber to support the boat and run the dock to sell medicinal herbs, and the disease accumulated for a long time is impossible to completely remove in the morning and night, and you have to slowly recuperate, however, if you can insist on taking the medicine, at least three or five days, and at most seven or eight days, the pain will be significantly reduced, the condition will be significantly improved, and your old disease can slowly get better. ”
"Well, that makes sense. Okay, you can concoct medicine for me for another five days, I will take it for five days in a row, see if it has any effect, if it is really as effective as you said, I will find you and discuss something with you. ”
"What's the matter?" Left Shaoyang Road.
"We'll talk about it when it's effective." Zhu Yao Cabinet turned his head and shouted outside the door: "Sang Wazi, bring a pen and paper!" ”
Sang Wazi agreed outside, and quickly brought in a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, put it on the table, and wrote a note in the medicine cabinet, that is, to tell his son to take the medicine for Zuo Shaoyang to concoct. After writing, he took out the money bag from the medicine cabinet, took out a small piece of broken silver, and put it in front of him: "Oh, this is for you, still go to my Hengchang medicine store to get the medicine, concoct it and send it to my medicine store, and I will decoct it myself." ”
"Okay," Zuo Shaoyang pushed back the small broken silver in front of him, "Uncle, the silver you gave last time is enough, and all six payments of medicine are more than enough." Besides, these six medicines are all used by your own medicinal materials, and I don't have a penny of medicine, so I just concoct it, and it doesn't cost so much money, so I don't need to give it anymore. ”
Zhu Medicine Cabinet stared at him for a moment, and nodded slowly: "Well, it is not easy for a Langzhong, especially a bell doctor, not to be greedy for money." Alright then, I've been delaying you for half a day, so let's go! Maybe your dad is in a hurry. ”
Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly got up and said goodbye. There were more tea customers in the tea shop, and Sang Xiaomei stood at the door of the kitchen and watched him come out, and said with a smile: "Look at you are so frozen, your nose is red." ”
Zuo Shaoyang also wanted to smile in return, but the cold winter river wind in the backyard blew his face wood, and he couldn't squeeze out a smile desperately, so he glanced back at the backyard and whispered angrily: "It's not all the old man who wishes him, he doesn't sit when the front hall is warm, but runs to the backyard to blow the river breeze, which causes me to freeze together." ”
"Hee-hee, he's like that, he likes to sit by the river when he drinks tea all year round, no matter how cold it is. - You come to the kitchen to bake the fire, and I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup to go to the cold. ”
"No, I have to hurry back, my dad is still waiting for me to go on patrol. Thank you! I'm leaving. ”
Zuo Shaoyang walked through the front hall and came to the door. Sang Mu was carrying a pot of water to the tea guests at the door, and when she saw that he was leaving, she greeted him and said with a smile: "Xiao Langzhong, are you leaving?" ”
"Yes, auntie."
"Why don't you sit down for a while and have a cup of tea before leaving."
"Don't sit down, there's something going on at home."
Sang Xiaomei hurried over from the kitchen and whispered to Sang Mu: "Mother, the tea mill is broken, and the tea can't be milled, you can go and take a look!" ”
"Huh?" Sang Mu walked to the kitchen and said, "How can a good one be bad?" I'll take a look. You look out there! ”
"Oh."
Seeing that Sang's mother entered the kitchen, Sang Xiaomei looked left and right and saw that no one was paying attention, took two steps forward, got close to Zuo Shaoyang, turned her body sideways, took out a small blue package from her arms, handed it to Zuo Shaoyang, and said in a low voice: "I sewed a crotch for you, you walked around the village and the village is very cold, wear this close-fitting, warm it up." ”
The crotch is the current vest, which was first used by military soldiers to protect the chest and back, and later spread to the people, made into a kind of intimate clothing with front and back, and later developed into a vest.
Zuo Shaoyang was grateful, took the package, pinched it, it was soft, presumably with silk, and said busily: "This costs a lot of money, I can't ask for it." "I handed the crotch back.
Sang Xiaomei didn't answer, and pushed it back: "You don't even ask for money to help me treat my illness, what's the point of making a crotch for you, take it quickly, it won't be good when my mother comes out and sees it." ”
Zuo Shaoyang remembered the suddenly broken tea mill that Sang Xiaomei said just now, and immediately understood, and said in a low voice: "The tea mill is not bad, you lied to your mother just now, and you want to break her up." Is it? ”
"Hehe," Sang Xiaomei nodded proudly, "You go quickly!" Yanran smiled and turned into the tea shop.
Zuo Shaoyang had no choice but to put the package under his armpit and hurriedly returned to Guizhi Hall.
Zuo Gui was already in a hurry, and finally saw him come back, and he didn't ask what the result was, but just said: "Let's go!" "Take the bell doctor banner and step out of the door.
Zuo Shaoyang knew that Zuo Gui's father had no hope of making money by concocting medicinal materials at all, so he didn't even bother to ask. Seeing that Dad was far away, he didn't care about changing into a vest, threw the vest on the bed, hurriedly put on the medicine box, hurried to catch up with Daddy, and went out of the city.
I didn't say anything all the way, climbed a mountain road that came for an hour, and finally arrived at the old locust tree village on the top of Qianren Mountain.
After the follow-up treatment of the little young master and Aunt Li of the rich man, the condition of the two was stable and improved, and the effect was not better, and Zuo Gui's father asked Zuo Shaoyang to give them a few more medicines to continue to eat.
Rich Jia naturally set up a banquet to entertain his father and son, and then Daddy Zuo Gui was free to talk to Rich Master Jia, Zuo Shaoyang went to Miao Peilan's house, saw that the door was locked, and inquired from the neighbors to know that the Miao family went out early in the morning and went to Suizhou to visit relatives. had to return to Jia's house depressed.
After eating, Zuo Gui and his son shook the bell and continued to go to the village to visit the village, and walked to two more villages and saw several patients. When it was time to fall in the West Mountain, the two of them returned to the city. After calculating it, this half-day visit, after deducting the capital, earned almost 20 yuan in net profit. The family was very happy.
The next day, when Zuo Shaoyang got up, he took out the silk cotton crotch sewn by Sang Xiaomei. The fabric of this crotch is kudzu linen, which is not soft enough, but it is very thick, which is suitable for making a vest that does not need to be bent. At the heart of the front piece of the crotch, a small budding spring flower is embroidered. The petals are delicate and lifelike.
Zuo Shaoyang stroked the spring flowers, remembering that she saw a spring flower in Sang Xiaomei's house the day before, presumably this was her favorite flower. Maybe it's a metaphor for herself, embroidering this flower in her heart at the moment, isn't it a hint that she has her in her heart?
Zuo Shaoyang saw the four sides of the crotch again, embroidered with a hundred years of auspicious lace patterns, which was even more illustrative, and couldn't help but beat in his heart. But seeing that the embroidery is very exquisite, and the stitches are very fine, it can be seen that a lot of effort has been taken.
After appreciating it for a while, I put it on, not too big or too small, so it can be seen that this Sang Xiaomei is very good at needlework, no need to measure, just by looking at the eyes you know how big you are wearing. Sew a vest that fits like this. The silk cotton used is also very thick, worn on the body, the front and back of the heart are suddenly warm, and I don't know whether it is the effect of the silk cotton or the effect of the warm brand. I thought that with this vest, I would not be afraid of freezing if I went to the village to practice medicine.
Put on your robe and start kneeling on the bed to tidy up and make the bed. Under the pillow, a handkerchief was revealed. Zuo Shaoyang was stunned for a moment, the whole person froze, slowly reached over, and gently took the pillow away, revealing the bag of things below.
Unfolded, inside is [***] half of a black flour bun sandwiched with wild vegetables. - This is Miao Peilan, a firewood girl. Looking at it, Zuo Shaoyang's eyes saw Miao Peilan's petite and sturdy body, her forever bright smile, her dark skin and a few faint freckles on the wings of her nose, and the body fragrance of the spring grass that filled her body.
Zuo Shaoyang couldn't help but show a sweet smile at the corner of his mouth, raised his hand and touched the warm vest on his body, and finally put down the black-faced bun, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and still put it under the pillow, then took off the jacket, took off the vest he was wearing closely, glanced at the spring flower on his heart, carefully folded the vest, put it on the shelf at the end of the bed, and pressed the hand-copied medical books given by Zuo Gui's father on it, and then exhaled softly.
He put on his robe again, went down the stairs, and carried a bucket to fetch water, and naturally met Sang Xiaomei and the Sang family's sister-in-law, who used a lot of water to open a tea shop, and it took more than half an hour to use it.
Seeing Zuo Shaoyang coming down the steps, the sister-in-law of the Sang family looked left and right at no one, so she smiled strangely: "Hey! Is the crotch sewn by our little sister warm? Hee-hee"
Zuo Shaoyang couldn't say that the vest was originally worn by himself, because he remembered Miao Peilan, and took it off again, so he had to say: "It's good...... Hey, thanks. ”
"I should thank my little sister, she didn't sleep all night, so I sewed this crotch for you......"
"Sister-in-law!" Sang Xiaomei blushed.
Huang Qin grinned and said to Zuo Shaoyang: "Thank you is definitely going to be thanked, have you figured out how to thank you?" ”
"Thank you? Why don't I carry water for you? ”
Sang Xiaomei hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, my sister-in-law and I are enough to carry water, your shop is very busy, don't delay your business." ”
"The store is not busy, I will open the door when I go back after helping you pick up water."
"I really don't need to." Sang Xiaomei smiled bitterly and whispered, "If you want to carry water, people will talk about me behind my back, and my father will scold me......"
Zuo Shaoyang was stunned for a moment, and then understood, although the Tang Dynasty was relatively open, but after all, it was still under the constraints of feudal etiquette, and a big man helped her and a girl carry water back, and the people who saw it would not say about themselves, but secretly said that Sang Xiaomei did not abide by women's morals, and attracted flowers and butterflies to corrupt the door. I can't get into trouble with others.
Zuo Shaoyang sneered: "Then what can I do for you?" ”
Sang Xiaomei said quietly: "No, you just take care of the business in the hall." ”
Zuo Shaoyang listened to what he said, and after thinking about it carefully, he understood that Sang Xiaomei must know that the reason why her father has not expressed his position is that he thinks that Guizhitang is too poor, and Sang Xiaomei let herself take care of Guizhitang, which means that she will let herself think about getting the business up, and when the family situation is good and he has money, it is possible for Sang Xiaomei to consider the marriage of the two. Thinking of this, a heart is even more entangled.
