It's dark at night.

Shen Mingzhen's bookcase is still full of stacks of medical records, most of which are from the princesses and concubines in the imperial city, and they are all medical records of cold and fever, unstable pregnancy, and lack of qi and blood.

She has studied medicine for many years, and it is no problem to treat these minor diseases. But because it was a prescription for the nobles, the prescription had to be carefully considered, and it seemed that it had only been written for a long time, and a long night light had been hung outside.

When it was approaching, Zisu couldn't bear her being too tired, and persuaded: "It's late at night, Miss should rest first." ”

Shen Mingzhen shook her head, finished writing the last prescription, stood up and stretched her waist, and handed the pharmacy she had opened to Zisu: "You have someone bring these to Master tomorrow, let him see if there is anything wrong with the prescription, and when Master has finished reading and making annotations, you can bring these back to me." ”

"Yes."

Zi Su served her to bed, and kneaded Shen Mingzhen's temples with both hands.

"Why is the young lady so tired?"

Shen Mingzhen did not answer.

In the last life, she was forced to marry into Wu'an Houfu, her husband said that he loved her, but he still married a concubine, and her mother-in-law didn't like her and embarrassed her everywhere.

She was immersed in the cage of Nano, and after the birth of the child in the concubine's room, she took over the support of the child as the main mother. Such a small child, white and tender, looking at her with open eyes and smiling. She held the child and rejoiced all day, prepared a small mattress for him, a cloth tiger, and even gave him the moire ruyi lock given by her grandmother when she was born.

She had only raised him for a day, and before she could even share the joy of this child with her husband, she died in her bedroom.

She didn't even know how she died.

After Shen Mingzhen was reborn, the Shen family's life was not easy.

Her mother is very much like her in her previous life, guarding her father's thoughts every day, waiting in the courtyard for her father's review. Mother is like a lamp, the years have exhausted the lamp oil, but the lamp that is getting old is still waiting for it.

Frankly speaking, my father was not kind to my mother, and he often scolded him, and even when he came to her courtyard, he rarely rejoiced. But even so, my mother was still looking forward to it for a long time.

Like most women of this era, she kept her husband by and had no other way.

Bound by the words of etiquette, she can only marry and obey her husband, and live by her husband, just like in her previous life.

After Shen Mingzhen was reborn, she kept thinking about whether this was right.

On the one hand, it is the common choice of secular women, and on the other hand, it is their own willfulness.

She thought about it for a long, long time, and decided to listen to her heart. The main thing is to live a good life, and those etiquette and religious constraints let them get out of the way.

That's why when she was seven years old, she was so persistent in asking Imperial Doctor Hu to take her as an apprentice. She begged him desperately, and in order to prove her obsession with studying medicine, she was willing to try the interpreted pill for Imperial Doctor Hu.

The world has always been harsh on women, and she can only work hard to get the life she wants to become.

I didn't have a dream all night, and when I woke up the next day, the sun was already hanging in the sky. The sun was unbearable, and even if Shen Mingzhen used Bingjian in her room, she still felt that her throat was very dry and hot.

She instructed Shiso: "Go to the kitchen and ask for a bucket of sour plum soup, bring it back and share it with everyone." ”

Zi Su responded, and after a while, she ignored the rules of etiquette and angrily lifted the curtain and entered the house: "Miss, look at these minions." ”

Murmur whispers came in.

The voice is small, but it is very clear.

"Our young lady treats us really badly, and the slaves in the second and third rooms are much better off than us."

"yes, even the sour plum soup over there is chilled. I heard that there are people on both sides, and you can go over for only two taels of silver. ”

"Yes, then let's go together, the life here is really not human. I just finished sweeping the yard in the morning, and my arms were sore and tired, so I was asked to carry the sour plum soup, and the old lady was still waiting to go to the house to rest. ”

“……”

Before Shen Mingzhen could speak, Zi Su was already crying angrily.

The sour plums used in their second room are all extremely fresh, and the bedding boxes and cages given to the people are also made of fine cotton and nanmu, and these people are still not satisfied.

Ice in the capital is expensive, and five catties of ice will cost two taels of silver to buy, and many ladies and ladies can't use it, and these people are still whimsical.

Zi Su said: "Miss, the slave maid asked someone to reward them with ten boards per person, but they are just servants and subordinates, and they have thought of being as respected as their masters, which is really not worth the sky." ”

Shen Mingzhen stopped her, and now she is weak, and she can't buy people's hearts, beating them ten boards, it seems that she has exercised the power to be the master, but it is difficult to guarantee that these people hate her even more behind their backs.

The heart is no longer there, so why force it to stay.

She said lightly: "Find out who is chewing the root of the tongue behind your back, and sell it." ”

Perilla is requirement.

The personal girl went out, and Mother Chen, who was serving her, walked in again, and smiled at her: "Miss is Miss Shen of the Shen family, those people are arrogant, and they can't change your honorable status." ”

"Hmm." Shen Mingzhen nodded.

She didn't care much about these things, and today's sour plum soup reminded her of another incident.

In the previous life, it was probably at this time that my mother was not loved by my father, and was robbed of the housekeeping by two aunts.

My mother has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and she doesn't care much about these things. Who would have thought that after only three or four months of being decentralized, their mother and son were forced to draw the ground as a prison, not only lacking food and clothing, but also forced to lose even the prestige of their master.

In her previous life, her mother was not in good health, so she had to sell her jewelry in order to eat a bite of Kyoto Babaozhai's sauce duck to replenish her body. Even her dowry was divided by her aunt, saying that she was the main mother, but she was not as good as her subordinates, and she lived a very sloppy life in the second half of her life.

I'm afraid that the time of the two aunts will be today.

Shen Mingzhen was in a hurry, so she asked Chen's mother to go to the courtyard of the two aunts to take a look.

At this moment, those two are afraid that they are buying people's hearts and want to win the right to manage the middle feed, otherwise, how can they even give the chilled sour plum soup to their subordinates.

That bucket of sour plum soup is twenty taels of silver.

She's got to stop their plot!

Shen Mingzhen freshened up again, took the shiso and went to her mother's room. Since her mother couldn't see the current situation clearly, she took her with her!
