Chapter 145: Pomegranate Beads (3)

Xing Ruyi noticed Nan Zhu's eyes, shook his head, but didn't say anything, but focused on studying Old Madam Nan's condition. This gout disease, don't say that at this time, even in the later life, there is no way to cure it, but it can only be relieved or controlled with medicated stones, so that people with this symptom can suffer from less onset of the disease, and the pain can be lighter and slower when the disease occurs.

I searched through my brain and found a few prescriptions, but none of them could work in a moment. Mrs. Nan has been tossed with gout for many days, and if she delays any longer, she is afraid that her body will be dragged down. While I was troubled, I suddenly heard someone report that the guy from the rouge shop had sent something to the shopkeeper.

At this time, there were only two in the Ruyi rouge shop, Xing Ruyi and the fox, and this thing must have been sent by the fox. After greeting Mrs. Nan, she went to the door, and sure enough, a handsome young man stood there with a basket.

This little guy looked like a fox had changed things out of something, and his eyes were a little dull.

"Did the fox send it to you?"

"Yes, the master explained, saying that the things that the shopkeeper needs are in this basket."

Suspiciously, she took the basket and opened it, and it turned out to be the radish balls she had made before. But if you look closely, you can feel that the balls are a little different from what I made before, and the surface seems to be wrapped in a layer of blue light.

"The master said, saying that although the shopkeeper balls are good, there is one thing missing in them. The master was afraid that the shopkeeper would make a fool of himself, so he personally went to Qingqiu, took some herbs over, grinded the herbs, and sprinkled them on this ball. The master also said, let the shopkeeper rest assured, this pill will not die if you eat it. ”

"Qingqiu Qingqiu, Qingqiu again, Qingqiu seems to be in the back garden of our rouge shop. How long have I been in this Nanfu, and he went back and forth to Qingqiu? Although his mouth was muttering, his hand took the basket very honestly.

I thought that I had to find some excuses to bring this plate of radish balls to Mrs. Nan, but I didn't think that just after entering the door, I heard the old lady ask: "Is there something wrong with my nose, how can I smell the aroma of radish?" ”

"It's turnips, it's the guy in the shop who brought you balls made of turnips. Old lady, do you want to try it? ”

"Meatballs made of white radish?" Mrs. Nan asked Nanzhu to help her up.

"Old lady, your nose is really smart, it is a ball made of white radish, and you still use the fresh radish that you just picked in the morning."

"Quick, bring it and let me smell it."

Xing Ruyi took out the radish balls from the basket and handed them to Nanzhu, then picked up the chopsticks that were placed aside and handed them over. The old lady first stared at the pill for a while, then opened her mouth and took a bite gently.

"This smell is familiar to me." Mrs. Nan chewed the balls gently, with those glimmers of reminiscing about the past in her eyes: "When I was a child, I also lived in the countryside with my parents for a while. At that time, my mother was seriously ill and needed to recuperate. There happens to be an old house in the countryside, although it is not surrounded by mountains and rivers, but it is also beautiful and very comfortable. I was stubborn and often ran away, and it didn't take long for me to get to know a family in the village. He has a young daughter who is about the same age as me. Her family grows vegetables, and there are a lot of vegetables in the boxy fields, but I don't know any of them. She laughed at me for being stupid, but she took my hand and taught me to recognize the vegetables. What spinach, cabbage, radish, all recognized. But what you know in the spring begins to grow in the fall, and what you know in the autumn will not be recognized in the winter. She always laughed at me and laughed at me for not dividing the grains, but I laughed at her that although she could distinguish the grains, she could call them out and couldn't write them.

I lived in the countryside for about two years and became best friends with the little daughter of the farmer's family. I taught her to read and write, she told me to identify fruits and vegetables, I brought her meat to eat, she brought me vegetables to eat. Among them is the radish balls she made herself. Although I like it, I can't cook, I barely do it, and I have to look at it or not, and I want it to taste tasteless. Fortunately, my family has few assets, and my parents have found me a husband with a comparable family background, whether it is when I am a girl or a daughter-in-law, I don't have to cook for myself, but I am not afraid of starvation. ”

"Not having to cook by yourself is also a blessing for you, old lady."

"Who's to say it isn't? This person has what he is good at and what he is not good at. After marrying into the Nan family, although I learned to make dim sum, I never learned to cook, especially when making this radish ball, I always felt that I couldn't eat the taste when I was a child. In the past, I always thought that when everything at home was arranged, I would go back to the old house in the countryside. When I got married, my parents gave me the house as a dowry, and I thought that when I went back, maybe I would see the girl when I was a child. Alas, now, it must be an old woman. ”

"Do you remember where that little girl lived and what her name was?"

Mrs. Nan thought for a while, and said in her heart: "I only remember a nickname, a child from the countryside, and I don't think there is a big name." However, I remember her house very clearly, because when I was a child, I often went there. Her parents were also very good people, and they didn't be polite to me because I was a rich girl, and they treated me the same way as they were to their girls. This kind of attitude makes me feel kind. I still remember that she promised a baby kiss, and her husband's family was also from the same village, and I saw her a few times when I was a child. ”

"How old was my grandmother at the time, how did she know that this person would not change when she grew up?"

"My pearl is right, this person will change." Mrs. Nan said, and glanced at Nanzhu deeply, and Nanzhu lowered her head with a little weakness. Old Madam Nan didn't seem to care, and continued: "It may be my grandmother's selfishness, and I think that they don't want to be good, although they are not necessarily rich, but they can live this life in harmony and beauty, without worrying about food and clothing. ”

Xing Ruyi asked for the address, and somehow the image of the aunt who sold vegetables in the early morning appeared in his mind.

There is no such coincidence in this world. She just got up early to buy radish and cabbage, and happened to meet an old lady Nan who loves to eat radish balls?

Shaking his head slightly, throwing aside all these messy thoughts, Xing Ruyi persuaded Mrs. Nan to eat a few more balls.

"What does the old lady think of the present?"

"It's strange to say, after eating this ball, I feel a lot lighter." Old Madam Nan moved slightly: "It's a lot easier, although it's still uncomfortable, it's not as painful as before." Dare to ask the shopkeeper, in addition to radish, what else is added to this radish ball? ”

"Add some pain-relieving herbs." The sentence is made up indiscriminately.

This fox only asked the transformed little guy to tell her that something was added to the radish ball, but he didn't tell her what was added to the radish ball, what effect it had, whether it could completely cure Mrs. Nan's gout, or could it only temporarily relieve the pain. If so, how long is this temporary?

was worried, for fear that the old lady would ask the name of the painkiller again, but heard the old lady branch Nanzhu out.

"Old lady, do you have something to say to Ruyi?"

"There's something I want to ask the shopkeeper." Old Madam Nan first glanced at the radish balls, and then her eyes fell on the special dough with animal liver added to the plate that had been shelved before: "The old woman wants to ask the shopkeeper, in that bread and fish soup, in addition to liver and fish, are there any other things?" ”

"Nope." Xing Ruyi replied honestly: "I just took a look, this dough is made with new noodles that have just been ground last winter, the flour is delicate and chewy, so the dough cake made is moderately soft and hard, but it is very suitable for the old lady at your age." And in the flour, there is also a layer of corn flour, corn is a coarse grain, which can regulate the stomach and intestines, and is also very beneficial to the body. Then there is the filling in this bread, which is also made of the best things, even the animal liver, which has been carefully selected. If it weren't for the old lady's gout, eating this bread would be good for the body. As for the fish soup, it is not domestic fish, but wild, and its nutritional value is much higher than that of the fishmongers who raise it themselves in the river ponds.

Things are all good things, and they are made with care, but for the old lady who suffers from gout, the better the things, the easier it is to aggravate the condition. ”

"According to the shopkeeper, is this person intentional or unintentional?"

"If it's once in a while, it's unintentional, and if these two things come alone, it's unintentional. But if it is always there, and it always appears together, then it is not unintentional, but intentional. ”

Mrs. Nan's eyes darkened, and she said, "Even if she has a heart, it's because she can't think of any other way." This stupid boy still can't trust me as a grandmother after all. ”

"Old lady, you know everything?"

"Zhizi Mo Ruomu, what is my stupid son, can I really not count in my heart? If the Li family really wanted to harm me, she would never rack her brains to come up with these things, she would directly poison me and do it once and for all. Even if I am temporarily ill and let her enter the door of my Nanjia temporarily, she is not afraid that she will be kicked out after I am sick. As long as the financial power of the Nan family is still in my hands, I will have enough say in the Nan family. Don't say that she is an outsider, even my stupid son Nanjing, and I can get out. ”

"Since the old lady knows the truth, why did she blame everything on the Li family just now."

"This is what Zhu'er wants, how can I, as a grandmother, bear not to follow her arrangement." Mrs. Nan sighed: "In the final analysis, it's all my fault, if it weren't for my lack of strict teaching son, I wouldn't have hurt Zhu'er's mother, and I wouldn't have let Zhu'er end up like she is now, with neither mother's pain nor father's love." Although I am in pain, my grandmother and grandmother still have an ancestral character. ”
