Chapter 40

After taking a break, Xiangru got up and redressed herself, and while it was still early, she embroidered flowers for a while, and by the way, she was waiting to see if Poria would come over to send any work. waited so long until Shen Chu, the snack time was almost up, and Poria still didn't come, so Xiangru packed up her things and went out.

Someone in the courtyard saw Xiangru greeting her, and Xiangru responded kindly, but ignored some of their sour words, raised her head and crossed the corner door, and went straight to the third courtyard in front.

Familiar with the way up to the second floor, came to the door of Dr. Xie's room, facing the scarlet felt curtain embroidered with black swastikas, Xiangru took a deep breath, touched her heart and felt as if her heartbeat was calmer, and then reported to the door curtain, "Is Mrs. Xie there?" Servant Xiangru. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiangru faintly heard the sound of broken footsteps, and then someone picked up the felt curtain from inside, revealing half of his face, which was Madder.

Xiangru stood at the door and saluted Madder, Madder turned sideways to let Xiangru in, and a screen of four flowers and birds at the door blocked the indoor scenery.

Madder put down the curtain, turned around and smiled sweetly at Xiangru, Xiangru also smiled sweetly, and glanced at the felt curtain again, and then walked hand in hand around the screen.

"Master, Xiangru is here." Madder led Xiangru and happily pounced on Doctor Xie sitting at the round table, where there was a needlework and fabric, and Lady Xie had already put down what she was doing and greeted Xiangru with a smile.

"Xiangru, please ask the doctor." Xiangru put her knees together, put her hands on her left knee with half clenched fists, and retreated half a step back with her right leg in a half-bent salute.

"No need to be polite, come and sit down."

Madder pushed Xiangru to sit down on the right hand side of Doctor Xie, quickly cleaned up the things on the table, turned around and brought a tea set and a red lacquer box, the box was divided into six grids, each grid put a few pieces of exquisite pastry, all of which Xiangru had never seen, and the red, red, green and green colors were very beautiful.

"Taste it, the mother rewarded it, it's delicious." Like a treasure, Madder pushed the box in front of Xiangru and poured her a cup of hot tea.

Xiangru did not refuse this warm hospitality, and generously ate a few pieces of pastry and drank half a cup of tea.

"How's it going, it's delicious, isn't it? If you are so good at cooking, you know that you like to eat good food. The ladies are all generous masters, as long as the master is recruited, he must reward a few boxes when he comes back, and he always can't finish eating most of the time before throwing it away. ”

Where did Xiangru dare to accept it, she waved her hand again and again, "I can't help it, Doctor Xie can afford to let me pay attention to me, and then bring things back, I won't be blinded to death." ”

"What does that have to do with you? If you feel that you can't stay any longer, why don't you come to me, just to be the companion of madder. Doctor Xie picked up her teacup and took a sip slowly, then smiled at Xiangru with the side of the teacup.

Xiangru suddenly stood up as if she had stepped on the electric door, her expression was a little surprised, she looked at Doctor Xie for a while, and then looked at Madder, hesitated for a while, and finally had the courage to ask.

"Doctor, you're not kidding?"

"What do you think?"

"This ......" Xiangru couldn't figure out what kind of road Doctor Xie was, not only did she not speak, but she retreated step by step, with a posture of rushing to the road at any time.

Seeing Xiangru's pitiful appearance of being cramped and uneasy, Doctor Xie softened, put away her thoughts of teasing her, and threw a look at Madder, who smiled and pounced, pushing Xiangru back to her original position and sitting down.

"Na, Xiangru, you are a smart person, we don't talk darkly, I've been eyeing you for a long time, I'll tell you the truth, you can transfer to the pharmacy, Aunt Xiao exchanged the position of head manager with Aunt Rong." Mrs. Xie's face was straight and she was honest.

"Huh?!" At first hearing these words, Xiangru suddenly felt that her heartbeat had missed a beat, her face changed, and she reflexively wanted to stand up again, and the madder behind her was quick and pressed her shoulders against the stool.

"Doctor, don't scare me!" Xiangru was so frightened that she stammered, she never thought that she could be transferred to the kitchen and have such a behind-the-scenes deal.

"What do you scare about, if I hadn't started to suspect you and consulted your file, you wouldn't have had a chance to transfer it."

"This and this ......, doctor, can you tell me the details?" Xiangru felt that she was sweating all over, but she couldn't figure out how she could be so nervous for a while.

"Actually, I'll notice that you were very accidental, and you told the little eunuch of the Lotus Whisker Courtyard about the ginger syrup drink, right? And candied radish pears, purple porridge and almond porridge, these are all passed on by you, right? ”

"Uh......" Xiangru straightened her back uncomfortably, her eyes rolling around.

Seeing her like this, Doctor Xie was amused in her heart, if she hadn't been suspicious of her first, she would have spent time to investigate, otherwise she would really miss a talent.

"That's it, don't think about making up excuses, since I can say this, I will naturally find out the situation a long time ago."

"Yes, the doctor is wise." Xiangru's heart was weak for a while, and her straight back bent again, she really didn't know what else she could say at this time.

"Hehe, don't be a sycophant, I just ask if you want to, right? I know you're short on time, but I think you should be able to handle it, just harder. ”

"Does the doctor really think so? How can you have so much faith in me? Xiangru was excited again.

"First of all, those prescriptions show that you have a certain medical foundation; Yesterday, your skillful action of picking medicine shows that you have been dealing with medicinal herbs for a long time; Finally, as I just said, I consulted your file. ”

"So apart from yesterday's selection of medicine, what is the order of the other two things? Could it really be those few recipes that piqued your interest? ”

"Hehe, Xiangru, I really didn't look away, you are smart enough."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be."

"That's right, the first thing that caught my attention was Aunt Xiao's diet, I know the kitchen people too well, how could someone who can't even make a new dish think of using such an ordinary food as rice soup to regulate the patient's stomach? Obviously, someone reminded Aunt Rong a little behind her back. ”

"That's it?! Lady Xie, you are amazing! Xiangru gave a thumbs up in admiration.

Doctor Xie blinked, and suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, laughing so much that Xiangru and Madder were confused.

"Xiangru, when you said that just now, you just admitted that you were the one who came up with the idea, right?"

Xiangru had three black lines hanging down from her forehead, and she actually lied to her, "It turns out that you don't know Doctor Xie?" ”

"Ah, I naturally didn't know it at the time, but I just suspected that Aunt Rong had a military advisor behind her to give her advice. Not long after, I accidentally learned about the ginger syrup drink from the Lotus Whisker Temple, and after thinking about it for a long time, I focused my suspicions on the kitchen, but I still didn't know who the person who passed on the recipe was, and it wasn't until the bowl of peanut pork rib soup that I focused my attention on you. ”

"How so? I didn't say anything at the time......"

"I know I know, you were just gossiping with Yu Gui at the time, but how could you bear to have an extra ear around you, she learned to me when she came back, and you were completely exposed to my eyes." Doctor Xie glanced at Madder.

Xiangru immediately turned her face to look at Madder, "Madder? Doctor Xie, you should tell me the whole process, why do I feel a little dizzy when I hear it? ”

"Dizzy? I'm already telling you about the most streamlined process of choosing, and in fact, I've spent a lot more effort on it than I can on a few dishes. ”

"It's me who lost my word." Xiangru immediately bowed her head and admitted her mistake.

"Hehehehe, that's it, it's nothing. Since I suspect that I have arrived in the kitchen, I naturally want to investigate clearly, and a girl with an identity like Madder doesn't have to go to the kitchen to get food, but I can't find anything if she doesn't go to the kitchen, so I excused myself to worry about the cooking skills of the kitchen girls, and I was afraid that the kitchen would be negligent and make something that Aunt Xiao couldn't eat, so I sent Madder to the kitchen to check it. She mingled in a crowd of girls and no one would notice her, and after a few days of going there she heard something important, and it was worth my effort. You cooked cinnamon pork rib soup that day, and you said to Cinnamon at that time, 'Peanut pork rib soup nourishes qi and nourishes beauty', do you remember? ”

Xiangru thought about it very seriously, but after so much time, where would she remember, so she shook her head, "I remember cooking this soup, but I don't remember saying it." Do you ...... with that? ”

"This sentence seems simple, but in an environment like the kitchen, when the two aunts in charge were fighting so fiercely, your faint words are enough to attract my attention."

"So you went check my file? Can you look this up? ”

"No, I didn't have any other thoughts at that time, but I was curious and wanted to know where you came from, so I asked Madder to approach you on the pretext of making a sweet soup to reduce the fire, talk to you, and test you."

Xiangru hung more black lines on her forehead, it turned out that she had not guessed wrong, and Doctor Xie was really interested in herself.

"I remember that Madder asked me to boil acacia porridge that afternoon...... Xiangru vaguely remembered what happened that day, but still didn't recall all the fragments, after all, it wasn't a big deal, and she forgot about it too much.

"That's right, as soon as Madder talked about acacia porridge, you blurted out and asked her if I was in bad spirits. That's it, finally made me make up my mind to investigate you properly. ”

Xiangru's throat slid up and down, and she swallowed a little saliva, "You're going to check the file?" ”

Mrs. Xie took a sip of tea and put the cup down with a smile, "Be patient when listening to stories." I was also very busy, in addition to being on duty, I also had to go to see the ladies and old aunts, so I took the opportunity to go to the Tai Hospital to hand in the medical records, and asked the little eunuchs in the Lotus Whisker Hospital, and finally let me find Banxia, and learned from him that you had given him four food prescriptions, all of which were symptomatic and coughed against the cold. ”

Xiangru sweated a little on her forehead, "I just sympathize, I didn't think about it that much." ”

"Your sympathy at this time, but you have committed the crime of trespassing, and in the eyes of other doctors, you will be called ignorant, they will immediately seize the opportunity to teach you a lesson, and they can also suppress Aunt Rong by the way. Thanks to your luck, I noticed this first, and out of curiosity, I will let you go for the time being. ”

The sweat on Xiangru's forehead became denser, and she smiled dryly, "Thank you for raising your noble hand." ”

"This little thing is connected, I am more and more curious about you, and I want to investigate and see what your background is, so I went to Aunt Xiao and looked through the copy of the roster of the year you entered the palace, and the result was ......" Speaking of this, Aunt Rong's face became serious.

Xiangru also couldn't help but become serious, "What's the result......?" ”

"On your page, the family business is written as a cook."
