Eating is rising, Xiangru feels that one is not enjoyable, licks her mouth, temporarily puts aside the taboo of "eating too many eggs is not good for digestion", and picks up another one to eat.

Halfway through the second steamed egg, footsteps sounded outside the kitchen, and Xiangru looked up and saw that it was the kitchen ladies who came to make snacks.

"Huh? So early today? ”

"Can't sleep, you were summoned by Aunt Xiao and wanted to talk to you, but when we found that you were not in the room, we estimated that you must have come to the kitchen. What are you doing? Making new snacks again? The cooks surrounded Xiangru.

"Well, I just made a steamed egg with fresh orange, you guys are late, and I ate both. Hiccup, it tastes good, would you like to try it? The two steamed eggs went down, Xiangru burped, shook the orange peel bowl in her hand, and asked with a smile.

The cooks laughed, "What else do you need to say?" Hurry, hurry. ”

Xiangru instructed them to make a fire and boil water, and she washed two oranges and came back to cook them in the same way. Her approach to the cooks is very novel, chirping and talking on the side, until the steamed eggs are ready, they are reluctant to put it down after tasting it, and the extra three people are also carefully divided into three equal parts, and divide them cleanly.

The four of them were full and slowly began to prepare everyone's snacks for the afternoon.

After telling the cook to leave her a piece of dough, Xiangru also began to do things.

She cut a piece of mutton that was delivered today, chopped it into a meat filling, mixed it with seasonings, and divided it into two parts. First take a portion into the pot to boil the sauce, put the minced green onion and ginger, mix with an appropriate amount of stock anti-paste pot, change the heat to low heat and keep stir-frying, until the sauce is viscous, add sesame oil and mix well out of the pot, this is the original flavor. Wash the pot, put two dried peppers and stir-fry the pot, and then add another meat filling, the same step, after it is done, it is spicy.

If it weren't for the fear that Aunt Xiao wouldn't be able to stand the spicy, Xiangru actually wanted to put the ready-made pickled hot sauce directly.

Divide the two lamb sauces in two small bowls of different colors, and the dough she asked for over there is also ready. Xiangru is divided into ten dough pieces, each of which is rolled out into an oval shape, thinly smeared with a layer of oil, and folded in half.

Xiangru originally wanted to make lotus leaf cakes, but the simple tool used to shape them was a clean comb, and today she made this snack on a temporary basis, and she didn't have time to find a comb at this time, so she ingeniously used a copper spoon to scratch both sides of the dough and turned the lotus leaf cake into a shell cake.

Cover the wet drawer cloth and continue to make the hair, and when the dim sum embryos made by the other cooks are completed, they will be steamed together in the drawer.

Taking advantage of this intermittent time, Xiangru set out to make a new portion of fresh orange steamed eggs. This time I only cut one orange and made two servings.

There was also a small steamer to steam these two bowls of eggs, and while they were steaming, Aunt Rong suddenly appeared in the kitchen earlier than usual, chasing Xiangru and asking if she had any new snacks today.

The steamed eggs came out of the pot before the dim sum, and Aunt Rong's eyes widened when she looked at the two sweet orange steamed eggs.

The two steamed eggs were each held on a plate and then packed in a shallow bottom plate, covered with a pot lid and temporarily placed next to the stove to keep warm, and she went to work on the food box first. Scoop a scoop of boiling water and pour it into the bottom of the feeding box, which is a sealed cabin, and uses the temperature of water vapor to keep the food warm after being filled with boiling water, and the upper partitions are perforated, so that the food in the upper layers can be kept warm.

After that, the snacks are ready.

Xiangru put the steamed eggs on the top layer of boiling water with the plate, and added the partition; Ten shell cakes were stacked in two stacks and placed on a large plate, and the two bowls of meat sauce were also placed on the plate and placed in the food box, and in the space on the side were placed four empty plates, four copper spoons and four pairs of chopsticks, and finally the lid of the food box was closed.

"Auntie, you're all set."

"Let's go!"

Aunt Rong walked ahead, and Xiangru followed behind with a heavy food box.

Aunt Xiao's desire to see Xiangru was already known to everyone at noon, so Xiangru always found someone looking at her on the road, and her eyes were much warmer than when they came to the kitchen to get food.

The two came to Aunt Xiao's residence, and as soon as they stepped into the courtyard, they saw someone coming out of it to greet them, Xiangru raised her eyes and saw that it was not Aunt Xiao's cinnamon, but Madder, the apprentice of Mrs. Xie.

"Aunt Rong is here, please come in, Aunt Xiao is just talking to my master about you."

"Yo, Madder girl, Doctor Xie is also there?" The people around the doctor's wife and the aunts also have to give face.

"My master heard that Aunt Xiao was going to see Sister Xiangru at noon, and she was curious for a while, she also wanted to see what such a good cook looked like, and I also wanted to thank her for the sweet soup she cooked for her in the past few days, it was delicious."

"Really? This is as it should be. Aunt Rong glanced back at Xiangru, and Xiangru immediately bowed her head obediently, "Doctor Xie is polite." ”

"Come on in." Madder raised the cotton curtain and summoned Aunt Rong and Xiangru into the room.

In the hall, Yugui was coming out of Aunt Xiao's bedroom, and she smiled when she saw her, "It's considered to be in, we are still talking about how long you are going to talk outside?" But when I hear you speak, I don't see anyone coming in. ”

"Let Aunt Xiao wait for a long time, it's a sin."

Cinnamon took the food box from Xiangru's hand and led the two into the house.

Aunt Rong greeted her first, and then Xiangru stepped forward to salute.

Aunt Xiao and Mrs. Xie were sitting side by side on the edge of the bed to roast the fire, and after Xiangru saluted, she called her to take a closer look, and then you talked to her word by word, and Xiangru answered them one by one.

Aunt Rong stood on the side and smiled so much that her eyes narrowed, and she secretly wondered if she had a better chance of passing.

Cinnamon and Madder were busy laying out the dim sum at the round table, and the dough and meat sauce on top did not interest them, but when the partition was lifted to reveal the fresh orange steamed egg underneath, they let out a small "wow", which interrupted Aunt Xiao's conversation.

"What's wrong?" Aunt Xiao asked.

"Xiangru, is this a steamed egg?" Cinnamon and Madder looked curious, and the two carefully took out the steamed eggs.

"Yes, today's new snack, steamed eggs with fresh oranges." Xiangru hurried over to help.

"Oh, it's just right, Doctor Xie is here, Xiangru took an orange and made two steamed eggs, and it just so happened that Doctor Lady also tasted it together?" Aunt Rong also came to the table, took a spoon and put it on the plate, held the plate in her left hand and the orange in her right hand, and handed it to Aunt Xiao.

Madder took the other one and sent it to Doctor Xie.

"Yo, it's really strange, I eat oranges every year, but I've never seen steamed eggs with oranges, is this only using this orange peel or ......?" Aunt Xiao directly took the orange peel bowl and looked left and right.

"Back to Aunt Xiao, I used the pulp, the flesh of half an orange and the juice mixed with an egg, and then poured it back into a bowl and steamed it in water. The eggs have orange flesh in them, and they have a tender texture, you can try them. Xiangru explained in detail.

After listening to the explanation, Aunt Xiao and Doctor Xie started to move, praising while eating. Praising Xiangru is tantamount to praising herself, and Aunt Rong laughed so much that her mouth was sour.

After the two of them finished eating the steamed eggs, Cinnamon and Madder served four shell cakes, each with two portions of meat sauce with different tastes, Aunt Xiao ate two pieces of original flavor, and Doctor Xie only ate one piece of spicy flavor, and she also told jokes on her lips, not daring to snatch her favorite food from Aunt Xiao, which caused everyone to laugh.

"Come, let's talk here, Cinnamon will make a pot of hot tea, Madder, you take Xiangru to Cinnamon room to play for a while, and call you back."

"Yes, Aunt Xiao, I'll go and paint some of Sister Gui's tricks." Madder giggled, took Xiangru's hand and ran.

"Hey, you girl, isn't it enough to take away so much from me?" Yugui couldn't catch up and stomped her feet in protest, which made Aunt Xiao and the others laugh again.

Madder led Xiangru through the hall to the bedroom of the cinnamon on her right, and Madder found the charcoal basket that the cinnamon had placed in the corner of the wall, and put a few pieces of charcoal to relight the fire in the brazier, and the room gradually warmed up.

Xiangru sat under the window and watched Madder scurrying around in this room, lit the brazier and opened the cabinet to take out the embroidery patterns of the cinnamon collection and put them on the table, and then brought paper and pen to describe them seriously.

Xiangru went outside and poured a pot of hot boiling water back, drank a few sips and suddenly found that the opportunity is rare now, Madder is the apprentice of Doctor Xie, and there are no outsiders at this time, so I just asked Madder about the inside story of the pharmacy to see if he has a chance to change jobs.

"Madder." Xiangru called tentatively.

"Huh?" Madder snorted.

"Are you waiting for these patterns to embroider clothes?"

"No, but it's a rare opportunity, and Sister Yugui doesn't take it out for me easily."

"yes, these patterns are pretty good, I haven't seen them before."

"Needless to say, Sister Cinnamon is Aunt Xiao's personal girl, Aunt Xiao is old, and some of the errands outside are done by Sister Cinnamon on her behalf, and after a long time, I can always meet a few people, and get some beautiful tricks to come in and do a little thing." Madder's tone was smug, as if the embroidery patterns were her own.

"What about you? What do you do with the doctor every day? ”

"I'm simple, I'll go wherever the master goes. However, after accepting as an apprentice, there is usually not so much work to do, as long as you take care of the master and yourself, even the clothes can be sent to the pulp washing room, and you only wash your own personal clothes. ”

"With such a good treatment? I thought that only my aunt in charge could go to the pulp laundry room to do laundry. ”

"What you say is not right, the apprentice of the doctor is the future doctor, and the female doctor hall is built for the doctors, separated from the male doctors, where the doctor is the biggest, who dares to offend? Didn't you see Aunt Fang also have to talk politely to the doctor? Especially the doctor with good medical skills, there is a chance to go to the ladies to see the sick, and the lady is happy to casually reward an object worthy of the monthly money of the people below for several months. ”

"Really? Didn't you say that the people who treated my mother were all male doctors? ”

"Oh, the rule is that the dead are alive. Besides, it's not like you're embarrassed to look at a male doctor for any disease, which woman doesn't have some unspeakable little problems? ”

"Oh, I see. Does the doctor have the right to prescribe? ”

"It depends on the person, the palace maids are all under the care of the doctor, this is nothing to say, the ladies must be above the grade of the doctor's wife, and the doctor has no right to prescribe, so she can only truthfully record the patient's symptoms and come back to the medical officer to prescribe medicine."

"Ah, I see, only the people who take the medicine in our pharmacy have the right to prescribe, and everyone else is the business of male doctors."

"You understand well, that's it."

"But what if the doctor's record is wrong, or the doctor's understanding is wrong? Wouldn't it be troublesome to prescribe the wrong medicine? ”

"No, there are special words for all kinds of diseases, just use this kind of word to describe it, even the imperial doctor who treats the emperor can understand it. Moreover, the doctors in the palace are relatively conservative in prescribing medicines, and after a few prescriptions, at most the medicine is not strong enough to recover slowly, and then change the prescription when the follow-up is completed, and there is no such thing as the medical officer reading the wrong diagnosis and prescribing the wrong medicine and taking the wrong medicine. ”

"Oh, that's, it's also for the sake of safety, if someone with a noble status takes the wrong medicine, then it's a big trouble."

"Who's to say it's not, there must have been such a regulation in the first place. After all, the doctors are in the palace every day, unlike the imperial doctors, who are on duty during the day and go home in the evening. The doctor has no access to the outside world, and her vision is limited, so it is always a good mistake to be careful. ”

"But the number of doctors is not much, and there are only a dozen or twenty of them, is it enough?"

"According to my observation for so long, there is nothing that is not enough, many lowly palace girls do not come to us when they are sick, in terms of numbers, but those aunts with heads and faces will come to us whenever they are unwell, especially those who serve beside the upper ladies, even the doctors dare not offend them. As for the low-level ladies, we also have to be careful to serve, no matter how low their status is, they are also the masters. ”

"Do you have to call your mother when you see them? Do they all deserve that title? ”

"Generally speaking, they are not qualified to be called mothers, but it doesn't matter if they shout a few times behind closed doors, they are just happy, they are sick and in a bad mood, let's be sweet and don't suffer, besides, who knows which of them will soar into the sky in the future? Let's wait for it, maybe there will be a lithia in the future. ”

"Wow, that sounds complicated, how long did it take you to figure out all these doorways when you came in?" Xiangru consciously began to change the subject.
