Chapter Eighty-Six: Departure
"Cousin, I don't have anyone to play in the capital, Wang Chengyue's kid is a nerd, he knows how to read and read all day long, it's too boring. They are all five years old, like a little chick, white and tender, not a man at all. ”
Wang Chengwen was like opening a chatterbox, surrounding Mu Qingwan, rambling.
Wang Chengyue is the son of his uncle, five years ago, Mu Qingwan deliberately followed Mrs. Mu to Wancheng to see it, and now he is five years old.
Mu Qingwan remembered a person, Wang Chengkai, who should have been the eldest cousin, Wang Chengkai has not been heard from since the incident five years ago.
"What nonsense? Why don't you let your cousin go to rest, you bastard. ”
Second Uncle Wang came up and slapped Wang Chengwen on the back of the head.
"Cousin, look at Dad."
Wang Chengwen covered the back of his head and looked at Mu Qingwan aggrievedly.
"It's useless to beg anyone, go back to the house and write in big letters, and if you can't finish writing, you're not allowed to have lunch. Don't forget, stinky boy, what you promised. ”
Second Uncle Wang has long been accustomed to his youngest son's little tricks, and finally came up with a killer idea.
"Got it, got it, I'll go." Wang Chengwen walked away slowly, "Cousin wait for me." Turning around, ignoring the glare of Second Uncle Wang, Wang Chengwen said goodbye to Mu Qingwan.
"Qingwan, don't pay attention to him, don't go to the house for three days, he's very naughty."
……
It's hard to hurry, Mu Qingwan took care of it a little, and she slept beautifully, and woke up feeling more energetic. Mu Qingwan stretched her waist, and before she could get out of bed, she heard her cousin's voice outside the house.
"Hey, isn't my cousin awake yet? Then I'll wait for her here. ”
"Young Master Cousin, why don't you go back first, and when the young lady wakes up, I'll inform you?" It's auspicious.
"No, no. I'll just wait here. ”
"Cousin, you're here." Mu Qingwan quickly dressed up and went out.
"Cousin." Wang Chengwen was very happy to see Mu Qingwan wake up.
"Miss, lunch is ready, do you want to eat some?" Ruyi asked Mu Qingwan what he meant.
"Bring the food to my uncle, and we'll eat together."
"Cousin, why do you want to eat with the old man?" Wang Chengwen reluctantly, hey, he is going to be scolded by the old man again.
Old man? The second uncle is in his thirties, these two fathers and sons.
After lunch, Wang Chengwen took advantage of the fact that Second Uncle Wang was not paying attention and slipped out again.
"Cousin, where are we going? So boring. ”
"Huh? So let's go read a book? ”
"Oh, no!"
"Then you will come with me to learn about herbs, right?"
"Ah, don't, cousin~"
Mu Qingwan also had a headache, this little cousin was too energetic, no wonder the second uncle had a headache.
"Then let's go to the picnic, there is a small orchard behind the Zhuangzi, let's go there and see what is interesting?"
"Hey, that sounds interesting, doesn't it? All right. It's better to be a sister. ”
“……”
Mu Qingwan took auspicious wishes, as well as Wang Chengwen, and Xu Qianhe went to the orchard together.
After a few months, Xu Qianhe has come out of the pain of losing his father, and now he is much more cheerful, listening to Xu Niangzi, in the past few months, Xu Qianhe has followed the people in Zhuangzi, and sometimes he will go to the field to help, his skin has tanned, but he has also become stronger, and his height has grown a lot, Mu Qingwan didn't recognize people all at once just now.
The orchard in the back mountain of Zhuangzi has many varieties, and there are seasonal fruits in almost every season, which is probably the interest of the original owner of Zhuangzi, anyway, it is cheaper for later people.
"Miss, there are a few loquat trees over there, I'll take you there."
"Loquat? Loquat is a good thing, let's go, let's take a look. ”
Loquat has the effect of curing the lungs and relieving cough, and can be made into loquat paste to eat, loquat fruit, loquat leaves, and even loquat root are treasures, but no one seems to have found this effect. It is not surprising that the medical level here is very low, the types of medicinal herbs are incomplete, and some existing common medicinal materials have not been fully studied. Therefore, it is not surprising that no one knows the function of these ready-made treasures of loquat.
Mu Qingwan's brain turned quickly, since this is the case, this may also be an opportunity. I have always had the idea of promoting medical skills in this dynasty, after all, I can benefit the national economy and people's livelihood through my own role, and it is not in vain that I have come here for a while.
A few loquat trees in the orchard are full of clusters of loquats, which hang yellow on the branches.
"Cousin, look at me."
Wang Chengwen hurriedly stepped on the branch and climbed to the tree, grabbed a handful of loquat and threw it under the tree, and after a while, a lot fell under the tree.
"Auspicious, pick up the basket."
Mu Qingwan asked Jixiang to bring the empty basket he was carrying, and picked up the loquat on the ground and put it into the basket, and the basket was almost full after a while.
"Chengwen, that's enough, I can't finish eating, you can come down first."
"Okay."
The loquat is very large, and it is also very sweet because it has not been picked until this time.
"You can try it, go back and make loquat cream. Auspicious, you send these back in the basket, and by the way, let the king steward pick all the loquat left in the orchard, and ask again, where else are there loquat nearby, if there is, no matter how many, just buy it back. ”
"Yes, miss." Auspicious response.
"Cousin, what is loquat ointment?" Wang Chengwen asked Mu Qingwan curiously with a loquat in one hand.
"Loquat paste is also a cough medicine, after the loquat is pitted, and then boil the loquat paste, Chuanbei powder and rock sugar together, you can get loquat paste. The method is relatively simple, but the effect is very good, and it has the effect of clearing the lungs and relieving cough. ”
"So amazing? Really? "Wang Chengwen doesn't believe it, it's uncomfortable to take medicine or something on weekdays, it's black, it's bitter, and the effect is very poor, this fruit is obviously eaten, how can it still be eaten as medicine?
"Of course it's true, if you don't believe it, you'll see when it's done." Mu Qingwan sold a small pass.
There are also Chuanbei, Chuanbei has the effect of moistening the lungs, relieving cough, dissolving phlegm and flattening asthma, or Mu Qingwan found it when she was in Biansai last year, and there are some Chuanbei in the medicinal materials that happened to be brought to Jiangnan this time. Chuanbei and loquat complement each other, and Chuanbei loquat paste is a very common cough medicine in modern times.
This year is a little late, the main season of loquat harvest has been missed, and the number of Chuanbei brought is also limited, so you can try it first and wait for next year to make it on a large scale.
After thinking about it, Mu Qingwan was also very happy about this unexpected joy, so when she was fine, she still had to go out more, maybe there would be an unexpected gain.
"Cousin! There's rabbits, haha. Wang Chengwen made a new discovery, and he happily went to chase the rabbit.
"Cousin, look at the road, don't run too far." Mu Qingwan was worried that her cousin was too reckless, so she couldn't help but admonish.
"Got it, it's okay."
……
In the afternoon, a group of people had a lot of fun, especially Wang Chengwen, who caught two rabbits, a pheasant, and a few wild eggs, so there were a few more dishes on the table at dinner.
The days in Shu County were very cheerful and short, and it was about to be the day to set off for the capital.
