Chapter Ninety-One: The Ointment
Lu Man thought about it, he didn't work in vain this afternoon, he didn't worry in vain, he not only saved two lives, but also earned so many good things, and hugged a big thick leg. She intuitively felt that Xie Laoguo and Xie Shizi should be honest and affectionate people, and would not take other people's help for granted like many wealthy nobles.
Mama Wang was so happy that she recited the Buddha, and several girls were also so happy that they grinned so much, and instructed the rough mother-in-law to carefully carry the gifts to the backyard warehouse.
A few people were busy when they heard Jiang Jiu's voice coming in from outside the courtyard gate, "Third sister-in-law, did you really save Brother Xie's daughter-in-law and son?" ”
The little brother and sister ran with a little blushing face, and the flag commander followed with his long tongue sticking out.
Lu Man smiled, "I can't say that I saved it, I just helped a little." He pulled Jiang Jiu into his arms and said, "I got so many good satin, make beautiful clothes for Xiao Jiu'er." As he spoke, he pointed to a piece of brocade and a soft satin left.
By this time, it was already dusk, and the lanterns in the courtyard were lit up. Those satin shine under the light, and they glowed with five colors.
Jiang Jiu's eyes were so happy that he smiled, pulled Lu Man's skirt and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law." ”
Jiang Zhankui noticed the post in Lu Man's hand and asked, "Is the third sister-in-law going to Xie's house as a guest?" ”
Lu Man nodded and said, "Well, the day after tomorrow is the child's third banquet." Seeing the envious expressions of the little brother and sister, he smiled again, "Let's go together that day." "It was August 30, and Jiang Zhankui was resting.
These two are still children, and they don't need to be posted, and they can be taken with them themselves.
The two children hardly went out as a visitor, but they still went to Xie's house, which they liked, and they were even happier when they listened.
Jiang Jiu asked excitedly, "Third sister-in-law, can I wear new clothes made of this material to be a guest?" ”
Lu Man shook his head and said with a smile, "Why is it good to wear the materials sent by his family to his house as a guest immediately." I've got other ingredients, and I'll give you a new style to make sure it looks good. ”
She thought about the TV she had watched in her previous life, and thought about the clothing characteristics of this dynasty, so she went back to the house and drew a children's dress. Let Wang's mother cut and Liu Ya do it. A few people discussed how to match the color again, and asked them to do it tomorrow and go to the little girl in Xie Mansion to wear it the day after tomorrow.
Lu Man doesn't know how to design, but in his previous life, he liked comics and learned it during the holidays, so it's good to draw sketches. She knew that adults were too maverick to dress badly, but it didn't matter if the little girl was a little weird.
Now it's too late to embroider, it's too fancy to use jacquard satin, and it's too old-fashioned to use plain satin, so I decided to use plain jacquard brocade to make a blouse, vermilion soft silk to make a long skirt, and then use this soft silk to make a pressure collar. The top is slightly shorter, the skirt should be fluffy, and the reason why soft silk is chosen as a skirt is also because its pendant is not as good as satin, and it has a fluffy feeling. Then make a big bow with tassels hanging diagonally on the neckline, a bit of hanbok exoticism, and it won't look too thin for the little girl.
As soon as he saw the clothes on the paper, Jiang Jiu liked it, and his face was so red with excitement. Hurriedly roared, "Oh, it's so beautiful, Jiu'er can't wait to wear it." ”
It made everyone laugh.
Lu Man asked Jiang Zhankui again, "Does the eighth master want to make new clothes?" ”
Jiang Zhankui shook his head and said, "I have new clothes, so I don't need to make another one." ”
The house has never deducted the food and clothing of these two brothers and sisters, they all have what the master should have, and of course there are a lot of new clothes.
In fact, Lu Man also wanted to make a few one-piece baby clothes for that little baby that were not available in this era, and he also bragged to Grandma Xie when he was in the fetal position. But thinking that the ancients liked to wrap babies in small peppers, they couldn't use it, and the time was short, and they couldn't do much. In the future, make a few more clothes to wear after three months, and wait until the child is full moon.
The two siblings still want to live here, but Lu Man didn't agree, she still has important things to do. He said that they were busy making clothes for the little girl, and they had no time.
When the little girl heard this reason, she hurriedly took her little brother away, for fear that she would delay them in making clothes for herself.
Sending the little brother and sister away, Mama Wang and Liu Ya began to find materials for the little girl to tailor clothes, and Lu Man led Lu Aya to the west wing of the backyard to check the medicinal materials stored these days. She flipped through it, but fortunately, she had all the eleven flavors she needed. She wanted to make some gynecological anti-inflammatory plasters and bring them to Grandma Xie on the day of washing.
In ancient times, when giving birth to a child, no matter how old the child was, he would not cut it sideways or anything, and it was hard when he was born, which was easy to cause perineal damage. In severe cases, several wounds will be torn out, which will not heal easily. The mother's sins also affect the future life of the couple. There is a recipe in the book of the He family doctor, making a plaster can help the perineum heal quickly and can also reduce the pain of the mother. She also knew that the two flavors of Chinese medicine in her previous life had an effect on diluting and relieving pain, and she also added it.
How to make plasters, there are brief instructions in the medical book, Lu Man also consulted Imperial Doctor Fu before, and he had heard some of them in his previous life. Although it was more time-consuming and time-consuming, the operation was relatively simple, and she thought she should do it.
She weighed the medicine according to the amount with a small scale, and asked Mrs. Huang, who was on duty today, to cut the medicine into small pieces, and then soak it in oil for later use.
The next morning, after Lu Man instructed Lu Aya what to do, he asked Tao'er and Uncle Gao to go outside to buy some plaster-making powder, rosin and other things, and then went to Heming Hall.
The eldest princess saw Lu Man coming, and pulled her to the west room with a smile, Lu Man guessed that there must be something that he didn't want the old colt to hear.
The mysterious appearance of the old lady made Lu Man laugh, and the old lady was really getting more and more cute.
The eldest princess said that Xie Fu also sent her a post, and the mother-in-law who sent the post praised Lu Man again, saying how grateful Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Xie were. Originally, the friendship between the two governments was average, and there was no need for her to support this scene. But now she has a request for Xie Guogong, and she feels that her daughter-in-law makes her very dignified, so she still decides to go. Moreover, he also sent someone to tell Xie Fu that he would let his own opera troupe go to the singing hall on the day of the washing, which was enough to give Xie Fu face......
After listening to the eldest princess's chatter, Lu Man probably knew about the festival of Jiang Xie and his family after brain supplementation.
The ancestors of the Jiang family and the ancestors of the Xie family are sworn brothers, and the two families can be said to be world friends. However, the relationship between Mr. Xie and Mr. Jiang is very bad, mainly because Mr. Xie looks down on Mr. Jiang as "like a woman", and often says things that poke Mr. Jiang's heart......
It turned out that the ancestor of the Jiang family was once so glorious, more than a hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Jiang family was one of the great heroes who assisted Chu Gaozong to overthrow the previous dynasty, and it was still the biggest one.
Because he was afraid that his merits would be high, the ancestor of the Jiang family strongly rejected Chu Gaozong's proposal to make him a king with a different surname, and only accepted a marquis, and later even resigned. Just in case, when he was alive, he presided over the division of the family, and divided the second son and the third son. He also took the two houses to Lingnan and Huzhou, thousands of miles away, respectively, and the younger generations also took root there. And only this one was left in the capital......
