Chapter 63: Medicinal Diet
Xiuqu began to serve by the side of the Jin Dynasty, doing some small things about needlework and female redness.
Yuzhu doesn't take care of the embroidery canal, but takes Yutong to Linyanxie every day to watch the people coming and going. There is a large bush of yellow locust cassia next to the bluestone road outside the Yanxie, it is the time of flowering, Yuzhu pulls Yutong to sit behind the yellow locust tree, and gives her a large box of hemp sugar.
Yutong whispered to her: "Look at you, you have a small nest on the back of your hand, and you still eat so many sweets." Be careful to look as chubby as Mama Li......"
Yuzhu sucked his fingers and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of being fat, it's so uncomfortable to not let myself eat delicious food for this." ”
The two girls whispered, but Yutong caught a glimpse of someone coming over on the bluestone road and pulled Yuzhu's sleeve. Yuzhu suddenly came to his senses, arched his ass into the yellow locust bushes, and came from between the cracks. It was the girl Yuxiang next to Aunt Song.
She walked through the bluestone corridor and turned to the left, as if in the direction of the outer courtyard.
Yuzhu whispered to Yutong: "Yuxiang has always served tea and poured water next to Aunt Song, and I don't know what to do in that direction, you put away the sugar, let's go over and have a look!" ”
Yutong whispered: "The eldest lady just asked us to watch here, if we leave, what if there is no one to guard here." If you delay Miss's business, you will be punished by Sister Bai Yun......"
Yuzhu explained to her: "We haven't seen anything here for a few days, and we finally found out that she went to the outer courtyard, so I can't go with her." It's useless to stay here. ”
Yutong snorted, not wanting to follow her. Yuzhu saw that everyone was about to go away, and his eyebrows were twisted: "Okay! You're watching here, I'm going alone! She picked up her sugar box and walked behind Yuxiang, Yutong shrank herself in a little and continued to look at the bluestone road.
Yuzhu randomly stuffed the sugar box into his sleeve and carefully followed behind Yuxiang, although Yuxiang walked towards the outer courtyard, she didn't leave the hanging flower door at all. Instead, he stopped at the rockery next to the Hanging Flower Gate and walked into a strange willow forest from the path.
Yuzhu followed in, his heart pounding, but there was a thief smile on his face. Yuxiang walked to this kind of place where no one came...... Maybe it's something you're here for!
Yuxiang in front stopped, and Yuzhu hurriedly hid in the strange willow forest next to him. I saw a man standing next to the rockery, wearing the uniform of a small maid, and he looked upright. Yuxiang and the man whispered, so far away that Yuzhu didn't hear anything. The strange willow forest was sparse, and she didn't dare to step forward at all. Seeing the man smile, Yuxiang was about to turn around and leave.
Yuzhu hurriedly withdrew from the strange willow forest, feeling a little disappointed, thinking that Yuxiang came out for something, it turned out to be a private meeting with the little girl......
But it's fun to tell the eldest lady about this.
Yuzhu went back and said to Jin Chao: "...... I think that Yuxiang is really, and he actually had a private meeting with the little guy. If someone catches him, he will definitely be beaten and driven out of the house. Miss, why don't we talk to Madame......"
Jin Chao pursed his lips and smiled: "It's small to beat Yuxiang out of the house, how do you explain that you saw this?" Said I asked you to look at the Linyan Pavilion, and you went to follow the girl in the Linyan Pavilion? ”
Yuzhu let out a sigh and stopped talking, even if she drove Yuxiang away, it was Qiaowei who was really powerful next to Aunt Song.
At noon, Jin Chao made a medicinal meal as usual and took it to his mother.
Ji asked Jin Chao if he had prepared a birthday gift for Gu Dezhao, and Jin Chao replied with a smile: "...... If I want to give my father a picture of pine and cypress, I have already asked Shopkeeper Luo to do it. ”
Jin Chao smiled and said nothing, his mother was very different from her in these aspects. She felt that since she completely trusted the shopkeeper Luo, she could rest assured that these things would be taken care of by him, and it was impossible for every business to be clean, and her grandmother managed the Ji family, so she didn't do a lot of beneficial and harmful things. 's mother is too benevolent and kind, so she will let Aunt Song press her.
While the two were talking, Mother Xu came in with gastrodia pigeon belly soup and served it in a purple casserole.
"You don't suffer hardships on weekdays, but you can't do it today, you have to accompany your mother to drink this soup." Ji personally served soup to the Jin Dynasty.
Jin Chao glanced at the clear yellow soup in the bowl, and shouted helplessly: "Mother......"
Ji smiled and said, "You didn't want to drink medicine when you were a child, so you relied on your grandmother." I'm not as soft-hearted as your grandmother. ”
Jin Chao smiled bitterly, when she was young, she was more afraid of hardship, and when she was sick, she had to be coaxed by her mother-in-law for a long time before she was willing to drink medicine, and she had to drink a mouthful of medicine and eat a candied fruit. Forget it, she just thinks it's a pill. Jin Chao could only pick up the bowl and pour it into it with a frown.
Mother Xu laughed on the side, "Miss, this is pigeon belly soup, not poison!" ”
Jin Chao's heart suddenly jumped, poison?
She hurriedly put down the bowl, took a long spoon and stirred the soup in the purple casserole, but only saw the gastrodia and pigeons in it, and some garnished wolfberries. Jin Chao asked Xu's mother: "You said that my mother's medicinal diet is full of medicinal herbs, why didn't I see it?" ”
Mother Xu was a little puzzled, and she didn't know why the eldest lady asked: "These medicinal materials can't be eaten, and they must be fished out before they come out of the pot." ”
Jin Chao stood up and asked again: "You said that my mother's food and clothing have been checked, but I don't know if these medicinal materials have been checked?" ”
Mother Xu was a little stunned: "Are you suspicious...... These medicinal materials are all sent by Dr. Liu, and the slaves and maids usually use them, just grab one or two handfuls from them, there should be no problem. ”
Ji asked Jin Chao to sit down: "Don't worry, what can be the problem...... Will Dr. Liu poison me? ”
Jin Chao didn't know how to explain it to his mother, so after thinking about it, he told Ji about Caifu going to see Ziling. Of course, she was not afraid that Dr. Liu would poison her, she was only afraid that Aunt Song would do something in it. Mother Xu listened to it and said, "...... The medicine was wrapped in Qinglian Lane, and Dr. Liu asked the medicine boy to send it. The person who went back took the medicine and sent it to the Slope Garden. If any poison is added to it, it should be visible......"
Jin Chao said coldly: "I'm afraid that they will be confused with medicine, and they can't prevent it." ”
Mother Xu suddenly became cautious, and hurriedly asked the girl to bring the rest of the medicine. Wrapped in oiled paper, it is full of sun-dried herb tubers and other materials. They don't know medicinal materials, so naturally they can't see anything. There was no need for Jin Chao's orders, Xu's mother hurriedly went to invite Dr. Liu over.
Jin Chao found Moyu over, "...... In the Xiexiao Courtyard, how many people can access Madame's medicine? ”
Mo Yu immediately knelt on the ground and replied, "Miss, the only people in the Xixiao Courtyard who can access Madame's medicine are me, Mo Xue, and Mother Xu. We don't dare to let others touch these things! ”
Jin Chao thought for a moment and asked, "What if someone sneaks into your room?" ”
Mo Yu shook his head and said, "The slaves' rooms are locked on weekdays, and the keys are carried with them. ”
In this way, it must not have been done by the descendants of the Slope Garden. Jin Chao helped Moyu up, "You don't have to rush first...... I'll talk about it when Dr. Liu comes. ”
Ji Shi lay on the big pillow, looked at Jin Chao and smiled, stretched out his thin hand to hold her: "My Jin Chao is not in a hurry, if there is really any problem, you will not need this medicine in the future." "Let her sit next to her first.
Jin Chao smelled a faint medicinal fragrance on his mother's body, looked at her skinny hand, and sighed softly.
An hour later, Xu's mother came back with Dr. Liu. Jin Chao took the medicine and went to see him in the flower hall.
Dr. Liu looked at the medicine wrapped in oil paper, and then opened it with his fingers to look at it carefully, and his face suddenly changed greatly. He took out a tuber-shaped thing from the medicine, took a deep breath, and said to Jin Chao, "Miss, this thing is rhubarb. ”
Jin Chao saw that his face was very ugly, and asked in a low voice: "Is this ...... But what kind of poison? ”
Lord Liu shook his head: "Rhubarb has the effects of attacking stagnation, purging fire and cooling blood, dispelling stasis and detoxifying. It is often used for symptoms such as stagnation, diarrhea, and heat, and is a cold medicine, and the medicine is very violent. Madame's illness is weak, with a weak spleen and a cold stomach. Rhubarb should never be taken, the herbs are yin and yang, if you take it for a long time...... Your life will be at risk! ”
No wonder my mother's illness couldn't be cured!
Xu's mother asked, "Could it be that you accidentally caught the wrong medicine when you grabbed it?" ”
Doctor Liu shook his head: "The old man personally prescribed the medicine and grabbed the medicine, and he personally wrapped it and sent it to the house, so it is impossible to make a mistake!" ”
Jin Chao naturally trusted Doctor Liu, and he didn't need to harm Ji's family. Even if Dr. Liu really caught the wrong medicine, it was impossible to catch the wrong medicine all the time, it could only be deliberately done by someone. She continued, "When did you start sending this tonic you prescribed?" ”
Dr. Liu thought for a while and said, "After Mrs. Yomo was sick for a month, I prescribed a tonic prescription and sent it. ”
That is to say, my mother has been using rhubarb intermittently for more than half a year!
Caifu sent Dr. Liu away, and Xu's mother whispered to Jin Chao: "Miss, I suspect that the people over there have done something wrong......
Jin Chao listened thoughtfully.
In her previous life, her mother died so miserably...... Could it also be because of the use of rhubarb? And now because of himself, the rhubarb used by his mother has decreased sharply, and his body has not deteriorated to that extent.
Who put this rhubarb? Isn't it Aunt Song?
If it weren't for Dr. Liu's side, it wouldn't be someone from the Oblique Courtyard...... Jin Chao suddenly remembered what Yuzhu said, Yuxiang and a man who looked like a small guy had a private meeting in the strange willow forest.
Who's that little guy? RS
