Volume 1 Love and Sincerity Chapter 14 The heart warms the sheep, and the family is happy

patting the dirt on his hands, and was about to go back to the house, Xue came out crying, "Ou Niangzi, take a look at the head of the house, the head of the house is unconscious." ”

Ou Suying raised his feet and went into the living room to check, Nuan Sheng was sitting on the ground with Dao Dazhi in his arms. There was no blood on the ground, and it was not broken, so it was probably knocked out by a kick from the knife.

"This body is so weak." Ou Suying muttered. "Carry the bed in the room and lie down, and go to ask for Doctor Meng."

When Doctor Xu was there, Doctor Meng often came to steal the teacher, and the road was familiar and came quickly, squinting his eyes and checking the pulse.

Ou Suying was very skeptical about the medical skills of this dynasty, and was only more convinced of the medical skills of Xu Yijiang.

"Doctor Meng, can you familiarize yourself with medical books such as "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", "Dietary Therapy Materia Medica", "Shennong's Materia Medica", "Treatise on Warmth" and other medical books?"

Ou Suying recalled some of the TCM terms mentioned by her TCM beautician when she chatted with her, and asked.

Doctor Meng replied in surprise, "Do you read medical books?" At that time, most people regarded doctors as despised, and rarely wrote them, and even fewer people read such books. I was fortunate enough to listen to some of the herbs in the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" and "Shennong's Materia Medica", but I had never heard of the others. I don't know much about reading and writing, and I don't read many medical books, so I can't compare to Xu Yijiang's knowledge. ”

Speaking of Xu Yijiang, Ou Suying said, "I have a few books of Xu Yijiang, "The Muscle and Bone Sutra", "The Chest and Abdomen Internal Scripture", "Medicine and Poison", have you read it?" ”

"I haven't had the pleasure of reading it yet, I wonder if Ou Niangzi is willing to borrow it?"

"You understand?" Doesn't it mean that there is not much literacy? I flipped through it, and I recognized the words, and I didn't understand the meaning.

"If there is something you don't understand, how about asking Ou Niangzi again?"

Ou Suying's heart was cold, and her face was sad.

"Seriously, you don't understand, and I don't necessarily understand. What happened to my husband's injury? ”

"It's okay, the pulse seems to be better than before, the meridians in the head are smooth, I won't give you any herbs, you should be able to wake up at night." Cook some vegetables and meat for him to eat, and keep them well. ”

"Thanks, go slowly."

Ou Suying thought to herself, supplementing nutrition, this is really common in ancient and modern times, I don't expect you to see anything, there is no CT, there is no contrast agent, and you still expect to be optimistic about the problem of brain damage?

The medical craftsman walked to the door with his medical bag and came back, "Ou Niangzi, can you borrow me those books you said?" The young ones are not talented, and their medical skills are shallow, so they want to learn more medical skills and help more injured and sick people."

There is no medical skill, but it is very medically virtuous!

Ou Suying admired Meng Yijiang a little more.

Without systematic medical school teaching, it is understandable that medical skills are poor.

"Please come with me, Doctor Meng," Ou Suying took him to Doctor Xu's room and gave him a stack of more than a dozen scrolls of wooden tablets left by Doctor Xu.

"Don't break it, give it back to me when you're done."

At dusk, Yang Mu and Shi Sheng came back with a cart of goods. heard about the daytime knife ceremony, cursed the knife ceremony non-stop, and praised Ou Suying, "Thanks to Ou Niangzi's cleverness." ”

"This is also my family's business, you are polite."

"Fortunately, the head of the family is okay and woke up, otherwise I would not be worthy of the entrustment of the old master of the dead family."

"Sheep, you really make me admire."

Ou Suying said from the bottom of her heart that it is really admirable to be able to be so righteous and honestly help the old housekeeper take care of the idiot.

"What are you talking about, that, open the meal, I'll let Mrs. Yuan and them bring the rice."

The sheep shyly changed the subject and ran away.

Tonight's meal is very rich, Mrs. Yuan brought a small stove for boiling medicine into the house, and there was a double-eared open-mouthed porcelain jar on the stove, but the porcelain jar was not cooking medicine, but chicken soup, and the fragrant chicken soup was fluttering, and the lid was popping. Mrs. Yuan took out the chicken pieces and put them on a plate for the host's family to eat. I stuffed some green leaves into the chicken broth.

Yang Gu looked at this method and said with a smile, "This method is not bad, and the meat and coriander leaves are also fragrant." ”

"This is not something I came up with, it was an idea that Ou Niangzi came up with, and she gave it a name, called 'Chicken Soup Hot Pot'."

"Hahaha, that's a fitting name."

"Don't just be busy talking, eat" Ou Suying clipped a piece of chicken to the sheep, and the sheep did not eat it himself, but gave it to Dao Dazhi again.

There was still some rabbit meat left over at noon, and it was hot at this time, and Grandma Zhao put it on a plate.

"This is specially reserved for you, Grandpa Yang, you can taste it."

The sheep does not eat, "the food of the main family is inseparable." Eat with the head of the house. ”

"You just eat, it's not delicious when it's cold, and they all eat it in the warm mountains at noon."

At noon, Ou Suying was so happy that she had to wait for Nuan Sheng Xue and the other five to eat with her, and the rabbit meat that had just come out of the pot was also eaten together. Gao Shan has a large amount of rice, if it weren't for Ou Suying's special intention to leave some rabbit meat, it is estimated that the bones have been gnawed by Gao Shan.

"What? How can a cheap slave be so presumptuous! ”

When the sheep heard that the servant and the master were at the same table at noon, and had eaten the rabbit meat that he had specially collected, he was furious.

When he first came here, Ou Suying didn't know the etiquette of the Han Dynasty and made some jokes. After studying with Xun Waifu for a few days, I know a little bit about the hierarchy and daily etiquette of the Han Dynasty.

The master and servant have different tables, and the master eats the meal first, and the servant eats later. The master eats in the main hall, and the servant eats in the servant's room or back kitchen, in short, just find a place where the master does not hate it.

In some of the fragmentary costume dramas that I have watched with Ou Suying, people kowtow and kneel at every turn, which is not so exaggerated here. Maybe it's because Banyang is a remote place, not a place like the palace in the TV series, and there are not so many rules.

Even on formal occasions, when guests come to visit, the elders and elders just stand and bow. Usually meet and bow your hand, or bow your head. The servants are not always interested in saluting the master, but they must be respectful and listen to the master's orders, otherwise they will be punished or dismissed and expelled by the master. If a contract is signed or sold as a slave, the master's family has the right to buy, sell, transfer, and so on, depending on the content of the contract.

In addition to these rules and etiquette, Ou Suying was even more surprised that there were no stools and chairs here.

People sit on the ground, everyone is used to kneeling, Ou Suying is uncomfortable to kneel and sit, but the table is very low and cannot be equipped with stools. However, Ou Suying still asked Shi Sheng and Gao Shan to improve the wooden pavilion in the west courtyard according to their own needs, imitating the appearance of the pavilion in their own community park, and made a fenced bench with a backrest.

Yang Gu has read some books, and he prefers some of the schools of Confucianism. It is not difficult to understand the anger of the sheep at this time.

"Oh, don't be so angry, I'm young, I'm not afraid to be angry."

Ou Suying soothed, "What kind of cheap slave master? Without you being so loyal, where would my husband and I still be our masters? I was bullied by the kind of person who was the knife gift. Sheep, look at our family, there are few people, the husband is stupid, where can you take care of so many rules, everyone is right with Lele. You are as old as my grandfather, and I have great respect for you, and I have never treated you as an ordinary person. ”

Thinking of Dean Hu Changshui, who raised him, Ou Suying was very sad.

I didn't even see the dean for the last time, I was sick at the time, and I couldn't even go to the dean's funeral, and I didn't know what to do at that time.

Listening to Ou Suying's words, Yang Mu was so moved that he touched his tears.

"Thank you, Mrs. Ou. The ancestor of the family has kindness to me, and you treat me more kindly, and I relied on the yin virtue of my ancestors to meet such a good master. I was worried that Ou Niangzi had different intentions and couldn't treat the head of the family well. Now I can rest assured that I will hand over the knife family to you. ”

"What can you pay or not, this is your home, and it is also my home."

Ou Suying said.

went back to the west courtyard to sleep, and when Nuan Sheng saw that there was no one, he secretly congratulated Ou Suying.

"The master is overjoyed, he recovered the sheep and became the head of this knife family."

"What is there to congratulate, I just treat people with sincerity" Ou Suying said as she undressed, "You are all my family, I can't see others bullying me." ”

"The owner is still so kind, but he is more intelligent," Nuan Sheng said.

"If you're really not used to calling me Suying, you can just call Ou Niangzi like them. I still can't get used to hearing you call me master, you know, I never treated you like a slave. ”

"Come on, Ou Niangzi" Nuan Sheng smiled and helped Ou Suying spread out the quilt.

"What do you think of Chang'an?"

"It's an imperial city, and I heard it's a very rich place."

"How rich?"

"This, this, I can't tell."

"So he was happy in the wine, and the Son of Heaven thought about it, as if he were dying, and said, 'Huh! This is a great luxury. I listen to the rest of the time, abandon the sun with nothing, follow the way of heaven to kill, and rest here. I am afraid that Ye Mili will not return, so I will start a business for my heirsΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Ou Suying unconsciously read the sentence in "Shanglin Fu".

The next day, Ou Suying installed the toilet in her heart!

After Ou Suying's repeated explanations, the carpenter finally made the toilet. When Shi Sheng pulled the cart and pulled the finished toilet back, Yang Ji and the others were surprised. Ou Suying looked at the wooden toilet and began to inspect the goods, and the curved surfaces of various interface sections were polished very smooth, and the efforts of the past two days have not been in vain.

Ou Suying decisively asked Shi Sheng and Gao Shan to fill in the thatched toilet on the north wall of the backyard and convert it into a new toilet of their choice. A small, clean, bright house with windows and ventilation, a toilet bowl inside, and a bamboo pipe connection can drain the excrement and sewage to the vegetable garden far outside the wall.

"I'll show you how, it's okay to sit on it and, every time you use it, use this small bucket to flush it, you see, the water is washed away, and what remains in this little eye is clean water, not smelly."

Originally, Ou Suying's biggest concern was that this crooked pipe was not smooth, but now it seems that the worry is superfluous. The carpenter's craft is good.

The crowd took turns to visit the new toilet and were amazed.

"Ou Niangzi, you are too smart".

Ou Suying was a little embarrassed to be praised, "Fur, fur, hehe, it should be more convenient, it seems that it is to use water pressure or atmospheric pressure, it can be made automatic, there is a button that can be flushed clean with one press, I won't get it." Ou Suying thought about it for a long time, but couldn't understand what the automatic flushing of modern toilet buttons was all about, so she had to give up this function.

Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Ou Suying knew that she had said too much, "When my mouth is scooped, don't be a official, that's it, this is good, hahaha." Hiding the embarrassment, Ou Suying changed the topic and said, ""Lu's Spring and Autumn Period" has a saying, 'The beauty of things, the osmanthus of ostentation', Gao Shan, you go to get an osmanthus tree and plant it here, the osmanthus is more fragrant." ”

"Okay"

Gao Shan agreed very happily, but he searched all over the city and outside the city, but he didn't find the laurel tree that Ou Suying said had small yellow flowers and tasted very fragrant. I only cut some branches of spring flowers, "although they are just ordinary branches now, when they come next spring, the whole vine will be full of yellow spring flowers, which is very beautiful."

"Well, I know, thank you, Takayama."

Although it was not the expected flower tree, Ou Suying knew that Takayama had done his best.
