Chapter 147 Dragon Boat Festival
The Dragon Boat Festival is here in the blink of an eye.

Ji Qing has been working overtime at the Yamen with the officials from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War these days. He has not been home for several days. If it were not because the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, he would probably have to wear a sordid suit when the court meeting was held in two days. He took off his official uniform and went to see the Holy Emperor.

"Ah~"

Walking in the busy market, Ji Qing didn't have much thought to look around and feel the lively atmosphere of the market. Finally, he thought of his children. Before going back, he went to the snack shop and bought a pack of sesame oil mung bean cake.

The scent of the sesame oil couldn't even be contained by the oil paper. Ji Qing smelled the smell and couldn't help imagining the cute looks of the two young children eating snacks.

Walking into the alley where my home is located, the bustle behind me is completely blocked out from the alley, and the fragrance of gardenias wafts in the cool alley.

After returning home, his wife Wang opened the door and looked at Ji Qing in surprise, then looked at Ji Qing's thin and haggard face, and quickly pulled him back into the house, preparing to boil water for him to clean himself.

"Sister Yue caught a cold two days ago. The doctor prescribed medicine and I have been drinking it for the past few days. At this time, I am afraid that I am sleepy again and fell asleep. Brother An is studying in the small study. He is waiting for the official to take the exam when he is free. Check out his recent studies."

Mrs. Wang dried Ji Qing's hair with a wide cotton and linen cloth, and talked about what happened recently. When she heard that her daughter had caught a cold and fell ill, Ji Qing couldn't help but asked nervously.

After learning that there was nothing serious, Ji Qing felt slightly relieved, and then said: "Wait a few days and then go find a doctor to see Sister Yue and prescribe some medicine to replenish your body. We are here." There are also some medicinal materials that were given to me earlier. Ask the doctor if you can use them later..."

Children are difficult to raise. Ji Qing is the only child raised by his mother. When he was a child, many of his brothers and sisters died of illness.

"You take the money here first."

Ji Qing took out a few fifty-tael banknotes from his pocket, which shocked Wang.

"Official?"

"It's okay, don't tell anyone else."

Ji Qing put the banknote in Wang's hand and said: "An Ge'er's wife is also very capable. When we first came to be apprentices, our family didn't have much to offer as apprentices. Taking advantage of this holiday, you can It’s time to buy some things to supply Master.”

"it is good……"

Mrs. Wang clutched the banknote in her hand tightly. Yao Lin had to spend money everywhere, even pouring night incense. She really couldn't bear to throw away the banknote she got from her husband.

Now her husband-in-law didn't know where he got the money, but she knew her husband-in-law was cautious, so she didn't ask any more questions.

"A few days ago, Shilang Chen's family, which we were friends with before, sent someone over to give our family some festive gifts.

The steward asked us if we wanted to buy land. He said that the Chen family had acquired some land outside the city, but because it was scattered, some of the land could not be grouped together to make a village. He asked if our family wanted to buy some land and said it would be sold cheaper. "

Originally, if it weren't for the money that Ji Qing suddenly gave her, Wang might not have considered it, but now that she has the extra money, and besides, this is Yao Lin. If you can buy a property nearby, no fool would do it!
Ji Qing did not hear his wife's plan clearly. He only heard Chen Shilang and heard the Chen family mentioned in his wife's words, and he knew that this was the Chen family's intention to benefit him.

"Okay, I'm taking a break these days, so I'll be with you about buying the land."

"Cough cough cough cough!"

Mei Qian, who had just finished her work, walked back. Before she got home, she saw "smoke" coming out of the cave where she was.

"Ahhh! My home!"

Mei Qian immediately yelled and rushed over. Before she could see the fire, she was hit by the white smoke that floated far away, causing her to cough for a long time.

"Well?"

After taking a puff of the white smoke, Mei Qian suddenly felt that the smell was somewhat familiar.

"Girl, why did you come back at noon today?"

Seeing Ling Jiao walking out of the white smoke with a scarf on her face, Mei Qian asked, "This smoke is you..."

"Mugwort, fumigation of moxa. Isn't it almost the Dragon Boat Festival? Everyone went to the mountains to cut moxa. Later, Dr. Xu said that it was just right to smoke moxa. He fumigated the inside and outside of the residence to eliminate insects and evil spirits. I felt very happy when I heard that. Not bad, just come back and give it a try.”

"Ah! There is a doctor here!" Mei Qian's eyes lit up when she heard this. This time, this behavior was not organized by Mei Qian and others, but suggested by the doctor.

Some people obey, and some people are too lazy to do it, but it doesn't matter.

Mei Qian and Wang He didn't think about the Dragon Boat Festival or about mugwort or mugwort, but Mei Qian knew that mugwort was a good thing.

Although it is not a decathlon, this thing is currently common. If used properly, it is a good thing for preventing and treating some diseases and maintaining health.

The main function of fumigating mugwort in the room is to eliminate inflammation and sterilization. After fumigation, it can eliminate a variety of pathogenic bacteria, thereby reducing the harm to human health.

Mei Qian once heard from colleagues that they would use mugwort to fumigate their rooms in spring and summer in their hometown in the countryside, which can effectively repel mosquitoes and odors.

In some seasons where epidemics are high, fumigation of mugwort can also be used for effective prevention and control, but it is not suitable for families with pregnant women.

Suddenly being reminded of the past memory, Mei Qian suddenly felt that it was really good to have a doctor, and he could take the initiative to remind him at this time.

So Mei Qian asked Ling Jiao to take him to find the doctor she was talking about, and then took him to see Wang He.

In the end, Mei Qian didn't expect that it would be the first time she resigned so quickly, and when she came back from killing a carbine, Wang He was soaking his feet in his cave.

Mei Qian: "..."

"It's good to soak your feet more."

Doctor Xu, who was following Mei Qian, suddenly spoke.

Wang He: "..."

He was trying to lighten the atmosphere, but what he said suddenly made the atmosphere even more awkward.

"Ahem, please go out for a moment. I will be here later."

Wang He said this with a serious face and his feet in the basin with a strange sense of joy. Mei Qian quickly turned her head and said yes, then snickered and pulled Doctor Xu out.

After Wang He had sorted things out, he called Mei Qian and the others in. Mei Qian then told Dr. Xu how he had used the mugwort from the Dragon Boat Festival to smoke moxa on everyone.

"Indeed, many people in Zuixing County have this habit, but this year's incident may have made many people forget about it."

Wang He also remembered that at this time in the past, this faint scent of mugwort would come from many places in the county. Occasionally, some confused people would burn it improperly, and it would burn to the next door house. In the end, they would have to go to court for compensation. superior.

"Conditions in the mountains are rudimentary and there are too many snakes and insects. Regular steaming and fumigation of mugwort can also prevent people from being harmed by snakes and insects." When Dr. Xu said this, Mei Qian looked at him curiously and asked, "What does Dr. Xu want?" Did we tell the people that we should do these things regularly?”

"Yes, Your Majesty arranged for the people to move together, then renovated the latrines, sent people to clean the surroundings every day, and organized everyone to drink heated water.

Although Xu couldn't tell the specific purpose of this, he could tell that everything the adults did was for the health of the people. Recently, I heard someone say that they felt very refreshed recently. "

"Doctor Xu cares about the people, and Mei Qian admires him."

Before Wang He could speak, Mei Qian spoke first. She stood behind Xu Xu and met Wang He's eyes.

When Wang He saw Mei Qian smile slightly, he stopped stopping him and waited for the next step, then heard Mei Qian continue: "Sir, we are short of talents like you, please ask Dr. Xu to help us~"

Mei Qian: We are looking for the right person to work every day.

Li Baizhou: Don’t you plan to continue looking for me?
Mei Qian: Haha.

XXX: Look for it, and you might find it.

Mei Qian: I’m busy, so don’t ask
