Chapter 50

"Hey, ma'am, stop. Although the Four Gentlemen's soup can't be eaten, I have some medicinal recipes. Japonica rice is flat in nature and sweet in taste, which can nourish the middle and Qi. Beef is flat in nature and sweet in taste, good for qi and blood, nourishing the spleen and stomach, and strengthening the muscles and bones. Function. The famous doctor "Bielu" said: Beef Anzhong Yiqi, nourishes the spleen and stomach. "Han's Yitong" also said: Yellow beef, tonifying qi, has the same function as Mianhuangqi. It shows the power of beef to invigorate qi, so those with qi deficiency It is advisable to eat it often. Chicken is warm in nature and sweet in taste. It has the effects of warming the middle, replenishing qi, nourishing essence and nourishing blood. Regardless of qi deficiency, blood deficiency, or kidney deficiency, it is suitable for eating. For people with qi deficiency, you can use Astragalus stew , can increase the curative effect of invigorating qi. Avoid spicy food, because it forces body fluid to leak out, and worry about its more sad qi and yin; No. Alcohol tends to accumulate dampness and heat, consumes qi and hurts yin, so it should be forbidden. I will also prescribe a Zhigancao soup for you. Although it is not as effective as Sijunzi Decoction, it can also slowly relieve your disease. After all, this disease Ah, it's been too long." The doctor sighed, wrote down the prescription and asked him to go to the front hall to fill it.

Liu Jing listened very seriously, but felt very sad in his heart, it was his own fault, he didn't bring his mother to see a doctor earlier, and now... an old man's eye sockets turned red.

The drug-grabbing boy took five patches of medicine for Liu Jing, and told him to decoct it thickly, take one dose a day, and take it warm.Liu Jing paid one tael of silver, and took Liu Huangshi out of Huichuntang.

Seeing Liu Jing bowing his head and blaming himself, Liu Huangshi felt very sad, and felt sorry for the medicine money: "Boss, how much money did you spend this time?"

"Mother, don't think too much about these things. Let's go and have a look and buy some meat to make up for you." Liu Jing changed the subject and didn't want to say more.

"Where do you want to spend money on me who has half stepped into the coffin? Xiu'er, Liu Jing told me to process wild game and sell it by myself. The boss didn't explain the specific regulations. Tell me now. , It’s also good for us to buy some materials and go back.”

Hongxiu talked about her thoughts, and Liu Huang frowned when she learned that she was going to make fried chicken. She thought it was a waste of time, and she knew how to make braised pork when she was in the boudoir.Many people in this town mostly boil meat in white water, unlike those in Beijing who eat all over the place, this is a good idea.

Liu Huangshi is also a vigorous and decisive person. After thinking about the materials, he took them to the market to sell them.At this time, the auxiliary materials are very cheap, such as Sanjiao, which only sells for three Wen for two catties, so Liu Huang's purchases are very straightforward.

After strolling around the market, they also gained a lot.Of course, the wallet is also deflated a lot.Liu Jing gave the rest of the money to Hongxiu, and asked her to buy paper and pens in the study, it was really not easy to go in with these things by herself.People in ancient times respected scholars very much, and they were even more devout towards books. The people who came and went in the bookstore were not white men, let alone carrying large and small bags inside.Hongxiu took over the job, bought some pens and paper, and went out.

Knowing from Liu Jing that Hongxiu wants to send Liu Yu to school or is a husband with Da Zhuang, Liu Huang's heart is really grateful.Her father was born in Juren, and she also knows that only by studying can she be successful, and she will not be stuck in a small village as a mud leg.Liu Yu's talent is good, and I have taught him to read some characters, and he will soon be able to.A woman's ignorance is virtue, and I don't know much about it.But money is a big problem. Shu Xiu, who spends two taels of silver every year, is not something ordinary people dare to spend.Now Hongxiu proposes to send Liu Yu to school. Although she proposed to sell food and sell money, how can she make up for it next month? Hongxiu must secretly subsidize it. Yes, Mrs. Liu Huang will not object to sending Liu Yu to school.Even if he died from taking no medicine, he would be able to meet the two tigers with a face when he went underground.

It was getting dark, and Hongxiu also returned home.After eating hastily, Liu Huangshi drank the medicine and beckoned Hongxiu to come to her room.

"Xiu'er, I heard you want Brother Yu to go to school?"

Hongxiu glanced at Liu Huangshi, looked at her smiling face, and nodded for some reason.

"Xiu'er, you are a sensible child. Let me tell you the truth, there is not much money in the family. I know that you have thought about this matter well. Anyway, you helped us advance the money today. I will definitely pay you back, and our old Liu family can't do anything like taking the money of a daughter-in-law." Seeing Hongxiu's frown, Liu Huang went on to say, "Don't say that you are married, these are nothing, The family has been living like this for a long time. To put it bluntly, when a woman gets married, the first thing that matters is her son, and then the dowry. We will pay back what we owe. This is an IOU written by me. You accept it. It will be very difficult to pay you back tomorrow, but I will try my best to pay you back slowly.” Liu Huang took out the IOU, which said that she owed Hongxiu four taels of silver.

"Mother, one year's training is only two taels, what's the matter?"

"Don't think that I don't know where the money for today's doctor's visit came from. Well, you will cook the food from now on, and I will take care of the rest. You also have to copy books, so how can you have time to do so much work. I know You are thinking about your family, you must be thinking about buying more paper and copying an extra copy for Liu Yu when copying books, I understand, otherwise, according to your craftsmanship, you can earn no more than this if you embroider well."

Hongxiu was a little embarrassed, but it was really a beautiful misunderstanding, wasn't it.Hongxiu had no choice but to acquiesce.After talking with Liu Huangshi again, he went back to the house.

After this night, Hongxiu felt that Liu Huangshi was a good person, unambiguous in major matters, and a person who had seen the world, and would not block the child's way just because he did not owe favors.She is also a person who forgets to eat but not to drink. Seeing that Liu Huang's illness is so serious, she secretly put a drop of diluted space water into the water tank.Hongxiu is not as straightforward as at home, but in fact, she still hasn't fully integrated into the Liu family.The mother's family is still different from the mother-in-law's family.

Back in the house, Hongxiu honestly explained about the IOU that Liu Huangshi gave herself, and then tore up the IOU in front of Liu Jing, "Our family doesn't talk about each other. I will send Liu Yu to school It's also selfish, the Liu family has to live well so I can live well..."

Liu Jing was startled by Hongxiu's act of tearing up the IOU. After a long time, she hugged Hongxiu tightly...
