Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Man Bao also occupied the stove in Imperial Doctor Liu's office. With the two stoves together, she lit the charcoal fire and carefully placed the steamed meat and meatballs on the shelf, closed the jar and waited.

She didn't eat her lunch, she was so hungry now that she just squatted in front of the stove and watched, and could take a sip of the heat.

When the water boils, you can hear the gurgling sound of the water in the jar, and then slowly, a scent slowly spreads out from the jar...

After steaming for a quarter of an hour, the aroma filled the whole room. The medical assistants were already sitting there and waiting. Even Imperial Physician Liu, who was drinking tea and waiting for food in his office, couldn't help but walk out with his hands behind his back. , After walking around the room for two times, he simply pulled up the stool and sat beside Zhou Man.

He asked, "This is made by your cook, using the recipe to the south of you?"

"My sister-in-law made this," Man Bao and he praised her sister-in-law, "My sister-in-law cooks the best food. I grew up eating the food she made, and I have never eaten better than my sister-in-law. something to eat."

Imperial Physician Liu said, "I also think what my mother makes is the best, but that's just my opinion."

Man Bao said: "This is not a favoritism. I still have five sisters-in-law, and none of them are as delicious as my sister-in-law, especially my second sister-in-law..."

Man Bao remembered the craftsmanship of the second sister-in-law and sighed: "My second sister-in-law is good at everything, it's the cooking skills... alas."

Imperial Physician Liu became slightly interested, mainly because the jar was bubbling up, and the aroma was constantly coming out of it, which really made people want to eat it.

Imperial Physician Liu swallowed his saliva unconsciously and asked, "How long will it take to steam?"

Man Bao wanted to eat more than he did, and pulled the stool closer to the stove, she said, "It will take a while, my sister-in-law said that it will be delicious only when it's hot."

While they were talking, there was a maid who brought their meals to the Tai Hospital.

Each person has a food box, the grades are different, and the dishes are also different.

Man Bao took the food box and immediately said: "It should be fine, open it quickly, open it quickly."

The three medical assistants on the side immediately stepped forward to help.

After a while, the two imperial doctors and three medical assistants sat down around the table. In front of everyone was their own meals, and in the middle was a bowl of steamed meat and a bowl of meatballs.

Man Bao first gave Imperial Doctor Liu a chopstick to steam the meat, and then said to the other three strong medical assistants: "Everyone, eat quickly."

Zhou Man was of a higher grade than them, so the three medical assistants gave in very politely, and let Man Bao move his chopsticks first.

Man Bao was also welcome, he took a large piece of steamed meat and put it on the rice, and the other three followed suit.

Imperial Physician Liu took a bite and couldn't help squinting his eyes. The mouth was soft and rotten, glutinous and fragrant. Imperial Physician Liu chewed it, then glanced at the bowl, and then took the time to eat one piece and then take another...

After eating and drinking, Imperial Physician Liu sat next to Man Bao and drank tea. He also politely invited her to drink the tea leaves he had collected. He smiled and said, "My mother's craftsmanship is very good."

It was only then that Man Bao remembered, yes, my sister-in-law is Li Zhong's mother, and she is indeed in-law with Imperial Physician Liu.

So she said, "Wait until Lizhong goes to pay you New Year's greetings, and I will ask my sister-in-law to bring you two bowls."

Imperial Physician Liu made a hypocritical excuse and then agreed, and then said to Man Bao, "Pork has the effect of nourishing deficiency and strengthening the body, nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, and enriching the skin. It is very suitable for those of us who are on night shifts to eat."

Man Bao glanced at Imperial Physician Liu, although he felt that what he said was wrong, after all, it is not good to eat meat when you are old, but he would not be unaware of this basic problem, so he nodded.

The two imperial physicians sat in the imperial hospital and waited for dark, and then continued to chat and stay in a daze while guarding the stove.

Man Bao felt in his sleeve, took out a purse, and opened it, which contained venison jerky.

Imperial Physician Liu thought for a while, and felt that it was already like this tonight, so he could just eat more, so he reached out to Zhou Man.

Man Bao gave him a piece of meat, ate a piece and asked, "Doctor Liu, don't you prepare some snacks for you on duty?"

Imperial Physician Liu said: "I will only prepare some snacks and beans to satisfy my hunger. I am not a child, so there is no need to prepare too many snacks."

Man Bao looked at the jerky he was holding in his hand.

Imperial Physician Liu paused and said, "It's okay to eat occasionally."

But after eating so many good things, he didn't want to return the salute, so he said, "We'll be on duty later, and I'll bring you something delicious."

Man Bao nodded again and again, "Then I'll wait."

Imperial Physician Liu said: "You can also bring some of this steamed meat and meatballs into the palace. You should always eat better on New Year's Eve, and there will be a palace banquet that night, so we must be more vigilant, so we can stay awake by eating."

Man Bao thought for a while and felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded in response.

The two stayed in the middle of the night until the night became cold, and then got up and went back to their hut to sleep. This time, Man Bao was not woken up in the middle of the night, and slept until dawn.

Imperial Physician Liu was also very satisfied with this, and said to Imperial Physician Lu who came to take over: "There is no patient, you should rest earlier tonight."

Imperial Physician Lu said, "It's hard work with Imperial Physician Liu... and Imperial Physician Zhou."

Zhou Man and Imperial Physician Liu returned a salute, and politely replied that it was not hard, and then went out of the palace with their own things.

Imperial Doctor Liu saw the carriage coming to pick up Zhou Man at the gate of the palace, waved to her and smiled, "See you tomorrow."

Man Bao nodded, "See you tomorrow."

Man Bao walked towards his carriage, and only opened the curtain, and two heads quickly popped out of it and shouted "Wow".

Seeing that she was frightened, Bai Shan and Bai Erlang immediately laughed and said happily, "I knew you would be frightened if you didn't sleep well last night."

Man Bao: "... Keke, why didn't you tell me?"

Keke: "This will not be life-threatening to the host, and I haven't noticed any malice in them. If every behavior is forewarned in advance, the host's life will lose a lot of fun."

Man Bao felt his heart beat until he calmed down, and An thought: This is not interesting at all.

Bai Shan smiled and stretched out his hand at her, "Come on up, I'll take you home to rest."

Man Bao put it on his hand, got into the car with his strength, and asked, "Aren't you going to play?"

"You still don't go with a tired look on your face," Bai Shan said with a smile, "and now that the shops, business and travel are all closed, where can we go to play?"

Man Bao nodded and whispered to him, "I have a secret to tell you when I get home."

Bai Erlang on the side said: "I heard it."

Bai Shan glanced at him and ignored him, and said to Man Bao, "Let's go to the open house in the garden and say that there is no one there."

Bai Erlang: "Do you want me to look out for you?"

Man Bao said: "No, it's fine if you don't come to eavesdrop."

Bai Erlang hummed and said: "I won't eavesdrop, what secrets can you tell? Zuo is only a matter of the court or the palace. Anyway, it is something that requires a lot of effort to do. don't listen."

He had to work hard to hear it, why did he bother to come?

Man Bao thought about it and found that he had guessed everything correctly, so he gave him a thumbs up.

Bai Erlang raised his head proudly.

See you tomorrow
