Space in hand: Genius women engaged in scientific research in ancient times

Qian Xiao gave them homophonic names for the four great inventions: the compass, gunpowder, printing, and papermaking. I don’t know if these things started to appear in this era. I guess her mother doesn't know either.

"Thanks to the name given by Miss, my slave Zhizhen can make various dishes and needlework."

Qian Xiao looked at Zhizhen's hands. He could be regarded as a man of dexterity and good looks.

"Slave Huo Yao is quite strong and can help young lady carry heavy objects." After speaking, Huo Yao raised his fist.

Qian Xiao smiled, the name suited her, but he still had doubts about her ability to carry heavy objects. Huo Yao looked too petite.

"My slave Yin Brush knows etiquette and plays musical instruments, so she can relieve the boredom of the young lady." Yin Brush smiled slightly.

"Slave Zaozhi...Slave...Slave will only listen to the arrangements of the young lady. I will do whatever the young lady asks me to do."

Zaozhi's face turned red and he felt that he was useless and knew nothing. She had just entered the mansion not long ago. If it weren't for the fact that the family couldn't find the truth, she wouldn't have thought of selling herself as a maid...

"Grandma is very good at making arrangements, so I will keep them. Qian Shuang, please reply to grandma and let her worry about it."

Qian Xiao was quite satisfied with these four girls, but when they were about 10 years old, that is, when they were in the fourth or fifth grade of elementary school, they acted like they were careful about their master's face.

Regardless of whether they have their own little thoughts or whether they treat her sincerely, Qian Xiao doesn't care.

Man is an entity that is neither good nor bad and tends to love himself first and others second. Everyone has the germs of various natures. Sometimes they show one kind of nature, sometimes they show that kind of nature, and sometimes they become completely different, but in fact they are still the same person.

Qian Xiao's heart and strength are strong enough, so he is not afraid of other people's mischief.

Of course, if they treat her sincerely, Qian Xiao will also treat them sincerely.

Qian Shuang was about to exit the room and stopped when she reached the door.

"Fifth Miss, Aunt Qin bumped into you yesterday, and she realized she was wrong. She asked the slave to tell you, and she will apologize to you when she recovers."

Qian Shuang exited after finishing speaking.

Qian Xiao touched his slender chin with his hand. This Aunt Qin must be the old lady from yesterday. She is quite smart.

Then let her suffer for a few more days before talking about it.

"You four don't have to be divided into first-class and second-class maids here. We are all the same. You can divide the daily chores in private. There are only two requirements."

"First, don't enter my room casually. If you have something to do, knock on the door before entering. Second, remember, from now on, you can only have me as your master. If you let me know, betraying the master..."

Qian Xiao flicked his hand, and there was a "boom" outside the door. The sound was scarier than thunder in the sky, and smoke suddenly spread everywhere. A big hole appeared in the ground!

The four girls turned pale, obviously frightened by the sudden scene. How... is this done?

Qian Xiao originally wanted to crush the water cup to show his dignity, but later he felt that his body was not well-rested yet, so he could only use the small bombs piled up in the laboratory and throw them out with less effort.

She won't tell others that she is actually lazy...

The people in the house were also frightened by the noise, and the patrolling servants came over to ask.

Yin Brush reacted and was the first to go out and say to the servant.

"Brother Patrol, we were in the room following the lady's instructions. I don't know what happened but suddenly there was a strange noise. The lady was also frightened."

The other three maids also went out.

"Yes."

"too frightening!"

"Is it going to rain or thunder?"

"Brother Patrol, can you help me pave the ground?"

"Miss, you're so pitiful. She was struck by lightning just after she came back... Wuwuwu..."

.......

Huoyao also pretended to sob. The other three people looked over, don't go too far.

The patrolling servant checked it out and asked someone to help lay the floor before leaving.

Qian Xiao nodded, these four girls were teachable.

They knelt respectfully in front of Qian Xiao.

"Okay, you don't have to be too restrained. I know how to punish you, as long as you don't violate the principles. You don't have to kneel down every now and then. Get out."

"Zhenzhi, help me prepare a set of men's clothes."

"Yes, ma'am."

When Mrs. Liu looked at her daughter, she always felt that her daughter was different from before. But that’s fine too.

"Mom, please go and rest first. If you need anything, you can call them anytime."

After Mr. Liu left, Qian Xiao flashed into the space.

"Mea, prepare some disguise cream for me, I have to go out."

Qian Xiao smeared it on his face and transformed himself into a man.

He came out and took the clothes Zhenzhi got from somewhere and put them on.

Dressed in white, his body is thin and short. He even looks a little thin, too thin.

"You guys keep an eye on the yard. If anyone comes, tell me that I am recuperating and it is not appropriate to see guests, lest I get over the illness."

After saying that, he climbed over the wall and left.

......

Beijing Central Street.

On both sides of the street are taverns, teahouses, pawn shops, workshops... and many small vendors with big umbrellas selling. There are constant pedestrians, and occasionally carriages pass by, some are carrying burdens on their way, some are delivering goods, some are stopping by the river...it's so lively!

Qian Xiao first visited some of the largest medical clinics and found that the medical standards here were not very good. Many diseases could be cured quickly, but the doctors told the patients to go home and wait to die. For example, one patient covered his body The pain on my left side was excruciating.

The doctor looked at his symptoms and learned that he had occasional tingling in the urethra, soreness and tingling in the left side of his lower back, which was persistent, his right ulnar pulse was enlarged, and his tongue was clear and uncoated.

This is obvious kidney stones.

But the doctor shook his head and said that the man was terminally ill and asked his family to take him back to prepare for the funeral.

Qian Xiao shook his head.

Borrow a pen and a piece of paper and write: 30 grams of money grass, 12 grams of mallow seeds, 12 grams of talcum powder, 12 grams of plantain, 9 grams of Achyranthes bidentata, 9 grams of Yunfu Ling, 3 grams of licorice tips, donkey hide gelatin 12 grams, 9 grams of Eucommia ulmoides, 9 grams of Sichuan pork, 9 grams of wolfberry, and 9 grams of locust. Take 1 dose in boiled water every day for up to a month. One last thing to add: drink more hot water.

He handed the note to the man and turned around and left.

After Qian Xiao left, the man and his wife were a little confused. They checked it and hesitated to show it to the doctor.

The doctor looked at it and just waved his hand, expressing disbelief. Then we drove people away, and there were still many patients to see.

The man and his wife finally decided to go to the medicine shop next door to get medicine, which was a dead horse.

Qian Xiao didn't care about this episode because she came to the teahouse.

"Waiter, serve tea and some signature dishes."

"Okay! Wait a moment, sir!"

There were so many people in the teahouse that Qian Xiao finally found a corner to sit down.

"Have you heard? I heard that General Qian is coming back soon."

"Really? General Qian has not returned to the capital for more than ten years. Now that the border is stable, it's time to come back!"

"How did you know?"
