[Red House Chai Dai] Salted Pork Knuckle, Crab Rice Wine

When Baochai went to Xiangling to see Sun Mu the next day, he found that Sun Mu and Yao Jing had reconciled.When Sun Mu mentioned this matter to Baochai, he was embarrassed: "After all, she is a sister for many years. She begged again and again, but I really couldn't be hard-hearted. Besides, she also said that she knew she was wrong, and she ate it again a while ago. There has been a lot of suffering, and the world is difficult. With her temperament, if I am watching, I am afraid that she will not be able to go on. Therefore... I am really sorry. When I recover, I will take her back. I went to my hometown in Jinling and lived in seclusion."

With Sun Mu's exquisite clarity and worldly sophistication, when he said these words, he didn't know how to organize them. One can imagine his embarrassment.

If you think about it, you will know that Sun Mu and Baochai are called masters and apprentices, but in fact Sun Mu is quite taken care of by Baochai when he is out walking.Now that her adopted sister has done this kind of thing to Baochai, she should have cut off her robes and cut off her righteousness, but now she is broken and reconciled, how can she tell Baochai.Even her ingenious character and her impeccable mouth are completely useless now.

Baochai knew that Sun Mu would be ruthless, but she had expected this ending.Immediately hurried to appease Sun Mu, told her not to take it to heart, thought for a while and then said in surprise: "Master, why is he in a hurry to go back to Jinling? Tu'er originally thought that the embroidery work that Tu'er took from the silk and satin factory would I still need to ask Master to give some pointers to those embroiderers and check them out. The matter of Daughter Valley is actually very promising. If it is strict in entering and lenient in exiting, it will be a merit. There are still many things in the period, and Mr. Yao needs to show his skills That's right. Why are you going back to Jinling in such a hurry?"

Seeing that she spoke sincerely, Sun Mu was also surprised, and said: "I have been practicing embroidery for more than twenty years, although it is not easy to catch everyone's eyes, but if it is to prevaricate the embroiderers outside, I am afraid it is enough. .If you really want to, I will brazenly take it down, so what's the problem? It's just about the Daughter's Valley, I'm afraid that about the Daughter's Valley..."

Baochai said with a smile: "If you follow Mr. Yao's wishes, the daughter's family who enters the daughter's valley will not be allowed to leave the valley, marry, or have anything to do with the former father and brother's family. Being victimized by a traitor, she became disheartened for a while and hid in the valley, but once the situation turned around, it was inevitable that she would not score twice. Could it be that she was forced to give up her good marriage and die of old age in this valley? The sister-in-law who has escaped into the second door of Buddhism and Taoism, there is still a talk of returning to the vulgar. Those who can only enter but not exit, that is a cult. Only be good to my daughter, and the girls are affectionate and affectionate. They think they are superior people, but they treat the world Men and eyebrows are like turbid things, and they praise and blame at every turn. Who built the thoroughfare of water transportation, who revised the laws of the market, the laws of the court and the country, and who practiced it? Could it be that it all depends on our female daughters? Among them, how come there are no noble ladies who do not give birth and tell tales?"

Sun Mu thought for a while and smiled: "You are very good. But how can you explain the strict entry and broad exit?"

Baochai said: "There are many unfortunate women in the world. But there are some daughters who can't lift their hands or shoulders. They can't say anything. They are also cunning and like to tell stories and gossip. If such women enter the valley, I'm afraid it's either a blessing or a curse. Since we have worked so hard to build the Daughter's Valley, we can't let such people easily enter the valley. If it's really poor, we can just help her secretly. This is strict In. Daughter in the valley, whether she reunites with her parents, or meets her beloved, or has another adventure, if she wants to go out of the valley and show her ambitions, we must not stop, we can only bless her, if she is happy from now on, if she is not, then this Daughter Gu is like her natal family, she can come back anytime."

When Baochai said this, Sun Mu's old sister Zhao Fang was beside her.Baochai didn't mean to avoid her, and it wasn't about gathering people to rebel, so why not talk to others?Zhao Fang was delighted to hear this, and nodded again and again. Before Sun Mu could speak, Zhao Fang had already said: "It's so good. If my daughter dies in the valley, someone from the valley will be buried for her, and there is no need to buy a gate and suffer from the filth of the dead man." Useless. If it really works, count me in!"

Sun Mu was not as ecstatic as Zhao Fang. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked Baochai, "What kind of business do you do in the valley, and how do you make a living? I know you have a lot of money. The Xue family was afraid that they would be rich. I must ask for your support, but if there is a long flow of water, there must be a way to open up the source."

Baochai smiled and said, "There is a way to open source. Speaking of which, it was the idea of ​​the daughter of Grandma Liu next door. She said that a few years ago, her grandmother made a lot of money by turning cotton clothes, spinning and weaving. A lot of money, it is said that most of the daughter's family are ingenious, if you really want to open the daughter's valley, you can teach the daughter's family to spin and weave, or learn how to embroider from your master, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ?”

Xiangling also interjected and said: "One hundred kinds of rice feeds all kinds of people. If there are people who are not good at spinning, weaving and embroidery, they can do other things. Just look at me, Xiangling. Now I cook Craftsmanship, even our girl agrees. As long as we have the intention to support ourselves, we can carry water, chop firewood, cook, farm, these jobs that ordinary people can do, what can we not do? It’s not that we have to go to battle Killing the enemy and taking the imperial examinations to obtain scholars are the skills."

Zhao Fang hurriedly said: "That's true. I originally did some embroidery work in the capital, and I naturally do this after that. When Sister Sun wants to teach students, I can also help. Even when I am old, my eyesight is blurred. Now, I can also carry water, chop firewood, and farm, and I will save the money for the coffin myself, so I won’t ask everyone to trouble me.”

Hearing her speak so urgently, Sun Mu felt sad in his heart.They are old sisters for many years and know each other well.She watched helplessly how Zhao Fang was tempered by life step by step from a young and ignorant girl to what she now looks like.If Zhao Fang didn't understand the pain of wandering, how could Zhao Fang be so urgent and humble?

While several people were chatting about the future, Yao Jing walked in with a bowl of medicine.Probably because Sun Mu had taught her a lesson in private, Yao Jing's arrogance, pride, and arrogance had completely subsided, and when she looked at Baochai, she even had a cautiously ingratiating expression.

But such Yao Jing still has her own persistence.When it came to the professional field, she immediately beamed with joy and high spirits: "It turns out that the imperial physicians in the palace are nothing more than that! Their hands are too soft, and the prescriptions given are all warming and recuperating. Although they are peaceful and upright, they are not lost. After taking that prescription, how long will it take to recover? So I changed a few medicines. Sister Sun usually has a good body, so this medicine is the most suitable."

Seeing that Yao Jing's words were true, Baochai watched her look towards Sun Mu with cold eyes, guessing that she must be very sure, so she dared to prescribe the medicine like this, so she couldn't help giving her a high look.

But Sun Mu said with a smile: "Your child doesn't know the depth of the family, but there is a reason here. Now everyone is on their own, so I can talk about it after closing the door."

Zhao Fang also had a rare smile with a mysterious face: "Exactly. There is a reason for this. If it weren't for the exquisite and translucent sister Sun, who would have guessed it."

It turns out that the so-called imperial physicians in the capital are often inherited from aristocratic families, and they have their own unique secrets for asking nobles for their pulse and prescribing prescriptions for decoction.This unique secret does not mean that they prescribe the medicine, how immediate the effect is, and the medicine cures the disease, but the safe way to go, how to get it safely.Sometimes it is better not to cure the disease well, but not to be too radical, let the royal family take advantage of it, not only lose their own life, but also bring harm to the family.In this case, using some warming and recuperating prescriptions is their habitual actions without thinking.

After Baochai heard this argument, she couldn't help expecting more from Yao Jing's medical skills, and said, "Although I said so, if I didn't have superior medical skills, I wouldn't dare to change this prescription easily. Mr. Yao I don't know who my teacher is, but it's really admirable to be able to reach such a level at such a young age!"

Yao Jing was also taken aback when she heard the words, and felt a little joy in her heart.In the past, when she and Baochai met, they were always talking with each other, implying the smell of gunpowder. At that time, Baochai never praised her, or praised her in truth.But he didn't expect that at this moment, he was suddenly praised so much by her.

Yao Jing didn't think she used to treat Baochai with all kinds of sarcasm. Even though Baochai was more modest, she was not a temperament to be bullied.Yao Jing treated her like this, and it was natural for her to suppress her with words.

Everyone likes to hear good things.Yao Jing had just been humiliated and frightened, and was treated by Sun Mu Haosheng. She was a little at a loss when she suddenly heard that Baochai praised her medical skills so much. It just so happens that I have done some research on the symptoms of typhoid fever."

She is so modest, others especially, Ying'er and Xiangling's eyes widened.After all, Ying'er is Baochai's maid. In order to win face for her master on such occasions, she kept to the rules and kept silent, but Xiangling got acquainted with Mr. Yao, so she smiled and said, "Mr. There is such a humble moment! What an anecdote!"

Embarrassed by her smile, Yao Jing blushed and said, "Miss Xiangling is making fun of me again. Although I have always been arrogant, this matter of pharmacology is about the lives of patients, so how dare I take it lightly? I have studied medicine since I was a child. He is best at typhoid fever and phlegm disease, so he dared to change the prescription. If it is something else, he has to think twice before he dares to try it."

Seeing that Yao Jing was so eloquent, Baochai took the opportunity to ask, "I don't know if Mr. Yao is good at treating deficiencies?"

Hearing this, Yao Jing turned her head to look at Baochai, and heard her slowly say: "I have a close friend who suffers from insufficiency, and takes medicine from the time he can eat, and he is ill for half a year. I don't know if Mr. Yao has a way to recuperate for her?"
