Love after marriage with a husband

This is a well-preserved prickly pear.

Some broken roots were carefully wrapped by the stall owner with soil. When Jiang Ran picked up the fairy grass, as long as he shook his hand slightly, the soil on the rhizomes would fall down.

It looks very ordinary no matter what.

Little Shuang'er racked his brains, and finally found a reason why Fang Zhongshan insisted on buying a weed for five copper coins. He deliberately waited until the distance from the stall was far away, and then asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhongshan, is this Why is fairy grass not a valuable herbal medicine?"

"Did we take advantage of it?!"

Fang Zhongshan saw Xiao Shuang'er's dimples sinking deeper and deeper, he couldn't hold back, raised his hand to poke, and replied with some helplessness: "It's not some expensive herbal medicine."

His words were not fake.

In Fang Chongshan's previous life, Immortal Grass was a very common plant. Almost every household would go up the mountain to collect it in the hot summer. In his previous life, Immortal Grass had another famous name, "Jelly Grass".

The village where Fang Chongshan lived in his previous life was poor in traffic and economically backward, and there was no such thing as ice cream and popsicles for summer heat.

After the busy farming in the village, the peasant women who have time to spare often send their children to the mountains to pick jelly grass, boil the rhizome of jelly jelly mixed with sugar in water until it becomes gelatinous, cool it into jelly, and sprinkle some Hawthorn slices or raisins, eat a bowl, from the throat all the way to the bottom of the stomach is cold.

People in the village call him jelly.

Jiang Ran felt a little disappointed, her bright eyes dimmed a bit, and she muttered, "So it's not herbal medicine."

Xiao Shuang'er realized that Brother Zhongshan might be tricked by others, and was afraid that Fang Zhongshan would be depressed because of this, so she quickly pulled herself together, held up the green fairy grass in her hand, and grinned: "It doesn't matter if it's not herbs, you see How vigorous this fairy grass is growing!"

"When it is planted in front of our house, maybe it will grow a large area, which will be lush and green, and it will make people feel good when they look at it."

The little guy was obviously very disappointed, and he tried to comfort himself pretending not to care. Fang Zhongshan always felt warm because of him, and his fingertips climbed all the way up to Jiang Ran's ears. He explained with a smile: "Although It's not a rare herbal medicine, but it is useful after all, and can make some novel snacks, and I will show you when I get back."

When Jiang Ran heard this, he couldn't help but his eyes brightened. He thought of the hickory nuts, pickled green plums, and candied haws made by Brother Zhongshan. The ordinary wild things in the mountains fell into Fang Zhongshan's hands, and they could always be made into sweet and delicious pieces ingeniously. Snacks.

Xiao Shuang'er nodded solemnly, and said solemnly: "Just like the bedtime stories my father told me before, Brother Chongshan also has a touch of stone like gold!"

It's just that he couldn't think of any rare thing that a piece of unknown green grass could make, so he had even more expectations in his heart.

The two continued to wander around in a circle, adding a lot of useful or useless items here and there, and they didn't stop until the two bamboo baskets they brought were too full to fit.

Hum Chi Hum Chi walked to the boundary bridge with two big baskets on his back, finally hired a passing ox cart, paid double the price, got into the cart, and hurried back before the sun went down Fengyun Pharmacy.

Cai Xuan just came back from going out for a consultation, sitting in the doorway of the pharmacy with a small bench to enjoy the cool air, happened to bump into Fang Zhongshan and Jiang Ran walking back panting with big bamboo baskets on their backs, stood up curiously, looked into the basket, and just happened to see The prickly pear grass carefully placed on the top of the basket.

He couldn't help but snorted, thinking that he had read it wrong, so he went over and pulled a leaf, took it to his nose and sniffed it.

"Isn't this fairy grass?"

Cai Xuan opened his mouth and said, "There is a bamboo forest growing in our backyard, except for the things that can't be cleaned, why did you deliberately bring it back from outside?"

When Jiang Ran heard this, he said in a daze, "The bamboo forest in the backyard? Is that the forest next to our room?"

"Well, the herbal medicine for treating heatstroke, the leaves smell like sandalwood, it's unmistakable."

Cai Xuan took the leaves away, with disgust on his face, "It was given by a friend of mine who came from the capital before. I saw the novelty at the time, and deliberately planted a few in the forest. I didn't expect it to be out of control. .”

Jiang Ran's small face was full of distress, "Hey, I know there are bamboo forests, so I don't waste my money! We gave five copper coins when we bought it!"

Fang Zhongshan didn't think it was a pity. He was worried that the fairy grass plants in his hand were too few and too small. He might not be able to make a bowl of jelly in a while.

Cai Xuan laughed, and said with a sigh: "Five copper coins? Just for such a grass? After all, the young couple is young, and if they are not in charge of the family, they don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive."

Jiang Ran couldn't get used to hearing these words. Cai Xuan obviously only had a meal with him at noon, but now he said that he was not in charge of the family, and immediately waved his fists, retorting fiercely: "Brother Chongshan must have his plans ! Guaranteed to be eye-opening!"

The more the little husband defended, the more Cai Xuan wanted to make fun of him. He intentionally made a sly tone, and smiled coolly twice: "It's eye-opening? I'm afraid it won't surprise people? I'll just wait and see."

The old and the young bickered happily, Fang Zhongshan looked naive, and moved the purchased items into the house without saying a word.

Seeing that it was not too late, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell gently on the bamboo forest beside him, Fang Zhongshan simply walked a few steps inside, only then did he know that what Cai Xuan said was true.

Layer after layer of fairy grass is spread all over the ground, probably because the environment in the bamboo forest is suitable, they grow well, each one has a thick root, and they are lushly assembled into one piece, which seems to be a good material for making jelly.

Fang Zhongshan was a little surprised to pick up a few handfuls of fairy grass, and was going to try to see if he could make a bowl of jelly in his spare time at night.

Jiang Ran happened to be boiling water in the temporarily separated kitchen, and seeing Fang Zhongshan holding a large handful of fairy grass in his hand, he hurried over with a pot in his arms, and asked in surprise, "Are these all picked from the forest?" ?”

He felt that he was cheated by the stall owner before, and after arguing with Cai Xuan for a while, he suddenly thought about it, staring at the fat and tender fairy grass in the pot, wringing his fingers and laughing happily: "A single fairy grass can be sold!" Five silver and copper plates, there are so many around our house, if you bring them to the West Market, even if you only sell one copper plate, you can make a lot of money!"

At first glance, he looked like a small money fanatic who got into the eyes of money. Fang Zhongshan flicked his little head with his fingers, and his words were full of helplessness: "You, I'm afraid you were a copper coin in your previous life!"

Xiao Shuang'er covered her head with one hand, whimpered repeatedly, and waved her hands in protest, quite dissatisfied: "I'm not a copper coin spirit!"

"If so, it should be Yin Zijing!"

Is it actually entangled in this place?What a greedy little guy!

Fang Zhongshan was almost amused by his nonsensical rebuttal, and quickly pinched off the green leaves of the fairy grass in the pot, leaving only a section of fresh and tender rhizome.

Jiang Ran's hot water on the stove was just bubbling and bubbling. Fang Zhongshan estimated the proportion, skimmed off the excess boiling water, and poured the newly purchased sugar into the pot again without hesitation.

Little Shuang'er was lying on the side watching eagerly, her little face was full of entanglements: "Are you going to make candied fairy grass this time?"

He secretly broke off a small piece of fairy grass and stuffed it into his mouth, and was soon forced to frown by the bitter taste, gritted his teeth and hissed: "It's really unpalatable, even if it's soaked in sugar, it's probably delicious. Not much!"

Fang Chongshan didn't answer, picked up the cleaned wooden shovel, put it into the sugar water and stirred it at a constant speed, and waited until the heat was almost ready, then poured the washed fairy grass in the basin into it.

Also put in is a bowl of pre-prepared rice milk.

Jiang Ran really couldn't understand it, and tilted his head to stare at the bubbling in the pot. After waiting for a while, he suddenly yelled in surprise: "Hey, why did it change color!"

The original pot of green soup unknowingly turned into a black color, and it didn't look like anything that could be eaten.

Fang Zhongshan carefully poured the congealed, translucent black jelly into a bowl and put it in a bowl. Xiao Shuang'er's eyes were full of worry: "Is this really edible? Will it be poisonous?"

While talking, he curiously poked it with his chopsticks, the translucent powder DuangDuang trembled twice, it looked a little cute.

Fang Zhongshan dug a small spoonful, put it in his mouth and tasted it, although it was not as perfect as the old peasant women in his memory, but the general taste was good.

It is estimated that the jelly is not too sweet because of the lack of sugar.

The light sweetness and cold taste expel most of the heat in midsummer.

Looking at it, Jiang Ran couldn't help being moved, and anxiously reached out to ask for it: "I want to taste it too, I want to taste it too."

He used to dislike the weird-looking jelly very much, but when he ate it, his eyes lit up immediately, and he unceremoniously stuffed a few tablespoons into his mouth.

"Although it's hot, I don't know what's going on. It's cool to eat it in your mouth. If you hang it in the well to freeze it overnight and eat it during the day, you won't be afraid even in the sun. gone."

Jiang Ran's thoughts coincided with Fang Zhongshan's.

Except for a plate of jelly specially reserved for Xiao Shuang'er, the rest was put into a big bowl and stuffed into the wooden barrel shaking the water by the well. Zhong Shan simply lowered the barrel so that it would float on the water.

After a night's sleep, the sun hangs in the sky again, and you can take the chilled jelly.

Cai Xuan lives alone. Although he has lived a long time, the place where he lives alone does not even have a kitchen that can use fire.

Now, the matter of providing Cai Xuan with rations naturally fell on Fang Zhongshan and Jiang Ran.

It was no different from when he was in Hexie Village. Jiang Ran got up early every day, boiled water in a hot pot, made some pasta or porridge soup, and divided it between himself and Fang Zhongshan. lunch box.

Just waiting for Fang Chongshan to finish his breakfast, he leisurely took the lunch box and knocked on the door of Cai Xuan's residence.

Although he has only been an apprentice for one day, Fang Zhongshan has roughly figured out his teacher's daily itinerary.

It's nothing more than studying prescriptions in the morning, going out for consultation in the afternoon, and sleeping with your head covered at night. The life is regular and boring.

After drinking the last mouthful of hot porridge, Cai Xuan wiped his mouth, and sighed with satisfaction, "It's been several years since I had a hot breakfast. It seems that I really did not take you wrong as an apprentice!"

Fang Zhongshan glanced at the empty lunch box and couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Ah!Where is the greedy apprentice?It's clearly a meal cooked by a greedy apprentice!

After eating and drinking enough, Cai Xuan regained his energy and continued to study the prescription that he studied yesterday. Fang Zhongshan leaned over and saw the name and effect of the medicine densely written on the ground, as well as some combinations of herbs.

Fang Zhongshan looked at it for a while, then suddenly raised his hand to point to the ground, frowned and asked, "Is there something wrong here?"

"Fuyue is yin to cold. If you add yin to it, even if it can really achieve the effect of relieving cough and asthma, I'm afraid it will hurt the body very much."

Cai Xuan looked in the direction Fang Chongshan pointed, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Although Fuyue has the effect of relieving cough, it is a pity that the effect of the medicine is too slow, Chongshan, if it is according to your idea, if you don't use Yinyuezi , what kind of medicine should be used as an assistant?"

Fang Zhongshan soon realized that in Da'an, people's understanding of the efficacy of herbal medicine was too shallow, and many times when they encountered illnesses, they would only dare to use a single herbal medicine alone.

And what Cai Xuan is thinking about now, actually has the basic prototype of the compound prescription proposed by later generations.

"Based on my considerations, the main medicine Fuyue is cold in nature, and white ginseng can be used as an adjuvant medicine. It can not only relieve the coldness in the medicine, but also nourish blood and Qi. It must be much better than Yinyuezi. "

It was the first time Cai Xuan heard of such novel terms as adjuvant medicine and main medicine. He could probably guess what it meant, and added the name of white ginseng on the ground with a pen in his hand.

After reading through the complete prescription, Cai Xuan felt that what Fang Zhongshan said was more and more reasonable. He didn't care about other things, jumped up from the ground, kicked over the lunch box at his feet, and hastily grabbed Fuyue White Ginseng and other Medicinal materials, squatting in front of the medicine jar and trying to boil the medicine.

After tossing and going back and forth for most of the morning, Cai Xuangougou finally finalized the final prescription, and finally had time to question Fang Zhongshan.

"What do you mean by the main medicine and adjuvant medicine that you told me earlier?"

Drugs are divided into "monarchs, ministers and assistants" to coordinate and assist the matching of various drugs, so as to maximize the efficacy and reduce toxicity.

This is basically a compulsory course for the herb collectors of later generations to enter the profession, but Da'an Kingdom does not seem to have this kind of teaching.

As a herb picker, Fang Zhongshan learned only superficially. He seriously recalled the medicine books he read in his spare time in his previous life, and gestured to the ground with a brush.

Cai Xuan's eyes became brighter the more he listened, and he clapped his palms fiercely after listening to it, loudly applauding: "You have a good idea!"

"According to your method to clear the mind, many prescriptions that were unreasonable in the past have been straightened out this time."

Cai Xuan, who could be called a drug addict, looked at Fang Chongshan again and suddenly changed his gaze, "Tell me, if you have any other fantastic ideas, tell me quickly!"

Fang Chongshan was forced by his eager and longing eyes to smile wryly, and waved his hands perfunctorily and said, "I just listened to what the old people in the village said casually, so there are no other whimsical ideas."

Cai Xuan thought that Fang Chongshan was referring to an experienced old man in Hexie Village, so he hurriedly asked, "The old man can still be found now?"

Fang Chongshan simply spread his hands: "The world is impermanent, and I have long since lost it."

After all, it was all about the past life, whether it was the medicine books or those old people who kindly taught him, he no longer knew where to go.

Cai Xuan lost all energy in an instant, slapped his thigh regretfully, sighed and said, "Oh, that would be such a pity!"

After being sad for a long time, I managed to pull myself together, and comforted myself: "However, what you just told me is enough to digest for a long time. It seems that when should I go to the surrounding villages? If you walk around, you may meet some strange people and come up with some new recipes."

After finishing writing the remaining prescriptions in his hand, Cai Xuan took the time to chat with Fang Chongshan.

When we were talking about getting excited, Cai Xuan suddenly asked, "Chongshan, you don't seem to have met the owner of our pharmacy, have you?"

Fang Chongshan was taken aback by his question, and honestly shook his head to say no.

He had heard the statement of the owner of the pharmacy several times from Mr. Ye, but he had only heard of his name and never seen him.

Seeing his bewildered face, Cai Xuan couldn't help being interested, and leaned closer and muttered mysteriously: "The owner of our pharmacy is surnamed Ge, and he is the best at doing business, so everyone calls him Ge Caishen. There are not many opportunities to see him.”

"It is said that he has opened several chain pharmacies in the capital city of Da'an, and the pharmacies are very large...Fengyun pharmacy is quite famous in Fanyang City, but if it is really put in the capital, it is really not worth mentioning. gone."

"Chongshan, when I have a chance, I will introduce you. Maybe the owner of the medicine shop will be attracted by him. If you go to the capital to be a medicine man, you will definitely earn a lot of money."

Fang Chongshan responded with words, but he didn't care about it in his heart, he only thought that Cai Xuan was trying to make him happy.

When he came to Fanyang City, besides being an apprentice to learn skills, he also had his own plans and plans for the future.

Learn more about herbal medicine habits, and when you have saved enough money, go back to Hexie Village and buy a few acres of land, which will be specially reserved as a medicinal field for cultivating medicinal herbs.

In Fang Zhongshan's mind, making money from artificially cultivated medicinal materials is much more comfortable than climbing and rolling on Duwu Mountain.

As for going to the capital to be a medicine man, he never even thought about it.
