Traversing back to ancient times, Western medicine also farms

Time flies, the weather is getting colder every day, and the green leaves all over the mountains are gradually withering and falling.During this period of time, Li Mushu stayed at Doctor Wang's house to develop Chinese patent medicines, and the villagers in Huaishuwan had already started to pickle bacon and sausages and various dried vegetables and pickles for the winter.

Because Li Mushu was carrying a cheating device, he could still cook some home-cooked dishes with rich modern flavors, but when it came to what to prepare for winter, he really didn't know at all.In modern times, there are shopping malls and supermarkets, and you can buy clothes and food immediately, as long as you have money.But here, although there is no shortage of food, daily necessities such as meat, salt and oil have to be prepared early. Everyone is at home in winter.

We can't count on Li Mushu anymore. Fortunately, there are Huang An and Huang Erniang at home. We need warm clothes in winter, store various foods, replenish seasonings, etc. Huang Erniang has prepared them one by one early.Coupled with the warm clothes that Xie Yueyun had already prepared for luck, it would not be a problem to stay at home all winter.

Late autumn in the north is already equivalent to winter in the south. When scattered snowflakes began to fall from the sky, covering the arched vegetable shed in Xie's yard with a thin layer of snow, Li Mushu was already curled up on the fire pit at home. Surrounded by a thick quilt, he refused to go out.

Li Mushu did not expect that the winter in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty would be so cold. He was also in the north when he was in college, and he has been used to the northern weather for so many years, but the coldness is simply incomparable to this place. Maybe global warming Is one of the reasons for it.

The work of developing the formula of Chinese patent medicine came to a halt after the first snowfall. The Chinese patent medicine jointly developed by the two masters and apprentices went through the stages of test-improvement-test-re-improvement-re-test, etc., and the desired effect was achieved. It was strictly recorded and handed over to Fang Yisi and Xie Yueyun to arrange mass production in the workshop.

Those who failed the test can be improved and continued, and those with little effect, Li Mushu decided to give up.In the beginning, Doctor Wang and Li Mushu developed Chinese patent medicines mainly for military supplies. These formulas were mostly for treating trauma, typhoid and preventing plague.All can be mass produced.

"Little Daddy, I'm back." Xiaohui, who was dressed roundly, also ran into the room with agility, and directly threw himself at Li Mushu, who was sitting cross-legged on the pit and writing.He wore a hat made of rabbit fur on his head, and the white rabbit fur lined his white bun face with a red nose from the cold, not to mention how cute it was.

"Baby Xiaohui, isn't it cold outside? Look, your hands are red from the cold. Hey, where are your gloves?" Li Mushu smiled and stretched out his arms to hug Xiaohui. After touching it a few times, he was so cold that he shuddered, which made Xiaohui Kaka laugh out loud.

"I gave my gloves to Miss Li. Today, Mrs. Li asked us to have some snacks, and Miss Li was there too. She kept staring at my gloves and seemed to like them very much. I thought my little dad would make me a pair of more beautiful ones. I'll give it to her." Xiaohui explained while rubbing against Li Mushu's body, it was really warm on his little daddy's body.

"Did you give away your used gloves to someone? Give it to a girl?" Li Mushu stretched out his white and slender fingers and tapped Xiaohui's plump forehead, and said a lesson: "Of course you give a girl a brand new one. , and you have to pack it before sending it out. Where did you lose all the etiquette you learned before?"

"Ever since I followed my informal dad, I've completely forgotten all the red tape, Kaka~" Xiaohui raised his head and squinted his eyes to see Li Mushu grinning, "Besides, Miss Li is the eldest brother of Zhanzhong. Sister-in-law, that is, my younger sister, you don’t have to be so particular about giving something to your younger sister. Anyway, Miss Li doesn’t mind, she’s smiling happily.”

"My impression seems that Ms. Li is two years older than you, right? How can she be a younger sister? Huh?" Li Mushu picked up Xiaohui, helped him take off his boots, and then directly stuffed him into the bed that covered the pit table. Warm up under the quilt.

"Wow, it's so warm! She's shorter than me, of course she's my younger sister." Xiao Hui smiled and leaned against Li Mushu, "Daddy is so warm, can I sleep with you tonight?"

"Okay, you can talk to daddy later." Li Mushu picked up a honeyed olive with a bamboo fork and put it in Xiaohui's mouth.

"Little Daddy~~~Can you tell Daddy?" Xiaohui opened his small mouth and chewed the whole olive in his mouth. After chewing, he hugged Li Mushu's waist and acted like a baby.

"Well, you can tell Yue Yun first, and then I'll help, okay? By the way, Miss Li's gloves were made by Mrs. Li herself. They should be beautiful, right? Why did you fall in love with you?" Li Mushu forked another Only honey olives for Xiaohui.

Xiaohui mumbled with a honeyed olive in his mouth, "Okay, that's settled. Well, Miss Li's gloves are red, very old-fashioned, and have no special features at all. Can they be compared with Xiaopai's design? As soon as I put on those gloves and went out, everyone said they looked good." Xiao Hui had followed Li Mushu for a long time, and even learned [-]% of Li Mushu's modern expressions.Throwing him to the modern age now, there is no problem in communication at all.

"Her gloves are delicate and elegant. What are they old-fashioned? Children really have no sense of aesthetics. Don't talk nonsense when you go out." The gloves Li Mushu designed for Xiaohui are actually the cute version of the kind that are everywhere in modern times.The lining is made of pure cotton, and the outside is knitted with wool to make a cute animal, and then the wrist is surrounded by rabbit fur. The two gloves are tied with a small rope so that they can be hung around the neck without losing them.

"Understood. Daddy, the honeydew olives are so delicious, let's have another one." Xiaohui opened his mouth wide and waited for the feed.

Li Mushu forked another one and put it into his mouth, saying, "Don't eat this after you've finished eating, and we'll have dinner as soon as your father comes back."

"Yeah, daddy, would you like to eat hot pot tonight?" After chewing the olives and swallowing them, Xiao Hui remembered the hot hot pot. It's the best thing for the whole family to eat together in such a cold day.

"Huang Erniang stewed pork knuckle today, let's eat it tomorrow." Li Mushu made a cup of marinated olive juice for Xiaohui to drink, it clears heat and moistens throat.Since the weather got cold, the Xie family ate hot pot almost every day.This hot pot is easy to get angry if you eat too much.

In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. By the time Xie Yueyun returned home covered in snowflakes, it was already completely dark.Doctor Wang has already come over to wait for dinner, and now he is playing mahjong with Li Mushu, Xiaohui and Xiaorong sitting on the heated kang.

This mahjong is something that Li Mushu fiddled with in his spare time.Winter is here, he is too cold to move, but always staying at home, Mao Dong has nothing to do, and it is a bit boring.Xie Yueyun has his job, Xiaohui has his study, Li Ping has the mushroom shed, Huang Erniang has the vegetable shed, Xu Daming has the ice-catch fish, Huang An and his wife have the rough and fine work at home, Li Mushu’s greatest contribution is getting enough sleep Think of some delicious and novel dishes, or design some strange clothes for Xiaohui so that he can show off in the school, and after that, there is nothing else for him.

As for Dr. Wang, he was as lazy as Li Mushu in winter, and he stopped visiting Xie's house.In this regard, the two masters and apprentices are still very similar.However, Dr. Wang has a great literary talent, and occasionally Li Yuancang, a poet friend and chess friend, would drop by.The two literati can be regarded as sympathetic to each other in Huaishuwan, but this is nothing to do with Li Mushu, who is semi-literate.

Li Mushu basically lived a life like eating, sleeping, and eating pigs.But people are not pigs after all, so mahjong came into being.Seeing that no one had played here before, Li Mushu decided to set a precedent in Huaishuwan in Datang Kingdom.Mahjong was also called Ma Diao in ancient China, which is made of bamboo.Li Mushu used a charcoal pen to draw out the whiteboards, etc., and then engrave them on square bamboo grains of the same size according to the drawing, and then he could make a mahjong set.

Originally, Li Mushu wanted Li Ping, who had a delicate mind and exquisite manual work, to do it, but Li Ping was so busy learning how to manage the mushroom shed from Brother An that he didn't have time at all.Li Mushu had no choice but to ask Xu Daming to do it. Fortunately, Xu Daming also worked hard. Although the workmanship was a bit rough, it was finally done.

No, as soon as mahjong came out, Dr. Wang, who is as lazy as Wang, came to Xie's house to play in the snow every day, and eat by the way.Sometimes I take it to play at Mr. Li's house, because Mrs. Li has no best friends here. Although she is talented in literature and can play the piano and poetry, but there must be entertainment, right?So Li Mushu sent the draft of his drawing to Hong Da, and asked him to help him get two more copies, one for Li's family and one for Dr. Wang.

Naturally, Hongda will not only make two sets, this thing is most suitable for cats to play in winter, so every household has one set, and every day there are rumors of playing mahjong, "scratching" and "eating Hu". sound.

"Playing mahjong again!" Xie Yueyun stood at the door of the room and did not go in. When Li Mushu saw him coming back, he cheered, "Yueyun is back, let's eat and eat." While talking, he hurriedly overturned his own cards and messed up the cards on the table , and then jumped down the pit neatly.

"Ah, Xiao Mu cheated again! I'm going to lose my mind!" Doctor Wang was unhappy, but the cards on the table were already messed up, and there was no way to straighten them out. "I'm sure Xiaomu's cards must be terrible!"

"My cards are not bad at all! Xiaohui and Xiaorong, come on, let's have dinner." Li Mushu waved at Xiaohui and Xiaorong, then smiled and pulled Xie Yueyun to the living room.The living room was connected with the two of them, and it was too cold in winter, so Li Mushu didn't want to go to the dining room to eat in the cold.

Huang Erniang served hot stewed elbows, fish balls, tofu, vegetables, dried shiitake mushrooms, and hot charcoal under the pot. Stir-fried garlic sprouts with bacon, scrambled eggs with shallots, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables with mashed garlic.The meat, intestines, and eggs were also cut into a large plate and brought up.There is a table full, and I am drooling when I look at it.

These green vegetables, garlic sprouts, and shallots are all produced in the vegetable shed.Although it doesn't taste as good as the ones grown in the current season, and it looks a little sorry, but in winter, when you can only eat radishes and cabbage, it is very happy to be able to eat green vegetables.

These mushrooms are naturally produced in the mushroom shed. Since Li Ping cultivated the mycelium of the mushrooms on the wrought wood pile last time, the weather has been beautiful, and then there have been several autumn rains, and the wet weather just stimulates the growth of mycelia. up.The mycelium scattered in the culture medium also took root.Everything is going in the direction Li Mushu expected.

In those days, Li Ping walked around the mushroom shed every day, and Brother An later came to help.The growth environment of shiitake mushrooms mainly needs to maintain a certain temperature and humidity.The weather is getting colder. In order to maintain the temperature of the mushroom shed, Li Ping and the others have already set fire to the fire dragon outside the shed. But even so, the growth period of shiitake mushrooms in autumn is about two weeks slower than when the weather is warmer. Presumably in winter Will it be slower?

In this way, the three of them carefully took care of these shiitake mushrooms every day. After about a month, they finally harvested the first batch of artificially cultivated shiitake mushrooms before winter. Although the quantity was not large, Li Mushu and the others were very happy.

Brother Lao An picked the mushrooms on a sunny day, and picked them first when they were ripe. When harvesting, they also paid attention to only touching the stalks of the mushrooms, and not to scratch the gills, mushrooms and the edges of the mushrooms.

These mature shiitake mushrooms are cultivated from basswood, with large flesh, thick flesh and beautiful color; while the shiitake mushrooms cultivated in the cultivation base are relatively large but thin, with light taste and light color.Although they could be seen at a glance, Li Mushu told them to separate and put them in small baskets, and then put them one by one on the bamboo sieve with the gills facing up, and carried them to the front yard to dry in the sun.About six hours in the sun, and then moved to a small room in the backyard to bake.

Li Mushu remembered that if shiitake mushrooms were dried in the sun, vitamin D would be automatically produced, which is not available only in drying, and the dried shiitake mushrooms have a strong fragrance, and after being baked, not only are they nutritious, but also have a brighter color. Good and not easy to break.

Doctor Wang followed Li Mushu to watch the whole process, picked up the shiitake mushrooms and smelled them, and nodded in satisfaction.That night, he wrote a palace medicinal recipe of shiitake mushrooms and asked Li Mushu to make a stew for everyone to taste.

The taste of shiitake mushrooms cultivated from basswood is not inferior to that of wild ones. Doctor Wang nodded after eating them.It was preliminarily decided to wait until the beginning of spring to vigorously promote it, and Brothers Lao An and Li Ping would be in charge.The shiitake mushrooms harvested in sections were also given to the villagers of Huaishuwan to taste.

Doctor Wang's medicated diet is good, but not many people can afford it.However, there are still many modern shiitake mushroom recipes. Li Mushu worked hard to silently write several recipes and asked Huang Erniang to make them one by one.Everyone thought it was good after eating it, so they asked Huang Erniang to teach them.

The cold wind was blowing outside, and everyone inside was eating around the table and eating warmly.This stewed elbow is really delicious, and Huang Erniang's cooking skills are getting better and better under Li Mushu's guidance.Li Mushu touched his swollen belly, really afraid that he would turn into a pig's head again in one winter!

All the fire dragons in the house were on fire, and Li Mushu didn't feel cold at home, which was no less than modern heating.You can eat fresh and pollution-free meals every day, and you are accompanied by people who love you. There is neither pressure from work nor pressure to make money. Where can you find this kind of life in modern times?For the first time, Li Mushu felt that it would be nice to travel to the Tang Dynasty. The only regret was that Li's parents and Li's mother were not with him anymore.
