[Qing] Fourth Master, learn about health preservation

Geng Yi was so curious, but it was a pity that Fujin rarely spoke this time, and he got tired of talking after a few words, and sent them back.

But Fujin still stayed with Geng Yi for a while, and said with a smile: "I drank the Yangshen Soup twice, it's really good, and I think it's good too."

Geng Yi smiled: "Fu Jin's complexion is indeed better than before, did he sleep more soundly at night?"

Fujin nodded and said: "Yes, it's not that easy to wake up, did Geng Gege see this?"

Geng Yi thought that Fujin's eyes were so red and bloodshot before, obviously he didn't sleep well, but he slept quite early, which is different from the late-night party like the fourth elder brother.

Going to bed early and getting up early still looks like he hasn't woken up, and Fujin is a heavy-hearted person, obviously he woke up halfway.

She briefly stated her conjecture, and Fujin nodded with a smile and asked, "Just now, Geng Gege saw that Song Gege was weak, and planned to write a prescription for her?"

Geng Yi felt like a barefoot doctor soliciting customers everywhere, he was very embarrassed, and his face was brought out: "I saw Sister Song's hands and feet were cold, and I asked about the cold bed at night, no wonder I couldn't sleep well, I tried to think about it , Angelica Sini Soup is just right for her."

Fujin was quite curious: "Since that's the case, just ask people to buy medicinal materials later. Lord Belle thought that the old doctor's medical skills are good, and his character is also excellent. The medicinal materials prepared by the pharmacy have not had any problems for decades. The store has been listed. Whatever Geng Gege wants in the future, just write a list to Linglong."

Geng Yi clicked his tongue, the fourth elder brother actually sold the entire old doctor's pharmacy, which is really convenient.

After all, when buying medicine outside, the medicinal materials are uneven, how can the errand runners recognize it, and if the other party is not tight-lipped, it is not good to spread rumors.

Simply, the old doctor is strict-mouthed, and he ran back and forth twice without making any noise outside.

In addition, he has a good character and good medical skills, and the reputation of the pharmacy has been excellent for decades.

It is not easy for a person to be good for three to five years, but it is really rare to persist for decades.

Geng Yi asked curiously, "Did something happen to the old doctor's house?"

Fujin looked at her approvingly, knowing that Geng Yi understood that the fourth elder brother would not sell other people's store for no reason, especially this pharmacy was the only business for the old doctor: "The old doctor's only son fell down when he went to the mountain to collect medicine. After coming down, the person is unconscious, and the big apprentice plans to inherit the pharmacy."

Hearing this, Geng Yi knew that it was not that simple, and it was probably a big fight.

Even if it is a small pharmacy with decades of good reputation and time-honored brands, the succession of the big apprentice is the pinnacle.

The only opponent is the only son of the old doctor, and it is not known whether he will be able to wake up after this fall.

If left alone, the old doctor has to take care of his only son who is in a coma, and at the same time, the pharmacy is not in the mood to open, and as time goes by, it will only be vacant.

The eldest apprentice has inherited the old doctor's mantle, and if he inherits the pharmacy, he will surely be able to flourish.

But if the eldest apprentice's medical skills are good, but his character is not good, the old doctor will not be willing to hand over the pharmacy to the other party no matter what.

But the old doctor has no other successors, so after a few years he failed to survive his death, so it would be a disadvantage to the big apprentice after all.

At this time, the fourth elder brother made a move, which was equivalent to stabilizing the pharmacy for the old doctor.

Even if the big apprentice has countless tricks, he's fine against the old doctor, but he'll immediately give up against the fourth elder brother.

Geng Yi lamented that the fourth elder brother made such a move, the old doctor was overwhelmed with gratitude, and would definitely be willing to work hard for him.

Even if the old doctor is getting old, if the only son's medical skills are also inherited, it will be a great help if he can wake up.

She couldn't help asking: "Fu Jin, can the old doctor's only son be saved?"

Fujin sighed and said: "Master Baylor has sent someone a century-old ginseng. People who came back said that the only son has been lying in a coma, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to wake up."

Geng Yi frowned and said, "My concubine still remembers a prescription for reducing stasis, why don't you write it down and show it to the old doctor to see if it can be used?"

She also wanted to do her best. Although she didn't see the patient, her muscles and bones must be injured after the fall, and the chance of internal bleeding is very high.

If the blood congestion is not removed as soon as possible, it will be difficult for the person to wake up, and it will be even more difficult.

Fujin nodded and said: "Geng Gege finished writing and handed it over to Jixiang, and he will send it over as soon as possible."

After returning home, Geng Yi quickly wrote down the prescription of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, which is particularly effective in promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.

In addition, she also wrote the words that acupuncture and moxibustion are needed. Just to remove stasis, the stasis must come out from the acupuncture point.

Geng Yi wrote very quickly, and asked Ruyu to send it to Jixiang as soon as he finished.

To save people, you have to compete with King Yama for time, and the sooner you intervene, the more effective it will be.

She watched Ruyu leave, and then remembered to write a soup recipe for Song Gege.

Danggui Sini Decoction is much simpler. Danggui nourishes the blood, and the addition of cinnamon sticks is used to relieve the cold and help to clear the blood vessels.In addition, there are peony and asarum, both of which are used to enrich blood.

Guizhi is the monarch medicine, peony and asarum are the minister medicines, and the combination of the monarch and the ministers is to assist the angelica to exert its medicinal properties.

Then there is Tongcao, which is used to unblock the blood, so that the blood can flow, Song Gege's hands and feet will gradually become less afraid of the cold, and they will never be warm.

Then there is the red date, which is a key thing. It can help Angelica to replenish blood, and can prevent Guizhi and Asarum from being too dry, which can be used for relief.

After Geng Yi finished writing, he read it repeatedly, and knew that there was nothing wrong with his prescription. He turned around and saw that Ruyu hadn't come back, so he simply put down the prescription first.

Song Gege's question is not life-threatening, the old doctor's side is more urgent, and when the only son can recover, it will be too late for him to look at this prescription.

As soon as Geng Yi put down here, Nanny Liao came over with an old eunuch, followed by several nuns, who I guessed were sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Sure enough, Nanny Liao said: "This is Deng Banban, the Ministry of Internal Affairs specially sent a few nanny for Gege's purpose."

Eunuch Deng was thin, with a gray beard, obviously not too young, and saluted with a smile: "I have seen Geng Gege, these are all nuns carefully selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the rules are very good, and I specially prepared them before coming out. I’ve beaten it, please take a look at it.”

Geng Yi nodded, looked at the nuns, all of them looked very polite with lowered eyebrows, no one dared to look around: "All raise your heads for me to see."

The nuns raised their heads one by one, but they didn't dare to look directly at Geng Yi. They looked down slightly, but their faces were exposed.

On the left is a round-faced nanny, who seems to have a good temper.

Next to her was a long-faced nun, with a serious look on her face.

Next to it was a muscular nanny, who was half a head taller than the others, and looked very mighty, just standing still and not speaking was quite intimidating.

Geng Yi couldn't help but look at this nanny one more time, and the eunuch Deng next to him immediately stepped forward and said, "This is Nanny Hu, who is tall and strong, and a man of duty."

Just because the Ministry of Internal Affairs didn't know what Geng Yi wanted, so all the nuns of different categories were sent over for her to have a look.

The tall and mighty Madam Hu really didn't know where to go in the harem, and she didn't really want her appearance anywhere, so she simply sent her over to have a look, and she couldn't just leave her alone like this.

Eunuch Deng secretly glanced at Geng Yi, but nothing could be seen from her expression, at least she didn't show any frightened expression when she saw Hu Nanny.

Geng Yi was not in a hurry to choose, but first chatted with a few nuns, asking them where they worked before, where they came from, when they entered the palace, and so on.

None of the questions were particularly secretive, nor did they involve the palace, and the nuns answered them honestly.

Mother Hu is quite special, she was born in the south of the Yangtze River, because she was born with great strength and suffered a lot, and her family was too poor to support her, so she was sent to the palace.

Originally she was an ordinary court lady, her body was really good, she killed the people in front of her, but as she got older, she didn't want to leave the palace, so she became the maid in the palace.

Geng Yi asked Mammy Hu who was in the family, and Nanny Hu said in a muffled voice: "Back to Gege, the old father and mother have passed away from illness, and there is an older brother who is married and works as an accountant in a restaurant. A younger sister is married."

It can be said that the family's life is not particularly good, but it's not particularly bad, but Madam Hu will become a burden when she goes back, so she simply stays in the palace, at least she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing.

Geng Yi felt that Mammy Hu was quite open-minded, so he asked a few mammies what they were good at.

The round-faced nanny is good at women's reds, and she stayed in the sewing room for several years, and her eyes were really tired before she came out.

The long-faced nanny used to be a nanny who taught the rules to the little palace maids, so she was very familiar with the rules in the palace.

Geng Yi thought that this nanny was quite familiar with the way she taught others.

In addition to her great strength, Madam Hu is also very good at scheming and mental arithmetic.

Maybe it was inherited from the family. I heard that my father used to be a good accountant. Unfortunately, after he broke his leg and lost his livelihood, the family began to fall down. The old mother was not allowed to do odd jobs to make ends meet.

If Madam Hu can barely survive without eating much, but she can eat the food of the whole family by herself, and everyone will starve to death if she continues, she might as well enter the palace on her own initiative, at least she can eat enough, so as not to I have to go hungry at home.

After all, if you eat a lot, you will get hungry quickly, and Madam Hu will faint from hunger if she tries to eat less.

The entry into the palace was also proposed by Madam Hu herself, and the old father hesitated for a few days before reluctantly agreeing.

Geng Yi specially asked Ruyu to send the abacus and a book of account books, Hu Nanny's fingertips were beating so fast that there were almost afterimages.

After doing the calculations, she saw that they were all correct numbers, and she couldn't help raising her eyebrows.

Not to mention Geng Yi, even Eunuch Deng was surprised, Hu Nanny still has this skill?

She really doesn't show mountains or waters in the palace, so she's waiting here?

Geng Yi didn't hesitate, so he left Nanny Hu, and when it came time to settle accounts in the future, someone would help.

Nanny Liao remained silent, and when Geng Yi picked out a new nanny, he sent eunuch Deng out, and also took Nanny Hu to see Fujin, and then explained to her some rules of the palace.

Geng Yi nodded: "Then it's time for Nanny Liao, and Nanny Hu will follow along and remember."

Mammy Hu was full of surprise, she didn't expect to be left behind, she was nudged by Nanny Liao when she was in a daze, and then hurriedly saluted Geng Yi: "Thank you Gege, I will definitely remember this."

She was always disliked by others in the palace, and I was used to it. This time, there was no Humama, but it was because the chosen one started to vomit yesterday and had already been moved out. Naturally, it was impossible to send her away. Come to Geng Yi to choose.

Eunuch Deng suspected that it was one of the other two nuns who did the trick. He ruled out dissidents, but he couldn't find any evidence.

Who would have thought that this person who made up the numbers would be taken by Geng Yi!

Eunuch Deng thought that people's luck was coming, and they couldn't stop it. Isn't it just the end of all hardships and rewards for Mother Hu?

It is estimated that the other candidate mothers did not expect that a make-up Hu mother would beat everyone and then stay smoothly.

Fujin was also taken aback when he saw Nanny Hu, and he couldn't help wondering why Geng Gege was so timid, why would he choose such a tall and scary nanny.

But she saw that Madam Hu had clear eyes and was well-behaved, so she asked Madam Liao to talk about the rules and beat him a few times before letting him go back.

Not to mention Fujin, when the fourth elder brother went to Geng Yi's place at night, he was also surprised to see Humama, and said with a puzzled face: "You usually look timid, but you are not afraid to pick such a tall mama?"

Geng Yi asked strangely: "Nurse Hu is tall and strong, wouldn't it be great to help out with anything? She doesn't beat or eat people, so why would she be afraid?"

She wanted to mutter that she was not timid, but the fourth elder brother laughed: "It's true that you can't judge people by their appearance, as long as she is a well-behaved one."

He mentioned the external affairs again: "After the soup recipe you gave to the old doctor, he quickly used it after reading it. He drank two bowls of soup and medicine, and supplemented it with acupuncture. I heard that his only son woke up in the evening. I’ve been here for a while, although it’s not long, but I’ve finally passed a hurdle.”

If the old doctor's only son doesn't wake up these two days, I'm afraid he will be powerless.

After all, this is not modern times. There is no gastric tube or glucose to replenish energy. People are unconscious and cannot swallow food. In addition, the body has injuries, and it will gradually weaken. It is even more difficult to wake up. It may be impossible to sleep. woke up.

Geng Yi heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "It's good that I can help. It's also thanks to the blessing of the Lord. I was worried that the situation of the only son of the old doctor would be even worse. It must be that a good person should not die."

At any rate, after pouring the decoction and medicine, he could still wake up after the auxiliary acupuncture, which meant that the only son still had a chance to be rescued.

The fourth elder brother nodded and said: "This only son is indeed as superb in medical skills as the old doctor. He studied medicine a few years later than his apprentice, but he is better than blue."

It's no wonder that the old doctor's apprentice would attack his only son. With this only son around, he would have nothing to do with his own apprentice. In the future, he could only stay in the pharmacy to help his only son. How could he be so comfortable as a shopkeeper!

Geng Yi said: "Such a narrow-minded person will not have any great fortune in the future. Looking at his medical skills now, he is not bad, but he does not have medical ethics, and he will not last long after all."

If a doctor has no medical ethics, he can still say that he has excellent medical skills for the time being, but his medical skills will definitely stagnate in the future.

After all, he puts all his energy on eliminating dissidents, so why would he have the time to study medical skills and treat patients?

The fourth elder brother nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, that's exactly the reason. The old doctor is full of praise for the prescription. When the condition of the only son stabilizes, he will probably come to thank you."

Geng Yi said with a smile: "My lord has taken down the pharmacy, the old doctor is my subordinate, the concubine can help me to share my worries, the old doctor should thank lord Baylor."

The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "Your mouth is quite sweet, it's as if you've been smeared with honey today."

Geng Yi looked carefully, and found that the redness in the corners of the fourth elder brother's eyes had faded a little, and his nails were not as red as before. It seems that Yangshen Decoction is still very suitable for him.

For dinner today, she ordered Chef Ma's specialty steamed duck. After all, beef and mutton might be too hot for the fourth elder brother.

Originally Geng Yi heard the name and thought it was to put the plucked and washed duck on the fire and steam it over water. After listening to Xiao Zhuzi's detailed explanation, she realized that this dish is not easy to make.

Many ingredients are put into the duck belly and steamed together, including shredded ham, Chinese cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, glutinous rice, dried bamboo shoots and cooking wine, and the outside is poured with chicken broth, and then steamed thoroughly.

If the heat is not too big or too small, the outside of the duck will be burnt, but the inside may still be raw.If the fire is low, the inside and outside may be boiled.

It takes an hour to simmer slowly on medium heat to get out of the pot, and the meat is delicious and tender.

Geng Yi's mouth was watering when he heard it, and he looked forward to it when he waited for the food to be served.

Sure enough, I could smell the strong fragrance as soon as the food was served. There is no need to order anything else for this dish, as well as meat and soup.

The fourth elder brother ate very satisfactorily. Every time he came to Geng Yi's place, he felt that he ate very well.

In particular, Geng Yi will tell him why he ordered this tonight. For example, the duck meat is mild and nourishing without being too hot. Vegetables are stuffed into the stomach, and there is chicken soup to use after meals.

There are not too many meat dishes to make the fourth elder brother feel tired, but it is also enough to fill the stomach, about seven or eight percent full, and the portion is just enough for two people to eat, which is most in line with the way of health preservation.

Others put so much effort into it only because they cared about his health, and the fourth elder brother naturally accepted this kindness and ate this dish thoroughly.
