The Weight of the Red Mansion Walks the Road of Life

Chapter 49

Probably because there are things that can alleviate the pain to a certain extent, or because they have seen the hope of treatment, even the Xue family can't get things together for a while, but Baochai's Life is still much better.

And as she grew up little by little, her ability to control her emotions improved to a higher level than when she was a child, so the incidence of this disease became less and less—although the same, Jin Suo The pain-relieving effect of tablets is also gradually decreasing.

But at least in the short term it doesn't look like there will be any major problems.

Although Baochai's name is not in line with the old habits of the Lin family, Baochai lived up to the reputation of the daughter of the Lin family.Especially before the youngest son of the Lin family was born, Lin Ruhai actually acquiesced in his heart that he would only have one daughter in his lifetime, so he raised Baochai as his own heir for many years, until the youngest son was born. Daughter relaxed a bit.

However, this relaxation does not mean that Lin Ruhai favors boys over girls. In fact, with the birth of his youngest son, Lin Ruhai will only love his daughter more.

Generally speaking, aristocratic families are more strict with sons who need to inherit the family business, but they are always extremely doting on daughters who are about to get married, just like Jia Daishan always wanted to be stricter with Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, but for Jia The youngest daughter, Jia Min, is doted on in every possible way.

In Lin Ruhai's eyes, the title of the Lin family had already disappeared in his father's generation. If the Lin family still wanted to become a family of officials, they had to count on their youngest son to pass the imperial examination in the future.As for the daughter, as long as she pampers her, she will choose a son-in-law in the future and give her a heavy dowry. There is no need for her to live too hard, as long as she can do everything according to her preferences.

As for being stricter with her before, it was just because Baochai had no brothers to support her if she had only one daughter in her life. Baochai already has brothers, so naturally it is different.

However, it is probably because she was reared in the past few years. Although Baochai is quite talented in reading, after all, she is more partial to the affairs of the housekeeper and director.Although he also loves to read and practice calligraphy on weekdays, but most of the time he just treats these things as a pastime. After all, he prefers to learn from his mother Jia Min how to be a housekeeper and director of a girl's house, and even looks quite talented.

Although Lin Ruhai is a scholar, since he has been able to hold the position of Yanzheng, he has been sitting there for many years. Naturally, he is not pedantic. Restricting his daughter from studying, even because his wife was a famous talented woman in the boudoir, he also looked forward to her daughter's talent and aura.

But... If the daughter is not very interested in these things, Lin Ruhai is not the kind of person who would criticize her daughter, so naturally she will follow her daughter's wishes.

Counting the entire Yangzhou territory, no one knows that Lin Ruhai has always loved his daughter the most. Even because Baochai is obviously not disinterested in studying things, the Lin family even hired a person to teach in the library, and the teacher is the Lin family. big girl.

Despite the fact that recruiting a female student may not be a decent job for a scholar, but because the female student does not take the imperial examinations and is not an official, and the class time is also short, it is actually very attractive to many people who plan to continue the scientific examination— ——Especially the generosity of Shu Xiu from the Lin family, and the fact that Lin Ruhai, a magnanimous official, is in charge, so that they can teach while taking exams at all, but it is really the best choice.

The elder girls of the Lin family haven’t reached the point where they should avoid men and women, as long as there are more maidservants around them, that’s all. Yes, it is a good move that can be advanced, attacked, retreated, or defended.

Although Baochai loves to learn from Jia Min to be a housekeeper and director, in fact, her hobbies are quite fraternal, and she is interested in almost everything, and she is quite receptive to Lin Ruhai's teaching her the Four Books and Five Classics. , it is impossible for her to take the scientific examination, and she doesn't have to study stereotyped articles, even if she studies miscellaneous books, no one cares.

Baochai also formally learned from her husband when she was five years old. Before that, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min taught some in their spare time. Although Baochai himself may not be very healthy, he has always been studious, and he was born with some Aura means that the progress of this study is not to mention far faster than the female sons of ordinary families, even faster than the male sons of scholarly families.

Naturally, Lin Ruhai is quite proud.

And even Baochai's physical problems finally had a turning point in her second year of studying.

As I said before, because many of the ingredients on the prescription are rare things, the Lin family, as an official family, is not easy to find them with great fanfare, so Jia Min simply asked for help from the Xue family, who is also the family friend of the four major families in Jinling, and the Xue family As a merchant here, it is not so conspicuous to look for the things on this prescription.The so-called scholars, farmers, businessmen, even if the Xue family has a detached status among the merchants, they are still a little less angry than the officials. Besides, there are only orphans and widows left in the Xue family. Save face, naturally do your best.

Although many things on the prescription are very rare, but Xue’s business has spread all over the country, and Aunt Xue is willing to do her best, so she urged the people below, and only two or three After years of hard work, I gathered all the things on the prescription, and then sent all the rain, dew, frost, snow, flower stamens and other things to Lin's house in one jar, which was enough for Lin's house. Prepare several medicines for Baochai.

Basically, even if it can be done once and for all, it is not a problem to be able to manage it for more than twenty years.And the things on this prescription are only things that can be met but not sought after, and they are not so precious. With the buffer of the past twenty years, even the Lin family can always collect a lot of bits and pieces.

Knowing that her daughter's prescription will be ready in sight, Jia Min can finally breathe a sigh of relief after handing over all the medicinal materials to the pharmacy.

Jia Min has not been happy for so many years after marrying into the Lin family, and she did not eat less of her son-in-law prescriptions publicly or privately, but she herself did not know what caused her daughter's heat poisoning.Because the poisonous diseases of the two sons and daughters were brought from the womb, and because the doctor was afraid of taking responsibility, he only said that Baochai's heat poisoning and the youngest son's frailty and sickness were all brought by Fang Zi, who begged his son. Min felt extremely sad.

That's all for the son, it's not uncommon for boys to be weak when they are young, and most boys will become stronger as they grow older, which is actually not a problem.On the contrary, if a girl has been weak since she was a child, then her future marriage and future will definitely not be smooth, and her whole life will be ruined.

Now that her daughter's illness is cured, Jia Min's heart can be relieved a little.

The Xue family was obviously very considerate of the Lin family's request, and the things they sent were actually more than ten times more than what was listed in the prescription. Together with the flower stamens saved by the Lin family and some extra common medicinal materials in the prescription, it was finally made up to seven times. As for the medicines of Batanzi, if Baochai gets sick once every two months, it will be enough for her to take for more than ten years, not to mention that Baochai's self-control is getting better now. If the meatballs are accompanied out in the future, it is probably enough for her to use for the rest of her life.

----split line----

Baochai actually didn't know much about the things on her prescriptions, because she was only three or four years old when the monks and Taoists came home, at most she remembered such a thing. Things don't actually know.

So Baochai was actually rather curious when Nanny Lin carried a brocade box containing a dozen or so pills back to her room.

Although a lot of medicines were formulated, most of the pills were packed into jars and buried under the tree densely according to the prescription, because they were afraid of losing their properties. Only a dozen or so pills were picked out and put in boxes. Here, the mother hid it in Baochai's room, and prepared it to eat in case Baochai fell ill again.

As a very happy little girl living with both parents, curiosity is naturally a standard in life. Baochai has always been a good-natured master, and she is quite close to everyone in the house. Bringing a box in, it was inevitable that I was a little curious.

A naturally good-looking, smart little girl acts coquettishly and foolishly to an elder who has watched her grow up since she was a child. Naturally, there is no request that cannot be fulfilled.

Even though the pills were very expensive, she couldn't stand her sister's curiosity, so Nanny Lin still held the brocade box and opened it carefully for Baochai to have a look.

I don't know whether it is the effect of the dew from the stamens in the prescription, or the smell brought by the package of medicine primers, the left and right balls do not have the bitter taste of ordinary medicine balls at all, but instead exudes a cold fragrance, which smells quite sweet.

"This is the medicine that my wife prepared for my sister. The prescription has been obtained for some time, but there are quite a few medicinal materials in it that are not good, so I only prepared it now. Although this ball is fragrant, it is medicinal. Well, my sister can't touch it casually, if my sister suffers from fever again in the future, I just need to take this medicine pill with the cork decoction and it will be cured, and I won't have a bad cough anymore." Mother Lin was very excited Patiently explained to the curious Baochai.

Although the pill looks sweet at first glance, Baochai was quite curious when he looked at the medicine at first, but when she heard Mammy say that it needs to be decocted with cork, thinking about the bitter taste in her memory, she immediately frowned again. Small face.

The author has something to say:

a little late...

In fact, I don’t really understand what Baochai’s heat poison is, does it often get angry...

I saw a lot of people saying that Baochai’s heat poison is actually unsolvable, because the Lengxiang pills are gone after eating, and then I went to the original book, and the original book said that Laitou monk gave a pack of fragrance, I don’t know what it is In other words, I have always thought that Yao Yinzi is similar to the catalyst of traditional Chinese medicine, something that can be used repeatedly... QAQ... Anyway, Daiyu Baochai is the protagonist in this article, so I can't set Baochai as unsolvable sick...
