Daiyu's wife in the Red Chamber

After handing over the few prescriptions needed at present to her uncle, Wei Ruolan put them aside and didn't ask any more questions. She just followed her uncle's advice and practiced martial arts at home in order to become a blockbuster in the siege of Iron Net Mountain in the future and seek a bright future.

Before getting a large batch of high-quality medicinal materials, Wei Ruolan thought about it before taking it internally and externally, and then distributed the copied medicinal recipes to everyone.

First honor grandma, then Father Wei and Mrs. Wei, whether they use it or not, Wei Ruolan has done her best.In the end, they were given to Feng Ziying, Liu Xianglian, Chen Yejun, Han Qi and others in turn, and at the same time, told them what the old doctor Wang said, so that they could use it according to their physical conditions, and the last one was given to Lin Tao, the steward who guarded the old Lin family house. .

Lin Tao was originally Lin Ruhai's companion, Lin was Lin Ruhai's Lin, his surname and first name were given by Lin Ruhai's father, and his wife was Lin Ruhai's nanny, she was very respectable in the Lin family.The couple had no children for half their lives, and they never adopted children. They were always loyal. Lin Ruhai originally planned to arrange for them to leave their citizenship and donate some silver and land for their retirement. Please guard the old house in the capital and pay attention to the news of Daiyu in Rongguo Mansion.

Lin Ruhai asked Nanny Wang, Xueyan and others about Daiyu's experience in Rongguo Mansion in detail. Lin Tao was also aware of it.

As Lin Ruhai's confidant, Lin Tao knew Wei Ruolan's position in front of Lin Ruhai, the money lent to Wei Ruolan had been in Lin Tao's hands, and Wei Ruolan was also the one who helped take care of Wei Ruolan's purchases of bricks, tiles, wood and stones.Hearing that Wei Ruolan's prescriptions have the effect of nourishing blood and nourishing qi, he immediately understood the benefits to Daiyu, thanked him again and again, and went to consult the imperial physician who had given Daiyu a pulse the next day, and then asked his wife to greet Daiyu, Present the available prescriptions to Daiyu, and ask Madam Liu to adjust and use after Daiyu's pulse diagnosis by the imperial physician.

Because Wei Ruolan asked not to mention herself, Lin Tao's family did not mention the origin of the prescription, only that they got it from a wealthy family.

At that time, all the big families that had been passed down for many generations had many treasured recipes, which were not passed on to outsiders easily, and were only given to their own daughters as dowry to show the demeanor of the family, including various recipes, medicinal prescriptions, medicinal recipes, and wine-making recipes. , Rouge Fangzi, etc., just like books, the more prescriptions, the longer the family inheritance.The Lin family also had many prescriptions. When finishing the family business, Lin Ruhai packed them up and left them to Daiyu.The prescriptions that Daiyu currently uses to regulate her body are passed down from her family, and she only uses them after consulting famous doctors in the south of the Yangtze River.

Picking up the prescription and looking at it carefully, Daiyu said: "It's hard to do my best for you, so I'll keep it."

Lin Tao's family was puzzled, so they hurriedly asked why.

Daiyu said with a smile: "Now I also use the good recipe for nourishing blood and Qi, which is very suitable for the disease, because it is a delicious medicinal diet, not the bitter juice that used to be comparable to Coptis chinensis, and I don't want to eat. Now my appetite is much better. Recently I haven't taken ginseng Yangrong pills for more than half a year, and my body is better than before, so there is no need to change the prescription within a year or so."

After hearing this, Lin Tao's family told Daiyu what the imperial physician had said, suggesting that she change the prescription after consulting the imperial physician.

Before coming here, Lin Tao went to consult the imperial physician, not only asking whether the prescription was available, but also specifically asking the old imperial physician whether it was better to use the prescription given by Wei Ruolan or the one Daiyu was using.

The prescription used by Daiyu was prepared by Lin Tao when it was prepared in Jiangnan, which means that Lin Tao also has a prescription.After the comparison, the imperial physician who knew Daiyu's deficiency thought that the prescription given by Wei Ruolan was better, because it not only nourishes blood and Qi, but also strengthens muscles and bones. It can be used internally and externally, and the effect is better. The prescription Daiyu is currently using It is only to replenish blood and Qi, but the muscles and bones are still weak.

Nanny Liu took the prescription and read it, but said: "Girl, I think what Sister Lin said is very true, it will benefit the girl more, so why not use it? Tomorrow, I asked the imperial physician to consider the medicine. If the girl is worried about medicinal materials, there is no need for it. The girl forgot that at the beginning of the year, I went to the household department to receive salary, silver, lumi and other things for the girl, and went to the palace to receive the spring reward. In the past, all the proceeds from the farmland and the shop were used for the common people, and now the Holy Majesty and the Empress have remembered it in their hearts, and specially instructed the old slave to go to the Imperial Hospital to get all the medicinal materials used by the girl."

What Liu Mama didn't say at the time was that Lin Ruhai's meritorious deeds are known all over the world. Naturally, the Holy Majesty and the Empress would not ignore Daiyu after conferring a reward. Instead, they kept it in their hearts and always paid attention to it. Died of infirmity.

When the Queen asked how Daiyu was doing in Rongguo Mansion, Madam Liu understood and told about Daiyu's embarrassment in Rongguo Mansion.

The medicinal materials used in the medicinal diet include red dates and longan and many other valuable medicinal materials, such as ginseng, cinnamon, and bird’s nest. Using ginseng, cinnamon, bird's nest and other things, many maids and women think that Daiyu is troublesome, and the master may not be comfortable for everyone. Daiyu naturally does not want to add trouble to Rongguo Mansion. Send a few eunuchs out to buy.

The treasury is short of money, but the palace is not short of things. The queen is happy to have the grace of the above words to show her virtuousness.

Grandma Liu saw that most of the medicinal materials used in the prescriptions were rare and not stored in the house, and they needed to be taken internally and externally for a long time without interruption, and she immediately understood the reason why Daiyu didn't want to change the prescriptions.

At this time, Lin Tao's family became clear, and his heart was sad and distressed. If the adults were still alive, if the Lin family had never been romantically dispersed, the only young lady in their family was so precious, why would he worry about a mere medicinal material?Even the medicinal materials treasured at home are enough for the lady to use for a lifetime and there are still leftovers.Later, he was afraid that these medicinal materials would turn into fly ash and lose their medicinal properties after being collected tightly. Lin Ruhai made the decision. Except for some short-term collections left for Daiyu, the others were either converted into pharmacies or donated to frontier military use.

Lin Tao's family said: "Miss, don't worry about medicinal materials. The master told me that the old house has been lacking in popularity for many years. It is better to rent out the two old houses in the capital and Gusu after repairing them. I don't know how far Gusu is. The old house was only rented out at the end of last month, and half a year’s rent has been paid, a total of 1000 taels. Lin Tao kept everything for the girl, not only the medicinal materials, but also what the girl wanted to eat and use. Just send her father-in-law to come out and tell us. Bought it and brought it in."

Lin Ruhai was afraid that the rent might not fall into Daiyu's hands when the rent was sent to Rongguo Mansion, so he gave Lin Tao this order and considered everything carefully.

Daiyu hurriedly asked: "The house is rented out, where do you live? Do you have a place to live?"

Hearing that Daiyu didn't ask other questions, but only asked her address, Lin Tao's family was very moved, and replied: "Don't worry, girl, most of the houses in the back street of the house belong to our family. They used to be used by side branches and servants, but now many The servants have all been dismissed, and many houses have been vacated. We live in a yard alone, and rent out the rest, and we can earn 30 taels of silver a month. But the girl, please remember to ask the doctor Ming for a better one. Fangzi takes care of your body, don’t disappoint the master’s painstaking efforts.” Even if Daiyu’s offspring will not have the surname Lin, but after all, they are the blood of the Lin family, and the current plan is to ask Daiyu to take care of her body.

Recalling Lin Ruhai's last words, Daiyu felt sad, "Don't worry, I can do anything else, but I will not insult myself. I have sworn in front of my father that I will not talk about life and death lightly in this life. I will ask Mrs. Wang tomorrow Come, let me ask how to use the prescription. As for the medicinal materials, I still have some spare money in my hand, and I have a salary every year. It will be enough to send my father-in-law out to buy them for about a year and a half. When I really run out of medicine money Then find Tai Hospital or Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin."

Nanny Liu secretly decided to go back to the palace to repeat Daiyu's understanding words in front of the queen, but Lin Tao's family was even more sympathetic, saying: "The money in the girl's hand is kept for flowers, and when the filial piety is done, the girl Going out for entertainment, treating guests, giving gifts, buying clothes and jewelry, there are many places to spend money. The 1000 taels of silver in our hands belong to the girl, and we will go to buy medicinal materials when we go back. Why don’t we keep it for now? There is only one thing that needs to be troubled Girl, I hurriedly sent the recipe early in the morning, but I forgot to copy a copy at home, and I will take a copy of the copy with my own handwriting. If the girl refuses to agree, Lin Tao and I will cry to the master!"

After hearing this, Daiyu had to agree.

Hearing her let go, Cheng Bi hurriedly went to get the inkstone, Songyan poured water to grind the ink, Qingtan spread the paper, and Zi Hao took a Hu brush from the pen stand.

Daiyu took the pen, dipped it in the ink, and copied the prescription word by word. When the ink was dry, she handed it to Lin Tao's family, and said with a smile: "My handwriting is not as good as the original one on the prescription. You can read it. Let it go." He also ordered Zijuan to put away the prescriptions with better calligraphy than his own, so that he could have a look at it with Mrs. Wang tomorrow.

Not long after Lin Tao's family left, Daiyu read a book, stood under the eaves and teased the parrot on the shelf, taught it to read poems, and suddenly heard it say: "Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"

Daiyu laughed: "People come every day, why did they stop? I don't know who else comes?"

Without saying a word, Shi Xiangyun came in surrounded by a group of maids and servants, four gold bracelets on her wrists jingled, and a bright red gown with slanted skirts made her brighter and brighter, and her actions were very free and unrestrained. Then he laughed and shouted: "Old ancestor, old ancestor, here I come! Did ancestor miss me?"

She couldn't wait for the servant girl to lift the curtain and announce, so she opened a corner of the curtain and went in. After a while, there were bursts of laughter in the room. After listening carefully, it was indeed the voices of Jiamu, Baoyu and Xiangyun.

Daiyu was weak and weak since she was small, and she envied Xiangyun's health very much. She really was as quiet as a virgin and moved like a rabbit. She didn't know if she could be like an ordinary person after using countless good remedies for nourishing blood and Qi. I saw Xiangyun and Baoyu coming out of the main room with smiles on their faces, and came side by side to their side. Behind them was another person, Baochai.

Xiangyun suddenly paid homage to Daiyu, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Respectfully, the county lord Jin An, I heard that the county lord is driving back to Beijing, and I specially borrowed a plate of tea and fruit from my ancestors, and I invite the county lord I don't know if it's okay to enjoy the face and have a small gathering inside?"

Everyone laughed, probably because although it was a salute, it was not a full salute, and they didn't bow down, which seemed a bit joking.
