At this Mrs. Liu's age, it should be the age when there are seniors and juniors, and her husband is by her side, but it is a bit too strange to go to such a far place alone to visit relatives.
Mrs. Liu also seemed to know that her appearance is really easy to attract suspicion, and she probably thought about what to do early in the morning, so she just smiled sarcastically: "Yeah, actually, I don't live in Jincheng, I live near Qishan, Because of the previous avalanche, my family... ”
"Everyone in my family was killed. I was sick and went to the city to seek medical treatment, but I just happened to escape this disaster."
Yun Shang looked at Mrs. Liu, lowered her eyes, and sighed faintly: "Sorry, I didn't know that..."
"It's okay." Mrs. Liu smiled very reluctantly: "I couldn't accept it at first, but after a few months, I also figured it out. Maybe, this is the destiny. It should be in my destiny. suffered."
Yunshang smiled: "The business in my clinic is not very good, so I have some free time on weekdays. After the Qishan avalanche, I also went to Qishan to treat the injured people. That disaster..."
Yun Chang shook her head, with a sigh: "It's too miserable, so many people died."
"Yes, it's too miserable." Mrs. Liu bit her lips: "Oh, don't talk about it, it's all over."
Yun Chang looked at her fixedly, not wanting to miss the change in her face: "It's just that later, just over a month ago, I heard many people in the city discussing that the avalanche was not a natural disaster. , but a man-made disaster... ”
Mrs. Liu nodded: "I have also heard that if a man-made disaster occurs, then Xia Houjing..."
Madam Liu gritted her teeth, her eyes were red: "Then Xia Houjing deserves to be chopped into pieces."
Yun Chang raised her eyebrows in surprise. In fact, she had seen Madam Liu cowering and nervous in the face of interrogation by city guards, and she was going to a very safe place like Wu'an Prefecture. In fact, there was some doubt in Chang's heart.
I suspect that she has something to do with Xia Houjing, maybe it is Xia Houjing's spy who arranged to investigate the news in Jincheng
It's just that when she mentioned Xia Houjing just now, when she mentioned that the avalanche in Qishan might be a man-made disaster rather than a natural disaster, the hatred in her eyes could not be faked.
Yun Chang withdrew her gaze: "Yes, I regard human life as worthless."
Yun Chang shook her head and said nothing more.
Madam Liu lowered her head, only looked down at her hands, and did not speak again.
The caravan was marching, but the weather was getting hotter and hotter. At noon, the caravan stopped in the town and found an inn for lunch.
Yun Chang got out of the carriage, looked up at the bright sun in the sky, then turned to look at Li Guanshi: "I'm afraid it's not easy to travel in this weather."
Manager Li nodded: "It's a bit hot, people and horses can't stand it, so we're going to have a rest at this inn after lunch, and start our journey when the sun is about to set. The weather is cool at night, just in time for our journey. "
Yun Chang was not surprised. Many caravans have to adjust their rest time in summer, usually resting in the afternoon and staying up late at night.
Mrs. Liu seemed a little uncomfortable, she frowned, and waited for Li Guanshi to go away to arrange things, then lowered her voice and asked Yun Shang: "Doctor Xia seems to be more experienced, caravans are like this Do you rest in the afternoon and go on the road at night?"
Yun Chang smiled: "Occasionally, I will go out to the doctor with the caravans that buy and sell medicinal materials, and I will look at some medicinal materials from various places by the way, but I understand a little bit. It is summer, the weather is too hot, and the sun is strong in the afternoon. If you are on the road, people and Horses can't bear it. So when many caravans run business in summer, they will choose to recuperate in the inn in the afternoon, and go on the road in the evening and morning."
Yun Chang looked at Mrs. Liu: "After dinner later, Madam, go to sleep for a while, and rest for a while if you can't sleep. Although we can catch up on sleep in the carriage when we are on the road at night, but falling asleep in the carriage Not very comfortable after all."
"If we don't adapt to this upside-down morning and evening, we will be very tired all the way and our bodies will not be able to bear it."
After Yunshang finished speaking, she remembered her current identity again, smiled and lowered her voice and said, "If Ma'am can't sleep, after lunch later, I can grab some medicinal herbs for sleeping and calming the mind, and some of them can be made into pills. , some in a medicine bag, put it under the pillow, it can help you sleep."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu glanced at Yun Shang quietly, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded lightly: "Okay, then thank you, Doctor Xia."
There were quite a few people transporting the medicinal materials this time. Steward Li brought eight men to load and unload the goods and count the medicinal materials. Chang and Mrs. Liu, a group of about thirty people.
Thirty people crowded the small inn to the brim. Fortunately, because it was noon, there were quite a few people staying and sleeping in the inn, but Yun Chang really got a room with that Mrs. Liu.
After the two had eaten, they were about to go outside.
Guanshi Li saw them, and quickly stopped them: "Where are you going?"
Yun Shang smiled: "Mrs. Liu is not used to sleeping in the afternoon and traveling at night. I am worried that this upside down will drag her down, so I want to take her out to find a pharmacy to buy some medicinal materials for sleeping and calming the mind, and prepare some pills and medicine packs for her." .”
Li Guanshi couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "We are transporting medicinal materials, and you still go outside to buy medicinal materials?"
Yun Shang also smiled: "I don't think it's inconvenient to find so many medicinal materials, and it's inconvenient to take them out? I don't use much, so it's okay to buy some."
"No need." Li Guanshi said: "I have a medicine box here, which contains some medicinal materials that are usually used. Tell me what you want, and I will see if there are any ready-made."
Yun Shang heard what he said, and did not refuse: "30 grams of yam, 20 grams each of Poria cocos and mother of pearl, 15 grams of cornus, 10 grams each of rehmannia glutinosa, Moutan bark, Alisma, Bupleurum, angelica, and white peony."
Li Guanshi nodded: "These are not precious medicinal materials, I have them here, I will go and get them for you."
Seeing that Guanshi Li didn't say anything, Mrs. Liu glanced at Yunshang again, thinking to herself that Guanshi Li has been working in the pharmacy, so he must know some simple medical skills. Since he didn't say anything, this prescription should be no problem of.
Yun Chang didn't know what she was thinking, and after a while, Manager Li brought out the medicinal materials.
Yun Shang thanked her, and went back to the house with Mrs. Liu. She took a paperweight from the room, crushed some of the medicinal materials, made them into pills, wrapped them in cloth, and handed them to Mrs. Liu.
"I'm sorry, I should have sewed up this medicine bag to have a better effect, but since I was young, I only read medical books to prescribe medicine, and I'm not very good at needlework."
Mrs. Liu quickly shook her head, took the needle and thread out of the bundle, and sewed it into a medicine bag.
Yun Chang glanced at the sewing kit in her hand, and raised her eyebrows secretly.
