Cui turned her head to look at the hourglass, but couldn't find it after searching for a long time, so she asked, "What time is it?"
Man Bao's consciousness sank into the system and looked at the time before saying: "It will not be correct in another quarter of an hour."
Cui was surprised, "I've been asleep for nearly an hour? Why did I just squint for a while?"
Mrs. Tang and Man Bao were also surprised. They had been talking non-stop for almost an hour? No wonder the mouth feels a little dry.
The two of them picked up the teacups to drink tea together.
Cui looked at the sunlight outside and asked, "Where are your husband and the others?"
The girl waiting outside the door heard it, and immediately came in to reply, "Master, they are talking in the garden."
Cui Shi nodded, did not ask her to ask questions, and waved her back.
She said to Man Bao: "It's rare to sleep so well, I will stay at your house for a while today."
Man Bao said: "Eat dinner here too."
After thinking about it for a while, Mrs. Cui looked at Mrs. Tang, and Mrs. Tang smiled and said, "I'm free."
Apart from her father-in-law, she is the oldest in her family, and unlike Cui Shi, she also has a mother-in-law on her head.
Cui Shi and Man Bao laughed and said: "Then bother."
They had nothing to do all day long, so Man Bao simply asked Cui Shi, "I don't think your appetite is very good, is your nausea serious?"
Cui nodded and sighed, "I want to vomit just looking at something meaty."
No wonder she didn't look like she had much appetite at lunch today.
Man Bao thought for a while and said, "Let me think of some recipes for you to eat?"
Cui nodded again and again, "I was just about to tell you that I can't drink the medicine now. The doctor prescribed the miscarriage medicine. I eat half a bowl, but I have to spit out a bowl."
Man Bao became worried when he heard this, "It's so serious? Then should I give you acupuncture?"
Cui Shi nodded again and again, and couldn't help but smile, "Okay."
Man Bao said: "It's good to pierce it every five days. I'll go to your house?"
After thinking about it, Cui shook her head, "I'd better come to your house, you are so busy every day, you are too tired to make this extra trip."
Mrs. Tang couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm afraid you thought of it yourself to get some air?"
Cui smiled and said nothing.
Naturally, Man Bao couldn't be happier to be able to spend less time on the road. He nodded and said, "Okay, come on, I'll let the kitchen cook a bowl of porridge for you, and after a short rest, I'll give you an injection."
There is no need for Man Bao to say it in person, someone will notify you if you say it outside.
The kitchen quickly delivered a bowl of porridge, and a small dish of pickled vegetables was placed on the tray.
Cui didn't eat much at noon, and she didn't have much appetite when she saw porridge, but after eating a mouthful of porridge and pickled vegetables, her mouth became fluid and her appetite increased.
She ate a bowl of porridge, looked at the bowl in her hand and was speechless for a while.
The girl Yingyue who was waiting at the side was very happy, and quickly asked: "Madam, do you want another bowl?"
After thinking for a while, Cui nodded and handed the bowl to her.
Yingyue looked at Manbao with some embarrassment.
Man Bao smiled and said, "Just go to the kitchen and get it. I don't have much else in my house, so porridge is enough."
Several people watched Cui ate three bowls of porridge in a row. Madam Tang closed her slightly opened mouth and said, "You have a bad appetite, don't you?"
Cui shyly put down the bowl and said, "I don't know what's wrong, but my appetite has improved."
She paused and said, "Your pickles are delicious, crisp and crisp, and very appetizing."
Man Bao glanced at the pickled vegetables in the small bowl, and said: "This is pickled by my sister-in-law. If you like it, I will pack a jar for you and bring it with you later. But don't just eat this dish, you can also eat other dishes." Some vegetables, meat dishes, if you can’t smell fish, then eat some meat soup and egg soup, that’s okay too.”
Yingyue at the side quickly wrote it down.
Cui said with a smile: "Then thank you very much. I thought this kid was greedy and he liked to eat other people's food."
Man Bao found a pen, ink and paper from the desk beside her to write the menu for her. Mrs. Tang found a fan from somewhere and shook it gently, leaning on it to watch her write.
After a while, I couldn't help laughing and said: "Your menu is written in detail, but how did I hear that your cooking skills are average?"
Man Bao said: "That's because I haven't learned it, but I can still recite recipes."
Mrs. Tang asked, "Do you still have to memorize the recipe? What are you doing memorizing this thing?"
Man Bao said solemnly: "All herbs can be used as medicine. Of course, these vegetables are the same. Not only vegetables and vegetables can be used as medicine, but also all kinds of meat have their own uses, so there is a saying of diet and health. Naturally, if the food is well matched It is equivalent to a prescription, so you have to memorize the recipe."
As for doing it by hand, she actually knows how to do it. After all, most of the dishes on the menu are boiled and stewed, which is not difficult, provided that the taste is not important.
Regarding this, Man Bao is also very confident, "Don't you still pay attention to the taste of the medicine when you take the medicine? Why don't you just drink it with your head down, and it tastes whatever it should be."
Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Yang: ...
Madam Yang took out the menu from her hands and gave it to Yingyue, saying: "Okay, let them worry about this kind of thing."
Man Bao nodded.
Mrs. Tang also looked away, and asked, shaking her fan, "I just saw several recipes on it that I haven't seen much before. Where did you get these recipes?"
"It was exchanged with Dr. Ning of Baohe Medical Center, and it was passed down from his family," Man Bao was a little proud. "This is not a borrowed book, but a cookbook with annotations directly given to me by their family."
Hearing that she was very powerful, Mrs. Tang asked in a daze, "What did you give him in exchange?"
"A "Hundred Ten Prescriptions" has prescriptions for more than 20 diseases." This is a medical book divided into five volumes, but there are still a lot of arguments in it, and each disease has different prescriptions. situation and medication recommendations, so only twenty prescriptions were printed in such a thick book.
This medical book is her textbook. After buying the book from the encyclopedia, she simply paid points to print a few copies. She likes to use it to exchange things with others.
Now, more than half of the medical books in Manbao's study are bought from the encyclopedia, and the rest, except for sporadically bought from bookstores, are all exchanged for habitual reading and then copied, or directly exchanged. of.
Mrs. Tang didn't know that this medical book was easy for her to come by, so when she heard it, she couldn't help nodding her forehead, "Aren't you at a loss?"
It is a loss if the medicine prescription is exchanged for the food recipe, even if it is a medicine meal, right
But Man Bao shook his head and said: "Knowledge is not valued in this way. Anyway, when they ask me, I have to say, how good it is to change things. It saves my time and I also get something."
Mrs. Tang: ...
Cui smiled and said, "You can think about it."
Man Bao laughed and said: "Of course, if I can't think about it, then how hard are the people who write, print, and distribute books?"
In fact, what she wanted to say was that she couldn't think about it, how much couldn't she think about the encyclopedia that opened the library for people to borrow and read
There is endless knowledge in there, and you can buy it with just a few points. It would be great if they had such a library here.
