The military doctor was stunned, "Practice with pig's feet? Is this okay?"
"Of course you can," Zhou Liru said, "My sister-in-law and I practice with pig's feet. After the practice, we can chop up and stew it. It won't be wasted. By the way, I have a recipe for stewing pig's feet here." Do you want it?"
The military doctor hesitated: "Yes?"
Zhou Liru didn't even write, and just read a string to him, which made Man Bao look at her several times, and when she came out from the military doctor, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you still memorizing the recipe?"
Zhou Liru sighed and said: "Is there any way? Every time our dormitory supervisor buys pork legs and comes back to practice, they have a way to deal with it afterwards. It's only me. When I say I want to stew pig legs, they all hate it and burn fire to fetch water." I can't grab them for such a thing, so I can only find a prescription for them, so that I have contributed my own strength, otherwise I would be ashamed to partner with them to buy pork legs."
Zhou Liru is their dormitory supervisor, even the youngest one in the entire imperial medical office, and the youngest one is several months older than her, plus she is Zhou Man's niece, so everyone can't help taking care of her.
But she has a good temper and gets along well with everyone. In the Imperial Medical Office, you have to practice suturing. Rabbits are hard to find, and every time you suture, they must be alive. Started with pork leg.
It is not easy to throw away this thing after practice, and they are reluctant, so they take it and eat it.
The Imperial Medical Office has a kitchen, but it doesn't allow students to handle these things privately, so these things need to be handled by the students themselves.
Man Bao asked, "Who did you ask for the recipe from? It seems a little different from what my sister-in-law usually cooks."
"I got it from the big shopkeeper," Zhou Liru said, "Sister-in-law, have you forgotten? When you were still in Jishitang, the senior brothers followed you to learn to sew. At that time, the pig's feet we ate were made like that."
Man Bao said with disgust: "It's not as delicious as sister-in-law's cooking, it's too bland."
The pork leg was bland…
Zhou Liru didn't speak anymore, but she also thought so in her heart, the pig's feet made by her aunt were very delicious.
Zhou Liru suddenly felt a little hungry, Man Bao also said quietly: "I'm hungry."
Duan Inspector was hungry and had only cakes for them to eat, plus a big pot of mutton soup.
Because of the parting tomorrow, Governor Duan got a lot of spoils, so he generously took two ingots of silver to buy a few sheep from the neighboring tribe and killed them. They kept one and distributed the rest to the soldiers.
Everyone celebrated lively and lively for half the night, then went to rest, and got up early the next morning to put away the tent. After packing up, everyone stood on both sides of the official road to say goodbye.
Governor Duan glanced at the road hidden in the mountains, and said: "Be careful all the way."
Bai Shan thanked Duan Cishi with a smile, everyone also wished Duan Cishi a smooth journey, and then they separated after the sun rose and went back to back, one team was going to Liangzhou, and the other was going to the Western Regions.
Man Baoqi glanced back on the horse, and said to his friends: "I don't know when the letter sent back by Mr. Duan will reach the capital."
She wrote a letter to Xiao Yuanzheng, because it was a business matter, so she handed it over to the official post station to deliver the letter, but most of the post station in Liangzhou was demolished, and even the person who sent the letter was gone.
Man Bao also included a private letter to his family by the way, even Yin or several others also wrote a letter and brought it in together.
Governor Duan was also riding on the horse, glanced at the package carried on the soldier's back, and shook his head slightly. Sometimes these young people are so smart and capable that they don't look like teenagers, and sometimes they are lively and jumpy like children.
Master rode up from behind and came up, "My lord, our people saw with their own eyes that they passed the mountain safely."
Governor Duan nodded in satisfaction, and the master couldn't help asking: "My lord, did you just give them the opal?"
Governor Duan sighed and said: "Heroes come from youth. Mr. Bai is right, that thing is only a gem when it is sold, otherwise it is just a stone. Do you think we can find more suitable ones than theirs with our abilities?" Buyer?"
Master thought about it and really couldn't.
Governor Duan knew someone who would spend thousands of dollars on a horse, but he would definitely not spend thousands of dollars on a stone, oh no, a gem.
Thinking of the whole process of being persuaded, Duan Cishi couldn't help sighing again, "Heroes are born in youth."
The teenagers were galloping their horses against the rising sun, and even Yin Ru let the horses trot, and ran wantonly after them.
Mr. Zhuang also let go of his worries for several days, leaned against the wall of the car and fell asleep.
The two pedestrians sat in the carriage and counted the trophies they got. They didn't contribute much, but they also participated, and they saw that they had a share, so they also shared some.
Not to mention, this sum alone is more than their annual salary, so it won't be a loss if they come out this time, and it will be no loss when they return to Beijing to buy some things from the Western Regions.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that there is nothing wrong with walking so leisurely.
But this time their speed was not too slow. It was just that they entered a small county town in one day, a small county town without a gate.
Master You walked with them. He was quite familiar with this road and had walked it three times, so he unconsciously acted as a guide for them.
Because he found a lot of treasures, Governor Duan generously returned most of Master You's goods to him, and he didn't need to go back to Liangzhou to register. He, the governor, did it for him directly and cheaply.
Although a batch of goods were lost and several fellows died, Mr. You cheered up and continued to go to Yumen Pass.
Only when he gets to Yumen Pass and sells these goods, and then buys some popular products in the Central Plains to sell back, can he have the money to make a comeback and settle down the family members who died.
This time he didn't dare to leave first, so he followed Zhou Man's convoy. For this reason, he basically went to find Mr. Zhuang for company and conversation every day.
It was the first time for Man Bao and the others to see the desert. They didn't realize it at first, but the places they walked were getting fewer and fewer plants. Only then did Bao realize that this was no longer a lush green grassland.
So the few people who were still riding on the horses immediately got off their horses and changed into the car. Man Bao rummaged through the belly of the car to find something, and quickly found the curtain cap, and handed it to Zhou Liru, "Fortunately, we prepared this in advance."
Zhou Liru touched the light gauze on it, and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, who prepared this? Why didn't I see it when I packed my luggage?"
Man Bao said: "It was given by the second sister Fu, and she also gave me two cloaks."
The two of them put on their cloaks, and then they poked their heads out to look at the sand. After looking at it for a while, they felt that it was inconvenient, so they lifted up the gauze.
Although it's not so hard to see clearly, it's hazy and uncomfortable.
Man Bao stared at the distance with wide eyes, "It turns out that this is the desert, it really is full of yellow sand."
