"You have wounds on your body... How about you go to my house to change the wound dressing, and then take some medicine from the jade bottle. In two days, don't you have to go out to patrol the sea? Take good care of your wounds these two days, otherwise how can you protect yourself?" Home and country? I see, you will stay at my house today, and I will cook some medicinal food for your body to help you adjust!" Yu Xiaocao was really worried about Zhao Han's injury, if he met bandits a few years ago, How dangerous it is to drag your injured body to fight!
Saying that, she pulled up Zhao Han's sleeves like she did when she was a child, and walked back on the way. The four servant girls naturally looked up to her, surrounded by stars and the moon, and went to Yu's house.
"Hey, why is that girl Xiaocao back?" The women who were leaning against the wall, basking in the sun and taking out the soles of their shoes, were amazed when they saw the tall man beside Yu Xiaocao.
"It's the son of Orion Zhao... No, no, he's a general now. I heard that the son of the Zhao family is now a petty official, and he's in charge of a hundred or so people!"
"The son of the Zhao family used to have a good relationship with the children of the Yu family. He often took the Xiaocao siblings up the mountain to set up a rabbit and catch a pheasant. When the Yu family was in the most difficult time, if it wasn't for the subsidy from prey, life would be difficult. I know if I can survive it!"
"The son of the Zhao family will definitely be a general in the future. He is not a few years older than Xiaocao, the general and the princess... these two people seem to be a good match!" There is no shortage of gossip fire.
"Hush! Fortunately, King Yang didn't come back this time. If he hears about it, I'll hit you 20 times. See if you're still talking nonsense! No one in the village knows that King Yang treats Xiaocao very differently. Many people say that , Xiaocao is the appointed concubine of Prince Yang!"
"Don't talk nonsense! Xiaocao is now the princess, and the emperor personally sealed her. How can she be someone's concubine? I see, the position of the princess must belong to her!"
"What's so good about marrying into the prince's mansion? The masters with a little status in the town have three wives and four concubines. They fight and fight every day, and they are so annoying! In my opinion, it's not as good as the son of the Zhao family. The relationship between the two families is good. , and grew up together, knowing everything. Even if they take a concubine in the future, the Zhao family will not treat Xiaocao badly!"
…
A group of women chatted more and more lively, divided into two camps, one group agreed with Xiaocao marrying into the palace to become a princess, while the other thought that Xiaocao should marry into Zhao's family to enjoy the blessings. The two sides refused to give in to each other, and there was no dispute between them for a while.
Xiaocao took Zhao Han home, knowing that it was inconvenient to apply medicine to his back injury, so she wanted to do it for her, but was kicked out by a few maids. Men and women have different seats at the age of seven, and the lady is fourteen after the new year, so she doesn't know how to avoid it. In the end, Yingchun, the youngest, was pushed out to apply medicine to Zhao Han.
The hideous wound that spanned almost half of the back frightened the shy Yingchun. There was another wound, which should have been stabbed with a sharp knife, and went straight to the lungs. No wonder Mr. Zhao didn't sound right when he coughed just now. . Followed by a master who knows medical skills, Yingchun has learned a lot about medical principles.
She used the "disinfectant" given by the young lady to help Mr. Zhao carefully scrub the wound, applied a thick layer of golden sore medicine made by the young lady on the wound, and then wrapped it up again with gauze.
Outside, Wu Tong is carefully reminding the master: "Miss, you are almost a person, it is best to keep a distance from the opposite sex. Although Mr. Zhao is your childhood playmate, he is a man after all..."
"I understand what you're saying! However, there is one thing you have to remember: the doctor is kind. I am not only a girl, but also a doctor. We can't stop treating the patient just because the patient is a man, right?" Yu Xiaocao He gave her a blank look, took the medicinal materials from the medicine box, prepared several medicines and handed them to Wu Tong, "Don't follow me to kill pigs later, help Brother Han decoct the medicine."
"Ah? Miss, didn't you say that you want to take the servant to gain knowledge? The servant also wants to taste the taste of butchered vegetables!" Wutong put on a bitter face, and did not delay the movement of receiving the medicine bag in his hand.
Yu Xiaocao refused to admit that she was narrow-minded, and said sternly: "What's so good about killing a pig? It's bloody, don't scare you! After the medicine is ready, serve Brother Han to drink it, and then go with Brother Han. Don't worry, I'll save a seat for you next to me." As he spoke, he gave her a small look of "how about it, your master, I'm so interested".
At this time, Zhao Han came out of Yu Hang's room, followed by Yingchun holding the ointment. Yu Xiaocao went up to meet her and said: "Brother Han, you must not be able to sleep well on the boat, right? You drink this cup of honey water and sleep in my brother's room for a while. When the butcher dish is almost ready, I will send someone back call you!"
Zhao Han nodded, took the honey water from Chunhua, and drank it in one gulp. The honey water is sweet, like a smile on a little girl's face. He looked at the small dimples on Xiaocao's lips, and was slightly absent-minded, missing the warmth and moisture of the water reaching his lungs.
Sleeping on a bed full of sunshine, Zhao Han has never felt so relaxed physically and mentally. The wound on the back has just been applied with medicine, it feels cool and comfortable, and I no longer feel any burning pain, and even the dullness of the lungs has become more comfortable—could it be that the honey water just now added Xiaocao to treat internal injuries? panacea
Before he knew it, Zhao Han's breathing became more relaxed. On this sunny winter morning, he had fallen into a deep sleep. When Wutong woke him up and asked him to drink the medicine while it was hot, Zhao Han felt full of energy, and all the pain and lesions seemed to have left him. Knowing that this medicine was specially prepared by Xiaocao for himself, without hesitation, Zhao Han gulped down all the bitter medicine in one go.
Xiaocao, who went to grandpa's house to join in the fun, arrived at the yard of grandpa's house, and the big fat pig had already been slaughtered. The relatives and friends who came to help, those who shed their hair, those who cleaned their internal organs. Yu Hai and his wife didn't go to the Zhuangzi today, they were busy working in the yard.
A group of women, together with the eldest grandma, washed and cut, and were very busy. Soon, the pig's head was put into the pot, and the blood sausage was put into another pot. Mrs. Liu used her own unique secret recipe to help marinate the hoof and internal organs...
At noon, the yard was full of people who came to help. Yu Xiaocao's master and servant sat with the Yu family, and even Erya showed a naive smile, sitting beside Liu Shi and looked around curiously. Originally, the girls were unwilling to sit on an equal footing with the young lady, but Xiaocao half-truthfully scolded them before they sat down reluctantly.
It is said that the northerners are real, look at this pot of pig-killing vegetables, each of which is outstanding. Garlic white meat, pork and kidney bean stewed vermicelli, sauerkraut pork blood sausage, pig's head, garlic heart protection meat, roasted bone meat... The pig-killing dishes that look greasy, but taste delicious, Yu Xiaocao enjoyed eating.
In particular, the minced garlic meat, sauerkraut blood sausage and bone-in meat are Xiaocao's favorites. The four servant girls saw the master eating the black blood sausage piece by piece, chewing the flesh and bone with big mouthfuls. It was very rough to eat, but it could also arouse people's appetite.
Wu Tong didn't quite understand, even if it was the top dish in the delicacy restaurant, my lady had never tasted such delicious and sweet food. How could this rough and greasy food suit the lady's appetite? Look at the three girls, Yingchun, Chunhua and Qiushi, who are also enjoying themselves. She couldn't help picking up the chopsticks, and took a chopstick towards the meat that didn't look too fatty, and put it in her mouth to taste carefully—well, it tasted light and chewy, that's all.
Yu Jiang's daughter-in-law, who was sitting beside her, said with a smile, "Girl, you have to dip this pork belly in garlic soy sauce, otherwise it won't taste at all." As she spoke, she also demonstrated a piece of meat, dipped it in garlic and put it on the table. In the mouth, chewing with gusto.
In the past, the mother in the mansion taught: a qualified big maid should not eat food with strong smell on weekdays, even meat dishes should not be eaten too much. I was afraid that there would be a strange smell on my body and mouth, which would offend my master. In the afternoon, I still have to serve my master. Is it really good to eat something with a strong taste like mashed garlic
Seeing Wutong's hesitation, Yu Xiaocao patted her on the shoulder, personally gave her a piece of heart protection, and said: "I will give you half a day off in the afternoon, and you don't have to wait around. Eat whatever you want, don't be shy. It's not refreshing at all! This white meat looks fat, but it doesn't taste greasy at all, try it! And this blood sausage, my grandma makes the most authentic, you can't eat it anywhere else!"
When Xiaocao saw that she was picking up a piece, the muscles on Wutong's face twitched, and she chuckled in her heart, and put all the dishes that Wutong was unwilling to pick up with her chopsticks into the bowl for her.
Seeing his master's mischievous smirk, Wu Tong almost wanted to cry. But the food rewarded by the master must be eaten with tears. She plucked up the courage and ate the minced garlic meat in her mouth first. Sure enough, the heart-protecting meat dipped in garlic and soy sauce has a much richer taste, and the more chewy it becomes, the more chewy it is, with a unique flavor.
Garlic white meat, white fat meat, looks very greasy. Wutong pinched his nose, stuffed half a palm-sized piece of white meat into his mouth, and chewed vigorously as if he had a grudge against someone. Chewing and chewing, the expression on his face no longer seemed generous. Huh? Strange, it is not greasy at all, but has a different fresh fragrance.
As for the blood sausage, Wu Tong saw her lady eating one piece after another, out of trust and admiration for her master, she didn't have any psychological barriers when eating. Anyway, it's not that I haven't eaten stewed large intestine before, what is hypocritical
Wutong let go, picked up the dishes that he had no chance to taste before, and tasted all of them. Every dish that looks crude and simple tastes different and delicious. Seeing this little girl in the city, Yu Jiang's wife finally let go of her cheeks and began to eat, she was relieved.
The simple people feel that making every guest happy is the success of the host's hospitality. In the eyes of Yu Jiang's daughter-in-law, no matter how valuable Yu Xiaocao's status is, she grew up under her nose, and she is considered her own family.
