No Worries about Food and Medicine

Chapter 92: Sweet porridge

Views:

In the morning, Yu Jinnian was watching Ji Hong doing push-ups on the footbed beside the bed, while he was sitting in front of the desk, writing the internal scriptures from memory. Reciting is a basic skill, no matter whether he accepts apprentices or not, and whether he accepts Su Ting or not, he should write it down. Most of the medical books in the Great Xia Dynasty are kept private by doctors, passed on from master to disciple, and there are many medical books in the bookstore. These are messy and superficial foundations, which are difficult to achieve.

What's more, if he wants to open a medical clinic in the future, he can't be the only doctor in the whole clinic. After all, he needs to train some capable helpers, and it is best to have a few girls who understand medicine.

After practicing enough, Ji Hong was already drenched in sweat. He untied his obscene clothes, turned his head and saw the young man writing something solemnly, so he went over to take a look. He is weak and ill for a long time, and has read a lot of medical books superficially. Although he is not good enough, he can know the good and the bad, so he was amazed by what Yu Jinnian wrote just by looking at it.

He instantly forgot what he was supposed to be doing, leaned over to take a closer look, and sighed with a smile: "If these pens and inks are written into a book, you will really be able to save all living beings."

"It's not my credit, I just memorized what my ancestors said." After Yu Jinnian wrote "Follow the Tao and follow the Dharma, you will have a destiny", a drop of sweat suddenly fell down and wet the paper, he stopped writing, He looked up at Ji Hong in a daze. Seeing that his temples were drenched, and the front of his clothes was slightly open, revealing the muscular lines of his waist, he stretched out his sleeves to wipe away the sweat, and said, "Change your clothes, be careful not to catch a cold."

Like a slippery loach, he escaped Ji Hong's pursuit, slipped under his arms, and walked quickly to the wardrobe. Just when the closet door was closed, Ji Hong came up from behind without making a sound, and put his hand on his finger on the door knocker.

The smell of sweat is not heavy, it's faint, and there is nodding the smell of soothing incense that was burned last night, which is not annoying, but it makes Yu Jinnian feel restless, as if bubbles are popping up in his heart pool, he His back was stiff, he felt impulsive and a little scared.

Ji Hong turned his head and bit the side of his neck, the tip of his tongue snaked up his jaw, lingering on his earlobe for a moment: "Jin Nian."

"Hmm, um..." Yu Jinnian snorted lowly, his fingers tightened on the door knocker, but his back unconsciously moved closer to him, and when he finally pressed against a solid chest, he suddenly woke up again, laughing funny I feel like I'm not satisfied with my desires.

Ji Hong wrapped his arms around his waist and said in a low voice, "I have something to discuss with you."

Yu Jinnian asked, "What's the matter?"

Ji Hong said: "We—"

Before he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps in front of him, the front hall was disturbed, and all the diners made a noise. Amidst the noise, a shrill cry was particularly prominent: "Brother Xiaonian! Brother Xiaonian!"

Ji Hong just opened his mouth, but he had to close it slowly again, and the brows could not help but slightly frowned.

When Yu Jinnian heard the commotion, he didn't bother to continue talking with Ji Hong, instead he put on his outer shirt and pushed the door out. A young man was walking around in the small courtyard, he asked in surprise, "Ah Chun?"

Ah Chun rushed forward and frantically took something out of his sleeve. Because of his anxiety, he took a long time to find it. It turned out to be a piece of blood-stained cloth, which seemed to be hastily torn from some clothes. Tremblingly, he shoved the piece of cloth into Yu Jinnian's hands, incoherently anxious: "Brother Xiaonian, it belongs to brother... brother!"

Yu Jinnian unfolded the piece of cloth, and suddenly saw the words written in blood on the top, and a scribbled pattern was drawn next to it, which was in the shape of a bowl, but perhaps because of the urgent time, there was no time to draw it carefully, so it was crooked and ugly.

Ah Chun cried: "It's my brother, the clothes belong to my brother. Did something happen to my brother?"

Ji Hong changed his clothes and came out, and saw the words on the piece of cloth - "Be careful".

Everyone in Xin'an County knows that a small bowl is the symbol of a bowl of noodle restaurants. Even the little fool Ah Chun knows to show Yu Jinnian a piece of cloth. Is Jing Zhong trying to warn them of something? What are they supposed to be careful about? ? Yu Jinnian was at a loss, he didn't know where to start, and he didn't know who they would offend with a bowl of noodle shop, so Jing Zhong could send a letter of blood to warn him.

Ji Hong was serious for a moment, put away the cloth and said, "I will call Duan Ming and Shi Xing back in these two days to help take care of them." You are injured, so it is inconvenient to show up, let Ah Chun follow you, be careful in everything."

He immediately went to Fang's Inn to find Min Xuefei, and asked Shi Qinghuayi to be alert.

Min Xuefei cooked tea for the two of them, and said: "There are so many people in Beijing, maybe someone has found out about your whereabouts." He put down the teacup in his hand, and said worriedly, "My eyeliner in the capital also reported back. There seems to be some movement on the side, and Lu Dang is also quite restless. Shuluan, although Xin'an County is secluded, it is not a paradise. I know you don't want to be involved in the strife, but the current situation is like this. Now in the Jifu branch, you have the most important status, and you cannot escape no matter what... Shuluan, it's better for you to return to Beijing as soon as possible."

"That's the case." Ji Hong wiped the mouth of the cup with his thumb, hesitantly said, "It's just..."

Min Xuefei suddenly realized: "But that little thing is not willing?"

Ji Hong stopped him: "No. He is pure-minded and doesn't know what is going on in Beijing. Xin'an County is not a paradise for me to hide from the world, but it is a safe place for him. After entering Beijing, a careless move , I lost everything, but today I don’t know whether I should bring him to Beijing. Maybe this is the best place for him.”

Min Xuefei said: "If you don't ask, how will you know what he thinks?"

Ji Hong: "Let's see again..."

For a bowl of noodle shop, Yu Jinnian first cooked a can of sweet porridge with soybean milk and japonica rice, added a little sugar, this porridge nourishes the stomach and nourishes the deficiency, and it was cooked for Er Niang.

Then take the chicken breast, chop it, hammer it into minced meat, and cut the white radish into small hollow balls. The balls are the size of longan, each of which is fat and white, and rolls on the plate. Chicken soup was always simmering in the pot, and he coaxed Ah Chun, saying that it was just that his brother was inconvenient to go home, and at the same time used a small spoon to stuff the hollow radish yuan with chicken breast stuffing.

Put the stuffed radish yuanzi in the chicken soup and simmer slowly over low heat. When the meat is cooked, add some shiitake mushrooms and serve it out. This is the Stuffed Yuanxiao ordered by the previous guest, he set aside a portion for Ah Chun to eat, and looked at the porridge and soup with Qing Huan, and sent the dishes to the front hall by himself. There were broken clouds in the sky, and he stood in the courtyard, looking up at the flower vines gradually turning green on the west wall, feeling a little dazed as if he had been through the years.

A magpie fluttered its wings and landed on the wall. Yu Jinnian came back to his senses and saw Min Mao who came from nowhere, holding a few pieces of snacks in his hand, eating and eating, and said loudly: "This is a happy spring breeze!" Lou’s dim sum is so delicious, I’m still a little bit reluctant! Fortunately, Brother Nian, when we arrive in the capital, I’ll stay with Brother Ji San every day, waiting to eat Brother Nian’s cooking!”

"...What?" Yu Jinnian turned to look at him, "Us? Back to Beijing?"

Min Mao gnawed on the peach cake: "Yes! Brother Ji San is going back to Beijing!"

While Yu Jinnian was at a loss, he suddenly remembered what Ji Hong hadn't finished speaking in the morning.

Is he going back to Beijing

Sitting in the front hall was an old Taoist man with a gray beard and a patchwork bag, carrying an iron-speaking banner and a small brown dog at his feet. It's flattering. The old Taoist was chatting with diners nearby, Yu Jinnian brought up the stuffed yuanxiao, and fed a piece of food to the dog, but it was just a matter of convenience, but the old Taoist stopped him with a smile: "Little boss, how about a divination?"

Yu Jinnian was thinking about Ji Hong's return to Beijing, and wanted to forget it, but the old man had already taken out a lottery and a cup from his bag, and he also found it interesting, so he sat down and gave it a try. Before drawing the hexagram lottery, you need to throw the dipper. The dipper is shell-shaped, with one side flat and the other convex.

"What does the little boss want to do?" the old Taoist asked.

Yu Jinnian couldn't think of anything to count, so he said casually, "Then it's marriage."

The old man stroked his beard and smiled all over his face: "Please ask the little boss to throw the bamboo stick."

When Ji Hong returned to a bowl of noodle shop, he heard a young man's clear laughter coming from the front hall. He walked in and saw that Yu Jinnian was holding a bamboo stick in his hand. Give some money to reward the other party. As soon as he frowned, Yu Jinnian saw him, got up and dragged him over, pressed him on the bench, and said with a smile: "Old man, please do a divination for my brother, too?"

The old Taoist took the money, his eyebrows trembled with a smile, and immediately asked Ji Hong to stretch out his hand, and he gave him a palmistry.

Yu Jinnian bent his eyes to look at the Taoist priest, and seeing the other person's expression getting serious, he suddenly said "Oops", and asked nervously, "What's wrong!"

The old Taoist clicked his tongue in amazement, shook his head and said: "This son's fate is not fair, he seems to be rich in gold and jade, but he was lucky when he was young, with many disasters and disasters, he is a man of little blessing!" Then without waiting for Yu Jinnian to ask in detail, he He slammed the table again, "Oh! But you don't have to worry too much, young master. There is a transformation in a young man. You will meet someone who is destined by chance. You, my lord, can resolve disasters and solve difficulties, eliminate hardships and misfortunes! You can ensure both good fortune and good luck in this life, young master!"

Ji Hong couldn't listen anymore, got up and wanted to leave, then he heard the old man's nonsense again: "Master, you planned to go far north recently, but you are hesitant because of common affairs?"

"..." Ji Hong stopped abruptly, narrowing his eyes dangerously.

The old man took a peek at Yu Jinnian, coughed lightly with his fists around his mouth, frowned, and said, "Young master, you don't need to look forward and backward. Although the journey is bumpy and bumpy, as long as you are accompanied by lucky stars, you will be able to ensure smooth sailing, everything will be smooth for you." Prosperity."

Ji Hong smiled suddenly, tapped the table with his fingertips, and asked, "Do you know, sir, when did I meet this destined person?"

"This..." The old Taoist glanced wildly, and after talking about other things for a while, the old Taoist suddenly took out a Buddhist bowl for alms from the bag, poured the stuffed yuanxiao in front of him, and packed the bag with his hands and feet. , Called his old local dog buddy, stepped outside the door, and said, "You can't say it, you can't say it, this is a leak!"

As he spoke, he ran away and disappeared.

Yu Jinnian watched the Taoist priest slip away, and didn't make a fuss, just collapsed on the table laughing. Ji Hong turned around, sighed softly, and sat down by the young man, with some helplessness in his eyes: "Don't trust him, you're just a charlatan."

"I know." Yu Jinnian stared at Ji Hong and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "He just talked around in the front hall and inquired about a lot of things, and Yuan Bei also made some moves, the severity is different. Look at your clothes and expressions And the action, guessing like this before and after, of course, you can guess it all. Besides, when Min Mao came over just now, he yelled loudly, lest people don't know that you are going back to Beijing. Although these hexagrams are very confusing at first It’s amazing, but if you think about it carefully, it’s just a cliché.”

Ji Hong spat on Min Mao in his heart, shook his head and said, "I'm so happy to be cheated."

Yu Jinnian smiled: "Because he said what I want to hear! You are going back to Beijing, and he advised you to bring your lucky star, why am I not happy? I should reward him heavily."

Ji Hong was taken aback for a moment, seeing him get up and go to the backyard, he followed immediately.

Min Mao was teasing the cat in the yard, and raised his eyes: "Hey, Brother Nian!"

He raised his eyes again: "Hey, Brother Ji!"

The two entered the back kitchen one by one, and no one paid attention to Min Mao. Min Mao was depressed, and then he saw Qing Huan being kicked out, he felt a little bit of sympathy, so he took Qing Huan to tease the cat. Qing Huan didn't bother to talk to him, instead she went to play with Ah Chun.

Ji Hong lifted the kitchen partition to block Yu Jinnian's way, if the young man turned left, he would go left, and if the young boy turned right, he would also go right.

Yu Jinnian whispered: "Get out of the way, I'm going to fetch water."

Ji Hong didn't move at all, and grabbed his wrist: "You know everything?"

Yu Jinnian lowered his head and murmured, "I know what to do, but I don't know what to do. It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married. This is a matter of destiny. If you believe in the divination, take your lucky star with you to protect you from disaster." If you don't believe it, then it's fate, there is no need to explain in vain."

Ji Hong frowned, and wondered: "When did I say that one should be separated from the other?"

Yu Jinnian stared at the blue skirt in front of him, couldn't help raising his eyes to glance at him quietly, pursed his lips for a while, and asked, "Then will you take me?"

"Oh, you are not only my lucky star, but also a little debtor who comes to collect debts from me." Ji Hong sighed, and rubbed the corners of his tight mouth with his fingers, both helpless and affectionate, "Jinnian, I I'm just afraid that you won't want to part with the scenery here, and I'm also worried that you don't like the noise and cumbersome etiquette in Beijing."

Yu Jinnian snorted, and said, "How do you know I don't like it if you haven't been there? And why worry about it, you only need to worry about whether your carriage is big enough, and whether I can drag my family and my mouth to follow you." He added, "Well, I still have to bring my Tinker Bell. If you can pretend, I will go with you to the ends of the earth."

He thought to himself, Ji Hong once said that he could not give up power because of him, so the mountain is not just me, I will go to the mountain, it is just a step back from each other. He is very indifferent, he can live anywhere, whether it is a mountain of knives, a sea of fire or a jar of honey, it just depends on who he is with.

That person is Ji Hong, everything can be solved easily.

Thinking of this, Yu Jinnian couldn't help but smile.

Ji Hong was worried about things for several days and nights, but was dismissed by the young man Piao Piao. He didn't know whether to say that he was lucky enough to meet such a delicate young man, or that Yu Jinnian was too naive. Never take any difficulty seriously. Having said that, it would be too hurtful to say that the boy should be left in Xin'an County.

Yu Jinnian opened the earthen jar, scooped out a spoonful of sweet porridge and tasted it. Because he was absent-minded, his tongue was scalded by the hot soup, and his eyes were teary. Ji Hong hurriedly filled his mouth with cold water and told him to wipe his tongue. Stretch out to see if there are any blisters.

Facing the sunlight, Ji Hong carefully inspected his reddened tongue, Yu Jinnian dropped the spoon, and suddenly leaned forward to kiss the man. It was a hissing and painful kiss, and the hot and sensitive tongue rubbed against the tip of the other's teeth. He wrapped his arms around Ji Hong's neck and asked, "Ah Hong, is there a kitchen in your yard?"

"Why do you think of asking this?" Ji Hong supported him and nodded, "There is a small kitchen, what's the matter?"

Yu Jinnian shook his foot: "It's nothing, just thinking that it's really not good, so you put me in the kitchen and hide."

Ji Hong was really amused by his sudden whim, and also aroused by the picture of the golden house hiding the beauty, if it weren't for the pot boiling on the stove, he really wanted to hide the boy in the kitchen and do something. Someone in the front hall was urging the dishes, and it was hard for the two of them to continue entanglement, Yu Jinnian stuck out his hot red tongue, quickly fried two dishes, and sent Ji Hong to bring them to the front.

He walked out of the kitchen with sweet porridge and a small piece of fermented bean curd.

The clouds shake the shadow of the sun, and the sparrows sing.

Yu Jinnian cherishes the current situation very much, maybe this is the last stability for them. Erniang's condition has been relatively stable in the past few days. If she wants to go back to Beijing, these few days are the best time. When she arrives in the middle of Beijing, with one more famous doctor, Erniang's illness will have more hope, even if it just makes her sick. It's worth it for her to suffer less.

He pushed open Erniang's door with the food tray, and was saying warmly, "Erniang, get up and use some porridge water", but when he heard a jingle in the room, he felt bad, so he hurriedly put the food tray aside, He rushed in three steps at a time, seeing the scene in the couch, Yu Jinnian's face changed drastically in an instant.

There was a bright red pool in front of the bed, and Erniang was lying on the side of the couch with a pale complexion, clutching half a chestnut tightly in her hand, and was vomiting blood out of her mouth.
