The strange doctor who followed her back then once said that the formation of scars is inseparable from the stagnation of qi and blood and the lack of smooth running.
To prevent the formation of scars, it is best to take blood-activating drugs since the wound has not healed. After the scabs fall off, add a secret muscle-building scar-eliminating ointment. It is a two-pronged approach, combined with medicated baths, acupuncture, massage and other auxiliary techniques. Effect.
But no matter how familiar Tuobayan is with the recipe, and how effective the recipe itself is, the purpose of removing scars is based on the premise of having sufficient resources.
To put it bluntly, General Tuoba could not afford the money for dispensing medicine.
The Qiao family's mother and daughter were not well-off. Half of the alimony that Qiao Chunyi and Tuoba Xiu received when they divorced was spent on the housing estate, and the other half had been spent over the years. The rest was a small amount. In part, she thought that her daughter would go to college in the future, so she specially created a card and deposited it as an education fund, and made up her mind not to move it no matter how difficult it was.
No matter how Tuobayan struggled after she dropped out of school, Qiao Chunyi didn't move the money until she went home that day and found her daughter lying in a pool of blood. She panicked. After calling 120, she quickly took out the card from under the bed and took it to the hospital for payment I paid for my daughter's surgery and subsequent hospitalization.
Tuobayan took out the half-month expenses from Nurse Qiao's mouth, and she refused to stay any longer, and insisted on going home and raising it by herself. Although Qiao Chunyi thought that she should stay in the hospital for a few more days, she couldn't bear her daughter's softness, so she went through the discharge procedures and went home to recuperate.
The mother and daughter boarded the bus with their packages. Since Tuobayan was reborn, her activities have always been a small area centered on the hospital. She did not know the exact location of Qiao's family. Dian Dian followed behind Qiao Chunyi, and didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he entered the house.
The Qiao family's house is on the second floor of an old-fashioned building with a total area of more than 70 square meters. There are two bedrooms and a living room. The kitchen and bathroom are small and unimpressive. Since there is no restaurant, meals are only available in the living room.
However, Qiao Chunyi is very interesting in life. There are tablecloths, dust covers, and fabric storage baskets from her old-fashioned sewing locomotive, and they are decorated with cheap green plants such as spider plants.
Tuobayan pushed the door and entered her bedroom. As expected in the diary, large glass mirrors were installed on the three walls. They were filled with various beauty and fashion magazines and books. On the desk in the corner was an outdated one. old-fashioned desktop computer.
She put her things down and started tidying up the house. Tuobayan flipped through the books one by one, sorted them and piled them up, and then pushed the stacks of books under the table. Without thinking, when she looked up, she saw a small brass key stuck with scotch tape under the bottom of the desk. .
Tuobayan tore off the tape, took off the key, and turned around with her fingers.
If there is a key, there must be a lock. She searched around, and sure enough, she found a small tin box from the shoebox under the bed. Tuobayan tried to insert the key into the keyhole, which was indeed correct.
When she opened the box, the contents inside made Tuobayan feel a sense of surprise that she had nowhere to go after breaking through the iron shoes, and it took no time to find a surprise. The box was actually a small treasury that Tuobayan had accumulated over the years! There are a total of seven pink hundred-yuan bills, plus other fifty and twenty yuan and loose change, for a total of more than 1,400 yuan.
The general's previous family was rich enough to rival the enemy's country, and the various trophies confiscated from the Xiongnu tribe and the treasures bestowed by the emperor were piled up in the treasury. However, when he died, it was estimated that it would be cheaper for the concubine and the sons of the cheap servants. Thinking of this, Tuobayan couldn't help but feel a little regretful and distressed. I should have set fire to the imperial city, and let the emperor and his black-hearted wife. Go to the street together!
Tuoba Yan sorted out the banknotes, tied them with rubber bands and put them back in the box, locked them and put them in the shoe box under the bed, and continued to organize her room.
At noon, Qiao Chunyi's mother showed her skills and made three dishes and one soup. The soup was stewed beef brisket with fragrant and delicious tomato, a dry fried tenderloin, a braised hairtail, and a plate of garlic vegetables. The two held their rice bowls and ate meat and soup for a full meal, and Tuobayan couldn't help but praise: "The dishes cooked by my mother are the best." Qiao Chunyi was very proud of it.
Naturally, so many dishes can't be eaten in one meal at noon. Qiao Chunyi cleaned up the stove in the kitchen, and Tuobayan was responsible for putting the leftovers in the refrigerator, then wiping the table and mopping the floor. Qiao Chunyi carefully controlled the speed of the water flow, and quickly brushed the pot with the hand-cooked broom bought on the set:
"Yanyan, today is the first day to go home, so my mother cooked so many dishes carefully. From now on, it will be a rough meal."
Tuobayan answered cheerfully, and tied the full garbage bag tightly: "I was just about to say, our family is not a big family, we don't need to be so particular about eating, I will eat whatever my mother does in the future, I am now Don't be picky eaters. You can rest assured."
"Hey!" Qiao Chunyi responded, turning her head and snickering, her daughter is really grown up and sensible.
After tidying up the house, Qiao Chunyi put on a blue pinstriped supermarket uniform shirt, picked up her bag and said apologetically to Tuobayan, "I'm off to work. Today, the supermarket is doing inventory at the end of the month, so I might have to work overtime. I can't go home for dinner tonight. At that time, you can use the microwave to heat up the lunch dishes, and there is change in the paper drawer on the sofa, so you can buy whatever you want."
Tuobayan nodded, Qiao Chunyi picked up the two garbage bags tied in front of the door, and hurried downstairs.
Pricked up her ears and listened to the door opening in the corridor, Tuobayan rushed to her room and saw Qiao Chunyi threw out the garbage from the window, all the way out of the family home.
After a few minutes, Qiao Chunyi should have gotten on the bus, Tuobayan lay on the ground and dragged out the shoe box under the bed, opened the iron box pressed inside with the key, counted five hundred dollars and put it in her wallet. He took out a few coins from the paper box and stuffed them into his trouser pockets.
She put on her shoes, put her purse, parasol and water bottle in her backpack, and went straight to the Chinese herbal medicine market.
Under the scorching sun, Tuobayan chose the medicinal herbs from the cheap scraps stall. This kind of stall is half real and fake, but she has a keen eye, and she can distinguish the fake medicinal materials and defective products mixed in the real one at a glance. After wandering around like this for an hour, she basically bought all the astragalus and Dozens of medicinal materials, such as angelica, salvia, leeches, etc., are sorted and wrapped by the vendors in paper and tied together with thread. Finally bought a cheap casserole for frying medicine.
Going home with these things, Tuobayan made another difficulty. It was not suitable to decoct at home. Qiao Chunyi would find out if the taste was too great, and it would be difficult to explain it at that time. She walked around the house and suddenly noticed the abandoned factory building outside the west window, and she suddenly had an idea in her heart.
She made a field investigation and found a dilapidated courtyard with an old water well in the courtyard. The courtyard was desolate. Although it was a little dilapidated and dilapidated, it would not collapse for a while. Just use the backpack to transport the required things in two trips.
Tuoba Yan cleaned up the relatively less dilapidated North House, cleaned it briefly, and picked up more than a dozen intact bricks to build a simple stove. This is not difficult for her. Back then, when she led the troops into battle, they set up camps on the spot, and Tuoba Yan was used to doing these tasks and it was easy.
I took a bucket of water from the well and tasted it, and the water was still very clear. Tuobayan sorted and processed the medicinal materials, soaked a portion of the package in water, then ignited the medicine jar to sterilize it, boiled it three times and poured it out, and then started to decoct with confidence.
After being so busy until it got dark, he made a strange and pungent soup.
