Doctor Lu felt the pulse carefully and nodded with satisfaction. "You have been well treated. Your Qi and blood are much more vigorous. Before, your Qi couldn't carry your blood, but now it is back to normal. I will prescribe a dietary supplement for you. You can take it when winter comes."
Zhulan thanked him, "Thank you for being old."
Doctor Lu took the pen from the table and wrote directly, "Keep the prescription. This is a food tonic recipe that is best eaten in winter."
Zhulan took it, and asked, "Can my husband eat it too?"
Doctor Lu felt a little annoyed. This couple really cared about each other. "Of course."
Zhulan was happy. Zhou Shuren was exhausted this summer. Although he was full of energy, he had lost the meat he had worked so hard to build up. It was a good time for him to replenish his body in the winter, so he bought a whole sheep this year.
Zhulan arranged for Doctor Lu to rest, and Li came back happily, "Mother, five taels of silver, five taels for two chairs."
Zhulan took it. This money was just enough to replace the chairs and tables in the main hall. "Well done."
Li was not heartbroken this time. She understood that the money was a thank-you fee from the neighbor, not for her. "Mom, Wang Rong gave me this money. He gave it to me without me saying anything. His words made me feel comfortable. I didn't expect that this girl was not bad."
Zhulan hummed. As long as Wang Rong kept understanding in his heart, it would not be bad no matter how hard the future was. "Cook two more meals today. I'll go to the backyard to pick vegetables. You steam the buns first."
Li rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'll go cook now."
I wasted the whole morning on Wang Ru. What bad luck!
After Zhulan had picked the vegetables, Zhou Laoer also came back, holding four large grass carps in his hands. "They are quite big, and they are still alive and just caught?"
Zhou Laoer said, "I was lucky. I happened to meet Zhang Wu who was going to the county to sell fish. I bought four big ones. I ate two for lunch and saved two for Dad to eat when he came back in the evening."
Zhulan had already figured out how to cook the fish. "Put the fish in the tank while it's still alive. We'll have boiled fish for lunch."
Zhou Laoer said: "The red pepper is just right to get rid of bad luck."
Zhulan, “… … ..”
She felt that these words were just to comfort herself and were of no use at all.
There were six dishes for lunch, boiled fish, chicken stewed with potatoes, braised tofu, tofu with green onions, two vegetarian dishes, and the staple food was steamed buns.
Doctor Lu didn't feel embarrassed to give the recipe. He loved boiled fish the most. "It's really authentic. It tastes better than the ones in restaurants."
As the eldest brother, it was Zhou Laoda's turn to entertain. If he hadn't been unable to handle the situation today, his mother wouldn't have been in charge. He knew that he needed to practice, but he was still reliable when entertaining ordinary people. "My wife is a good cook. If you like it, eat more."
Doctor Lu was very happy with the meal. "It's not only good, it's no worse than the chef's."
This family is quite interesting, they have a good atmosphere and he has a good vision.
After the meal, Boss Zhou personally sent Doctor Lu and his son back to the county.
After Ming Teng and the other guests left, he refused to go to the clan school. He was really scared. "Brother, I won't dare to fool you again. I will focus on copying big characters in the future. Don't let me go to the clan school."
He was not allowed to make any noise or play in class, and his face would be pinched after class. He felt like his face had become fatter!
Mingyun felt that the lesson was not enough. This kid enjoyed himself. When he was as old as Mingteng, he used a wooden stick to write, while his younger brother used a brush to learn calligraphy. His younger brother should not be ungrateful for his good fortune. He must learn this lesson. He said with a stern face and a blank expression, "If you don't come with me when I count to three, I will be angry."
Ming Teng felt a chill on his back. His brother was scary when he was angry. He didn’t know what had happened to his brother this year. His parents were scared of his cold face. Every time he annoyed his brother and hoped his mother would talk to him, his mother would say something earnestly: “In the future, the whole family will depend on your brother. You should listen to whatever your brother says. Didn’t you see that your mother doesn’t act like a mother? This is called self-knowledge. You should understand it too!”
Ming Teng looked at his grandmother, who smiled at him but didn't say she would help him. She sighed and said, "I'll go with you."
Mingyun pulled his brother's chubby hand over. He was writing big characters every day, so why didn't his hands get thinner
Zhulan watched the two brothers leave and sighed, "What loving brothers!"
Li, “… … ..”
She didn't see any love, she only saw the eldest son bullying the older son!
Xue Han, “… .”
The friendship she and her mother understand must not mean the same thing!
Zhulan looked for Zhou Laoer but didn't see him, so she asked Zhao, "Where is Laoer doing?"
Zhao knew her husband very well. Wang Xin plotted against his mother today, and the second son has been holding back his anger. He should still show his merits. "My husband went to see Wang Lao San. Recently, Wang Lao San and Wang Lao Si have been getting close."
Zhulan immediately realized that Zhou Laoer was planning to plot against Wang Laosi, so he went to Wang Laosan first to set a trap. "What's going on at Wang Laosan's house recently?"
Zhao whispered, "The eldest girl from Wang Laosan's family is looking for a marriage partner recently."
Zhulan realized that Zhou Laoer went after Wang Xin. Wang Xin was indeed at the age to get engaged. Zhou Laoer was the one who started the fire. As for what happened next, that was Wang Laosi's business. Zhou Laoer was causing trouble for Wang Xin and she was venting her anger. Laoer was a cruel person who picked on your sore spots. "When Laoer comes back, let him take money from you to replace the chairs and tables in the main hall with new ones."
Zhao readily agreed, "I'll remember."
Zhulan went back to the house to make clothes. She still had three sets of clothes to make. As for Li, she tried to make mooncakes again. After a week, the snow skin mooncakes were made, but they could not be stored and would not taste good after a long time. Li was very dedicated and focused on overcoming the problem. There was not much time left for Li, as she would have to send them to Dong Chuchu in a few days.
In the evening, Zhou Shuren came back in a carriage, which was Yao Zheyu's carriage. Zhulan thought that Yao Zheyu had come again, so only Zhou Shuren and Xiao Si got off the carriage.
Xiao Si held two brocade boxes in his hands. "The young master said that he wanted to thank the scholar today. He will return to Pingzhou tomorrow. Sorry that he cannot come to thank you in person. He sent the gift to show his gratitude."
Zhu Lan motioned for the eldest brother to take it, "Thank you for me, sir. You are so polite."
Seeing the exquisite gift box, the gift must be down-to-earth. She likes down-to-earth things.
Xiao Si got in the carriage and left. The carriage soon disappeared on the street. Zhu Lan then asked Zhou Shuren, "Did he come specially to pick you up?"
"You guessed it right. He was waiting for me at the gate of the county government office. I took the carriage back and got to experience the official carriage."
Zhulan waited for the boss to leave the room and lowered her voice, "Tell me, why did he leave suddenly?"
Zhou Shuren, "The more you try to hide something, the more obvious it becomes. The commotion he caused today was not small. There must be people watching him, so he naturally pretended not to cause trouble."
"What a scheme. I think it's gone too far. The male protagonist dislikes Wang Ru from the bottom of his heart. I don't know if he will take extreme measures. However, Wang Ru saved his life today. If the incident is too serious, she will expose it in the open. Shi Qing is watching her. At least she won't disappear for no reason."
Zhou Shuren hummed. A scream came from next door. Was it Wang Ru who woke up? But the person screaming was not the right one!
