Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 31 Pharmaceuticals
Is there any woman in this world who is willing to make things difficult for her daughter, but if she doesn't do so, her daughter's status will be hard to keep. The balance between the two is the lesser, and there is no way to send a woman to the palace to compete for favor.

Mrs. Tai nodded with a dazed expression, squinted her eyes and said: "Yes, the empress is so difficult in the palace, and the family members don't worry about it, causing trouble for the empress all day long."

"Old lady, where do you start with this? Who is causing trouble to the empress again?" Nanny Sun said with a bit of sympathy. She also cared and loved the Concubine Xian whom she had looked up to since she was a child.

"Who else could it be except Wangqiuyuan?" Mrs. Tai said with a cold snort, "In the past, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess was so kind to your empress. Every time she entered the palace, she would visit her, even in front of the queen mother and the emperor. Say good things for the empress, but last time, when His Highness entered the palace to pay his respects, he was very indifferent to the concubine Xian, and gave the empress a great deal of shame. What is this if it is not anger?"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Tai's voice has become severe, "If I knew she was such a troublemaker, I shouldn't let her in no matter what."

Grandma Sun was shocked when she heard the words, and then said: "How can this matter be blamed on the empress? What's more, this little Su family was forced in by the British government. What does it have to do with our Hou's mansion? With the empress It's even more difficult to beat, after all, when Xiao Su entered the door, the empress had already entered the palace, how could His Highness anger the empress?"

After Madam Tai vented her anger, she calmed down a bit and said: "Since Xiao Su entered the Hou's mansion, she is naturally a member of our Huo family. If she caused trouble, of course our family should bear the responsibility. However, the empress also said On the 26th of this month, let me bring Xiao Su into the palace to pay my respects, but I don't know what the purpose is."

According to the regulations of this dynasty, on the 26th of every month, the family members of Jiaofang can enter the palace and wait for a visit.In addition, it is necessary to hand over a sign and ask for instructions to enter the palace. After the queen agrees, she is allowed to visit the palace.

Sun Nanny smiled and said: "Since the empress said so, she must have a perfect plan. Does the old lady still believe in the empress?"

Mrs. Tai couldn't help but nodded when she heard the words. Her daughter was unusual since she was a child, and she never let herself down. Later, she really had a great fortune. Even if the current situation is not very good, she believes that with the ability of the empress, no matter what No matter what happens, it will definitely be saved.

During Su Wan's recuperating period, she was not idle either.Because Lord Hou has been visiting her recently, the relationship between the two of them is much closer than before, and Su Wan dares to ask him some unreasonable demands.

For example, Su Wan said that recuperating from illness was boring, so she asked Lord Hou to send her some books, such as some history books, poems, songs, medical books, and even books introducing various mountains, rivers, geography, customs, and so on.Lord Hou is not a stingy person either, he sent many books directly to decorate Su Wan's study.

With these books, Su Wan not only passed the time, but also had a more intuitive understanding of this era.Of course, her favorite thing to read is medical books.

She is a person who cherishes life very much. This time she finally got a healthy body, and she will never spoil it easily.

Especially after this illness, she felt the importance of medical skills more and more.Therefore, she made up her mind that not only should she not let go of the medical skills she learned in her previous life, but she had to study them more carefully.

In order not to make people doubt her medical skills, she has never deliberately concealed her interest and talent in medical skills. Even Lord Hou knew that she was a little fascinated by studying medicine.

As the wife of Marquis of Changwu, Su Wan would be the first to refuse if she wanted to show her face to save people's lives, but if it was just one of her interests and hobbies, then no one would care about her.Moreover, everyone didn't think she could learn anything.

Su Wan also didn't want to hang the pot to help the world, she just wanted to ensure the health and safety of herself and her family.

Moreover, she believes that no matter what era it is in, it is always better to know some medical skills.

She had checked her own pulse before to see if she was really infertile, but the final result made her a little disappointed.At least with her current medical skills, she is helpless.

However, she wasn't too sad, because she didn't want to have a child with a man she didn't love, and after having a child, she was tied to the Hou Mansion, and she might not be able to break free for the rest of her life, which made her a little unwilling .

Not only that, but her child will have to live under the shadow of his original wife's son-in-law for the rest of his life, being compared everywhere, which is definitely not a good thing for the child.

That being the case, it is better not to.She can also live without care and carelessness.

Su Wan made no secret of her interest and love for medical skills, and asked people to buy her a lot of medicinal materials and various pharmaceutical utensils, for example, medicine hammers for pounding medicines, and medicine powders for smashing medicines. Everyone in the Hou Mansion didn't take it seriously when they saw her tossing around, some even secretly laughed at her hobbies and couldn't get on the stage.

The vast majority of ladies and ladies have their own hobbies, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and songs, which one is not more noble than this medical skill, even making rouge cream is better than playing with these smelly herbs.

In her previous life, Su Wan helped her grandfather prepare various pills, powders, granules, ointments, etc. Many medicines were made by herself in public Chinese medicine clinics, and some people even came here to buy Chinese patent medicines prepared by her grandfather herself. Su Wan is very familiar with this .

Some are made for internal and external use.All the common herbal medicines are used, there are not many precious medicinal materials, but the effect is not bad.Simple anti-inflammatory medicines, heat-clearing medicines, interior-warming medicines, as well as medicines for bruises, tranquilizers, emergency medicines, trauma medicines, etc. With these things, even if there are minor illnesses and pains, Su Wan can handle them.

Fortunately, Su Wan's status in the Hou's Mansion has been slightly improved recently, and no request was made, but she was not rejected by any means, so it was successfully made.

After the medicine was almost ready, Su Wan asked Lufu to keep it in different categories. Pills, powders, granules, etc. Some were put away in small porcelain bottles, some were wrapped in paper, and the name of the medicine was written on the outside. As for getting mixed up.

Others only knew that Su Wan was still tinkering with herbal medicine while recovering from her illness, but they didn't think she could make any tricks, and didn't care about what she did.

The time soon came to the 25th. Although Su Wan's body was not completely recovered, she was fine. She only needed to rest for a while, and she could come out to see guests. Therefore, Mrs. Tai asked her to restore her morning and evening sleep. Ding province.

In the morning, after dressing up, Su Wan took Lu Fu to Songheyuan to have a morning feast.

Although Su Wan was ill for a few days, she only lost a little weight, and there was no major change. On the contrary, she became more elegant and elegant because of her thinness.

After Aunt Wang saw it, it was inevitable that she felt sour with jealousy——

Although Hou Ye didn't spend the night in Wangqiu Courtyard for the past few days, he visited her almost every day. He also asked her to open a storeroom a few times and gave Xiao Su a lot of good things. The meaning given by Master Hou is naturally extraordinary.
