Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 275
Su Tong followed the people sent by his father and returned home. He didn't feel it when he was outside, but when he returned home, he was exhausted physically and mentally.

Ah Zhen dragged her to take a bath, and she didn't even move a finger. It was the first time that Ah Zhen took the maid to wash her. Su Tong didn't like others to come in and serve her while she was taking a bath. For the first time there was no protest.

After washing, she got into the soft bed, rolled into a cotton ball, and fell asleep drowsily.

In her drowsiness, she saw a big river, which was wide and long. Lin Mu was standing on the other side of the river, holding a Samoyed in his arms, grooming it bit by bit.

He also said: "Su Tong, your hair is so beautiful, and your fur is also good, why don't you take it off and make me a dog skin mattress?"

Then, Su Tong woke up all of a sudden.

What a dream!

Su Tong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, got up and obediently swallowed a bowl of hot porridge, with shredded pork, vegetables, and preserved eggs in it. It was cooked however it was lively and popular.

This porridge with preserved egg and lean meat is actually much more comfortable and delicious than those messy and expensive porridges. After all, Su Tong is just an ordinary person, and even his picky mouth is most suitable ordinary food.

Occasionally, in order to deceive people, she can pretend to be a petty bourgeoisie, but when she feels depressed, she reveals her true colors.

The cooks at home have figured out her taste, and whenever troubles arise, the food at home is simple, which annoys Erlang, who loves meat and dislikes.

In the next few days, Chen Zijie helped a lot, and Su Tong also saw her cousin's supernatural powers for the first time, and the imperial court was not as fast as him in collecting medicinal materials.

It took less than half a day to complete the ship, and the medicinal materials were transported to the pier in the capital. On that day, the boats in the Bian River, no matter how big or small, were all for Chen Zijie to transport the medicinal materials. There were no other passenger ships or merchant ships. It has the tendency of rivers to stop flowing, which is very spectacular.

When Su Tong went to Zhao Wanrong's place to chat, he unconsciously mentioned that wealth is incomparable to a country, and it is not a blessing for merchants. Money is enough for what you need, and you don't need to earn too much, let alone revealing it.

From the very beginning, Chen Zijie paid great attention to this aspect. Every time he does business, he does not rely on his own food. He also knows how to hide his property, and will take the initiative to let it go.

But he is really good at doing business, and there are too many people who rely on him, so he is afraid that the people under him will be obedient to others and cause trouble for him.

After all, no matter how high his status and background were, Chen Zijie was not an emperor.

Zhao Wanrong was a sensible person, and she knew it well, she only said: "That kid has a gap in his heart, he is not a fool, he can't step on the bottom line of the official family."

Touching Su Tong's delicate cheeks, Zhao Wanrong was satisfied: "He has already said that when you get married in the future, he wants you to have a lot of red makeup and a beautiful scenery. Before that, of course he has to be well.

Su Tong smiled.

A large amount of medicinal materials were transported back, boiled into soup, and distributed to all the patients to drink. The medicinal effect was not bad, and the strong ones took effect on the spot, and the weaker ones were almost as good the next day.

Su Tong was also worried that other patients were poisoned, but they did not know it and delayed their illness. Unexpectedly, the officials were more worried than her, and insisted that everyone in the capital drink medicine. The medicinal soup was boiled and distributed in the streets. The antidote was also ground into powder and sprinkled in wells and mountain springs. Everyone must drink it, lest there be any omissions.

That official is indeed Ming Renjun, or a benevolent gentleman, no wonder the government and the public have praised him a lot.

After the turmoil passed, the capital returned to its former tranquility. Even though the Queen Mother was in poor health and had been bedridden for a long time, she still refused to completely let go of the government.

Every five days, he has to face the court and listen to the government behind the curtain, and no minister dares to persuade him.

Su Tong privately felt that the queen mother was old after all, and the ministers could just wait, there was really no need to conflict with her on irrelevant matters.

Anyway, it is not the Tang Dynasty now, and it is absolutely impossible for the empress to be in power.

The family quieted down, and Su Tong devoted himself to preparing for Xiao Yao's marriage. These days, he was so frightened that no one cared about Xiao Yao's marriage.

However, after all, in October, on a sunny day, she got married smoothly. From then on, she was the Song family. She was a married woman for the first time, and her happiness lasted forever.

As soon as Xiaoyao's wedding was over, Axia and the others tensed up again, entered the vigorous business field, and regarded making money as the top priority in life.

Now with the help of a capable person like Chen Zijie, Mingyuefang's business is getting more and more popular, making money every day, which is quite polite. Some old businessmen joked that Mingyuefang is not making money, but stealing money.

Su Tong no longer knew how much money he had. If he wanted to figure it out, he had to arrange for the accountant to do the calculation for two days and two nights.

Su Wencheng didn't care about these, his business was important, and he was still looking for the whereabouts of the bought medicinal materials.

But when the other party bought the medicine, no one cared about it. After such a long time, it was a bit difficult to check. However, the batch of medicine was huge, and it was not completely without clues.

Fu Ye and Shen Xiaojiu both helped, and it is said that they have found clues, but Fu Ye kept this secret and never told Su Tong.

It seems that even Su Wencheng himself is not very clear about it.

However, the Su family all felt that Mr. Fu Ye and Fu Lang suddenly became more attentive. If his previous thoughts were only exposed on the surface and let people guess, now as long as he has nothing to do, he would give Su Tong some small gifts. Flowers and plants, as well as exquisite jewelry, even sent two little lambs one day, because Su Tong said that she had almost forgotten what a sheep looked like.

The lamb was tied up and tied under her window, and when she was shown it, Su Tong was embarrassed, and finally remembered that she had indeed said that, but at that time she was eating mutton, and her mouth was full of oil, remembering that when she was in her hometown , It seems that there is a wild goat that fell into the trap she made and let her have a good meal, so I mentioned it.

"Baa, baa..."

The poor little lamb screamed miserably. Su Tong thought about it, but he still felt soft-hearted, so he didn't do it himself, and sent it to the kitchen to be slaughtered by the cook for everyone to beat their teeth as a sacrifice.

However, the sheep were sent over, and no mutton was eaten at night. It seems that Aunt Ma raised it, but I don't know whether it was because Aunt Ma was "pitying the fragrance and cherishing jade", or because the sheep were not fat enough and there was no meat to eat.

It doesn't matter if you eat it or not, it's going to be winter, and it's the best time to eat mutton in winter.

On this day, Fu Ye gave another box of idle books to curry favor with the lady. Su Tong took it and was sitting in the study reading it when a visitor came to the house.

It was Wang Zeng, the envoy of Zhangde Jiedu.

He was about to learn about Qingzhou, so he came to Su Wencheng to take a look, which was also the meaning of the question.

Su Tong didn't pay much attention, and Wang Zeng came to listen to his father and talk about the situation in Qingzhou, but he didn't expect that he would stay until evening, and at dinner, Su Wencheng sent someone to notify Su Tong also went to accompany.
