Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 45 Story
As the carriage drove away, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Hu were also a little tired, impatient to continue wandering, so they simply found a clean teahouse to sit down and drink tea.

Mrs. Hu didn't know why, she had been lazy for the past two days, and she couldn't keep up her energy. Now that the wind was blowing outside for a while, she was more energetic, so she had to pull Su Tong to let her tell the story.

Speaking of which, Su Tong is also a master who likes to gossip. When he comes, he is full of interest and can tell stories for a whole day without even drinking a sip of tea.

It was still a bit masculine outside just now, but it started to snow again in a blink of an eye. The people in Rugao County are used to it, the snow is blowing, and pedestrians are still coming and going on the street.

The brazier in the teahouse is very hot. Although the wine is not warmed in the cold weather, it is quite interesting to make a pot of steaming tea.

Su Tong simply began to talk about the stories in her memory under the dense water mist. A long time ago, her very busy mother, no matter how busy or tired she was, would sit on her bedside and coax her Stories to tell at bedtime.

The Monkey King in Huaguo Mountain, cut his arms open, cut out his intestines and bones, Nezha who was still with his parents, Chu Liuxiang, the bandit commander who stepped on the moon and left his fragrance, and the sword god and sword fairy in the decisive battle on the top of the Forbidden City.

Su Tong narrates, countless magnificent stories, heroes and lovely characters, attracting everyone's ears to listen. Sure enough, a really good story can transcend time, no matter in which era, no matter who you are facing, Still brilliant.

Although on the way to Rugao County, she has already told stories all the way, but there are too many stories in the 21st century. Even if the story cannot be recounted verbatim, there is absolutely no problem in memorizing it, not to mention many wonderful plots, she has watched it many times.

Even after all this time, she's only said a few good passages, and hasn't even told a story from beginning to end.

Hu's woman was very happy when she heard that, she insisted on drinking, and even wanted to go to the Jiaofang to invite a female prostitute to dance. , the guy happily ran out and came back with a jug of warm wine.

However, it is impossible to find female prostitutes in this cold weather. Besides, there are not many famous beautiful actresses in Rugao County.

"When are you going to Kaifeng? I'll ask Ms. Song Xixi to dance for you in person. Her pipa and dance are top-notch even in Kaifeng."

Su Tong listened to the two women's singing and dancing, and couldn't laugh or cry. Even though he knew in his heart that the current female prostitutes are not the same as the so-called prostitutes. Those female stars in the circle are similar, even officials can't force them to sell themselves, but it still feels weird.

It would be fine if it was a few big men who said these words, but one is the official wife and the other is the official concubine. I don't know if Zhouzhi County will burst into tears when he hears his bride and concubine.

But with such a straightforward woman, Su Tong also felt happy.

After drinking two glasses of wine, Mrs. Hu seemed to be overwhelmed. After a while, she fell asleep in a daze. After falling asleep, she actually muttered something about Chu Liuxiang, Ximen Chuuxue, obviously still immersed in Su Tong. In those marvelous stories she told.

Mrs. Zhang covered her with a blanket and sighed: "This child is not easy."

Su Tong didn't speak. Although Zhang didn't say anything, she had already found out that Hu was the adopted daughter of Zhang and Zhouzhi County. In the Song Dynasty, most of the so-called adopted daughters were concubines, and Hu was the same.

But between people, if they get along for too long, they will have feelings. As Zhang's adopted daughter, Hu has been raised from a hairy girl to be graceful, even if Zhang knows that this is her husband's concubine , instinctively resisted from the heart, but Zhang's temperament is straightforward, the reason why he married Zhou Zhixian was just the words of his parents' order and matchmaker, and the time spent with Zhou Zhixian was not as good as with Hu's time is longer.

Su Tong vaguely guessed that, in fact, judging from Zhang's words and deeds, she might have a bit of a problem with her sexuality, at least she was bisexual, not only liked men, but also women.

Of course, it's just a guess, and Su Tong doesn't have the heart to meddle in other people's affairs.

"She's not young anymore, she'll be 20 soon." Mrs. Zhang frowned, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "A-Tong, you're good at medicine, can you help her find out why she can't get pregnant all the time? A few days ago, another concubine in the backyard was diagnosed with a child, but Yueniang just didn't have any good news. She is fine now, she is young, but if she is old and has no child, what will happen? Lang, Erlang's willingness to support her is no better than his own."

The corners of Su Tong's mouth twitched - the original wife actually asked a doctor to see a doctor for her husband's concubine, just because the concubine was not pregnant!
Is there anything more absurd in the world than this?

However, Su Tong still rubbed his face, smiled wryly and said, "I'm not very good at medicine, so I'd better find a famous doctor to show her."

This is not entirely due to her modesty. Although she also studied medicine since she was a child, she later went to school and mainly studied Western medicine. She is young and has little experience. She cannot be compared with those big players now. That's right, you should be able to invite a good doctor at the level of an imperial physician.

For things like infertility, it is better to find a serious Chinese medicine doctor to take a look and take care of your body.

Mrs. Zhang frowned, thinking about it, she didn't bother, the driver rushed back before the snow outside stopped.

Su Tong asked a few words about the situation of the young man.

But the coachman didn't know, he just sent the man to the gate of the hospital, worried that his wife would wait for a long time, so he drove the car back, the specific situation is not clear.

That being the case, when we met by chance, Su Tong left it behind and didn't think about it anymore. The road was difficult to walk, and Mrs. Hu slept soundly again. Mrs. Zhang simply asked the driver to come in and find a seat, and drink a cup of tea to warm her body , I still chatted with Su Tong as usual, but Mrs. Hu didn't wake up, and the two of them no longer told any amusing stories, but discussed in a low voice the big weir in Rugao County that couldn't be pulled out in everyone's heart.

Mrs. Zhang is well aware of all kinds of discussions in the yamen, and even the debates inside and outside the court, and she can say one, two, three casually. It was only then that Su Tong discovered that Mrs. Zhang is really not a deep boudoir who does not leave the door. A woman, if she is a man, she may be more promising than her husband.

"I heard that the officials sent Hu Lingyi, a transshipment envoy from the Huaihe River, to inspect it. I don't know what the situation will be. I hope the construction of this big weir will not stop, otherwise those civilians will lose their lives in vain."
