The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 138

Coincidentally, Aunt Yue came to her and asked where the study room was, so Shi Chuying changed into comfortable clothes and went to see it together.

The west side of the main house and the two wing rooms are optional. One of the west wing rooms has been set up as a place for maintaining flowers and plants, and the rest are left empty.

The woman in charge of these vacant houses babbled behind and said that the East Wing is not as useful as the West Wing here in the capital, and that it is extremely cold in winter when the northwest wind blows, and there is not much sun in the first half of the day, and the sun only shines after noon. In the past; summer is also particularly hot and so on.

Shi Chuying originally wanted to leave it for the children, so it seems that the children are even more unsuitable. Now she reserves the west side of the main house for the children in the future, and leaves a small flower hall in the west wing for the family members who are familiar with it. For guests, one room is used as a warm pavilion for people to rest temporarily; the east wing is reserved for herself.

Shi Chuying turned around in the east wing, pointed to the inside and said, "Seal the door in the middle, and reopen the door in the north room.

Entering from the north, the two rooms are connected, and a floor-to-ceiling cover is made in the middle to separate the outside room with bookshelves. Outside, there are round tables, embroidered pier, incense tables, and a few flowers and plants. Inside, there are desks, armchairs, pens and ink. paper inkstone and the like;
As for the floor-to-ceiling cover, spread woven carpets on the floor, place a beauty couch, a set of tables and chairs, and a few cabinets by the window for temporary rest.

The south room has a hidden door, and the windows have to be changed. By the way, I also need to buy some medicinal materials. I will make a list for you, and all the expenses will be paid from me. "

When Aunt Yue heard that Madam planned to use this room for medicinal materials, she couldn't help worrying: "Since it's a pharmacy, do you want to find some people who understand the mechanism?"

"No need," Shi Chuying smiled slightly, she just needs to enter the enchantment, what mechanism can compare to the enchantment?However, he still reassured: "Let's be more on guard. If you really find someone to do something with you, it will draw people's attention."

"That's true." Aunt Yue nodded.

However, this idea was quickly rejected by Chu Xu, and Chu Xu glared, "It's only natural to marry a wife to support the family, how can I let my wife pay for this money?" He scolded the man immediately, and called a steward from the outer court to take him to the wing to serve the servants, and changed the wing according to his wife's request.

Hearing the reply, Shi Chuying raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything. She only explained to the manager how to change the East Wing Room and matching furniture and other items, and now made a list of things to buy for him. If you can't buy them, She can draw a picture and let people make it according to the pattern.

The manager is capable, he just glanced at the list and replied: "Madam, don't worry, most of these items can be bought, I really don't want to trouble Madam to draw a picture."

Then he said: "It's not a big move to renovate the wing room. One day is enough. When that day comes, please ask Aunt Yue to take care of the backyard, so that the craftsmen from outside will not bump into the female relatives."

Aunt Yue saw that the steward was about forty years old, with a strong body and steady eyes, and he claimed to be a subordinate. She thought that he was someone who could be used by the general. She didn't see such a person in the roster of the mansion, but she also knew the front yard. In fact, there are several guest ministers living here, and this person must be one of them.

Seeing Aunt Yue sizing him up, the man was polite, cupped his hands and said: "Under Yueyang, he is the general's newly appointed steward of the outer court."

Aunt Yue also returned the gift right away, she could somewhat see that this Manager Yue was not as simple as an ordinary person, but she didn't talk too much, and the two agreed that the day when Shi Chuying returned home, someone would come in to catch up with work.

The maids and servants here were busy arranging the items to be used in the two wing rooms, while Shi Chuying went to the medicinal herb storehouse, she wanted to find some suitable herbs, so that she could heal Chu Xu's wounds in two days the day after tomorrow.

She took Polygonatum Polygonatum, Jade Pendant, and Yucong to the back library, and asked Yuhe to bring three bottles of Jinchuang medicine, three bottles of hemostatic medicine, three bottles of Bailing Dan, a small jar of Xumai ointment, and a pill of "Wan Du Dissipation" from the library. ', as well as some fresh Yunsong needles and old Yunsong bark.

Among them, 'Xumai Ointment' and 'Wandu Dissipation' have never been sold in the market. After all, there are not many people who need them in the small place of Jianzhou, and she doesn't want to earn much money from them, so she only brings them in her dowry. a little.Using it on Chu Xu this time is also a trial medicine. After all, she has not tried it on a real person. She only tried it when she met a large animal with injuries. Anyway, the effect on those beasts is very good.

In addition, I brought two small jars of 'truffle wine' for the two of them to drink together in the evening.

'Truffle wine' can be said to be one of the few wines that can be eaten outside Moyun Mountain, because only a small amount of Yungu base wine is used as a base, and the rest are from Wangyun Mountain.

The reason why it is named 'truffle wine' is because the wine is added with pine needles, tender green pine nuts and tender red pine nuts from the depths of Wangyun Mountain, as well as a small amount of honeydew of camellia and The petals are soaked.Not only the color is attractive, the smell is fresh, but also the rosin is clear and the taste is sweet.

It can be said that drinking this wine often cures all diseases, calms the five internal organs, grows and moisturizes hair, and makes people resistant to cold and heat, wind and rain. Invaded by disease.It is simply the best for Chu Xu, a mortal body.

If it weren't for finding pine needles for Chu Xu as a wound medicine, Shi Chuying would not be able to remember this wine for a while. After all, she brewed too many wines with various functions, and even she herself would be overwhelmed as soon as the freshness was over. Curry has gone, and it may not be necessary to use it when he thinks about it.Truffles are one of them.

Thinking of drinking some wine at night, Shi Chuying was quite happy, so she sent Yuzhu to the outer courtyard to send a message, asking if Chu Xu had any plans for the evening, if not, she could get the kitchen ready.

Chu Xu was talking to some guests in the flower hall of the outer study at this time, and he was very happy when he heard that Yuzhu said that his daughter-in-law brought wine out of the dowry storehouse. Looking up at the sky, I felt that today passed slowly, and there was still more than an hour before dinner.

In Dachu, it is common for Gaomen Xianjue to raise a few diners and guest officials. After all, many people are noble but they are not born with everything. For example, they can’t do it themselves. There must be a suitable person to take care of it, so it is not unusual for Gaomen to have a doorman.
