The Blessing of Traveling to Pregnancy

Chapter 18

After Liangfeng asked Xiaoer about the location of the drug store, he opened an umbrella and went out.The large post stations of the government are usually very lively, and there are also many small merchants and hawkers. Over time, a small but very lively town has been formed here.The post station in the pharmacy is not far away, and it takes only a moment to arrive.Unexpectedly, there were many people standing in the pharmacy at this time. The heavy rain in the past few days made many people have some colds, and those who did not have a cold would come to buy some medicines as a precaution.After all, it's the time to go to Beijing to rush for the exam. If you get sick halfway, it will be a terrible thing.

The blue-clothed boy just now looked like he was dressed as a scholar, so he must also be a candidate for the exam in Beijing.Liangfeng thought to himself, I really hope to see him a few more times after returning to the capital, this fairy-like figure is very pleasing to the eye even from a distance.

Liangfeng was thinking about it, but when he closed his umbrella, he bumped a person into his arms.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Liang Feng suddenly came back to his senses, lowered his head in a panic, but heard a soft voice from above his head, "It's nothing, you better be careful when you walk."

"It's you..." Liang Feng slowly raised his head, and actually saw him again.

Liu Chengxu was a little inexplicable, he didn't seem to have seen the girl in front of him.Seeing this, Liangfeng's face was slightly hot - she was so presumptuous!Embarrassed for a moment, he said quickly, "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person." After finishing speaking, he hurried into the store and stood obediently behind the others.

She only felt a tall figure standing behind her, and Liang Feng suddenly stiffened her back nervously.He also came to buy medicine?Is it possible that you are sick?Liangfeng was thinking wildly, only to hear Liu Chengxu say, "Girl, it's your turn, don't you go to buy medicine?"

"Ah! Yes, yes... Hehe, it's my time, thank you!" What is she doing, she has made so many ugly things in a row, if she is seen by Mother Wang, she will definitely reprimand her for being a maid in the big family. No reserve at all.

"Girl, what do you want to buy?"

The pharmacy clerk asked, and finally let the cool breeze calm down a little.

Liangfeng handed him the prescription, and the clerk took it and took the medicine according to the prescription.He just sighed curiously when he handed the medicine to Liang Feng, "Girl, I really don't see this prescription of yours."

"Really." Cool breeze smiled.But he said in his heart, that's natural, this is Doctor Wen's prescription, how can you people have the ability to write it!Before leaving, he paused for a while, only to hear Liu Chengxu grab some medicines for colds and acclimatization from the pharmacy clerk.Hope that the young master's illness will recover soon, Liang Feng secretly prayed.

After Liangfeng returned to the inn, Qingmei asked her to boil the medicine and let everyone drink a bowl. In addition, the matter of eating and washing dishes in the past few days should not be handed over to the guys in the inn. The two maids do a good job in division of labor.

The maid Xingfang was not happy at first, "Although we are here to serve the young lady, we are still first-class and second-class maids in the mansion. Why do we have to do such rough work? Are there any rules for this?"

The other maid, Xinglan, was also a little dissatisfied, and she speculated in a low voice, "Could it be that miss did it on purpose, and gave us a blow before returning home? But these days, we have done nothing wrong by being honest."

These two maids are the first-class maids in Lin's mansion, and they both stay with the mistress Xu. If they go out on weekdays with a posture that is several times stronger than that of ordinary ladies, how can they do such rough work!

"If you want you to boil water and cook, go, where are there so many complaints! Could it be that your skin is itchy again?!" Mama Wang gave an order, and the four servant girls stopped talking, and reluctantly went downstairs to the kitchen in the backyard.

At this time, Dongqiao had been waiting in the backyard for a long time, and Madam Wang followed, and gave some silver taels to the young man in charge of the backyard. ?”

The steward, Xiaoer, got the money, so naturally he didn't stop it. In fact, there were many cases in the big family who went out and started cooking alone. Xiaoer asked the cook to give them a pot and a piece of land to facilitate their departure.

Dongqiao was actually very afraid of Mama Wang, so he told Mama Wang exactly what Qingmei had told her.Mama Wang frowned, although she didn't object, her face was very ugly.The maidservants behind her also had cold faces, thinking, before they even returned to the house, they started to put on airs as young ladies, hum!
"The two of you are going to fetch water. You two should wash the dishes and vegetables after boiling the water. Be quicker with your hands and feet."

Mother Wang kept a cold face and quickly finished the order.Dongqiao stood aside cautiously. She was the chef, and she didn't have to do anything until the dishes were washed.

Upstairs, Zhang’s mother also felt that Qingmei’s move was inappropriate. After thinking about it, she decided to kindly remind Qingmei’s current situation, “Miss, Xingfang and the others are all sent by Madam to serve you. I have stayed by my side for a long time, and the experience in the mansion is enough to be a good person, so if you want to have such a person to serve you, Madam can't be at ease." When she said that, she specially bit down the word 'madam', hoping that Qingmei could hear it implication.

Unexpectedly, Qingmei just replied "hmm" perfunctorily, and then sat by the window with her chin resting in a daze, watching the heavy rain outside, tapping her fingers on the table, as if humming a little tune in her heart.

Although Liangfeng on the side had never entered the mansion, he vaguely felt that the people brought by Mama Wang and Mama Zhang were different from them. Although they were also maids, they seemed to have a higher status.During the few days in Biezhuang, although the lady didn't pay attention to them, she and Dongqiao were specially instructed by Cui Steward to respect those people and serve them like half masters.

After all, Liangfeng is a maid who has been with Qingmei for two years, and she knows how to speak so that Qingmei can respond mercifully. She thought for a while and then said, "Miss, it's all right now, can you tell the maid about the prescription just now?" What disease is it for, why do you want everyone to drink a bowl?"

Sure enough, Qingmei withdrew her wandering eyes and said, "That's the medicine to prevent diarrhea."

"Diarrhea?" Zhang's mother also came curiously, "But we didn't have the slightest acclimatization all the way."

"There has been heavy rain in the past few days. Due to the rain, the soil has seeped into the well water. Even if the water is completely boiled, there will still be some mud residue in it. Drinking this kind of water, eating this kind of water made Food will inevitably cause diarrhea. The heavy rain in late summer can easily cause colds, and many people attribute these to acclimatization, which is actually wrong. If it is treated according to acclimatization, it will be a retreat from the south."

"So that's how it is!" Liangfeng suddenly realized, "No wonder the miss asked Dongqiao to cook. I went to the kitchen just now and found that the waiters and waiters had directly fetched well water to wash dishes and vegetables. Even if the hot water is like this, If you eat food washed in cold water, then I'm afraid..." Thinking of this, Liang Feng's facial features couldn't help but frowned.

Zhang's mother was slightly shocked by Qingmei, she didn't expect Qingmei to be so thoughtful!She came from the palace, and when she passed by the imperial dining room once in a while, she found that regardless of whether it was raining or not, the imperial dining room always used boiled water for washing dishes and pans.Because I was too used to it and didn't pay attention to the reason, I didn't expect to be reminded by a 13-year-old girl now.

In the backyard, Mother Wang was instructing the maids to fetch water and wash the dishes according to Qingmei's instructions. Just in case, Qingmei specially asked Liangfeng to buy some alum stones when she was catching the prescription to prevent diarrhea.In fact, if she could, she really wanted to buy activated carbon, but unless she made it herself in this day and age, she might have to wait hundreds of years before buying activated carbon.

The maids put the alum stones into the fresh water, soaked them in the alum stones for a long time, and then boiled the filtered water again.After two times of processing, such water can be used with confidence.

"Ah!" Liangfeng immediately thought of the young man in blue in the pharmacy, he was grabbing the medicine according to the acclimatization of the soil and water!Even if the water and soil are really unacceptable, it is good to remind him to pay attention to the water problem!What if you have a stomachache from drinking water? !

Seeing her suddenly making a sound, Qingmei couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Liangfeng was about to speak, but when he thought that Zhang's mother was still here, the words reached his throat and swallowed them back.She was not overwhelmed by Liu Chengxu's beauty, and knew that she was a female family member, and she was also a female family member in the family, so she couldn't casually chat or chat with a strange man.For a moment, I was anxious and helpless, and I couldn't show it on my face. Liangfeng only felt that he had never been so difficult in his entire life.

Dongqiao does not participate in the huge project of boiling water and washing dishes. Qingmei specifically explained to her that when looking for fresh ingredients, she must smell them carefully, and there must be no smell or sourness, even if everyone eats porridge and steamed buns tonight , but you must not eat foods that are mutated by pantothenic acid.

Regarding food, Dongqiao fully agrees with Ome.The first thing to eat is not bad for the stomach, and the second is the question of whether it is good or not.Although she was puzzled by the fact that the young lady wanted to boil water and which strange stone to throw, anyone who has been with Qingmei for a long time knows that she always gives people a very reassuring feeling.That kind of feeling is very strange, it will make you feel that even if you follow her to a deserted place where there is no grass and no human habitation, you will firmly believe that she will bring you out safely.

Dongqiao was looking for ingredients in the kitchen.The cooks have all been greeted by the waiter in charge, and they will not trouble her.Since Liu was ill, this dinner had to be supplemented properly, after all, there was still some distance from Beijing.And the waiters in the official inn are all good people, if you don't give them some benefits, they will inevitably cut corners for you, so Liu Chengxu had no choice but to come to the backyard to order the dishes for the evening.

Walking to the backyard, I saw a group of well-dressed girls boiling water, washing dishes, and picking vegetables.Even though Liu Chengxu was well-informed and knowledgeable, he couldn't help but feel a little curious - when did he take care of so many bright and beautiful girls in this station?
