Chapter 125: Slapped in the face
Chapter 125: Being slapped in the face
This was also a disguised way for the emperor to admit his mistake to the scholar-bureaucrats for his willfulness, so he got the green light to approve it. Otherwise, he would never have even thought about it.
Su You suddenly felt that this old man was so tall, and he quickly saluted him again: "Shibo, this experience is truly extraordinary."
The old man sighed again: "Compared with such a special encounter, with my true heart, I would rather fight in the examination hall again. It's just that the Holy Lord has given me such a favor and I can't live up to it."
After speaking, he patted Su You on the shoulder: "This is a lesson, young man, please remember it..."
Su You was dumbfounded. I am so envious that my mouth is watering. Do you mean you are still not satisfied? Do scholar-bureaucrats want to be so pretentious?!
But I saw a few old men nodding and sighing, and they were convinced. This shows how much the world today respects those who are genuine Jinshi.
Then Cheng Wenying introduced another person to Su You, who came from Qingshen County and had a surname of Du.
This Su You is not blind after all. Qingshen Jiang Qing, Chen, Du, Yang, Cheng, no wonder Cheng Wenying is familiar with them, and bows to him: "I was born late in school, and I have met the descendants of the poets."
Du Fu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, fled to the south of Jiannan to avoid war and lived in the west of Chengdu. When he went to Jiangling, he left his two sons to stay in Chengdu. During the Yang Zilin Rebellion, his descendants fled to Mei to avoid trouble. After his death, he was buried in Qingshen. This branch of his descendants
So he became a Qingshen man.
The Du family later produced Du Minqiu and Du Xinlao; the Chen family later produced Chen Xiliang and Chen Zhen; the Yang family produced Yang Taizhi, Yang Dong, Yang Ruming, and Yang Daquan. They were all great figures among the Qingshen Jiangqing.
This is Du Minqiu's father, a hermit master whose name is unknown in history. At this time, he laughed and said: "Big and small Su are now studying Qingshen and often come to visit me. His literary talents are beyond words. Mingrun Poetry and Prose
Not bad, it really comes from family education.”
After saying that, he shook his head and said, "My boy is able to write poems at the age of seven. I have already given him enough comfort, but you are one year younger than him. It's rare, it's really rare."
Zhao Xu said: "Compared with the self-narrative poems, the articles telling the ancestors are actually more praiseworthy. They don't have the straight-up and false pretense of adults, but instead make people's eyes shine. You must remember that if you are bright, articles can convey the truth.
What you say is the voice of your heart, but don’t let it become cliche as you grow older.”
Su You quickly bowed: "Young man, you must remember the teachings of your seniors."
After being given a good education again, Su You had time to get away.
The county magistrate and the tax collector were sitting on a small table on one side, with a large pile of documents in front of them. They couldn't hide their joy at all.
But Su You doesn't have time to know the specific figures now. The two girls at the other window, one big and one young, can almost wear bottles of oil on their lips.
Shi Wei saw Su You coming over: "Brother Xiaoyou, it's so boring here."
Su You nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, things are almost done now, let's go to the silkworm market!"
The three of them came out of Shuyuan Building, and Xue Zhong quickly followed them.
Su You was surprised and said: "Brother Xue, do you have anything else?"
Xue Zhong said: "The silkworm market is crowded, I will follow the young master and the ladies."
Su You looked at a few black boys wearing Hanfu not far away from him. This was his bad taste. He told Atunmi about the concept of plainclothes bodyguards, and Atunmi took them seriously.
But Xue Zhong was also very kind, so he smiled and said: "That's right, then I'll trouble Brother Xue."
The pier has now become a big market, with stalls close together and a lot of products.
There is a flower seller at the city gate. The surrounding farmers cut off their red plum and wintersweet branches and bundle them into small bundles for sale. The business is very good.
There are also daffodils, which are also very popular.
When I saw Narcissus Suyou, I wanted to recite poems, but I thought that most of them were works by Song people and had not been published yet, so I had to endure it.
He would not do such a thing by plagiarizing other people's poems and passing them as his own.
The outer areas of the Silkworm Market are mainly farm tools, seeds, and silkworm seeds. The further you go in, the more expensive the products become.
Su You bought a basket of mixed fruits, including sweet oranges, peeled sugar cane, and peeled water chestnuts. He coaxed the girl's mouth, and then ate and watched along the way.
Not far away, Xue Zhong's hands were already full of things. Atunmi liked the small red items woven and embroidered by the peasant woman very much, such as skirt handkerchiefs, sachets, sleeve collar decorations, etc. She wanted to buy them as soon as she saw them.
There are also some toys to tease children, such as clay tigers, colored paper pinwheels, paper lanterns, and bamboo snakes.
He bought two velvet flowers for the second daughter to wear. Su You bought some glutinous rice cakes and said, "Sister, it's good for us to go shopping. We bought too many and Xue Zhong can't take them..."
Atunmi was very satisfied with the bamboo basket on the bambooware stall: "Look at how thin the bamboo silk is! Buy a basket for this big brother to carry on his back, and the problem will be solved!"
Xue Zhong: "..."
Su You pulled Xue Zhong over and whispered: "This is General Zai Li from the Erlin Department. They are rich in bronze wares..."
Xue Zhong left Su You behind and rushed to Atunmi in two steps and said to the bamboo owner: "Give me another pair of picks!"
There are many strange things in the medicine market. There are many Chinese medicinal materials that Su You doesn't recognize, but Shi Wei knows them all.
After asking about the medicine called Aconite, Su You felt that he could show off again: "This thing needs to be detoxified before it can be used. Do you know?"
The drug dealer slapped him in the face: "What this young man said is absolutely true. In the Jin Dynasty, the ancestors of the Jin Dynasty had a fried carbon method. In the Liu and Song Dynasties, Lei Gong used east flowing water and soaked black beans.
In the Tang Dynasty, "Qian Jin" has the honey-coated and roasted method, and "Treasure Injury" uses the paper-wrapped and simmering method. Up to this day, there are also water soaking, ginger boiling, ginger juice quenching, vinegar soaking, burning ashes to preserve the nature, and Coptis chinensis stir-frying."
Shi Wei said: "There are also boiled adzuki beans, soaked in salt water and then fried, soaked in children's urine and simmered..."
The medicine dealer held up his hands and said happily: "I haven't heard of these three methods yet, but this little lady has heard so much, it's really amazing!"
Well, with the little knowledge I gained from the herbalist in the village, talking about traditional Chinese medicine with people today is just asking for a slap in the face.
However, Shi Wei's knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine was quite rich. During this period, Su You became more and more clear about it. After leaving the drug store, she asked: "Weier, have you studied medicine?"
Shi Wei said: "Brother said that our ancestors led the troops first, and military doctors were very important when leading the troops. We had to guard against epidemics and miasma, and injuries from falls and injuries were commonplace."
"Later, our ancestors wanted to enjoy blessings again. They paid great attention to daily medicinal and dietary maintenance, as well as guidance and conditioning. Therefore, our Shi family has always attached great importance to medical skills."
Su You nodded: "That makes sense. By the way, speaking of healing injuries, Sister Adun, how do you treat Jin Chuang in your tribe?"
Ah Dun said: "Well... I'm afraid Mr. Fan knows this better. What I know is that blood root, cinnabar, copper powder, safflower, and angelica are commonly used. Oh, and frankincense and borneol."
Wow, even you are so powerful, but you still have to show off: "Where you are, or have you seen it in Dali, there is a kind of medicinal material spread, the leaves are like palms, and in August, a ball of vermilion is formed on the stem of the grass.
It’s a small fruit with a lumpy root, maybe it’s called Panax notoginseng?”
Atunmi shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, but if you want to know, I can ask you."
Su You quickly said: "I must ask about it, this is an excellent gold-creating medicine."
At this time Shi Wei stopped again: "Brother Xiaoyou, there are tiger bones and rhinoceros horns here!"
Su You looked at the two bones and a corner on the stall: "How do you know?"
He had seen many Tibetan medicine stalls in later generations, and the ones with many tiger bones were 100% fake.
Shi Wei raised the big bone with both hands: "You smell it!"
I'm damned if I can smell it! Su You quickly waved his hand: "How's the quality? Wei'er, do you want it? If you want it, we'll buy it."
The medicine stall owner only thought they were two strange-looking children, but he didn't expect an important customer to come to the door. He quickly said: "Oh, you two must have a family background and are famous doctors."
Atunmi said on the side: "Why do you want to buy it? Weier, you want your sister to give you a few pairs, there are plenty of them in Dali."
Su You saw that the owner of the medicine stall turned pale in the blink of an eye, and quickly interrupted: "It's not easy for customers to come all the way to Meizhou. How much does it cost for us to buy it?"
The two parties agreed that the deal would be settled by handing over five strings of money.
Continuing to wander around, Xue Zhong carried the burden: "This is the benefit of the silkworm market."
Su You didn't understand: "How to say?"
Xue Zhong smiled and said: "The yamen encourages the market. Today, you only need to pay the stall fee and leave the rest alone. Let's not talk about tiger bones. If you want to buy rhino horns on weekdays, the price will be doubled."
