The Second Madam, the Fourth Madam and the Fifth Madam all also lowered their heads. This was not the first time they had met Dr. Zhou. Every time they met, he was sweet, soft and kind. Who knew he had such a big temper and courage?
It was so big that all the masters of the Duke's Mansion were put on hold for one and a half hours over one thing, otherwise it wouldn't have caused such a big fuss.
As soon as the car stopped, Manbao jumped out of the car and rushed into the house, shouting: "Dad, Mom, I'm back——"
Liu Sanniang chased after her, "Master, I forgot to tell you that my grandfather and grandmother are not at home. They went to Pucun."
Man Bao was very disappointed when he heard this and asked, "It's not time to transplant the rice seedlings yet. Why are you going to Pucun now?"
"Grandma went to choose a good piece of land to grow vegetables," Liu Sanniang said sheepishly: "Lizhong and Uncle Wu took over the palace business, so grandpa and grandma wanted to carve out a piece of land for planting.
land."
Man Bao thinks this is a good idea.
Lao Zhoutou and Qian were not at home, not even Xiao Qian, and several sisters-in-law were busy outside, making money and going to school. So Man Bao walked around and took Liu Sanniang to find Mrs. Liu to ask for something.
Eat food.
Mrs. Liu just heard the servant's report and stood waiting for her at the door. When she came, she waved and smiled, "I guess you are coming over, but have you eaten yet? Bai Shan and the others went to the Ministry of Etiquette to get their identity cards for the exam.
Went, the official examination is scheduled for the 20th next month..."
Man Bao was startled, "It's set so late, so there are still thirty-eight days left."
He added: "I haven't eaten yet, so I came here to beg for food."
"That's really naughty. What do we, the family, have to say about begging for food?" Mrs. Liu looked at the time and felt distressed. They had always had lunch. They hadn't eaten yet, so they must be hungry, so she asked the kitchen to prepare it for them.
Man Bao said: "Let's eat noodles. It's too troublesome to cook now."
"The fire in the kitchen hasn't gone out yet. They'll be ready in a moment. How can we make do with lunch?"
So Manbao had a sumptuous lunch and felt very happy, "It's better to be at home."
Mrs. Liu smiled, but Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Duke Zhao's mansion didn't even leave lunch?"
Man Bao waved his hand and said, "I don't want to eat at his house, so I just want to go home and eat. I can also see Grandma Liu and Aunt Zheng."
Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law liked her sweetness and were very happy. They touched her head and said: "If you like it, ask Sanniang to tell us in advance next time you come out. The house will prepare food for you, and you can eat it soon."
superior."
Man Bao happily agreed, thought for a while and said: "The medicine will be changed about every ten days, and I will definitely be able to come out again in ten days."
As for going to Tang Mansion to see a doctor, I can only use my lunch break. It's too tight and I can't go home at all.
Mrs. Liu couldn't help but ask, "How is the acne vaccine...?"
Man Bao said: "It depends on this test. The results will probably be available in three to five days."
I will be vaccinated tomorrow. It usually takes two to five days for the pimples to appear one after another. By then, I will have a rough estimate of the situation.
Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "That's good."
When the time came, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zheng took Manbao to the front yard. She couldn't help but pulled her hand and said with a smile: "Manbao, there are many hard things in this world, you have done your part.
Just don’t worry too much about other people’s eyes and opinions.”
Man Bao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I know Grandma Liu, don't worry, I have not been wronged."
Even if I was angry, after washing my hair and taking a bath so comfortably, my anger would disappear.
It is not certain who was humiliated in this matter.
Man Bao went back to Duke Zhao's Mansion with a smile on her face. She was still wearing the same clothes and shoes as she had in the morning, and even the beads on her hair had not changed.
She wandered to the backyard with the steward, and stood at the intersection where she entered from the second gate and asked her, "Oh, I'm still wearing the clothes I came out of the Imperial Manor this morning. Do you want to change again?"
How could the steward dare? She lowered her head and said, "Mr. Zhou has embarrassed me. I made my own decision this morning. Please forgive me, Dr. Zhou. I kowtow to you."
Man Bao waited for her to kneel down and then said: "You don't have to kneel to me. There is no need to change and wash, so let's go. The Duke's wife is still waiting for us."
The stewardess breathed a sigh of relief, responded quickly, and led Zhou Man to the main courtyard.
The Zhao family had prepared the medicinal materials. After checking the medicine, Man Bao stuffed the medicine into the medicine bag, and then taught them how to cook the medicine and steam the medicine into the medicine bag.
Then she asked the servants of the Zhao family to watch the fire, and she took Liu Sanniang to give Mrs. Zhao Guogong an acupuncture.
After removing the needle, the medicine bag was taken out, the water was squeezed out, and the hot medicine was used for hot compresses. There were also moxibustion stones soaked in the medicine jar.
Man Bao used a clip to hold a moxibustion stone and wrapped it in a cloth. He first taught Liu Sanniang the moxibustion points.
While she was moxibusting Wan, Liu Sanniang also took out a medicine stone and moxibustion again in the direction Zhou Man had moxibustioned.
When Mrs. Zhao Guogong was touched on her lower back, she relaxed comfortably. The pain in her waist that had just been hot compressed was relieved by half. Coupled with the moxibustion stone, she felt a heat rising in her waist, which made her feel comfortable.
I couldn't help but groan, and then I fell asleep hugging the pillow.
She originally thought that she would mention what happened this morning after the acupuncture was over, apologize to Zhou Man, and make up for the children. Who knew that she fell asleep as soon as she squinted her eyes, and when she opened her eyes, it was already night.
Zhou Man went back to Huangzhuang early.
The pain in the Duke's waist was no longer obvious at this time, and she could get out of bed and walk without help. She stretched out her hand and pressed her lower back, and couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder all the women in the capital want to invite her.
It’s true that the medicine has reduced my illness. Not only my back, but my whole body feels comfortable.”
The old grandma smiled and said, "How about calling me the little miracle doctor?"
The Duke's wife sighed and asked quickly: "Who sent Dr. Zhou away this afternoon?"
"It's Mr. Liulang. Tete came back from outside to deliver it, and he made a big apology. Because he came here on orders, we gave the money to Dr. Zhou, but he didn't confiscate it, so Mr. Liulang said that he would go back and bring all the money from the house."
If we copy a few medical books, regardless of whether they have them or not, we will send them a copy anyway, which means we are apologizing."
The Duke's wife said: "The sixth child has grown up."
"No, that's what my slave said. In the past, Mr. Liulang only thought about horse racing and drinking. How could he get these things? But this year, he has made a lot of achievements. I heard that he also made a lot of money."
"Huh, what kind of money can he make? Did he use his wife's dowry to make up for it? It's a useless thing. I've never seen any man use his wife's dowry."
"Then the sixth lady is willing to give flowers to Mr. Liu Lang. I want the slave to tell me that the young couple have a good relationship and it is normal for them to spend time with each other. If the third lady hadn't been cross-eyed and specifically complained about it, no outsiders would know about it.
.”
The Duke's wife became angry when he mentioned her, not only the third lady, but also the Crown Prince's wife. She couldn't help but mutter: "It's all the root of a prodigal family. My daughter-in-law didn't marry well back then. It's also my fault. I shouldn't have been so anxious back then."
