Xiaoyang was a little embarrassed by the praise, and said quickly: "What I cook is far inferior to that of my mother. What my mother cooks is so delicious."
He said, then lowered his head, his eyes dim: "It's a pity that my mother is in poor health and hasn't gotten up to cook for a long time."
Seeing this, Yan Shiqing patted him on the shoulder: "You are still young, and it is already very good to be able to do this. By the way, Xiaoyang, do you have pen, ink, paper and inkstone at home?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang naturally knew what she was going to do, and hurriedly said: "Sister Yan, wait a minute, I'll borrow it!"
After Xiaoyang ran out, Mrs. Xie Chen looked at Yan Shiqing and said, "Girl, I'm so sorry to trouble you!"
The little girl also walked up to Yan Shiqing. She looked at Xiaoyun and Xiaowa on the left and right, and then at Aunt Huo. Then she pursed her lips and said, "Sister Yan, my name is Xie Xiaoxi, from Xishui."
Xi. I want to apprentice with you and learn medical skills. Can you teach me?"
Yan Shiqing saw that she was young, smart, and very creative, so she was really moved.
But she hasn't settled down yet, so how can she say this. Besides, this little girl is a bit young. It would be better if she could be two or three years older.
Mrs. Xie Chen was speechless when she saw Yan Shi. She seemed to be thinking about something. Her face turned red and she pulled her daughter. She said apologetically: "Girl, I'm so sorry. My child is young and not sensible. You don't want to be on the same level as her."
."
As soon as she finished saying this, she covered her chest and coughed again.
Xie Xiaoxi's eyes turned red, and she patted her mother's back quickly, saying in a nasal voice: "Mom, I won't talk nonsense anymore, don't worry. Sister Yan, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I didn't want to become a disciple."
Seeing her like this, the little boy couldn't bear to pull Yan Shiqing's sleeves and shouted softly: "Girl!"
Although Grandma Huo couldn't bear it, she still whispered to the little boy quite sensibly: "Girls make their own decisions!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Yan Shiqing looked at Xie Chen's humble pleading, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sister, don't be nervous. Xiaoxi is still young, so naturally I won't take what she said to heart.
superior."
When she said this, she saw Xiaoxi's eyes gradually dimming, and then said: "Your Xiaoxi is a smart girl. If I hadn't just arrived here and hadn't settled in yet, I would have taken her in."
When Xiaoxi heard this, her eyes lit up. Just as she was about to speak, her mother pulled her back: "Xiaoxi is young and ignorant, so he doesn't deserve such praise from the girl."
"Sister, don't say that. Both the boys and girls in your family are very nice and filial. As long as you take good care of yourself, you will be able to enjoy happiness in the future."
Mrs. Xie Chen couldn't help but smile on her face when she saw her repeatedly praising her children.
As a mother, you always hope that your children will have hope in the future, and you also hope to hear good things about them from others.
"I hope I can honor the girl's good wishes!"
After Xie Chen finished speaking, she saw Xie Yang running in like a gust of wind holding something in his arms: "Sister Yan, I borrowed something."
As soon as he put down the things, he heard a pleasant male voice coming from the door: "Xie Auntie, I'm here to see you!"
Xiaowa and Xiaoyun heard the sound and turned around at the same time, only to see a fifteen or sixteen-year-old man standing at the door wearing a blue gown and a wooden hairpin on his head.
"Brother Yi!"xdw8
Xiaoxi shouted sweetly when she saw Shen Yi.
Yan Shiqing and Aunt Huo did not look back, one was grinding ink and the other was spreading out the white paper.
"Brother Yi, this sister Xiaoyun has already chopped my firewood."
When Xiaoyun saw the man looking over, he immediately blushed and turned away.
Shen Yi's eyes lit up when he saw that Xiaoyun was different from the yellow and white color of the girls in their capital. Then he raised a smile on his lips and bowed to Xiaoyun: "Thank you, Miss, for your help!"
Xiaoyun lowered his head and murmured: "Well, you're welcome!"
Xiaowa looked at the two of them curiously, then smiled and said: "Master, my Xiaoyun is helping Xie Yang's family, why are you the one thanking them? What is your relationship with their family?"
Xie Yang's eyes were fixed on Yan Shiqing. Hearing Xiaowa's words, he was distracted: "Brother Shen Yi is my cousin, and his mother and my mother are cousins."
The little baby suddenly realized, but it didn't matter.
Xie Chen on the side said: "Yi'er, the autumn exam will be held in less than half a year. How come you have time to come here today?"
"I was reading at home and just wanted to take a rest when I saw Xiaoyang hurriedly came to borrow pen and ink from me. I was very curious and guessed that your firewood was about to run out, so I followed him."
"Auntie, you don't need to worry. You need to take care of yourself first. The imperial examination is more important. When I get better, I will chop the firewood at home. If it doesn't work, Xiaoyang can also chop the small ones."
After Xie Chen finished speaking, her whole body was shaking with pain, and even her breathing became rapid.
Seeing this, Yan Shiqing winked at the little baby, and saw that without saying a word, she took Mrs. Xie Chen back to the room and lay down while she started to perform acupuncture.
Xie Yang wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Aunt Huo standing outside the door: "Brother, please wait a moment, my girl is doing acupuncture inside."
With tears hanging from the corners of Xiaoxi's eyes, she held Shen Yi's hand tightly and rested next to her.
Half an hour later, Yan Shiqing and Xiaowa walked out of the door.
Facing the Xie Yang brothers and sisters who were hesitant to speak, she did not answer immediately. Instead, she dipped her pen in ink and wrote out the prescription.
Half a tael of aconite (cracked, peeled navel), half a tael of Aconitum (cracked, peeled navel), half a tael of cinnabar (finely ground), half a tael of coriander (fried with glutinous rice to make it yellow, with wings and feet removed) Two, Sichuan peppercorns (eyes and mouth are removed, lightly stir-fry to remove sweat), half two taels of realgar (finely ground), half taels of dried ginger (cracked, filed), half tael of ginseng (reed heads removed), half taels of asarum 2 pieces, half a liang of mango grass (slightly burnt), half a liang of podophyllum (with beard removed), 1 centipede (slightly burnt, with legs removed), 1 lizard (slightly burnt).
"Your mother is fine now. You can get this prescription. I won't bother you if I have anything else to do. I'll leave first."
After she finished speaking, she winked at Xiaowa, asked her to give today's face money to Xie Yang, and then walked out first.
Seeing that their master had left first, Xiaoyun and Mammy Huo hurriedly followed him. Xiaowa took out two hundred coins and put them on the table: "This is today's face money, thank you for your hospitality!"
Xie Yang held the prescription tightly in his hand and said hurriedly: "Wait a minute, I have steamed shrimp dumplings, so I will pack them for you and take them back."
Xiaowa knew that it was not easy for his family, so he shook his head: "No need, you can keep it to eat!"
Shen Yi took the prescription from Xie Yang, and when he saw the ginseng, his face turned pale.
A piece of ginseng costs several taels. How can I afford it at my cousin’s house?
"Girl, please wait!"
Shen Yi grabbed the prescription and hurriedly ran out of the house, catching up with Yan Shiqing and others in front.
"Master, is there something wrong?"
When Shen Yi saw Yan Shiqing, he couldn't help but turn his face sideways and didn't dare to look directly at her: "The ginseng required for the girl's prescription is probably something that Xiaoyang's family won't be able to get out of. I look at the girl's clothes, and her family should be well-off. I don't know if she can." You can't let Yi do the work for you, why don't you advance some money to Yi?"
