Chapter 1079 386 Freshmen (Twelve)
In the Zhennan Palace in Luoyue City, after Nangongyue cleaned up with great enthusiasm for a few days, the Bixiaotang finally took on a new look. The things in Xiao Yi's private library were still a little outdated. Nangong Yue thought about it for a while, and then asked people to inquire about the shops in Nanjiang, and planned to buy some.
No matter what, I still had a little time to relax. Thinking of the unfinished copy of "Nanjiang Hundred Herbs", Nangong Yue happily took Xiao Fei and went to Zhuli Zhai.
With the ceremonial gate of Bixiaotang, it is very convenient for her to come and go.
After a few hours a day, in just four or five days, I have already written it down.
Nangong Yue asked the boss to bind the copy of "Nanjiang Baicao", and went to the house where his grandfather Lin Jingchen temporarily lived with Xiao Fei.
Lin Jingchen had just entered Luoyue City three days ago, and Nangong Yue deliberately chose to go today just to bring this gift.
Although Xiao Yi's yard only has two entrances, it avoids the busy city and has a very quiet location. Nangong Yue knew at a glance that his grandfather would definitely like it.
When Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei came to Lin Jingchen's temporary residence, they saw a person drying medicine in the yard at a glance. The place where Lin Jingchen lived always had a strong smell of medicine.
Both Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei were stunned, and they both blurted out at the same time: "Sister Xia?"
Han Qixia, who was leaning over to take the medicine with her back to them, turned around when she heard the words, and saw that she was wearing a simple blue dress, with long blue silk braided into a simple braid, and her forehead was already dripping with perspiration. The jade-like skin was almost tanned.
Although it is only mid-April, the weather in southern Xinjiang is even hotter than in June in the capital. The strong and dazzling sunlight dazzles in the courtyard and on Han Qixia's skin, causing her skin to burn brightly. Turn out a rosy healthy glow.
"Sister Yue! Sister Fei!" Han Qixia hurriedly greeted her with a surprised smile on her face.
Looking at the current Han Qixia, Nangongyue can't tell the taste, the eldest girl of the Qi palace, who used to be called golden branches and jade leaves, but now she is not as well dressed as a maid... If the late emperor was still alive, he would see his granddaughter fall. In such a situation, what would you think?
But--
Han Qixia obviously didn't care, with a bright smile on her face and bright eyes. This was something Nangong Yue had never seen on her face before, as if she had loosened the shackles that once bound her body and turned into another person.
Han Qixia obviously saw the complexity in Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei's eyes, touched her face, and joked indifferently: "Sister Yue, Sister Fei, you don't know me, do you? Yes, these days I They all went up the mountain with my grandfather to collect herbs and sunbathe them, and they all tanned and lost a lot of weight..."
When she first arrived in Southern Border, Han Qixia was not used to it. During the journey, she was tired at first and slept very deeply every night, but later, she couldn't sleep for several nights. Later, Lin Jingchen seemed to see When he came out, he did not give her any soothing tea, nor did he take her directly into Luoyue City. Instead, he led her up the mountain to pick herbs for a while, and then went to the small market Xiao Yi mentioned.
That day, she was sweating all over, and when she came back, she slept well, and she had no dreams all night until dawn.
After that, Han Qixia worked with Lin Jingchen every day, practicing Wuqinxi, collecting herbs, drying herbs, concocting herbs, going to the market, going to the pharmacy... Her dress became more concise, her behavior became more casual, and her smile changed every day. bright day...
Suddenly, she understood what she wanted to do!
Now, she wants to study medicine with her grandfather. As for the future, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge!
Han Qixia looked at Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei calmly, her smile was gentle and indifferent, peaceful and far-reaching.
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei also laughed, finally letting go of their worries about Han Qixia. As long as Han Qixia can figure it out, life will get better day by day.
"Yue'er!" At this moment, a man in a gray straight jacket walked towards the front yard from the right side of the house, looked at them with a hearty smile, and said, "Are you and Sister Fei also here to help me dry the medicine?"
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei looked at each other and smiled, the latter hurriedly asked Ying, "Grandfather, teach me!"
"Grandfather," Nangong Yue glanced at Xiao Fei with a smile and said coquettishly, "Sister Fei and I also prepared a gift for you..." She gestured with a look, and Baihui took out Nangong Yue. With Xiao Fei these days, it was difficult to transcribe the "Nanjiang Materia Medica".
When Lin Jingchen opened it, his eyes were glowing, and he was fascinated by page after page, and murmured in his mouth: "I seem to have seen this herb on the mountain yesterday, so it is..."
Judging from his concentrated expression, it was obvious that he had already forgotten about the others present.
Nangong Yue exchanged a look with Han Qixia in a funny way. Han Qixia followed Lin Jingchen these days, and she had long been used to his temperament.
"Sister Fei," Nangongyue rolled up her sleeves and said to Xiao Fei with a smile, "Let's help grandfather get this Pinellia and Huoxiang..." As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something, and looked around. In the medicine baskets in the yard, there are also Xiangru, Bupleurum, tangerine peel, almonds...
"Sister Xia, is my grandfather preparing a medicine to relieve the heat?" Nangong Yue looked at the herbs and asked thoughtfully.
Han Qixia's eyes showed admiration, and she thought to herself: Even if her medical skills can reach half of Sister Yue's, she will definitely use them in the future.
"Sister Yue, you're right." Han Qixia nodded and said, "I heard that this year's southern Xinjiang is hotter than usual. A few days ago, when my grandfather and I went outside the city to collect herbs, we encountered quite a few passersby who were almost suffering from heat stroke. My grandfather thought that he could make some pills that he could easily carry with him. On the one hand, he could put them on consignment in the herbal tea shed beside the official road, and on the other hand, he could take some pills in exchange with the medicinal farmers in the market.”
It was the first time that Nangongyue came to Southern Xinjiang. She didn't feel too much about the climate change in Southern Xinjiang. Although she knew that it had been extremely hot recently, she only thought that the weather in Southern Xinjiang was like this. And Xiao Fei grew up in the southern border, hearing Han Qixia say this, it was thoughtful.
"Yue'er, Sister Fei," Lin Jingchen finally recovered from the book "Nanjiang Materia Medica" and praised, "This gift of yours is really worth a thousand dollars!" Page.
"Grandfather, as long as you like it."
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei looked at each other and smiled. The gift was meant to be a good idea for the other party. This book of "Nanjiang Materia Medica" has no idea how many years of dust it has accumulated in Zhuli Zhai. If Nangong Yue has not gone, then it Even if the pearl is dusty, I don't know how long it will be buried, or it will become a stack of waste paper one day. Fortunately, the owner of Zhuli Zhai is a book lover and keeps all kinds of books in collection.
Lin Jingchen finally closed the booklet and said again, "Yue'er, you can use this book of "Nanjiang Materia Medica", why don't you borrow it from me for a few days, and then return it to you after I have written it down..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Baihui and Queer behind them all smiling, Queer couldn't help but interjected, "Mr. Lin, my eldest concubine and eldest girl are already transcribing the second copy. "Although this "Nanjiang Materia Medica" is only a thin book, it really took Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei a lot of work, especially, this book involves medicinal herbs, but there is nothing wrong with it, even Queer Baihui helped Proofread several times to be foolproof.
Transcribe? Lin Jingchen thought of something, and hurriedly opened it again and glanced at it, the ink was still fresh, and he suddenly realized. It turned out that this was a book that Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei had specially written for him. Lin Jingchen was moved by the thoughts of the two little girls.
Nangong Yue simply talked to Lin Jingchen about Zhulizhai, and heard that Lin Jingchen was also very interested. After asking about the location, he also said that he would go there someday to see if he could find any useful medical books.
Thinking that the girls were so troublesome, Lin Jingchen decided to reciprocate and said with a smile: "Yue'er, sister Fei, you all leave me here for lunch today. Let you taste your grandfather's craftsmanship!"
Nangong Yue said with a smile: "Sister Fei, you can be considered a fortune. My grandfather's cooking skills are very good, and it is not easy to do it on weekdays."
As soon as he said that, many memories of his past life and his grandfather flashed quickly in Nangong Yue's mind, with a little nostalgia and emotion on his face.
And Lin Jingchen just thought it was the Lin family who told Nangong Yue, and said with a smile, "Yue'er, don't sell melons for your grandfather Wang Po!"
For a time, everyone's face burst into laughter, and the crisp laughter echoed in the yard, and even the sun seemed to become brighter.
Next, Lin Jingchen ran to the kitchen to cook, and Han Qixia followed him to help him. Looking at her posture, it is obvious that these days, she has learned more than medical skills with Lin Jingchen!
As for the medicinal materials in this courtyard, Lin Jingchen safely handed it over to Nangong Yue, who was busy with Xiao Fei and the maids.
For Xiao Fei, although it was a little hard work, she always stayed in the study room on weekdays and didn't hear anything outside the window. She had never experienced sweating like the current one.
Well, it's actually pretty good!
Under the sun, Xiao Fei's little face showed a slight smile, full of joy.
By the time they finished, Lin Jingchen's lunch was almost ready. This meal was accompanied by some fruit wine and everyone was very happy, and the dishes on the table were swept away.
After lunch, Nangong Yue bid farewell.
At this hour, the sun seemed to become more dazzling and hotter, as if summer had entered ahead of schedule.
Seeing that the sun is shining outside, Baihui specially ordered the little maid to fetch two paper umbrellas to shade the masters, and she was a little worried: it is only so hot in mid-April now, what will it be like in June and July in southern Xinjiang. Concubine Shizi is used to the weather in the capital, and I don't know if it will be uncomfortable...
"Grandfather." At this time, Xiao Fei hesitated and said, "I wonder if you can write a herbal tea recipe for Fei'er to relieve the heat?" Although Xiao Fei also knew that her request must be overkill, but She thought to herself that since her grandfather was the best doctor in the world, the recipe for herbal tea must be better than others.
For Lin Jingchen, this is just a small matter, so naturally he should.
After a cup of tea, Xiao Fei returned to the house with Nangong Yue with the herbal tea recipe, and also made an appointment with Han Qixia to come back to play chess with her.
Lin Jingchen's residence is not far from the palace, and they returned to the Zhennan palace in less than two sticks of incense sticks. Since their carriages and horses went out from the gate of East Street of the palace, they also returned from the gate of East Street as usual, but only Aggrieved Xiao Fei could only take a detour in Bixiaotang and return to Yuebiju.
After Xiao Fei returned to Yuebiju, she instructed Taoyao to call Yuebiju's steward.
Xiao Fei seldom took the initiative to seek out the stewards on weekdays, Taoyao felt a little strange, but she went immediately.
After a while, a forty-year-old woman wearing a half-new lilac-colored hang silk robe followed Taoyao into the small study, and respectfully greeted Xiao Fei, "I have seen the eldest girl."
"Mother Zheng," Xiao Fei put down the herbal tea recipe in his hand and looked at the other party, "I want to pay one hundred taels of silver."
Then Mammy Zheng was stunned. The servants of Biju Moon this month all knew that the eldest girl always thought that gold and silver were common things and never touched it. On weekdays, he has always been obsessed with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he has a somewhat ignorant taste of fireworks in the world. Even if she wanted to buy books and pens, it was Taoyao who got her money from her. Why did the girl suddenly ask herself to get so much money today? Could it be that...
Mammy Zheng's heart skipped a beat, but she immediately said to herself, don't scare yourself.
