Zhao bowed his head and saw that there was only a little sweet soup left in the stew cup. His small mouth pursed and his face was full of grievances, but he finally put up with it.
"If only Xueer likes it." He took the stew cup pitifully, and then, like a treasure, licked it with his little tongue, and was not willing to drink the poor sweet soup.
Gu Qianxue, seeing Zhao's appearance like this, really feels lovely and pitiful.
Although Zhao's mother is in her thirties, her mind is just like a child of several years old. She has no appearance of an adult at all. Gu Qianxue treats Zhao as if she were her sister.
Gu Qianxue winked at mammy Li, and she understood it. They went to the corner of the room.
"Miss, is there something wrong with this sweet soup?" Asked mother Li.
Gu Qianxue frowned tightly, "this red fruit, my mother, she had better not eat it."
"Why?" Mother Li was surprised.
"If you eat too much, I'm afraid it will cause miscarriage." Gu Qianxue replied seriously.
"Ah Mother Li was so shocked that she could count on thousands of calculations and prevent thousands of defenses? "But miss, if it can cause miscarriage, why do you let your wife drink it?" With that, he looked back in horror at Zhao, who was eating sweet soup like a greedy cat.
Gu Qianxue is sure that the red fruit of Nanyue is the modern hawthorn.
Hawthorn on the uterus has an exciting effect, will promote the contraction of the uterus, may lead to abortion, so pregnant women had better eat less hawthorn, in order to avoid the situation of abortion. In the case of Zhao, hawthorn should be eradicated.
"It should be no problem to take less. What's more, I don't want to tell my mother about these unseen things. She is not mature in mind. If she gets angry and starts to have fetal Qi, the consequences will be even more serious." Gu Qianxue said calmly, but his fist under his sleeve was pinched tightly.
"But what to do tomorrow? If the lady asks for the sweet soup of red rare fruits, and the maid can't bring it out, isn't the lady going to make trouble again?" Mother Li was worried.
"I guess it's not my fault." Gu Qianxue sighed, with self reproach on his face, and his clenched fists loosened. "I take care of other people's mothers all day, but I neglect my own mother. Mother, she likes to eat acid seriously, but I didn't think of a way earlier. It's my fault. "
Mother Li thought of Ping'er, and her face became more fierce. "Ping'er, that little bitch, I'll kill her!"
Gu Qianxue chuckled, "Mammy, don't be angry. If you don't find out what happened, don't let go of any bad people, but don't injustice the good people. The red treasure fruit is a local specialty. Maybe the people in their village don't know the harm of it. I'll send someone to check it out. If there's any misunderstanding, I'll let them know that I'm good at Gu Qianxue Gu Qianxue's voice is getting colder and colder. In the past, his eyes with a smile always look like a layer of ice barrier.
Mother Li was the dowry of the Zhao family. She was very loyal. She had been protecting the Zhao family since she entered the government.
See Gu Qianxue so, mother Li's face is full of joy, "God bless, the eldest lady finally grew up, sensible, can protect the wife." Say, the corner of the eye has tear.
Gu Qianxue can't laugh or cry, where is the eldest lady growing up, is clearly changed the individual!
"Mammy has been paying close attention to Ping'er in the past few days. If she shows up, don't show it. Just tell me later." Gu Qianxue advises.
"Yes, miss." Mother Li only felt that the eldest lady was extremely reliable. The heavy burden on her shoulders was lightened in an instant. What's more, she felt that the lady who was serious was extremely dignified and had the style of an old marshal.
Take Yulian back to listen to the snow yard, Gu Qianxue back to the room.
"Where is Ping'er's hometown?" Gu Qianxue asked Yulian.
"Miss Hui, Ping'er's hometown is Hexian county. If you take a carriage, it will be one day and one night away from the capital." Jade lotus answers.
Gu Qianxue nodded, "tomorrow morning, you go to the post station to hire a carriage, and personally go to Hexian county to ask if the local pregnant women have the taboo of taking red fruits."
"Yes, miss." Yulian agreed.
"Yucui, you have a mission, too." Gu Qianxue said again.
Jade Cui way, "maidservant is in."
"From tomorrow, you don't have to go with me to the palace. You can clean up all the servants in the peony yard and the tingxue courtyard. You can write down who is close to which yard and come back and I'll see."
"Yes, miss." Yucui also took the order.
Yulian worried, "Miss, my wife likes sour soup. If you don't use red fruits, what do you use?"
Gu Qianxue said with a smile, "there are more sourness and sweetness than red treasure fruit sweet soup, such as sour plum soup."
"Sour plum soup?" Yucui is puzzled, but only listening to the name makes her feel sour and appetizing.
Gu Qianxue suddenly frowned and stroked his stomach. She didn't like sour taste. Just to make Zhao drink less Hawthorn soup, she had to drink one cup at a time. Now her stomach is sour. Now I mention the sour plum soup, I feel that all the bones are sour and soft.
"Go and help me find something. I want plum, licorice, mint, cardamom, and some rock sugar and osmanthus sugar." These things are available in the kitchen of Gu Fu."Yes." Yucui took the order and went to the kitchen to look for something.
"Do we have stews in the kitchen?" Gu Qianxue asked Yulian.
"Miss Hui, yes." Jade lotus answers.
"OK, let's go to the kitchen." Say, take jade lotus to small kitchen and go. Have not walked to the door, just feel the appetite more sour, frown, "go to find me a steamed bread."
"Steamed bread?" Jade lotus doubts, only think Miss hungry, "Miss, with the maid for you to fry a few dishes?"
"No, just steamed bread." Gu Qianxue covers his chest.
The main component of human gastric juice is hydrochloric acid. Because of taking a lot of acid soup, the stomach is too acidic, so the stomach acid is unbearable. Steamed bread and other pasta for alkaline, alkaline and acid neutralization, is to temporarily alleviate gastric acid.
So, when Yucui collected Gu Qianxue's materials and rushed back to the small kitchen of the hearing snow courtyard, she saw that the dignified and wise lady was sitting on the kitchen bench and eating white steamed bread. She was stunned, "Miss, are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry. I have a bad appetite." Gu Qianxue said as he put the remaining steamed bread into his mouth.
Yulian worried, rushed to the tea, "Miss, drink some water, don't choke."
After Gu Qianxue drank a cup of tea, he got up to wash his hands, and then took the thing Yucui got, "come on, we start to make sour plum soup."
Sour plum soup is very easy to make. First, soak the same amount of four kinds of materials, such as dark plum, licorice, mint and nutmeg, for a long time. Then put it into the stew cup and water and stew it with martial fire for a long time. Then turn the martial fire to slow fire and put in the rock sugar. When the rock sugar is dissolved, drain the dregs, pour out the soup, add the sweet scented osmanthus sugar, and then make it.
This toss, has been more than an hour, but made a whole pot of sour plum soup.
"Wow, it's really delicious!" Cui'er is greedy. She tastes it first and shouts out that it is good to drink. "After drinking, it is not only sour and sweet, but also has a clear throat. After drinking, there is a fragrance of Osmanthus in the mouth. It's good to drink and drink!"
