Yingbao didn’t find it strange at all.
Because in the storybook, the coincidences between various female supporting characters and the male protagonist are all kinds of strange.
The two daughters of Mrs. Wen San are also one of the many female partners.
But these have nothing to do with you.
It is true that she is on good terms with Sister Wen Shu, but there is no need to deal with Mrs. Wen and her family.
After washing, Chun Niang used the small charcoal stove and pot that her daughter brought out to boil the dragon's beard noodles in water.
After the noodles are cooked, some of the water is poured out and mixed with crab sauce. The three of them sit on the deck, each holding a bowl and eating the noodles.
Yingbao also took out a few sesame seed cakes and distributed them to Chun Niang and Chen Zhao.
“Hey, madam, you brought your own charcoal stove.” The boat girl came over, looked at it, and said with a smile, “You are so meticulous in your preparations.”
No wonder they didn’t eat the food on the ship.
Xiao Chengjun hired a boat to go to Luzhou on a temporary basis and did not bring enough rice with him. Therefore, they had to pay extra for the food cooked by the boat girl.
Chunniang didn’t want Xiao Chengjun to spend money on her family, so she started her own business to make food.
"It's my daughter's carefulness that makes the boat lady laugh," Chun Niang said.
The boat girl smiled and said: "Anyone who laughs but doesn't laugh is a person who is out and about. Be careful and you won't be punished."
The two chatted for a while, and the smell of fish gradually wafted from the stern of the boat. The boat girl hurriedly opened the pot and started cooking.
Today it is still boiled fish, plus a large plate of dark shredded pickles and a large bucket of steamed rice.
The fish was netted in the river this morning. The scales were scraped off and boiled directly in the pot. Then some salt was added, so it smelled a little fishy.
The crew and guards didn't think anything of it, and the food was delicious as usual, but the Wen family, mother and daughter, couldn't eat anything.
Wen Tian and Wen Jiao were soaked in the water for a long time yesterday. Although they drank **** and jujube soup after being rescued, they still caught cold.
In addition, I was already a little seasick, and now I smelled the fish soup, and I felt bad all over.
“Auntie, I feel dizzy and want to vomit.” Wen Jiao lay softly on the mattress, her face as pale as paper.
Wen Tian vomited immediately, crying while vomiting. "I don't want to eat this food, wuwuwuwu... mother, I feel so uncomfortable."
Mrs. Wen's third wife, Mrs. Lin, was frightened and quickly ordered her maid to call someone.
The maid knew that only the children of the Jiang family on the whole ship knew medical skills, so she immediately ran to Chun Niang and begged: "Please help my ladies, they are all sick and they are vomiting all over the floor."
Ying Bao thought for a while and asked her mother to help her carry the medicine box and go to the cabin where Mrs. Wen San and her family lived to check.
Sisters Wen Tian and Wen Jiao are indeed not doing well. Not only are they vomiting, they also have fever and cough.
Ying Bao took their pulses and said, "If the wind evil enters the body, I will give them acupuncture to lower their fever first, and then I will prescribe a medicine. You can buy some medicine at the next pier and decoct it."
In fact, her cave also stored some pills for treating wind and cold, but they were all added with Wudingzhi, and the quantity was not large, so she did not want to use them for Mrs. Wen San and others.
Besides, the problem of the two sisters is not serious, it is just caused by cold. As long as they rest for a while and drink some medicine, they will probably get better.
As soon as Wen Tian heard about the need for acupuncture, she immediately refused: "No! Go away!"
Then she cried to Mrs. Lin: "Mom, I don't want to give an acupuncture. What kind of medical skills does a child like her have? I want to get off the boat. Mom, I feel so uncomfortable."
Lin hugged her daughter and patted her for a while, then turned to Ying Bao and said, "Is there no other way?"
Yingbao said expressionlessly: "Yes, you can take them off the boat to find another doctor." She was telling the truth. The Wen sisters were seasick, and staying on the boat would only worsen their condition.
When Mrs. Lin heard this, she thought that Ying Bao was being arrogant on purpose, and couldn't help but get angry: "What did you say? My son is so sick, yet you are so cruel and make fun of him."
Chunniang frowned when she saw this, grabbed her daughter's hand and pulled her out of the cabin.
From behind, Mrs. Lin's roar came: "Where is your kindness as a doctor? Jiang Yingbao! You are not worthy of studying medicine! Our Wen family is really blind, teaching a disciple like you."
Yingbao became angry when she heard this, pushed away Chun Niang's hand, returned to the cabin and said to Lin: "Mrs. Wen San, it's not up to you to decide whether I am worthy of studying medicine. You also know medical skills, and you should know that your daughter always Seasickness is bad for recovery, what did I say wrong?”
Mrs. Lin paused and shouted to herself: "Anyway, you did it on purpose. Why didn't you give it to my son when you brought the medicine? You just let us get off the boat and find another doctor. You just deliberately made things difficult."
Ying Bao was surprised and looked at Mrs. Wen San: "How did you know that I brought medicine? Then did you know that the medicine I brought did not treat your daughter's illness?"
Lin was speechless for a moment.
Yingbao said again: "Mrs. Wen San, if you are short of silver, you can borrow it from me. For Mr. Wen's sake, I can lend you some money for emergencies. But I, Jiang Yingbao, don't owe you anything to the Wen family, so don't even think about using the money you had earlier." Use your excuses to manipulate me."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the cabin.
On the deck, Xiao Chengjun was looking at her with a stern face, his eyes full of disdain.
This girl is really bad. Not only does she have no sympathy at such a young age, she also disrespects her elders.
It is really insidious and cunning that such a character can win the appreciation of the king.
When he arrived in Luzhou, he was going to write a letter and tell Murong Xian everything that happened on the way, letting him know that this girl was a vicious person.
Yingbao didn't know what Xiao Chengjun was thinking. After returning to the cabin with her mother, she started reading and studying Zhu Youke's books.
Not long after, the ship passed a pier, and Xiao Chengjun sent someone off the ship to invite a doctor to treat the Wen sisters.
The doctor also proposed to let the patient disembark for treatment, but Lin refused.
Because she didn't want to be separated from the son of the most powerful family in the capital.
Seeing that Mr. Lin refused to get off the boat, Xiao Chengjun had no choice but to promise: "You guys go down to see a doctor first, and I'll let the boat wait here. We can leave together when the daughter's health improves."
When Mrs. Lin heard this, she was overjoyed and thanked her quickly: "Thank you very much, young master, for your consideration. I will take them off the boat right now."
Xiao Chengjun nodded and asked Nan Zhu, his personal servant, to take the mother and daughter off the boat and place them in an inn in the county.
Chen Zhao returned to the cabin from the deck and told Chun Niang the news he heard: "Master Xiao asked Mrs. Lin and her family to rest in peace and recuperate. He will wait here for them to recover before setting off. Aunt, there is a county town not far from here. Should we also go to the city and have a look?"
Chunniang couldn't make up her mind and turned her eyes to her daughter: "Bao'er, can we go?"
Yingbao nodded: "Ask Xiao Chengjun first. If he stays here for three to five days, we will enter the city."
So, Chun Niang went to ask Xiao Chengjun: "Master Xiao, how long are we going to stay here? I want to take the children to the county town to have a look."
Xiao Chengjun said calmly: "Three days at most. If you want to enter the city, go as early as possible. You must come back before noon the day after tomorrow."
When Chun Niang saw that he agreed, she immediately came back and told her daughter.
“Xiao Langjun said that we can come back before noon the day after tomorrow. He will stay here for three days and asks us to leave early and come back early.”
Chen Zhao jumped up happily: "Then let's get off the boat quickly!"
Staying on the boat these days has been too uncomfortable. Apart from eating, I just lie down and sleep, or watch Ying Bao fight with her hands. It's so boring.
Now that she can finally get off the boat and move around, she can’t wait.
