Fast Time Travel: Forced to Attack the Male Lead

Chapter 422 The Tribulation of Xianju 8
"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll test you again."

The old man put down what he was doing, walked under the lychee tree in the courtyard, and got down on the pier. His hands covered with zou patterns closed irregularly and leaned against the table.

Xia Tong also followed, although he didn't know what to do.

The old man raised his head and glanced at Xia Tong.He patted the stool next to him again.

"Sit down."

"Grandpa, please tell me."

"Tell me, the last time I accidentally heard me talking about honeysuckle, do you know what I mentioned later?"

"What did you mention?"

Xia Tong murmured softly, as if thinking.

She didn't seem to remember it for a while, after all, she was just chatting at that time, so she listened casually.

"Why don't you give me a hint, Grandpa?"

"it is good!"

"That herb is so common, it can be seen everywhere. Especially on the lawn, there are a lot of it."

Xia Tong pursed her lips, thinking.

"Houttuynia cordata?"

It's not everywhere, but you can still eat it.

"Ha ha……"

"Houttuynia cordata is everywhere, very common. But it's not what I'm talking about."

"what is that?"

"Let me give you another reminder, this grass has mucus, and it doesn't smell very good. Of course, its fruit is like a circle, and it will dance in the wind when it blows."

"

"Dandelions?"

The old man smiled and motioned for Xia Tong to continue.

"Hey, grandpa, you didn't refute, so that means you guessed right?"

"It can be said like this."

"That's it. Grandpa wants to test the effect of dandelions on me?"

"Why not, anyway, you are my apprentice now, why, do you still want to go back on your word?"

"No, yes, of course."

"Dandelion, first of all, has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It can be used for heat-toxin syndrome. It is especially good at clearing liver heat. It can treat red eyes, swelling and pain of liver heat, sore mouth and tongue, and various infections. Such as lung infection, suppurative Diseases, such as skin infections, suppuration, etc.

Second, it also has the function of clearing heat and dispelling stagnation, which can prevent the occurrence of nodules. It has the effect of reducing swelling and dispelling stagnation for all boils, swollen toxins, scrofula, and phlegm nucleus, especially for breast Nodules and breast hyperplasia have a very good improvement effect.

Then, it is diuretic and stranguria-relieving. Dandelion has the effects of clearing away heat, diuresis, and dredging stranguria, and is used for symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and endless urination.You can also use dandelion to soak water, dandelion soaked in water can also diuretic and help urine to pass.

Fourth, the effect of clearing heat and promoting gallbladder. Dandelion has a very significant effect of clearing liver and promoting gallbladder, detoxifying and reducing jaundice. It has a good antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect on various hepatitis, cholecystitis and pancreatitis.

Fifth, antibacterial. Dandelion can effectively inhibit bacteria. Like the honeysuckle just mentioned, it has a strong inhibitory effect, especially after injury.

Finally, it also has the effect of preventing and treating anemia, which can effectively prevent and treat anemia, and the iron element contained in it can effectively supplement iron. "

"It's so good, can any prescription be used?"

"Of course not. No matter how good a medicine is, it has its own scope of application and target audience."

Suitable people for dandelion are patients with acute mastitis, patients with gastric ulcer, some patients with gastritis, patients with boils and so on.

Taboo crowd, patients with yin-cold syndrome, pregnant women, etc. should not eat together. "

The old man nodded repeatedly where Xia Tong could not see.

He had thought of letting Xia Tong learn herbal medicine before, after all, her family was poor.

Knowing some herbal medicines, when you have a minor illness, you can solve it without spending a lot of money to see a doctor.

At the same time, if you know some herbs, you can pick some herbs and dry them, and sell them in the medical hall.

Although most of them are not very valuable, they are better than nothing.

The reason why I have not spoken is that this society has too much prejudice against women, although on the surface it is said that girls are good.

However, when you go out, you will see if there is any important work that no one will hand over to a woman.

What's more, it is medicine, which is connected with life.

Nobody goes to a woman for healing.

But now, since Xia Tong has this intention, he will help her.

People, you can't just do nothing all your life, so what about women, women can still make a world out of it.

"well!"

"Tongtong knows a lot, it's beyond my imagination."

"In that case, let me tell you something else about this medicine."

"it is good!"

Xia Tong obediently put his hands in front of his legs, straightened his back, and looked serious.

"Like most herbs, it can be used as medicine or eaten alone. There are two ways to eat dandelion. The first one is to mix dandelion in cold sauce. Blanch the washed dandelion in boiling water, drain it, and use it Rinse with cold water. Serve with chili oil, monosodium glutamate, salt, sesame oil, vinegar, mashed garlic, etc., and you can make a delicious dish. It’s best to eat in summer, refreshing and refreshing. Of course, you can also choose according to your own taste Mix them into side dishes with different flavors."

He looked at the lychee tree above his head. Huge lychees were hanging from the branches, and some branches were tall and straight.

And some were so pressed by the fruit that they couldn't straighten up, and they were about to fall.

Looking at the ground, you can faintly see the fallen lychees.

The old man couldn't finish it, and the lychee tree behind them was 20 years old. From Xia Tong's memory, it seemed to have always existed.

It seems to have grown up, and I really want to, just like the one in the memory, the same old.

The big ones almost covered the house, and the heavy fruits hung down on the roof, pressing against the thatch that covered the house.

One or two lychees were extremely naughty, arguing to fall off the tree to find a new place.

Unfortunately, it fell on the roof, or fell in the gap of the thatch, but it doesn't matter, because their fate is the same, that is to stay in place dry, waiting for the wind and rain , the scorching sun.Then, lose all the water in your body.In the end, it turned into a dry mass, maybe it was a seed, maybe it was a pile of dark things that couldn't see the original appearance.

If you are lucky enough to be seen by others, you may make random guesses.However, there is a high probability that you will guess right, after all, there is only such an edible lychee tree in this yard.

According to the principle of abandoning the distance and seeking the near, it will be said to be litchi.

But, what does that matter, anyway, it is dead and has no value anymore.

If you are lucky, you may fall into the ditch behind the house, where although the sun is not very sunny, the soil is fertile and the rain is plentiful.The lucky dropped fruit is likely to germinate and start a new life for oneself.

Like an ambitious young man, he bid farewell to his relatives with enthusiasm, and went to this world full of dangers without losing true love.As for the result, it depends on one's own good fortune, just like this big tree, and like everything in the world.

The old man has a grandson who looks a year or two older than her.

However, she was much smarter than her, and she found a job in the government at a young age.

As for what it is, she is not very clear.

However, based on the reaction of the people in the village, it should not be low.

His name is Rigorous. It is said that this name was given to him by his knowledgeable parents, which can be said to be the envy of others.

Rigorous, as his name suggests, he always likes to keep a straight face, expressionless.

Most people in the village dare not interact with him, and I don't know if it's because of fear.

However, he treated himself well.Like a big brother, you can make other girls envy and hate.

Strictly live with the elderly, but not come back every day.

Sometimes, if you are not very busy, you will come back once a day.Sometimes, I really can't get away, so I only come back once a few days, half a month, or once a month.

However, most of the time it is busy.

Fortunately, the old man is used to living alone, otherwise, he would die of loneliness.

Xia Tong looked regretfully at the lychee that was within reach.

I know that the lychees in this yard are not eaten up every year, but rotten.

In the first two years, the old people would feel that it was a pity or something, and let those who like to eat pick it.

As soon as the words came out, almost every household brought baskets, and those who climbed trees were responsible for climbing trees, and those squatting on the ground were responsible for picking them up.

After one family finished picking, the other family followed suit.

For several days, the yard was full of people.

Even, what's more, they came to pick them at night, as if they were doing something shady.

Some people just got it back the day before and haven't finished eating it yet.The next day, I hurriedly brought a bigger one, for fear that it would be picked by others and I would not get anything to eat.

The old man who likes to be quiet originally didn't have any time to rest in those few days.

Just fell asleep, and was woken up by yelling again.

This is not the most excessive, in the process of climbing a tree, someone fell down, thinking, anyway, the old man is a doctor, so he just prescribed medicine at his house.

It is not difficult to prescribe this medicine, but it is very difficult to get it for free.

One by one, like shrews who scolded people in the street, they cursed without any image.

What are you talking about? You asked us to climb the tree. The tree belongs to you. If someone broke it, it would be fine if you were not asked to pay for it. What’s wrong with prescribing some medicine?Besides, how much is this little medicine worth?Two or three banknotes are not enough to fit between your teeth. Why are you being stingy? Your family is so rich, why don't you make less?

At that time, this matter was widely spread.

Everyone scolded that woman for being ignorant, taking other people's things, and being so arrogant.

However, discussion is discussion, but no one dares to stand up.

They seem to have forgotten that the other party is just an old man who often helps them.

Admittedly, most people are right.

However, their silence was also the trigger of the incident.

So, what is the human heart?

People are greedy and ugly.

The old man seemed to be remembering something, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Accompanied by the sound of cicada, the old man's old and powerful voice sounded: "In the past, my strict mother always made this dish. I still remember the happy appearance of the family."

I don’t know whether it’s the cicada’s voice that sounds better, or the old man’s.

Xia Tong felt that the words just now had a special charm.

The old man's eyes gradually dimmed.

Probably thinking, such a day, I can't go back.

"Let's not talk about it, let's talk about the second way to eat. Dandelion tea, wash the dandelions, put them in the pot, add water to cover the dandelions. After the fire boils, cover the pot and simmer for an hour on a low heat. Strain out the tea Dregs, you can drink it after it cools down."

Listening to the old man's proficient words, Xia Tong thought to himself, he should understand it very well.

"When grandpa was young, he must have loved cooking."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because grandpa can tell you how to eat many kinds of herbs."

The old man nodded without refuting or denying it.

All he can do is a little bit.

His lover is the master.

"By the way, Grandpa, how long has Brother Yan Jin not been back?"

"It's been a few days."

"By the way, when will Tongtong go back?"

Xia Tong looked at the herbs that were drying in the yard. She wanted to go back at night and get the herbs into the house.

"Grandpa, when I came, I told my mother that I would stay all day, so I couldn't make it."

"I see!"

"You asked me to ask Aunt Li to cook."

The old man said that he was about to get up, Xia Tong quickly stood up together, and said: "No need, grandpa, you sit down, don't bother Aunt Li. It's hard for me to come here once, I'll make it for you to eat, let you Look at my handiwork."

"Ha ha……"

"That's good! Tongtong's craftsmanship is naturally good, don't look at it."

"Grandpa, you are going to lift me up to the sky."

"Then grandpa, you should rest here first, I will come soon."

"It's not urgent, it's not very rude, Tongtong can take his time."

After bidding farewell to the old man, Xia Tong followed a path, turned two corners, and arrived at the kitchen smoothly.

The kitchen is designed using bamboo materials. As soon as you enter, you can smell the fragrance of bamboo.

Moreover, the kitchen is very ventilated and not too hot.

Moreover, the smoke from cooking smoke will not be exhausted.

Xia Tong walked to a table and looked at the dishes on it. They were all fresh, and they should be newly bought.

She picked white radish, fish, mushrooms, and various vegetables and fruits.

She first scraped the scales off the fish.

The sharp knife edge turned around and moved quickly, the fish scales slid off the fish at the speed of the naked eye, revealing the fresh and tender meat.

The fish was cleaned in two or three strokes.

Xia Tong chopped the fish into several small pieces and put them in a small basin.

Because there were only two people, she didn't choose many dishes.

Afterwards, Xia Tong squatted down in front of the stove and quickly started a fire.

Chili, dried medicinal fruit, put into the pot quickly, and after a while, it boiled. She wanted to cook the fish, so she had to make the base material first.

After that, Xia Tong used her free time to process the vegetables she wanted to use.

Xia Tong moved around in the fragrant kitchen, fast but not chaotic.

After an hour, all the dishes are out of the pan.

Xia Tong looked at the dishes on the table, they were all delicious.

She nodded with satisfaction and quickly took off the apron around her waist.

Then, he took the serving plate and put it against the edge of the table.

Because the dishes have just come out of the pan and have not cooled down, they are very hot, especially the dishes with soup, even the sides of the bowl are hot.Therefore, Xia Tong had to go up slowly one by one carefully.

After all, if something unexpected happened, it would be a real waste, and her whole afternoon work would be in vain.

Xia Tong walked outside step by step.

Slowly, they reached the yard.

The old man didn't know when he fell asleep, leaning on the chair, his head went up and down all of a sudden.

The old man has always had very little sleep, so the old man Xu has no habit of taking a nap. The reason for today's situation is probably because of the hot weather. Xia Tong subconsciously slowed down his pace.

It was like walking on a catwalk. It was a short distance, but it took her several minutes.

Xia Tong consciously put the plate on the table.

Unexpectedly, there was a sound.

Xia Tong was so frightened that her heart was about to burst out. She subconsciously looked in the direction of the old man, wanting to make sure if she was awakened by the sound she made just now.

The old man didn't look like he was about to wake up.

Xia Tong patted his heart.

Slowly, he arranged the dishes one by one and was about to sit down when a voice suddenly came: "It smells so good."

"Same, you're awake."

"Ah."

The old man sat up straight, probably because he just woke up, and his mental outlook is not particularly good.

However, it can be seen that he is very happy now.

"Grandpa, did I accidentally wake you up just now?"

"No, I sleep very well. How could your cat-like voice wake me up?"

"I, it's because I smelled this dish and I got hungry, so I woke up."

"is it?"

Xia Tong happily looked at the old man.

"If grandpa likes it, then eat it quickly, otherwise it will get cold in a while."

She stood up and took the bowl and chopsticks for the old man.

"Okay, okay, eat, eat all of them."

"Ah."

"Xia Xia made fish."

Xia Tong held the chopsticks and didn't start to pick up the food. The etiquette from childhood told her that when eating with the elders, she had to wait for them to move the chopsticks before she could move.

"Yes, I put health-preserving herbs and fruits in it. Eating them will help grandpa's health."

The old man first took a spoonful of soup, put it in a porcelain bowl, waved his hand, and smelled it.

"My Tongtong's cooking skills are improving very quickly. I still remember the last time I ate your cooking, it was half a month ago. At that time, although it was delicious, it was not as good as it is now, and it was about to catch up with the chef's cooking skills. gone."

The old man took a sip of the soup and nodded in satisfaction.

After that, I tasted the meat again.

"Grandpa likes it, as long as you say it so fast, I think the same."

Xia Tong lowered his head, unconsciously flickering his eyes.

"Maybe it's Grandpa, you haven't tasted my dishes for a long time, and now you're unconsciously exaggerating."

"Oh, don't worry, it's all made by Tongtong anyway, it's delicious."

Seeing the excited look of the old man, Xia Tong smiled unconsciously.

She rarely sees him like this scene in front of her, so she should really like it.

"Hey, Tongtong, what are you doing sitting there? Hurry up and move your chopsticks, or I'll finish eating you soon, so don't cry."

After hearing the old man's words, Xia Tong couldn't help laughing, and the water vapor flickered in his pupils.

"Ha ha……

"Oh, how is it possible, grandpa? Besides, it doesn't matter if you finish eating. It means that Bi likes my cooking. I'm too happy to be happy. How could I cry?"

"Besides, you must be reluctant to finish eating by yourself."

"Too."

"However, Tongtong, you should eat it quickly. Liangliang is really not delicious, and you may get sick."

"it is good."
