The general's wife knows medicine

"Peipei, thank you! Don't worry, although we don't have the ability now, we will work hard to earn money to pay you back." Tang Yan took the purse given by Tang Peipei and promised.

With Tang Peipei's money, I think I can take care of my mother-in-law's illness and her health.

Tang Yan was sincerely grateful to Tang Peipei. She didn't expect that no one from her mother's family was willing to help. It was this cousin from the next room who gave them the greatest help.

"It's okay. I believe you."

Tang Peipei was concerned about Tang Yan's current physical condition again. She secretly took her pulse while holding her hand. Seeing that everything was fine, she didn't say anything more.

I wanted to keep the two of them for lunch at noon, but Tang Yan said that Liu Qingcheng's mother couldn't even get out of bed now, so she had to go back to take care of her.

Tang's mother saw that someone was coming at this time and thought that the family probably had not prepared Laba porridge.

The cooked Laba porridge was put into a small jar, enough for three people, and Tang Yan was asked to take it back to eat, which could also be considered as celebrating the festival.

Tang Yan took it gratefully, thinking about the scene of going to her mother's house early this morning, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Tang Yan and Liu Qingcheng left.

Tang Peipei told her mother the purpose of Tang Yan's visit and that she had borrowed fifty taels of silver.

In fact, the fifty taels were more of a gift than a loan. You have to know that given the current situation of Tang Yan's family, it would take a long time to pay back the fifty taels.

"You did the right thing. It wasn't easy for Tang Yan either." Tang's mother sighed.

When Tang Yan chose Liu Qingcheng, Tang Yan's mother was extremely reluctant, one of the reasons being that the family was too poor.

I originally wanted to offer a higher bride price so that Liu Qingcheng would give up on his own, but who knew that he actually earned that money.

But it was also because of this that Liu Qingcheng spent almost all the money in his family as a betrothal gift.

Although the two got married, their lives became difficult from then on.

Things seemed to be getting better after all, but now... Oh!

"Mom, now that we know this, why don't we go see Auntie this afternoon?" Tang Peipei asked.

"Well, go ahead, go and have a look, and buy some more things." Tang's mother instructed. She didn't want to go back to the village, so as to avoid being gossiped about.

Tang Peipei also understood what her mother meant, so she took the money and went out.

Because Tang Yan did not explain clearly what disease Liu Qingcheng's mother Chen Qiuniang had in the morning, Tang Peipei just bought some cakes and went to Tangjia Village.

As soon as I arrived at Tangjia Village, I met Tang Peipei's aunt and uncle.

"Hey, isn't this Peipei? He is not a member of our Tang family anymore, so how dare he come to our Tangjia Village?" said Tang Peipei's aunt Tang Wanrou.

I don’t know what the original owner’s grandfather was thinking. Given her sarcastic appearance, why did he name her Wanrou? It’s simply an insult to the word Wanrou.

Tang Peipei ignored her and walked straight towards Tang Yan's house.

Seeing that Tang Peipei ignored her, Tang Wanrou was so angry that she walked up to him and grabbed his arm.

He raised his hand, ready to hit Tang Peipei.

Tang Peipei didn't expect Tang Wanrou to attack directly. She reacted a little slowly and was actually hit on the shoulder by Tang Wanrou.

Fortunately, the clothes are thick in winter, so it doesn’t hurt too much.

Tang Peipei glared at Tang Wanrou angrily, scaring her so much that she staggered.

Tang Peipei patted the shoulder that was hit, "Tang Wanrou, I forgive you for the first time, but if it happens next time, don't blame me for being rude."

After Tang Peipei finished speaking, she turned and left.

Tang Wanrou stared blankly at Tang Peipei as she walked away, then turned around and said to her second sister-in-law, "Second sister-in-law, is that Tang Peipei?"

Tang Liu nodded, "It's her, but I didn't expect that after not seeing her for a few months, this girl has become so vicious."

They didn't know that Tang Peipei hated the Tang family so much that even speaking to them would make her feel sick.

Naturally, I won't be nice to them.

Tang Yanben went out to get some water and saw Tang Peipei walking towards her house from a distance.

She quickly put down the basin and went to meet him.

"Why are you here? It's so cold." Tang Yan quickly welcomed Tang Peipei into the house.

Tang Peipei walked into the room and found that except for the lack of wind, the room was not very hot.

It's so cold, and there's no charcoal burning?

There are patients and pregnant women at home. How can they survive in such cold weather?

If she had known earlier, she should have bought some charcoal and sent it over.

Tang Peipei suggested going to see Chen Jinhua.

Tang Yan brought Tang Peipei into Chen Jinhua's room.

Chen Jinhua, who was lying on the bed, heard the noise, looked up, and saw that it was Tang Peipei. She struggled to get up.

Tang Peipei quickly stepped forward to support her, "Aunt, just lie down, I just came to see you." Tang Peipei handed her the cake in her hand, "Aunt, I heard that you were sick, I thought that taking medicine would make your mouth bitter, so I bought you some cakes, and you won't feel so bitter after taking the medicine."

Chen Jinhua lay on the bed with a smile in her eyes, "Thank you for thinking about me."

"It's my duty. You took good care of me when we were in the village." Tang Peipei took the opportunity to hold Chen Jinhua's hand.

While talking to Chen Jinhua, he secretly took her pulse.

The pulse is deep, thin and soft, with weak fluctuations, which is a typical sign of qi and blood deficiency.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Tang Peipei asked.

"Oh! I don't know, I just suddenly felt dizzy, and almost fainted before. I always feel weak all over, and sometimes I have a headache. Oh! I'm old, and these illnesses have come to me."

"Look at what you said. People get sick regardless of age. Besides, you are not old. When my sister gives birth to your grandchildren, you will have to take care of them."

"Haha~ Peipei girl is really good at talking, you are right." When Chen Jinhua heard about taking care of her grandson, she felt much better.

"Auntie, how long have you been ill?"

"It happened occasionally before, but it didn't have much of an impact, so I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was because I didn't get enough rest." Chen Jinhua paused, "Just two days ago, I was washing clothes, and suddenly I stood up and felt dizzy. If Yan'er hadn't supported me in time, I don't know what would have happened to me."

It seems to be almost right. No wonder it costs one tael of silver a month. There must be ginseng in it, and ginseng is not cheap these days.

Tang Peipei chatted with Chen Jinhua for a while.

"Aunt, you should have a good rest and don't think too much. Once you get well, I'll need you to take care of my sister." Tang Peipei stood up.

"I know, thank you!" Chen Jinhua talked to Tang Peipei for a while and felt a little exhausted.

Tang Peipei left the room.

Tang Yan is making medicine for Chen Jinhua.

Tang Peipei walked over and saw the medicine bag next to it.

"Sister, can I see what medicine is in there?"

Tang Yan didn't know Tang Peipei's purpose, but she nodded anyway.

Tang Peipei looked at the medicine inside. There was no ginseng in it, but codonopsis, which is very similar to ginseng.

Although both of them are ginseng, there are huge differences between them.

Moreover, the medicine prescribed was obviously not very effective, yet it cost one or two taels of silver. It seemed that my cousin and her family had been cheated.

Where did this quack doctor come from? He actually prescribed the wrong medicine for such a simple case of qi and blood deficiency.
