The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Zong Yue's reply made Yang Qi's heart throb. Even though she already knew what kind of person Zong Yue was and knew that Zong Yue would definitely agree to her, after hearing Zong Yue's word for word, his determination to clear the grievances for his grandfather, and his resolution to never return until Loulan was conquered, Yang Qi felt that this extremely difficult task of clearing the grievances for his grandfather did not seem so scary.

Yang Qi looked at Zong Yue, took out a five-hundred-liang silver note, and said, "Zong Yue, I will leave the management of the herbal medicine shop to you. I will let Mother He take the account book every seven days. Here is five hundred liang. If you need money urgently, you can melt the gold bracelet first. If it is still not enough, I will find a way."

Zong Yue took the banknote from Yang Qi and said, "Miss, I will work hard to run this shop well."

Yang Qi nodded and said, "Zong Yue, what do you think about this shop now?"

Zong Yue had learned medicine and pulse diagnosis from his master since he was young, and later worked in Xu's herbal medicine shop. He was very familiar with the overall operation of the herbal medicine shop. As early as when Yang Qi arranged him to work in Xu's herbal medicine shop, Zong Yue had vaguely guessed Yang Qi's intention and had already made plans in his mind. After listening to Yang Qi's words, he replied: "Miss, my idea is to open this shop as a prepared medicine shop. Regarding the source of medicinal materials, the safest way is to buy them from major distribution centers. I have followed my master and ancestors since I was young, and I still have some connections in major distribution centers. However, in this way, the cost of the shop will be too high. Now that the herbal medicine shop has just opened, we only need to buy from the herbal medicine distributors in Beijing."

Yang Qi nodded. What Zong Yue said coincided with what he was thinking: "Just do as you say."

Zong Yue looked around and saw no sign of Steward Song and Mother He returning, so he took out a booklet from his bosom, handed it to Yang Qi, and said, "Miss, this is what our Grandmaster passed on to me at the time. The contents inside are all the Grandmaster's life's hard work and experience."

Yang Qi looked at the booklet in front of him. It looked like it was quite old. The cover had "Notes of Experience" written on it. It seemed to be the experience of his grandfather's many years of studying medicine. However, in his previous life, Zong Yueke did not give this booklet to him.

Yang Qi took the booklet and asked, "Zong Yue, have you read the contents here?"

Zong Yue nodded and said, "Miss, I have finished reading it. When the master entrusted it to me, he said that this notebook was his life's work and he couldn't bear to bury it, so he hoped that I could carry it forward. But Zong Yue is incompetent, and I still don't understand the contents of many books."

Yang Qi didn't open it yet, and just put it away. First, he was worried that it would be difficult to explain to Song Ri when he came back, and second, his grandfather's medical skills were so advanced, and he knew nothing about medicine now. Studying his grandfather's notes directly would be like reading a book from heaven.

Here, Song Ri brought He's mother back to the shop, and He's mother said to Yang Qi: "Miss, everything is done."

Yang Qi said to Song Ri, "Second housekeeper, I'll trouble you to take care of the shop from now on."

Then Song Ri harnessed the carriage again and sent Yang Qi and He's mother back to the mansion.

After returning to the mansion, Yang Qi did not rush back to Linhu Courtyard, but went to Shi'an Courtyard to report today's progress to Xu, expressing his gratitude and thinking that it would definitely be right to say more good things to the second aunt.

Arriving at the study, Yang Qi quickly took out his grandfather's notes. After quickly reading them, Yang Qi's brows knitted tightly. He knew every word in the notes, but what did they all mean? What was Zhongfu? What was Shaoshang?

Yang Qi closed the notebook. If he wanted to understand the notes left by his grandfather, he had to know medical knowledge to understand what he was talking about. He didn't know when his elder brother would take him to Jishi Bookstore. Now he couldn't wait to see the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine and the six volumes of the Complete Works of Zhongjing.

Although I can’t read my notes now, I can read the books I brought from Duke Song’s Mansion.

Yang Qi has now finished reading "Three Character Classic" and "Rules for Being a Good Pupil and Child". In this life, her requirement for herself is to be able to recite and write down a book fluently after reading it.

Yang Qi is currently reading "Youxue Qionglin". As the saying goes: Read "Zengguang" to learn to speak, read "Youlin" to travel the world. "Youxue Qionglin" is divided into four volumes, a total of 32 chapters, integrating similar and related content. The first volume has six chapters, the first three are about astronomy, geography, and seasons, and the last three are about the court, civil officials, and military positions. Although the first chapter is about astronomy, the words "worrying too much is no different from worrying about the sky; not knowing one's own strength is no different from Kuafu chasing the sun." gave Yang Qi a great shock. Worrying too much, isn't this the excessive internal consumption of oneself now?

Now I am afraid every day that I will go back to the old path of my previous life. I am restless and always feel tired every night. But this is just groundless worry. Han Renyuan is only 7 years old now, and I am afraid that he will not be enlightened for long. What I can do now is to learn more and see more, so that I can have more financial resources and trump cards!

The twelve chapters in the second volume are about people, starting from the closest people and further derived. From the direct relatives of grandparents, fathers and sons, brothers, parents, uncles and nephews, from near to far, to teachers and students, friends, guests and hosts, and relatives. And from the closeness of these relationships, interspersed with etiquette and moral knowledge such as marriage, birthdays of the old and the young, and clothes. "A loving mother looks forward to her son, leaning against the door and the gate; a wandering son misses his parents, climbing the hills and the mountains", Yang Qi said softly while looking at the words in the book in front of him. Whether in the past life or this life, he has never seen his biological mother, nor has he felt the love of his father from Zeng Song Hongwen. This sentence is really unfamiliar to him.

Soon it was lunch time, and Mother He called Yang Qi outside the door to have lunch. Yang Qi had already instructed the kitchen that except for special circumstances, the meals of Linhu Courtyard would be taken from the big kitchen, and not cooked in the small kitchen of Linhu Courtyard. Yang Qi's daily portion was now two dishes, one soup, and two side dishes. Today's meal was sweet and sour pork tenderloin, blanched greens, and seaweed egg drop soup, with a glass of milk.

Yang Qi always had a good appetite. She finished all the dishes on the table and had a bowl of rice. After dinner, Yang Qi had the habit of taking a nap. Yang Qi lay on the bed and waited until Mother He left the room before opening her eyes. Yang Qi was used to thinking about her grandfather's affairs every day. She had to ask people in the palace about this matter, but who could she ask? She had no clue. She had no clue about how to clear her grandfather's grievances. Now only the old lady and Xu from the Duke of Song's Mansion could enter the palace, but even they had no ability to get information in the palace.
