Li Zhongfu used a fountain pen for Zhu Heming, so the words he wrote were naturally very small.

After she had enough fun, Li Zhongfu read out the information he had found: "The first step in making glass is the pre-processing of raw materials.

Crush the blocky raw materials (quartz sand, soda ash, limestone, feldspar, etc.) to dry the wet raw materials..."

After reading the whole thing, not to mention Zhu Heming, even Li Zhongfu was confused.

"Doctor Li, can this process really be used in the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Heming asked ignorantly.

Li Zhongfu shook his head: "Every profession has its own specialty. You can ask your brother to ask a professional to take a look."

"Okay."

Looking at the little girl shaking her right hand that hurt from writing, Li Zhongfu said: "It gets dark early in winter, so let's eat dinner early. Come on, let's go get the ingredients."

"Okay." Zhu Heming then remembered that Li Zhongfu asked her to ask Empress Ma and Chang what they wanted to eat: "Mother, sister-in-law, do you want to eat anything?"

Empress Ma said: "Doctor Li asked Yiping to take away cowpeas before, right? This dish will do."

Li Zhongfu nodded: "There are a lot of cowpeas, tender, old, and soaked."

As a pregnant woman, Chang's taste is much more picky: "Do you have shepherd's purse? I want to eat shepherd's purse dumplings."

Shepherd's purse is a kind of wild vegetable, also called ground vegetable.

It is also a medicinal ingredient. There is a saying among the people that "March 3, boil eggs with ground vegetables."

The specific effects are diuresis, laxative, hemostasis, heat-clearing, eye-brightening, and digestion, which are suitable for Chang's symptoms.

But since it is a wild vegetable, naturally few people grow it on purpose.

Queen Ma said: "Daughter-in-law, I will make shepherd's purse dumplings for you in person after the beginning of spring next year."

Li Zhongfu smiled and said: "No, I have shepherd's purse here."

Chang: o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o

Queen Ma turned and said: "Then Heming, after you prepare the stuffing, bring it to the clinic, and I will make dumplings with you."

Zhu Heming nodded: "I know, mother."

Li Zhongfu didn't want to reveal the secret of the cupboard, so he said to Zhu Heming: "Go get some water, let your sister-in-law drink the Sisheng Pills, and come to the kitchen later."

"Okay."

When Zhu Heming came to the kitchen, Li Zhongfu had already prepared all the ingredients.

Looking at the fresh and tender red amaranth, radix arborescens, cowpea and shepherd's purse, Zhu Heming opened his beautiful little mouth slightly: "It's incredible."

Li Zhongfu smiled and didn't explain much: "Is it okay for you to do these by yourself?"

"No problem."

"Then you are busy, I'll go to the front."

"Okay."

Back to the clinic, Li Zhongfu took some bupleurum, angelica, white peony, stir-fried atractylodes, Poria, mint, ginger, honey licorice from the medicine cabinet in turn, and ground them into powder with a Chinese medicine grinder.

Take down the dustpan hanging on the wall, fill the spray bottle with water, and Li Zhongfu starts to shake the water pills.

Water pills are a type of pills in traditional Chinese medicine.

The so-called water pills are pills with water as a binder.

Water pills are generally not big, or like sand, or like mung beans.

The steps to make water pills are simple, but very challenging.

The first step is to spray some water on the dustpan, then sprinkle the powder and shake it gently.

The powder sticks to the water and gathers under the centrifugal force to form round particles.

The size of the pill depends on how many times the water is sprayed and the powder is sprinkled.

Li Zhongfu has been doing this work since he was very young and is quite familiar with it.

When he was studying at the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, even his teacher had asked him for advice on this.

As Li Zhongfu kept shaking, there was no trace of water in the dustpan.

All the powder condensed into Xiaoyao pills the size of mouse droppings.

He took out a gourd from the medicine cabinet, poured all the pills into it, and handed it to Queen Ma.

Li Zhongfu instructed: "This is Xiaoyao Pills. Patients should take it once in the morning and evening after meals. Eight pills each time is enough."

Empress Ma said: "I remember. Thank you, doctor."

At this time, Zhu Heming had already prepared the dumpling fillings and the dough, and brought them over on a tray: "Mother, you can make dumplings."

Empress Ma nodded: "Okay, you roll the dumplings and I'll wrap them."

"Yes."

"Daughter-in-law, you have been away for a while, go back to bed." Empress Ma said to Chang again.

Chang did feel a little tired: "Okay, mother."

Lying down on the bed, Chang thought of the unfinished "Journey to the West", so she started reading it again.

Empress Ma and Zhu Heming were attracted by the program on TV at the first time, and their hands stopped moving.

Li Zhongfu, who was reading a book behind the medicine cabinet, lowered the height of the book slightly, revealing his two eyes.

Looking at the mother and daughter, Li Zhongfu smiled, and did not remind them, and continued to read.

Anyway, it's still early, let them go.

The result is... the whole episode of Journey to the West is over,Empress Ma and Zhu Heming only made three dumplings in total.

But they liked the ending song and content after the episode was over, and they watched it intently.

Chang was used to it, and took the time to look at them: "Mother, third sister, the noodles are almost dry."

Empress Ma and Zhu Heming blushed and hurried to make dumplings.

However, when the new episode started, they couldn't help but watch it again.

This time they didn't forget that they were making dumplings, and they would occasionally take a peek, but most of the time they just listened with their ears.

After making the dumplings, Zhu Heming went to the kitchen to make three more dishes.

Cowpea and egg puffs.

Stir-fried bean curd sheets with red amaranth.

Cold bean curd.

Another staple food was instant noodles.

But Li Zhongfu only let her make three buckets of instant noodles.

He really didn't like eating this stuff.

When I was interning in the hospital, I was busy day and night, and instant noodles became my main food. I almost vomited.

It is not appropriate to use a rice plate for four people to eat.

Li Zhongfu took out the small table that his grandfather often used when he was alive.

This table is a folding type with two sides.

One side is the tabletop and the other side is the chessboard.

The food was placed on the table, and the four people sat on one side.

Taking a full bowl of dumplings from Zhu Heming, Li Zhongfu picked up one and tasted it: "Wow, little girl, your cooking skills are not bad."

Zhu Heming blushed: "It's mainly because you have a lot of seasonings here."

Li Zhongfu was amused by her appearance.

The ancients were precocious.

If it were in modern times, this child would at best be in junior high school, and it would be amazing to be able to go to and from school by herself.

But she can already go to the hall and the kitchen.

Chang couldn't wait to eat a dumpling: "It smells so good, dumplings must be stuffed with shepherd's purse."

Zhu Heming smiled: "If sister-in-law likes it, I will make it for you in the future."

"Okay, thank you, third sister."

After eating two dumplings in a row, Chang put down the bowl and picked up the instant noodle bucket.

Intoxicated by the aroma of instant noodles, Chang felt that he couldn't stop drooling: "It smells so good."

Chang took a mouthful of noodles.

With a light bite, the taste was QQ and bouncy, and the aroma was overflowing, rich and complex.

It was more than a hundred times better than the imperial meal!

Chang: o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
