Dream Hua Embers Records

"It rained too much tonight. Half a foot of water accumulated in the car, so everyone could only sit in the water. Two sisters were menstruating, and they were not in good health. After spending the night like this, they could only sit in the water. Fearing that we would die in the morning, someone yelled loudly to let those Yuan soldiers let us into the tent to rest for a while. But who knew, once we entered, we would be like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and everyone died...not just the few people in the tent. Personally, they... They were afraid of being punished, so they recruited many people to come over and ruin us together... Saying that the law does not punish the public..."

Yan Yin was silent, she wanted to hold the woman's hand lightly, wanted to comfort her, but found that the finger was covered with wounds and two nails had fallen off, so she withdrew her hand again.

"Listen to me..." The woman was a little anxious, "You have to live well no matter what, stay away from those dog tartars, paint your face black, and don't give them a chance to touch your body. But ...Even if I was ruined by them like me, I still have to live well and keep the clouds open to see the moon, His Royal Highness... His Royal Highness will defeat them and take us back! It's a pity that I can't see it, but You can! You are still young, you can definitely do it!"

Yan Yin was speechless, but nodded with tears in her eyes.

"If you come back to Daliang one day, don't forget to bring a letter to my parents, saying that I married a man in the north, married a Han man, he is very kind, treats me well, and my life is very good. Happy... let the elders not worry."

After hearing this, Yan Yin shed tears and nodded vigorously, "Okay! I will definitely bring it! Where is your home?"

"My home is in Tianshui Lane, Daliang City, the first one in the east of Beikou Road, the biggest fruit shop."

"Ah! I know that store, and I have eaten the candies there." Yan Yin exclaimed.That shop was the shop where he and Puhan had bought candies together, that Zongzi candy, Yan Yin finally ate it...it was very sweet.Sugar is sugar, no matter how much misery it has been tainted in its origin, it will always return pure sweetness to the world.

The woman smiled sweetly, and her face seemed to be glowing faintly, "There is no child in Daliang City who has never eaten my candy. My family is a century-old shop! Even when the first emperor was young, he often sent his personal servants to my house to buy them. Where's the sugar?" The woman said, reaching out her hand to take out a small rosewood plaque from her bun, "There's my name on it...you take it as a token."

Yan Yin took it, and looked closely in front of her eyes, she saw "Xiang Yao Bureau" written on the front, and "Shang Gong Shen Zhi Li" written on the back, which was the woman's name.

"Fragrant Medicine Bureau? Is it the official Gui Xing Cream Fragrance Medicine?" Yan Yin asked.

"That's right, that's mouth incense, as well as incense, incense sticks, incense balls, incense cakes, balm, and all the spices used in the palace are prepared by our Fragrant Medicine Bureau. It also includes hangover soup and fragrant medicine cakes. .”

"Ah!? Then you must know medical skills, right?"

"I can't talk about understanding, but I have to learn. Medical skills and cooking must be learned. Medicine, food, and fragrance are all of the same origin. Moreover, the person who makes the fragrance can't just use the fragrance, medicine, or eat it. Spicy and smelly food, you have to bathe and change clothes every morning and evening..." Shen Zhili was talking with a smile on his face, but when he said this, his face suddenly darkened, "It's a pity that I was so clean all my life, but now I die like this It's filthy."

"Don't say that, you are not filthy at all, the ones who are filthy are those who hurt you." Yan Yin said as she gently smoothed Shen Zhili's messy forehead hair with her hands.

"Thank you..." Shen Zhili smiled slightly.

"Then can you tell me about it? How to make fragrance? How to make fragrant medicine?"

"Okay!" Shen Zhili's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement, and he began to talk endlessly, from the name, source, and quality of the spices, to how to process, select, blend, and then to ambergris, Shen The effects of different fragrances such as nao, Qinghe, Qingfu, etc., the formulas and methods of various fragrant medicines... She was obsessed with what she said, Yan Yin listened intently, and before she knew it, the rain had lightened, and the eastern sky had already revealed a slight twilight.

Suddenly, as he was talking, the low and soft voice stopped abruptly.Yan Yin couldn't believe it, and after a while, she touched Shen Zhili's nose lightly, and found that she was out of breath.

Yan Yin straightened up sadly, only to find that her back was in pain like a knife, her cheeks were hot, her head was dizzy, her feet were sore and numb, and she couldn't walk for a while.

It seemed that she got up violently, Yan Yin only felt the world spinning for a while, and she was about to fall backwards.

Suddenly, a pair of big hands stretched out from nowhere, supported Yan Yin's back, and immediately Yan Yin felt being wrapped in a warm embrace.Yan Yin wanted to see, but he couldn't open his eyes no matter what. The warmth of the embrace made him feel relieved, and he fell asleep in peace.

Yan Yin woke up again, it was already sunny noon, the surrounding birds were chirping, it seemed quiet and empty.

Yan Yin was a little surprised, and gently lifted a corner of the car curtain to look outside, and found that the densely packed tents had disappeared, leaving only a wilderness with desolate spring grass swaying in the wind.

Yan Yin was startled, and sat up suddenly, this time she got up violently, she felt pain in every limb and every bone, as if countless ants were biting in every bone crevice.

Yan Yin bit her lip, trying not to let herself groan, and slowly moved her body, wanting to get out of the car to have a look.

Suddenly, the car curtain was lifted, Dai Zihe leaned half of his body, and scolded, "Stinky boy, you finally woke up! Go back and lie down obediently, and if you dare to move around again, I won't beat you!"

"Ah?! Miracle Doctor Dai!" Yan Yin was both surprised and happy, but found that her voice was so hoarse and unpleasant.

Dai Zihe pulled and pulled, fiddling with Yan Yin to lie down, furrowed his eyebrows and reprimanded, "I was injured and ran into the rain, if I hadn't come in time, you would have died! Do you know ?”

Although Yan Yin doesn't understand medical principles, she also knows that Dai Zihe's words are true, her body is in bone-piercing pain, even when she was whipped and scolded, she didn't feel such unbearable pain, her throat felt like a fire was burning, every breath During the breath, the entire chest cavity seemed to be cut by a blunt knife.Although I have been sick since I was a child, I have never been so ill.

"Thank you..." Yan Yin huddled her shoulders under the quilt, grabbed the quilt head with her two small hands, and said softly, blinking her eyes.

Dai Zihe patted Yan Yin's cheek lightly, and said with a smile, "Thank you? You don't care about your body, and you still have the face to say thank you? If you weren't sick, I really want to beat you up."

"I don't care about my body, it's just...they are so pitiful, I can't watch them go underground naked, if their parents know about it, wouldn't they be so heartbroken? I just want to cover them with satin, You said, is it wrong for me to do this?" Yan Yin looked at Dai Zihe expectantly, hoping to get an agreeable answer from him.

Dai Zihe sighed, "Yes, yes, but your injuries are so serious, and you took painkillers and ran outside in the rain all night, do you think you should hit them? If your parents know, will you Will it hurt?"

Yan Yin shook her head wistfully, "Mother is dead, she won't know..."

Dai Zihe sighed again, this child really hated his father.
