"Time to eat, time to eat. Wash your hands. I smell beef," Empress Wang said as she sniffed.
"Sister-in-law, you're really amazing. When the people from Zhuangzi went to Chang 'an to recruit workers, they saw beef in the East Market and brought it back without waiting for others to buy it."
Li Yi gave her a thumbs up.
Beef could be seen every day in the East Market. There were always cows that died from natural and man-made accidents.
Sick cows were rare. There were many rich people in the East Market. If they ate sick cows, they would be infected and the beef dealers would not be able to handle it.
All the beef that could be sold in Chang 'an was delivered by the dealers.
Donkey meat was worse than beef. Donkey meat was not restricted by the government.
Therefore, many people ate donkey meat in the middle class. That was why there was a saying that there was dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground.
After that, there was mutton, followed by pork.
The worst meat was not chicken or duck, but dog meat.
People with a little status would not touch dog meat if it was not for medicine.
That was why there was a saying that dog meat could not be served.
Li Yi did not like dog meat either. He disliked dog meat because it was disgusting. In the past, he had eaten dog meat pot a few times and dipped it in dog sauce.
Later, he felt that the taste was not good, and it was indeed not good.
Many people in his time ate dog meat to strengthen their sex drive. They did not understand science. Mutton was actually stronger than dog meat.
Li Yi was not at ease when he bought the beef today, so he tested it.
"There are no potatoes and tomatoes. Beef brisket stewed with tomatoes, beef with potatoes," Li Yi mumbled and went to wash his hands.
Pei Yaoqing also went to wash his hands. He had a habit of not washing his hands before eating.
"Brother Yi, did you send beef to Zhuya Jinshan?" Li Longji had been paying attention to the old leader of the Shatuo Clan.
"He doesn't lack beef. I asked someone to send him turtle soup. I felt that his body was good, so I used the distilled wine that was soaked in ginseng to make the turtle blood.
Although it was only soaked for three months, I cut the ginseng into pieces and attacked it again. Drinking alcohol has a greater impact on the lungs.
According to Western medicine, we should not give alcohol. But for National Healers like us, we have to act at the right time.
I'm using penicillin, not cephalosporin. Drink a cup of turtle's blood wine, and you'll either recover quickly or I'll give you emergency treatment. "
Li Yi mixed the Chinese and Western theories together and controlled the intensity.
Li Longji knows Western medicine, but Brother Yi has so many magical tools and different medicines. Otherwise, how can he inject water into people's blood vessels?
Brother Yi called this method western medicine, and then the original method was called traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, and Chinese medicine.
Brother Yi is skilled in both medicine and medicine, so he can use them as he pleases.
Sometimes he would write prescriptions for people, and sometimes he would perform acupuncture.
Some of the children couldn't bear to prick it, so they stuck something on their forehead.
Pei Yaoqing listened from the side and pretended not to understand. In fact, there were some things that he really didn't understand.
He didn't understand Western medicine, nor did he understand Chinese medicine.
He put coriander in the dipping bowl he had prepared for himself. There were plates, bowls, and cups for dipping.
Only at Zhuangzi's place did they divide it so thinly. Otherwise, the average person would have a big bowl, and the rich people would have a plate.
The dipping bowl was used when eating crabs, and ordinary rich people didn't prepare it.
"Li Dongzhu, why don't you sell the ceramics in your village?" Pei Yaoqing picked up a piece of radish from the beef and radish pot on the table and asked.
He felt quite comfortable. It was only at Zhuangzi that he could eat from the same pot with Her Majesty.
Otherwise, even if he could attend Her Majesty's banquet, he would have to eat separately. Each person would have a small table and sit at the side to eat.
"The children always accidentally break it. If I sell it, it will have a price. The children will be beaten for a lot of money if they break it.
I don't sell it. Zhuangzi uses it himself. It's not difficult to bake it. I have the craftsmanship, so it doesn't matter if it breaks.
Another reason is that the ceramics in the village are poorly baked. If I sell it at a high price, no one will buy it. If I sell it at a low price, how can the people in other kilns survive? "
Li Yi said the reasons. First, the children play with it. It's okay, I don't sell it. It's not worth much.
The second reason was that he didn't want to break into the low-grade ceramics market, especially pottery. It wasn't easy for others to bake it once.
Pei Yaoqing heard this and instantly felt ashamed. Previously, he had wanted to get skills from Li Yi.
"I love eating oxtail the most," Empress Wang said happily.
She had a small clay pot of her own. Inside was oxtail and tendons. There was no coriander, spring onions, or ginger, but there was black bean.
At dinner, Li Yi was worried that his sister-in-law would get bloated from eating radish. He didn't put in spicy ingredients because he was afraid it would irritate the gastrointestinal tract.
This kind of care had reached the extreme. That was why Li Longji always wanted to bring the "first wife" over.
What this dish could supplement, how it tasted, how it affected the body after eating it, and how much it ate, he was responsible for all of it.
So the staple food for Empress Wang was rice flatbread. It tasted like a cake, easier to digest than rice, and less likely to increase stomach acid than pasta.
Pei Yaoqing also knew that the empress was pregnant. He wasn't stupid, but he didn't dare to spread a word.
If word got out, it would be the destruction of the family. He knew!
"Sister-in-law doesn't eat much. If you're hungry in the middle of the night, eat a few pieces of jelly. It's easy to digest and can replenish collagen. At the same time, it will help the body increase water content."
Li Yi still focused on Empress Wang. Whether the collagen could be absorbed depended on whether the body needed it or not.
If it didn't need it, it wouldn't be absorbed no matter how much it was eaten. If it needed it, it would be broken down and combined according to its own needs.
"Dongzhu, I, I have a white spot next to my right big tooth." Qing Song gathered his courage and asked. It hurt.
"Your mouth has an ulcer. Go apply the watermelon frost. I won't give you vitamin B2. The effect is too slow. I'll give you a piece. Roll it into powder and pour it in."
Li Yi went over and used a pair of chopsticks to pry open the mouth of Qing Song, who had just changed shifts, and said.
Actually, under normal circumstances, if the class stayed in the manor and ate and drank well, the ulcer would be gone.
But Li Yi refused. I'm a miracle doctor who crushed the doctors of the Tang dynasty. What's the big deal if I can cure a mouth ulcer in 10 days?
Oh, it's less than 10 days. It came yesterday. Even 9 days won't do.
There's so much watermelon frost. Big Brother sent a lot of watermelon rind and mirabilite.
Li Yi knew that there was vitamin B2 in his watermelon frost spray. It was a combination of Chinese and Western medicine. It was just under the guise of Chinese medicine.
How fast was the treatment of a normal mouth ulcer? After spraying it that night, it didn't hurt the next morning. The next night, it would forget about the sore mouth. It was fine.
It was like adding acetaminophen to some daqing leaves and yinqiao tablets.
It was using daqing leaves and yinqiao powder to replace caffeine, chlorpheniramine maleate, artificial bezoar, and Western medicine with acetaminophen to support the treatment.
Sometimes, ordinary people would boil cola with ginger foam to treat a cold. They felt that it was a good folk prescription.
In fact, cola had caffeine, sugar, and carbonation. Once it was boiled, the carbonation would be boiled out, leaving behind sugar, caffeine, and ginger.
Isn't this just ginger sugar water? It just has a little more caffeine.
The effect of boiling red bull was actually better. There were more vitamins and bezoar acid in it.
Qing Song nodded vigorously. The ulcer in his mouth didn't seem to hurt anymore. He had been in pain for six days.
With his identity, he could find the people from the Imperial Medical Department.
They prescribed borax powder for him. It was painful to spray a little powder. There were white pustules around his mouth.
"Dongzhu, I know there are white pustules. Can I rub them out myself?" Qing Song decided to be cruel to himself. It was so painful to rub them out.
"Come with me after dinner. I'll treat it for you. Now, you still have to eat. It's painful again. Bear with it.
I can actually stop the pain now and give you anesthetics. But I'm a quack. If you're anesthetized now, it will affect your recovery later.
Don't eat the salted onions. Go and get some noodles. Wait for me after you finish eating. It's not a serious illness. "
Li Yi didn't want to treat him immediately. It was just an ulcer. After eating the noodles and rinsing his mouth, it wouldn't hurt anymore.
Qing Song looked at He Yan.
"Go. We'll help you finish your food. We really owe you." Cui Liu spoke first.
"I mean the same." He Yan tried to explain.
"He Yan, don't feel guilty. I understand." Qing Song patted He Yan's shoulder. He turned around to get some noodles.
"Hahahaha ~ ~ ~" Empress Wang couldn't help but laugh.
Li Longji also smiled. At the same time, he felt relieved.
These four classes of palace maids and eunuchs were so interesting.
Cui Liu purposely spoke first. He Yan gloomily explained. Qing Song knew that everyone was good to him, but he still made things difficult for He Yan.
What did he mean by don't feel guilty?
Pei Yaoqing was envious. What happened to the palace fight? Why was it so fun? Was everyone so happy?
