Liu Yuhan transmigrated in an instant, finding herself in a destitute family in an era plagued by scarcity of food. See how Liu Yuhan stays true to her original aspirations and thrives in ancient t...
Many people asked about Chinese herbal face masks, but few bought them. After all, they were not cheap, and most people would not spend the money. However, the wives of several nearby shopkeepers did buy some.
They bought soaps and found them very useful. The soaps left their skin refreshed and lightly scented, and even their husbands loved them even more.
Now that I know An Xiang Fu Yu has released a new face mask, I have to rush out to try one out. The face is one of the most important parts of a woman's body, and taking good care of it is more rewarding than buying new clothes or shoes. Seeing your skin getting better and better, and you becoming more and more youthful and beautiful every day, is such a delight.
After dinner, Liu Yuhan personally taught them how to recognize Arabic numerals. They all knew how to read and write, so they learned very quickly.
Although they thought the number was strange, after listening to the girl's explanation, they felt that it was indeed very convenient to learn and use it quickly and easily, just like using the character "1" instead of "壹". Doesn't it save a lot of effort and space?
Furthermore, these so-called Arabic numerals are very convenient for recording even-numbered numbers. For example, wouldn't it save a lot of effort to write "58" instead of "五拾捌"? And wouldn't it also be more confidential if the account was kept in a way that no one else could read it?
The students studied very hard and mastered the ten Arabic numerals in no time.
Before going to bed, Liu Yuhan also reminded them not to forget to apply the Chinese herbal mask. Girls always love beauty, and they were very happy to apply the mask, and their faces felt so smooth after using it.
The girl was really generous and gave them these two-ounce bottles of Chinese herbal facial masks so generously.
There was also soap and perfumed soap for them to use. We tried our best to provide them with food, shelter and clothing.
The girl is so outstanding that because of these calligraphy and paintings, the store is very busy during the day. Many people come here to admire the calligraphy and paintings, as if the entire Changle County has been slightly shocked.
Even so, the girl was neither arrogant nor impatient. She would tell them or ask them before making any decision. Her respect for them made them feel warm.
They had never seen such a master before. How could they have such a good reputation? Where could they find such a good girl?
They all decided in their hearts that they would serve the girl well.
Before going to bed, Bai Zhi specifically told them that this was the girl's teaching method. If the girl didn't tell them, they couldn't say anything and couldn't tell anyone else, including other things about the girl. If the girl wanted to hide something, no one should tell anyone, just cooperate.
Several people nodded in agreement. They had been together for several days and had tacitly agreed to take Bai Zhi as their leader. Bai Zhi was older than them and had worked as a first-class maid for the general's wife in the Huo Mansion. She spoke and acted in a very steady manner. The girl seemed to value her very much, so they were naturally willing to listen to her.
Liu Yuhan wrote down the herbs needed to treat heatstroke and colds. She would buy them and make medicine tomorrow. She would prepare these two herbs first.
Summer is coming, and it is necessary to get some herbs to relieve the heat. For herbs to relieve the heat, get Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills.
The main ingredients of Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills are Patchouli, Poria, Citrus grandiflora peel, Perilla leaf, Angelica dahurica, Tangerine peel, Platycodon grandiflorum, Atractylodes macrocephala, Magnolia officinalis (roasted with ginger), Raw Pinellia, Licorice, etc.
Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills can relieve heat and dampness, and are often used to treat fever, chest tightness, abdominal distension, vomiting, and diarrhea caused by exogenous heat and dampness. They can also soothe the stomach and stop vomiting, and are often used to treat nausea and vomiting caused by excessive dampness and turbidity. They also have aromatic properties that clear turbidity, and are commonly used to treat symptoms such as loss of appetite, thick and greasy tongue coating, and diarrhea caused by spleen dampness and stomach turbidity.
The main ingredients of Shanghan Pills are ephedra, cinnamon twig, saposhnikovia divaricata, angelica dahurica, schizonepeta tenuifolia, and notopterygium wilfordii.
The efficacy and function of Shanghan Pills are to dispel wind and heat, and to relieve symptoms of wind-cold. For example, fever, nasal congestion, and body aches caused by wind-cold can be treated.
Liu Yuhan bought all the medicinal herbs, carried them in a backpack, put them in a space when he reached a deserted place, and went to several large pharmacies.
After buying the medicinal herbs, I went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and rented a ox cart to go back.
It is twenty miles from Changle County to Fulai Village. If several people take a ride to Yukou Town, each person will be charged three cents, and if you charter a car, it will cost twenty cents.
Liu Yuhan gave the driver twenty cents and took the rickshaw directly back to Fulai Village. They arrived in less than half an hour.
It is still more convenient to have a horse. It only takes a quarter of an hour to get there by riding a fast horse. Liu Yuhan was almost shaken to sleep in the ox cart.
It was already mid-afternoon when I got home. My mother and I took the herbs to the pharmaceutical workshop, which was right next to where the facial masks were made.
A lot of the medicinal materials for making the mask have been ground, so you can stop and make the medicine first. First, make the pills specifically for these two formulas, and grind the required medicinal materials first.
To make pills, you must grind the powder, refine the honey, mix the medicine, and then make the pills. None of these steps can be skipped.
The medicine prepared according to the formula is baked over a low fire or dried in the sun, then ground into fine powder for later use.
The next step is to prepare the honey. To prepare the honey, you need to mix the powder with honey at a ratio of 1:1.2-1.5 (e.g., for 1000g of powder, you need 1200-1500g of honey. If the powder contains more sugar, gelatin or starch, you can use a ratio of 1:1-1.2).
The next step after preparing honey is to refine the honey. Refining the honey is to remove impurities, destroy enzymes, kill bacteria, evaporate water and increase viscosity.
When refining honey, first boil it over high heat, then simmer over low heat. At the same time, place a bowl of cold water next to it and pay attention to the color of the honey. When you find that the honey is yellow and foamy, use a bamboo chopstick to dip a drop of honey in it, then move the bamboo chopstick over the bowl of cold water and let the honey drip into the water. If the honey does not disperse in the water but sinks to the bottom (that is, "water drops form beads"), the honey is considered to be refined.
If the honey is not refined to the right temperature, it cannot be made into pills. Of course, over-refining it is not good either, so you must control the temperature.
