Chapter 51 Prescription



Grandma He came out of the kitchen carrying some dishes. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "This wine not only smells good, it tastes great too!"

"Then I'll try it later." Li Mo said.

After saying that, he went to the cabinet in the main room and took out the cup.

After all the food was served, Li Mo poured a glass of white wine and praised it after taking a sip: "Good wine."

"That's right, this wine is brewed by our family, and we use the grains we grow ourselves." Chen Chen said with a little pride.

Upon hearing this, Li Mo smiled and praised, "Brother-in-law's family is amazing." Then he asked jokingly, "Can you give me a few more bottles of wine in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhen shook his head and said, "I can give you a few more bottles of fruit wine, but not white wine."

"Okay then, fruit wine is fine too." Li Mo said regretfully. It's better to have something than nothing, and he doesn't have to spend any money.

After finishing the meal, Chen Chen drove the carriage back to the town. This time, he stayed in the town until He Jinshu went on vacation. Then the two of them returned to the village with Doctor Xue.

Because He Jinshu had already greeted Grandpa He before, Grandpa He was not surprised when he saw Dr. Xue coming, and he calmly accepted the treatment given by Dr. Xue.

Li Mo was a little confused about this situation. He had found a doctor to treat Grandpa He before, but there was no hope. Why did he come for treatment again now?

So he asked He Jinshu, "Xiaoshu, why did you ask the doctor to come and treat Grandpa again? Is there any hope of a cure?"

"I got an ancient recipe before, which said there was hope of treatment, so I asked the doctor to try it," said He Jinshu.

Li Mo nodded when he heard this, and did not ask where he got the ancient recipe. Since the little book said there was hope, it might not be a bad idea for them to give it a try.

After Doctor Xue gave Grandpa He an acupuncture treatment, He Jinshu asked Li Mo to drive Doctor Xue back to the town.

After the family had dinner in the evening, He Jinshu asked Chen Chen to boil a pot of tea and add some sedatives to it. This medicine is not harmful to the human body, it will just make people sleep more deeply, but it will not make people comatose. People will become more energetic after waking up the next day.

Chen Zhen didn't want others to know his secret, so He Jinshu came up with this idea that would not harm his grandparents and would help his grandfather with his treatment.

After drinking, Grandpa He and the others returned to their room. He Jinshu and Shen Zhen also returned to their room temporarily. After a while, they went to Grandpa He's room.

Grandpa He and Grandma He had already fallen asleep. Seeing this, He Jinshu rolled up Grandpa He's trouser legs and whispered to Chen Chen, "I'll stand at the door and help watch over you. You go get treatment."

Chen Chen also whispered, "Okay, Ah Shu."

After that, he stood in front of the bed and began to treat Grandpa He's two legs. It took about a cup of tea to treat each leg, which was about the time of an incense stick in total.

While he was sleeping, Grandpa He vaguely felt a warmth coming from his knees, like a pot of charcoal fire lit in the cold winter, making his legs feel warm and comfortable.

But he was sleeping too deeply, and even though he was slightly conscious, he did not wake up in the end.

After the treatment was completed, Chen Chen walked over to He Jinshu who was standing at the door, and said to him, "Ah Shu, I didn't treat Grandpa that much. According to this progress, it will take about 15 times to cure Grandpa."

"Okay, then let's treat him according to this schedule. From now on, have Doctor Xue come over for treatment every three days. You can treat grandpa every five days now. When the busy farming season comes, you can treat grandpa every three days." He Jinshu whispered to him.

"Okay." Chen Chen nodded.

After that, the two of them closed the door for Grandpa He and the others, and then tiptoed back to their room.

After returning to the room, Chen Chen said to He Jinshu, "It feels like we are thieves."

He Jinshu said, "Do you want to let grandpa and grandma know about this?"

Chen Zhen thought for a moment and said, "Let's not let them know for now. It could be dangerous if they find out."

He Jinshu nodded and said, "Then continue with the treatment this way. I will be by your side when the time comes."

"Okay." Chen Chen said happily.

After chatting for a while, the two went back to the library to study.

Now He Jinshu has learned all the pinyin, but he still can't remember some of them very well and needs to consolidate them.

After he finishes learning pinyin, Chen Zhen will teach him to recognize the words in the dictionary.

While reading a book about food, Chen Zhen discussed with He Jinshu, "Ah Shu, this book contains many methods for making seasonings. Do you think we should take one out and let the people in your village make it?"

"Why do you have this idea?" asked He Jinshu.

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhen said, "Don't you scholars value reputation? Then I will provide this recipe to your villagers. When their living standards improve, it will definitely earn you a good reputation, which will be of great benefit to you in the future."

I have a lot of seasoning recipes, and we can't make them all by ourselves. We wouldn't be able to manage them all, so why not give one to someone in your village to make? What do you think?"

He Jinshu pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then asked, "What kind of seasoning is it made of?"

"Soy sauce, aged vinegar, and some other seasonings." Chen Chen replied.

After saying that, Chen Chen continued, "Actually, I also know a way to make canned fruit. That can also be made and sold. It's just that I didn't have a good impression of the people in your village before, so I didn't make it for them."

Linshe County is located in the southernmost part of Dongli State, and the lowest temperature throughout the year is around 8 degrees Celsius.

Therefore, many tropical and subtropical fruits grow here, but in this age that focuses on satiety, few people care about these fruits, and no one grows them on a large scale.

The fruits used in Shenjia Village’s fruit wine are all grown on their own land, and then brewed into wine and sold.

Moreover, transportation was difficult in ancient times. Even if you had fruits, it would be difficult to sell them outside because the fruits had a short shelf life. In the end, you could only produce and sell them yourself.

But it’s different if it’s canned fruit. As long as it’s sealed properly, the canned fruit can be preserved for a long time, so they can make these fruits into canned fruit and sell them to different places continuously.
