Qingyao has been studying medicine for almost five years, but she is not a doctor in the traditional sense; rather, she is more of a pharmacist.
There are no such talents in this era yet.
Jiang Yue felt a little proud. Her daughter had excellent comprehension, patience, and resilience, and had finally achieved some success, integrating and condensing the herbal decoction into powder, pills, and medicinal powder.
"Come on, Yao Yao, eat more ribs to nourish your body. No matter how hard you study, you still need to take care of your health."
"Thank you, Mother~"
"Woof woof woof~"
Xiao Bai, oh no, now you could say he's old Bai. Based on Xiao Bai's bone age, he's equivalent to a person in their thirties.
Old Bai has worked hard and made great contributions; his meals are as good as ever.
But it doesn't like gnawing on tasteless bones; it prefers the taste of food fed to it by its owner and its little master—that's what makes it delicious.
"Miss, Xiaobai's fur has been falling out a lot lately, please be careful."
As Xia Hua reported this, she took a cloth dampened with warm water and carefully wiped Xiao Bai's fur.
"It's alright, I'll go back to my room later and make it some pills. I guarantee it will reduce the shedding."
Qingyao picked out a piece of pork rib from the lotus root and pork rib soup and fed it to Xiaobai.
Her mother had taught her that she should not feed Xiaobai food that was too oily or salty.
This lotus root and pork rib soup is quite bland, is it alright?
Not hearing her mother scold her, she fed the animals even more diligently.
"Mom, I want to eat lotus root slices~"
Wenwan likes to eat vegetarian food, so she stared at the soup bowl on the table. The lotus root slices in it were so crisp and delicious.
Okay~
Since Daxue didn't have to do it herself, Chunhua helped scoop it up, greatly reducing her burden.
Jiang Yue noticed that her daughter and daughter-in-law's clothes were yellowed and old, and instructed them:
"It's already hot now, and there's heavy snow. Tomorrow, you and Qingshan should go to town to pick out some breathable cotton fabric. Pick out a lot, since there are many people in the family, and we need it for making clothes."
"Okay, I'll listen to Mom."
The heavy snow has arrived; it's time to make new clothes!
"I'll have Aunt Ge get some money from the public fund for you later. Don't be stingy, buy what you need, buy as much as you want."
Jiang Yue had almost finished eating. She squeezed her grandson's little hand, gave him some instructions, and then got up to walk around to digest her food. She planned to take a short nap later, as she had classes in the afternoon.
"Giggle~"
Little Tangyuan drooled and peed at the same time, soaking his mother's skirt.
Jiang Yue: Good grandson, you know how to care for your grandma, but you don't know how to care for your mother~
Heavy Snow: Now you know why she bought fabric to make dresses, right?
After lunch, Xiaoxue came over carrying a basket of fresh lotus flowers and lotus pods.
She came to visit her nephew and also to discuss things with her best friend.
"Go on, Yao Yao's inside. You two do your thing~"
As the eldest sister, Daxue was a little jealous.
The girl and her sister-in-law are even closer than she is to her!
"Hmm~"
Xiaoxue, unaware that her sister was jealous, kissed her nephew's cheek and then gently rubbed her niece's cheek before happily going to find her best friend.
"Grandma, these lotus flowers are so fresh. How about I make you some lotus flower pastries later?"
Chunhua noticed the old lady's sorrow and quickly changed the subject.
"Lotus flower pastry? That sounds delicious, thank you."
Da Xue felt much better; the girl still cared about her, knowing to bring her something delicious.
Wenwan was picking lotus pods, and after tasting them, she found they were bitter!
"Pfft~"
"Mom, this stuff Auntie brought doesn't taste good."
"Fool, of course it'll be bitter if you eat the skin. It needs to be peeled open. The lotus seed core is bitter and can't be eaten."
Da Xue handed her son to Chunhua to hold, while she wiped the stains on her skirt with a handkerchief. Sigh, she had both a son and a daughter, but neither of them was easy to take care of.
Only when you raise a child do you realize the kindness of your parents. She thought of her own mother and the hardships her mother-in-law had endured over the years, and her heart ached.
"How about Mom takes you to Grandma's house for a while later?"
"Okay, I want to eat the malt candy that Grandma makes."
"Your teeth are only just getting better, and you already want something sweet? If your grandma hadn't been brushing your teeth with salt, you would have already..."
Da Xue disapproved of educating her daughter, saying that she was spending money recklessly!
Salt is so expensive, only a grandmother would be willing to let her granddaughter use it like this!
"Mom, I'll just lick it once, just one lick at a time~"
"No way~"
"My dear mother, how can you bear to let your daughter not be able to eat?"
"Ouch~"
"Mom, why are you touching my belly?"
"Didn't you eat enough just now?"
......
The villagers, more or less, all have the habit of taking a midday nap.
At the hour of Wei (1-3 PM), the bell rang, and the students sat up straight. Those who were observing the class were arranged at the back of the classroom to listen attentively.
Prefect Zhao felt the same way; he wanted to hear what kind of miscellaneous knowledge the county magistrate was imparting...
"Stand up!"
Hello, teacher!
"Hello, everyone!"
"Sit down~"
Have you memorized the multiplication tables?
"I've finished reciting the teacher's name!"
"Great! When you grow up, you'll understand the wonderful uses of this rhyme!"
"So, teacher, what are we going to learn today?"
"Today, we're going to learn about the lever principle."
Jiang Yue smiled mysteriously, then called two students to move two long benches from the cafeteria into the classroom.
One stool is placed at the bottom, and another stool is overturned and placed upright in the center. A very simple tangram puzzle is thus completed.
Everyone in the classroom was completely baffled and didn't understand what the lever principle was.
Even the learned and talented Lord Zhao was completely bewildered.
The county magistrate's explanation thereafter gradually led him from confusion to even greater confusion.
What is force?
What does leverage balance mean?
What are driving force and resistance?
For the first time, he had a sense of déjà vu, feeling that he was ignorant and knew nothing.
Why are students divided into primary and secondary schools, high schools, universities, etc.?
Because each age group has different levels of intellectual development and comprehension.
The older teachers, along with some observers, were completely bewildered and only had a vague understanding.
Most of the students in the classroom were very interested in the new knowledge and grasped it much faster.
Some people have already started to extrapolate from this example, suggesting that adding certain devices could create a support point, and then...
Yes, that's right!
Pulley mechanism!
If you have a good grasp of mechanics and the right equipment, even a little girl can pull the weight of an adult!
To put it in simpler terms, it means using minimal force to pull a weight that is a certain multiple of its original value!
"Teacher, we'd like to try making a pulley system. Could you guide us?"
"That's natural. Interested students can combine work and rest, forming groups of eight to ten during their free time to conduct in-depth research. They can ask each other questions together in class the following Friday if they don't understand something."
Jiang Yue nodded. It was Zhang Chao who spoke; she remembered this student!
She did well in Chinese classics, and her other subjects were also quite outstanding.
"Thank you, teacher!"
The male students were most interested in this kind of thing, and their eyes seemed to sparkle as they discussed it enthusiastically.
Upon seeing this, Prefect Zhao couldn't help but hesitate. What if he hadn't been promoted...?
