Chapter 167: Honey Water
The Xian King looked at Xu Qing, then at Xiao Ruxue, and thought about it again. It seems that he really has no ability to make money... Not only is he unable to make money, but it is difficult to simply do it without losing money...
Thinking of this, King Xian let go of the suspicion in his heart.
After King Xian went next door to drink a pot of wine and left on his own, Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Do you really have a way to make money?"
Xu Qing sat on the chair and said: "There is no certainty in doing business. Maybe it will make a lot of money, or it may continue to lose money, who knows. But the loss is covered by the prince's businessman, so I can do it freely." , don’t be afraid of losing money.”
...
In the evening, Su Qian came to take Xu Qing home as usual. Although Xu Sima had completely collapsed and Xu Sima's mansion was even sealed up, Su Qian still sent Xu Qing to the shop every day. Qian came again to pick Xu Qing back.
on the way back
Su Qian walked beside Xu Qing, and Xu Qing was holding the lantern. Su Qian suddenly felt a little itchy throat, and coughed twice involuntarily.
Xu Qing turned her head to look at Su Qian, and asked with concern, "Miss is sick?"
Su Qian shook her head and said, "No, it's just that my throat feels a little uncomfortable. Maybe I didn't sleep well yesterday."
After that, Su Qian coughed twice again.
Xu Qing looked at the medical clinic with the lights still on on the left, and said, "This can't be careless, we'd better go to the medical clinic and let the doctor take a look, and then take some medicines, otherwise it will be bad if it gets serious." .”
When Su Qian heard about taking medicine, she quickly shook her head and said, "There is really no problem. I am a martial arts practitioner, and I will recover soon, so I don't need to take medicine."
Xu Qing looked at Su Qian who had a tough attitude. Su Qian was a little embarrassed by Xu Qing's gaze, and a layer of pink appeared on her face.
Su Qian walked a few steps and then turned her head to look back to see if Xu Qing followed.
Just when Su Qian turned her head back, there was no sign of Xu Qing on the originally dimly lit street.
There was a little panic in Su Qian's eyes, and she walked back quickly and looked around until she saw Xu Qing standing in front of the counter in the medical hall beside her.
Su Qian looked at Xu Qing in the medical hall and frowned. Does he really want to let himself take that bitter concoction?
In just a short while, Xu Qing had already walked out of the medical hall, but there was a small pot in his hand, a clay pot, very small, only the size of three fists.
Su Qian looked at the pottery pot in Xu Qing's hand, and said with dodge eyes, "I...don't want to take medicine, the medicine is very bitter..."
After finishing speaking, Su Qian lowered her head involuntarily. She is really afraid of hard things, especially medicine. She has been afraid since she was a child...
Xu Qing just thought it was funny for a while, why are women so afraid of taking medicine, Su Qian is, and so is Xiao Ruxue, that little girl.
On weekdays, he looks like he is not afraid of anything, but he just can't get over the hurdle of taking medicine.
Xu Qing walked to Su Qian's side and lifted the small jar in his hand, "Don't worry, it's not medicine, it's honey, sweet."
Su Qian raised her head after hearing Tian's words, looked at the small jar with her eyes, moved her little nose, and indeed smelled a sweet smell, Su Qian finally felt relieved.
Su Qian covered her mouth and coughed lightly, then looked at Xu Qing and asked with some doubts, "What does your husband buy honey for?"
Xu Qing said: "Honey can moisten dryness and reduce phlegm. It is a good medicine for treating cough blindly. This medicine is sweet, and ladies should like it." When Xu Qing talked about taking medicine just now, Su Qian and Judging from Xiao Ruxue's identical reaction, Xu Qing could guess that Su Qian must be very afraid of taking bitter medicines, so Xu Qing bought honey from the medical clinic on purpose.
I still remember that when Xu Qing coughed in his previous life, Xu Qing's father would make honey water for him to relieve his cough. He really drank this stuff a lot.
Who doesn't want to drink sweet medicine? Only fools who can drink sweet medicine can drink bitter medicine!
Su Qian looked at Xu Qing in surprise and said, "Honey can also cure cough?"
"Of course."
"How did you know?"
"My father is a doctor. When I coughed when I was young, he often fed me honey water."
Su Qian looked at Xu Qing in a daze: "Isn't your father a head catcher?"
There was a little embarrassment on Xu Qing's face... she slipped her tongue... she told the things of her previous life...
Xu Qing coughed and found a reason: "Actually, he has read one or two medical books and can treat some simple ailments. In addition to being a headhunter, he also works as a doctor to subsidize his family on weekdays. He is quite well-known in my family. "
Su Qian nodded after hearing Xu Qing's words and didn't have too much doubt, but felt warm in her heart.
She has never seen what kind of person Xu Qing's father looks like. She only heard her father say that Xu Qing's three generations have been policemen, and she would not know that Xu Qing's father in this life is actually illiterate with less than 100 words... let alone It is impossible for Xu Qing's family to produce any medical books...
Back home, Su Qian still wanted to go to the kitchen to cook, but Xu Qing pushed her out on the grounds that she was sick and needed to rest, and then made a glass of honey water for Su Qian, and asked Su Qian to sit at the table in the dining room Drink slowly.
Su Qian could only sit outside, through the small door on the side, watching Xu Qing who was busy by the stove while drinking honey water.
Actually... she really just had some coughing...
Xu Qing sighed while cooking in the kitchen, but it's a pity that it's not the season for ripe pears, otherwise Xu Qing could make Su Qian a rock sugar pear, which is the best way to relieve cough.
It's a pity that there is no place to find pears in this winter.
Xu Qing decided to wait until tomorrow to find Xiao Ye and ask if there were any pears in the palace.
Generally, a super-rich family like Wangfu will have some stored fruits in their homes. After picking them, they will be placed in the ice cellar, and the low temperature of the ice cellar will be used to achieve the purpose of long-term preservation.
As far as his relationship with Xiao Ye is concerned, wouldn't it be easy to grab a few pears?
My own wife still has to feel sorry for herself.
After the father-in-law came back, he saw Xu Qing cooking in the kitchen, and Su Qian sitting at the dining table sipping honey water.
Since the Xu family's serious problem was solved, the father-in-law's mood became better and better, and he even drank wine at the dinner table several times.
But fortunately, the wine he drank these two times was not the kind of strong wine poured in a glass, but rice wine with a very low alcohol content.
"Drinking honey water to relieve cough? Weifu seems to have heard from the doctor that it will be effective. How did Xu Qing know? He is not a doctor."
After listening to his daughter's explanation about the honey water, the county magistrate of Su asked in confusion.
Su Qian said: "Xu Qing's father read medical books in his spare time when he was a headhunter. The area near Xu Qing's home is quite famous."
County magistrate Su blinked, is his daughter serious? Old Xu, who struggled to read a simple law, has read medical books? Still famous? Just him?
