Concubine is difficult

Chapter 40
The dim candlelight reflected on Tao Hong's face, and the tone danced slightly, making that little face as warm as jade.Looking at such a face, Wu Yuanyi couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Although Feng Chao was not so strict with men and women, he was still very strict with women's independent living.That is to say, even if her medical skills can support herself by then, it will be impossible without her husband's family.

"Tao Hong, you think so, with my identity, can my mother match me with a good family?" Well, since we have come to ancient times, we have to start thinking from the ancient thinking, Wu Yuanyi has always judged the situation people.

Tao Hong lowered her head slightly, this was obvious, and she didn't need to say it out loud to hurt Miss's heart.

"Yes, right now, my aunt has paved the way for me. If I don't hold on to the big tree of the old lady, I can imagine what will happen to me in the future." Wu Yuanyi looked at the dancing candlelight and said lightly. , There is no sadness in the words, only unyielding.

"Miss, it's a pity that this servant doesn't know a single word, otherwise I really want to share the burden for Miss." Tao Hong said with self-blame.

"Do you really want to know how to read?" Wu Yuanyi asked.

Tao Hong has a good temper, but she is too cautious.She said carefully: "Yes, it's just that the servants are vulgar..."

"It's okay, wait until tomorrow to get a book of literacy enlightenment from my elder brother, and this lady will teach you well!" Wu Yuanyi already felt that the burden on him was heavy.

"Thank you, Miss." Tao Hong's eyes lit up, and she quickly thanked her.

Looking at Tao Hong's bright little face, Wu Yuanyi calmed down secretly, the words just now could not help persuading Tao Hong, and made himself think about the way forward: find a husband who can handle her!

She frowned slightly, and began to copy seriously.

The next day, Wu Yuanyi got up early and had a good night's sleep. The sleepiness from copying scriptures at night was gone.She came to old man Su's vegetable garden first, and watched the seedlings she nursed grow taller, which also gave her a sense of accomplishment.

She was so immersed in her own world that she didn't realize that someone had also come to this yard.

"Fifth Miss." The broken gong voice really shocked Wu Yuanyi.

She looked at old man Su in shock, still dressed in blue and black coarse cloth, standing respectfully aside, with a calm expression, reminiscent of the expression of a god statue in a temple.

"Grandpa Su, the scriptures copied today have been placed on the table in the ancestral hall." Although Wu Yuanyi was still shocked, he dared not say anything.This is the person she wants to learn medical skills from. If she gets angry, it won't work.

"Does Fifth Miss know what these are planted?" Old man Su asked while squatting in a corner, pointing to one of them.

"I don't know."

"This is pinellia, which can dry dampness and resolve phlegm, reduce adverse events and relieve vomiting, and reduce boils and swelling." Old man Su pointed to another plant like a treasure, and said, "This is Qianhu, which has the effect of reducing qi and reducing qi. Phlegm, the power of dispelling wind and clearing heat..."

Listening to the old man Su introducing several kinds of herbs one by one, Wu Yuanyi only hated himself for not bringing a pen and paper to go out. A good memory is not as good as a bad pen!
Maybe old man Su heard Wu Yuanyi's heartfelt voice, took out a yellowed book from his arms, and handed it to Wu Yuanyi.

Wu Yuanyi took the book. The cover of the book was just a blank piece of paper without the title.But when she looked through the content, she realized that it was a medicinal herb book, which detailedly drew the appearance of each herbal medicine and wrote out its efficacy.

"I have to memorize it." Old man Su left such a sentence and left.Only Wu Yuanyi was left looking at the three-finger-thick book, so thick...recited...like autumn leaves fluttering in the wind.
