The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Chapter 65 The Engagement of King Qi

"Master, aren't you here to learn how to make penicillin? Why are you talking so much about money, money, money, as if you are in the eyes of money?" Ye Yuxiao stirred the charcoal powder and rolled her eyes at him secretly.

"You put it lightly. If you had no money, could you make penicillin?" Tan Shizhao glared at her.

It is true that no matter what you do, economy is the foundation. When she is free, count the dowry. Ye Yuxiao watched the charcoal powder absorb all the penicillin water and then injected distilled water: "This is to further wash out the impurities."

"It looks really complicated." Gu Ruyan pouted.

It's quite tedious, this is purely handmade natural penicillin. Ye Yuxiao smiled at her, poured the washed charcoal powder into acidic water made with vinegar to remove alkaline impurities, and finally poured it into alkaline soda water.

Gradually, a solution seeped out from the charcoal powder, and Ye Yuxiao smiled: "This is purified penicillin."

"Is it over?" Tan Shizhao watched intently and asked.

"It's not over yet." Ye Yuxiao poured the purified penicillin solution into a small cup, added a few drops of light yellow liquid, and closed the lid. "We have to wait another seven days to determine whether this batch of penicillin is successful. . But in order to ensure the success rate, I raised several batches of Penicillium at the same time, and one batch will always succeed."

"What did you drip into just now?" Tan Shizhao asked.

"Cultivated patient's urine." Ye Yuxiao replied, "It contains Staphylococcus aureus."

"Urine? Don't you think it's dirty?" Tan Shizhao looked her up and down. No matter how he looked at her, she looked like a delicate young lady.

"Why should I study medicine if I'm afraid of getting dirty?" Ye Yuxiao cleared the table and stood up, "It's done. Let's go and teach me how to make a human skin mask."

Tan Shizhao followed her outside and asked, "Is this penicillin used to treat bacteremia?"

He actually remembers bacteremia? Ye Yuxiao nodded: "Yes, it is to treat bacteremia."

"What kind of poison are bacteria?" Tan Shizhao suddenly asked again.

Ye Yuxiao finally understood. He thought penicillin was used to detoxify, that's why he was so interested. However, this question was very troublesome to explain. She didn't have the time at the moment, so she just said: "Bacteria are poisonous and cannot be explained in one or two sentences. I'll explain it to you slowly when Master teaches me medical skills." .”

Teach her medical skills? Tan Shizhao immediately fell silent.

The three of them left the research room. Ye Yuxiao pulled Gu Ruyan and followed Tan Shizhao to the Shiquan Academy, urging him to teach human skin masks.

Tan Shizhao actually kept his word and took out a box of semi-finished products to teach her. Ye Yuxiao was already proficient in the structure of the human body and learned it extremely quickly. But she strongly suspected that this was nothing to Tan Shizhao, because he didn't even avoid Gu Ruyan!

Ye Yuxiao studied with Tan Shizhao for half an hour and understood all the principles and methods. It turns out that Tan Shizhao used a special method to nitrate the human skin in advance, so no matter how long it is left, it will not rot or shrink.

However, Xichao didn't have a body specifically for medical research, so where could she get human skin? If you have learned this method, you have not learned it. Ye Yuxiao felt that she was at a huge disadvantage and took away Tan Shizhao's box of semi-finished human skin masks that had been prepared, despite his strong objections.

Tan Shizhao was very stingy and insisted on recovering her. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Gu Ruyan finally remembered their sisterhood and stopped her, and she was able to successfully escape with the skin.

In the following days, Ye Yuxiao was very busy. He was either busy making medicine or treating the servants at home every day, which greatly improved the health rate of Prince Pingnan Mansion.

Besides that, she took the time to count her dowry. Excluding those antiques, calligraphy, paintings, and jewelry, she had a total of 10,000 taels of cash at her disposal.

In the Xi Dynasty, even a young lady from an aristocratic family would receive only two thousand taels of silver from her father-in-law when she got married. And her dowry amounted to 10,000 yuan in cash, which shows how much Prince Pingnan dotes on her.

Now that she has capital, skills, and free time, why not start realizing her ideals? Ye Yuxiao thought about it for a moment, called Xiao Zuan over, and asked, "Do I have any real estate in my name?"

"Of course." Xiaozhan brought a wooden box and took out the house deed and land deed inside to show her, "Miss, you have twelve large and small farms under your name, with thousands of acres of fertile land..."

Yes, there is sustainable income. Ye Yuxiao nodded secretly and asked: "Where is the city? Do I have a house in the city?"

"No." Xiao Zuan shook his head, "You are living in your grandfather's house after all. If you buy another house, others will be worried."

"What about the shop?" Ye Yuxiao rummaged through the box, "Do I have a street front in my name?"

"No." Xiaozhan shook his head again, "When you got married, Princess Pingnan originally wanted to buy a few shops for you, and even found shopkeepers for you, but you didn't want it because you didn't want it. The princess had to give it to you. You have replaced them with gold and jade jewelry and antique calligraphy and paintings. You don’t need to worry about these things, just put them in the warehouse.”

Well, if not, then there won't be. Anyway, she has money in her hands, so everything is easy to talk about. Ye Yuxiao stood up: "Come on, let's go out for a walk."

Xiaozhan liked it the most when going out for shopping. He immediately responded loudly and ordered people to prepare their horses.

Ye Yuxiao took Xiao Zuan, followed by a group of generals, and walked out the door.

As soon as they left the alley and entered the street, they heard the faint sound of drum music coming from the southeast, and the people on the street rushed towards the direction of the music, all with smiles on their faces.

"What excitement are they going to see?" Ye Yuxiao stopped his horse and looked around curiously.

A passerby answered her: "Prince Qi's Mansion is holding an engagement banquet. Let's go there to feel happy!"

"The engagement banquet? King Qi and the sixth lady of Wu'anhou Mansion?" Ye Yuxiao asked.

"Yes, yes, that's His Royal Highness Prince Qi and the Sixth Miss of Wu'an Hou Mansion. I heard that Concubine Bai of Prince Qi Mansion was anxious to have her grandson, so she arranged a marriage for Prince Qi first, and she will get married as soon as he comes back from the war!" Passers-by With that said, he hurried towards the southeast, as if he would not be happy if he went late.

"It's just a date, and we're throwing a banquet with great fanfare, as if we're afraid that others won't know about it." Xiao Zuan swung his horsewhip angrily.

"Put away your angry expression, otherwise others will think that I am still in love with Qi Wangyu." Ye Yuxiao pointed at Xiaozhan's face.

Xiaozhan quickly pulled up the corners of his droopy mouth and made a smile.

This girl! Ye Yuxiao laughed loudly, cracked his whip, and moved on.

At this time, suddenly a girl dressed up, surrounded by many companions, walked over from the street and happened to stop Ye Yuxiao's horse.

"Isn't this Miss Ye? Today, Prince Qi is engaged, how dare she come out and embarrass herself?"

"She probably only knows how to fight. She doesn't know how to write the word 'concubine'."

This group of people laughed at Ye Yuxiao, covering their mouths and laughing until their branches were trembling.
