"Really," the palace maid couldn't help it, "she's even fairer than our young master."

It is said that babies born earlier are fairer, since the redness and wrinkles will fade away after all.

Bai Erlang couldn't hold it back and ran to the backyard of the county government office to take a look.

Yin You was also there. When he saw him coming, he smiled and said, "I was about to find you. I got a piece of jade. It's not bad. I'll have someone cut it out and make two jade pendants for the children to press their clothes. Just use them as clothes.

This is my full moon gift to them."

What a coincidence that the two children were born. Although one was born in the early morning and the other was born after the sun rose, there was a difference of two hours, but they were indeed born on the same day.

Washing is on the same day, and naturally the full moon is also on the same day.

Beihai County became lively. On the third day of the third year of the lunar month, the guests went to the princess's mansion first, then turned around and went to the backyard of the county government office.

However, Mingda, Bai Erlang, Xi San and Man Yue didn't invite many people. Apart from Bai Shan and Yin You, there were only three or four people who were relatively familiar here.

Many people did not post anything and only sent gifts to their homes. Most of Bai Erlang asked people to return them, leaving only some less expensive gifts.

Because Bai Shan was the county magistrate and Zhou Man was the acting magistrate, so many people came.

But they were all in the front yard, and Zhou Man didn't want too many people to gather together to look after the children, so he didn't see many guests in the backyard.

As for the child, she didn't even take it out, pushing it away on the pretext that she was afraid the child would catch cold.

Bai Erlang ran over to join in the fun, touched a handful of beans and asked her while eating, "Why don't you take the baby out and have a look?"

"There are too many people coming. There are also people coming from Qingzhou and Laizhou. They may have external evils on their bodies. At this time, the children are delicate, so it is better not to go out." Moreover, the female family members still smell of powder, and she smells it when there are many people.

It's so annoying to wear it, let alone a child.

Bai Erlang thought so too.

Compared with the busy front yard, the backyard was a little quiet. Zhou Man put the child on the cradle, rocked it gently with one foot, and took out the information in the drawer to read.

Bai Erlang finished eating the beans in his hand, clapped his hands and stood up, "I'm going back to see my son. Do you have anything to say to Mingda?"

Zhou Man said without raising his head: "Say hello to her for me."

Although she was undergoing confinement, Zhou Man did not go out at all. After the third bath, she went to the princess's mansion and communicated with Mingda about postpartum recovery. Taking advantage of this moment to rest and have time,

When the child is not too bothersome, the two of them are actively losing weight and recovering.

After that, she would visit Mingda every two or three days, and usually let the maids and maids send messages, so they didn't miss each other at all.

Bai Erlang waved his hand and was about to leave. He caught a glimpse of the thing in her hand with many words on it, so he curiously poked his head to see, "What is this?"

He glanced at it and found that he didn't understand.

Zhou Man said: "I found a medical book on treating Yang deficiency and heart failure, but you can't understand it, so there's no need to join in the fun."

As expected, Bai Erlang stopped reading and asked, "Is it for Uncle Shi's son?"

Zhou Man nodded, "They should have received the prescriptions and acupuncture methods I sent back, but I don't know how effective they will be."

She sighed: "The patient is too far away, and I haven't checked it myself. I have to be more careful when using medicines and needles."

Bai Erlang scratched his head and simply said: "Then let Uncle Shi send the child over."

Zhou Man: "This is a long trip. From Luojiang County to Qingzhou, it's too far and dangerous. Firstly, I don't know if their family is willing to come; secondly, we can't guarantee their safety along the way."

At this time, people in Luojiang County did receive Zhou Man's letter, and even started using the medicine and injections a few days ago.

Three days after Zhou Manshi gave birth, her family wanted to send a letter to the capital, and Mingda also wanted to send a letter to the palace, so she simply wrote down the prescription and acupuncture and sent it out.

When the letter arrived in the capital, Zhou Dalang sent someone to deliver the letter back, and also reported to Zhou Lang, who had already returned, that Zhou Man had given birth to a daughter safely.

After receiving the letter, shopkeeper Zheng discussed the prescription and acupuncture method with the doctor in the drug store, and finally tried it. Needless to say, the effect was much better than his previous prescription.

Moreover, the cost is much less and the precious medicinal materials used are much less.

Shi Xiaolang took medicine for a few days and got an injection every other day. Now he can walk.

But Shopkeeper Zheng felt his pulse and found that although he had improved slightly, the medicine and acupuncture alone were not enough to cure him. I am afraid he would have to take medicine and acupuncture for a long time, and he would not be much better than before.

He sighed and said, "It would be great if Dr. Zhou were here. She would consult and prescribe in person. The effect would definitely be better. Maybe there is a solution."

Mrs. Shi's eyes brightened for a moment and then dimmed. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "I heard that Divine Doctor Zhou is an official in a far away place and has just given birth to a child. She will definitely not return to her hometown."

Uncle Shi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Then let's go find her."

"What?" Mrs. Shi's heart beat violently. She was a little scared, but more nervous, "No, it's not good, where is Qingzhou? I heard Mr. Zhou say it's very far away."

Uncle Shi has never been timid, so he made up his mind and turned to shopkeeper Zheng directly, "Can Xiaolang's body be strong enough to travel far away?"

Shopkeeper Zheng hesitated for a while and then said: "It's okay to pay more attention. You might as well go to Dr. Zhou. Even if she can't cure the disease, it will be better than dragging it out like this. Maybe she can let Xiao Lang live like a normal person."

.”

He said: "There is a beloved son of Mr. Yin in the capital. I heard that he has been frail since he was a child and was judged by the imperial doctor in the imperial hospital that he would not survive until his death. However, after Mrs. Zhou's treatment, he can still live even though he is still frail.

, and he looks no different from ordinary people."

There is a big difference between good and bad medical skills.

Shopkeeper Zheng had to admit this. A doctor with poor medical skills could not save a person's life with ginseng, but a doctor with good medical skills could save a person with a handful of soil.

So he always felt that if he met a doctor with good medical skills, everything would be possible.

With the words of shopkeeper Zheng, Uncle Shi became more confident, but Mrs. Shi was very scared and hesitated: "What if Xiaolang can't stand the fatigue of the journey? And it's too far away. We are not familiar with the place."

…”

Shi Xiaolang, who had been sitting on a stool silently basking in the sun, suddenly said: "Mom, let's go."

"this……"

Uncle Shi had already waved his hand and said: "It's settled, you go pack your luggage and I'll find someone."

Uncle Shi went to find Zhou Lizhong, and through him met Zhou Lang who was collecting tea leaves everywhere.

"Going to Qingzhou?" Zhou Lang touched his chin, remembering Zhou Lijun's recent encouragement to him to go to Qingzhou, mainly because she wanted to see the seaport in Qingzhou.

The caravan going to the grassland, now that the three sons are familiar with each other, he can actually try to let them go on their own.

Zhou Lang rolled his eyes and asked Uncle Shi, "If we go to Qingzhou, we can't go empty-handed. That place is near the sea. What do you think we should bring with us?"
