The Chief Minister's Ferocious Wife

Chapter 189: Dude, the needles hurt

   Chapter 189 Brother, it hurts to apply acupuncture

   "Also." Zhao Chuchu agreed without thinking.

   Xin Lichuan is really too inconvenient here, I can't even bring anything out to beat the tooth festival.

   If it wasn't for his serious injuries, Zhao Chuchu would have sent him away a long time ago, so as not to disturb her rural retirement life.

   Xie Heng agreed without hesitation when he saw Zhao Chuchu, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

   "Then we will enter the city tomorrow."

"Um."

  …

   Xin Lichuan breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that he could return to the city.

   But when he saw the fish head in his bowl, and the boiled fish on the table that made his index finger move, nothing tasted good.

   But after he finished eating the fish head, Zhao Chuchu took a few pieces of fish for him with the chopsticks: "The shopkeeper has a taste."

  Oil but not greasy, spicy but not dry, numb but not bitter, smooth and tender meat... Such fish makes Xin Lichuan shine.

   "Is this what you call boiled fish?"

"Um."

  Xie Heng cherished his words like gold, while he cut fish bones for Zhao Chuchu and Xie Jun.

   "Xie Xianggong, let's discuss, can you sell me this recipe for boiled fish?" Xin Lichuan looked at Xie Heng, "We can negotiate the price!"

   Xie Heng said, "You have to ask Chu Chu about this, and Chu Chu gave me the recipe."

   Xin Lichuan was suspicious.

   He had never seen Zhao Chuchu cook during his time at Xie's house. Xie Heng was all in charge of cooking. How did Zhao Chuchu come up with the recipe?

   Zhao Chuchu saw Xin Lichuan's suspicion and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What price can the big shopkeeper pay?"

   "This." Xin Lichuan raised a slap.

"Fifty?"

   "No, five hundred taels, but you have to promise not to give it to anyone else in the future."

   Is there really such a thing as selling recipes in novels?

   However, Zhao Chuchu has eaten at Kelaixiang. For such a time-honored brand, the cooking method is also very monotonous, mainly steaming, boiling and roasting.

  According to Xie Heng, in the previous dynasty, 脍 was the main one.

  "脍" means raw cuts, which are uncooked raw meat directly sliced ​​and eaten, mainly for fish, looking for a fresh word, similar to the sashimi of later generations.

   And these dishes of later generations, after thousands of years of precipitation and accumulation, are the essence of major cuisines, and they naturally kill the existence of this era.

   No wonder Xin Lichuan is so eager to get the recipe.

  With these dishes, are you worried that you won’t be able to grab the stomach of your diners?

   "I'll think about it." Zhao Chuchu didn't come down immediately.

   She is thinking about whether she can organize the recipes and sell them?

   There are so many cuisines, and one cuisine is divided into three volumes... This is all money!

   "Eight hundred!" Xin Lichuan was a decisive person and immediately increased the price.

   There is no business that cannot be negotiated. If there is, it means that the money is not enough!

  The silver is in place, what to say.

   "Deal." Zhao Chuchu agreed.

   "But I don't have any money on me right now, so I have to go back to the county town to pay you." Xin Lichuan confessed.

   "Big shopkeeper is this a white wolf with empty gloves?"

   "It's a pity you don't fall into the trap."

  If Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng were an ordinary couple, he could try the white wolf with empty gloves.

  It's a pity that these two are better than foxes, do you plan on them? You can't get better yourself.

   What's more, Zhao Chuchu still has a life-saving grace for him, no matter what he does, he will never avenge Zhao Chuchu's enmity.

   After eating, Zhao Chuchu took Xie Jun out to digest food, and taught him medical principles by the way.

   When he came back, after Zhao Chuchu asked Xie Jun to take medicine, he began to give Xie Jun acupuncture, combining the two to slowly remove the poison that Xie Jun brought from his mother's womb.

  When giving needles, Xie Jun would be in pain worse than death, but he held back every time, biting his handkerchief without saying a word.

   Zhao Chuchu looked at Xie Jun, who was bloodless and sweating profusely, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed for this child.

   "Junjun, are you feeling bad?"

   Zhao Chuchu wiped his sweat for him.

  Xie Jun pulled out a reluctant smile, very weak: "Sister-in-law, I-I'm fine, I can handle it."

   Zhao Chuchu patted his head: "Don't be afraid, it's just going to be so uncomfortable in the first month, and in twenty days, you just need to take medicine."

   "Still, there are still twenty days left?" Xie Jun was dumbfounded.

   No matter how well-behaved, after all, he is only a ten-year-old child.

   For him, the process of detoxification was more painful than the attack, and he was somewhat afraid.

   "Well, but after this period of time, you won't be worse off in winter, you won't have to take medicine all the time, and your brother won't need to take care of you all night long."

  Xie Jun's mouth was flat and his eyes were red: "Sister-in-law, I can get through it."

   He doesn't want to be a burden to his brother and sister-in-law!

   "Good." Zhao Chuchu wiped the cold sweat that kept falling down for him.

  It takes a quarter of an hour to apply the needle.

   After pulling out the silver needle, Xie Jun collapsed, and he didn't even have the strength to lie on the bed.

   At this time, Xie Heng brought in hot water, wiped Xie Jun's body, and put on dry clothes to prevent him from catching a cold.

   Waiting for Zhao Chuchu to go out, Xie Jun burst into tears: "Brother, it hurts to apply acupuncture."

   Xie Heng's movements stopped, and in a trance, he seemed to see the scrawny boy in his previous life who was tortured by a toxic attack to the point of death.

   But at that time, Xie Jun didn't want to live, he still held on for him until the poison penetrated into the internal organs and there was no cure...

   The softness in Xie Heng's heart was touched, and he said warmly, "It hurts for a while now, and I won't need to hurt anymore. Junjun must be strong and don't cry in front of your sister-in-law."

   "No, I'll tell my brother." Xie Jun choked up, not because of the pain and grievance, but because he was accustomed to relying on Xie Heng, and when he saw him, he couldn't help but want to cry, which has become an instinct.

   "Don't be afraid of Jun Jun, brother will always be by your side." Xie Heng patted Xie Jun's head.

   will also return the sufferings of Xie Jun to the originator a hundredfold.

  Xie Jun hugged Xie Heng and wept silently.

   He didn't dare to cry in front of Zhao Chuchu, but with Xie Heng he never needed to hide it.

  Xie Jun is actually very smart. He knows that he is not sick, but he has not asked Xie Heng what the reason is.

   He didn't want Xie Heng to be under too much pressure.

  Xie Heng lowered his eyes and looked at Xie Jun.

   Only in front of Zhao Chuchu and Xie Jun can Xie Heng show the same tenderness as now.

  Xie Jun wiped away his tears after crying enough, and lay down obediently: "Brother, I will hold on."

   "Well, rest early, we're going into the city tomorrow."

   "Take me?"

"right."

  Xie Jun suddenly felt happy again, as if the pain of the injection just now disappeared.

  Seeing this, Xie Heng smiled helplessly, tucked the quilt for Xie Jun, and then went out.

   "Is my sister-in-law going too?" Xie Jun didn't forget to ask.

   "We went together." Xie Heng turned back.

  Xie Jun grinned: "Then you have to call me tomorrow."

   "Okay, go to sleep." Xie Heng promised him.

  Xie Jun closed his eyes and looked forward to tomorrow.
