Chapter 002 Heartburn
Changzhou, Jiangsu, also known as Longcheng. In his previous life, Gu Jinzhi was born here.
However, it is now called Yanling Mansion.
Yanling Mansion is picturesque, and the Longxi River passes by the city. The Longxi River is adjacent to the Grand Canal, close to the East China Sea, the Yangtze River and Taihu Lake, and the transportation is convenient. It has the reputation of "Zhongwu Yaofu and Bayi Mingdu".
Yanling is the hometown of fish and rice, and it is a treasure. Nowadays, the world is peaceful, and there are tens of thousands of people competing for the flow, and the merchants are like clouds. It is necessary not to mention the wealth and prosperity.
In her previous life, Gu Jinzhi's parents were both children of the Wang clan in the capital, while she herself was born and grew up in Changzhou.
At that time, her father was in politics and experienced grassroots training. He was the deputy mayor of Changzhou, and her mother also went to work in Changzhou. Gu Jinzhi was born in Changzhou. When she was thirteen years old, her father, the secretary of the Changzhou Municipal Party Committee, was transferred to the capital, and she followed her parents back to her home in the capital.
Later, Gu Jinzhi occasionally passed by Changzhou because of his work, but he never had a chance to live for a long time.
When she died, she always dreamed of her small yard in Changzhou. The lush gardenia trees, before and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the snow-colored buds are covered with green branches, and the yard is full of fragrance.
She has never smelled that strong fragrance in her life.
She didn't expect that she would have a chance to return to Changzhou when she traveled through time.
However, Changzhou is already Yanling, a more antique ancient town.
Now, she is no longer Gu Jinzhi, the eldest daughter of the family of traditional Chinese medicine, but Gu Jinzhi, the seventh lady of Chengguo Gongfu.
The same as her previous life is that her ancestors were all medical heirs and famous; her grandfathers were the holy hands of the world, and her father's uncles were unwilling to inherit the family business and insisted on business or politics.
Without his support, his grandfather taught his medical skills to his beloved granddaughter, just like her grandfather in her previous life.
When her grandfather Gu Shifei handed her the medical scriptures every day, Gu Jinzhi did not feel boring, but relished and was very diligent and eager to learn. Although her grandfather Gu Shifei taught her something, she had been familiar with it for a long time.
She understands the old man and doesn't want her grandfather to be sad.
Grandfather didn't want to teach Gu Jinzhi. When he began to teach Gu Jinzhi, Gu Jinzhi was already ten years old. In this era, she would get married in three or five years.
Grandfather wants to teach Gu Jinzhi's younger brother Gu Xuanzhi.
Gu Xuanzhi is only five years old and can't understand the book. His grandfather told him about the internal scriptures. How could he understand what his grandfather was talking about? My grandfather was often angry about this and was angry alone.
Gu Jinzhi thought of his grandfather in his previous life and couldn't bear it.
The old man is in his twilight years, but he just wants to have someone to follow in his life. His sons all felt that his medical skills were mediocre. His other grandchildren were far away in the capital, and only one of Gu Jin's family accompanied him.
Gu Jinzhi has two younger brothers, a seven-year-old brother and a five-year-old brother.
Grandfather has a clear distinction between love and hate. He doesn't like Gu Jinzhi's brother Gu Yuzhi very much.
Looking at his grandfather's decadement, Gu Jinzhi began to deliberately recite a few words in front of his grandfather. Grandfather was surprised and tentatively taught Gu Jin something. Soon, he found that Gu Jin's memory was amazing and his understanding ability was super strong.
He sighed: Gu Jinzhi is a genius and should be his heir.
Since then, Gu Jinzhi has studied medicine with his grandfather every day.
In the past two years, she has learned the Inner Sutra, the Difficult Sutra, the Treatise on Typhoid Fever, the Summary of the Golden Kui, etc.
Gu Jinzhi's parents objected at first. They think that it is almost enough for girls to read a few women's four books and five scriptures, and then learn the female commandments and filial piety. In the future, I will have time to read some poems to decorate the facade. It's the right thing to be a red girl.
It's just that Gu Jinzhi used to be silent, and his grandfather was also lazy and didn't care about the world. Since he began to study medicine, Gu Jinzhi has the spirit and occasionally shows the liveliness of the little girl; his grandfather is also full of spirit, and his voice is loud and powerful.
Gu Jinzhi's parents never intervened again.
In Yanling, the rules are not as strict as in the capital.
The children are healthy and the elderly are healthy, which is the greatest blessing.
In a flash, it has been two years, and Gu Jinzhi has learned his grandfather's knowledge. Anyone in the family has a headache and a fever, she prescribed a prescription to take medicine.
She doesn't have to hide her past life.
It's just that anyone in his family was ill, and when he began to show signs, he was found by Gu Jinzhi and prescribed a prescription. After eating, the disease recovered.
Because it was cured when it was gradually prevented, no one knew that their condition was serious, and they thought that they were originally a minor illness, and Gu Jinzhi was also a small trick.
So, she got the name of half a bucket of water.
No one believes that she has medical skills.
"Sister Jin, why are you in a daze again?"
On the third day of April, it was Gu Jinzhi's eldest aunt Sun's birthday. His mother took Gu Jinzhi and his brother Gu Xuanzhi to celebrate his birthday.
Hua Gai's fringed carriage squeaked forward, and her mother, Mrs. Gu, tidied up her brother Gu Xuanzhi's clothes. When she turned around, she saw Gu Jinzhi sitting in a daze and couldn't help calling her gently.
Gu Jinzhi looked back and showed a shallow smile.
And my mother doesn't like her to be in a daze. Every time I saw her stunned, my mother's heart thumped. I was afraid that she would be a fool, so she would call her.
"The mouth will be sweet later, and you will scream when you see people..." Mother told Gu Jinzhi again.
Gu Jinzhi is famous for not talking.
She nodded and said, "I remember, mother." I stopped my mother's nagging.
"Don't be in a daze when sitting in the table!" My mother still couldn't stop and told her again.
Gu Jinzhi used to be embarrassed. He didn't like to talk to anyone when sitting. He thought about things quietly alone. Relatives in the family often said behind her back that she had a bad brain, something wrong, and her mother was so angry.
For a long time, Gu Jinzhi is a stupid girl, who is already famous. No one came to ask for marriage at the age of 12 this year.
My mother is worried about this.
Gu Jinzhi smiled faintly again and continued to say, "I know."
Whether it's true or false, Mrs. Gu San has no way to know. Seeing Gu Jin's submissive face, he didn't say it again.
The car arrived at Qingguo Lane.
Qingguo Lane is one of the most famous places in Yanling Prefecture, inhabited by two Wang ethnic groups in Yanling: the Song family and the Jiang family.
The Song family is Gu Jinzhi's family.
Yanling Song family, famous in the south of the Yangtze River, has been a Wang family for 300 years.
There have been many celebrities in the Song family.
For example, Gu Jinzhi's great-grandfather, Song Ming, was a famous anti-Japanese general. He died on the battlefield and was praised by literati and Moke, which has been passed down to this day.
Like Gu Jinzhi's second uncle, Song Xi, was a child prodigy in the south of the Yangtze River. At the age of 15, he was the first person in the dynasty. He was in Hanlin Academy for two years, and then quit his job and returned to Yanling. He has been known as the first talent in the south of the Yangtze River in poetry, calligraphy and painting all day long.
His calligraphy and painting are hard to find.
In the youth history of later generations, there are the names of Song Ming and Song Xi, and Gu Jinzhi sighed very much.
It turns out that this is the name of the ages.
Gu Jinzhi's grandfather and uncle have no reputation. My grandfather used to be a governor of Wenzhou, and my uncle is now a salt method in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, which is extremely fat.
The Song family has flourished until now.
The carriage went straight to the hanging flower gate of Song Mansion.
Gu Jinzhi and the three of them got out of the car, and the second aunt Qin took the maids and servants to welcome them out in person.
"Brother Xuan has grown up again!" The second aunt said to her mother with a smile, "Our brother is two months older than him, and he is less than half as big as him."
Brother Yan is the youngest son of his second aunt. His scientific name is Song Yanyu. He is also seven years old this year.
"How can it be inconclusive for a child to grow up?" The mother smiled and said, "If you grow up late, you will grow well in the future. You are in a hurry..."
The second aunt laughed: "No, I wish he could grow up at once..."
Everyone laughed when they said it.
Then the second aunt praised Gu Jin's beauty.
Gu Jinzhi shouted at his second aunt and quietly followed his mother.
The group went to the yard of their aunt.
Today is the birthday of the eldest aunt Sun. Unlike the bustle of previous years, this year, only the sister-in-law and several close relatives of the Song clan have been invited. The others don't have it, but it's simple.
My mother looked at this and was slightly surprised and wanted to ask what was going on.
My aunt has always been extravagant.
Yuehuating set up a small stage. After the guests came, they went to Yuehuating to have a banquet.
My aunt is a little depressed.
Her mother asked her, "Sister-in-law, are you tired?"
My aunt and mother had a good relationship, so she whispered to her, "My body is not very good... I had a cold and fever last month. After taking Dr. Zhao's medicine, the fever has subsided and the wind and cold have recovered. It's just that my heart is full of fire, and it's always unpleasant. It's not good to eat or sleep..."
The mother looked at her aunt's face and really reduced it a little. She said, "It's not good to be next to her. Can you ask Dr. Zhao to have a look again?"
Dr. Zhao's name is Zhao Daoyuan. He used to be a Taoist priest. He is a famous magic doctor in the south of the Yangtze River.
"He went to the capital." The aunt was very sorry, and then lowered her voice and said, "I heard that a nobleman in Beijing was sick, so I specially invited Dr. Zhao."
My mother was slightly stunned.
Zhao Daoyuan is very arrogant and pays attention to fate when seeing a doctor. He has a little friendship with Gu Jinzhi's grandfather, so his aunt can invite him to have a look.
Generally, the nobles can't move him unless he is a big man.
My mother was speechless.
After a pause, the mother said, "Then ask other doctors to have a look?""Please..." My aunt said, "The doctor in Yanling has invited me. After taking the medicine, I still can't get better, and my heart is even hotter. I'm always greedy for ice. Last time I ate a bowl of iced lotus seed soup and slept well. But iced things are always cold. This is not a hot summer, and I dare not eat more..."
The mother frowned slightly.
She didn't understand the medical reason, so she was at a loss.
"Last time you said you had a headache, and you were cured after taking the medicine prescribed by your old man. Can you ask your old man to prescribe medicine for me? My aunt thought of the old man of the Gu family.
The old man heard that his medical skills were mediocre.
But my aunt thought that since he had been a point of the imperial hospital, he should be a little more able, at least better than those unknown doctors in Yanling.
Yanling is a famous doctor, and his aunt has seen it all over.
After taking the medicine for a month, it still doesn't work.
She is now in a hurry to see a doctor.
My mother smiled and said, "... My grandfather hasn't opened a prescription for five or six years. Last time I was in terrible pain, and the medicine in the past was not good. Life is not as good as death. It was the prescription prescribed by Sister Jin. What does she know? After that, I thought that it should be the old man who read my daily filial piety and told the prescription to Sister Jin..."
My aunt showed some regret.
As she spoke, there were beads of sweat on her forehead, and the heat in her heart rose inexplicably.
When it's hot, my heart is burning, and I feel very uncomfortable.
"Go and bring a bowl of iced lotus seed soup." My aunt hesitated for a moment and ordered the little maid beside her.
When she couldn't stand it, she ate ice to calm the town.
My mother looked aside and was shocked.
She has been married to the Gu family for more than ten years, and she knows some medical principles. If there is heat in the body, medicine should be used to guide it, so as to press it with ice, for fear that the disease will get worse.
But she only knew this and didn't know what to do, so she didn't say much.
When I got home at night, my mother told my father Gu Yanzhen about my aunt's illness.
Gu Jinzhi and his brother Gu Xuanzhi ate the fresh peaches brought back by his father.
In this season, peaches are not on the market yet, and I don't know where my father got them from. My brother ate happily. Gu Jinzhi didn't like the taste of peaches very much. He nibbled at it and listened to his parents.
"Is it serious?" Gu Yanzhen asked with concern.
"I can't see it." Song said, "The sister-in-law is already plump, and she has reduced a little, and she looks still energetic. However, she said she was heartburning. This is not a good thing at all.
Gu Jinzhi bit the peach again, which was crispy and a little sour.
