While walking home along the way, Bai Song heard the official messenger passing the news along the way.
After learning of the great victory in the northwest war, the Turks surrendered.
Bai Song was filled with emotion and felt more relaxed. It seemed that history had not changed because of his appearance.
The war that should have been won was finally won.
Such good news attracted cheers from the whole city as soon as it entered the city. When the lights were turned off at dusk, Jixian County became unusually lively.
With the excitement along the way, Bai Song thought about having something good to celebrate after returning home.
Arriving at the back door of the house, I suddenly spotted a somewhat familiar carriage.
Bai Song was stunned, feeling that he had seen this carriage somewhere before. Before he could think about it, he smelled the smell of medicine coming from the courtyard.
Bai Song felt a little strange. When he entered the door, he saw Dongxiang, who had not seen him early in the morning, squatting in the corner of the courtyard, building a small stove, as if he was boiling medicine.
Catkins from the willow branches hanging from the wall in the courtyard next door fell all over her head.
But this girl was very serious and didn't notice at all.
Bai Song frowned as he smelled the medicine, thinking to himself, why does this taste the same as anti-fetal medicine?
Could it be that this winter fragrance...
Bai Song quietly came behind her and looked at her for a while without saying a word, but this girl didn't even notice.
Bai Song stretched out his hand to push aside the catkins on her head, and this action just woke her up from her concentration.
I was so frightened that I almost knocked over the medicine cup.
Bai Song gave a hand and held Dongxiang's thin shoulders, allowing her to stabilize her body.
"Master!"
Dongxiang was quite surprised, but then she became happy and was about to turn around and shout.
Bai Song held it in place and looked at it carefully.
Dongxiang felt a little guilty under Bai Song's gaze. She blinked and asked in a low voice, "Master, why are you looking at me like this?"
Bai Song didn't speak, but still watched carefully.
This Dongxiang has a tall body and a slightly rounded figure. She does not have the pretentiousness of ordinary women in ancient times. She does not look thin, especially her belly, which is almost visible to the naked eye.
After reading it, Bai Song felt certain in his heart, thinking that no wonder this girl wanted to cook anti-fetal medicine, and no wonder she had to follow him. She must have a lover outside, but he didn't know how to explain it.
In ancient times, it was a big deal for a woman to have an affair and become pregnant. Bai Song didn't want to embarrass Dongxiang by pointing it out, so he smiled and said, "You don't have to do these tasks in the future. You can go and rest. I will take care of this medicine."
Bai Song was self-righteous, but he didn't know that Dongxiang drank the sour plum soup cooked by Sang Sang.
In May, the plums are about to ripen, and the green plums in the sour plum soup are the best in this season. Sang Sang used the recipe Bai Song told her.
Dongxiang had never seen Bai Song's ability, never drank the refreshing sour plum soup to relieve the heat, and was extremely tired after another day of traveling.
When I returned to the hospital, I drank three bowls of it. My stomach was filled with sour plum soup.
But Bai Song mistakenly thought that Dongxiang was pregnant.
Hearing Bai Song say that he wanted to cook the medicine himself, Dongxiang thought about the matter again. She didn't feel strange, but felt happy in her heart. She agreed and returned to the house.
In the house, Xiang'er and Xiao Cui were tidying up the house, and the small room suddenly became crowded with the addition of two people's clothes.
"Madam, the young master is back."
Hearing this, Xiang'er panicked and hurriedly asked Xiaocui to straighten her clothes and scattered bangs.
"Madam, there is no need to be nervous. The young master is making medicine for madam outside." Dong Xiang smiled sweetly, took Xiang'er's hand and walked to the window, pointing to the corner wall of the courtyard, "Madam, look at how attentive the young master is!"
Xiang'er stared blankly, looking at the back that made people love and hate her, and gently pursed her lower lip.
"Madam, please don't be angry with the young master. Look at the young master being so attentive and insisting on decoction for the madam himself. It shows that the young master still cares about the madam."
Xiang'er wiped the corners of her eyes silently and squeezed out a smile: "You're already here, why are you still arguing with him?"
After saying that, Xiang'er turned and walked out of the room, and shouted from a distance under the eaves: "Mr.
With these two simple words, Bai Song, who was still concentrating on decoction a second ago, suddenly seemed to be summoned by something. He stood up suddenly and turned around, and saw the woman under the eaves.
For a moment, Bai Song didn't believe it and rubbed his eyes.
When I thought about the carriage I met when I entered the house, I realized that it was the Madam who was here.
"Xiang'er!"
As much as your mind thinks, your feet will move faster.
Bai Song took three steps and two steps at a time, and threw Xiang'er into his arms like a hungry wolf. In an instant, he was like the warm sun, showing infinite joy and lifting the beauty high, conveying the heat in his heart at this moment.
"Xiang'er! Xiang'er... why are you here?"
"Ms. sir... sir... ah, put me down quickly."
Bai Song held Xiang'er like a child and walked around in the courtyard. Several girls in the family looked at the naughty boy.
Some are helpless, some are funny, and some are envious.
Xiang'er experienced the initial panic, but gradually felt the joy in Bai Song's heart, and gradually started to smile.
"Xiang'er, aren't you angry with me?"
Bai Song panted and put Xiang'er down, carefully holding Xiang'er's face, ecstatic.
Xiang'er felt dizzy, leaning on her husband's arms, arranging her messy hair, and nodded pretending not to care.
"You...you didn't even say a word to me when you came. If I had known, I wouldn't have gone out."
"It was your good maid who came to the house early in the morning and tricked me here with her sweet words."
"My good maid?" Bai Song was stunned.
At this time, Dongxiang came over from the side and looked at Bai Song with a smile: "Master, do you like it?"
"You...you went to Mang County?"
Dongxiang nodded: "I know that the young master misses his wife day and night, so he took it upon himself to bring her back."
"..." The impact of this surprise was too strong. Bai Song still couldn't believe it. "So, Xiang'er, you're not going back to Mang County and you're staying here?"
Xiang'er blushed, lowered her head and said nothing.
Dongxiang smiled and said: "Young master, if you don't go and take a look inside, my wife has brought all your daily necessities, where can I leave here?"
"Uncle, Xiaocui is not here either."
Under the eaves, the little girl hugging the beams and pillars of the house was pouting and talking, very dissatisfied that her uncle ignored her.
Happiness came so suddenly, Bai Song didn't know how to express his inner joy, so he bit Xiang'er's mouth hard in front of everyone.
In an instant, all the girls in the family blushed with embarrassment, except for Bai Song, who laughed shamelessly in the courtyard.
There is a sense of confusion in the laughter.
Bai Song was startled and turned back to look at the medicine prepared by Yuan Jiao.
"It's over! I'm confused!"
Bai Song hurriedly ran over again and rescued a mouthful of usable decoction.
Bai Song took the decoction, and Bai Rou came over and asked, "Who is sick?"
It was not easy to publicize this matter, so Bai Song hesitated and did not answer.
Then he handed the decoction to Dongxiang. When he saw Dongxiang handing the decoction to Xiang'er, he felt something was wrong.
"Wait, whose medicine is this?"
"Master, as a man, you should stay out of our women's affairs." Dongxiang replied with a half-smile.
"..."
Xiang'er looked shy and walked into the house holding the medicine bowl. Bai Song looked more and more wrong and followed her in.
"Xiang'er, is the medicine yours?"
"Ms. sir, just leave it alone."
"Can I ignore it? This is an anti-fetal drug? Where can I take it randomly?"
Bai Song looked at Xiang'er, and there was nothing that looked like she was pregnant, but he was still worried and put his hand on Xiang'er's wrist.
After that, Bai Song finally relaxed and realized that Xiang'er was not pregnant.
"Dongxiang, come in." Bai Song called.
After Dongxiang came in, Bai Song pointed at the medicine and asked, "How do you explain this medicine?"
Xiang'er saw that her husband was pressing the question, so she blushed and told her her plan.
After hearing the reason for the incident, Bai Song couldn't laugh or cry. Love is the medicine that the wife only prepares if she wants to have children.
"Ouch... I was scared to death..." Bai Song breathed out, "Xiang'er, your husband is the most powerful doctor in the world. Don't talk about these things from hearsay in the future. This is an anti-fetal medicine. You only eat it after you’re pregnant, and you’re not even pregnant, so why are you eating it?”
"Oh..." Xiang'er blushed and didn't know what to say. She lowered her head all the way, so embarrassed.
The matter came to an end. Seeing that it was past dinner time, Bai Song personally cooked for a family of women.
In the entire Tang Dynasty, Bai Song was probably the only one who could do such a thing, and even a room full of women would find it strange.
As night falls, Bai Song's figure is still busy on the stove under the gradually shrouded darkness.
A room full of women sat under the eaves, eating melon seeds and dried green plums, blowing in the fragrant wind of catkins, and they were all very happy.
"How could the young master be such a...gentleman..."
"Sister Dongxiang, you'd better stop saying that. Brother Bai hates people saying 'a gentleman is far away from the cook'. We have tried to persuade him before, but he got scolded and got used to it." Sangsang said seriously.
Bai Rou looked admiring: "My brother is good at everything, but he has the ability."
"Ladies, get ready for dinner."
Bai Song's craftsmanship is not bad. What's better is that he has a variety of seasonings and the food he cooks is much better than ordinary restaurants outside.
After working for a while, I made a pot of stewed chicken, a pot of roasted meat, and two side dishes, which were enough to serve a few delicate women.
Bai Song was in a great mood. He looked at a table of girls surrounding him, and all his relatives in this life were reunited. It seemed like nothing...
No, there is another person.
Thinking about it, Bai Song raised his head and looked at the bright moon that was appearing and disappearing among the clouds. There was also a hint of helplessness in his joy.
But Bai Song is not sentimental. He knows that life will not always be reunited. Now that Xiang'er can return to his side, he is very satisfied.
It's just that these girls are getting together for the first time, and they are not so active with each other.
At the dinner table, except for Bai Rou who kept chattering, everyone else was relatively dull.
This matter will take time, and Bai Song will not force it. As long as they live together, things will get better.
After a full meal, drink a bowl of Bai Song's secret sour plum soup, which will instantly make you feel sleepy.
The small bowl of sour plum soup was well received by everyone.
Bai Rou was the first to suggest: "Brother, since our shop has been empty recently and we are not allowed to sell books, why don't we sell sour plum soup."
"Yes, this sour plum soup is refreshing and relieves the heat. As May begins and hot summer approaches, this sour plum soup has great potential." Sangsang also agreed.
The Bai Song Dynasty originally intended to make sour plum soup as a drink to relieve summer heat at home, and never thought of spreading it to the outside world.
I didn't expect the girls to be so optimistic about it, but it wasn't impossible. Fortunately, I nodded: "Just go and try it."
