Remember in one second【】
"How can I do that? If the young lady wants to make medicinal food, the servant can also do it. How about the young lady just give instructions to the servant to make it as usual?"
After finishing speaking, Mother Zhao also glanced at the eldest lady’s delicate and tender fingers. If these fingers are not wet with spring water, they can’t do rough work on the stove without hurting them.
Yu Youyao shook his head: "No need."
After a word of persuasion but no persuasion, Zhao’s mother stopped persuading.
Yu Youyao and Zhao’s mother picked chickens together: “Pick a young chicken and an old hen.”
Mother Zhao was puzzled. When it comes to stewing soup, the old hen must be the most nourishing. Just as she was about to ask, she heard the eldest lady say: "My cousin is a little weak, so it’s not good to supplement it, but it’s not enough to supplement it." , mend the broken body."
Mama Zhao suddenly realized what she was doing. She picked out a one-year chicken and ordered the ladies to clean it up.
Yu Youyao was not idle either. He took eight medicinal materials including angelica root, ginseng, and deer antlers, stuffed them into a cloth bag for soup, soaked them in water, and also put some spiritual dew into the water.
Soon, Mother Zhao brought back the neatly arranged chicken and stomped it into chicken pieces with her feet.
Yu Youyao first put the tender chicken pieces in a pot and boiled them until foam formed, then picked them up, washed them with clean water, added spices to bring out the fragrance, and then added clean water to boil them.
When it boils, a thick layer of chicken fat will float on the water.
Yu Youyao was worried that it was too greasy and tonic, so she skimmed off the oil, poured the chicken and soup together, put them in a purple clay pot, and simmered them over slow fire with a medicinal bag made of ginseng, deer antlers and other medicinal materials.
Mother Zhao looked on from the side, but she didn’t know how to give any advice: “This is the first time that Miss has gone to the kitchen seriously, and she is unambiguous in her work.”
The eldest lady is very unfamiliar with cooking, but she does things in an orderly manner, which shows that she has not learned anything from Aunt Xu in vain.
Yu Youyao smiled and made the old hen, adding angelica and ginseng, and explained: "The ginseng, antler and chicken soup is for my cousin. It needs to be simmered for an hour. The angelica and ginseng chicken soup needs to be stewed for two times." Time, please pay attention to the heat."
Mama Zhao responded with a smile.
After explaining, Yu Youyao looked for Nanny Xu.
After hearing about Young Master Biao’s condition of leg disease, Aunt Xu thought for a moment: “I do know a medicinal oil recipe that can activate blood circulation, relax muscles and unblock meridians, and also has the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain. Young Master Biao should It’s useful.”
Yu Youyao's eyes lit up: "Mommy, tell me quickly."
"Don't worry, we already have the medicinal oil recipe, but we still need to prepare the medicinal oil. Go to the incense room first, and I will teach you how to make it." After finishing speaking, Nanny Xu went to the incense room with Yu Youyao.
The Tiaoyu Courtyard was very large and had many rooms. Yu Youyao was very interested in making incense and studied it diligently, so she arranged an incense room with various medicinal materials, spices, etc. in it.
To make this medicinal oil, you need to use more than 20 kinds of medicinal materials such as cinnamon leaves, cinnamon, lemongrass, dried ginger, dried blood, turpentine, etc., but these medicinal materials must first be made into medicinal dew.
Fragrance was at its peak in the previous dynasties, and some perfumers used the wine vessels used to steam wine to make incense vessels for steaming incense and extracting its essence: put the spices and medicinal materials into water, boil them over charcoal fire, and steam them. Use a container to collect Dettol, so that fragrant dew can be made.
The medicated dew needed for medicated oil is not expensive, it is commonly used, and it is also used in many incense. Yu Youyao made a lot of them when he was practicing incense mixing, and now there are still a few.
It took less than an hour for Yu Youyao to make the medicinal oil.
The smell of the medicinal oil was very strong. Yu Youyao couldn't bear it, but she still endured the discomfort. She applied some on her back and rubbed it vigorously. Soon, a large area of red appeared on her back, which was spicy and hot.
Nanny Xu nodded: "Exactly."
Yu Youyao breathed a sigh of relief. When making the medicinal oil, she put some spiritual dew into it, and the effect should be good.
After that, Yu Youyao asked Chunxiao and Dongmei to make two pairs of leggings together. They were good at needlework and their feet were nimble. The kneepads did not require any embroidery patterns and could be made quickly.
He also asked Xia Tao and Qiuxing to burn mugwort leaves. Yu Youyao collected the mugwort leaf ashes and made two mugwort leaf ashes medicine packs, which were sewn into the tight-fitting layer of the leggings.
Aunt Xu looked at it and couldn't help but praise: "Sister, what a clever thought. Mugwort ash also has the effect of activating blood circulation, dispelling cold and reducing dampness. Make a medicine bag of mugwort ash and sew it into the leggings. Put it in Grill it on the charcoal fire and tie it to your legs while it's hot. Not only can it warm your legs, but it can also keep it warm for a long time. When it's cold, you can easily replace it with a new one."
Yu Youyao smiled: "My cousin's legs can't stand the moisture. This is like a stove. It's convenient and warm for Mrs. Tang."
Lu and Mrs. Tang couldn’t keep their legs warm all the time. Aunt Xu took it for granted: “The Queen Mother also has old cold disease and can’t stand moisture. I used to teach you some good massage techniques in the palace with the old imperial doctor. Once you learn it, use it together with medicated oil, and the effect will be better."
Yu Youyao’s eyes lit up and she nodded quickly.
Nanny Xu brought over a map of acupuncture points and first taught Yu Youyao to identify the acupuncture points on her legs: "It's mainly about this acupoint. Each acupoint has its own **** method. Different acupuncture points have different **** methods. Each acupuncture point has different **** methods." The time for one stick of incense is optimal. It takes more than half an hour to make one set, which is a bit laborious."
Yu Youyao lifted up her trousers, revealing her bare legs: "Just do it on my legs, and you will know how to handle it."
Nanny Xu nodded and found an acupuncture point on her leg: "There is a method for this place. Press, circle, and press. Take a closer look."
As she said that, Nanny Xu pressed her thumb on this spot, focusing on the acupuncture point, and pressed in circles. After a while, Yu Youyao’s legs became red, and she felt that this spot was a little hot, and then Nanny Xu pressed hard One click.
Yu Youyao suddenly felt a tightness and looseness between her legs, and her whole leg was numb. After it became numb, she felt relaxed again.

Feeling the benefits of massage~IndoMTL.com~ Yu Youyao learned more seriously. She has a photographic memory and can see these simple movements at a glance.
Yu Youyao learned the **** techniques for acupuncture points and the areas that needed attention after she explained them once and did them again.
Yu Youyao thought about it, and then said: "Although Uncle Sun's medical skills are good, when it comes to regulating and replenishing the body, he is not more meticulous than Grandma. Grandma will find me some medicinal recipes, incense, and medicated baths." , foot soaking prescriptions, although these are useless for a while, in the long run, you can see the effect. However, my cousin is still weak and needs to be nourished bit by bit from his daily life. Get up."
But she was thinking in her heart that these things were ineffective, but if she added spiritual dew and used both methods, the effect would be different. As for whether her cousin would notice anything, she didn't think about it.
Nanny Xu naturally agreed, and the two discussed it together.
At this moment, Chunxiao came over: "Miss, the chicken soup with antler and ginseng is ready in the kitchen."
Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
