After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 248: Trichosanthes almond hand cream, simple and convenient for the people

"Does our clinic have any ointment to relieve dry skin?"

Xiaoqiang shook his head:

"There are only some medicines for wound care, not the one you mentioned."

Ah Wen, who was checking the medicine box, turned around and said, "Doctor Ding, although there is no ointment, there is a prescription."

Ding Xirui smiled and became excited. "Where is it?"

"Please wait a moment." Ah Wen searched under the counter for a while and took out a stack of recipes. Sour plum soup, chrysanthemum seedling porridge, black chicken soup... all of them are medicinal foods.

"I found it, Doctor Ding, do you think this will work?"

Ding Xirui took the prescription and asked, "Can these be sold to people outside?"

"Yes. Sometimes it is given to patients for free to help them replenish their bodies, and sometimes it is sold to restaurants for a small amount of money. This hand cream was written by Doctor Zhang when the owner of the rouge shop came."

"Young Madam, let's try it ourselves." Banxia came over with shining eyes.

“Hahaha, we can give it a try.”

"Trichosanthes, honey, almonds...are these the only ingredients needed?" Ding Xirui looked at the recipe and felt it was a bit too simple.

"Doctor Ding, it seems that there was another one at that time, but it was bought by the boss at a high price." Awen thought for a while and continued.

"Yes, that's true." Xiaoqiang also nodded.

"Oh~" Ding Xirui suddenly realized that it must be because special materials and special production methods were needed, so it was "bought out".

"No problem, we'll just make this 'civilian' version, which is cheap and available to everyone."

They took some dried Trichosanthes, went out to buy some almonds, and got some honey from the kitchen. Then they went to the backyard and started tinkering.

Put the dried Trichosanthes kirilowii in a small mortar, mash it first, then slowly mash it into fine powder. Crush the dried almonds in the same way. Take one part almond powder and two parts Trichosanthes kirilowii powder, mix them thoroughly, then add a spoonful of honey and stir evenly. A portion of hand cream is ready.

The brown paste had a sweet smell, like some kind of dessert.

"Banxia, ​​you try it." Ding Xirui said.

"Then I'll go wash my hands first." Banxia ran to the well excitedly.

Use a small scraper to pick up some, put it on the back of your hand, then rub it evenly and wait quietly.

"Leave it on for half a minute and then wash it off."

"it is good."

Taking this opportunity, Ding Xirui also cleaned his hands and applied a layer.

Medical books say that Trichosanthes can remove wrinkles on the hands and moisturize the face. Adding almonds and mixing with pig pancreas can whiten the skin. Nowadays, just mash it, add some almonds and honey, and you can protect your hands. Plants are really magical.

"Young Madam, it's really troublesome for us to just wait like this."

"Hahaha, I've been busy today, so I'll just take a break. But it would be great if we could make some hand cream like facial cream, so that we can apply it without delaying our work."

"Yes, who would have nothing to do all day long and take care of their hands?"

Ding Xirui smiled slightly and looked up at the sky. There might be many such people. The ladies and wives of wealthy families and the women in the palace all have plenty of time to take care of themselves. However, are they taking care of themselves for themselves or for men?

Awen came running over with a piece of paper in his hand.

"Doctor Ding, I found another prescription." As he said this, he spread the prescription in front of Ding Xirui.

"Dog brain, sheep brain, cow brain... Angelica sinensis, Chuanxiong, Magnolia officinalis... Peach kernel, almond, jujube..." Ding Xirui widened his eyes and read it again.

"Doctor Ding, this seems difficult to do." Awen scratched his head.

"Yes, the brains of three animals alone are enough to overwhelm us, and we also need so many medicinal herbs, all of which need to be soaked in wine. Let's just forget it." Ding Xirui shook his head.

"Yes, Trichosanthes kirilowii is better. It's convenient and cheap. Hehe, I would rather wait a quarter of an hour." Banxia said with a smile.

"Thank you, Awen. I'll keep this recipe for now. Maybe the owner of the rouge shop will buy it in the future."

"Okay, then I'll put it away." Awen picked up the prescription and went back to the main hall.

The time was almost up and the paste on their hands had completely dried, so they washed their hands, wiped them clean, and looked at them carefully.

"Madam, I feel like my hands are turning white."

"Not so fast. But it's wet now and feels more comfortable than before."

"My hands smell so good, I don't even want to work anymore."

"Tsk, we still have to do it. We can apply it before going to bed next time."

They went to the front hall and got two small jars for ointment. They put the remaining hand ointment in them and covered them with lids. One jar was placed in the clinic so that everyone could use it, and the other jar was put in the purse and taken home.

As the sun sets, the wall casts a long shadow, and the yard becomes cooler. The breath of autumn is getting stronger and stronger. When the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, I will bring some to the Lin family and the Ding family, Ding Xirui silently planned in his heart.

On the afternoon of the second day, several people went to Zhang's house together. Since Lin Mingxuan came to the clinic, Mr. Zhang only went there every few days, giving Xiaoqiang and others questions to read and practice. On weekdays, he rested at home. He was very happy to see Lin Mingxuan and others coming.

After exchanging some pleasantries, the few of them began to discuss the issues of cerebral hemorrhage and stroke.

Mr. Zhang put on his hat, leaned on a cane, and spoke with a trembling voice:

"If it is hyperactivity of liver yang, irritability and anger, it is better to use Tianma Gou Teng Yin first; if it is phlegm, it is better to clear phlegm and dredge the meridians first... Some people are usually listless and have weak qi, so they need to replenish qi and activate blood circulation."

"Yeah." Lin Mingxuan nodded and wrote down the words one by one with a charcoal pencil.

"Doctor Zhang, if someone suddenly has an attack, besides pressing the heart acupoints and applying acupuncture on the head, are there any other ways to treat it?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Acupuncture the Qiduan acupoint to squeeze out the blood clots."
