Mama Zhao helped Sandy Shen lie down and said, "Princess, don't worry. I'll go to the drug store to check it. Then we'll know what's wrong with the medicine."
As soon as she turned around, Sandy closed her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "No. Is there monkshood and peach kernel in it?"
Mama Zhao didn't know anything about medicine, but she knew the words. After looking at the prescription, she was shocked. "How do you know, Princess? There are these two kinds of medicine."
Sandy said subconsciously, "I tasted it." After saying that, she was curious. How could she know what kind of medicine it was? Had she learned medical science before?
She didn't know much about traditional Chinese medicine in modern times.
But now Sandy spoke it out as soon as she tasted it. She thought for a while and knew the effect of these two medicines.
Not to mention others, even she underestimated the Princess.
Sandy was surprised. The Silly Princess not only had good health but also knew a lot. Who taught her?
If there were no monkshood and peach kernel, the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician was used to prevent miscarriage.
However, these two kinds of medicine could promote blood circulation, but drinking these two medicines too much would have the risk of miscarriage.
Judging from Sandy's reaction, Mama Zhao knew that the medicines were not good for her health.
Mama Zhao didn't know what to do at this moment, saying, "Next time when I go to get medicine, I won't get these two kinds of medicine."
Sandy said calmly, "No. In case of suspicion, you continue to take medicine according to the prescription. Move the herbal pot to my yard from tomorrow on. You can boil it after I pick out the two flavors. "
"Okay."
On the second day, Mama Zhao excused that the weather was cold and moved the medicine stove to decoct medicine in the yard nearby.
Sandy picked out the monkshood and peach kernel in advance. She thought it was a pity to throw away, so she made them into powder separately. Maybe they would be useful in the future.
But she didn't expect that these medicines were put to good use so soon.
Sandy soon got morning sickness and couldn't eat anything all day long due to her medical reason.
She needed something to nourish her body.
Sandy thought of the tonic and medicinal materials sent by Stellan, so she asked Mama Zhao to take some.
Unexpectedly, Mama Zhao came back with nothing but anger.
Seeing Mama Zhao's expression, Sandy asked, "What's wrong?"
"The people in charge of the storehouse didn't want to give the medicine to Princess at all. They say that Princess is too weak to eat those tonics, and it's better to leave them to Lady Liu."
Sandy's face darkened. "Did you ask him if he knows how to spell "shameless"?"
"I didn't ask." With a solemn smile, Mama Zhao continued, "When I passed the kitchen, I saw Daisy bringing a cup of stewed edible bird's nest to Lady Liu."
Daisy was Emma's maid. Sandy remembered that it was Daisy who scratched her face with the hairpin at that time.
Sandy then calmed herself down and lay on the lounge chair to bask in the sun.
The spring sun shone on her body, making her feel warm.
Sandy closed her eyes for rest. After a while, she said, "Who said that I couldn't get nutrition?"
Mama Zhao stood aside in silence and said, "The people in the warehouse said that the general said it."
Sandy smiled and asked, "Is General at home now?"
"Yes."
"Then he must have heard that you went to the storehouse just now. I think he will call a doctor to treat me soon. "
As expected, footsteps came from outside as soon as she finished speaking.
Even the things sent by Stellan were valuable, which were rare even in the General's Mansion. Stellan must have spent a lot of effort to get them.
The cubilose that Emma would eat every two days was one of the holy food in the palace.
Mama Zhao could recognize the cubilose because when the old lady was still alive, the emperor had rewarded her.
Mama Zhao said Emma looked good and radiant these days after taking the tonic. No wonder Hercule wanted to leave all the good things to her.
It was cruel and kindless for Hercules to keep all the things Stellan gave to Sandy and didn't give her anything.
The woman who came was Daisy.
