Cowardly Stepmother Dressed As the Hero

v2 Chapter 84



The microscope does not need to be considered for the time being, but referring to some steps of the “gooseneck flask experiment”, Cao Mi can think of a way.

“I can ask the people below to find two jars for pickling sauerkraut.” After thinking about it, she said, “These jars are much better sealed than other clay pots.

“Put some broth in the first jar, but don’t seal it.

“The second jar is also put into the same amount of broth. After sealing the jar, heat it with a small fire to ensure that the ‘bugs’ have been killed and that there will be no new ‘bugs’. into the jar.

“After a few days, we will be able to compare the difference between the two broths.”

After speaking, she also added: “By the way, it is winter now, and in fact, the broth is hard to deteriorate.

“I can get the people in the kitchen to put the broth in a warm place, simulating a warm climate.”

Her setup is actually quite perfect.

The first portion of the broth would go bad, which Hu Shenyi could predict now, but the handling of the second portion of the broth was indeed a bit novel, he thought about it, nodded and said, “Just follow the princess’s method and try it out. .”

Cao Mi nodded.

The two made an agreement, and Hu Shenyi retired.

He has to keep an eye on Qi You’s situation at all times, and he doesn’t have much free time.

Cao Mi sent him away, so he arranged for someone to go down and prepare the broth according to the method just now.

After giving the order, the third child came over and threw himself into her arms.

Among the three children, he seemed to be the only one who was a little afraid of Cao Mi’s theory about bacteria.

Qi Ran asked, “Mother…is what you said true? Are there little bugs everywhere?”

Cao Mi comforted him and said, “Are you afraid?”

Qi Ran thought for a while, then nodded honestly.

Cao Mi smiled and nodded his nose, comforting: “Actually, you don’t need to worry about it. Do you remember the ant nest you used to pound when you were naughty?”

Qi Ran didn’t know why she brought this up, so she nodded.

“Those little bugs are thousands of times smaller than ants, you can’t even see them.” Cao Mi smiled, “If you are not afraid of ants, why do you need to care about such small things?”

Qi Ran understood, and nodded suddenly: “Yes… smaller than an ant… What’s there to be afraid of?”

After Cao Mi’s solution, he suddenly became enlightened again.

On the night when Qi You had a fever, his body temperature slowly dropped, and then he woke up.

Cao Mi had to praise Hu Shenyi really deserved his reputation.

She persuaded the three children to go back to rest, and she stayed.

Shenyi Hu took the pulse for Qi You who woke up, then his face loosened, and he nodded: “It’s not a big problem, Wang Ye has been recuperating during this period of time, and it will be better after this winter.”

“This winter?” Qi You, who was still very weak when he woke up, frowned, “Will you wait until winter passes?”

Knowing that he was impatient, Shenyi Hu gave him a dissatisfied look: “Yes! You should rest well this winter!

“If you mess around again, next time, I won’t be able to save this old bone!”

Qi You’s face was a little unpleasant, but he rubbed his brows, not daring to refute any more.

Cao Mi hurriedly made a round and said, “Dr. Hu, don’t worry, the mansion will take good care of the lord and prevent him from worrying any more.”

Only then did Divine Doctor Hu feel satisfied, he stroked his beard and nodded.

Afterwards, he packed up his medicine box and went directly to the backyard to supervise the preparation of medicines.

Cao Mi continued to stay, preparing to serve Qi You, who was sick in bed, with his own hands.

She couldn’t do anything before, and now she finally waited until Qi You was out of danger, and she had to do enough to show concern.

Now that Qi You is injured, the charming atmosphere between the two has dissipated a little. Cao Mi took the qi porridge that Dong Li brought from the kitchen, and when he sat down on the edge of the bed, it was like getting along with Qi You on the bed. Husband and wife for many years.

She said warmly to Qi You: “My lord, you should have some porridge first. The people under Dr. Hu are still cooking the medicine. After the porridge is finished, you can drink the medicine.”

Qi You nodded.

Because of the injury, King Bei’an’s food is now all prepared by the kitchen after being instructed by Hu Shenyi.

In the small half-bowl of rice porridge, in addition to common health-preserving ingredients such as wolfberry and lotus seeds, the chef also cut a little diced sweet potato and put it in.

Sweet potatoes are on the sweet side, and the taste is different from rice porridge. After adding it, it not only adds a special sweetness to this bowl of porridge, but also enriches the taste of the porridge.

Cao Mi was used to seeing sweet potatoes in modern times, and she didn’t react for a while. It wasn’t until Qi You asked “what is this” that she realized that King Bei’an had not seen sweet potatoes yet.

So Cao Mi explained: “This is a new type of grain that the villa received this year, called ‘sweet potatoes’. Sweet potatoes are sweet and soft, what do you think of the lord?”

Qi You nodded and said, “Well…not bad.”

Cao Mi breathed a sigh of relief and consciously fooled around.

Speaking of which, in modern times, no one should be injured and need to eat sweet potatoes for the sick patients, right? This thing is too cheap, and everyone doesn’t think it has any nutrition.

But in today’s prosperity it is different.

This year’s sweet potato planting scale is not large, and we have to reserve seeds for next year, so there are not many sweet potatoes sent to the palace.

Rare things are precious, and the cook has always regarded this as an expensive thing that only Cao Mi and his three children can eat.

This time Qi You came back, and she looked for an opportunity, but she added a little bit to this bowl of qi-boosting porridge.

While feeding, Cao Mi remembered something, and said: “Speaking of which, these sweet potatoes are very easy to grow, and they don’t require too much care, and the yield is very high.

“Next year, I will expand the scale of planting a batch in the villa.”

Qi You took a mouthful of porridge, nodded, and waited for the follow-up in her words.

Cao Mi smiled and said, “My lord, I was thinking, or when the spring starts next year, I will send a batch of sweet potato seedlings and pepper seeds to General Lei and ask him to find some soldiers to plant one?

“These things are very good to feed. In the summer of next year, the army can eat the peppers and sweet potatoes they grow.”

Don’t think that Cao Mi’s willingness to send sweet potato seedlings and pepper seeds is an act of generosity.

Since the last time she had a hot pot banquet in Qi Youjun, Lei Li has been thinking about chili peppers, and has asked people to bring messages many times, wanting to purchase.

But Cao Mi couldn’t avoid it—

The people from the palace would send a batch of things to Qi You who stayed in the army every one or two months.

But the production of chili peppers is limited and the price is very expensive. How could Cao Mi receive the money at the original price for the things given to the soldiers?

So she thought about it for a while, and then figured out this method.

Qi You didn’t seem to notice her careful thought. After thinking about it, he nodded and agreed, “Yes.”

Cao Mi resolved a matter, and his mood was much more relaxed.

After serving Qi You, drinking porridge and medicine, and seeing him fall asleep again, she left directly.

Since this day, everything has been as promised by Hu Shenyi, and Qi You can see with the naked eye that he is getting better day by day.

Five days later, it was the day that Cao Mi had agreed with Hu Shenyi.

As the control group, the uncovered broth had deteriorated to such an extent that it exuded an indescribable stench. The kitchen could not stand it two days ago. poured out.

Now, Cao Mi and Hu Shenyi’s attention are all in the sealed jar.

Cao Mi opened the jar with someone, and the broth in the jar was still intact.

Hu Shenyi’s eyes widened, but he couldn’t say a word.

The three children sighed in admiration.

“It’s really not bad!” Qi An moved her head away from the jar, her eyes bright and authentic.

Cao Mi stopped Qi Ran, who even wanted to take a sip, and said with a smile, “Well, it’s natural.”

Seeing Divine Doctor Hu’s complicated face, she deliberately left him some time to think, and then said to him: “Doctor Hu, in fact, I don’t think the existence of ‘little bugs’ is really scary.

“But now that we understand their dangers, should we try to prevent them?”

Influenced by her deliberately guiding words, Hu Shenyi nodded hesitantly.

Cao Mi hit the railway while it was hot: “If that’s the case, why don’t Doctor Hu take advantage of this period of time to stay in the mansion and test out how to prevent it?

“I have heard some methods, such as using wine to kill ‘little bugs’, but I don’t know what kind of wine is needed and how strong it is.

“I hope to have someone as skilled in medicine as you to help. If you can get any results from your research, wouldn’t it be of great merit to the progress of medicine today?”

Cao Mi’s original intention was not to “down” Hu Shenyi, but to gain his support and start to promote some preventive measures about bacteria.

So she didn’t look complacent because she “won”, but put her stance lower.

When Hu Shenyi heard the words, his complexion became radiant again.

He has been pursuing medical theory all his life, and he has already begun to accept Cao Mi’s “bug theory”. At this time, he was shocked by the results of the experiment and then accepted the commission. Naturally, he nodded his head and agreed, “Okay!”

Cao Mi smiled and chatted with him. After chatting for a while, he saw that he had other things to do, so he politely sent him away.

After resolving the matter of Hu Shenyi, on this day, when she went to take care of Qi You as usual, she found that the King of Bei’an, who was staying at home, already knew what happened in the mansion recently.

“…Qi Rui and the others told me, not only your ‘broth experiment’, but also the theory of ‘bugs and cities’.” Qi You’s mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile, “Take my fever. It’s up to the princess to make a fuss about things.”

Cao Mi’s eyes widened, and he was almost frightened by him: “My lord… this, I’m just discussing the matter, and I don’t mean to offend the lord.”

Qi You nodded: “I know.”

He has recovered very well in the past few days, and he has more strength to speak.

He said: “Your so-called ‘broth experiment’ is actually full of flaws. Did heating really burn the ‘bugs’ in the soup? Is it possible that other factors have been changed to prevent the broth from spoiling. ?

“Shen Doctor Hu probably couldn’t think of any other better explanation for the time being, so he was detoured by you.”

Of course, Cao Mi knew that his experiments were not rigorous.

But she had traveled from modern times, and naturally knew that things about bacteria were absolutely true.

At this time, when Qi You pointed out the flaws, Cao Mi asked helplessly: “My lord also thinks what I said is to fool the children?”

Qi You thought for a while and said, “I don’t know either.

“But this one, you did a good job.

“Shenyi Hu is obsessed with medical skills and likes to travel around to collect all kinds of strange cases. I have saved him before, so I can contact him. But I tried to recruit him several times, but he refused.

“Now that you use this as an excuse to keep him, it is a good thing for you and me, and for the entire palace.”

Cao Mi was not diverted by him, and continued to say angrily: “I have a better way to prove the existence of ‘little bugs’. If you don’t believe it, just wait.”

“What are you waiting for?” Qi You was a little surprised.

Cao Mi said proudly, “Wait until I let my subordinates make the glass … transparent glass.”

“Why wait?” Qi You raised his eyebrows.

Before Cao Mi could answer, he continued, “Do you want transparent glass? This king has it in his hands.”
