Xichun, the first daughter of the Red Chamber

When Xichun came to visit Lin Daiyu, she was drinking medicine, and when she saw her, she smiled directly, "You come to my place every day, so you don't have to worry about getting sick."

Xichun smiled and squeezed a candied fruit and threw it into her mouth, "Don't be afraid! I'm in good health!"

Lin Daiyu glared at her, "You even snatched something belonging to a patient of mine?"

Xichun was surprised: "Didn't sister Lin invite me to eat?"

As she said that, Xichun said with a smile on her face: "I'm so sad, the friendship with my sister for so many years can't even compare to a candied fruit, I still remember that time..."

Lin Daiyu couldn't help it, pinched a candied fruit and threw it at her, "What nonsense are you talking about? Be careful, I'll tell Nanny Shang and the others."

Xichun sideways dodged the candied fruit, and stopped pretending to be weird, "Sister Lin, why did you learn from the second sister!"

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "Otherwise, how can I stop you, a cunning little fellow?!"

Laughing, Lin Daiyu coughed.

Xichun hurriedly stepped forward to cheer her up, "Blame me, I shouldn't have teased you."

Lin Daiyu's cheeks flushed slightly as she coughed, "What are you doing wrong? I already have a bad cough."

Xichun frowned, "I've been taking this prescription for a long time, why doesn't it work at all?"

Lin Daiyu gently held her hand, "It is said that sickness comes like a mountain and goes away like a thread, how can it be so fast? Didn't the imperial doctor say that too? I just broke out from the previous fatigue, and I am not acclimatized. Take it slow."

Xichun said: "Even if you raise it slowly, it should have an effect. I think these days are not as good as before."

Lin Daiyu shook her head, "You think too much."

Lin Daiyu really doesn't think there's anything wrong with it. When she was a child, she often took medicine as a meal but it didn't work. Now she just thinks it's normal. Xichun cares too much about herself.

Xichun pointed it out when eating, "Look, you eat less now than before!"

Even Jia Min laughed this time, "Your elder sister Lin took the medicine, so naturally she ate less food."

Xichun thought for a while and said, "Then why don't you ask the imperial physician to give Sister Lin some medicine to invigorate the spleen and stomach, otherwise it's not good if you can't eat all the time."

Jia Min knew that Xichun had learned some medical skills, so she also followed her at this time, "Okay, when the imperial doctor comes, I will tell him."

After lunch, Lin Daiyu was about to take a nap. Seeing that Xichun was not going to leave, she asked her, "I'm sleeping, and it's boring for you to stay alone. Do you want to ask the maids to accompany you to chat?"

Xichun shook her head, "I'm not a child anymore, I don't need anyone to accompany me, I brought my own books, I'll just read them later."

Lin Daiyu squinted her eyes and looked at her, "But what trouble did you get into again, and ran away to hide from me?"

Xichun dissatisfied: "Am I that kind of person? I am obviously worried about Sister Lin..."

The rest of the words disappeared in Lin Daiyu's smile.

Xichun said frankly: "Nurse told me to learn to read the account books, I got a headache from learning, so I ran out."

The current account book is still a fish-scale account book. Xichun bit the bullet and studied for a few days, but he was defeated. He couldn't even read it, let alone see where there was a problem.

Lin Daiyu chuckled, "You ran away from the monk to the temple? You'd better go back obediently."

Thinking of the faces of the two nuns when they left today, Xichun shuddered, "...I'd better wait until their anger subsides before I go back."

Lin Daiyu smiled deeper, "It's not difficult to read the account book, just find the rules and do some calculations. When I recover from illness, I will teach you."

Xichun's eyes lit up.

Lin Daiyu yawned, "Okay, I'm going to sleep, you can do whatever you want."

Xichun hummed, took out the medical books she had brought, and read slowly.

After a while, Xichun turned her head to look, and found that Lin Daiyu hadn't fallen asleep yet, and was staring at her sideways.

Xichun was so frightened that she leaned back and almost fell off the stool.

Lin Daiyu sighed and asked if she was okay.

Xichun patted his chest and said, "Aren't you asleep?"

Lin Daiyu frowned and said, "Maybe it's because I used too much for lunch, and my stomach is a little bloated."

used more...

Xichun looked at Lin Daiyu speechlessly.

Lin Daiyu turned over, "But now I feel much better, I really fell asleep."

Xichun began to read the book again, and after reading two lines, Lin Daiyu said again: "That's right."

Startled, Xichun turned to look at Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu didn't turn around, and still turned her back to her, "I forgot to mention just now, Fourth Sister also looks somewhat reliable when she calms down."

Xichun: "..."

After Xichun went back that night, she was warmly welcomed by the two nuns, and she couldn't go out for a few days, so Xichun had no choice but to obediently learn the account book.

When it was almost rumored that Lin Ruhai was detained and was about to be taken to the capital for trial, Xichun was finally let out by the two nuns.

Xichun went to Lin Daiyu's place first, but she saw that Lin Daiyu's illness was getting worse and she lost a lot of weight.

Xichun became anxious, "Why are you so sick?"

Lin Daiyu still smiled, "I don't have a good appetite these days, if I eat less, it doesn't look good."

Xichun asked: "Have you seen the imperial physician? Have you added medicinal materials to strengthen the spleen and stomach? If you can't eat, maybe the medicine spoiled your appetite. Have you changed the prescription? Or stopped the medicine for a while?"

The maid at the side said: "Additionally, the imperial doctor also changed the prescription, but the young lady couldn't eat after taking it, and said she still didn't feel hungry."

Lin Daiyu said: "Don't worry, I know what's in my heart, and it's not like I can't eat at all, I'm still using snacks, and I look good."

Xichun thought for a while, then whispered to Lin Daiyu: "Is sister Lin worried about Uncle Lin? I asked my father, and my father told me not to worry, saying that these are just rumors outside."

Lin Daiyu was moved, "Thank you."

Xichun said: "If you really want to thank me, you should get better soon."

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "Okay."

When Xichun noticed it during the meal, Lin Daiyu really couldn't eat after eating with only two chopsticks, and she even touched her belly to say that she was not hungry.

Xichun also sighed when she saw this, and thought about persuading Jia Min to show Lin Daiyu another imperial doctor, otherwise Lin Daiyu would not be able to hold on because she couldn't eat like this.

After Xichun went back, she was also worried, so she ran to ask Qi Po.

After hearing this, Qi Po asked about Lin Daiyu's situation. Xichun remembered all these things, and after she told Lin Daiyu's situation in detail, Qi Po frowned after hearing this, "According to the county lord, this prescription is right for the disease. , Ms. Lin should feel better after eating."

Xichun nodded, "I've seen the medicine I've caught and the medicine that's been brewed, and it's all right."

Qipo pondered, "Then it shouldn't be, even if the medicine doesn't work, it shouldn't be the symptom."

Seventh Po finally made a final decision: "If Miss Lin trusts me, I'll go and see for myself tomorrow."

Xichun nodded, "Sister Lin will definitely agree!" Immediately let Lidong go to Rongguo Mansion to talk to Jia Min and Lin Daiyu.

Lidong came back soon and said that they agreed.

Xichun still thinks about this before going to bed at night, and runs to Qi Po's when they get together the next day, "Qi Po, ginseng! Ginseng!"

Qipo was taken aback for a moment, and then realized, "You mean that there is something wrong with ginseng, no, it's because ginseng is so good!"

Qi Po said: "In this way, Miss Lin's situation is right."

Xichun nodded frantically, Qi Po smiled and said to Xichun: "You young people still have brains, but these are all our conjectures, let's talk about it after reading it."

Xichun and Qipo went to Lin Daiyu's place, Qipo felt the pulse first, then asked about the recent situation, and then said to Lin Daiyu: "Miss Lin, can you lie down and let the servant palpate?"

Lin Daiyu nodded, and after lying down, Qi Po gently pressed Lin Daiyu's abdomen. Before Qi Po could exert much force, Lin Daiyu frowned and cried out for pain.

Jia Min also frowned, and asked Qi Po if there was something wrong.

The seventh lady nodded, and asked Lin Daiyu if she felt her stomach swelled after taking the medicine and didn't want to eat.

Lin Daiyu nodded, Qi Po didn't continue, but let Lin Daiyu have a good rest, and walked out of the room. Jia Min became anxious at this moment, and asked Qi Po in a low voice if there was something wrong with the medicine.

The seventh lady said that she had to read the prescription and medicinal materials before talking.

Jia Min immediately asked someone to fetch the prescription and the prepared medicine.

The seventh lady looked at it carefully, and even tasted some medicinal materials, and finally said to Jia Min: "Miss Lin's prescription and medicinal materials are all right, and even said, it's great."

Jia Min said in a daze, "Isn't that good?"

Seventh Po first picked up the prescription, "This prescription is prescribed rigorously, and the dosage is obviously well thought out. Every medicine must be too much or too little. Ms. Lin takes the medicine according to the prescription, and it should be effective."

"These medicinal materials are also high-quality medicinal materials, which can maximize the ability to treat diseases."

Jia Min wondered, "Then why is my Yu'er..."

Qi Po took out the ginseng and put it in front of Jia Min, "Because of this."

"Mrs. Lin must also understand that ginseng is great for strengthening vitality and can even hang one's life in a critical moment. Therefore, many people think that ginseng can cure all diseases, but they don't know that not everyone is suitable for eating ginseng." Qi Po slowly He said: "It's like a box is already full of clothes. If the clothes are stuffed in again, the box will be broken. Therefore, medical practitioners don't use ginseng easily, and even if they use it, they must pay attention to the year."

Jia Min nodded, "I also know this. Yu'er took medicines to invigorate her body when she was young. Every time those doctors prescribed ginseng, they repeatedly told us to use ginseng of ordinary years..."

Jia Min's face changed suddenly.

Seeing that Jia Min understood, Qi Po sighed: "The ginseng in these medicinal materials is at least ten years old."

With every copy, it can't be an accident.

Jia Min took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and asked Qi Po, "Dare to ask Qi Po, does the imperial doctor who prescribed this prescription have anything to do with this?"

Qipo looked at the prescription, "I can't say for certain, after all, no one can pick the wrong prescription after seeing it."

"However," Qi Po's eyes shifted to ginseng again, "if it were me, I would replace ginseng with dangshen."

Jia Min also looked at Ginseng, his eyes were full of anger, "I see, thank you Qi Po."

Qi Po waved her hand, "Healers are parents' hearts, and if the county magistrate hadn't thought of this problem first, I'm afraid it would take a few days for me to find out."

Hearing Qipo mention Xichun, Jia Min also softened a little, "The county lord is a good boy, Yu'er is lucky to meet her."

Xichun, who was talking to Lin Daiyu inside, didn't know that in the eyes of Jia Min now, she had been promoted to Lin Daiyu's lucky star.
