You are my golden finger

Before the first ray of morning sunlight penetrated the clouds, the Lin family's usual morning exercise began, facing the soft breeze filled with the faint fragrance of flowers.

Several children, Ye Jinlin, the guards, the secret guards, Chuntao, Qiuyan, and the newcomer He Qiumei all went to the lawn and ran, did horse stances, and practiced martial arts as usual...

"As everyone knows, we were intercepted on the way to the manor yesterday because someone had set his eyes on our family's medicine recipe. Now I have two requests: First, you must pay special attention to safety in the future, and you children should not go out without your company. Second, practice martial arts diligently and improve your skills so that you can protect yourself and your family in the future." Lin Xijin warned everyone.

Then he distributed the pills he made last night to everyone, one pill for adults and half a pill for children. Except for the secret guards, everyone threw them into their mouths like eating candy beans. The pills melted in their mouths and went into their stomachs immediately.

The secret guard took the pill and took it immediately. He smelled the pill and a refreshing fragrance came to his nose. He knew it was a good thing. He immediately knelt on one knee and saluted: "Thank you, master!"

After thanking Lin Xijin, the two swallowed the medicine and sat in meditation on the spot. A warm current surged out from their dantian in the abdomen and flowed to their limbs and bones along with the breath.

When the others saw what the two secret guards were doing, they followed their example, with Lin Xijin giving them instructions from the side.

Except for He Qiumei who didn't know how to do it, everyone followed Lin Xijin's breathing. After sitting down for a while, everyone was sweating profusely and the smell was overwhelming.

Everyone looked at each other, and could see the disgust in each other's eyes.

"Stinky!" Jin'an also smelled the smell on his body with disgust.

"Go back and wash up." Following Lin Xijin's order, everyone scattered.

"Thank you, master!" The two secret guards saluted again, then disappeared in the distance with a few leaps.

A few people were having breakfast when the housekeeper came with a letter saying that the general had invited them to have a chat.

Lin Xijin thought that she should indeed pay a visit to the general's residence, so she asked the butler to reply and go there later.

After all, she was not that familiar with the people in the general's mansion, so she did not bring a few children this time. Lin Xijin picked up some precious medicinal materials and finished medicines such as Yangxin Dan, a few cans of wine, a few bags of tea, and some high-quality fruits that were rarely seen on the market, and asked Liang Derong to drive, and she took Chuntao with her.

Mrs. Wu was already waiting at the door to greet them. She looked at the pile of gifts that Lin Xijin brought and scolded her for being so reserved. But Lin Xijin's gifts really touched her heart, and she was extremely happy.

The General's Mansion is magnificent, with lush flowers and trees and lush greenery.

Before entering the women's reception room, I saw an old lady waiting with a dragon-headed cane.

The old lady was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and her expression was heroic. Nobility and majesty were harmoniously displayed on her. But it was not difficult to see that she was a bit sick.

Lin Xijin quickly stepped forward and bowed to the old lady as a junior.

"Miss Lin, I am glad to see you at last. I never thought that you are so skilled in medicine at such a young age. Thank you for saving my wife and grandson. I have been taking the Yangxin Pills that my son brought back from you, and I feel much stronger now. Our whole family would like to thank you!"

"Madam, you are too polite. It's just a small favor. I don't deserve your thanks!"

"From now on, I will be more generous and call you 'Jin'er', and you can call me 'Grandma Wu'!" Madam Wu said eagerly, holding Lin Xijin's hand.

"Grandma Wu, this is Jin'er's blessing."

Lin Xijin knew that these people treated her with such courtesy, partly because of her medical skills, but partly because of their own kindness. So she did not dislike the goodwill shown by the General's Mansion and accepted it naturally.

Several people were chatting while drinking tea.

"Jin'er, I heard that you were in danger on your way to the manor yesterday."

"It's nothing serious. I just encountered a few people who were intercepting me. They asked for my prescription for the medicine, but I beat them away."

"Jin'er, you are a little girl, you should pay attention to your safety. I will give you two secret guards to follow you and let them protect you. We also have retired veterans. Do you want to arrange a few to watch over your house?"

Lin Xijin was short of manpower, so she naturally agreed.

Madam Wu talked about the arrangements for the veterans with a little melancholy. The court did not provide any way out for the retired veterans, especially the disabled veterans. They returned to their hometowns with a meager amount of resettlement money, and the disabled could only be supported by the general's mansion, and their lives were really difficult.

"Grandma Wu, I grow herbs, make medicine, brew wine, and transport supplies in the countryside. I need some manpower. If anyone is willing to go, I can arrange some."

"That's great! I'll ask around and arrange for it to be delivered to you."

Madam Wu had originally arranged for the two secret guards and two veterans. Lin Xijin accompanied the old lady and Madam Wu to dinner, helped the old lady with pulse diagnosis and acupuncture, and agreed to come back to help her with treatment tomorrow before taking the four of them home.

He also gave each of the four people a pill, asked the butler to arrange their accommodation, and took them downstairs to introduce themselves to the original guards and secret guards, and negotiate daily guard arrangements.

Tonight is still a moonlit night. Lin Xijin is sitting on the roof with a group of children sitting side by side with her.

"Sister, is there really a Chang'e in the moon?" Jin'an asked.

"Does Jin An think so?"

"I don't know. I want to practice my kung fu and fly up to see if there is anything." Jin'an answered shamelessly.

The moonlight sprinkled like water, and on the moonlit grass, several meditating figures leaped up, some twirled and turned like dragons, and some were punching and kicking, with a loud noise.

Lin Xijin held Jin'an in her arms and floated down from the roof like a fairy, and Jin'an screamed with excitement.

"Fly, fly, fly." This moment became his obsession.

Seeing Lin Xijin approaching, several people knelt on one knee and saluted, saying loudly: "Thank you, Master, for your grace of giving us a new life."

It turned out that these people were secret guards, veterans, and guards who were practicing martial arts after taking Lin Xijin's elixir. With the foundation of martial arts and the assistance of elixir, their martial arts progress was naturally rapid.

“No need to be polite, just be more attentive in the future.”

A few little ones couldn't help themselves and started practicing with a hum and a laugh. Lin Xijin was too lazy to care and just let them do what they wanted.
