"Brother Cheng, you drank so much, is it okay?"

"It's okay. I've been practicing martial arts for many years, so I can still tolerate a little bit of alcohol. Just walk a few steps in the garden and the effect will go away."

"In that case... I'll walk with Brother Cheng."

This was the first time Xue Baochai and Lu Cheng were alone together. Every time they met before, other sisters were present and everyone was very lively, so they didn't think it was a big deal.

Now, the two of them were walking in the garden, one in front and one behind. Xue Baochai, who was usually talkative, suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Sister Xue, I think Wenlong doesn't seem to have much remorse after this incident. I think Aunt Xue is usually too indulgent, which is not a good thing. I know that sister is a knowledgeable and thoughtful person, so I should give her more advice in the future."

"Thank you for your advice, Brother Cheng. I also know this, but..."

"I can understand Sister Xue's difficulties. Although Sister Xue is young, she is thoughtful and kind to others, and everyone in the Jia family praises her. However, this is originally the responsibility that your brother should have taken on, but it fell on your shoulders, which is really difficult for you, sister."

Hearing this, Xue Baochai's heart surged, and she felt a sense of confidant. To be honest, if her brother could shoulder the responsibility of the family, why would she have to be so kind to others?

The family situation was already deteriorating, and now they had to live under someone else's roof, so Xue Baochai had to be kind to everyone. Even when dealing with servants and maids, she was always careful, for fear of offending any of them.

How could it be easy for a teenage girl to live with a mask on all day long?

It's a pity that Xue Baochai has to live with such a family: a father who died early, a doting mother, an unpromising brother, and she who has to strive for success.

When Xue Baochai thought about the situation at home and the responsibilities she had shouldered over the years, she felt a little sad. When she looked up at Lu Cheng, she felt that his eyes were getting gentler. Like a ray of warm sunshine, it broke through the cold winter and fell into her heart.

"Brother Cheng seems to be very good at comforting people."

"It's just that I have more experience."

Xue Baochai couldn't help but think of Lu Cheng's background when she heard this. This young and famous talent lost his parents when he was young and was abducted and sold. His experience was indeed rough.

Despite such a rough experience, he did not fall into despair. Instead, it made him into a gentle and elegant man.

When Xue Baochai thought of this, she suddenly felt that she and the person in front of her seemed to have more in common, and the distance between them seemed to have shortened. She was unconsciously happy.

However, Baochai did not know that the experiences Lu Cheng described were not the hardships of his youth, but the vicissitudes of the past thousands of years.

As they were talking, the two of them unconsciously moved closer to each other, and Lu Cheng smelled a faint floral scent coming from Xue Baochai.

Just at this moment, Xue Baocha suddenly coughed a few times and became a little breathless.

"Sister Xue, do you have internal heat? Do you often take pills made from several kinds of flower stamens?"

"Hey, how did Brother Cheng know? I have had this disease since I was a child. I used to take medicine frequently, but it never got better. Until later I met a bald monk who prescribed me a recipe. Since I used this recipe, my health has improved a lot, and I rarely get sick anymore."

"Sister Xue has a strong floral scent, which seems to have the aroma of hibiscus, peony, lotus, and plum blossom. This medicine must be very unusual, and the preparation should be quite complicated."

"Brother Cheng can actually see all this? He is indeed extraordinary. I have long heard that Brother Cheng has the ability to bring the dead back to life. It seems that his reputation is well-deserved. This medicine is not particularly expensive, but it is rare by chance.

You need 12 liang of spring white peony stamens, 12 liang of summer white lotus stamens, 12 liang of autumn white hibiscus stamens, and 12 liang of winter white plum stamens. Collect all four kinds of stamens, wait until the spring equinox of the following year to dry them in the sun, grind them into powder and put them together with the medicine foam for later use. After that, collect 12 qian of rainwater on the Rain Water Day, 12 qian of dew on the White Dew Day, qian of frost on the Frost Descent Day, and qian of snow on the Minor Snow Day..."

"It may not rain on the Rain Water day, and it may not frost on the Frost Descent day. It is indeed difficult to prepare this medicine. If Sister Xue trusts me, I can diagnose it for you. Maybe there is another way to completely eliminate the root cause of the disease."

"Will this... be too much trouble for Brother Cheng?"

"What's the big deal? It's just a little more work. I'm actually a little curious about my sister's condition."

"In that case, I'll have to trouble Brother Cheng."

Afterwards, the two came to Lixiang Garden and went to Xue Baochai's study.

Lu Cheng made a detailed diagnosis of Xue Baochai and determined that her condition was related to congenital asthma in later generations, but it was somewhat different. This condition was caused by excessive heart fire and damp heat in the lungs, and was also related to psychological factors.

After the diagnosis, Lu Cheng said, "I have a general idea of ​​the situation. I will write a prescription and prepare some medicine for my sister to take care of her. However, this kind of disease should not be worried too much. If you are depressed and overworked, it will easily worsen the condition.

If Sister Xue has any worries in the future, she can talk to the sisters. If there is no one to talk to, she can vent it out on paper. "

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Cheng."

Afterwards, Lu Cheng wrote a prescription and told Xue Baochai and her maid Ying'er the usage, dosage and precautions in detail.

Afterwards, Lu Cheng did not stay in Lixiangyuan any longer and got up to say goodbye and leave.

Xue Baochai then sent Lu Cheng to the gate of the courtyard. In order to avoid the servants and maids seeing him and gossiping about him, she couldn't send him too far.

Seeing Lu Cheng leaving, Ying'er couldn't help but say, "This Mr. Cheng really cares about the young lady."

"You're asking me to be nosy? Why don't you go get the medicine?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Wait, I'll rewrite the recipe for you."

After Ying'er left with the prescription she had copied, Xue Baochai put away the prescription written by Lu Cheng himself and stared out the window blankly, wondering what she was thinking about.

After leaving Lixiangyuan, Lu Cheng came to the courtyard where Daiyu lived.

Before entering the room, I heard the voices of Wang Xifeng and Lin Daiyu talking in the room.

"Sister Lin, Aunt Xue's family matters this time are really thanks to Brother Cheng's help. Aunt Xue and the others really should treat Brother Cheng well. I think Brother Cheng should come over after he finishes drinking over there."

At this moment, Zijuan shouted, "Master Cheng is coming."

Wang Xifeng couldn't help but joked, "Here it is, it's here just as I said it would be."

Lin Daiyu wanted to stand up to greet her, but when she looked at Wang Xifeng who was present, she sat back down a little embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, your calculations are really accurate."

"I can't predict this for sure, but I know that Brother Cheng is always thinking about his sister Lin, and he wants to be with her every day."

Lu Cheng opened the curtain, walked into the room, and said loudly: "What are you talking about? You look so happy."

"Just when we were talking about Brother Cheng, he arrived." After a period of recuperation recently, Wang Xifeng has recovered. She seems to have gotten over the previous blow and her mental state has improved a lot.

Then, Zijuan brought a bowl of hangover soup: "Master Cheng, this is what the young lady asked the kitchen to prepare a long time ago."
