A life of ups and downs is pure joy

Chapter 19 The Frightened Young Medical Saint

Early in the morning, Chuxia asked Lixue to take the maids in the yard to the Drum Tower and West Street to buy cakes and medicinal herbs that Lin Mo needed. Nanny Zhou was also invited by Chuxia's mother to have cold wine. Lin Mo changed into the doctor's clothes that had been prepared long ago, covered his face with a gauze scarf, and pretended to sit in front of the bed to take Lin Qinghuan's pulse before Yu Xiaoyu came.

"Do you have an appointment with a female doctor today? Then I'll come another day." Xiao Yu walked in and saw Lin Mo, and was about to leave.

"Sir, please stay. I'm here to feel the eldest girl's pulse. I heard the fifth girl's pulse is unusually disordered, so I came here to see the world. I dare not bother you with a consultation. Please step forward and feel her pulse."

Lin Mo stood up and spoke in a low voice.

When Xiao Yu walked into the inner room, Lin Mo stood nervously at the end of the bed. Lin Qinghuan could feel a hint of uneasiness in her through the curtains. Xiao Yu sat in front of the bed and took her pulse through the gauze scarf as usual.

"What do you think of Miss Lin's pulse?" Xiao Yu suddenly looked at Lin Mo and asked.

Lin Mo was silent for a while and said, "The disordered pulse has become stable again, just like a breeze blowing but waves rolling on the water. Maybe it's because of the medicine given by the master." Lin Mo said something that Lin Qinghuan couldn't understand, but Xiao Yu acted as if he understood it.

"So do you think my prescription is suitable for Miss Lin?" Xiao Yu asked with interest.

"It's fierce and has miraculous effects. It doesn't matter whether it's suitable or not if you dare to use this prescription. After all, the Fifth Miss's body is overdrawn. If it works miraculously, she will be cured. If it doesn't work, there will be no worse outcome." I finally understood what he said. This so-called Medicine Saint was taking a gamble.

"Let's try it out!" Lin Qinghuan couldn't help but complain. Xiao Yu really didn't expect that someone who never spoke would actually say this. Everyone fell silent in awkward silence.

"Gentlemen, please have some tea." Chu Xia saw the opportunity and brought over two cups of tea, breaking the awkward situation. Lin Mo quickly took the cup.

"Miss Lin Er's medical skills should be inherited from Fairy Tao." Xiao Yu said casually as he opened nine acupuncture boxes that had never been taken out before.

Lin Mo's hand holding the cup began to exert force unconsciously, and his face behind the scarf turned red and white. After calming down, he replied, "Senior Brother, please forgive me for laughing, but how do you know who I am?"

"Second Miss Lin, the female doctors at Shenlu Hall don't wear veils. Most importantly, besides my master and I, the only people in the world who know this recipe are Fairy Tao and her descendants." Xiao Yu said, then he took out a silver needle from the acupuncture box and wiped it with the medical cloth in his hand. "I heard that your daughter fainted a while ago. How long did she faint for?"

"Sir, he will be fine when he wakes up in about two days," Chu Xia replied.

"Miss Lin, what did you feel when you fainted?" Lin Qinghuan had been nervously watching the silver needle in his hand through the curtain. Was this guy going to prick himself with the needle? So when he asked, Lin Qinghuan didn't react at all.

"Miss, are you asleep?" Chu Xia saw that her girl didn't answer for a long time and was about to go forward to check. Xiao Yu waved his hand at her and said softly, "It's okay to sleep. It won't affect my acupuncture." Before he finished speaking, the silver needle had already pierced into the Hegu point on the back of Lin Qinghuan's hand. The pain made her hand tremble unconsciously. Xiao Yu pressed her arm with his fingers. Fortunately, the pain gradually disappeared after the needle was inserted. Then he inserted a few more needles in places where it didn't hurt or itch, which was still bearable.

"Miss Lin has been fainting for a long time because her spiritual palace is damaged. So when she is anxious, she will feel heartache, which is why she feels dizzy." After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he gently turned her arm, with her wrist facing upwards, and quickly inserted a needle into the Taiyuan point on her wrist. Lin Qinghuan screamed in a heart-wrenching pain, sat up directly, and pulled open the curtain, "Do you want to hurt me to death?" What she faced was Xiao Yu's surprised and handsome face. Chu Xia and Lin Mo were so scared that they hurried forward to lower the curtain. Lin Qinghuan also realized that she had done something inappropriate when she lost control. Hong Qi outside the door also heard Qinghuan's screams, pushed the door open, and then closed the door and went out.

Xiao Yu was not as elegant and calm as usual. He was really shocked by Lin Qinghuan's sudden action. He asked Lin Mo to remove the needle for her after half an incense stick, and then went to his grandmother with Lin Qingyao and the people outside the yard.

"Girl, this is the first time I've seen Medical Saint Xiao so anxious." Chu Xia sighed as she watched Xiao Yu's departing back.

"I finally understand why so many people gather at the gate of the courtyard every time." At this time, Lin Qinghuan's mind was full of Xiao Yu's handsome and terrifying face. There was actually such a handsome man in the world. This should be the legendary Pan An's appearance. Moreover, he was different from his elder brother's elegant young man. He had a chic temperament of a man of the world, and was possessed by a flower maniac.

"Don't let anyone know what happened today!" Lin Mo looked at Lin Qinghuan helplessly and warned Chu Xia.

"Sister Mo, why do you call him senior brother?" Half an hour later, Lin Mo gently helped Lin Qinghuan pull out all the silver needles. She looked at Lin Mo and asked curiously.

"My master, Fairy Tao, and Fairy Bu are from the same school, so according to seniority, I should respect him as my senior brother." Lin Mo wiped Lin Qinghuan's arms, palms and backs of his hands with medicinal wine, and then rubbed them gently.

"I see, then how come you don't know each other?" In TV dramas and novels, fellow disciples have been practicing together since childhood, but how come they have never met each other here at Lin Mo's place?

"Dr. Bu's whereabouts are elusive. Even my master hasn't seen him for more than ten years. When I was a child, I met my master by chance and was given instruction in the Medicine Valley of Yinan. My master hadn't left the valley for twenty or thirty years at that time." Lin Mo pulled down Lin Qinghuan's sleeve and spoke while recalling.

"All famous doctors in the world are like this, and those who show up in public every day are quacks." Think about the miracle doctors in martial arts novels, all of them are hiding in some deep mountain forest where you can't find them, as if they don't intend to treat living people. By the time the terminally ill people try their best to find them, they are only breathing their last breath, as if only in this way can the value of the miracle doctor and his extraordinary medical skills be shown.

After Lin Qinghuan finished drinking the medicine, she felt sleepy. The medicine that Lin Moxin had bought was also delivered to her yard. After she left, Lin Qinghuan fell into a deep sleep again.

In Zelan Garden, Lin Mo looked at the silver needles on the wooden table with medical records. Her mind was full of Xiao Yu's face and the content of his conversation. The corners of her mouth rose unconsciously. She carefully wrapped the silver needles with an acupuncture bag and put them into her medical box. Then she picked up a medical book and began to read it. The smell of camphor in the room was very refreshing.

The spring of revival soon ended, and Lin Qingyao turned eighteen. In the same year, Zheng Linfeng, the second son of the Yinnan Palace, inherited the title and became the new prince of Yinnan Palace. When the ginkgo leaves in the front yard fell to the ground, the generous betrothal gifts filled the entire yard. Luofeng City held a wedding banquet for seven consecutive days. Lin Qingyao, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, was married to the Yinnan Palace as a princess with a thousand acres of fertile land and a grand wedding. On the day of her wedding, she looked as beautiful as a fairy in the palace. Lin Qinghuan stood at the gate of the palace, watching the convoy go farther and farther away, with mixed feelings in her heart. She didn't know when she would see the elder sister who treated her best in the world again.

The days gradually became peaceful. After her elder sister got married, Lin Qinghuan never stepped out of the Lin Mansion again. Every day she was either painting in her room or studying herbs with Lin Qingyi in Lin Moyuan. Lin Qingwan would come over every now and then to teach her how to play the piano. Although Lin Qinghuan's musical cells were far from satisfactory, she still patiently taught her a thing or two. Her father praised Lin Qinghuan's attainments in painting as she really inherited her mother's talent. Even her grandmother's room hung a landscape painting she copied, and the one she wrote was of Su Jin.
