Wang Jingye stood up and bowed to Mo Chenxi.

"Madam He, I asked you to come here today precisely to discuss this matter. Doctor An also suggested recreating the accident scene. Since my younger sister was so affectionate with Madam He, my husband and I have begged Madam He for help. We will recreate it, with Madam He pretending to be my mother-in-law and protecting my younger sister, to see if we can bring her soul back to life."

"I didn't expect Madam He to bring it up first. My husband and I are extremely grateful. If there are any requests, our Wang and Nie families will definitely do what we can."

Mo Chenxi said, "I don't have any requests, I just feel pity for Xuanxuan. Besides, when Big Brother Wang helped my Mo family, he didn't do it out of any hope that my Mo family could do anything. It was Big Brother Wang's willingness. I was also willing to do it, just because Big Brother Wang and his wife were so approachable and didn't look down on my Mo family."

Mrs. Wang wiped her tears and said, "I asked Doctor An. If this matter had any adverse effects on Madam He's health, my husband and I would not bring it up. I believe my stepmother will protect Lingxuan and will not bring trouble to Madam He."

She always believed that her stepmother's soul was in Mrs. He, so she wanted Mrs. He's help, so that she could be sure to cure her sister and Mrs. He would not be harmed.

If she had to hurt someone to save her sister, she couldn't just ignore it and only care about her sister.

Mrs. Wang told her two younger brothers about this. Nie Cheng'an felt a little ashamed. Yesterday he had tried to stop his eldest brother from accepting He Shanluo as his apprentice, but he didn't expect Mrs. He to offer to help without asking for anything.

The eldest brother is worse than him, and he is not as good as the eldest brother.

Wang Jingye went to tell Doctor An, who said, "I'll write a prescription for Madam He. You can find some medicine and have her come here to take it. Also, Miss Nie, please take her pulse as soon as possible in the morning, on an empty stomach. This is best when the meridians are not yet full of Qi."

This is a bit difficult to deal with, as Nie Lingxuan won't just let the doctor take her pulse.

This made Mrs. Wang very worried. It was useless to deceive her that she was not a doctor. As soon as the wrist was touched, she would become alert and struggle desperately, and the doctor could not diagnose her.

She went to the backyard and saw her sister and He Yinhua and others chasing each other and playing.

Zhou came over and said, "Mrs. Wang, is there something wrong? I see that Mrs. Wang looks worried."

She had been at the Wang family for a while, gradually becoming familiar with the place and daring to speak.

Mrs. Wang said, "I'm worried about my younger sister. She won't let the doctor feel her pulse."

Zhou knew that the Nie family had brought a doctor, and she wanted to take her parents-in-law's pulse.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was worried about taking the pulse of the Second Miss Nie, she said, "That's easy. Have Yinhua and the others play a game with the Second Miss. Have them hold out their hands and guess who the other person is. I used to play this game with my sisters at my mother's when I was little. We'd play blindfolded and guess who the other person is. Let's play for a few days. Then, when the time comes, have the doctor take the Second Miss's pulse, and she won't know."

Mrs. Wang laughed. "Why didn't I think of that? Thank you, sister. Then you take them to play first. I'll go prepare some snacks. If you guess right, you can have a bite. If you don't, you can get a slap on the palm of your hand."

She happily went to prepare snacks.

Zhou was very clever in how she played it, starting with just touching the back of the hand, then the fingers a day later, and finally the wrist.

She then instructed all the children to touch their wrists and imitate the doctor's pulse-taking posture.

Her hands were relatively large and rough, like a man's. Nie Lingxuan was alert at first and pulled the blindfold, but when she saw it was her, she put it back on.

Mo Chenxi came to take medicine every day, and joined Mrs. Wang. They played for fifteen minutes in the morning and then had breakfast.

Other children would be impatient to play such a simple game after one or two days, but Nie Lingxuan enjoyed it very much. The main reason was that Mrs. Wang prepared different gifts every day, and Mo Chenxi even brought the half-finger gloves she had knitted.

When Xiao Xiangming heard about it, he brought a bunch of jewelry worn by little girls and a bunch of toys as prizes.

He painted a few more paintings and complained to Wang Jingye that he was exhausted and that the money he earned was used to pay for Second Sister Nie's medical treatment.

Wang Jingye curled his lips. How tiring could it be to just paint a few pictures?

He told his confidant to sell it at a higher price.

He met his cousin again and told her about his plan to treat Nie Lingxuan, and also mentioned his attempt to test Nie Cheng'an.

"I think he doesn't seem to know that the Nie family is the direct descendant of the Ji family. He's not as calm as Chengping. Perhaps it's because he's two years younger, and he always thinks of himself as the second son. He doesn't have the same worries as Chengping about carrying the weight of the Nie family."

When Queen Mother Wang heard Madam He offer to help, she recalled the slightly shy smile on Madam He's face when she first met her. It wasn't the kind of smile that showed nervousness, but the kind that showed embarrassment.

There really are honest and simple families like the Mo family.

She also investigated Mo Yuanji thoroughly. Mo Yuanji had always been helping his relatives and his son-in-law's family.

How much salary can a seventh-rank official get?

The Mo family had land, and their family was quite well-off before he passed the imperial examination. However, it was difficult for a countryman without connections to climb the official career ladder.

His children are like him, all honest people.

"When is Doctor An going to start?"

"It was Dazhi's wife who came up with the idea. Doctor An took Lingxuan's pulse and said she was in good health. She needed to clear her internal heat recently because she had been taking too many tonics. It was my wife who forced all the good stuff on Lingxuan. Her junior sister gave her some wild ginseng, and she made soup for Lingxuan. Now, the tonic has taken effect, and I gave my wife a good scolding."

Mrs. Wang smiled. She loved listening to her cousin talk about their family, and everything he said was full of warmth and affection.

Wang Jingye said, "Xiang Ming and his friends met the idiot who was harmed by his uncle when they went to dinner. I have sent people to investigate and have taken him out of the temple and placed him in the farm. Doctor An has been giving him acupuncture and medicine recently. Let's see how he does. His uncle will be dealt with later."

Queen Mother Wang said, "The wife of the Zhong family has fallen ill and has called the imperial physician. Please ask Doctor An to go to the Zhong family to see her. She is his aunt."

Wang Jingye went home and told Doctor An that he had heard it from someone on the street.

Doctor An hurried to the Zhong family. He had been busy looking up information recently and going to the farm every day to give acupuncture to the idiot. He was too busy to visit his aunt.

Wang Jingye gave him two old ginsengs and some medicinal herbs, "Don't go empty-handed, see what herbs your aunt needs, and then ask my wife and junior sister to find them."

Doctor An thanked him and went directly to the Zhong family.

I saw a man sneaking around and peeking at the door. It was the man who pulled my cousin last time, and he seemed to be my cousin's brother-in-law.

Xia Qiran came to the Zhong family several times, but was stopped by the doorman every time. He saw the second son of the Zhong family hurried out, and after a while he brought a doctor in.

He knew it was a doctor just by smelling it.

I wanted to wait for my cousin to come out, but I waited for two days and he didn't come out.

As soon as he turned around, he saw someone standing at the door looking at him.

Xia Qiran recognized at a glance that he was the person his cousin sent out that day. His cousin called him cousin, so that was his cousin.

He walked over with his hands in his pockets, "My cousin is here. I'm Zhong Hanlin's cousin."

As soon as I walked in, I smelled medicine. This cousin is a doctor.

Xia Qiran was contemptuous, thinking that a doctor was of no use.

As soon as Doctor An saw the man's face, he knew that he had indulged too much and had drained his body of waste.

He ignored her and knocked on the door.

Generally, the front door of a wealthy family is not open, and there is a small door next to it.

The door opened a crack, and the doorman stuck his head out. Seeing it was him, he hurriedly said, "Mr. An is here, come in quickly."

As soon as Doctor An entered, the man behind him tried to come in. He turned around and kicked him out.

I followed Nie Cheng'an and the others to Beijing and saw that this was how Xiao Xiangming and Shang Yuanwu treated those scoundrels.
