"Yes, different climates in different places have different effects on the human body. The climate in the southwest is hot and humid, and eating spicy food can expel dampness from the body, which is beneficial to health. However, the climate in Beijing is dry, and long-term consumption of spicy and stimulating foods can lead to the stagnation of damp heat in the body, which can cause uterine blockage in women."

Xue Ruanruan patiently explained traditional Chinese medicine knowledge to her third grandmother and second cousin-in-law.

The Third Madam and Madam Lu seemed to understand, but that didn't stop them from roughly knowing that it was caused by their diet.

Mrs. Lu was filled with regret. She wished she hadn't been so greedy and eaten those spicy and stimulating foods. When she got back, she would definitely make the cook throw all those seasonings away.

"Ruanruan, if your second cousin's wife abstains from spicy food, she can have a baby?"

The Third Madam always felt uncertain, after all, she had seen so many traditional Chinese medicine doctors, and even with the help of her second sister-in-law, she had invited several imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital to examine her second son's family, but they still couldn't find the root of the illness.

Why does it sound so simple to that soft-spoken girl?

"It will take some time to recuperate and expel the dampness that has accumulated in the body."

Xue Ruanruan reached her slender, soft hand towards Lu's lower abdomen and gently pressed a few times, causing Lu to cry out in pain, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"Second sister-in-law, does it hurt a lot?"

"Little sister, why is it that even though you didn't use any force, this spot feels like it's being pricked with needles, and the pain is unbearable?"

Lu bit her lower lip in pain, her handkerchief torn to shreds, but she managed to resist pushing Xue Ruanruan away.

"That's normal. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Take one dose daily, and the symptoms should disappear in seven days."

Second Sister-in-law's symptoms weren't particularly severe. In fact, if she had used the medicinal herbs produced in the space to make medicine, she would have recovered in less than two days.

But she couldn't do that. The medicinal herbs grown in the space had amazing effects. Replacing a few herbs that required a certain age would achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"Thank you so much, little sister. You're so kind of me."

Lu was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She held Xue Ruanruan's hand tightly and wouldn't let go, as if she were grasping at the last straw.

"Second sister-in-law, don't be so polite. Also, in the future, when you're angry, don't hold it in your heart. It's better for your health to talk it out."

The saying "Rome wasn't built in a day" applies here; my second sister-in-law's illness didn't develop overnight. The most important factor was her mindset.

A good mindset leads to good health.

"I understand, little sister. Your sister-in-law will definitely listen to your advice and will never hold a grudge again."

After Xue Ruanruan's diagnosis, Madam Lu was filled with admiration for her.

Today is the first time I've met my little sister, and she's already seen through all my problems. No wonder she's the apprentice of the divine doctor.

Because of her personality, Lu Shi didn't interact much with her other sisters-in-law and was usually very low-key. When everyone saw how excited she was, they knew how amazing her husband's cousin was, and they were all very interested in her.

Female doctors were extremely rare in the Chu and Qin states. Women often had some embarrassing ailments that were inconvenient to discuss with doctors, so they could only endure them.

Now that my younger sister's medical skills are so amazing, they have seen hope and will no longer have to endure it.

"Little sister, can scabies on the face be cured?"

Wang's eldest daughter-in-law, Dong, suddenly spoke up. Before seeing Xue Ruanruan treat Lu, she still had doubts.

She felt that no matter how capable her sister-in-law was, she was still just a fifteen-year-old girl, while the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy had to go through layers of selection and decades of training to become imperial physicians.

Even the imperial physicians couldn't cure this ailment, so it's unlikely that my sister-in-law could cure it either, unless a divine physician personally takes the case.

But after a series of diagnoses, their attitude gradually changed.

Holding the beauty and health-preserving pills given to her by her sister-in-law, Madam Dong was planning to go back to her parents' home the next day.

She's already married and has children, so using beauty and health pills would be a waste. It would be better to take them back to her parents' home for her third sister to take and see if they have any effect.

The third sister is about to pass the age for marriage. As she gets older, if she can't find a good family soon, she will be forced to live a life of seclusion in the family temple. Dong Shi is also very anxious and worried.

She had been engaged long ago, but for some reason, her face was covered with scabies, and her fiancé's family broke off the engagement.

When scabies is not fully developed, it appears as pustules. Once fully developed, it leaves deep pits, making the once smooth and clear face look pitted and unsightly.

"It depends on the cause. It's usually curable, but if it leaves a scar, it will take some time to heal."

Xue Ruanruan has been interested in beauty and skincare techniques since childhood. She has read through all the books on women's beauty care in Medicine King Valley and learned many beauty secrets.

After improvements, the results were amazing.

Back in Medicine King Valley, there were only the two of them, master and disciple. Since there was no one else to test the medicine, they had to use the master as a guinea pig.

During that time, after taking his own beauty and skincare formula, his skin became smooth and radiant, with a fair and rosy complexion, making him look several years younger.

There are also medicated masks that can be applied to the face, leaving the skin soft and smooth the next morning, making you look several years younger.

Considering the current situation of the General's Mansion, Xue Ruanruan's desire to make money became even stronger.

The Xue family army was suffering heavy losses, and in order to allow her father and brothers to fight on the front lines with peace of mind and protect their home and country, she needed to earn a lot of money to support them.

Then there's my third brother, that exceptionally talented man who excelled in both literature and martial arts. For the sake of the family, he gave up his own interests, humbled himself as a merchant, and led several of his cousins ​​on business trips.

In his previous life, Third Brother did not live to see the Xue family exterminated by the new emperor. Instead, he encountered pirates while traveling for business and perished at sea. His body was never recovered; only a cenotaph was erected for him.

In this life, she wants her third brother to do what he loves and never have to worry about money again.

His greatest skill was medicine, but earning money solely by treating patients was limited and too slow, far from meeting the needs of Xue's army.

In her previous life, after marrying the crown prince, she was forced to give up her beloved medical skills and navigate the relationships between various ladies and young women in order to win over the court officials for Murong Luo.

In order to please them, I went to great lengths to study their preferences.

I stumbled upon a way to make money: beauty and skincare.

Using her solid medical background, she began to study cosmeceuticals for whitening, nourishing the skin, and reducing wrinkles, and later she actually developed quite a few good formulas.

To make it easier for the ladies and young women of various families to get beauty treatments, she even used her dowry to purchase several shops in the most prosperous areas of the capital.

Unexpectedly, the business became a huge success, attracting wealthy ladies from Beijing to flock to experience the magical effects of the cosmeceuticals.

Money flowed in like water, and in just one year, he earned hundreds of thousands of taels of gold.

Unfortunately, her efforts did not earn her the Crown Prince's favor. Murong Luo used the connections and influence she had cultivated to step over the Xue family army and successfully ascend to the throne.

The first thing he did after ascending the throne was to issue an execution order, exterminating the Xue family and their nine generations. He then brought Shen Yuanxiang, who was outside the palace, into the palace and made her his empress.
