After returning to the capital, the eldest daughter saved her entire clan with her medical skills.

"Little sister, could you please take a look at my third sister?"

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, let me check on the patient's condition first."

Xue Ruanruan first checked under the patient's mattress to see if there was any incontinence. If there was, the patient would be beyond saving.

Fortunately, it was clean and tidy, with no odor or dirt.

The fair, delicate fingers rested on the wrist of the third young lady of the Marquis's mansion, and only after feeling an extremely faint pulse did the person breathe a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, the person is still alive.

As long as he was still breathing, she was confident she could pull him back from the brink of death.

"How is it, little sister?"

Mrs. Dong knew she shouldn't disturb her sister-in-law's medical treatment, but she just couldn't help herself.

"There is hope, but we need a rooster that has been raised for more than three years, and it must be alive. We need to find it as soon as possible, otherwise even a miracle worker will have difficulty saving it."

"A live rooster? And it has to be at least three years old? I'll go and have someone find one right away."

This was the first time Mr. Dong had ever heard of needing a live chicken for medical treatment. He was initially surprised, but fortunately it wasn't a difficult matter, so he readily agreed.

"Miss Xue, is there really any hope for my daughter?"

Qin's mother had been crying all morning, her voice was dry and hoarse, and her body was already exhausted. Fortunately, she heard that her youngest daughter could be saved, and she looked at Xue Ruanruan with longing and fear.

"Auntie, don't worry, there really is still hope for the Third Miss."

"Alright, alright, just let me know if there's anything else you need us to prepare, and I'll have someone get it ready right away."

Qin's mother still had some doubts. After all, the girl in front of her was only a few years younger than her youngest daughter. It was already rare for her to know medicine. She certainly didn't believe that she was more skilled than those old doctors who had been practicing medicine for decades.

The Marquis's mansion invited several doctors in succession, but after examining the youngest daughter, they all shook their heads and sighed, saying that there was no hope for her.

Since Miss Xue said there was hope, she had to give it a try.

"temporarily unavailable."

Xue Ruanruan stopped talking to Madam Dong, took out a thin silver needle from her medicine box, and inserted it diagonally upwards into the philtrum of the Third Miss.

His hands moved so fast and ruthlessly that Dong's mother and daughter were so frightened that they closed their eyes, unable to bear watching any longer.

Such a long silver needle was inserted straight into the daughter's/younger sister's brain. Even if she survived, it would still cause brain damage.

Xue Ruanruan ignored the reactions of Madam Dong and her daughter, grabbed the ten fingers of the third young lady of the Marquis's mansion, and pricked each one with a sharp needle until bright red blood flowed from the tips of each finger.

Then they removed the patient's foot covering and used the same method to puncture each of her toes, letting out the blood.

The blood from the toes is not as bright red as the blood flowing from the fingers, but rather a dark reddish-brown, and the amount is very small.

Xue Ruanruan couldn't help but frown, hoping that the Marquis could catch the rooster quickly, as she didn't have much time left.

Although he was anxious, he did not show it and calmly continued to insert two needles diagonally into the Yongquan acupoints on the soles of his feet.

As Dong's mother watched the nearly two-inch-long silver needle pierce deep into her daughter's sole, with only half an inch of the needle tip protruding, she broke out in a cold sweat, unable to imagine how much pain her daughter must be in.

He opened his lips, then closed them again, forcing himself not to speak.

Dong's heart was also in turmoil. She hoped that her sister-in-law could save her third sister, but she was also afraid that if she couldn't save her, her third sister's body would be ruined, and she would not know how to explain it to her family.

After all, her sister-in-law had only been found a few days ago, and she had only seen her take pulses for others. As for whether she could cure the illness, there was no conclusion yet.

Just as the mother and daughter were each making wild guesses, Xue Ruanruan had already come to the side of the bed with a sharp weapon and stabbed it into the Baihui acupoint of the third young lady.

The Baihui acupoint is located on the top of the head. The top of the third young lady of the Hou family's skull was pierced by a sharp weapon, and a jet of blood spurted out, all of which landed on Xue Ruanruan's fair and tender cheeks, which looked very terrifying.

"What are you doing? Let go of my daughter!"

Qin's mother did not fully trust Xue Ruanruan's medical skills. If her eldest daughter had not brought her here herself, she would never have entrusted her child to a girl who was not even as old as her youngest daughter.

I was already furious when I saw that young woman stick needles all over my daughter's body.

Now that the eldest daughter of the Xue family had actually stabbed her daughter in the head, causing a large amount of blood to splatter out, she couldn't help but shout out in rebuke.

"Mother, please don't do this. It will delay your younger sister's treatment for your third sister."

Madam Dong held her mother's hand tightly and gently comforted her, afraid that her mother might offend her sister-in-law too much and the sister-in-law would abandon her, leaving them helpless.

“I’ve lived most of my life and I’ve never seen anyone abuse a person like this. All the other doctors said there was no hope, but she, a young girl, said there was hope. But look at what she’s done to my daughter’s body.”

Mother Dong was so angry that her eyes turned red and tears unexpectedly streamed down her face.

"Mother!"

Madam Dong never expected that her mother, who was usually so virtuous and reasonable, would say such a thing. This was not only a questioning of her sister-in-law's medical skills, but also a sign of distrust towards her.

"You're a married woman, yet you conspired with your in-laws to frame my daughter! Have you lost all your conscience?!"

Madam Dong even hated Madam Dong. If it weren't for her eldest daughter bringing this Xue family's eldest daughter, whose identity was unknown, to the mansion, her child wouldn't have had to suffer like this before death.

“Mother, what you’re saying is so disheartening. I originally brought my sister-in-law to the manor to treat my third sister’s scabies, but who would have thought we’d encounter something like this.”

"Your sister-in-law is busy trying to save your third sister. Since you can't help much, just watch quietly and at least don't cause any trouble."

"Regardless of whether my third sister can be saved, my sister-in-law is doing her best to save her. If you can't bear to watch, go and wait in the yard."

Mr. Dong rarely got so angry.

Does a married daughter no longer belong to her maternal family? Her mother's interpretation of her feelings for her third sister is truly disheartening.

“Mother, your son went to the market to buy a live rooster that is three years old.”

A clear voice rang out, diverting the attention of Dong's mother, who was about to get angry. She quickly wiped away her tears and went to greet the person.

Holding a live rooster with a large red comb and sharp eyes, Dong Xiangzeng followed Lord Dong in.

"Humph"

Madam Dong gave a soft snort, turned her head away to sulk, and ignored him.

"What's wrong, Mother? Who upset you?"

Dong Xiangzeng was inexplicably given the cold shoulder, and looked bewildered. Had he said something wrong?

"You talk too much. Hurry up and deliver the rooster to Miss Xue. If you dawdle any longer, I'll beat you up."

Lord Dong broke out in a sweat, fearing he would delay important matters, and kicked his son.

After learning that a live rooster could save his youngest daughter's life, he went straight to the market, but the morning market had already closed and the vendors selling live chickens had all gone home.

Just as he was about to give up and try looking somewhere else, he came across an old man squatting by the roadside selling roosters.

It was exactly three years since the incident. Without saying much, he threw down a piece of silver, grabbed a chicken, and hurried back to the mansion.

Hopefully, everything will be alright in time.
