Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

Madam Xue happily returned to the main courtyard. Old Madam’s maid had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw her approaching, she immediately greeted her and asked, “Madam, Old Madam is still waiting for you. Did you drive Lin Dan away?”

“Uh, let’s talk about this later.” Only then did Madam Xue remember her purpose of rushing to Xiaofeng Pavilion, and the expression on her face couldn’t help being a little embarrassing.

The eldest maid seemed very disappointed, but she forced her to be invited into Old Madam’s room with a smile. Because of the prestige of the original owner, 99% of the servants of the Xue family didn’t like her, waiting for her to become a lost dog.

“Is that girl Dan’er gone? If she wants to come to the main courtyard to ask for a meeting, you can stop me. I don’t want to see her anymore.” A very distressed look. After her grandson became paralyzed, she also became seriously ill, and she has not yet recovered. Previously, she thought that Lin Dan had made a change, and she was happy for a while, but she didn’t expect to be slapped in the face by Lin Dan, so she couldn’t bear it mentally and fell down again.

“Mother, I didn’t catch Lin Dan. When I went, Boyong was eating by himself, as if he disliked Lin Dan’s service. Mother, you did the right thing, send Lin Dan away, Boyong really has a normal person’s reaction.” Speaking of this, Madam Xue immediately showed a happy expression.

“Can Boyong eat by himself?” Old Madam got up immediately and said anxiously, “No, I have to go and see for myself.”

Madam Xue hurried to stop her and persuaded her: “Don’t move, just lie down, Boyong is fine, you can see it anytime you want, it’s not bad for a moment. Weak, you two got sick from each other, so what should we do!”

As soon as Old Madam heard this, she didn’t dare to move, and promised again and again: “Okay, I won’t go. It doesn’t matter if this old bone of mine died of illness, if I kill my good grandson, I will regret it. What! How much food did he eat? What kind of dishes did he have? Does he look better?”

“He ate a bowl of porridge, a few pieces of braised tofu and a little minced meat, and his face looked much better. I asked Lin Dan to feed him, but he firmly disagreed and even spoke to me.”

“What did he say?”

“He said: Mother, I eat by myself, don’t let others feed it.”

“Oh, this child is still the same as when he was a child, with a particularly thin skin! If he is willing to talk, everything will be fine!” Old Madam said with tears in her eyes.

“Yes! Master is looking for famous doctors everywhere. If Qin State does not have it, he will go to Wu State. If Wu State does not, he will go to Chu State. The Central Plains is so big, there will always be someone who can cure this disease. As long as Boyong overcomes the hurdle in his heart, he is willing to get back on his feet, everything will be fine.” Madam Xue lowered her head and wiped away tears, her voice choked.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat opposite each other, crying and laughing, making all the maids dumbfounded. As for the words “shooing Lin Dan away”, no one dared to say it again.

Lin Dan didn’t know that she was almost swept out of the house, and was rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find things. The book “Lin’s Needle Method” has already stated that all family acupuncture methods must use special needles made by the ancestors of the Lin family, and cannot be mixed with external gold needles and silver needles, otherwise it will be ineffective. But she searched all over the place, but couldn’t find this set of needles, let alone found that Father Lin used it in her memory.

Is it also lost? Just thinking of this, she patted her forehead and scolded herself for being stupid. Since the bottom of the box can hide things, so can the lid of the box. After a while, she found a set of acupuncture tools in the lid of the box. There were needles as thin as ox hair, needles as thick as bamboo sticks, needles as long as half a foot, needles as short as two inches, and needles of various shapes. The different stone needles and gold foil are wrapped in cloth and well preserved.

However, without the cultivation method of inner strength, these tools are equivalent to waste. It is no wonder that since the ninth generation, the ancestors of the Lin family have sealed them up, and they will never see the light of day again.

Lin Dan held these needles in his hand and identified them one by one according to the pictures in the book. At this moment, there was a muffled sound from the next room, as if something heavy fell on the ground. She immediately put the needle back in its place and hurried over to check it out. In order to take better care of Xue Boyong, she completely ignored the defense of men and women, and directly moved her belongings into the wing next to him. Living so close, she could hear the slightest disturbance on the other side.

When she arrived, the servant who was in charge of serving Xue Boyong had already fallen asleep and was lying on the soft couch outside, while Xue Boyong rolled off the bed and was struggling to support his upper body, trying to climb back.

“Brother, don’t move, I’ll help you.” Lin Dan easily picked up an eight-foot tall man, placed it gently on the couch, and asked softly, “Brother, do you want to drink? Water? You just ask someone to help you, why do you do it yourself?”

It was the second time that Xue Boyong had been hugged by Lin Dan. He was closing his eyes and didn’t want to look at each other at all.

Lin Dan poured a cup of hot tea and put it to his mouth.

He gritted his teeth tightly and looked passively resisting.

Lin Dan sighed, squeezed his cheek, pried open his teeth, and forced a glass of water.

Xue Boyong choked up and coughed again and again, and a blush appeared on his pale cheeks, which turned out to be very handsome. He looked straight at Lin Dan, his eyes extremely cold.

Lin Dan said slowly: “Brother, what are you looking at? You can’t deal with me, so you should drink water obediently, or you will choke later. In fact, Brother had the opportunity to drive me away, as long as he saw me. At first glance, you said that you didn’t like me and wanted me to leave, and Old Madam and Madam would immediately drive me away. But you stubbornly didn’t speak, so I stayed.”

As she spoke, she poured a second glass of water, still trying to force it, but Xue Boyong took the initiative to take it over and drank it bit by bit. After drinking, he looked up and his dark eyes flashed brightly.

Lin Dan smiled slightly, breaking his hopes, “Brother, it’s too late for you to talk now. You despised me and didn’t want me to take care of you, so you took the initiative to eat and drink water, and even talked to Madam. Now, they must think that It is I who stimulated you that will cheer you up. If you say that you drive me away, they will never listen. So brother, you are completely in my hands now, so you should eat and drink honestly, sleep, and take good care of your body.”

Speaking of which, she said seriously: “Brother, look at how weak and powerless you are now? Don’t you feel aggrieved?”

Xue Boyong drank the water expressionlessly, as if he didn’t hear her at all, but after drinking, he didn’t return the teacup to her, but threw it directly on the ground. Maybe he originally wanted to smash it, but his hands were too weak to do it.

The teacup fell vertically on the feet covered with woolen blankets, not to mention shattering, without even making a sound.

Lin Dan picked up the intact teacup, wiped it clean, and said casually, “Brother, do you want to vent your anger or demonstrate to me? If you have the strength, you can smash the cup in my face, that’s the only way to be happy. But look, your demonstration didn’t even splash a little bit of water, I don’t know, I thought your hand slipped.”

Xue Boyong closed his eyes and panted heavily, the blue veins on his forehead popping out one by one.

The little servant, who had already been awakened by the movement of the two, stood in the corner, daring not to say a word.

“Brother, take a good rest, I won’t disturb you.” Lin Dan put the cup back in its original position, walked out, suddenly stopped when he reached the door, and explained to the servant, “Brother drank a lot of water, You first use a urinal to pick up some urine for him and then lay him down, otherwise he will be suffocated at night, which will affect his sleep.”

She didn’t think there was anything wrong with her words at all, but the little servant’s cheeks were blushing, his eyes were dodging, and he looked shy and unspeakable.

Xue Boyong couldn’t bear it any longer, he suddenly opened his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, “Aren’t you going yet?”

“I’m leaving now, good night, Brother.” She stepped out of the threshold and explained seriously, “If you have anything, just call, and I’ll come over immediately. I live next door, very close.”

“You have a daughter’s family, you are not married yet, but you live in a big man’s yard, and you set the room next to him, don’t you think it’s inappropriate?” Xue Boyong reprimanded in a hoarse voice.

Lin Dan snapped his fingers and said, “Brother, you told me thirty-eight words in one breath. I stayed in the Xue family for twelve years. This is the longest sentence I have ever heard from you. It’s amazing.” After she spoke she closed the door and commanded through the door panel: “It’s almost time, Brother, go to sleep.” She was completely ignorant of what the other party said.

Xue Boyong stared fiercely at the door panel, as if he wanted to stare it out two holes. His dead eyes were now frighteningly bright.

The young servant took the urinal in fear, and was swept away by Eldest Young Master’s death gaze, and almost knelt down and kowtowed. In this Xue Manor, Miss Lin was indeed the most powerful, even the tiger beard dared to flirt.

Lin Dan went back to her room and continued to study the medical books. She lay down and went to sleep when the sleepiness came over, and then fell asleep in a second. She had no idea what she had made Xue Boyong angry about.

The next day, she went to the kitchen early to make two bowls of porridge and a few small dishes, and sent them to Xue Boyong’s room. After serving Xue Boyong for breakfast, she was ready to formally study medicine. Everyone learns to recite Tangtou Poetry at the age of four or five, and learn to diagnose the pulse at the age of seven or eight, but she only started at the age of seventeen, which is a bit late after all.

This time, she didn’t need to say another word. As soon as she put down the food box, Xue Boyong took the initiative to say, “I’ll do it myself, I don’t need you to feed it.”

Madam Xue came to visit her son every morning. When she pushed the door and came in, she just heard him say these words, and saw him lying on the table seriously drinking porridge, trying hard not to let her trembling hands drain the porridge and water in the spoon. Sprinkling it out, as if returning to the time when he just learned to eat by himself when he was a child.

Many memories flooded into my heart and wet Madam Xue’s eyes. Fearing that her arrival would spoil her son’s appetite, she quickly backed out and peeked out of the window. She saw Lin Dan frequently put vegetables into her son’s bowl, some scrambled eggs, and some finely chopped sauerkraut, and her son swallowed them all without showing any resistance. In the past, if any woman dared to get so close, or even touch his food, he would have been cold-hearted.

“Madam, aren’t you going in?” A maid who was in charge of serving Eldest Young Master, but was blocked by Lin Dan outside the door, asked in a low voice.

“I won’t go in. Boyong can’t even hold the spoon firmly. He spills half of his mouthful and is very embarrassed. If I go in, he will be thin-skinned and will definitely refuse to eat.” Madam Xue still knew her son very well. , then waved his hand and said with relief: “Go back, we will come again in the afternoon.”

“But Miss Lin is also inside, isn’t Eldest Young Master also eating well?” The maid said unwillingly.

“Lin Dan is an outsider, I’m his mother, what’s the difference? He can’t care about Lin Dan’s opinion, but he can’t care about his family’s opinion. He doesn’t want us to see his weak appearance, so we can just pretend we can’t see it.” Madam Xue wiped the corners of her eyes, stared at the maid before leaving, and said coldly, “You talk too much.”

The maid hurriedly bowed her head to admit her mistake, and then sent the group away in fear. Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com
