Chapter 8: Betrayed
This bean sprout dared to speak to the master like this!
Wen Nuan was angry, she was not good-tempered in the first place: "What can be done if you don't cooperate with the treatment, just relying on one pulse? This Auntie will definitely not be able to heal his hand! I have things to do, goodbye!"
A strain of impatience flashed in those big, bright eyes of Wen Nuan's.
She hates patients who don’t cooperate when seeing a doctor!
What can the doctor do if you don’t cooperate?
She had disappeared suddenly, and Wen Ran would be anxious if she couldn't find her, so she had to go back as soon as possible.
Otherwise, she won’t be able to go up the mountain next time.
Steward Yuan was so angry that his beard was shaking: "You dare!"
What guts!
Does this girl who does not know good from bad know that it’s a great honor to be able to put hands on the master?!
She actually dared to put on airs and raise her face to the master, even calling herself an ancestor in front of the master?
It's almost disrespecting the dynasty, this crime deserves death!
Just wait for the master to get angry and sentence her to death by a thousand cuts!
Wen Nuan stood up and raised her foot to walk out: See how she dares!
"Steward Yuan, you are too rude!" Nalan Jinnian stared at him with a warning look.
Steward Yuan was shocked and didn't dare to make another mistake.
"Girl, please stay. This person was rude just now, so please do not lower yourself to his level."
Nalan Jinnian can see that while this little girl is small, she has a bigger temper than him, and has no patience.
But he doesn’t need to care about a child.
Wen Nuan then turned her body back: "Put your hand up."
"My hand, I am unable to move." He deliberately emphasized the three words “unable to move”.
That means you want to give a pulse, I have no opinion. You can do it yourself.
Wen Nuan understood that this man would probably be in an awkward position, so she walked to his right hand, squatted down, and took his pulse.
Then she rolled up his sleeve and moved her hands up and down his right arm with a calm face.
The corner of Nalan Jinnian's mouth twitched, his body was slightly stiff, but he endured it. He didn't feel anything anyway.
Just couldn't bear to look directly, so he turned his head silently.
Steward Yuan's brows rose suddenly, and he flapped his jaw to speak several times, but he abruptly shut his mouth when he saw the master's eyes.
He deeply suspects this bean sprout had bad intentions!
She actually dared to attack the master!
All the experienced and genius doctors of Fengxiao Hospital have never touched the master like this!
Wen Nuan examined for a quarter of an hour before thinking of a cure. She retracted her hand and stood up straight.
"Well? Can you heal my master's hand?" Steward Yuan thought she was pretending.
"Is there brush and paper?" Wen Nuan wanted to write a prescription for detoxification, but she immediately thought of the original owner's literacy level. The original owner hadn't practiced calligraphy much, and the calligraphy she could do was not well written. She immediately changed her words: "Forget it, I cannot write well! You can just note down what I say."
Nalan Jinnian glanced at Steward Yuan.
Steward Yuan immediately took out an ink brush, ink, paper, and inkstone from the hidden compartment under the table.
He wants to see what she can prescribe!
So Wen Nuan dictated a prescription for detoxification and another prescription for cell recovery, and then said: “In addition to taking medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion are required. Acupuncture and moxibustion require a set of silver needles. Of course, gold needles are good too.”
Wen Nuan listed the size and type of needles she needed.
Steward Yuan took them down one by one.
He was shocked. This prescription sounded a lot like a proper prescription, and each medicinal material was really a medicinal material!
"The medicine can be taken from today. My name is Wen Nuan. I now live in the bamboo house at the end of Wenjia Village, near the base of the mountain. When you are ready with the silver needles, you can send someone to me for acupuncture! Before, I was taken suddenly by your wolf to come here. My sister is still waiting for me in the mountain. I must go or she will be worried."
Nalan Jinnian stood up. He glanced at the big bad wolf squatting aside: "You have troubled Girl Wen! Da Hui is not sensible, I'm really sorry. Da Hui, you send Girl Wen back."
The big bad wolf immediately trotted to Wen Nuan's side, wagged its tail and gestured to her to sit on its back. He would send her off.
"Farewell." Wen Nuan walked over and picked up the pheasant and hare on the ground. This is dinner tonight and cannot be left.
Then she sat on the back of the wolf, and the big bad wolf ran away like a gust of wind.
Nalan Jinnian looked thoughtfully at the direction Wen Nuan was leaving in.
"Master, I will show this prescription to Master Feng? Let someone prepare a set of gold needles by the way?" Steward Yuan had a little bit of faith and expectation in his heart at this moment, but he could not be less careful.
There are a few precious medicinal materials in this prescription, but there is no shortage when it comes to precious master.
"Go! Prepare some consultation fees as well." Nalan Jinnian retracted his gaze. He then thought of the coat and trousers on the little girl that were all too small, and said: "Let someone make some clothing according to her size, and prepare some suitable fabric for girls."
"Yes!" Steward Yuan respectfully responded.
If the bean sprout really healed the master's hand, let alone the reward of a few clothes, ten thousand gold taels is also worth rewarding!
Steward Yuan hurriedly left with the prescription.
Nalan Jinnian raised his head and blew a whistle to the eagle hovering in the sky.
The eagle flew down immediately and landed on the round table. It hadn't been able to fly so freely for a long time.
"Xiao Hei, how did she help you heal your wings?" He had a feeling that the way she helped Xiao Hei heal its wings was different from the way she was treating his own hand.
Xiao Hei flew out in less than two quarters of an hour. She didn’t even have enough time to boil medicine.
On a round tabletop of carved white jade inlaid over Huanghuali wood, there is a thick book with no words on the cover.
Nalan Jinnian stretched out his left hand and opened the cover of the book.
Xiao Hei pressed on the word "she" on the first page with an eagle's claw, and then retracted his claw.
Nalan Jinnian continued to turn pages, pausing for each page.
Xiao Hei will press on it with his eagle claws when he sees a certain word.
Finally, Nalan Jinnian came up with a sentence: She used the purple qi released from her right hand to help me heal my wings.
Nalan Jinnian was startled: "Purple Qi?"
Xiao Hei nodded, and then it's eagle claw continued to press “yes” on the book.
Nalan Jinnian's slender fingers lightly tapped over the white jade tabletop.
Purple qi from her right hand? Then this purple qi can detoxify?
How is this possible?
No matter what was going on, he could understand why she didn't use purple qi to treat himself.
She doesn't know what sins he is guilty of, people's hearts are sinister.
She also probably didn't know that an eagle could read, and didn't expect it to be able to answer questions.
Nalan Jinnian's hand that was tapping the table lifted to gently stroke the eagle's head, and he said warmly, "Xiao Hei, you cannot tell anyone about this. Even Feng Nianchen you cannot tell, otherwise I will cut off your wings and cook you in a soup!"
The speaking tone is mild, and the movements are gentle.
Xiao Hei's eagle feathers were all erect, his whole body was trembling, and his eyes were full of fear.
It nodded it's head like he was pounding garlic with it.
This bad guy always bullies him, an eagle.
This year, it's too difficult to be an eagle!
Nalan Jinnian was satisfied, and withdrew his hand: "The little girl rescued you. You only gave a pheasant. Isn't this too insincere?"
Xiao Hei looked at him with puzzled eagle eyes.
Thinking of someone’s thin body and stunted appearance, like a small bean sprout that has grown up, he continued: "You should send a few prey over every day."
Xiao Hei understands, that young lady is so good, he really should repay her.
It flapped its wings, flew straight up into the air, hovering under the blue sky, and then dived down.
But probably today, it flew too happily in the sky and scared the pheasants into hiding. Xiao Hei did not see pheasants after looking for them for a long time.
Nalan Jinnian walked to the pavilion, with one arm folded behind his back, looking at the pond of residual lotus, motionless.
After a while, he said: "Lin Xing."
A figure in black jumped down from a big tree and knelt behind him: "Master, please order me."
"Check." This little girl felt like she had changed from the last time she fell into the river and he rescued her. The little peasant girl knew too much.
"Yes."
Qi: Vital life energy that animates the body, the force that flows through all things. It takes the form of purple mist in this story. Purple Qi specifically is an auspicious omen/supernatural force in Daoism and Chinese astrology.
