Chapter 32: Never Heard Of You
"Okay." Nalan Jinnian got up from behind the desk and sat down at a small round table off to the side.
A cloud brocade pillow with red embroidered magpies on tree branches has been prepared there.
"Girl, please sit down."
Wen Nuan sat down beside him.
The big bad wolf lay down at Wen Nuan's feet, like a loyal dog.
Nalan Jinnian put his right hand on the pulse pillow. Steward Yuan was about to put a veil on his hand when Nalan Jinnian glanced up at him coldly.
Steward Yuan did not dare to move.
The big bad wolf rolled his wolf eyes at Steward Yuan.
"Steward Yuan, go bring out the gold needles." His tone was indifferent.
"Yes, Master!" Steward Yuan immediately walked to the Bogu shelf and took down an exquisitely carved box. Then he stood off to the side holding the box, afraid to disturb the pulse diagnosis.
Wen Nuan did not seem to notice, her thin fingertips lightly resting on Nalan Jinnian's pulse. Her fingers were slightly pale, and her pink nails were round and clean but also a little whitish.
"How does your hand feel today?"
"It's a little numb now, like it was yesterday." Nalan Jinnian felt that when she pulled his hand in her hand, the numbness reappeared.
Wen Nuan nodded: "It is a good thing to feel a little numbness. This means that your mobility has begun to recover."
After a while, Wen Nuan retracted her hand: "Yes, the toxins are clearing out faster than I expected."
The poison in him was very overbearing. Now the nerve cells have been severely damaged. A little carelessness will result in irreversible disability.
Steward Yuan opened the box carefully, and whispered: "Miss Wen, see if these gold needles meet your requirements?"
Wen Nuan took a look, the gold needles were neatly placed on red brocade.
She nodded and looked at Nalan Jinnian again: "Okay, Seventeenth Young Master, are you ready for the acupuncture?"
Nalan Jinnian heard her calling him “Young Master” and felt that it sounded a little awkward, so he said: "My name is Jinnian, Miss Wen can call me by name."
Wen Nuan gave him a surprised look, and Steward Yuan also looked at his master strangely.
Nalan Jinnian noticed something was wrong: "Or just call me Seventeenth Brother like your eldest brother and the others. Master is too distant."
Steward Yuan was shocked: What is the identity of the master? No one in the entire Nalan Kingdom can be considered qualified to call him brother!
The master actually let this wild girl call him brother?
What does this mean? !
Is the master looking after her?
Steward Yuan looked Wen Nuan. This bean sprout has not grown up yet!
Nothing to look at.
Absolutely impossible!
She is not worthy!
The master must respect her because of her medical skills!
After all, isn't it only her who can heal the master's hand?
Wen Nuan is not entangled by this matter, it's just one term of address: "Okay, Seventeenth Brother can also call me Sister Nuan."
Steward Yuan's eyes narrowed after hearing this. Seventeenth Brother? She really dared to call it! It seems that she must be warned later, lest she think too much!
Wen Nuan glanced around, there was only a chaise in the study, no bed, so she said, “Seventeenth Brother, you'll need to lie down for a time.”
Steward Yuan heard this and said: "Go to the guest room!"
A girl entering a man’s bedroom, this is not so good. Besides, the master never likes women to enter his room for even half a step.
"Don't bother." Nalan Jinnian stood up, walked back to the desk, and turned a brush stand. At this time, the Bogu shelf behind him moved, revealing the entrance to an inner room.
The big bad wolf ran in first, then wagged its tail at Wen Nuan, as if inviting her to enter quickly.
Steward Yuan's forehead jumped, even if he respects her, does the master trust this Wen girl too much?
The secret room in the study was filled with many secret military letters, but the master still let her know about it.
Compared to the bedroom, Steward Yuan felt that it was more important to not let her in the secret room.
Then Steward Yuan thought about how Wen Nuan was just a peasant girl, and she doesn't have the courage to hang around, nor does she have the ability to steal things through the layers of secret guards. Maybe she doesn't even understand a single written word!
Thinking of this he was calm again.
"There is a bed inside." Nalan Jinnian turned to walk in first.
"Good."
The two raised their feet in tandem and entered the room.
At this time, a figure in white broke in: "Is the girl who prescribed the antidote medicine here?"
Wen Nuan turned her head and looked out the door and a man in white hurried in.
The man has red lips and white teeth, his skin is snowy, his eyebrows are trimmed, and his temperament is elegant. His white coat gave off a clean and pure aura, making him look pleasing to the eye.
Wen Nuan recognized this voice, isn't this the original owner of the ginseng?
No, where is there a master of wild ginseng? He didn't engrave his name on it!
Whoever digs it up is whoever gets it!
Feng Nianchen was also looking at Wen Nuan at this time. She was such a dried string bean of a girl, obviously malnourished, weak, and sickly! Can she actually detoxify the poison that you can't detox?
Does she actually know the method of acupuncture and moxibustion?
He found it a little bit unbelievable!
"Little girl, did you prescribe that antidote?"
"Hmm." Wen Nuan nodded slightly.
"How did you know the antidote prescription?"
"Learned it."
"Where did you learn it?"
Does she live by the sea?
Her worldview is so wide!
Wen Nuan frowned, and there was a faint look of impatience in her eyes: "Self-taught. Do you still want to do acupuncture?"
Feng Nianchen: "..."
This is the first time someone dared shrug off his face!
He is the first born heir of a genius doctor, and he is known as the little genius doctor!
No one dared to offend a genius doctor in the entire Nalan Kingdom! Even the Emperor spoke to him somewhat politely! And many other important people besides!
"Did you just call him Seventeenth Brother?" He looked strange as he asked.
"Well, why can't I call him that? It's what he asked me to call him."
Feng Nianchen's expression turned even more strange: "No?!"
"Let's go." Nalan Jinnian gave Feng Nianchen a faint look, and then walked into the secret room.
Wen Nuan followed in.
Feng Nianchen rubbed his nose sheepishly. He thought it was better not to be nosy, and quickly followed after.
Steward Yuan also walked in a few steps behind him.
Feng Nianchen wanted to see how she administers the acupuncture.
The technique of acupuncture and moxibustion has long been lost. No one in Nalan Kingdom knows it, and there are no doctors in other countries who know it either. He doesn't understand how Wen Nuan came to learn of it.
Steward Yuan followed up to supervise her.
A needle can sometimes kill a person.
Although it was found that Wen Nuan was just a small peasant girl who was born and raised locally and has never even been to Fucheng, who knows if there is a secret identity that has been hid deeply by some people? They still have to guard against her.
This area is a bit close to the fiefdom of the Huainan King after all.
Wen Nuan glanced at the two people who followed step for step at the same time, and patiently said: "Seventeenth Brother, I can't be disturbed while I give acupuncture."
Nalan Jinnian glanced at the two of them: "Get out."
Feng Nianchen: "I just want to see this long-lost acupuncture technique! And when I have learned something from the little girl, I can also help you with acupuncture, right?
Steward Yuan: "This humble one will stay and see if I can help."
Nalan Jinnian didn't speak any more and just looked at him.
"Yes." Steward Yuan replied respectfully and immediately lowered his head, then retreated.
Feng Nianchen is crazy obsessed with medical skills, he really wants to see!
He glanced at Nalan Jinnian, the man's eyes were cold and impatient, and he looked at him with an iceberg face.
Forget it, he didn't dare to really offend Nalan Jinnian, he could only give up.
But Wen Nuan said: "Wait, this Young Master is a doctor? Then you can stay and help!"
Wen Nuan is thinking that tomorrow morning, there are several acupuncture points that need treatment, so that the effect will be better.
But she has to sell snails tomorrow morning, so she has no time to come.
She will teach him for awhile, that way she won’t have to worry about morning treatment, just come in the afternoon.
Feng Nianchen's eyes lit up: "Yes, I am a doctor! My name is Feng Nianchen, have you heard of me? You can call me Brother Feng."
He is a well-known genius doctor of Fengxiao Hospital. Since she knows medical skills, she must have heard his own name.
He waited for her little eyes to be filled with admiration!
"Never heard of you. Are you famous?" Wen Nuan didn't even up look at him. Her head was lowered as she fiddled with the gold needles, and she responded casually, with an extremely perfunctory attitude.
Feng Nianchen: "…"
