Chapter 38: Ear Needles
After breakfast the next day, Jin Yi ordered someone to carry all the things into the car, although there were not many things, but there were two more maids, Qian Mo and Tingyan.
She thought all the way about how to tell the old lady about it when she went back, and Jinru, who was still with her, spoke.
Jin Ru knew that she couldn't resist her, so she had to follow her back to the Qingrong Marquis Mansion, but today she was in a good mood, "Twenty-six is the cold meeting of the Zhenguo Mansion, and I received an invitation yesterday." I guess your share is at home, too. This is the last banquet of the year, in previous years, the cold party, all the noble families in the city have to go, not only to invite the female dependents, even the children of the family, are also proud to be invited, this year I heard that even the prince and the king of the East China Sea are coming. ”
"King of the East Sea?" Jin Yi asked her.
"It is the eldest son of the emperor born to Concubine Jingrong, who is only twenty years old this year, and was crowned the throne last year."
Jin Yi nodded.
Today's saint is said to be a long-term emperor, so in addition to the eldest son born to the side concubine Jingrong when he was the crown prince, there are only the two sons of the prince born to the queen. He has been spoiling Jiang for ten years, and the other concubines are like decorations, turning a blind eye. Although the old ministers in the court were also worried about the weakness of the emperor's heir, none of them came out to persuade them. It can be imagined from this that Empress Jiang's status is really solid.
Back at the Qingrong Marquis Mansion, Jin Yi did not return to the room, and went directly to Fuxi Hall.
Old Madam Qin was lying on the couch in the inner room, her face was a little pale, but she was very happy to see Jin Yi come back, "Sister Yi came back so early, why don't you stay for a few more days to relax?" After saying that, he coughed lightly.
Jin Yi stepped forward, sat on the embroidery pier that Yingxue had moved, held Mrs. Qin's hand and said, "Ancestor, what's wrong with you?" ”
Ying Xue answered on the side: "The old ancestor had a cough last night. ”
Jin Yi hurriedly asked, "Have you invited the imperial doctor to come and see you?" ”
Old Madam Qin has a fate, if there is a disease, you can ask someone from the Tai Hospital to treat it, and it is usually a doctor who is familiar with the Qin family.
Ying Xue replied, "Imperial Doctor Zhang came to take a look, and I just took the medicine after prescribing it." ”
Old Madam Qin smiled and said, "It's okay, it's too sick." I'm getting better after taking the medicine. ”
When Mrs. Qin was pregnant with the fourth master, she felt a cold, and she almost couldn't even save the fetus at that time. Therefore, Jinyi's fourth uncle Qin Zhiran was born weak, which was the cold brought by the womb. The old lady also fell ill with a cough at that time, and at the end of winter, she coughed restlessly at night and could not sleep steadily.
Jin Yi frowned, looking a little worried, "Ancestor, let your granddaughter take a look for you." Although the doctor prescribed medicine, you are now old, and taking too much medicine will hurt your origin. I'll take care of it for you, take some medicinal food, and then mix it with the medicine of the Imperial Doctor, and it will get better quickly. ”
A gentle smile appeared on Old Madam Qin's slightly haggard face, her eyes were full of kindness, and she smiled and nodded in agreement.
Jin Yi gently put the old lady's hand flat on the brocade mattress, stretched out the three fingers of her right hand and gently put it on the three inches of the ruler, and quietly cut a few breaths.
Her expression softened, her hands stretched out to the old lady's face, and she chuckled, "Old Ancestor, let me take a closer look at you. ”
With that, he held her face lightly with both hands, and his thumb touched the bottom of her eyes very lightly, and then downward, caressing the side of her neck. The movements are gentle and slow, and the smile on his face is always gentle.
Ordinary doctors can diagnose diseases just by diagnosing the pulse through the veil, and they don't dare to look at it carefully like this. Old Madam Qin saw that she behaved gently and so carefully, and her heart swelled with love, this child had suffered outside for so many years, but she was still so attentive to herself, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty in her heart, and looked at her with even more pity.
Jin Yi put down his hand and chuckled: "Old Ancestor, I think it's because I've had a cold in the past two days. But how often do you get up at night? ”
Ying Xue nodded again and again, and hurriedly said: "But, at dinner yesterday, the ancestor saw that the silver silk winter melon dumplings were delicious, and after eating two of them, he said that he had a bad stomach at night, and he got up two or three times." Then I caught a cold, and I coughed in the middle of the night. ”
Jin Yi nodded, "The ancestors experienced cold in their lungs in their early years, and the winter melon was cold, so it is not suitable to eat more. He smiled and comforted her: "I'll give you two doses of ear acupuncture, if you feel tightness in your chest, press it lightly for a while, it will be more comfortable." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and instructed Qiao Wei to go to her room to get the medicine box.
Qiao Wei answered and walked quickly. After a while, he came back with a two-foot-long rosewood box in his arms. She put the medicine box on the case, searched for a moment inside, and brought it to Jinyi's side.
A white porcelain bottle was opened, and Jin Yi poured out two small black medicinal seeds from it, and said to Mrs. Qin: "This is the king does not leave the seeds, which itself has the effect of invigorating blood and passing through menstruation. ”
Qiao Wei took out a small soft silk, cut off two pieces the size of half a small fingernail, smeared some ointment on one side, and handed it over.
Jin Yi lightly put the medicine seed on the silk and said to Mrs. Qin: "You lie down, rest assured, it doesn't hurt at all." ”
With four fingers behind and thumb in front, gently rub on her ear, touch the acupuncture points, and gently put the silk on it. The same was posted on the other ear.
Jin Yi motioned to Yingxue on the side to take a closer look, "If the ancestor has a tightness in his chest and wants to cough, he will be much more comfortable if he gently uses his thumb to rub the ear needle." ”
Old Madam Qin felt that the place where the medicinal seeds were attached to her ears was a little sour and numb as soon as she was gently rubbed. After a while, I really felt that the chest tightness had been greatly reduced, and the throat was no longer fishy and sweet, and it was much better than before, and I was very happy in my heart, looking at Jinyi, my eyes were full of relief:
"My sister Yi knows so much medical skills."
Jin Yi lowered his head and smiled, "After all, I have studied all these years...... Now it is not in vain to be able to do some filial piety for the ancestors. ”
When Jin Yi entered the house, the ladies in the house had not yet arrived. When she checked the old lady's pulse, the housekeeper in the old lady's room, Mama Song, blocked the door and asked everyone to sit in the hall first.
Later, when Qiao Wei hurried out, and hurried back with a box in her arms, Xu couldn't sit still, so she gently lifted the curtain and came in, not daring to make a sound, just standing aside and watching quietly.
Jin Yi knew that she was behind her, so she only pretended not to know, and secretly sneered in her heart.
She didn't want the people of the Qin Mansion to know that she was proficient in medical skills, she just wanted to keep a low profile and hide clumsily in front of people, but she didn't expect to see Old Madam Qin fall ill as soon as she came back.
Jin Yi has been home these days, and she has seen that her grandmother is tolerant and protective of her everywhere, although she still has some slight suspicions, but in fact, her grandmother is quite sincere to her. I gradually have some attachment to this old ancestor.
Xu Shi only felt frightened when he saw it from behind. She had never heard of the use of ear acupuncture to cure diseases, and when she saw that she only rubbed it a few times, the old lady said that she felt much better, and it was even more effective than taking the medicine of the imperial doctor.
I couldn't help but feel complicated, amazed and greedy. If such a person can be used by his daughter in the future, he will definitely be a tiger in the harem. Suddenly, I thought of the fifth lady of the Huan family again, and the heat in my heart was like being poured with a bucket of cold water, and I was anxious and irritable.
