CHAPTER 194: CHAPTER 194: MIRACLE DOCTOR’S CONSULTATION

"How is everyone at home? You mentioned last time that my brother woke up. It’s been quite some time now; is he able to walk?"

She was indeed concerned.

Seeing this, Mrs. Dong did not hold back and immediately responded.

"Much better, much better. Thanks to the care of Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law, he can now walk around the courtyard on his own."

Lin Muzhi, being young, recovered better than they expected.

Initially, they thought it would take about half a year for his head injury to fully recover.

Now, it seems it might only take three to four months.

This is also thanks to the golden needle method of Mrs. Yun, which indeed has a miraculous effect on treating head injuries.

"That’s great! His Majesty has already spoken to me. After spring arrives, he will have my brother report to the Imperial College. Initially, we were worried about whether his body could handle it, but with his current condition, it’s naturally good news!"

Lin Wanyi’s words left Mrs. Dong quite astonished.

The opportunity they had long awaited had finally arrived.

Ever since moving out of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, everything seemed to go their way.

Her husband got promoted, and their residence was being renovated systematically.

Mu Zhi was saved, and the Dong Family got their status back.

This sequence of events was overwhelming, and now her youngest son got such a great opportunity; how could she not be delighted?

Excitedly clutching Lin Wanyi’s hand, she said.

"Is this true?"

"His Majesty’s words are golden and wouldn’t be wrong. Mother, rest assured, just take good care of brother when you return. Make sure he fully recovers before he goes to school."

"Sure, sure, I will definitely do that!"

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, then someone came in from outside.

It was none other than Nanny Ji, who served the Second Princess.

Upon hearing the divine doctor who was going to treat the Second Princess had arrived, she rushed over.

Lin Wanyi wouldn’t let her conversation delay important matters, so she called her in.

"Greetings, young mistress."

"No need for such formalities, Nanny Ji."

Then she introduced Mrs. Yun, the second aunt, to Nanny Ji.

"This is the Divine Doctor Yun who will be treating the princess. Nanny, please have the wet nurse prepare everything. When Doctor Dou arrives, he will consult for the Second Princess."

"Yes, your servant obeys."

The place for consultation was still arranged in a side room.

The Second Princess had just woken up and was in good spirits.

Mrs. Yun examined her thoroughly before nodding slightly.

"The Second Princess’s recovery is better than I expected. Although she might grow slower than other children, with careful teaching, she should learn."

Upon hearing this, a heavy stone in Lin Wanyi’s heart finally settled.

Initially, they only wished for the Second Princess to survive.

Now, they hoped she could live a normal life.

Mrs. Yun’s words undoubtedly made everyone happy.

Though it may be difficult, there is hope.

The people serving her now are all meticulous and attentive.

Given time, she might still be able to be like the other children of the Imperial Family.

Doctor Dou also agreed.

If the injuries in her head were severe, she might not even accidentally move her hands and feet.

Yet now, the Second Princess was lively and active, even able to express emotions with crying and laughing—good signs of recovery.

So, after thorough discussion with Mrs. Yun, they decided that a needle treatment once a month would suffice.

They planned to evaluate the situation again when the Second Princess turned one year old.

Having made this decision, Nanny Ji and the wet nurse unfolded a brocade quilt for the Second Princess.

Both being her closest caregivers, the Second Princess had no resistance.

Mrs. Yun acted swiftly and skillfully; the gold needle pierced and was withdrawn without any reaction from the princess, not even showing a trace of bleeding.

Her skills and technique were so admirable that even Doctor Dou was envious.

Not to mention Nanny Ji and the wet nurse.

The wet nurse had seen Mrs. Yun before, but it was Nanny Ji’s first time.

Seeing everyone avoid talking about the month they desperately saved the Second Princess, the wet nurse remained silent and continued with her duties.

Almost half an incense stick’s time passed, and just as the Second Princess began to show signs of irritation, Mrs. Yun finished her acupuncture.

Seeing this, Nanny Ji immediately wrapped the Second Princess warmly.

Her body was weak and couldn’t endure the wind and cold.

After Mrs. Yun stopped, she had a slight sweat on her forehead.

Seeing this, Mrs. Dong handed over a handkerchief, matching the demeanor of a servant lady.

Doctor Dou had met Mrs. Dong before, but now he didn’t recognize her.

Clearly, Mrs. Dong’s disguise was thorough.

"For the next few days, be careful not to bathe the Second Princess to avoid catching cold. If she feels very itchy, boil some hot water and add a little ginger to wipe her simply. After she sweats for a few times, then do other things."

"Understood, your servant knows."

Nanny Ji and the wet nurse carefully remembered Mrs. Yun’s words.

They wouldn’t dare neglect them.

Then they draped a large cloak over Nanny Ji, wrapping the Second Princess tightly inside, ensuring no wind could reach her, and returned to the inner courtyard.

Meanwhile, Doctor Dou waited in the side room to check on the Second Prince’s health.

Lin Wanyi, however, wanted to talk more with her mother.

Doctor Dou, being perceptive, smiled and said.

"Young mistress and Second Madam seldom have the chance to meet; you should first return to the main courtyard. After treating the Second Prince, I will report back."

The Second Prince was eating and drinking well, sleeping soundly.

So there weren’t any major issues; it was just a simple routine check-up.

Thinking it over, Lin Wanyi didn’t insist on staying, so she said.

"Then many thanks to Doctor Dou."

Then she took her second aunt and mother back to the main courtyard.

This time, the three of them could chat for a while longer.

Just like before, Lin Wanyi shared all the little things around her with her mother, making Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Yun laugh.

As if they were visiting a daughter who had married out.

Filled with both worries and relief.

"Now in the traveling palace, you’re on your own and have to care for two children. You must take care of yourself too, understand?"

Mrs. Dong instructed.

But Mrs. Yun was reminded of something, though she swallowed her words.

It was good to have a few peaceful days, better not to bother her with outside matters.

With this in mind, she said to Lin Wanyi.

"It’s about time; we should leave the palace."

She was ordered into the palace to treat the Second Princess, not to chat leisurely with Lin Wanyi.

One must remain cautious about this, lest they delay the hour and give others a chance to find fault.

Lin Wanyi was faring somewhat well in the palace; it wouldn’t be good to get caught up in such matters.

Though reluctant, Mrs. Dong understood Mrs. Yun’s good intentions.

So after more instructions, she left the palace with Mrs. Yun.
