Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Mrs. Li came here today for three things.

First, give Xiao a comprehensive acupuncture examination and treatment, second, carefully examine the daily schoolwork of the disciples, and third... she is still considering whether she needs to mention it to Xiao.

After checking Xiao's pulse, Mrs. Li frowned, "You should have been in good spirits these days, but your complexion has become worse, and you are so angry. This is not a good sign."

Mrs. Xiao sighed helplessly. She didn't want to reveal her emotions in front of Mrs. Li. Unexpectedly, just by taking her pulse, she knew that she had some difficult-to-resolve knot in her heart recently.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Mrs. Li sat down next to Xiao and asked with concern.

"It's not a big deal, actually. It's just some little things at home that made me upset." Xiao forced a smile that was uglier than crying.

Nine out of ten times, life is not as we wish, and every family has its own problems.

Moreover, what she was worried about was not something beautiful, and there was no point in talking about it.

Mrs. Li looked at her disapprovingly. "What family doesn't have some agitation? Why do you take it so seriously? If you can handle it, don't be agitated. If you can't solve it, don't be quick to get angry. Anyway, the sky won't fall."

"On the contrary, I am not as broad-minded as you." Xiao said with a smile.

Mr. Li and his wife were so close that they didn't even take in a concubine. How could she be like her husband...

There are some things that cannot be compared between people.

Mrs. Li saw that Xiao didn't want to talk too much about family matters, so she didn't continue asking.

When giving her acupuncture, she saw that Xiao still had small pimples on her head, so she comforted her by saying, "Isn't Lord Wei here? There is a big tree to enjoy the shade, so why are you so restless? You don't need to worry about small things, and you have men for big things, right?"

"Our old man? It's hard to even see him once." Xiao smiled self-deprecatingly.

"It seems that Mr. Wei is also a workaholic." Mrs. Li's eyes flashed. It seems that Xiao didn't know what Wei Zhong was doing outside. As expected, there was no need to tell her about the third thing.

Xiao forced a smile that was uglier than crying, "Isn't he just a workaholic?"

This tone seemed to be full of resentment. Mrs. Li sighed slightly in her heart. She stopped asking questions and focused her full attention on treating Xiao.

After finishing acupuncture for Xiao, Mrs. Li was about to ask where Xiao Bingyan was when she heard rustling footsteps coming from outside the painting screen. She tilted her neck to look over and saw Xiao Bingyan's bright face appear in her field of vision.

"Mom, Master." Xiao Bingyan was very happy to know that her master had come. She bowed with an expression that could not hide the joy on her face.

Xiao grumbled at her and said to Mrs. Li, "She has been reading your two books these days and has done nothing else. She also doesn't allow anyone to disturb her."

Mrs. Li asked with a smile, "How do you see it?"

Xiao Bingyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she replied solemnly, "I've read the book. I understand some parts, but not others."

"What's not clear?" Mrs. Li had not expected so much from a disciple like Xiao Bingyan, but now she couldn't help feeling pleasantly surprised. It was possible that Xiao Bingyan came in late, but she was very talented and might achieve great things in the future.

"These two books all contain case histories and methods suitable for acupuncture. What if a patient happens to be not suitable for acupuncture? How can we know when inserting the needle into the acupoints that the patient is not suitable for acupuncture?" Xiao Bingyan asked confusedly.

She had already finished reading the two books and memorized the true contents firmly in her mind, but at the same time, many unclear questions kept arising in her mind.

Those were all things she had never thought about before, but for some reason, when she saw the detailed and true content in the book, she couldn't help but think more about it.

Mrs. Li laughed and said, "Not all patients are suitable for acupuncture. If a patient feels dizzy and stuffy after acupuncture, or even has nausea, vomiting and convulsions from time to time, then these are symptoms that cannot be treated with acupuncture. I will teach you these gradually later. I showed you those two books because I wanted you to understand them first. It seems that you have a good understanding.

Starting tomorrow, you will come to my place and squeeze out two hours every day to study the magical acupuncture points seriously and diligently. Only when you know all the acupuncture points on your body will you be qualified to hold acupuncture points."

Xiao Bingyan's eyes suddenly brightened.

This was something she had been looking forward to for days.

After reading these two books, she kept thinking about when she could go further and study more seriously.

Now that the master is going to teach her personally, how can she not feel happy?

Not to mention two hours, even if it was a few hours or even a day, she would be very happy.

"Master, when is the best time for me to come to your place?" Xiao Bingyan asked.

"Don't you still have to go to the women's college? Go to the college for formal classes in the morning, and then come to my place in the afternoon." Mrs. Li said with a smile.

I feel relieved about Xiao Bingyan's eagerness to learn. I am not afraid that her brain nerves are slow to react, but I am afraid that she will not study hard and seriously. Xiao Bingyan does not have an innate talent, but she really likes to learn acupuncture, which will definitely save her time and effort in the future.

Oh! I almost forgot that she is going to the Women's College. The college should start classes tomorrow. How can she not go?

"Mom..." Xiao Bingyan wanted to act coquettishly with Xiao Shi, and she didn't have to go to the academy.

Although Xiao Shi did not firmly oppose Xiao Bingyan's learning acupuncture, she did not agree that she should neglect her other daily studies. "Just listen to your master. Go to the academy in the morning and learn acupuncture in the afternoon."

A hint of helplessness flashed across Xiao Bingyan's face, "Yes, mother."

After Mrs. Li told Xiao Bingyan what to prepare for tomorrow, she immediately left.

Something happened at home, so she couldn't stay and have dinner with Xiao today.

"Master, I'll take you there." Without waiting for Xiao's instructions, Xiao Bingyan stood up and took Mrs. Li out.

Xiao Bingyan and Mrs. Li walked side by side and asked in detail about Xiao's condition.

"Your mother has been in a bad mood these past few days. Her condition has improved after much hardship. She can't be too sad, or it will be bad for her health." Mrs. Li said softly, "Why is your father in a worse mood when he came to see her in person?"

"If my father hadn't come, mother might have been in a better mood. Even though my father came to Jinyun, except for the first day, I haven't been able to see him until now, and I don't know what he is busy with." Xiao Bingyan said this with a deliberate attitude.

She guessed that since Wei Zhong was trying to build relationships and connections in Jinyun City, he would definitely not neglect Lord Li. She didn't want her master to misunderstand that her gradual closeness with her mother was due to Wei Zhong.

Mrs. Li had a gloomy face and nodded gently, "You should persuade your mother more to be at ease and not keep everything deep in your heart."

"I know. I will advise mother not to worry too much." Xiao Bingyan was most worried that Xiao's illness would be affected by Wei Zhong's arrival.

After exiting the spacious front door, Mrs. Li turned around and looked at Xiao Bingyan, and said in a lowered voice, "There is something I wanted to talk to your mother about, but your mother's health...

Bingyan, you are a big kid now, and you already know some things very well, so I won't beat around the bush with you. Your father went to look for the old man the other day, and the reason was simply because he hoped that the old man could serve the prince.

However, our Li family has never participated in any court disputes in person, and the old man is only a marquis, and he has left the capital, so I think he is not worthy of the prince's attention. We understand what Marquis Wei means, but..."

Mrs. Li paused, "In fact, I only found out about this the day before yesterday. It turns out that Marquis Wei had already sent someone to contact the old man a while ago. After the old man declined, Marquis Wei seemed very angry..."

"Master." Xiao Bingyan's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she was filled with anger towards Wei Zhong.

She knew best what tricks Wei Zhong used to win over Lord Li.

He has always been a gentle and upright gentleman first, and then a villain.

She couldn't help but interrupt Madam Li's words and whispered, "Your Majesty is in the prime of his life. Although he has been crowned as the heir, we don't know what will happen in the future. No matter what my father does or says, Lord Li doesn't have to pay attention. Master, at this time, it is best to stay out of it and be completely loyal to His Majesty. I understand this principle and Lord Li's approach."

Mrs. Li looked at Xiao Bingyan deeply.

At that time, in the side room of the temple, Wuxin heard her talking to Xiao who lived only a few steps away next door, and he knew that such a little girl was not an ordinary person.

Now that she could say this, Mrs. Li felt that she had not misjudged the man.

"Bingyan, it's good that you can think this way. No matter what happens in the future, I hope that the relationship between you and me as master and disciple will not change." Mrs. Li said.

Xiao Bingyan bowed and said, "Of course not, Master."

What she was most worried about was that the master would become estranged from her because of Wei Zhong, and would no longer carefully treat her mother or teach her acupuncture. Now that she could talk about it and not be influenced by Wei Zhong, Xiao Bingyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I think Li Yuyan's relentless interrogation of her that day was probably because of what Wei Zhong had done to Lord Li!
