Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

From ancient times to the present, smallpox has been incurable, and countless people have died from measles. Wei Bingyan couldn't figure out how Wei Longrui got infected with measles. A Rui rarely went out, and the person he had the most contact with was Aunt Qiu. How could...

Wei Bingyan asked Bai Binghui to go to the Li Mansion immediately to invite Mrs. Li to come, and asked the worried Xiao to sit outside first.

Xiao's health is not as good as Aunt Qiu's, it would be bad if she got infected.

Bai Binghui quickly invited Mrs. Li over. After taking Wei Longrui's pulse and examining him carefully, she said with a smile, "This is not measles, but just a severe and ugly rash. Don't worry too much."

Aunt Qiu, who had been wiping her tears, heard what Mrs. Li said. She gritted her teeth and sobbed, then let out her last breath. The child was her life, and if anything happened to Arui, she would not live either.

Xiao whispered "Namo Amitabha" with tears of gratitude, "Mrs. Li, thank goodness for having you, otherwise we would really..."

Everyone in the room knew that Wei Longrui did not have measles, and they all looked happy, thank goodness he did not have it!

Mrs. Li wrote out a prescription for treatment and asked someone to get all the herbs immediately.

Xia Yuezhu hurriedly took out the prescription for treatment.

"Bingyan, come here, Bai Binghui, close all the doors and windows in the room. Don't let your young master see the wind." Mrs. Li ordered.

Xiao didn't know what Mrs. Li was going to do, so she could only watch from the side.

Mrs. Li undid Wei Longrui's clothes and said to Wei Bingyan, "This papule is because you didn't pay special attention to it before, so it has caused a serious and dangerous illness. Look, the evil has entered the body, the body is hot, the face and lips are red, and ugly sores have grown on the lips and tongue. The sores are large and dark purple, and the tongue is crimson and dry... You are taking his pulse, his breathing, and his pulse seriously, but you don't have the strength..."

Wei Bingyan looked at Wei Longrui's expression with interest according to what Mrs. Li said, and then tested his body temperature, and then began to take his pulse.

As expected, she blurted out the same thing as her master said, "Select acupuncture to treat the body to reduce fever, dispel wind and dampness, and use acupoints such as Dazhui, Tianqiao, Hegu, Fengshuo, and Sanyinjiao. The pox is light purple, so you need to add the fishy Xuehai to remove the dampness and dryness in the blood... For severe high fever and dizziness, add Xiaoqu and Shixuan to bleed, so as to clear the Ying and cool the blood, and refresh the mind and wake up."

Mrs. Li never thought that Wei Bingyan could come up with a treatment method so quickly. She was filled with surprise and joy. This young disciple was more talented than she had imagined!

"I am giving him acupuncture now, and you can help him!" said Mrs. Li.

Wei Bingyan responded, "Yes, Master!"

After they finished the acupuncture treatment for Wei Longrui and the medicine was ready, Aunt Qiu fed it to her son personally and found that her son's body was not as scalding as before.

"Mrs. Li, thank you so much. I will never forget your kindness in giving me a new life!" Aunt Qiu knew that her son was saved, and she knelt down excitedly and kowtowed to Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li helped her up and said, "Don't say that. It's just a small matter."

Xiao opened her mouth in gratitude, "Your little deed saved my son A Rui's life. When these doctors heard others say it was measles, they were so frightened that they dared not stay here any longer."

"Measles and papules are somewhat similar, and it is normal to accidentally mistake one for the other." Mrs. Li said with a smile. She has also seriously studied the essence of thousands of years of knowledge, otherwise how could she easily distinguish between papules and measles.

Xiao said to Aunt Qiu: "You stay here and take good care of A Rui. Come to me if you have any problems."

"Yes, ma'am!" Aunt Qiu wiped the tears from her eyes and responded softly.

"Mrs. Li, please go to my room and have a cup of strong tea." Xiao said with a smile.

Mrs. Li washed her hands and wiped her slightly sweaty face, then went to the spacious main hall with Mrs. Xiao. Wei Bingyan also washed her hands repeatedly and wiped her face carefully and meticulously. She had heard from her master that after treating a sick person, one must pay special attention to cleaning oneself.

Especially hands, because hands will directly touch sick people, if they are not washed thoroughly, they will be accidentally infected.

After sitting down in the main hall, Xiao asked the maid to pour the fragrant tea, "Fortunately, A Rui is not in danger. It's all my fault that I was busy returning to the capital these days and neglected the child's health."

Mrs. Li took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "You are not always with your child. I can't blame you. It's not a big deal for a child to have a pimple."

Mrs. Xiao sighed slightly. Although Arui was not her biological son, she had watched him grow up. When she found out that he had measles, her heart was in a knot, filled with grief and worry.

This continued until Mrs. Li showed up and said it wasn't measles. Only then did she feel relieved and think, if A Rui really had measles in Jinyun City and there was no way to cure it, how many relatives would use this as an excuse to crucify her?

Maybe even Wei Zhong wouldn't believe her.

Whether Mrs. Li was at her parents' home or after she married into the Li family, the environment at home has always been clean and fresh. At least she doesn't have to deal with so many small movements.

However, that doesn't mean she doesn't know how difficult it is to be the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.

Especially for someone like the Xiao family, if it weren't for the Wei family environment, Bingyan would basically not have developed such a precocious and calm true temperament.

"Since Arui is ill, we definitely cannot return to the capital at this time. I wonder how long it will take for him to recuperate carefully?" Mrs. Xiao asked Mrs. Li hesitantly.

"This...I'm afraid it will take more than a few days. It still depends on the situation after the papules disappear." Mrs. Li said.

Xiao frowned slightly, "That's fine, I'll write a letter back and we'll talk about it in two months."

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "I had originally thought that Yuyan would go to the capital with you guys, but it seems that's not possible."

"Is your son-in-law also planning to go to the capital?" Xiao asked curiously, and couldn't help but glance at Wei Bingyan under her eyelids.

Wei Bingyan didn't notice her mother's slightly helpless look. She frowned slightly. The imperial examination was in midsummer, and Li Yuyan should have gone to the capital to start preparing. Fortunately, she didn't have to go with him, otherwise she didn't know how much effort she would have to put into dealing with him.

"I'm going to take the imperial examination and will leave in two days," said Mrs. Li.

"He will definitely be the top scorer in the imperial examination in the future." Xiao said. She would not be wrong. Li Yuyan was definitely not an ordinary person and his future achievements would be extraordinary.

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "I don't care whether he can win the first prize or not. I just want him to be happy."

After Qingxian said a few words, Mrs. Li went over to check on Wei Longrui's condition. She noticed that he had taken the medicine and lay down, and his fever was gradually subsiding. She smiled and told everyone to relax and wait for the child to wake up, then take another dose of medicine. He should not eat anything too oily for a short period of time, and just some thin porridge would be fine.

He also taught everyone how to avoid infection, and then immediately retreated.

As Mrs. Xiao had many things to do, she did not invite Mrs. Li to have dinner with her.

After Mrs. Li left, Xiao immediately returned to her room and wrote a handwritten letter to the capital, solemnly informing Wei Zhong of Wei Longrui's illness, and postponed her return for two months.

Fifteen days later, a reply came from the capital. Wei Zhong said that he had asked the second wife to continue to be Xiao's housekeeper, and asked Xiao to relax and wait until A Rui recovered before returning to the capital.

Just like that, the things that had been packaged were taken out again, delaying the return journey.

Under Mrs. Li's treatment, Wei Longrui's papules disappeared without a trace, and he became much more energetic. Wei Bingyan no longer went to the women's college for classes, but studied seriously with Mrs. Li every day.

More than two months had passed, and Wei Longrui's papules had fully recovered. Xiao was once again preparing to return to the capital to handle various affairs.

In the end, they set out to return to the capital on the day in Wei Bingyan's memory. That is, they would still happen to meet Shen Rouruo on the way...

Shen Rouruo... Wei Bingyan silently recited her name, with a slightly cold look in her eyes.
