Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

As soon as the girl from the Xie family was sent away, Xiao He came to report to Xiao Bingyan that the doctor who was treating Xiao had arrived and was now in the hall.

Xiao Bingyan didn't say anything and immediately ran to the hall.

Xiao Bingyan had someone invite Doctor Zhuang here. He was the most famous doctor in Jinyun. She heard from others that he was very good at treating difficult-to-eradicate diseases. Xiao Bingyan held out a glimmer of hope that he could cure Xiao's illness.

The so-called miracle doctors all have their own peculiar personalities. As Doctor Zhuang's reputation gradually became more famous, his temper also became more and more outrageous. If it weren't for the fact that the person who invited him here today was a wealthy and prominent family in the capital, he would not have agreed to see the patient so easily.

He examined Xiao's pulse for a long time, and then asked obvious questions such as what it felt like when the illness flared up, when the symptoms occurred, etc.

Xiao Bingyan listened attentively and looked at Doctor Zhuang. She realized that what he said did not sound like a joke, nor like an ordinary crappy doctor, so she felt relieved deep down.

"Madam's illness is caused by an accidental infection and a serious injury that is difficult to completely repair. This has caused the meridians to become disordered, and that is why you often have headaches. I will prescribe some medicine for you to dispel the wind and evil, and then carefully regulate the serious injury that is difficult to completely repair." Doctor Zhuang stroked his beard and spoke slowly.

When Xiao was in the capital, the imperial physician who examined her said the same thing...

Xiao Bingyan felt helpless deep down, but she also hoped that Doctor Zhuang could find a feasible method different from the imperial physician to treat her mother's stubborn illness.

"Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Zhuang. Xia Yuezhu, please send Doctor Zhuang back." Xiao said softly. In fact, deep down in her heart, she did not have much hope that Doctor Zhuang could completely cure her chronic illness.

"The old man takes his leave first." Doctor Zhuang bowed his hands and followed Xia Yuezhu out of the main room.

Xiao Bingyan sat down next to Xiao, and gently pressed her face against her arm. "Mother, you will definitely get better, for sure."

Xiao patted Xiao Bingyan's back and brushed off the topic. "Although we have come to Jinyun City to stay temporarily, you cannot fall behind in your daily studies. I plan to hire a teacher to teach you your daily studies. If there is a good needlework master here, you should continue to learn needlework."

For a long time, the Xiao family has attached great importance to Xiao Bingyan's education. Although she is not particularly outstanding in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is still presentable. As for needlework... Xiao Bingyan's needlework is top-notch. Many ladies and girls from aristocratic families are amazed after seeing her needlework skills. They say that her embroidery skills are outstanding and the flowers, birds and animals she embroiders are so lifelike.

It made no difference to Xiao Bingyan whether to invite the gentleman or not, but she still agreed with a smile.

After coming out of the main room, Xiao Bingyan returned to her own small study, took out a precious medical book and began to read it.

She had just remembered the day before and brought back the precious medical book from the capital. At first, she thought that by reading more of the medical book, she might be able to find a way to completely cure Xiao.

"Miss, Miss Ye from the capital has written you a letter." Xing'er walked in happily with small steps.

Xiao Bingyan's eyes moved. Was it the letter Ye Ziyi gave her?

"Miss?" Xing'er felt something was wrong when she saw Xiao Bingyan looked unhappy.

"Give me the letter." Xiao Bingyan took the letter from Xing'er's hand and opened it slowly.

In Beijing, she had several close friends, and Ye Ziyi was her best and the one she trusted the most. Later, she suffered a miserable fate and her status was not as good as it is now. Some people avoided her as much as possible. However, there were only two people who stayed with her, still treated her as their best friend and had deep feelings for her, and often helped her secretly.

Ye Ziyi was one of them, but after she became a concubine in the palace, Ye Ziyi became distant from her and they had no contact from then on.

“If…” Xiao Bingyan whispered softly, her eyelids moist, and she solemnly swore in secret that she would not let anyone leave her this time, and she would definitely not let the life experience of her previous life repeat the same mistakes.

Ye Ziyi wrote three whole pages of letter paper, telling Xiao Bingyan about her experiences in the past few days in a detailed and clear manner. She also asked Xiao Bingyan to tell her about the fun places in Jinyun City and told her to come and stay for a few days if she had the chance.

She also said that she was not used to playing and fighting without Xiao Bingyan, and asked Xiao Bingyan to write to her from time to time.

Seeing Ye Ziyi's letter, Xiao Bingyan smiled slightly. Reading what was in the letter, Xiao Bingyan seemed to see the cheerful, naughty and lovely Ye Ziyi, and a bit of nostalgia grew in her heart.

She happily replied to Ye Ziyi's letter, but she didn't write much. Moreover, her memory of this place was very vague, and she had not been to other places yet.

After writing the letter and asking Xing'er to deliver it, Xiao Bingyan went back to the inner room to sleep for a while. When she woke up, the sun was setting and Xing'er went in to help her wash up.

"Girl, the madam just sent Sister Xiaohe here, and asked you to come over and have dinner together later." Xing'er said softly.

Xiao Bingyan responded softly, and thinking of Anxiang who was still recuperating, she asked, "How is Anxiang?"

"Yesterday night, Xiaobi was out of breath all night. She didn't have a lingering high fever, and this morning she looked much better." Xing'er said, feeling a little envious and jealous of Xiao Bingyan's concern for her.

"Okay." Xiao Bingyan nodded lightly without saying anything.

Went to the main room to have dinner with Xiao, Xiao Bingyan was thinking about how Xiao felt after taking Doctor Zhuang's medicine? Xiao Bingyan smiled, "I just took a dose, how can I know the effect so quickly? It will take at least three days to know the effect."

Xiao Bingyan thought about it seriously, and realized that she was a little impatient, so she smiled and talked about the letter Ye Ziyi wrote to her.

After dinner, Xiao Bingyan accompanied Xiao to stroll in the small garden outside the spacious courtyard. It was early winter and the climate in Jinyun was a little cool.

As they were talking, there was a burst of noise coming from outside, and Xiao gave Xia Yuezhu a look.

Xia Yuezhu bowed her head slightly and went over to see what was happening.

Less than a moment later, Xia Yuezhu was seen returning hurriedly with small steps, her expression very nervous, but not panicked.

"Madam." Xia Yuezhu walked to Xiao's side and stopped. "A lot of brave soldiers have come outside. They said that they will impose curfew early and send everyone in the city back to their homes. Now they are searching every house carefully."

Xiao remained calm: "What happened?"

Xia Yuezhu said, "They said they were trying to catch a thief and have closed the city wall."

Xiao nodded, her expression straightened, and she gave instructions with concentration, "Tell each maid to go back to her room for a short time. The soldiers may come to this place for a thorough search later. We are all women here, so they won't move too much. Xiao Bingyan, you also go back to your room, and don't come out tonight."

"Yes." Xiao Bingyan sighed inwardly. As expected, it was the same as in her previous life. She remembered that she happened to encounter this incident not long after she arrived in Jinyun.

However, she was hiding in the main room at that time. Now she has experienced a lot and is not panicked.

Xiao Bingyan brought Xing'er back to her own courtyard, "Go and tell others not to come out to work at this time, go back to the house, and also tell Anxiang."

Xing'er bowed and said anxiously, "Yes, Miss."

After all, she was just a maid who had no experience in the boudoir. How could she not be anxious and panic when she happened to encounter such a situation? If she hadn't had the experience of her previous life, how could she be so calm?

Xiao Bingyan smiled slightly and slowly walked back to the house.

When she passed by the beautiful flower beds in the courtyard, she suddenly heard a rustling sound. She stopped and looked to the place where the sound came from, but because the weather was very cold and the flowers were very lush, she could not see anything.

"Come out, I see you." Xiao Bingyan's abdomen tightened and she concentrated and shouted.

After a while, there was nothing happening in the flower garden. Xiao Bingyan smiled coldly, "If you don't come out yet, don't blame me for being rude."

Was it an illusion? Xiao Bingyan laughed secretly in her heart. Just as she was about to leave quickly, a voice begging for forgiveness rang out, "Miss, please don't... I am not a bad person, not a bad person."
