My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 257 The Six Sworn Brothers Have Arrived
Doctor Zhuang approached with a smile, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Sixth Miss, do you still remember when you asked me to treat the Third Young Master of the Marquis of Lin'an's mansion?"

Xin Nian really doesn't remember.

She was busy cultivating and leading the team, and she also wanted to question Xiao Jinzhi. How could she remember so many trivial matters?
Xin Nian closed the door behind her, not intending to invite Doctor Zhuang in for a chat.

No one except family members and their team has ever been invited into this small house. Many things inside are quite modern, which could cause some unspeakable trouble, so it's best not to let too many people come into contact with it.

She led Doctor Zhuang into the large tent next door, took out a pot of brewed chrysanthemum tea, and poured a cup for Doctor Zhuang, saying, "You've worked hard these past few days, Lao Zhuang."

"Oh, thank you so much, Sixth Miss." Doctor Zhuang's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the tea. "It's no trouble at all. I can earn points too."

"What's wrong with the third young master of the Marquis of Lin'an's mansion?" Xin Nian picked up her porcelain cup and took a sip. "Is he unable to recover?"

"Oh, don't even mention it," Doctor Zhuang sighed. "That third young master's stomach ailment is still quite serious. If it's not treated properly, I'm afraid..."

Doctor Zhuang leaned closer to Xin Nian and whispered, "Her life is in danger."

"That serious?" Xin Nian was taken aback. "So you mean...?"

"If you have some free time, Sixth Miss, why don't you go and take a look?"

Xin Nian felt a little unhappy when she thought of the faces of the Marquis of Lin'an and his wife. "His symptoms have probably worsened due to fatigue from the journey and the high temperature and humidity."

Is your tongue coating yellow?

Dr. Zhuang nodded, "Yes, yes, I also think it's due to damp-heat stagnation. The tongue coating is yellow and greasy, the pulse is slippery and rapid, the nausea is worsening, the stomach pain is urgent, and there is also dry mouth and bitter taste, but no desire to drink much."

"Oh, it's nothing!" Xin Nian waved her hand dismissively. "It's not a serious illness. Just prescribe some medicine to clear heat and dampness, regulate qi and soothe the stomach. You won't die, don't be nervous."

As he spoke, he took out several kinds of herbs from his spatial storage. "Dried tangerine peel, licorice root, poria cocos, and prepared pinellia ternata, that should be about it. Please prepare some medicine for him."

"Oh, add some more Coptis chinensis." Xin Laoliu took out a packet of Coptis chinensis and stuffed it into Doctor Zhuang's hand.

Add even more Coptis chinensis! Who's going to suffer from this bitterness? Doctor Zhuang rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky.

This shows just how much the young girl wants to take revenge on the Marquis of Lin'an.

"Although Coptis chinensis has the effects of clearing heat and drying dampness, purging fire and detoxifying, it is cold in nature and is not suitable for Young Master Lu's stomach condition."

Xin Nian pouted, "Then you can do whatever you want."

If we can't fool Laozi and Zhuangzi, then let's give up.

Anyway, I won't die, so let him treat me as he sees fit.

"Oh, by the way, the other day, Zhou Shaoqing also came to see me for a medical consultation and even bought two doses of medicine on credit. What do you think, Sixth Miss?"

"What am I looking at?" Xin Nian put down her left leg and said irritably, "You're going to treat me even if I pay on credit? What a sucker."

"But he said he was your sworn brother."

So they've come to collect a debt from her!

Xin Nian was speechless. "Nonsense, where did I get a sworn brother?"

Wait a minute? Sworn brother? Xin Nian blinked. "What did you call him?"

"Zhou Shaoqing! Zhou Linchuan, Zhou Shaoqing!"

Xin Nian gritted her little steel teeth.

Are you crazy? Who knows who?

Just then, Chi Jue lifted the curtain and entered. He first gave her a cold laugh, then said sarcastically, "That really is complete. Five of the six sworn brothers from the Peach Garden Oath have arrived. Except for my eldest brother, all your sworn brothers are here."

"Scumbag woman." He left a tray of breakfast and turned to leave.

Xin Nian: ...

"Sixth Miss, what about the medicine money your sworn brother owes?" Doctor Zhuang looked her up and down with a comical expression that seemed to say, "You're not planning to renege on your debt, are you?" Xin Nian was furious and casually pointed to the medicinal herbs spread out on the table. "These leftovers are all yours."

Doctor Zhuang beamed with joy as he tidied up the medicinal herbs on the table. "Thank you, Sixth Miss."

After having breakfast, Xin Nian went out to find Zhou Linchuan. She wanted to ask him in person how he dared to use her name to deceive Doctor Zhuang.

The little girl wandered through the tent area, stopping everyone she met to chat, so she didn't have a moment to herself for almost half an hour...

When they reached the edge of the woods, they saw Marquis Dingxing, Shang Weiyi, running up to them with a smile. "Niannian, my dear niece, you've come to see us so early?"

Xin Nian stared at him expressionlessly. "I was just taking a walk. I didn't mean to look for you."

Shang Weiyi pretended not to hear and continued to speak warmly to Xin Nian, "I haven't seen my niece for the past few days. Is something bothering you? Your aunt's illness has improved a lot, and she keeps saying she wants to see you and thank you in person."

"And Xiao Zhuo's hand has also improved a lot, thanks to the doctor you found for her, my dear niece."

"Oh, by the way, have you had breakfast yet? Why don't you come over to our place? You can talk to your aunt for a bit."

Xin Nian quickly waved her hand, "I've eaten, I've eaten. My lord, I have something to attend to. Let's talk again next time."

After saying that, he quickly turned and slipped away.

Marquis Dingxing's ability to chat with anyone for three hundred sentences is just too overly familiar...

Xin Nian walked around the perimeter and passed by the place where the Marquis of Lin'an and his wife were arguing over trivial matters.

The Marquis of Lin'an seemed very angry, smashed a wooden basin, and stormed off.

Xin Nian didn't listen carefully and didn't bother to pay attention. She walked over and passed by the Marquis of Lin'an face to face.

The Marquis's face was full of anger, his brows furrowed.

Lady Hou paused in her sobbing, turned to look at her departing figure, and secretly twisted the handkerchief in her hand.

How could this be?

Everything was fine before, but now, the exiled Duke Xin's mansion is thriving, while their Lin'an Marquis's mansion has plummeted. This contrast makes her feel as if a million ants are gnawing at her heart, causing her great distress.

"Auntie." A soft voice interrupted her myriad thoughts.

Marquis Lin'an wiped away his tears with a handkerchief, forced a smile, and raised his head, "Yanran is here."

"Auntie, I brought some congee for Brother Jingxian. Is his stomach ailment any better today?"

Lady Hou forced a smile. "Sigh, I'll ask Doctor Zhuang again later."

"Auntie, don't worry too much. Medicine is scarce these days. I'll ask my father to gather some more grain and see if we can buy some usable medicine from the regimental commander."

"You've put your heart into this." Madam Hou wiped her eyes and patted Yan Yanran's hand with satisfaction.

Yan Yanran smiled gently, picked up the small jar in her hand, and said, "Then I'll go and see Brother Jingxian first."

Lady Lin'an smiled and nodded, glancing kindly at Yan Yanran.

The latter, with a gentle and docile smile on his lips, lifted the straw mat while holding the small jar.

I don't know where those tents in front came from. Judging from their attire, most of them are just ordinary people, nothing special.

It's ridiculous that they can stay in tents so peacefully, while Brother Jingxian, this noble young master of the Marquis's mansion, can only set up a simple straw mat shed for temporary shelter.

This is too frustrating.

Yan Yanran thought for a moment, then walked over to Lu Jingxian's straw mat and glanced at him, her face full of tender affection.

"Brother Jingxian, how are you feeling today?"

Young Master Lu is awake.
