Dream of the Red Chamber: I can upgrade my entries!

Chapter 88 [The Great Physician (Gold)], Lin Daiyu's Hope!

"Little sister, have you been waiting long?"

A moment later, Jia Yan, dressed in a black brocade robe with gold trim, came out from the inner room and asked Xiao Xichun with a smile.

"elder brother."

Xiao Xichun let go of Xiaoxue's hand, flapped her short legs and ran to him, looked up at him with her bright, sparkling eyes.

"Brother is alright, it's all over now."

"From now on, can I stay home and play with my little sister?"

Jia Yan picked up little Xichun and spoke softly.

"it is good."

Little Xichun nodded her head and agreed without even thinking.

Although Lin Daiyu had been playing with her these days, and Yingchun and Tanchun would visit her from time to time, it was still different. She and Jia Yan were blood-related sisters, and the deep-rooted kinship ties could not be severed.

"Is my brother moving?"

"Can Sister Lin and I stay at my brother's house?"

Suddenly, Xiao Xi's words, "Springtime is truly flawless," caught Jia Yan's attention.

"Little Snow."

Jia Yan's expression hardened, and he asked in a deep voice, "What has happened to my sister during her stay at the West Mansion?"

"Master."

Xiaoxue immediately reported: "The steward of Rongguo Mansion has embezzled the expenses of Miss and Miss Lin's courtyard."

"Not only were there no cosmetics, clothes, or jewelry, but the food delivered was also scraps, and sometimes it was even spoiled."

"The maids and servants in the West Mansion, under Zhou Rui's instigation, kept making things difficult for us."

"Later, all expenses were handled through the hospital's accounts, and that's how we stopped being controlled by them."

When this was mentioned, Ruhua, who served Xichun, and Xueyan, who served Lin Daiyu, looked aggrieved. Xueyan was skilled in martial arts and no one dared to provoke her, but they were targeted openly and secretly by those maids and old women and suffered a lot of injustices in silence.

"It is true that good people do not live long, while evil people live for thousands of years."

With a cold and sharp look in his eyes, Jia Yan's face suddenly darkened.

Before setting off, he had already guessed that some people would ignore his words, after all, he was just a minor Tiger General.

But he didn't expect that even worse things would happen. Someone was openly targeting Xiao Xichun. No matter what, Xiao Xichun was a legitimate mistress of the East Mansion, and she was born of the same mother as Jia Yan and Jia Zhen.

Lin Daiyu, this "cousin" living under someone else's roof, was no better off. Without Grandmother Jia's protection, who would take her seriously?

"elder brother."

"They stopped Lin's medication."

Little Xichun said pitifully.

"Ok?"

Slightly taken aback, Jia Yan was somewhat confused: "Medicine, what medicine?"

"Master."

Knowing the inside story, Xiaoxue added, "Miss Lin has always been physically weak and needs to take Ginseng Nourishing Pills to regulate her body."

"When I first entered the mansion, the old lady instructed that the West Mansion should be assigned to me as well."

"Who would have thought that in just one month, the Western Prefecture would stop sending people to deliver ginseng nourishing pills."

"Sister Jingzhe found a famous doctor and prepared some medicine according to the prescription, which barely helped Miss Lin to hold on."

"Oh?"

Raising an eyebrow, Jia Yan turned his gaze to Lin Daiyu: "I have learned some medical skills since I was a child. If you trust me, Sister Lin, let me take your pulse first."

"What are you saying, Second Brother Yan?"

Without hesitation, Lin Daiyu extended her fair and delicate wrist.

Between the two households, who else could she trust besides Jia Yan?
"Hmm." Jia Yan pressed three fingers on Lin Daiyu's pulse at the cunkou point, his expression gradually becoming serious.

The purple entry "Miraculous Healing" grants him medical skills comparable to those of renowned local doctors, allowing him to fully recover even critically ill patients with a '50% increase in survival rate' effect.

Back in Datong, countless wounded soldiers benefited from his medical treatment, crawling back from the brink of death and returning completely healthy.

But now, faced with Lin Daiyu's illness, he was somewhat helpless. This was not a simple ailment, but a problem she had been born with; to be precise, it was a congenital disease caused by a deficiency in the body's fundamental nature.

"elder brother."

"how's it going?"

Little Xichun blinked her big eyes, staring intently at Jia Yan.

"Second Brother Yan."

"I understand my own body."

"You don't need to feel awkward."

Lin Daiyu smiled sadly. Over the years, Lin Ruhai and his wife had searched for famous doctors for her and tried all sorts of folk remedies. Apart from taking ginseng nourishing pills to barely maintain her health, there was no other way.

"Not urgent."

Jia Yan withdrew his hand, focused his mind, and silently said, "System, upgrade the purple attribute [Miraculous Healing]."

[Ding dong, the entry upgrade is complete!]

As the mechanical prompt sounded, a golden entry appeared.

【Master Physician (Gold)】: Revives the dead and heals the wounded, combining the skills of Bian Que and Hua Tuo, with a survival rate of +80%.
"hiss!!!"

The effect of this entry made Jia Yan gasp. His vast medical knowledge suddenly shone with a different kind of brilliance, and he was able to integrate modern and classical medicine.

He had a complete grasp of various medical specialties, including general medicine, gynecology, sores and ulcers, acupuncture, ophthalmology, dentistry, laryngology, bone setting, typhoid fever, metal arrowhead surgery, massage, and incantation therapy.

Most importantly, it enables treatment to be tailored to local conditions and individual patients.

'I see! ’

Lin Daiyu's illness was constantly being analyzed in Jia Yan's mind, and he now knew it all.

The difficulty in treating this condition is not solely due to the congenital disease; it stems from a chronic illness brought on by the mother during pregnancy. To be precise, Jia Min was poisoned during her pregnancy, which led to deformities in the fetus.

"elder brother."

Little Xichun stretched out her chubby little hand and waved it in front of Jia Yan.

"Lin Daiyu's illness is indeed troublesome."

Jia Yan snapped out of his daze and said in a serious tone, "However, it's not entirely hopeless."

what?
Upon hearing this, Lin Daiyu stood up abruptly, her face, which vaguely revealed her stunning beauty, filled with disbelief.

"Second Master Yan".

"Are you telling the truth?"

Xueyan, who had grown up by Lin Daiyu's side since childhood, covered her mouth and asked cautiously.

"That's certainly true."

Meeting Lin Daiyu's gaze, Jia Yan said solemnly, "It's just that the treatment is a bit complicated."

"We need to send someone to purchase all the necessary medicinal materials, and that will take some time."

He already has a detailed treatment plan, which mainly involves strengthening the body's foundation, removing toxins, and then conditioning the body and mind.

This process may seem simple, but the treatment is actually very complex, involving precious medicinal materials such as Tian Shan snow lotus, rhinoceros horn, bezoar, and tiger bone. In particular, there is a medicinal guide, a unique herb that grows in the Qinling Mountains and is known as the "Emperor of Ginseng," the Luo ginseng.

Qinling ginseng has been regarded as a divine medicine since the pre-Qin period. It flowers once every three years and bears fruit once every five years. It prefers shade and can only grow in the Qinling Mountains. It has long been extinct in later generations, and there is no artificially cultivated ginseng.

Moreover, what he needs is not just any ginseng, but ginseng that is at least a hundred years old.

"Woo!"

Lin Daiyu wept with joy, for she had finally seen hope, and Xueyan was even happier for her.
