Thrown out of the house, the wet nurse enters the noble household and becomes a person of high statu

Inside Mingxi Hall, the lingering aroma of medicine permeated the air.

Liu Wenying was kneeling on the brocade cushion, massaging the old lady's legs and feet.

The old lady closed her eyes to rest, her brows relaxed, clearly enjoying herself.

The curtain to the outer room was gently lifted, and the tea on the small table had gone cold. A maid brought in freshly brewed tea.

Liu Wenying caught a glimpse of her and recognized her as one of the people who had moved the vases with Ling'er yesterday.

He was not very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

The maid walked to the bedside, holding a teacup in both hands, and was about to place it on the small table.

Suddenly she lost her grip, the teacup slipped from her hand, and the hot tea spilled out, landing straight on the old lady's legs!

"Ah..." the maids exclaimed.

Liu Wenying reacted quickly, grabbing the thin blanket next to her and pulling it over to cover the old lady's legs and feet.

Large amounts of tea spilled onto the folded blanket, soaking it and leaving dark watermarks.

However, some water still splashed onto the old lady's bare ankles.

The old lady frowned slightly.

Upon seeing this, Granny Wu angrily rebuked her.

"You clumsy girl! How dare you act so disrespectfully in front of the old lady? Are you tired of living?"

The maid was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she knelt down with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly.

"Please spare me, Madam! Please spare me, Granny! I didn't mean to!"

Liu Wenying hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up to plead for her.

"Granny Wu, please calm down. She moved the vase yesterday, and her arms must have been sore and weak today, which is why she lost her balance. It was not intentional."

"Whether it was intentional or not, we cannot let it go! The old lady is so precious; how can we allow her to be so negligent?"

Liu Wenying could only shut up and say no more.

There are strict rules in a secluded mansion, and mistakes must be punished; this is an ironclad rule.

As a fellow servant, she was already overstepping her bounds by saying even a single word.

Liu Wenying turned her face away, unable to bear it.

The little maid was crying with tears streaming down her face. She was being held up by two old women, one on each side, and was about to be dragged out the door.

Just then, the old lady struggled to sit up, pressed her hand against the spot that had just been scalded by the tea, and pinched it.

"Madam?" Liu Wenying asked. She had just wiped it clean, and there were no water stains.

Could it be...?

The old lady did not answer, but continued to press on that patch of skin, her expression gradually changing.

In the end, she actually pinched him hard.

"I can feel it! My legs... I can feel them again!"

The short sentence caused an uproar in Mingxi Hall.

Granny Wu prostrated herself before the bed, her voice trembling.

"Madam! Are you telling the truth? You really feel it?"

The old lady nodded, her hand still pressing on her leg, confirming that the sensation was not an illusion.

Liu Wenying calmed down and asked softly, "How does the old lady feel? Is it numbness? Or something else?"

After thinking it over carefully, the old lady said, "The place that was scalded by the tea was hot at first, and then it hurt."

"That kind of pain is real, not the numb pain you feel on a normal day."

The old lady looked at the little maid on the ground and said happily:

"Alright, since it was because of your splashing that I realized I had regained feeling in my legs, consider it a lucky accident. Let's skip the punishment."

The maid was both surprised and delighted. She broke free from her restraints and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Madam! Thank you for your kindness, Madam!"

As she stood up, she glanced at Liu Wenying, her eyes filled with gratitude.

If it weren't for Liu Wenying speaking up for her, she would have been dragged away and punished long ago. How could she have waited for the old lady to show mercy?

The room suddenly became lively.

Granny Wu and Liu Wenying personally helped the old lady lie down, cleaned up the mess of tea, and sent someone to fetch Doctor Ye.

Soon, Dr. Ye arrived.

He carefully examined the old lady's legs and feet, and inquired about the previous situation, a smile appearing on his face.

"Congratulations, Madam! After these days of herbal medicine, acupuncture, and daily massage to unblock your meridians, the blood circulation in your legs is gradually improving, and you can now feel hot and cold – a sign of recovery!"

The old lady sat leaning back, a smile on her face, but her eyes were slightly red.

Liu Wenying stood to the side, also filled with indescribable joy.

She suddenly remembered the elderly people she had taken care of before she traveled through time.

Many elderly people with leg ailments perform standing exercises during their recovery period.

Even a short moment can be very beneficial.

But the idea was too ahead of its time.

The old lady is of noble birth, a golden branch and jade leaf, who would dare to let her risk standing?

If anything goes wrong, no one can afford the consequences.

When Liu Wenying first came to Mingxi Hall, she certainly wouldn't have brought it up so rashly, but things are different now.

The old lady has regained feeling in her legs, and there are signs of improvement. Perhaps... we can give it a try?

"Madam, Doctor Ye, I have an idea, but I don't know if I should say it."

Doctor Ye was taking the old lady's pulse when he heard this and looked up: "Please speak freely."

He had witnessed her abilities firsthand: airbag cushions, feeding spoons, wooden wheelchairs... weren't they all ingenious ideas that brought great benefits?

"When I was in my hometown, I saw some elderly people who had difficulty walking."

"In addition to acupuncture and medication, they also help people stand up and move around every day, and gradually, their legs regain strength."

"I wonder if this applies to the old lady's situation?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Wu hesitated first.

"Absolutely not. The old lady is of delicate health, and her legs have been weak for a long time. What if she injures her bones or muscles if she does this rashly?"

Just as Liu Wenying was about to explain, Doctor Ye said, "Using movement to promote stillness, using yang to assist yin, makes perfect sense!"

"The old lady has been bedridden for a long time, causing stagnation of qi and blood. Now that she has regained consciousness, it is time to gradually move her muscles and bones!"

"Your suggestion is brilliant!"

The old lady was somewhat tempted, but also had concerns.

"But I'm afraid my legs won't be able to support me standing."

Liu Wenying quickly said, "You don't need to exert yourself, Madam. You can have two strong maids support you, one on each side. You just need to try to put your feet firmly on the ground and feel the strength."

The old lady nodded in agreement.

Granny Wu immediately summoned two burly old women, who steadily supported the old lady's arms from both sides.

Liu Wenying then squatted down, supported the old lady's ankles, and placed her feet on the soft cloth-covered footstool.

First, touch the ground with your toes, then the middle of your foot, and finally your heel.

The old lady stepped onto the footstool, and the two old women supported her steadily, allowing her to lean most of her weight on them.

In just a few breaths, sweat had already seeped from his temples.

Liu Wenying supported the old lady's waist and gently encouraged her, "Madam, use your legs."

After a while, seeing that it was almost time, Liu Wenying called for a halt, and the old lady was put back on the bed.

Doctor Ye stepped forward to take her pulse and pressed several acupoints on her legs, then showed a look of relief.

"It's feasible; it's a feasible method!"

Liu Wenying smiled and nodded: "It's good that you can do it. This is just the most basic one. There are other training methods. We'll take it one step at a time. Don't try to do too much at once. In time, the old lady will definitely get better."

Upon hearing this, Dr. Ye's eyes gleamed with eagerness and curiosity. He had spent half his life practicing medicine, specializing in difficult and complicated diseases.

He had never imagined that such a unique method of recovery would lead him to become obsessed with medicine, eager to get to the bottom of it immediately.

"Your method of recovery is truly ingenious. Are there any other methods? Could you explain them in detail? Ideally... it would be best if they could be recorded in a book to benefit future generations."

Liu Wenying smiled and replied, "Doctor Ye, although I am willing, the way to recovery cannot be explained in a few words, and the occasion is not appropriate. Perhaps we should postpone it for now?"

"Alright, it's settled then. I'll be waiting for you anytime."
