C114 (1/2)
Autumn passed, and even the crabapple tree in front of the window like the moon, the flower had already fallen into the mud, the first winter's bleak already had a few inklings, in a flash, a month passed.
As usual, Lian Mu sat on a chair made of sour pear wood with her eyes closed. She held a string of buddhist beads in her hand as she recited Buddhist scriptures.
She picked up the pastries, placed them in her mouth, and chewed them twice before coughing. Lian Xi hurriedly walked forward and skillfully patted her back. ”You, slow down.”
Lian Luo's mother coughed for a while before she finally managed to catch her breath. Her cheeks flushed red, she threw the leftover pastries back into the plate and said, ”What a waste of effort. It must be hard on me.”
Senior Servant Song pulled open the curtain and brought in Riko water. ”This is a chronic illness. Old madam, don't be anxious. The more anxious you are, the more breathless you'll be.”
”Sigh …” Even her mother sighed deeply. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
At this moment, Lian Xiyue stood up and asked, ”Old Ancestor, can I see your hand?”
Under her mother's doubtful gaze, Lian Ru Yue took her hand and opened her palm. She thoughtfully rubbed her finger once with her abdomen, then picked up her other hand and rubbed it once before asking:
”Is Grandmother's palm and foot always cold?”
”That's right. Even if it's summer, it's still cold. Especially in the middle of the night. Those feet of yours are so cold that they can't fall asleep.” Senior Servant Song answered for him.
Lian Ru Yue thoughtfully pressed down on Lian Li's palm a few times, saying, ”Icy coldness in the heart and limbs is caused by the lack of channels and the cold in the liver, leading to insufficient Yang energy in the kidneys. Moreover, the colder it gets, the redder the heart in the limbs will be.
Lian's mother nodded in agreement and said, ”You're right. When winter is at its coldest, it will always hurt.”
”Grandmother, show your granddaughter the back of your hand.” Although she didn't know what Lian Ruyue was going to do, her mother still followed her instructions.
Lian Ruyue pressed down on the crease between the back of her hand and her wrist. Lian Ruyue only felt a sharp pain, and her hand couldn't help but shrink back.
”This is the Yang Chi Acupuncture Point. The Yang Chi Point is an important acupoint that governs the circulation of blood throughout the body. If you feel pain when you press it, it means that the acupuncture points are not blocked.
After a quarter of an hour of continuous pressure, his mother felt a warm current seeping into her palm and spreading throughout her body.
Then, Lian Ruyue had Huang Cen bring over a brush, ink, and paper. She wrote something on a piece of paper, wrote it down, and handed it to Senior Servant Song, saying, ”After each massage, use fresh old ginger cut silk, stir-fry ginger with a wok, and wrap it with cloth every night before you go to bed. At the same time, drink fresh ginger bubble honey water every morning, add fresh ginger and salt every night into the hot water to soak feet, hand and foot treatment, through a period of cold can be able to alleviate the effect, this is the specific usage and dosage.
At this time, even her mother felt her foot slowly warm up. Her brows relaxed as she opened her mouth, and couldn't help but say happily, ”It's really effective. I feel much warmer now. I said that only Third Young Madam knows medical skills, but I never thought that Eldest Young Madam also knows it. ”
”Granddaughter just likes to ponder, and seeing that third sister likes to study medical skills, she also secretly learned some. In the past, there was a girl in my yard who even fainted while on night duty, so I tried this method for her and it was much better after holding on for more than half a year.”
