Upon hearing this, Yun Jin's heart stirred slightly, and she quickly nodded in response, "Thank you, Madam."

"No need for thanks, it's all what I should do." Old Mrs. Zheng looked at her gently. "Just stay here for the next few days. If you need anything, just tell Yao'er or your aunt. Jingxin Nunnery is quiet and peaceful, perfect for talking."

Wang chimed in, "Yes, the vegetarian food at Jingxin Nunnery is excellent. Let's go early so we can have a vegetarian meal there."

Chen Mengyao joined in, her eyes sparkling: "Grandma, I want to go too!"

Grandma Zheng gave her a reproachful look: "How could I leave you out?"

Chen Mengyao excitedly leaned over and hugged Grandma Zheng: "Grandma, I knew you loved me the most."

Grandma Zheng, unable to resist Chen Mengyao's persistence, laughed and pushed her away, saying, "Alright, alright, you're such a big girl, why are you still acting like a spoiled child? It's alright, you two go and rest first, let me have some peace and quiet."

Chen Mengyao then stood up with a smile, and was about to pull Yun Jin away when she saw Madam Wang frowning as she looked at the old lady: "Mother, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"

Grandma Zheng rubbed her temples and sighed, "It's nothing, just a bit of a headache. Maybe it's because of the hot and stuffy weather, or maybe I didn't sleep well last night."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Jin stepped forward and said softly, "If the old lady trusts me, I would like to take your pulse."

Grandma Zheng was taken aback, and looked up at her: "You can also take a pulse?"

"I've learned a little bit from my master, but I wouldn't dare say I'm an expert," Yun Jin said modestly.

Grandma Zheng didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was just the child trying to express their feelings, and she didn't want to refuse, so she smiled and stretched out her wrist: "Then let me show you."

Wang was watching from the side, and assumed that the woman was trying to thank the old lady for her help, so she didn't take it to heart.

Yun Jin sat down by the couch, her fingertips gently touching Old Madam Zheng's wrist pulse, her expression instantly becoming focused.

She had learned some medical skills from her master in modern times, but at that time her ambitions lay elsewhere, so her skills were not very proficient. However, with the addition of the medical and poison expertise she had tricked from the King of Hell, her level of skill was naturally different.

With her eyes closed, she carefully felt the pulse, searching her mind for related symptoms. After a moment, she slowly asked, "When you gave birth to your first child, did you catch a cold? This headache is probably a lingering problem from your postpartum period, isn't it?"

"How did you know?!" Old Mrs. Zheng looked at her in shock. "Did Yao'er tell you about this?"

Chen Mengyao shook her head repeatedly, "I didn't say that! Grandmother, I didn't even know you caught a cold when you gave birth to my eldest uncle!"

Madam Wang was also taken aback. She had only heard the old lady mention this matter once when she married into the family, and had never gone into details. How could Yun Jin, a girl who had just arrived in the capital, know so much about it?

Suppressing her surprise, Grandma Zheng pressed, "You... what else can you see?"

Yun Jin didn't answer immediately, her fingertips still resting on her pulse. After a moment, she said, "When the old lady was young, she must have taken a strong medicine to suppress this illness, but it has relapsed in the last two years. She has probably tried acupuncture and medicine, but it hasn't helped. Her headaches worsen on rainy days or after exertion, and she also has trouble sleeping at night?"

These words were spoken with absolutely perfect accuracy!

Grandma Zheng sat up straight, her eyes filled with disbelief: "You...you child, your medical skills are so amazing?"

Her headaches had recurred in the past two years. She had seen many famous doctors, but they all said it was an old ailment that was difficult to cure. No one had ever explained it as clearly as Yun Jin.

"Can it be cured?" Old Mrs. Zheng grasped Yun Jin's hand anxiously, her eyes gleaming with hope. "This ailment is keeping me up at night. If you can cure it, it would be a huge help!"

Yun Jin nodded: "We can give it a try. It will require acupuncture and herbal medicine. It will take at least half a month, and at most a month."

Others might not be able to do it, but with the help of the spiritual spring water, she will definitely be able to cure the disease.

She wanted to use the Grand Tutor's mansion to help her in the future, so she accepted this favor.

The worry on Old Mrs. Zheng's face vanished: "This is wonderful! There's hope for my headaches."

Madam Wang was both surprised and delighted, and quickly said, "Jin'er, just tell me what medicinal herbs or needles you need, and the manor will definitely be able to find them!"

Chen Mengyao grabbed Yun Jin, her eyes wide with surprise: "Jin-meimei, you're amazing! Not only do you know kung fu, but you also know medicine? What's your master's name? Is he that good?"

Old Mrs. Zheng and Madam Wang also looked at Yun Jin with curiosity in their eyes.

Yun Jin smiled and said, "I can't reveal my master's name. I learned these things from him just to protect myself. I don't know if I'm that good. I'm just trying out the methods he taught me."

She spoke modestly, but both Old Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Wang understood that it was definitely not just a "trial."

This child must have received the true teachings of a master, but he is low-key and unwilling to show off.

"Good child, we've really struck gold!" Grandma Zheng held Yun Jin's hand tightly, beaming from ear to ear. "Quickly, write me the prescription! And tell your aunt to prepare any necessary needles immediately!"

"Don't worry, Madam," Yun Jin said gently. "Acupuncture needs to be performed at a quiet time. It's getting late today, so how about I perform the acupuncture for you tomorrow? I'll write a prescription first and have the kitchen prepare some calming herbal soup so you can get a good night's sleep tonight."

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you!" Old Mrs. Zheng was now completely convinced by Yun Jin and quickly asked Wang to bring her paper and pen.

Yun Jin picked up her brush, dipped it in ink, and after a moment's thought, wrote down the prescription. Wang Shi took it and saw that the handwriting was neat and elegant, pleasing to the eye. She couldn't help but feel even more favorably disposed towards Yun Jin.

"I'll have someone fetch the medicine right away," Wang said, quickly heading out with the prescription.

Chen Mengyao leaned closer to Yun Jin and whispered, "Jin-meimei, you're amazing! When Grandma gets better, could you teach me how to take a pulse too?"

Grandma Zheng chuckled and patted her on the shoulder: "You silly girl, don't cause trouble for Jin'er."

Then he said to Yun Jin, "I'm sorry to trouble you. I've only just arrived at the manor and I already have to trouble you."

"You flatter me, Madam." Yun Jin put down her pen. "It is my honor to be able to share your burdens."
