Section 165 Cold and Heat Confusion

  When I married into the Yuan family, I heard they were wealthy.

  It can be seen that the Yuan family is not a light and frivolous door.

  Their home's courtyard isn't particularly large, but it was built with great care and attention to detail. Unlike the heavily ornate courtyards found in Beijing, this one has a subtle charm reminiscent of Suzhou gardens, with black tiles and pale-colored walls.

  As soon as you come out of Gu Xuan's courtyard, there is a patch of Xiang Fei bamboo, neatly trimmed and arranged in an orderly manner, with a deep green color like ink, resembling a screen.

  There are plum trees everywhere.

  There are red big Hongmei, light green Luomei, also brocade red Chui Zhimei, snow-white Longyoumei, purple-red Yingli Mei, and some are called by Gu Jin but can't be named...

  Everywhere I go, there are plum blossoms decorating the place. Some are directly planted, while others are potted landscapes that have been moved here. The fragrance is subtle and elegant, with a refreshing scent wafting through the air. As the gentle breeze passes by, the petals fall, adding a touch of color to the monotonous snowy ground.

  Mrs. Yuan's main courtyard is in the west.

  Gu Xuan led the way, Peony supported Song Wan'er, and Zhilai supported Gu Jinzhi. The maids of the Yuan family held umbrellas for them on both sides.

  The maid supporting Gu Xiang was one of the maids she had brought with her, named Ting Feng, who was the same maid that Gu Xiang's father-in-law had taken a liking to last year.

  Ting Feng's five senses didn't look particularly outstanding, and she was even a bit slightly chubby. However, with her prominent front and rear curves, even wearing thick cotton clothes, it could still be seen that her chest was bulging out, very enticing.

  Song Pan'er cursed in her heart: "That old man of Gu Shan's is a dirty old man!"

  The group of people soon arrived at Mrs. Yuan's courtyard.

  The lintel of Hanbaiyu is carved with three characters "Yu Qing Ge".

  Gu Jin couldn't help but smile: "Yu Qing Ge" is a Buddhist term, referring to the dwelling place of immortals. It's often used in temples and monasteries.

  Yuan's family was carved on the main house.

  Yuan's first and second wives are currently attending to their illness in the Jade Clear Pavilion.

  Xiaoyao ran in and said that San Nainai Gu Xuanzhi had arrived with Song Dang'er and Gu Jinzhi, and the first and second madams hurried out to greet them.

  Gu Jin followed her mother into the eastern wing of Madame Yuan's living quarters.

  The room is warm and cozy, even a bit hot.

  The air is somewhat stifling.

  Song Pan'er wrinkled her nose.

  Madam Yuan was the most alert, she saw the expressions of Song Dang'er and Gu Jingzhi, and quickly explained: "My mother-in-law has been afraid of the cold due to wind chill these past two days. So we lit the kang, the whole house needs to be warm and cozy. If Madam Qin is uncomfortable, shall we move to the main hall outside?"

  Song Paner came in for just a moment, and felt the heat wave after wave rushing to her face.

  She is also not good at wearing other people's clothes.

  It's snowing again outside. It's very cold; if she starts sweating and then goes out into the cold wind, her body temperature will be uneven and she'll probably get sick.

  Seeing Yuan Erniang say so, Song Pan'er smiled and said: "...... I'll go see my aunt first. I'll go out and sit later."

  Yuan Dainai hastily invited Song Panger and Gu Jingzi to go into the inner chamber.

  Song Pan'er and Gu Jinzhi both jumped in fright as the curtain of the inner chamber was lifted.

  That hot air rushed towards me like it was early summer.

  In front of Mrs. Yuan's bed, seven or eight stoves were placed, each burning fiercely; the floor was also covered with a heated kang, and on Mrs. Yuan's bed, there were actually four or five layers of brocade curtains.

  It's not just Song Pan'er and Gu Jinzhi. The three madams of the Yuan family are getting hot again.

  "Mother, Third Madame and Seventh Miss have come to see you!" said Old Lady Yuan.

  "Hurry, hurry and roll it up..." The voice inside was a bit urgent. A hand pushed the brocade curtain. Mrs. Yuan had someone roll up the bed curtains.

  Yuan Dainai and Ernai, as well as Gu Shan, all came forward to help.

  As the embroidered curtain was lifted, they saw Madame Yuan's appearance. Song Pan'er was even more shocked.

  She was wrapped in a thick quilt, and there were three or four thick blankets piled up on the bed. She sat up, still shivering with cold.

  "Mother-in-law." Mrs. Yuan struggled to get out of bed.

  Song Pan'er took a quick step forward and supported her: "Don't move, don't move. We're not outsiders, so let's not pretend to be polite. I came to take a look at you, if I let you exert yourself, how can I rest assured?"

  Mrs. Yuan's hand was icy cold.

  Song Pan'er had just come in for a short while, and her palms were already sweating. She was greatly shocked in her heart.

  Gu Jin was also slightly startled.

  She stepped forward and paid her respects to Mrs. Yuan.

  Mrs. Yuan stammered and barely managed to say: "Seventh Miss..."

  Gu Jinzhi then said to Song Pan'er sitting on the edge of the bed: "Mother, you should cover your mother-in-law with a quilt again, don't let her get cold..."

  Song Pan'er hurriedly wanted to pull the quilt.

  The people of the Yuan family would never let Song Pan'er work hard.

  Yuan's grandmother hurried forward and covered her mother-in-law with a thin quilt from outside the bed.

  Song Pan'er said to Mrs. Yuan: "Your illness is quite serious. Have you seen a doctor? What did the doctor say?"

  Madam Yuan was stuttering nonstop, how could she get a word in edgewise?

  "Please call the doctor. My mother originally suffered from wind and cold, fearing the chill. The doctor prescribed warming medicine to dispel the cold and open up the channels. After taking it two days ago, there was no improvement; yesterday, the dosage was increased, but unexpectedly, her condition worsened! She's even more afraid of the cold now. Today, I went to call the doctor again, but the road is impassable due to snow, and the doctor hasn't arrived yet... probably won't arrive until this afternoon..."

  Gu Jin had an idea in his heart.

  Mrs. Yuan was a plump woman with a pale complexion. After falling ill, her face became even paler.

  "Why don't I get my sister Jin to take a look?" Song Pan'er said, "Don't underestimate her just because she's young, she's learned some of our family's old master's skills..."

  Mrs. Yuan couldn't find it no matter what.

  Song Pan'er is being so modest again.

  Mrs. Yuan was so cold that her teeth were chattering and she couldn't get a word out, all she could do was nod vigorously.

  Gu Jin stepped forward and took Madame Yuan's pulse.

  She started pressing lightly at first; after a moment, she suddenly increased the force in her hands and pressed down.

  Mrs. Yuan's hand hurts a bit.

  Mrs. Yuan didn't know the reason, but she thought to herself: Miss Gu's medical skills are indeed different from others.

  After feeling the pulse, Gu Jing turned his face and asked Mrs. Yuan's second wife: "Didn't the doctor who came last time say that your husband's mother was suffering from yang deficiency?"

  Mrs. Yuan's symptoms are those of yang deficiency: her limbs are icy cold, her complexion is pale, and she has an extreme aversion to cool breezes.

  "Exactly, exactly," said Granny Yuan hurriedly.

  "Is there also deer antler, astragalus and cordyceps in the prescription?" Gu Jin asked. "Has the mutton been cooked?"

  Madam Yuan and Second Madam Yuan were convinced in their hearts.

  The prescription written by the doctor who came yesterday was indeed hit by Gu Jinzhi.

  The doctor prescribed Astragalus and deer antler, and also told me to make some mutton soup.

  These are all warm and dry things. Can return yang and drive out cold, supplement yang deficiency.

  "We have," said the second wife of the Yuan family. "Miss, you are indeed prescient. Are these medicines suitable?"

  Gu Jinzhi felt very helpless.

  "It's more than just improper! It's utterly improper!" she said.

  Madam Yuan and all the Yuans, including Song Dang'er, changed their faces.

  "Mrs. Qin, this is not a case of yang deficiency at all, you are suffering from latent heat evil." Gu Jin said, "Your body originally had hot toxin, and the doctor gave you strong warming tonics, how could nothing go wrong? Fortunately, you only took the medicine for two days. If you continue to take it, you will probably..."

  Mrs. Yuan was greatly frightened and breathed a little quickly.

  "What's wrong with my mother?" Gu Xuanzhi didn't understand what Gu Jinzhi was saying, but he also knew that Mrs. Yuan was in a critical condition.

  Gu Jin turned his face to explain to her: "Mrs. Yuan has heat in her body. The doctor prescribed warming and tonifying medicine. Heat on top of heat..."

  "But my mother is cold like this, where does the heat come from?" Gu Xuanzhi blurted out.

  She didn't care whether Gu Jing was happy or not.

  "I just took the pulse, and Madame Yuan's pulse is sinking and slippery, which is a sign of having heat evil in the body. It's just that it's hidden very deeply. The doctor may have overlooked it...". Gu Jin continued to explain patiently, "We should use cooling medicine to clear away the heat. If we don't, it will be like adding fuel to the fire, and Madame Yuan's life will be in danger!"

  Yuan's grandmother and several others changed their faces.

  Madam Yuan hastily said: "Thank you, Seventh Miss. Please give me a prescription. I'll entrust my life to you!"

  She knew Gu Jin's treatment had cured the Empress Dowager and also cured Prince Yi Yan.

  This was the beginning of her fame in Beijing.

  The old lady spoke up, and Yuan Dainai hurriedly went to fetch a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

  Gu Jin sat down and started writing a prescription.

  Gu Shan whispered on the side: "It's so cold, how can there be heat?"

  There's fever, it should be high fever.

  Whose home is warm but feels so cold?

  Mrs. Yuan was busy giving her a signal with her eyes, shaking her head at her, telling her not to say any more.

  Gu Jin didn't think much of it, and while writing the prescription, he answered Gu Xiang's question: "When heat evil is inside, it will hinder the circulation of qi and blood. The heat evil of your aunt has gathered in the middle burner, which makes all the qi and blood reverse in the middle burner. If the qi and blood cannot reach the four limbs and body surface, how can people not feel cold?"

  Everyone finally understood.

  Even Lian Gu Shan understood it all.

  I didn't know there was another layer to this.

  Mrs. Yuan was shocked. She believed Gu Jin's words.

  If it's not a hot evil, how would the warm and nourishing medicine make her cold worse? If it's really wind-cold or cold evil, the warm and nourishing medicine should have made her better!

  In a moment, Gu Jinzhi's prescription was written.

  She handed it to the eldest grandmother of the Yuan family: "Quickly call someone to fetch medicine, and have the auntie take it immediately. Not a moment can be delayed. All these stoves must be removed, and the room must be thoroughly ventilated..."

  Madam Yuan accepted the prescription and thanked him. She immediately called a young maid to take it to the outer courtyard, telling the person in charge to fetch the medicine.

  Waiting for her to come back, the second lady of the Yuan family had already ordered the maidservants to remove the stove and canopy, and even took away two quilts from Madame Yuan's bed, leaving only one.

  The kang has also gone out.

  The cold wind blew in, and Mrs. Yuan shivered uncontrollably.

  "It doesn't matter, it's just a manifestation. It's okay to be a bit cold, as long as the hot evil can be dispersed."

  Mrs. Yuan gritted her teeth and thanked him.

  Song Pan'er hated that she couldn't rush out immediately.

  She was already drenched in sweat.

  The three grandmothers of the Yuan family also had beads of sweat on their foreheads.

  "Please...please go and sit outside, mother-in-law," said Mrs. Yuan to her daughter-in-law.

  Yuan Dainai invited Gu Jinzhi and Song Pantou out.

  After a moment, there were footsteps outside.

  A young man wearing a bright blue silk cloak strode in quickly, asking loudly as soon as he entered the door: "Whose prescription is this?"

  Then he saw Song Pan'er and Gu Jinzhi, unfamiliar faces, and he hastily stopped making a sound.

  Gu Xuanzhi stepped forward and called out "Third Uncle", then introduced Gu Jingzhi and Song Tian'er to him: "This is my mother's third aunt and seventh younger sister."

  The young man hastily bowed and greeted, calling out "Third Aunt" and "Seventh Sister".

  He is Gu Xuan Zhi's husband Yuan Yu Ye.

  “……just then suddenly understood.” He thanked Song Wanting, “The little boy outside handed me a prescription and said it was opened for the lady inside. My mother has wind-cold and chills, but this prescription uses raw gypsum as the main medicine. Raw gypsum is a great cooling thing! I'm worried in my heart, that's why I rushed to Third Aunt.”

  Then he asked Gu Shan again, "Who took a look at Fang's son, was it Li Daifu from yesterday?"

  Gu Shan was extremely embarrassed and said: "It's my seventh sister who opened it!"
