Bai Xue, as if having obtained a treasure, snatched the prescription into her own hands.

"I just need to grab the medicine according to this prescription and take it, right?" Bai Xue confirmed with Feng Qingxue repeatedly.

Feng Qingxue set down her pen, pushed the kang table to the end of the kang, and smiled, "Take this prescription to the traditional Chinese medicine shop to grab the medicine, first take ten doses. After ten doses, come back to me for a follow-up consultation. At that time, depending on your physical condition, we’ll adjust the dosages of the sovereign, minister, assistant, and courier herbs. Bai Xue, conditioning won’t happen overnight, you’ll need to be patient. It might take around three to five months before you see some effects."

Bai Xue carefully folded the prescription and put it into her pocket, "I’ve got it memorized, and I’ll grab the medicine in a bit. Also, Old Su’s joints hurt, and medicines don’t work, right? Is there anything that can alleviate it? I remember you have a kind of medicinal oil."

"Oh, the medicinal oil you mentioned, I’ll get you a bottle of that." Feng Qingxue asked Lu Jiang to open the cabinet and took out a canned bottle of medicinal oil for Su Junlin, "The old medicinal oil has long been gone. This is the new batch our nephew made according to the prescription this year when I went home. I only brought a few bottles with me. Apply three to four times a day, just a few drops each time on the affected joints, and rub it in."

Su Junlin thanked her profusely, while Bai Xue left the Lu Family’s house and headed straight to grab the medicine without any delay.

Seeing this, Su Junlin was especially moved.

Today was Wang Sanbao’s shift at the pharmacy. Before the staff began to prepare the medicine, she glanced at the prescription and immediately recognized that it was filled with herbs for strengthening the kidney, benefiting essence, and bolstering yang, and she knew instantly which ailment it was meant to treat. She couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xue.

"I’ll grab the medicine for you!" Wang Sanbao pinched the prescription and smiled with pursed lips, afraid the young girls in the pharmacy might gossip outside.

Girls working in the pharmacy naturally knew how to recognize herbs and were aware of some of their characteristics. If one of them mentioned during a casual conversation with colleagues that Bai Xue had grabbed such-and-such herbs for Su Junlin, it would immediately become public knowledge.

Bai Xue said with embarrassment, "Thank you, Sister Sanbao."

Wang Sanbao took out the scales and according to the prescription, prepared ten doses of medicine. Wrapping each dose in oil paper, she finally tied them all into a long string with hemp rope and handed them to Bai Xue, "Compared to Western medicine, Chinese medicine works slowly; it’s about conditioning. But it leaves no side effects. Your Old Su needs to keep taking this medicine consistently, without missing a day. In three or four months, you’ll see the effects."

Bai Xue smiled, "Qingxue said the same, I remember it all."

"How is Qingxue doing?" Wang Sanbao asked, "She’s been on leave for quite a few days now. I’ve been so busy treating and healing soldiers coming back that I haven’t had time to visit her."

"It’s really tough. She looks so shaky walking around with such a big belly, it frightens me just looking at her. Are bellies always this big with twins?" Bai Xue earnestly said, having seen Feng Qingxue’s clumsy and slow movements and her swollen body that changed her appearance entirely. The dark spots under her eyes made Bai Xue unsure whether wanting children was good or bad for herself.

Regarding the melasma on her face, although not too extensive, only appearing under her eyes, it had been bothering Feng Qingxue for quite some time.

"After finding out I was pregnant, I immediately started eating bird’s nest, for the development of the fetus and for my own skin. But why did I still get spots? Could it be because I didn’t eat it before pregnancy? But I didn’t eat it before getting pregnant with Xibao and Fubao either." Feng Qingxue looked at herself in the mirror over and over, as the bird’s nest in the room was almost finished. "This kind of melasma is hard to fade, what am I to do in the future?"

Lu Jiang consoled her, "Don’t be sad, even with slight flaws, you are still more beautiful than anyone else."
