Chapter 36 A word worth a thousand dollars
  The Queen Mother's headache was caused by a heavy rain when she was young, and it hasn't healed yet. People from the Queen Mother's Hospital have visited her countless times.
  The diagnostic results are similar, all of which mean that cold and dampness have entered the brain and cannot be cured.
  The weather has been too hot in the past few days, and the Queen Mother is greedy for cold. Not to mention there are many ice basins in the house, and the food is also cold. She keeps drinking iced melons and fruits, and she suffers from headaches unknowingly.
  When Shen Zhuoxi asked, the Queen Mother smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, it will be fine after a while."
  "The Queen Mother's head problem seems to be harmless, but it will become more and more serious as time goes by." Shen Zhuoxi walked up to the Queen Mother and said, "I will help you press it."
  The Queen Mother remembered that Shen Zhuoxi had casually pressed her head that day, and she felt much more at ease when sleeping at night. She nodded and said, "You can do it."
  Shen Zhuoxi took the opportunity to sit next to Ruantan. Her fingers were cold, and her fingertips landed on her temples neither lightly nor heavily.
  The Queen Mother closed her eyes, and fell asleep again in comfort after a while. When she opened her eyes again, the fatigue of waking up was gone, the pain disappeared, and she felt refreshed.
  "It's really effective." The Queen Mother was quite surprised and said, "Your method is better than Guirong's."
  "Aunt Guirong massages you every day. Her technique is skillful and unmatched by my daughter." Shen Zhuoxi glanced at Aunt Guirong, stood up and said, "My daughter only pressed the right acupuncture points to relieve your symptoms. "
  "If you believe me, I have a prescription in my hand. If you follow the prescription for half a month, your headache will be cured."
  The Queen Mother looked at him suspiciously: "So many doctors from the Imperial Hospital have seen it, and they said it cannot be cured. Can it be cured in half a month, or is it still cured?"
  "Yes." Shen Zhuoxi was very confident about his medical skills: "During this period, you must coordinate your diet. All the food you eat and drink on weekdays must be replaced with lukewarm temperatures. If not, keep it at room temperature."
  "You can't touch those iced things and herbal tea now."
  Grandma Guirong heard this strangely and couldn't help but interject: "How does the second young lady know the Queen Mother's daily diet?"
  "Although I haven't checked, I can glean something from the Queen Mother's condition. She is extremely fond of cold and likes cold." Shen Zhuoxi looked at the tea bowl on the table and said.
  "At the beginning of summer, I'm afraid the tea in the bowl will be replaced by herbal tea."
  Grandma Guirong marveled: "It's true that the Queen Mother is troubled by heat. When I asked the imperial doctor, they all said it was external heat and internal cold. I prescribed the prescription one dose after another, but there was no improvement."
  "The medicine tastes very bitter, so the Queen Mother simply stopped the medicine. At least I feel better."
  "The imperial doctor is right." Shen Zhuoxi agreed, saying: "This situation cannot be improved in a day or two. You need to take medicine for a long time and your living habits need to be corrected."
  The Queen Mother couldn't help but frown and said, "Why do you talk about your medical skills so well? The Ai family remembers that you haven't seen any outsiders since you fell ill."
  "Has the Queen Mother forgotten my daughter's mother?" Shen Zhuoxi still used the same rhetoric, and finally added: "There was no one else in the place where I lived before, and a wandering doctor who was running for his life accidentally broke in."
  "My daughter and Aunt Ju saved his life. In order to repay her kindness, he also taught me a lot. However, my daughter was stupid and couldn't understand it at that time. After she recovered, she immediately understood the key."
  "He should be your creation and destiny." The Queen Mother thought of Princess Xiaoqing and sighed: "When your mother was alive, she loved to read medical books in her spare time, and she also thought about becoming a military doctor."
  "If the Ai family hadn't stopped her, she would have secretly gone to find your grandfather. I didn't expect that she didn't learn medical skills and died young. She still has this fate to be here with you."
  Seeing the Queen Mother's eyes turning red, Aunt Guirong quickly advised her, "Don't be sad. Princess Xiaoqing's spirit in heaven will definitely be gratifying."
  "Oh, it would be great if she were still here." The Queen Mother wiped her tears and said, "Among the children raised by the Ai family, she is the most filial and considerate. Although those others are also filial, they are men after all, and they are careless."
  "Isn't there still a second young lady?" Sister Guirong consoled her, "After the second young lady recovers, she will serve you as Princess Xiaoqing's filial piety from now on."
  Shen Zhuoxi took the words and said: "If the Queen Mother does not dislike you, I will come to the palace to accompany you more often and fulfill your filial piety for your mother."
  "Good boy." The Queen Mother took Shen Zhuoxi's hand, looked down and said, "Your hands are rougher than those of the maids in the Ai Family Palace. You can imagine how much you have suffered over the years."
  "If Si Tianjian hadn't deceived everyone, you would be the Jiaojiao in the palm of his hand."
  Speaking of this matter, Sister Guirong suggested: "How about asking the second lady to stay with you in the palace?"
  The Queen Mother looked at Shen Zhuoxi, neither saying yes nor saying no, with hesitation in her expression.
  "The Queen Mother is already very old. How can I disturb my daughter when she is noisy." Seeing this, Shen Zhuoxi said in a satisfactory manner: "Besides, my daughter has been in the backyard for many years and her etiquette is not perfect. She is worried about offending the Queen Mother."
  "It is better to wait for my daughter to go back and learn the rules before coming to serve the Queen Mother."
  These two points were exactly what the Queen Mother was worried about.
  She is sympathetic and fond of Shen Zhuoxi now, but there is no guarantee that Shen Zhuoxi will be bored after a long time without knowing etiquette and being reckless.
  The Queen Mother took advantage of the situation and said: "The Ai family is indeed old and has nothing to worry about. It is restricted by the palace, and you are just right. You can adapt to it outside first."
  "Yes." Shen Zhuoxi stood up and said, "Can I ask Sister Guirong to lead the way? I will write the prescription first."
  "You can also write?" The Queen Mother was a little surprised.
  "Yes." Shen Zhuo Xiyi used Aunt Ju as a shield: "Aunt Ju has served my mother, knows how to read, and has taught my daughter."
  Grandma Ju had been standing nearby. When she heard this, she secretly sighed in her heart.
  She did teach Shen Zhuoxi how to practice calligraphy. Shen Zhuoxi had a bad brain and couldn't remember it at all, and he didn't want to learn it. It just took time. Unexpectedly, Shen Zhuoxi still remembered it after he recovered.
  The Queen Mother no longer had any doubts and asked Aunt Guirong to take her down. She also asked Aunt Ju many things.
  Aunt Ju is an upright person, and she told everything about Shen Zhuoxi's experience in the Grand Master's Mansion.
  The more the Queen Mother listened, the worse her expression became - despite Si Tianjian's calculation, Shen Zhuoxi was the one she had protected.
  If the Grand Master's Mansion treats Shen Zhuoxi badly, wouldn't he slap her in the face openly?
  When Shen Zhuoxi came back after writing the prescription, the Queen Mother was already angry: "I didn't expect that the Taishi Mansion would abuse you so much. With this tone, the Ai family will definitely get it back for you."
  When Shen Zhuoxi saw Aunt Ju kneeling beside her, she also had an idea. She stepped forward and comforted her: "The Queen Mother, please calm down. To use an inappropriate metaphor, it is said that there is no filial son before a long-term illness."
  "What's more, I am a person like my daughter who was said by Si Tianjian to be the reincarnation of a demon star that brought disaster to the country and the people. The Grand Master's Palace didn't throw me out because of your sake."
  "It's only because of your kindness that you still explain it to them." The Queen Mother hated the fact that iron cannot be made into steel, and said: "Master Shen is the master of the prince, and his character must be noble, otherwise he will ruin the pillar of the country."
  "The Grand Master doesn't care about the affairs in the backyard." Shen Zhuoxi pretended to be embarrassed and whispered: "Many things have passed and there is no evidence. Now that you stand up for me, my daughter will not be able to live well in the Grand Master's Mansion in the future. .”
  "That's what the second lady said." Sister Guirong took over the words and said: "If she doesn't come to the palace, she has to live in the house before getting married. The eldest lady of the Taishi Mansion is famous for her virtuousness, so she won't be embarrassed by it. .”
  "It's up to you." The Queen Mother relented and said, "Who dares to treat you badly in the future? Remember, you have the Ai family to support you."
  During this trip, Shen Zhuoxi not only told the Queen Mother that she had recovered, but also received a promise from the Queen Mother, a promise worth a thousand dollars.
