Yun Jinnian finished speaking and glanced at Granny Jin, then thought for a moment and added, "Hemei, Henuan, you two have more strength, come hold Xinmo’s wrist tightly!"
She then turned to Granny Jin, "You are old, let these two maids do it instead!"
Granny Jin opened her mouth.
She couldn’t possibly say that the goal was for the grip to be weak, allowing Xu Xinmo to scratch Yun Jinnian and get some of Yun Jinnian’s blood!
Hemei and Henuan immediately stepped forward.
Granny Jin had no choice but to stand up and watched as Hemei and Henuan, like two strongmen, restrained Xu Xinmo so forcefully she couldn’t move.
Yun Jinnian slowly opened the medical kit and took out a damp cloth to carefully wipe her hands.
Granny Jin looked at the medical kit.
On the top layer was a jade box, inside it were stacks of snow-white cloths, and in one compartment were silver needles and a set of thin, sharp surgical knives, neatly organized.
Even though Granny Jin didn’t understand much, she could see that this set of knives was quite valuable.
And below the box, there should be various emergency medicines. Although she didn’t know what they were, they were items Yun Jinnian always brought when visiting patients, unlikely to be ordinary goods!
Yun Jinnian paid no heed to Granny Jin’s thoughts, gently raised her hand to feel Xu Xinmo’s pulse.
"Hm?" Yun Jinnian murmured softly.
"Commandery Princess, how is my young lady?" Mrs. Hu asked.
"By the pulse, my cousin is not in serious trouble, just has an excessive heart fire, making it difficult for me to prescribe medicine!" Yun Jinnian said, withdrawing her hand.
Taking the cloth to wipe her hands.
"Hemei, Henuan, you may let go now!"
As soon as Hemei and Henuan released their grip, Xu Xinmo began to struggle again, but her wrist was bruised.
Granny Jin and Mrs. Hu felt a pang of heartache.
"You two have too much strength, see you’ve bruised Xinmo’s wrist!"
Taking out a porcelain bottle from the medical kit, she handed it to Mrs. Hu, "Apply this to Xinmo’s wrist, it will treat the bruises!" Then she added, "It would be better to have Aunt bring a note to invite an Imperial Physician for a check-up!"
"Thank you, Commandery Princess!" Mrs. Hu took the porcelain bottle.
"Since there’s nothing else, I will take my leave now!" Yun Jinnian said, then exited the bedroom.
Hemei followed Yun Jinnian, Henuan carrying the medical kit behind.
Once the master and maids walked away, Granny Jin angrily shouted, "Damn it!"
She turned towards the bed where Xu Xinmo lay, muttering a few words, then pointed a finger at her forehead. Xu Xinmo stopped struggling, slowly opened her eyes and asked, "Granny, did it work?"
Granny Jin shook her head.
Xu Xinmo was deeply disappointed, then felt intense pain in her wrist. She lifted it to see, "Why is it so bruised?"
"I was supposed to restrain you, but your good cousin said my grip wasn’t strong enough and asked her two maids to do it!" Granny Jin said, filled with fury.
Xu Xinmo was also overwhelmed with anger, "I knew she was up to no good, today she deliberately had her maids bully me!"
All that friendliness was just an act for others.
Yun Jinnian is about to come of age, and once she does, marriage talks will begin. No wonder she takes the second house’s concubine-born children out, she’s trying to use her half-siblings to build a good reputation.
"Such clever scheming!" Xu Xinmo said angrily.
Granny Jin also felt that Yun Jinnian must be planning something, "Don’t worry, if it doesn’t work this time, we’ll come up with something else. I heard that a man entered Niannian Garden last night and left just before dawn!"
Xu Xinmo exclaimed, "Really?"
Xu Xinmo was ecstatic, "Did you see who it was?"
If she finds out who it was, she’ll make sure Yun Jinnian is notorious. Forget about marrying a good man, she wouldn’t even be able to stay in the Capital City!
