Chapter 32: Breaking into Dongli Villa Alone at Night
Wasn’t there a Hua Tuo1 in history textbooks?
The green-headed old man was stunned for a moment, his mouth bright red. “What makes me look like a divine doctor? Girl, don’t waste your time. I’m just an old man who makes fire in the Valley of the Medicine Masters.”
The more he explained, the more Bai Caoshi felt that he was unfathomable.
The old man took another big bite of meat and changed the topic. “Do you call the braised pork Dongpo? Which slope in the east1?”
Bai Caoshi was amused by him. “No, Uncle Hua, Dongpo is from my hometown… He’s a foodie. Oh, no, no, he’s a customer. He modified the braised meat. Is it delicious?”
The green-headed old name did not dwell on the name. It was fine as long as it was delicious. “Yes, it’s delicious. It’s even better than what I used to eat. Not going to lie it’s delicious to cook with red koji.”
Having won the favor of the green-headed old man, Bai Caoshi was secretly pleased with herself. She took out her cane from behind her back and said, “Uncle Hua, I took the time to make a small trinket for you. Don’t complain that my hands are clumsy and rough.”
The green-headed old man stopped eating. He roughly knew how much effort the little girl had put into this banquet. Where did she squeeze out the time to make this stuff? He glanced at her hands which were wrapped like cocoons. Not every finger had turned into cocoons, revealing a few, but the few that were exposed were also covered in blisters.
He would not know that this was the slyness of Bai Caoshi. The bag was covered with uninjured fingers, and what was exposed was the wounded.
The green-headed old man placed the remaining two pieces of Dongpo meat on the steps and turned around to enter the room. A moment later, he came out with a small bottle in his hand. “I’m not a freeloader. Take this medicine.”
Bai Caoshi took it with a smile. Look, he had returned the favor so quickly. She bowed and said, “Then I’ll thank Uncle Hua.”
The green-headed old man finished the remaining two pieces of meat in one go. He even nibbled on his fingers to see that Bai Caoshi had yet to leave. “Why aren’t you going back to apply medicine? What are you doing here?”
This was an order to leave.
“Oh, oh, Uncle Hua, what do you like? I can give you special treatment tomorrow.” In order to please the only person in the Valley of the Medicine Masters, Bai Caoshi was extremely unscrupulous.
“Do you really think this is your house? Girl, behave yourself and go back quickly.”
“Oh,” Bai Caoshi replied gloomily and walked out of the door. Just as her fingers touched the door, she saw a figure weakly pounce into her arms. The sticky and thick smell of blood assaulted her nose.
When she took a closer look, she was terrified. Wasn’t that Zhe Yu? Why was he like this?! His face was frighteningly pale.
The green-headed old man strode over and closed the door behind him.
There were urgent footsteps outside the door, and someone was knocking. “Senior green-headed man, did you see a figure enter the courtyard?”
The green-headed old man didn’t say anything. The people outside kept knocking on the door. After about five breaths, the green-headed old man opened the door, revealing only his head. He yawned heavily. “Who is it? I’m still sleeping!”
The person who asked was a servant of the villa. From this, it could be seen that the villa was actually heavily guarded. “Today, a vicious bandit barged into the villa and killed one of the esteemed guest’s subordinates. I’m just reminding senior to prevent the bandit from taking advantage of the situation.”
The servants left. Bai Caoshi’s expression was grave as she held Zhe Yu and bowed to the green-headed elder. “Uncle Hua, this is my husband. He must have been worried that I would go missing today and came looking for me. He is definitely not the vicious bandit that those people say he is. Uncle Hua, please protect my husband’s life. I, Bai Caoshi, will definitely repay you for your kindness.”
