The white-haired old man frowned and said, "Girl, do you know what happened to the person who told me the secret before?"
"What happened?" Xie Yunjiao asked curiously.
"The end is very miserable!" said the white-haired old man in a mysterious tone.
"Forget it. You're a doctor, and your duty is to save lives and heal the wounded. How could you do something that goes against your professional ethics?"
Wait a minute, how did Xie Yunjiao guess that he was a doctor?
And what she said later about saving the dying and the wounded has nothing to do with him, okay?
He knows medicine, but not everyone is willing to treat him.
In the entire Kyushu, he is the only one who lives so freely.
Even when the emperor asked him to treat his illness and promised him millions of taels of gold and a beautiful woman in a golden house, he refused.
But as long as it is someone he wants to cure, he will cure them even if they have no money.
His greatest hobby in life was eating, but he had tried everything in the palace and found it boring, so he slipped out of the palace.
"How do you know my identity?" Ye Baien couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"Although the smell of medicine on you is very faint, your hands are used to handling needles all year round, and the calluses on your hands are easy to tell," said Xie Yunjiao.
Ye Baien suddenly realized.
However, it is rare to find someone as observant as Xie Yunjiao.
"I seem to have seen you ask someone to fetch a bucket of water from the Qingshui River outside the city. Could it be that the soup here is cooked with the water from the Qingshui River?" Ye Baien asked again.
"That's right." Xie Yunjiao replied.
Ye Baien raised his eyebrows. Could it be that muddy river water can produce such a complex and special taste?
Xie Yunjiao knew from the look on his face that he was thinking wrongly!
"You misunderstood. In fact, you can make this dish even with well water."
No matter what kind of water it is or how dirty it is, it will become pure water after distillation, and the minerals in it are basically removed.
"Then why do you..."
"Because I want to be mysterious." Xie Yunjiao said.
Those people looked down on her and deliberately made things difficult for her.
She just wanted to use her own strength to tell those people that just because they didn't understand something didn't mean she didn't understand it.
It wasn't just a blind cat catching a dead mouse last time, she has real talent!
"That river..."
"I have distilled it, and it is very clean. I have obtained a soft water, which has been stewed, and it is better to blend with the fat and flavor of the meat."
“No wonder the soup I had was different from any I’ve had anywhere else.”
He asked what the difference was, but he couldn't put his finger on it for a moment.
Now he finally knew the answer: it turned out that the water quality was different.
"Little girl, you are a good cook. I am optimistic about you." Ye Baien said.
"Sir, your medical skills must be amazing. I wonder if you could accept me as your disciple?" Xie Yunjiao asked.
She did not kneel down to Ye Baien because she did not want to force Ye Baien, but wanted him to willingly accept her as his disciple.
In the past, she only studied food, thinking that she could use food to make people happy.
But since coming here, she realized how important it is to understand medicine and be able to treat patients.
If she knew medicine, she wouldn't have been so panicked when Uncle Niu got into trouble yesterday.
If there wasn’t that little bit of spiritual spring water yesterday, Uncle Niu might have died!
"You're a cook, why are you interested in studying medicine?"
"Because I want to learn more, do more, and make it easier for those around me."
Ye Baien shook his head, a sad light in his eyes: "Sometimes, even if you have the ability to protect the people around you, you may not be able to really help."
Xie Yunjiao was also infected by his sadness and felt a little uncomfortable. She said lightly: "But if you don't understand anything, it will be even more difficult for you to help."
Ye Baien nodded, it was indeed true.
Her words made him understand something.
"But I won't accept you as my apprentice, because I promised someone that I would never accept another apprentice in this life."
Xie Yunjiao's eyes darkened, and a hint of disappointment flashed in them.
"Is that so? All right then."
She has been reading medical books recently and has hit a bottleneck.
She couldn't judge many pulse conditions just by looking at the descriptions in books, especially some diseases with very similar pulse conditions.
That's why she wanted to find a reliable person to learn medicine from, but Ye Baien was unwilling to accept her as his disciple, so she could only find another good teacher.
"Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll go down first."
"Wait a moment," Ye Baien couldn't bear to see Xie Yunjiao leave and look at her sad face. "Although I will no longer accept disciples, you can still ask me if you have any questions you don't understand, as long as I'm still here."
Xie Yunjiao looked at Ye Baien in surprise: "Is what you said true?"
"Of course." Ye Baien replied.
"Then I have a question now, can you help me answer it?"
"Go ahead."
Zhong Wanshan and Butler Zhong received the notification from Yuemanlou and rushed over immediately.
But they had been waiting outside the box booked by Ye Baien for a long time, but neither Ye Baien nor Xie Yunjiao came out.
What is going on?
Didn’t Ye Baien get angry and was eager to see Xie Yunjiao?
Zhong Wanshan and Butler Zhong naturally did not forget that Ye Baien had lost his temper at them before, saying a lot of nasty things.
But now there is no movement inside, which is unusual.
"Boss, do you want to knock on the door?"
Butler Zhong lost his patience and said that if the guests got angry later, he would say it was all his fault.
Zhong Wanshan thought about it and decided that this was the only way.
Butler Zhong raised his hand and was about to knock on the door when it was opened from the inside.
Xie Yunjiao walked out with a smile on her face. Seeing Zhong Wanshan and Butler Zhong standing at the door, she was stunned: "Boss, Butler, why are you all here?"
Butler Zhong looked at Xie Yunjiao with a serious expression: "We heard there was trouble, so we came to take a look."
Xie Yunjiao smiled, she already knew what was going on.
It's easy to tell that it was the people in the kitchen who were responsible, and the person who ordered them to do so must be Master Zheng!
"There was no trouble and the guests were very satisfied with the dishes I cooked," said Xie Yunjiao.
"satisfy?"
Zhong Wanshan and Butler Zhong looked at each other, both with confusion in their eyes. That's not what those people said. They said the guests were angry.
"Otherwise, could the host and Butler Zhong go in and ask the guests?"
Ask Ye Baien? Forget it.
Ye Baien has such a bad temper and gets angry easily. If you speak carelessly, you will offend him.
If they are not careful, the sound will crackle and pop like a lit firecracker, and their ears will not be able to bear it.
"I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to prepare medicinal food for the guests."
Xie Yunjiao left in a hurry.
Zhong Wanshan and Butler Zhong caught up with Xie Yunjiao, wanting to find out what was going on.
Most of the people in the kitchen were waiting to see the show, and when they saw Xie Yunjiao walking back calmly, they were all stunned.
