Grandpa Xie nodded and patted Xie Li's head. "Child, it's the Xie family's fault for not taking good care of you."
"Remember this, the Xie family is your home. We will make it up to you and take care of you in the future, and we won't let anyone dare to bully you!"
The old man's palm was warm and firm, and Xie Li nodded obediently.
Pharmacist Chen, still preoccupied with other matters, couldn't help but remind him, "Old Master, there's something I need to report to you. Miss Xie Li's alchemy skills are probably far superior to mine..."
He wasn't sure at first, because those hair growth serums and one hair growth pill didn't really prove anything.
As for the medicinal fragrance that allowed him to successfully break through to the intermediate level, coupled with the recent string of good news from Xie Ziyuan in the capital, he had to admit that it was probably an intermediate-level pill that Xie Ziyuan had sent from the capital.
After all, it's quite difficult to convince people that a village girl who can't even enjoy compulsory education can concoct medicine.
However, Xie Li's words at the TCM base today forced him to believe that what Xie Li said was true.
Moreover, he had vaguely seen a bit of the technique Xie Li used to treat Old Master Xie just now...
Grandpa Xie nodded calmly, "Yes, I know."
If all of the previous speculations were just that, Xie Li's direct transmission of internal energy just now allowed him to directly feel that Xie Li's abilities were probably far superior to his own.
Although he had many questions in his mind, Grandpa Xie did not ask them.
Xie Li, on the other hand, was completely confused: "My alchemy skills are alright, but they're not that great either. Everything I know was taught to me by my grandfather when I was a child."
Pharmacist Chen: "!!!"
Grandpa Xie: "!!!"
Seeing the shocked expressions on their faces, Xie Li pondered, "The Xie Family's Hundred Herbs Manual, Grandpa, do you still remember it? You used to teach me to recite it when I was little, and you even let me flip through it to play with. Isn't there something in it..."
Before she could finish speaking, Old Master Xie asked excitedly, "You still remember 'Xie's Herbal Compendium'?"
The old man almost got out of bed again.
Pharmacist Chen also looked emotional. No wonder Old Master Xie was so excited; he felt excited just thinking about it.
How old was Xie Li at that time? Although she showed extraordinary intelligence when she was less than a year old, she was still a toddler.
The reason why Old Master Xie values Xie Li is because Xie Li grew up in the Xie family and was personally taught by Old Master Xie.
Upon learning that she had been living in the countryside for fifteen years and had not even been able to attend school, everyone was utterly disappointed.
Xie Li missed out on so much. During the most important years of her youth when she should have been receiving education, she was instead farming in the fields to support her family. How could she possibly make up for the fifteen years she had fallen behind others? Even if she were a genius, she would probably be ruined.
But now Xie Li is not only not ruined, but at the tender age of two, he has memorized the "Xie Family Herbal Manual," which is difficult for even adults to understand, and has become self-taught?
This surprise was quite huge, and Mr. Xie said he needed to process it slowly.
Xie Li blinked blankly, a little confused about the situation.
Still thinking about Grandpa Xie's health, she couldn't help but reach out, "Grandpa, can I take your pulse?"
Pharmacist Chen stood up excitedly, "Old Master..."
Old Master Xie understood his meaning and reached out for Xie Li to take his pulse, but worried that Xie Li was under too much pressure, he said gently, "My poison is very strange. It is thanks to your Sacred Heart Fruit that I was able to refine the Fragrant Heart Soup and protect my life..."
