Chapter 66 - Unsharpened Angle
Although Wei Qing repeatedly told herself that there was no one under the roof who would not lower their head, she still had to get up early to be in charge of picking medicinal ingredients, and even cook for this damned old man.
"Since I've already offered him my tea, I might as well die or stay here and listen obediently!"
Wei Qing angrily snorted at him.
"Hurry up and pick the medicinal herbs!"
Wei Qing looked at him coldly, "What exactly is your name?!"
"Why should I tell you when I'm not even addressing you as' Master '?"
Wei Qing focused on him, and the flames of anger in his eyes burned more and more fiercely, "You can't be committing an offense against the imperial government, right?"
The old man was extremely angry, and even his eyebrows and whiskers started to float up.
As his voice fell, he was hit on the head with a heavy blow.
Wei Qing was in pain, her red eyes staring straight at him, "Why did you make such a move?"
Just as he finished speaking, he was struck once again.
The two consecutive blows had caused Wei Qing great pain.
"Hey!"
"If you still don't go, there won't be any food for you tonight!" The old man was not courteous at all, he was like a snake striking a snake seven inches away, causing the sharp aura around Wei Qing to dissipate a bit.
"Just go!" Wei Qing muttered softly, "If she doesn't even want to say her name, then there must be something fishy."
The old man watched her as she walked further and further away. Although he was angry, he also felt that it was interesting.
When Wei Qing went to pick up the herbs, she accidentally found a notebook. The handwriting was elegant and seemed to be written personally by the old man, on it were recorded many poisons that she had never heard of before, she could not help but read them with interest.
"Cough, cough ~ ~ ~"
Hearing the cough, Wei Qing suddenly raised her head. Looking at the old man's eyes that were brimming with anger, the corners of her lips stiffened.
"Where are the medicinal herbs that were picked?" the old man asked.
Wei Qing's smile became even more unsightly, and she asked, "Master, are you called Chen Yang?"
The old man frowned. "How do you know?"
Wei Qing waved the notes in her hand, "Chen Yang, it should be your notes!"
"You're a monkey spirit!" After Chen Yang finished speaking, his expression became gloomy once again, "Go and make lunch!"
Wei Qing rubbed her ears, "Can't you just speak properly?"
She had just looked at her notes and realized that Chen Yang was indeed a highly skilled person in medical arts. If she could learn something from him, it would truly be beneficial for her.
Seeing that although she was dissatisfied, she did not continue to be against him, Chen Yang raised his eyebrows.
The ingredients in the kitchen were relatively simple. Wei Qing thought for a moment, then decided to make the stew.
When she brought in the two bowls of stew, Chen Yang took a whiff, it was quite fragrant!
"What is this?" Chen Yang glared at Wei Qing.
"Master, don't be angry. Taste it!" Wei Qing laughed as she picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, her lips leaving a trace of fragrance, "So fragrant!"
"Don't fool me!" Chen Yang picked up the chopsticks, and only took a sip, and already felt that the stew was unusually pleasant. The rice grains were mixed with the delicate fragrance of the dishes and the fragrance of the rice was also in the dish. It was truly not bad.
"Pa ~ ~"
Wei Qing's head exploded with pain, causing her eyes to redden from the pain, "Master, what do you mean by this?"
"Well done!" Chen Yang praised.
Wei Qing curled her lips and rubbed her sore spot with all her might.
After finishing his lunch, Chen Yang gave Wei Qing a lot of missions, and was able to accept anything related to medicinal ingredients. The only thing he wanted was for her to go to the garden and pick vegetables. This left her abnormally speechless.
If not for her, how would Chen Yang normally solve his problem of being fed and warmed?
However, she still wanted to follow Chen Yang and study hard, so she could only endure and go to the garden.
He quickly picked a few cucumbers, picked some other vegetables, and hurried back.
Chen Yang did not know what he was doing, at first, Wei Qing thought that she would be punished even though he came back so late, but Chen Yang only looked at her from the window, and did not say anything.
Wei Qing went to the kitchen and made a cucumber with a straw cape and a small dish. After cooking the rice, she called Chen Yang over to have dinner.
"Master, the rice in the rice jar is almost finished."
Chen Yang answered with a "En" sound, "I don't need you to worry!"
Originally, when Wei Qing saw that the rice jar was about to hit the bottom, she was very happy. She felt that she could use this as an excuse to report her safety to her father.
"Master, what poison are you working on now?" "It's better if I go down the mountain and buy rice!"
Chen Yang looked at her without blinking, his gaze was like an X-ray machine, and could see through Wei Qing's thoughts in an instant.
However, Wei Qing was not an ordinary person.
She forced herself to remain calm, and looked at Chen Yang for a while, then said: "That's right, I have this idea to report to my family!"
"Are you from the capital?" Chen Yang asked.
After Wei Qing told her her identity and heard that she was a daughter of the Prime Minister Wei, a glint flashed across Chen Yang's eyes.
"Master, if you're worried, I'm afraid that I won't come back after I go back. You have so many poisons, if you feed me one, I won't be able to escape even if I had wings!"
"The poison from before was so tyrannical. Didn't you dispel it as well?"
Just now, Chen Yang thought that this cucumber was unusually tasty, but when he heard that she was the daughter of the Prime Minister Wei, he felt that there was no taste in her mouth.
Wei Qing naturally noticed Chen Yang's change in attitude, her brows furrowed as she stared at him for a moment. Originally, she wanted to ask him about it, but after thinking about it for a moment, she decided to pretend that she did not see anything.
The mountain was abnormally quiet at night. Wei Qing looked at Chen Yang's notes very seriously, and firmly memorized all the medicinal formulas.
After tossing and turning for a long time, she fell into a deep sleep on the table.
When the door opened, Chen Yang walked in and covered her with an outer coat, looking very seriously at her face that was very similar to someone's.
No wonder when he first met her, he felt that she was this intimate. She was actually Wei Jie's daughter!
Is she all right?
Wei Qing muttered, Chen Yang's heart skipped a beat, and quickly left.
The next day, when she woke up, Wei Qing rubbed her drowsy eyes. Just as she was about to get up, the clothes on her body slipped down and she was stunned.
This smelly old geezer is quite cute!
After exiting the bamboo house, she called out "Master", but did not hear a response. She could not help but raise her eyebrows, and went to medicine hut.
On the medicine hut's door, there was a piece of paper, with a list of the things that Wei Qing had to do today.
Wei Qing who was just thinking that Chen Yang was very cute suddenly started to smoke from the top of his head, "What, he's being exploited!"
She took a deep breath and went to the kitchen. When she saw the porridge, her bad mood was mostly gone again.
Perhaps this old man was just afraid that he would run away!
With that in mind, she stopped getting angry, drank some porridge, and went to medicine hut.
He quickly packed up a pile of precious medicinal ingredients and prepared to leave.
