Chapter 424: Your Ability
Hearing what The Dean said…
Gu Chaoyan stopped what she was doing, put aside the jar and asked the Dean, “What does he want?”
“He asked you to pay a visit home, since your Second Sister is getting married.” The Dean shook his head as he spoke. “Lord Ling is marrying her in the same manner as the Princess Consort, which is totally against the rule.”
He had thought that Lord Ling was a polite, gentle man, and a very promising lord too, but it seemed that everything was different.
However, he was one of the imperial children, and
he could not say anything about that, so he made a complaint and said no more.
Then he followed the scent and checked the medicine in the jar.
He smiled. “Chaoyan, the medicine you make seems much more fragrant than that made by others.”
Gu Chaoyan’s face twitched.
She was not sure if the Dean was speaking highly of her. If that was the way he praised, he was indeed doing it in a very special way.
“Dean, I need to pay a visit home tomorrow, but this patient…” Gu Chaoyan was worried. She was afraid that the incident would occur again, but she could not possibly bring the patient along with her. He was too seriously injured to be moved about. That was indeed a very awkward situation, so even Gu Chaoyan could not come up with any better solutions.
“Just leave him to me,” the Dean said directly, “Huang Xuan has joined the army and gone to Jiayu Pass, so I have no special errands to deal with in the near future. I will take care of him until he is able to get out of bed.”
That made Chaoyan feel assured.
Seeing that there was nothing more she could do, Gu Chaoyan took the jar and poured it into one bowl, placed it on the tray and was about to carry it to the patient.
The Dean did not show any intention of tagging along.
He kept sniffing the medicine in the jar, thought for a while and had a small taste of it.
Gu Chaoyan turned around and saw that scene, shaking her head and thinking that he was indeed a very naughty elderly man.
“Elder Miss, here you are, the man has woken up. I was about to get you.” Sword One arrived, took the tray and they started to head towards the room.
In the room.
The man had woken up.
Gu Chaoyan let out a sigh of relief – it seemed that the poison was gone.
“Drink this bowl of medicine, you should be ready to get off the bed within one week’s time.” Gu Chaoyan did not look at him, but spoke as she was writing the prescription.
That man drank it in one attempt, not fearing the bitterness.
After he finished the medicine, he turned to Gu Chaoyan.
He did not really know where he was, but whenever he woke up, he could see this girl feeding him medicine, acupuncturing him and trying her best to save him!
“Miss, when I am cured, can I be your servant?!” The man said with determination.
Gu Chaoyan was writing the prescription and did not look up at him until she finished the last word.
Gu Chaoyan had not made a careful observation of him before, but as she took a closer look at him, she found that he was a hunter, tall and strong. He must have some knowledge of martial arts and abilities, otherwise he would not have run away from the apes. However, he might need some training, so he would not get so badly injured next time.
She already got Sword Four with her, but all of them were Zhou Huaijin’s personnel. She did need to start cultivating staff of her own.
This man looked proper. However, it was not that easy to be her servant.
“Then we have to see what you are capable of,” Gu Chaoyan said calmly.
