All girls prioritized beauty, and Li Erying was no exception. She simply did not focus on these things in the past because she knew she was not as pretty as other girls.
However, people started saying how beautiful she was, and she was delighted. She even wondered if she had really become prettier. She touched her face and felt her skin was indeed much smoother. Whenever she touched her face in the past, she could feel its roughness.
Some girls looked at Li Eryings skin enviously and could not help asking, “Erying, how did your skin get so fair?”
Everyone wanted to ask her that because they also wanted to become fairer.
Li Erying gave it some thought and said, “My skin seemed to have become much fairer since I started studying medicine with my teacher and her brother.”
That was the truth from her. She felt her skin had become whiter because she often ate and drank at the Su family’s house when studying medicine. She also had to admit that the lunch Su Binglan made was delicious.
Li Erying could eat two steamed buns or two servings of rice daily. Initially, she was too embarrassed to eat much, but Su Binglan would give her more to eat her fill.
The person she liked most among her classmates was Su Binglan. The young lady was also the person Li Erying admired most.
He initially enjoyed studying, but she started anticipating lunch more after a while. Su Binglan and Su Wenxiu would take turns cooking, and the other Su family members would sometimes cook, too.
However, the apprentices looked forward to Su Binglan’s cooking the most. They would help her by cutting vegetables and washing them. They would do these things with anticipation.
The apprentices would also learn to cook from their teachers, who were willing to teach them. Then they realized the food they had cooked in the past was not as healthy as they thought. Only the food Su Binglan made was delicious.
Su Binglan also told her apprentices they could go home and cook what they had learned for their families.
Li Erying was thrilled that she could learn medicine and cooking. She felt her teacher could make any ordinary ingredient taste delicious. After learning from Su Binglan, Li Erying would go home to cook for her grandmother and siblings.
Her family would say her cooking was delicious, and they would eat more than usual. Li Erying felt accomplished when her family complimented her.
The food she made in the past was not as delicious, but she had learned much from her teacher. Hence, she felt happy and fulfilled. After all, learning new things made her happy.
The other girls wanted to know how to become fairer as they felt their skin was darker than they liked. However, they felt like they had gotten struck when they heard Li Erying’s words.
Their hearts felt stimulated as they wanted to study medicine with Su Binglan, but their parents thought a girl’s reputation was too important to study with boys and did not allow them to go.
These girls also thought their reputations were too essential and wondered how Li Erying could spend all her time with boys. These girls even laughed at Li Erying behind her back when she quit her high-paying job at the embroidery shop to study medicine.
They thought Li Erying was stupid and that working at the embroidery shop was better because she could earn plenty of silver. These girls did not know what she could earn since she went to study medicine.
However, learning about medicine was not something one could do overnight. Many had to study for a long time before becoming a doctor.
Now that more than half a month had passed, these girls began to envy Li Erying and become upset that they did not study medicine. They also heard that Li Erying and the other apprentices could eat delicious food Su Binglan made,
Moreover, she taught her apprentices how to cook and even brought them to eat hotpot together. Everyone knew how expensive a meal at the hotpot restaurant was. Even if one had money, one could not eat such a thing on regular days.
Therefore, these girls could only feel envy toward those brave enough to study medicine alongside boys instead of caring about their so-called reputation.
Li Erying had much to say when discussing her life of eating and studying at the Su family’s house. “Miss Su and her family always cook plenty of delicious food for us at noon. She says it’s to nourish us.
“Miss Su and her family are very kind to us and teach us many things. Look, our teacher gave me and my classmates the down jackets we’re wearing. The jackets feel so lovely and warm.
“We also received schoolbags from Miss Su and caught many small animals for research and practice. Miss Su l s house water tastes nicer than usual, and we can sometimes drink fruit juice.
“Miss Su made the fruit juice by squeezing it to taste fresher and more delicious. She also lets us eat whatever new dish she develops.”
Li Erying had endless things to say. The more she spoke, the more excited she became. No one knew how much she and her classmates admired their teachers, especially Su Binglan.
The girls’ expressions changed, and they could only feel envious when they heard Li Eryings words. They screamed inwardly and felt vexed in their hearts.
‘Why were we so ignorant and not fight for a spot back then?!’
Then the girls wondered if Su Binglan would recruit more female apprentices again. After all, they did not know they could enjoy such benefits by becoming her apprentice.
Some of the ladies felt pitiful when they heard Li Eryings words. They could have become Su Binglan’s apprentices and enjoyed such things if they had signed up earlier.
“Is all that true, Erying?” Someone asked unwillingly.
“I’d never lie,” Li Erying said, “My classmates and I know how good Miss Su is, so you can ask them about her, too. I wouldn’t have such fair skin now if not for her.
“She also styled my hair today. She says that since it’s my big brother’s wedding, I should look beautiful, too. How do I look? Miss Su can do it all, right?”
Li Erying would never be so talkative before, but she had plenty of things to say about her teacher.
Everyone felt even more envious and became speechless.
‘How could this be?’ They felt like thunder had struck their hearts.
They were jealous that Li Erying could learn other things besides medicine when spending time with Su Binglan. Moreover, the apprentices could eat delicious food.
Many of these girls’ parents became upset when they heard everything Li Erying said. They would not have cared so much about reputation and sent their daughters to learn from Su Binglan if they had known these things sooner.
After all, it had only been half a month, yet the apprentices had already received so many benefits. No one knew what other benefits the apprentices could get from following Su Binglan.
Su Binglan was talking to Old Madam Li when she turned and saw Li Erying chatting with the people around her. Su Binglan could not help but chuckle.
Old Madam Li said, “Erying has become more lively and confident since she started learning from you. We know how her cooking skills were, but they’ve improved now.”
The older lady was full of praise for her granddaughter’s cooking skills. ‘Miss
Su makes such a good impression on us, especially Erying.’
“Erying is earnest in her studies and has a talent in medicine. She’ll become a doctor in no time.” Su Binglan thought highly of Li Erying.
Old Madam Li was relieved when she heard the young lady’s words. She also felt proud of her grandchildren..
