I became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating

Chapter 191: Radish in Winter, Ginger in Summer

Ji Zhao earnestly memorized Immortal Crane’s instructions and finally thanked him from the bottom of her heart.

“I love mutton. Let’s set up a mutton stove tonight.” Immortal Crane hummed a tune happily and left.

Ji Zhao supported Shen Yao and helped him lie on the bed.

However, when she tried to retract her arm, Shen Yao grabbed her hand forcefully.

“What… what’s wrong?” The distance between them was getting shorter.

Ji Zhao felt a trace of nervousness for no reason.

“Ah Tao.” Shen Yao’s voice was low and magnetic.

Ji Zhao felt her ears itch a little.

“Thank you.” Shen Yao caressed her face gently, his gentle tone filled with gratitude. “If you hadn’t used the classics to encourage me with the story of Lord Guan, I think I definitely wouldn’t have been able to hold on.”

“It hurts, doesn’t it?” Ji Zhao held his hand with heartache and said softly, “When Senior treated your wound just now, I didn’t even dare to look.”

“It doesn’t hurt with Ah Tao by my side.” Shen Yao gently brushed away a strand of hair that had fallen on her forehead. His voice became even gentler.

“Ah Tao, it’s so good to have you.’

“Of course, I’m good to begin with!” Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows smugly and pretended to be relaxed.

Fifteen minutes later, Shen Yao, who had taken the medicine, fell asleep very quickly.

Ji Zhao carefully tucked him in before turning to leave.

Knock knock—

“Come in!” Immortal Crane put down the brush in his hand. The moment he slowly looked up, he happened to see Ji Zhao’s worried expression.

“What’s going on?

“Senior, can you answer my question truthfully?” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and asked seriously, “Can Shen Yao’s leg really be completely healed?”

“Girl, if you don’t believe in my medical skills, why did you ask someone to find

out my whereabouts?” The Immortal Crane sighed helplessly.

“Senior, you’ve misunderstood.” Ji Zhao explained seriously, “It’s not that I don’t believe in your medical skills, but you said before that the injury on Shen Yao’s leg was maliciously caused. In other words, some people hope that Shen Yao can be crippled for the rest of his life.”

“Actually, I’ve heard of your deeds before. You’re an unworldly expert. I don’t think you’ll settle down in Dingyuan County in the future, right?”

“So what?”

“Senior, I actually want to acknowledge you as my master.” Ji Zhao mustered up her courage and said sincerely, “I want to study medicine.”

“After going around in circles for so long, it turns out that you want to become a disciple?” The Immortal Crane never expected that this was what Ji Zhao wanted to talk about.

“Senior, I really want to become your disciple.” Ji Zhao thought for a moment and continued, “I admit that it’s a little abrupt for me to suddenly say this, but I really want to study medicine. Please agree.”

“Girl, can I ask you a question first?” The Immortal Crane looked into her eyes, his gaze solemn. “Learning medicine isn’t something that can be done overnight. More importantly, why are you learning medicine?”

“For Shen Yao.” Ji Zhao shrank her neck guiltily. “I’m worried about him.”

“Oh?” Immortal Crane smiled and raised his eyebrows. “In the end, you still don’t believe in my medical skills?”

“It’s not like that.” Ji Zhao explained anxiously, ‘Senior’s medical skills are famous, so how can I not believe you? I’m just worried about Shen Yao. Back then, he only passed the Elementary Scholar examination and attracted the harm of people with ulterior motives. If he enters the official career in the future, I’m afraid he will have to face even more tests.”

“There are thousands of candidates participating in the imperial examination every year. There are less than 30 people who can be on the rankings. Are you so confident in your husband?” Immortal Crane could not help but tease. “Are you so sure that once your husband chooses this path, he will definitely be ranked on the Golden Rankings?”

“Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded firmly.

“You seem to have a lot of confidence in your man?” Immortal Crane could not help but laugh. Then, he shook his head. “I have no intention of accepting a disciple. ”

In other words, he was rejecting her.

“Senior, can you give me a chance?” Ji Zhao begged again.

“A doctor should have a benevolent heart, and a medical practitioner should have a benevolent heart and treat the world as his own.” Immortal Crane looked at her and said earnestly, “You are studying medicine for Shen Yao alone. It’s a little selfish.”

“Senior, forgive me for not agreeing with your words.” Ji Zhao shook her head gently. “1 know that doctors are benevolent, but Senior, do you really think that all the people who study medicine in this world have the original intention of helping the world? There was once a sentence that left a deep impression on me. How can one sweep the world without sweeping their house? I admit that I’m selfish, but if I can’t even protect the people around me, how can I help others?”

Immortal Crane did not expect Ji Zhao to say such a thing. Although it sounded a little selfish, after careful consideration, he could tell that it made sense.

“Senior, it’s getting late. I’ll go prepare the mutton pot first.” Ji Zhao smiled faintly. Before she left, she did not forget to turn around and say, “I’m not the kind of person who gives up easily! I think that sooner or later, you’ll be moved by me and take me in as your disciple-‘

At 6pm, Shanghe Village welcomed another snowstorm.

It was snowing heavily. Before long, the entire village was enveloped in a white sea.

In the kitchen, Ji Zhao was cutting radishes.

“As the saying goes, we eat radishes in the winter and ginger in the summer. Let’s have a mutton warming pot tonight.” Ji Zhao smiled as she cut the radishes. “Mother, can you help me wash another bunch of green onions?

“Alright!” Zhao Lanhua quickly replied with a smile. “By the way, Ah Tao, can Third Brother drink this mutton and radish soup?

“Yes, I’ve already asked Senior.”

“That’s good.” Zhao Lanhua was relieved. “Ah Tao, Immortal Crane has helped us so much. Shouldn’t we prepare some gifts in return?

“Aren’t we already preparing?” Ji Zhao smiled. “Immortal Crane has already said that he wants to eat mutton soup”

“But isn’t this return gift a little too light?”
“Mother, you and Father spent a lot of effort to buy this mutton from Aunt Guihua. I think as long as our intentions are fulfilled, Immortal Crane will definitely understand,” Ji Zhao explained seriously.

“Alright.” Zhao Lanhua nodded. Then, she thought of something else. “By the way, Ah Tao, your father has already found someone to help with the plan you mentioned earlier.. Are we going to Pomegranate Village tonight?”
