I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 185
185 Tsk Tsk, Who Are You Lying to?
“Then let’s work hard together?” Ji Zhao smiled brightly at him, her gaze becoming even gentler.
“Mm.”
At the end of November, Dingyuan County welcomed the first snow.
The snowflakes fluttered. In less than half a day, the entire Dingyuan County was painted dreamily.
!!
Before 3pm, all the delicacies in the frying shop were sold out.
“Shen Yao, since the snow isn’t heavy today, let’s go back to the village?” After Ji Zhao cleaned up the counter, she turned around and walked to Shen Yao, who was reading.
“Okay.”
However, just as the couple walked out of the shop, a thin old man suddenly fell in front of them!
“Sir?” Shen Yao hurriedly helped him up. He subconsciously checked the old man’s breathing and said nervously, “Ah Tao, this old man is on his last breath!”
“Shen Yao, help the old man into the shop first,” Ji Zhao said hurriedly. “I’ll go to the kitchen of the restaurant to see if there’s any hot soup left. Hurry up and find Second Brother You to help. Get a doctor over!”
“Okay!”
After an hour, the man who had suddenly fainted finally woke up.
“Uncle, how do you feel? Are you feeling better?”
“It’s all your fault!” The old man suddenly pointed at Ji Zhao’s nose and scolded unreasonably. “If it weren’t for you, would I have fainted from hunger?”
Ji Zhao was dumbfounded and asked in a daze, “Uncle, I don’t think I’ve seen you before today? Did you get the wrong person?”
Could it be that there was a scammer now?
“Let me ask you, do you own Ah Tao’s Fried Snack Shop?”
“Yeah!”
“Those chicken fingers and toothpick meat, are they all delicacies you made?”
“Yeah!”
“Then isn’t that your fault?” The old man puffed up his cheeks angrily. “It’s all your fault for cooking so deliciously. Ever since I ate the delicacies you made, I felt that the dishes in the inn were bland and tasteless. Every day, I hoped to buy a serving of chicken fingers. In the end, when I just arrived today, you closed the shop!”
“I fainted because you angered me!”
“Um…”
Ji Zhao had never expected such a scene.
“Then what else do you want to eat?” Ji Zhao smiled kindly and asked, “Shall I make it for you?”
“I don’t have money!” The old man pursed his lips and muttered angrily.
“I say, big brother, isn’t your temper too unreasonable?” Second Manager You, who was standing at the side, really couldn’t stand it anymore. “The couple saved you, but you don’t even thank them? You still want to eat without money?”
“It’s none of your business.” The old man with a head full of gray hair said angrily, “Do you have the right to speak here?”
“I…” Second Manager You, who had been scolded, was also furious!
“Second Brother You.” Shen Yao smiled and shook his head at him. Then, he walked to the old man and asked softly, “Uncle, since you’re fine now, please be on your way.”
“You’re a cripple?” Seeing Shen Yao’s walking posture, the old man subconsciously narrowed his eyes. “You’ve been crippled for a few years, right?”
“Enough!” Ji Zhao couldn’t stand it anymore. “Uncle, we don’t welcome rude people like you here. Please leave.”
“Tsk tsk, this I was just telling the truth! Why did you suddenly lose your temper?” The old man muttered aggrievedly.
“I’m still hungry. Can you get me something else to eat before I go?”
Ji Zhao was so angry that she laughed. She had never seen such a thick-skinned old man!
“Of course, I won’t eat and drink for free.” The old man’s gaze landed on Second Manager You’s face. He raised his eyebrows and said, “Come over and show me your tongue.”
For a moment, Second Manager You suspected that the old man in front of him was not very smart.
“Do you often feel that your mouth is dry and tasteless? Even your hands and feet are heavy and your joints are sore?” While Second Manager You was in a daze, the old man had already grabbed his right hand and checked his pulse. “Your pulse is both heavy and slow. It’s a symptom of dampness entering your body. Open your mouth!”
For some reason, when Second Manager You heard those three words, he could not help but open his mouth.
“You have a thick tongue and a strange smell in your mouth.” The old man pinched his nose in disgust and said angrily, “Are you especially hot every summer?”
“How do you know that?”
Second Manager You was completely stunned.
“Soak your feet with boiled wormwood for three months. After taking medicinal soup for half a month, the dampness in your body will be removed.” The old man said in a low voice, “Of course, it’s fine if you don’t believe me. At most, you’ll become fatter and fatter in the future. You won’t even be able to breathe when you walk.”
“Uncle, are you a doctor?” Ji Zhao was suddenly enlightened. “Could you be the famous Immortal Crane?”
Ji Zhao suddenly remembered that there were some records of Immortal Crane in the original work!
He had a head full of white hair, a childish temper, loved delicious food, and liked to mock people!
However, his medical skills were superb and he often helped poor people.
Overall, he was a kind, benevolent, yet prideful and awkward old man with a childish temper!
“Girl, you have a good eye, huh?” Immortal Crane smiled calmly.
“It’s really you? What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you immediately.” Ji Zhao was extremely excited and asked happily!
“I want to eat braised noodles. Do you know how to make it?”
“Yes!” Ji Zhao nodded hurriedly. “As long as it’s something you want to eat, I’ll make it!”
Ji Zhao rushed into the restaurant’s kitchen and began to make braised noodles!
The method of making braised noodles was still a little difficult. The most important thing was to concoct the braising sauce. Fortunately, the kitchen of the restaurant had all kinds of ingredients!
Immortal Crane thought for a moment and said to Second Manager You, “Go prepare some paper, ink, brush, and inkstone. I’ll write a prescription for the medicinal soup for you.”
“Thank you, Immortal!”
In the end, Immortal Crane fixed his gaze on the silent Shen Yao. “Are you still angry? Although what I said just now was a little straightforward, I’m telling the truth. You’re indeed a cripple!”
Shen Yao smiled nonchalantly. “You’ve misunderstood. I’m not angry.”
“Tsk tsk, who are you trying to fool?”
“Whether you believe me or not, I’m really not angry.” Shen Yao smiled calmly. “I’ve heard your story before, but you’re different from what I imagined.”
“Oh? How is it different?” Immortal Crane was suddenly curious.
“I heard of Immortal Crane, who is kind-hearted, helping the world. Therefore, the impression of Immortal Crane in my mind is that he is a kind and amiable old man. As for you, your temper is strange and doesn’t match the rumors.”
“Kid, are you trying to mock me?”
