“It’s easy when you become use to something you’ll find your own way of identifying them” Le Huan said confidently
In Le Huan could tell any herb or medicine apart just by smelling them this earned his the nickname bloodhound he hated that ridiculous nickname, it was just simply rude and that is why Le Huan never liked tofu the odor was just too strong for his delicate nose.
The next morning all the servants got up bright and early to serve their lady but to their dismay there senior brother Meilin was already up and serving the lady Suyin looked at Le Huan waiting for orders,
“Suyin”
“Yes your ladyship” he said expecting
“Why don’t you go take some rest I don’t need anything at the moment”
Take a rest that’s all he’s been doing and this was a bit irritating the lady wasn’t demanding, and he seems fine he wanted to do something to keep busy.
“Miss it’s about time for you to make some more” Meilin said
“Yes I know that’s to my stay with the emperor I wasn’t able to make any but I should wait a little longer,”
“What is the lady speaking of making?” Ting Ting said
“What?” Qiu said
“The lady and Meilin are planning on making something” he said
“How do you know that?” Qiu asked
“I just heard” Ting Ting said
Qiu looked in amazement they were outside sweeping the yard since they didn’t have much to do how could he heard what they were saying.
“Maybe you heard wrong I can’t hear anything” Qiu said
“Okay” Ting Ting smiled
They both went back to sweeping.
A few days passed and the maids felt super lazy there wasn’t much to do instead of servants they like a Madame it makes them agitated to do something suddenly they heard a big thud in the palace they quickly jumped up and ran inside they were all puzzle when they saw Meilin with a giant pot and there lady with a big bag sack in his hands.
“No my lady let me do that!” Suyin quickly took the bag from her hand
“Let me help brother Meilin” Lifen said helping with the pot
Le Huan said nothing and just nod
“Qiu”
“Yes my lady!” Shouts loudly
“I need you to bring me lots of water” he said gently said
“Yes” he said eagerly he bow then ran to do what he was told
They all went into the kitchen Meilin lit the fire under pot.
Suyin and Lifen wonder what they were planning to do but they felt it was best not to asked they observe their lady as he took out a bag of sack from the bag of sack
“It’s not bad but we may need fresher ingredients Meilin” he said a bit bothered
“My lady is right but I think with the lady’s abilities it won’t make a difference”
Le Huan nods then turn to Qiu who came with bucket filled with water,
“Pour it in the pot” he commands
Qiu nods then follow
“And now we wait”
All the servants wonder what was he doing he could see her carefully taking out herbs and placing them in a large bowl,
“Ting Ting”
“Yes my lady”
“Grass lots of it”
“Grass?”
“Yes grass take it from the back”
“Yes my lady”
Ting Ting ran out the servants was getting more curious as to what he was making watching with anticipation, soon the water in the pot started bubbling Meilin took the bowl and poured it into the pot after awhile the scent of medical herbs filled the air.
“Qiu”
“Yes my lady”
“Go help Ting Ting gather the grass I need them quickly”
“Yes my lady”
“Suyin”
“Yes my lady”
“Pass the grinder the large on Mei Mei lower the fire”
The maids felt hectic as their lady others them around but they didn’t mind they where interested in knowing what comes after.
After finishing what was being made Le Huan took out some putting it in a small bowl then smell it
“Hmmm”
The other servants looked in anticipation as their lady holds his chin looking at the small bowl with particularity.
