Chapter 1132 - 042 Dog Hole (Vote Request)_2
"Just in time, the letter I wrote to your aunt and the others yesterday hasn’t been sent out yet. I’ll write another one later, and we can send them both together tomorrow."
Lady Liu pondered for a moment, and thinking of the near future when she would be reunited with her parents and siblings, her heart suddenly blossomed with joy. The more she thought about it, the more restless she became. She got up, took Lin Jiaxin by the arm, and headed toward the study, "Quick, write the letter for me. I wonder if parents will be able to come along this time. My younger sister-in-law should be showing by now, so it must be inconvenient for her to travel. Surely, parents wouldn’t let her go through the hardship of traveling to the Capital city."
Prattling on, Lady Liu and Lin Jiaxin had already left the living room.
Xiao Linshuang rubbed her belly with her eyes closed, when suddenly she heard Lao Fan ask, "Apprentice, what good things did you learn today?"
Without opening her eyes, Xiao Linshuang pouted and replied, "Didn’t learn much, just boiled medicine all day. Hey, smell this, smell this, I reek of nothing but the dregs!"
As she spoke, she brought her sleeve near Lao Fan’s nose.
To her surprise, Lao Fan actually wrinkled his nose and after a while, said, "Hmm, Angelica, Bai Zhi, Codonopsis, Astragalus, Panax notoginseng, Bupleurum, Scotch broom leaves..."
With every herb name Lao Fan mentioned, Xiao Linshuang’s face grew a shade darker; having been with her master for so long, this was the first time she found out he had such a skill! He could actually sniff the scent of the medicine dregs and name the herbs she had been decocting that day—it was unbelievable!
"Master, master, did you sneak off to Hall of Salvation today without telling me? Huh? How do you know what medicine I boiled today?" Xiao Linshuang’s eyes shimmered. After returning, she had gone to the trouble of changing clothes and washing her face; could there still be a lingering scent?
Lao Fan, looking smug, lifted his eyelids and said, "Did you wash your hair?"
Hair?
