Chapter 892: Maybe We Were Wrong

After listening to Xinyan’s words, Mr. Du no longer felt conflicted.

Although she didn’t take the path of practicing medicine, it seemed that the young apprentice wouldn’t be any worse than the other apprentices when it came to medicine.

After all, the eldest apprentice, Ma Chengxi, had once said that, unlike other things, Xinyan’s memory and focus were unmatched.

What they didn’t know was that the space played a significant role in this—Xinyan’s senses were incredibly sharp now. Take vision, for example; during surgery, she could easily spot tiny tissues that others couldn’t see, as if she were using a magnifying glass.

She had learned many things while following the elder brother.

The elder brother, Ma Chengxi, was a meticulous person. After discovering Xinyan’s uniqueness, he thought of letting her observe with the junior brother, hoping that perhaps the little sister would become interested and switch majors to become a doctor one day.

Although the possibility was slim, he always wanted to guide the little sister towards medicine.

With her intelligence and medical knowledge, even if she didn’t switch majors, it wouldn’t be hard for her to get certified if she wanted to.

However, this couldn’t be rushed and had to be taken step by step.

After finishing today’s lesson, Xinyan filled her teacher’s teacup with water and poured herself a cup as well: "Master, I won’t be coming over in the next few days, as the final exams are coming up."

Mr. Du nodded: "Understood. By the way, your Sister Lingyun asked me to thank you. The ginseng you found through someone was put to great use."

Xinyan smiled and said, "I’m glad I could help Sister Lingyun."

Xinyan understood that the ginseng probably helped not only Sister Lingyun but also her in-laws. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked her master to thank her again.

As long as it helped Sister Lingyun, it’s all good, especially since she received payment for it.

Now, there weren’t many hundred-year-old ginseng left in the space, but there were plenty of those decades-old, which was delightful to consider.

The two left the pharmacy, and He Jinxuan’s review task was also finished.

Mr. Du glanced sympathetically at He Jinxuan, thinking: Who told you to fancy my outstanding young disciple? You’re just afraid you won’t be able to keep up, seeing yourself at such an old age and still having to suffer this hardship.

Thinking of this, a bit of glee flashed in his eyes—who told you to try for someone much younger.

However, his eyes soon showed appreciation and understanding. Although this guy was somewhat older, he truly cared for Yanyan and was striving hard.

Mr. Du didn’t stick around to be a third wheel and went straight to the front hall to find his wife: "What are you doing here?"

Cheng Liying saw her husband coming out and waved at him: "Yanyan knew I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately, so she found some honey for me through someone. The taste is absolutely lovely, fragrant, smooth, and not too sweet. You should try it too."

Mr. Du sat down with a smile: "Hearing you say that, I really do want to taste it."

After taking the honey water handed to him by his wife, he took a light sip, and his eyes lit up: "This honey is indeed excellent. It could rival top-grade wild honey."

If this honey were used to make big honey pills, the medicinal effect wouldn’t be ordinary.

Cheng Liying saw her husband unable to leave his old profession behind: "Alright, it’s just a little bit, don’t even think about using this honey for that purpose."

The couple exchanged a glance and laughed together.

This warm scene was seen by Xinyan and He Jinxuan, who exchanged a smile, admiring the enduring love between their master and mistress.

After reviewing He Jinxuan’s completed exercises, she directly praised: "With your pace, you’ll definitely score well in the exams, no doubt."

The two didn’t stay long with their master, and as Xinyan was about to leave, she whispered to her teacher: "I’ll get you another jar of that honey, so you can make some big honey pills for comparison. If the effect is extraordinary, keep it for your own use."

Mr. Du, hearing Xinyan’s words, stealthily glanced at his wife: "Then Master will be waiting."

After leaving their master’s place, He Jinxuan escorted Xinyan back to the small courtyard.

As soon as they turned onto the main road, they both sensed something was amiss. Xinyan whispered: "Jinxuan, those people seem to have shown up again."

He Jinxuan lightly patted Xinyan on the hand clasped around his waist: "Seems like last time’s lesson wasn’t enough."

They returned all the way to the outside of the small courtyard, but Xinyan spoke up: "These people don’t seem to be the same as the ones before; maybe we’ve got it wrong."
