The flowers and plants in the garden grow very well, which far better than the herbs she planted in Huangtuo Village. This place seemed to be blessed and nourished with spiritual energy by immortal fairies, and so the plants can grow so well.

The ginseng, purple lantern flowers, butterfly pea flower. These were all good to serve as a medicinal diet. These plants were fragrant and can also nourish the blood and body.

Bai Zhi not only made medicinal diet soup, but also several dishes such as shredded parsley, sweer and sour fish, chicken nuggets, and shredded cabbage. They were not as appetizing as spicy foods, but they were delicious. They were definitely good appetizers.

After busying herself all morning, Bai Zhi finally finished preparing lunch and let the maidservant call everyone.

Zhao Lan and the others came one early, while Dongfang Mu and Dongfang Wan came one step late.

When Dongfang Wan saw Zhao Lan, she immediately smiled at her: “This must be Doctor Bai’s niang, you are so lucky!”

Zhao Lan hurriedly responded: “Madam is joking. What blessing, it is madam, who is blessed.”

Dongfang Wan thought she was only being polite. She didn’t think too much about it. She simply smiled and let everyone take their seats.

Bai Zhi first filled Dongfang Mu’s bowl with ginseng soup: “Master, this soup is suitable for you.”

Dongfang Mu’s smile almost reached his ear: “Good, I’ll try it.”

Bai Zhi also filled Hu Changling’s bowl with ginseng soup: “Hu Bo, you have to drink this too. This soup will nourish your body.”

Hu Changlin happily said: “Okay, I’ll nourish my body.”

Bai Zhi then filled Zhao Lan’s bowl with purple lantern flower soup: “Niang, this is purple lantern flower soup. It can make you calm. You’ve been having difficulty sleeping lately. This soup is good for you.”

Zhao Lan hurriedly delivered the soup to Dongfang Wan: “This bowl should be given to the lady.”

Dongfang Wan hurriedly declined: “Don’t, this is Doctor Bai’s filial piety.”

Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Niang, this purple lantern flower soup is useful for you, but it’s useless for the lady. The lady should drink this butterfly pea flower, which is good for her current condition.”

Zhao Lan brought the soup bowl back and said with a smile: “Silly child, you have to remember from now on, you have to serve the lady first.”

Dongfang Mu waved his hand and said, “No,  you don’t have to be like this. Our Dongfang Family doesn’t care about this stuff. As long as you do things with your heart, it doesn’t matter who is first or last.”

Dongfang Wan also said: “Yes, our Dongfang family has always lived casually. We don’t have to stick to these small rules.”

Dongfang Mu picked up the soup bowl and took a sip. The thick and warm soup slid down to his throat up to his stomach. The special fragrance left by the soup between his lips and teeth was so delicious.

“Is this really a medicated diet?” Dongfang Mu had eaten a medicinal diet before, but he had never eaten a medicinal diet tasted so delicious like this. It’s really hard to imagine that such a delicious soup has the effect of nourishing the body.

Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Of course, this is a medicinal diet made of fresh herbs, so it tastes different. However, the efficacy of this fresh medicine is not as good as those dry herbs, and it is not effective in curing diseases. It can only be used to nourish the body.”

Dongfang Mu said: “That’s enough. Such a medicinal diet, even if you ask me to eat this every day, I will not get bored with it.”

Dongfang Wan also took a sip, and after swallowing, there was still this faint floral scent in her mouth. As if she was only drinking freshly brewed scented tea.

“Your craft, if you open a medicinal restaurant, I am afraid that the Yipinju and Zuixianlou in the capital will bow down their heads on you.” Dongfang Wan said and laughed.

Bai Zhi waved her hand “I like to cook, but only for those people I like. To those irrelevant people, even if they give me money, I will not cook.”
