Chapter 181: Chapter 181: Why Is She So Good

Su Muyao looked at the enthusiastic crowd and listened to their words. A warm smile appeared on her face as she explained with a smile, "Rest assured, both Su’s Restaurant and Su’s Medical Hall are operating normally."

"I have been a bit busy these past days, delaying the opening, but today I will make more pastries. However, there will be no soy milk today, and at the medical hall, we will address the appointments for the past four days together."

This made today busier, and Wen Nanxi, Hua Linye, and Xiao Jihan all felt sorry for Su Muyao.

Since they couldn’t help at the medical hall, they helped make pastries.

Now, Wen Nanxi and the other two were also able to make pastries, so Su Muyao didn’t have to do it herself.

Su Muyao was responsible for the affairs of the medical hall.

Three appointments a day, twelve appointments in four days.

Many people are also concerned about the matter of taking on apprentices, and couldn’t help but ask, "Doctor Su, is it true what you said about taking on apprentices?"

"It’s true."

"That’s great, Doctor Su, can I study medicine with you? I will pay the apprenticeship fee on time every year."

His family had some wealth, and he knew that the apprenticeship fee for a doctor was very expensive, so his family would prepare for it.

A skilled doctor like Doctor Su wouldn’t normally take on apprentices publicly. Doctors usually don’t pass on their skills outside their family. Doctor Su is different from other doctors, and this opportunity is rare, so everyone is watching closely.

So he must seize an opportunity.

Moreover, he is determined to respect and be filial to his master in the future. Once the apprenticeship ceremony is performed and tea is offered to the master, the Heavenly Dao imposes a restriction, and the apprentice must not betray the master.

Of course, he had no intention of betrayal.

Su Muyao was just about to enter the medical hall to get busy when she suddenly heard these words and froze for a moment, "Apprenticeship fee?"

"Yes, Doctor Su, as long as you take me as an apprentice, you can name the fee."

His family is in business, so they have plenty of crystal coins. No matter how expensive it is, they can afford to pay; it should be several times the regular apprenticeship fee.

Su Muyao looked at everyone’s reactions. They were looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to speak and to say how much the apprenticeship fee would be.

Su Muyao found it amusing, but she also understood that this was a rule on the Beast World Continent, "I don’t charge an apprenticeship fee here."

"No apprenticeship fee?"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"How can there be no apprenticeship fee? Everyone charges."

"Yes, Doctor Su, is it that you don’t want apprentices?"

Everyone was bewildered all of a sudden.

Su Muyao patiently explained, "I don’t charge an apprenticeship fee, but as my apprentice, you must follow my rules. I have strict requirements for medical skills because every decision you make on diagnosis and prescription involves the patient’s body, so carelessness is not allowed."

"Furthermore, as my apprentice, you need to help me with work. You will learn while assisting in the medical hall daily. Once you become proficient, you will need to practice in my medical hall for ten years. After ten years, you can choose to leave or stay. Of course, you will also receive a silver crystal coin monthly as compensation."

A silver crystal coin is a lot.

"Is there really such a good opportunity?"

"To be able to study medicine with Doctor Su for free and practice in Doctor Su’s medical hall after learning, there’s no worry about having no place to practice."

"Yes, and you can help in the medical hall, making it faster to learn how Doctor Su diagnoses and handles treatments..."

Everyone discussed enthusiastically.

"If only I had met a good doctor like Doctor Su in my youth, I would definitely study."

"Yes, now I’m older, and I have to support my family, there’s no time or energy to study medicine."

"I can have my son apply."

"I’ll have my daughter become an apprentice; having a good person like Doctor Su as a master is wonderful..."

Everyone was excited to become apprentices, but Su Muyao said she would interview everyone after a few days to select apprentices.

She planned to handle the affairs of the medical hall and restaurant first these days and take some time to write some basic medical books to facilitate everyone’s learning.

This would take a few days.

Everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

...

Mei Family in the Beast Emperor City

Inside the hall

The Mei Family Master was dining with Mrs. Mei.

At this moment, a subordinate hurriedly arrived at the door, "Reporting to the Lady of the Family, I have something urgent to report."

The Mei Family Master knew that only particularly urgent matters would bring subordinates to interrupt his meal.

Otherwise, no one dared to enter the hall at this time.

"Come in."

The subordinate entered and presented the mechanical bird in his hand.

The Mei Family Master’s face changed. This was his son’s mechanical bird, which was said to be left with his wife upon returning.

It would only be sent over if there was something urgent.

Mrs. Mei looked at the tense expression of the Mei Family Master, "Could it be that something has happened to Mu Yao?"

"Quickly, see what the letter says?"

Their son was currently training in the family’s spiritual pool, preparing for the awakening ceremony, and should not be disturbed at this time.

Some matters they could handle.

The Mei Family Master took out the letter and box.

As soon as he took out the box, he instantly sensed the rich aura of spiritual treasures inside the box.

"Medicinal materials?"

Mrs. Mei urged him, "Read the letter first, quickly see what’s written in it. Does it ask for help?"

Don’t waste a moment’s time.

The Mei Family Master opened the letter and was visibly shocked after reading it.

He then handed the letter to his wife to read.

After that, the Mei Family Master opened the box and indeed found the Thousand-year-old Xuan Frost Flower inside.

The rich aura of spiritual treasures immediately emerged.

"It truly is the Thousand-year-old Xuan Frost Flower."

The Mei Family Master couldn’t believe it. This rare spirit treasure, known only in legends, had indeed been found.

Mrs. Mei was equally shocked after reading it, "That child is so good."

She was moved to tears.

The Mei Family Master said, "There is also a prescription. Along with the Thousand-year-old Xuan Frost Flower, once taken as medicine, your body will be completely healed."

Mrs. Mei said, "Actually, I feel much better now. Mu Yao’s medical skills are far superior to the Imperial Physicians of the Imperial City."

She could feel the changes in her body according to Su Muyao’s prescriptions, and there were no issues, much to the household doctor’s surprise.

"But regarding what Mu Yao asked in the letter, can it really be resolved?"

"There has never been a she-beast who resolved this restriction. This restriction is a good thing for she-beasts but not for beasts, yet she is willing to resolve this restriction for the safety of everyone."

"She is truly wonderful; the more I learn, the more I like her. It’s rare for her to ask us something, so we must help her find the answer."

Mrs. Mei knew the Mei Family Master’s abilities.

"Also, the preserved meat Qing Chen brought back is so delicious."

It’s especially tasty when cooked in pieces and mixed with vegetables, or steamed with rice.

They had been eating the preserved meat these days but were almost finished, savoring even the last bit.

Seeing the solemn expression of the Mei Family Master, Mrs. Mei asked, "Can’t it be resolved?"

The Mei Family Master focused and said, "I don’t know. This is a strong restriction by the Heavenly Dao. I need to perform a powerful sacrificial ritual to get an answer."

"This time it requires Heart Blood."
