It seed that this family has been dicinal cuisine experts since generations.
Looking at the residence, a problem suddenly crossed Huo Yao’s mind. She turned to look at Min Yu solemnly. “I didn’t bring any gifts. Will I get chased away?”
Min Yu was completely tickled by this young woman. He shook his head and replied gravely. “Don’t worry. Old Mr. Yi doesn’t care about formalities.”
Huo Yao touched her nose. Just as she was about to speak further, Zhuo Yun ca over with two boxes of gifts after parking the car.
The butler led them into the main hall courteously. “Young Master Min, Old Master Yi is cooking in the kitchen. Have so tea first. He’ll co over soon.”
Min Yu nodded to him politely and the butler took his leave.
Huo Yao sat on the mahogany chair and raised her head to glance around. She complinted the surroundings genuinely. “The place is pretty interesting.”
Min Yu poured so tea for Huo Yao and pushed the cup towards her. “Old clans have a lot of history. The Yi family’s ancestors were palace dicinal cuisine chefs. Although tis have changed, they still command an unshakable status in the city.”
Huo Yao picked up the teacup and took a sip. Suddenly, she said sadly, “Why does it sound like I passed up a perfect opportunity?”
Min Yu looked at her.
Huo Yao coughed uneasily. “Nothing”
Before long, Old Mr. Yi walked up to them, clad in an apron with the freshly prepared dicinal dishes. An energetic old man followed him.
The old man was none other than Old Mr. Pei.
Old Mr. Yi placed the food on the table and greeted Min Yu before pointing to Huo Yao and telling Old Mr. Pei beside him. “This is the talented little lass I was telling you about.”
He turned to look at Huo Yao and bead. “This old geezer sells Chinese dicine. Just call him Old Mr. Pei.”
Huo Yao’s eyes landed on Old Mr. Pei. Although he sold Chinese dicine, judging from his aura, it probably was not as simple as that. She stood up to bow politely. “Hello, Old Mr. Pei. I’m Huo Yao.”
He stroked his beard and nodded kindly to Huo Yao. “Hello.”
Then he turned to look at Min Yu. “Looks like you’re recovering well.”
“Mhm. It’s all thanks to the dicine you gave ,” replied Min Yu.
Old Mr. Pei shook his head and smiled.
“Stop standing around. Ti to tlry my new dishes. They will lose their texture if they turn cold,” said Old Mr. Yi before turning to look at Huo Yao with his eyes gleaming particularly brightly.
Huo Yao did not hold back. She picked up her chopsticks and placed a piece into her mouth.
“How is it?” asked Old Mr. Yi quickly.
It was clearly apparent that he could not wait to hear her feedback.
Old Mr. Pei looked at Huo Yao in slight surprise. Old Mr. Yi rarely admired anyone. It was Old Mr. Pei’s first ti seeing him so impressed by soone so young.
Could she really be gifted in pharmacology?
Huo Yao put down the chopsticks and raised her brow. “Can I speak honestly?”
Old Mr. Yi’s lips twitched. “I hate it when people lie to .”
Huo Yao nodded seriously. “Fine. If you add 100 grams of oriental raisins and 4 grams of musk kernel powder, it will be better.”
“Oriental raisin and musk kernel, huh?” Old Mr. Yi touched his chin and went into a deep thought.
Huo Yao nodded before picking her chopsticks to eat unhurriedly.
Old Mr. Pei’s eyes narrowed slightly when he heard Huo Yao’s suggestion. After so ti, he suddenly turned to look at Huo Yao in disbelief.
