Chapter 526 - Purple orchid soup

The two swiftly prepared meals. The dishes made with fresh herbs were very similar to ordinary green vegetables, but they have a special smell. The smell was quite good. Adding two drops of sesame oil even made it more attractive.

Bai Zhi went upstairs and helped Zhao Lan to get downstairs. She first gave her a bowl of purple orchid soup. Two light pink flowers floated on the soup, which made it fragrant and beautiful.

“What is this?” Zhao Lan asked.

Bai Zhi said: “This is a medicinal diet for nourishing and replenishing energy and blood. Eat it quickly while it’s still warm.”

Zhao Lan nodded and let everyone to sit down and eat, only to find that Zhou Awu was not there, so she asked immediately: “Where is Awu? It’s time to eat, why he’s not here?”

Hu Changlin said: “Awu took his elder brother to find Xiaofeng. I think he will come back a bit later.”

Hearing that Zhou Awu’s elder brother came, Zhao Lan put down the bowl in her hand again: “Since there is a guest at home, how can we eat first? Let’s wait and eat when everyone is here.”

Bai Zhi picked up the bowl again and stuffed it into her hand: “We can wait, but how many days did you not have a good meal? While the soup is hot, please eat it quickly.”

Zhao Lan can’t resist, so she drank the soup. The soup looked thick, but it’s very cold and slippery in the mouth. The soup was steaming, so how come it’s cold in the mouth?

“How does it taste?” Bai Zhi asked.

Zhao Lan didn’t make a sound and took another sip. The soup was fragrant. It has a special scent that could make people feel comfortable. The soup was sweet, but the sweetness tastes more special than ordinary sweets. It was not greasy.

“Is this really medicinal food?” Zhao Lan asked.

Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Of course, this is the herbs that grow in our field. I just picked it up, how is it? Is it delicious?”

Zhao Lan said with a smile: “If you eat this, your disease will be cured. I’m afraid no one in this world will be afraid of getting sick. Maybe, they will even want to get sick.”

Bai Zhi said: “This can’t cure the disease. The function of the medicinal diet is to adjust the body, not to cure the disease or save the lives of people. If you get sick, you still have to take bitter medicine.”

If you want to cure a disease, it’s not just a matter of using medicines, but also combining medicinal diet. If you combine these two, you might achieve the desired effect.

The herbs she planted were all ordinary body supplements, not precious life-saving medicines.

It can help condition the body, but it’s far from treatment.

Zhao Lan took two more sips and smiled, “If you can be cured by eating this, I’m afraid the medicine hall will be forced to close.”

While talking, a hissing sound of a horse sounded outside. Bai Zhi hurriedly went out to greet people, but she only saw Zhou Awu and Zhou Xiaofeng came down from the carriage. Zhou Gang was missing.

Seeing her came back safely, Zhou Xiaofeng was obviously a little excited. He quickly walked over: “You’re back? How are you?”

Bai Zhi nodded her head: “I’m fine.” Then, she turned her head to Zhou Awu and asked: “How about Zhou Dage?”

Zhou Awu tied the horse and sighed: “He left. After seeing Xiaofeng and saw everything was well, he left immediately. He said—” Zhou Awu stopped and looked at Hu Changlin and Zhao Sue, then lowered his voice: “He said he couldn’t rest assured with Prince Jin’s safety, so he had to go back quickly.”
