The old scholar curiously watched as Jiang Xia took out something wrapped in a handkerchief from her bosom, holding it delicately in her palm as if presenting a treasure for him to see.

The old scholar, puzzled, asked, “What is this?”

Jiang Xia, playing mysterious, didn’t answer directly but said, “Grandpa, open it yourself and see.”

Perhaps influenced by Jiang Xia’s caution, the old scholar also became careful, picking up the handkerchief with gentle and slow movements, then holding his breath as he slowly unfolded it.

Once he had completely unwrapped the handkerchief and saw what was inside, the old scholar’s expression shifted from confusion to delight.

The old scholar looked at the handful of Lingzhi spore powder in the handkerchief as if he had discovered a new world. Given that it’s hard to find Lingzhi these days, he didn’t even bother to inspect the quality of the spore powder. Recognizing it was enough to make him happy.

The old scholar licked his dry lips and asked, “Young girl, where did you get this Lingzhi spore powder from?”

Jiang Xia replied sweetly, “While my father and 1 were picking wild vegetables on the mountain, we accidentally found a small Lingzhi. I initially wanted to take it home, but my father told me that Lingzhi has a spirit and it’s not easy for it to grow, especially such a small one. So we left it in the mountain to grow.”

The old scholar nodded in agreement, “Your father is right. Everything has a spirit. Only by respecting nature can we receive its gifts.”

After listening, Jiang Xia smiled sweetly, revealing her cute little fangs teeth.

At that moment, a cold wind blew by. The old scholar quickly wrapped up the spore powder and carefully tucked it into his bosom, affectionately patting Jiang Xia on the shoulder, “Good girl, it’s cold here. Let’s go to the medicine shop.”

Leading the way, he walked with Jiang Xia toward the medicine shop.

Jiang Xia could clearly sense the old scholar’s good mood. He even poured her a cup of hot water, adding a spoonful of sugar, making it sweet to taste.

Impatiently, the old scholar asked after Jiang Xia had just taken a sip, “Girl, how much spore powder did you collect?”

Jiang Xia pointed to the spore powder in the old scholar’s bosom and said, “Only that much, I brought it all to you.”

The old scholar was somewhat disappointed. Even though this amount was quite a lot, especially in these times, he still wished for more.

His son had suggested upgrading the scar removal ointment formula using modern medicine. Although he was angry and had a big argument with his son, it was mainly because his son wanted to challenge traditional medicine with modern methods. Deep down, he was actually open to the idea of upgrading the formula.

After decades of dedication to medicine, how could he resist the opportunity to improve a formula?

Seeing the old scholar’s continued focus on the Lingzhi spore powder, Jiang Xia changed the subject, “Grandpa, why is Lingzhi spore powder necessary for the scar removal ointment?”

Jiang Xia’s eyes were bright and eager, showing genuine curiosity about the topic.

The old scholar instinctively assumed his teaching demeanor from his days at the medicine shop and began to explain in detail the uses, methods, and dosages of Lingzhi spore powder.

After he had been talking for a while, Jiang Xia considerately poured him a glass of water, saying, “Grandpa, have some water before you continue.”

After taking a sip, the old scholar immediately resumed explaining the role of Lingzhi spore powder in the scar ointment, even demonstrating how to add it to the semi-finished product. 𝗳𝐫𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Later, the old scholar applied some of the newly prepared ointment to Jiang Xia’s wrist, which had a faint scar from a cat scratch. Although it was hardly noticeable and didn’t need the ointment, Jiang Xia cooperated.

Once he finished, Jiang Xia hesitated, then asked, “Grandpa, if the scar removal ointment is so effective, why not share its formula with factories for mass production to help more people?”

Upon hearing about sharing the formula, the old scholar’s expression changed dramatically, turning from clear skies to stormy clouds in an instant..
