If he didn't raise such a traitor, the jade wouldn't be in his hands.
Thinking of the Jade Kylin that several aristocratic families in Bei 'an City had fought over, and even the Jin family, who claimed to be the number one aristocratic family, couldn't get their hands on it in such a short time, Medicine Master He felt a burst of pride in his heart.
However, on the surface, he pretended to be displeased.
"What do you want?"
"I want you to provide me with pills continuously." Xi Mengdie's eyes flashed with sharpness, "Of course, my request won't be too much. One pill a month … I'll decide what kind of pills you want. Of course, I'll also choose pills that are within your ability."
Doctor He frowned and was a bit unhappy. However, he understood that her request wouldn't be too much, but —
"Okay, but five years. This time limit is only five years."
This time, it was Xi Mengdie's turn to frown unhappily. Five years … Is it worth it?
"If this is the only condition you have, I can give you another year's time. But if you have anything else … then don't even think about it." He didn't believe that he would use his family heirloom jade just for a pill.
Wouldn't those medicinal pills be able to be auctioned off at the auction house?
Moreover, this Xi Mengdie was known as the most talented girl in Bei 'an City. The Xi family had to spend a lot of money on her, so naturally, pills were unavoidable.
Moreover, from what she asked just now, he guessed that this girl's visit … probably had something to do with the City Lord.
"Doctor He is really straightforward. That's right, other than the pills, I do have other conditions." Xi Mengdie didn't waste any more time, "Doctor He also knows that I'm the future daughter-in-law of the Jin family. My future husband's family hopes to invite Doctor He over as a guest. As the daughter-in-law, of course, I'll do my best to fulfill this wish of the elderly."
These words were said in a dignified manner.
"Furthermore, our Xi family has some problems as well. We also want Doctor He to come over and diagnose them. Especially my mother. I don't know why, but she suddenly lost her mind … I think Doctor He's acupuncture is very magical. You should be able to help my mother recover."
Hearing her words, Doctor He frowned. Seeing that he was unhappy, she quickly added, "Doctor He, I stole this jade. The Xi family doesn't know about it. You should know … how determined I am to do this. Please don't reject my request."
"Other than these two, you also promised the City Lord to cure his mother's illness." Doctor He glanced at Xi Mengdie's's's's's eyes.
Her eyebrows twitched slightly and surprise flashed across her eyes. However, she quickly smiled again.
"Doctor He is indeed Doctor He. That's right, it's because Doctor He rejected the City Lord that the City Lord has his eyes on me. Then, Doctor He, what do you think? If it weren't for the City Lord, I wouldn't have taken out such a valuable item. No matter what, I'm the one who lost out … "
Apothecary He touched the jade piece through his sleeve. His eyebrows furrowed slightly as if he was troubled. After a while, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Alright, I agree to all of your conditions."
