Chapter 490: A word of concern can warm her for a whole day! (Please subscribe)

The furnishings in the house were simple but tidy.

In the main hall, there was a pear wood square table, a few landscape paintings hanging on the wall, and a half-person-high medicine cabinet in the corner, emitting a faint fragrance.

"Young Master, please sit. This is wild mountain tea picked by this woman herself; although it cannot compare to precious varieties, it also has a unique flavor." Tang Mother took out the tea set, and a pot of clear tea was already brewed between her nimble hands.

Li Chen took the teacup, his fingertips inadvertently touching Tang Mother's fingers.

That touch was warm and moist like jade, making him look twice: "Madam has good craftsmanship; this tea soup is clear and the aroma is long-lasting; you must have grasped the time of picking very accurately."

"Young Master understands tea? Indeed, it must be picked when the dew is not dry at the Mao hour, so the leaves are the most tender..." A flash of surprise crossed Tang Mother's eyes, and then she pursed her lips and smiled.

A beauty's smile was indeed refreshing.

Dai Xiaoyao, this wingman, saw the two chatting happily and rolled his eyes: "Godmother, Young Master Li also has quite a bit of research on herbs! Last time he even pointed out a few rare spiritual herbs for me."

"Oh? Young Master also understands pharmacology?" Tang Mother became interested, leaning forward unconsciously, the collar of her chest slightly opening a tempting seam.

Li Chen smiled indifferently: "I know a little bit. Looking at these Seven-Star Grasses planted in your courtyard, the arrangement matches the Big Dipper; they must be used to refine 'Heart-Clearing Pills'?"

Tang Mother's body shook, and the teapot in her hand almost fell: "How did Young Master know? This... this is my family's secret recipe."

Li Chen took a sip of tea, his gaze falling on the medicine cabinet, and said: "Guessed. Seven-Star Grass is cold in nature and needs to be neutralized with medicinal materials like cinnabar and poria. Looking at the medicinal materials placed in the third grid of your medicine cabinet, they are exactly these few. As for the more than ten herbs behind, every alchemist's method is different, and I think you should be following..."

Here Li Chen didn't lie; a part was guessed, and another part, that wasn't guessed.

The May Tian Ce Dynasty had collected various pill recipes; even if some families thought they were secrets, they had actually been thoroughly studied.

Although Li Chen didn't like alchemy, he still had some research on these things.

After all, he didn't have a system before, so he had to do it himself?

He had already practiced to the Sage Realm himself, so he naturally knew these.

By the way, Li Chen didn't like alchemy, but that didn't mean his ability to refine pills wasn't strong; this was talent.

Tang Mother looked in the direction of his gaze, her red lips slightly open, too surprised to speak.

The order of the medicinal materials on the medicine cabinet was exactly the steps she used to dispense medicine!

"Young Master is truly a god! This recipe for Heart-Clearing Pills, even Shan'er doesn't fully know." Tang Mother praised sincerely, admiration shining in her eyes.

Dai Xiaoyao saw the time was ripe and suddenly patted his forehead: "Oops! Almost forgot to go to the village chief's house to get something! Godmother, you keep Young Master Li company first; I'll be back soon!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for a response and slipped away.

He must have seen Li Chen and Tang Mother chatting, so he created an opportunity for them to be alone.

This guy could be considered a pretty good wingman.

The room was left with only the two of them.

Tang Mother tidied her clothes awkwardly, but didn't know this action instead made the curves of her chest even more prominent.

She peeked at Li Chen and found that he was concentrating on tasting tea and wasn't staring at her, which made her relax slightly.

"Young Master Li has such insight at a young age; it is truly admirable. May I ask where Young Master works in May Tian Ce?" Tang Mother took the initiative to break the silence.

Thinking of her son having businesses in the Imperial Capital of May Tian Ce, she asked this.

Li Chen put down the teacup and smiled: "Just doing some small business. Silk and tea from the south, medicinal herbs and minerals from the north; as long as there is profit, I will dabble in one or two."

"Young Master is humble. Being able to call the Star Fall King brothers, how can you be an ordinary merchant?" Tang Mother covered her mouth and smiled, faint fine lines appearing at the corners of her eyes, but adding more charm.

This sentence indeed raised Dai Xiaoyao; Dai Xiaoyao didn't dare to call Li Chen brothers.

He only had the qualifications to kneel and lick Li Chen after becoming King; if it were his previous identity, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to see Li Chen.

"Isn't Madam also hiding her true self? This Qinglin Village looks ordinary, but it is full of arrays. If I'm not mistaken, Madam should be from a famous family?" Li Chen's gaze swept over several decorations in the room that looked ordinary but hid spiritual energy.

Tang Mother's expression stiffened, then she smiled bitterly: "Young Master has sharp eyes, but some past events are better left unmentioned." ===== CHAPTER 491 =====
