Peng Jiazhi’s face was ashen, and he suddenly felt a sense of relief and fear of surviving a great catastrophe.
“This pillow of yours is mainly the cause of the irregular sleeping posture, and also because of the pillow. Be careful next time. You don’t want to do that again, do you?”
Peng Jiazhi nodded with a pale face. He felt that after today, he would probably be traumatized by the word ‘pillow’!
After the shock, they no longer doubted Su Yayan’s abilities.
Su Yayan had just informed the kitchen staff to prepare an extra set of medicinal cuisine for Xu Yanjun when she looked up and saw Ye Qiliang’s distorted expression. She gasped in shock.
Su Yuxuan and Cheng Junhao, who had followed along because they were worried, had been acting as wallflowers at the side. They had not even realized that their younger sister (niece) had learned these strange abilities that they had never heard of before.
He frowned when he saw this. He darted to Su Yayan from both sides and blocked his weird grandfather, Ye Qiliang, from doing anything strange to Su Yayan.
Ye Qiliang also realized that he had lost his composure. He coughed lightly and rubbed his hands. “I don’t have any ill intentions. I’m just a little excited. There’s also something I need Teacher Su’s help with.”
“Just call me by my name.” Su Yayan still had her guard up. When she called him Teacher Su, she had a feeling that something bad would happen.
Reality proved that her sixth sense was quite accurate.
“What do you need my help with?”
“I plan to set up a new discipline in the school.”
Cheng Junhao frowned and asked, “What subject?”
“One specializes in teaching people how to identify these Chinese herbs and how to use them. They can also choose to study some Chinese medicine.
Su Yayan was stunned by his words. A bold idea popped into her head.
“Are you…”
“I would like to invite Miss Su to be this subject’s special lecturer.”
“Special lecturer?” Su Yayan was stunned. No wonder he kept calling her teacher. He was waiting for her!
“No, no, no. I can’t. I’ve never wanted to be a lecturer. Furthermore, my ability is not enough to teach others. You think too highly of me.”
However, Ye Qiliang only felt that she was being humble. “If you can’t do it, I’m afraid there’s no one else in this world who can. Before I came here, I had some doubts, but now that I’ve seen your ability with my own eyes, I know that my preconceived notions have led me to underestimate you.”
Su Yayan’s expression froze. She really did not know how to accept the old man’s compliment.
Ye Qiliang misunderstood her hesitation and said dejectedly, “Of course, I also know that this request is very presumptuous. After all, these things…” They were all lost historical treasures.
Just like the recipes in the hands of the chefs in high-end restaurants, those were the skills they relied on to survive.
The rarer something was, the more precious it was. But if he really had to publicize these things and make them become so common, how could these people use this to gain profits and guarantee their own lives?
As the saying went, cutting off one’s wealth was no different from killing one’s parents.
When he heard that Su Yayan had given the seeds to the research institute for free and opened such an affordably-priced medicinal cuisine hall, he had misunderstood and assumed that she would help.
However, he had neglected the fact that it was her own magnanimity that she was willing to take these things out. However, if he were to force her to take them out, he would be pushing his luck.
