After hearing what the man said, Wen Shutang immediately understood.

Xue Ming also showed a look of sudden enlightenment on his face.

Wen Shutang stood aside and slowly explained, "Huaxiang is spicy and slightly warm in nature. It belongs to the spleen, stomach and lung meridians. It has the effect of removing dampness and relieving heat. However, it cannot be taken together with tonic herbs. Ginseng root is a tonic herb. Taking them together will indeed cause diarrhea and vomiting."

Hearing this, Xue Ming gave her an appreciative look and nodded: "This lady is right. Patchouli should not be taken together with tonic herbs. It is right for the young master to hope that the old man will get better as soon as possible, but he cannot let the old man take medicine casually."

The man scratched his head embarrassedly and sincerely apologized for his rudeness just now.

"So that's how it is. I misunderstood, old sir. I'm so sorry. I was too rash to question you without knowing the reason. I'm sorry for worrying about me too much. Please forgive me, sir."

As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Xue Ming.

Xue Ming waved his hand with a smile in his eyes: "Young Master, please get up quickly. I know that you are so anxious because you are worried about your mother's illness. Now you just need to make everything clear. There is no need to be so polite."

The man stood up and looked at Xue Ming gratefully. Then his gaze fell on Xiao Wan who was standing at the door. Thinking of his fierce words just now, a hint of embarrassment appeared in his eyes.

"I'm so sorry, little girl. I wronged you."

Xiao Wan was relieved to hear that it was not her fault that caused the old woman to vomit and have diarrhea. Looking at the man apologizing to her, Xiao Wan quickly waved her hands.

"It's okay, it's okay. As long as the old lady gets better soon, that's all that's fine."

Seeing that Xiao Wan didn't look angry at all, the man felt even more ashamed. He had just slandered the girl without any evidence, but now the girl was so magnanimous and not angry at all.

Such a comparison made the man feel even more petty, and his face turned red with shame for a moment.

"Thank you very much. Please come to my house again and check on me. I can't just lie in bed with vomiting and diarrhea all the time."

Hearing this, Xiao Wan nodded immediately: "Okay, the old lady is not able to move around easily, I will go over there later, simple diarrhea is easy to cure."

Xue Ming was very satisfied with Xiao Wan's magnanimity. He nodded repeatedly, and his eyes were full of kindness when he looked at Xiao Wan.

The man nodded and agreed quickly: "Okay, thank you, doctor. I will go home and wait for the doctor to come."

After saying that, he bowed to Xiao Wan and turned away.

When everyone saw that the misunderstanding had been explained, those who had just mocked the girl for being unsuitable to practice medicine shut up and left quietly in disappointment.

The rest of the people showed admiration and surprise to Xiao Wan.

"It turned out to be a misunderstanding. It seems that the girl did nothing wrong. It was just that the man himself did not ask in advance whether there were any incompatible medicinal materials."

"That's right, just now when I saw the girl's calm and composed attitude, I thought there must be a misunderstanding."

"Don't be so bashful. Just now you said something like this little girl is incapable. In my opinion, this little girl of ours is capable too. Look, she can treat illnesses and prescribe medicine for people at such a young age. She will definitely have a bright future."

When Xiao Wan heard what everyone said, she blushed at the praise and kept waving her hands and shaking her head.

"No, no, I just did what I was supposed to do."

The audience gradually dispersed and a few people returned to Jishidiang.

Xue Ming looked at Wen Shutang with a smile, his eyes full of admiration: "I didn't expect that Madam also knew about the knowledge of the mutual restraint of medicinal herbs."

Wen Shutang waved his hand: "I only had some exposure to it when I was a child, and I only know a little bit about it. I can't compare with you, old sir."

"Well, it's good that she understands a little bit. No wonder Wan'er has such a solid foundation. I guess Madam must have taught her a lot at home, right?"

Wen Shutang smiled and nodded: "I just teach her to identify medicinal herbs occasionally."

"Very good, very good. Wan'er is studious and able to endure hardships, and her mother is also a sensible person." Xue Ming said, stroking his beard.

Xiao Wan stood beside Xue Ming, and couldn't help but raise her head with a little pride when she heard her master praising her.

Xue Ming looked at Xiao Wan lovingly and nodded: "I am very satisfied to accept Wan'er as my disciple. The little girl is careful and hardworking, unlike Ah Fu and Ah Yi, the two brats who only know how to be lazy and play tricks every day."

Ah Fu and Ah Yi on the side immediately became unhappy after hearing this, and the two young men lowered their heads with some dissatisfaction.

Ah Fu muttered quietly, "It's obvious that Master favors Junior Sister. He allowed Junior Sister to go to the backyard to take care of the herb garden, but didn't allow me and Ah Yi to get close."

Although Ayi didn't say anything, he nodded silently, his eyes full of approval.

Xue Ming glanced at them and said, "You still have the nerve to say that? Last time I just asked you to help me loosen the soil for the herbs in the backyard, but what happened? You dug out the roots of those herbs. If Wan'er hadn't discovered it in time, my poor herbs would have died in the hands of you two brats."

There was a hint of disappointment in his tone.

After hearing this, Ah Fu seemed to remember something. He immediately shut his mouth guiltily, lowered his head and stopped talking.

Ayi paused and looked away.

Seeing the guilty looks of the two young men, Wen Shutang couldn't help but smile, and when he turned to look at Xiao Wan, his gaze became softer.

She knew that it was a right decision to send Xiao Wan to the clinic to study medicine. Judging from what happened today, Xiao Wan did not disappoint her expectations.

Be upright and honest. If you are wrong, you are wrong. If you are not wrong, you must never give in. Xiao Wan listened to her words completely.

"Master, it's getting late. I have to go and see that old woman." Xiao Wan walked forward, bent down and spoke in Xue Ming's ear.

Xue Ming nodded and said, "Well, go ahead. Go check on the old man's condition and come back to tell me in detail. After all, the old man is old and can't stand the hardship anymore. It's better to be careful."

"Yes, Wan'er, write it down." Xiao Wan nodded respectfully.

After saying goodbye to Xue Ming, several people walked out of Jishidiang.

"Mom, I have to go to the old lady's house." Xiao Wan said, holding Wen Shutang's hand.

"Okay, I know. Let's just go together. We'll wait for you here." Wen Shutang smiled and squeezed Xiao Wan's little hand.

"Yeah!" Xiao Wan laughed happily.

The family walked towards the old woman's house. When they arrived at the gate of a courtyard that looked a bit simple, Xiao Wan pointed inside and said.

"This is the old woman's home, mother, you just wait here for a while, I will be out soon."

"Okay, let's go."

Wen Shutang stood there looking at Xiao Wan's back, and suddenly felt a little emotional.
