Chapter 154: Chapter 27

Yoju looked straight at Kanghyok.

She was such a beauty, yet because she was Changkwon's daughter, she looked a lot like him.

When she looked at him, Kanghyok felt like she was staring at him with sharp eyes.

“Don't stare at me like that!”

“Master, you came to my room several times, right?”

“Hmm, yes.”

“Then, you must have noticed my drawings, too.”

“Aha.”

“Though I feel it's awkward to ask you this, but how do you feel about my drawings?”

“Not bad.”

In fact, her drawings were excellent. She was very good at drawing miniatures, in particular.

“I would love to draw the way you're treating patients.”

“Drawings? Hmm…” Resting his chin on hand, he looked around her room.

There were pictures hung on all sides of the wall.

‘She wants to draw me treating patients? Good idea.'

How long should he see patients and treat them by himself?

He felt he needed to raise disciples and have them do this in his place.

‘Let me focus on difficult patients only.'

So, he sometimes had Dolsok treat a patient with simple pus. And Dolsok did it well as instructed.

“Yes, master. I've drawn some pictures of the wound on my foot.”

Then Yoju presented a piece of paper to him.

As she got better, she obviously resumed drawing.

It showed a very detailed description of her sole.

‘Hmm. She grasped its fine features very well.'

Though the drawing was in black and white, it looked very good.

“Hmm… Your father won't come here for the time being, right?”

That meant less risk for him.

“Sure, you can come on the days when I call you, not everyday.”

“Thanks.”

Yoju gently bowed to him to express thanks.

“Great. Let's go out as I have nothing to do here, Yoni.”

“Yes, master.”

Both of them quickly went out of the room.

Standing nervously outside, Dolsok greeted him, “Master, it looks like we might not enjoy delicious chicken soup.”

“We can go and enjoy it now. What the heck makes you complain so much?”

In fact, Dolsok had half the hens Kanghyok received from patients for his treatment.

Besides, Dolsok had free access to slices of dried meat and seafood.

As Kanghyok didn't balk, he could enjoy such food every day.

“By the way, Makbong, when you stop by my examination room, just take some food with you. Enjoy it with the members of your acrobatic team.”

“Thanks so much. You're too generous!”

“Don't worry. n.o.body can take it if the food we saved too much spoils. So, just feel free to take it.”

“Thanks, master. We're beholden to you all the time.”

“You're welcome. Yoni needs to eat some delicious food, too.”

Hearing that, Yoni raised her head to appreciate his consideration.

“Okay, guys. Let's break up today.”

“Yes, master. Goodbye.”

Kanghyok and Dolsok quickly headed back home.

In particular, Dolsok was impatient. “Master, let's walk a little faster.”

“Sure, sure.” But Kanghyok took a leisurely walk as he had no particular appet.i.te for chicken soup.

‘I wish I could enjoy fried chicken instead.'

As the chicken must have been seasoned, all they had to do was just fry it.

“Dolsok.”

“Yes.”

“Do we have some edible oil at home?”

“Edible oil? Yeah, the mayor gave us some oil last time.”

“Great. Let's fry one chicken.”

“Fry?” Dolsok asked with a curious look.

He knew they enjoyed roasted chicken, but not a fried one.

“Yup, I mean, fry it.”

“I've never done that, master.”

“Let me do it.”

“No, no, master. Your mother will give you a good scolding.”

“Dang it!”

With a sullen expression, Kanghyok came home.

Dolsok felt sad as he couldn't meet his master's demands.

Suddenly, he changed his mind and said, “Master, let me fry a chicken.”
