24 Break 3 (1/2)

It was almost noon, the sun already pretty high in the sky. Granny Shen was organizing her medicines and herbs inside the store, she was weak to heat so she rarely got out at noon.

She was going through the medicine's stocks with smile, evident that she was in good mood. How couldn't she? Thanks to the effect of the green water, the herb she was growing was improved in all aspects. This leads to her income increasing by quite a lot, now she could afford a better medicine for her grandchild.

This was all thanks to Yan Xiu, nothing could describe how grateful she felt toward Yan Xiu. Her daughter and her husband wanted to thank him personally, so they were waiting for a good time to closed shop and went back to the village.

Granny Shen thought of inviting Yan Xiu to lunch and gave him some medicine or herbs to pay him back. She knew it was not enough to repay Yan Xiu but for now, this was the thing she could do for him. Granny Shen was about to went to the kitchen but the front door was knocked.

”Who is it?” (GS)

”Granny, it's me.” (YX)

”Oh, little Xiu. Come in, come in.” (GS)

Granny Shen back was facing the door so she didn't see Yan Xiu entered but she did hear the door opened. Yan Xiu was still small so his footstep was light, but there was another footstep following Yan Xiu, this one was heavy. Granny Shen frowned 'Who is it?' she wondered.

She turned around and petrified, there was a big demon beast inside her house. Yan Xiu already expected this, he calmly explained it to granny Shen.

”S-so... This is... Your contracted demon beast?” (GS)

”Yes.” (YX)

”My god...” (GS)

Granny Shen looked at Bai Yuan who was looking around curiously and sniffing her medicines and herbs. 'To think this child could tame a demon beast... He's truly not just a normal kid.' thought granny Shen.

”Then granny, where's the jade bottle? I'm gonna refill it.” (YX)

”Oh, wait a minute, I'll go get it.” (GS)

Granny Shen went to the back of the counter and came back with a big jade container. The jade container was shaped a like a vase, with wide bottom and narrow top along with a cork to seal it.

”Here is it, let's go to the garden.” (GS)

”Granny, let me carry that.” (YX)

”Don't worry, I'm not so old that I couldn't carry anything anymore.” (GS)

”Okay, Bai Yuan let's go!” (YX)

”Ho! (Coming!)” (BY)

Granny Shen expression clouded with worry when seeing Bai Yuan coming, she drew close to Yan Xiu and whispered to him.

”Little Xiu, your demon beast... It wouldn't eat my herbs, right?” (GS)

”Ahaha, Granny, don't worry. Bai Yuan wouldn't do that, he's smart. Isn't that right?” (YX)

”Uho! (Right!)” (BY)

Although she whispered, Bai Yuan sharp ears still heard what she said. Hearing Yan Xiu's guarantee, granny Shen felt relieved and lead the way to her garden.

Her garden was full of vibrant and healthy herbs, the number of herbs in her garden also increased. But the one with the most change was the Glass Lime, it's height increased to a full one meter, every part of it was full of vitality, and the fruits were deeper in color.

Seeing such a splendid garden, Yan Xiu couldn't help but exclaimed.

”Wow~ granny, you're garden is amazing! ” (YX)

”Huhu, thank you. But all of this was possible thanks to you.” (GS)

”Haha, I didn't do anything. The green water only help a little, it was all because granny's tender care.” (YX)

”I see you're tongue have become more witty and glib, did the hunter training include your tongue too?” (GS

”Hehe.” (YX)

”Little rascal. Here, the Qi recovery medicine.” (GS)

”Okay.” (YX)

Yan Xiu took the bucket and jade container, he first filled the bucket and gave it to granny Shen. Granny shen then watered the garden with it, in the meantime, Yan Xiu recovered using the medicine.

Bai Yuan was wondering around the garden while observing the herbs, he was curious about the herbs. He wondered why the old female have so much bitter smelling plants. With the medicine aid, Yan Xiu quickly restored his energy.

He then filled the jade container and sealed it. His business here was done, so it was about time he leave.
