Zhu Yuanyuan was very confident in her judgment and did not think she would lose. Thinking of her partner dancing in a flowery dress, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

As for Bai Shi, he felt that winning or losing was not important. Even if he lost, it would be fine to wear a flowery dress and dance at home. If he won, it would be even better. He would wake up with a smile in his dream. He immediately decided, "It's settled."

The next day, Zhu Yuanyuan finished her practice early in the morning and went to wash up. She also took some breakfast from the space. The two of them had a meal together and then pushed the two kids to the Great Witch's house.

Hu Yin had just gotten up and hadn't washed his face yet. There were still a few eye boogers hanging from the corners of his eyes. His complexion was a little dull, and he looked unkempt, making him look, well, a little ugly.

"What are you doing here so early?" he asked confusedly.

Of course Zhu Yuanyuan couldn't tell anyone about the bet, so she just smiled and raised the basin in her hand, "I got up early today, so I brought some stewed meat to Master for breakfast."

"Oh," Hu Yin said with a frown, not having much appetite, "Since you are here, just sit here for a while, light up the fire pit, and wait for the witch to arrive for today's work before leaving."

"Okay, I'm fine at home. I'm here to help Master watch the door," Zhu Yuanyuan carefully probed, "Master, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"

Hu Yin wanted to save face, so she was too embarrassed to say that she had suffered in the toilet. She shook her head coldly and denied it, "No, I just slept late last night."

"Then Master, go and rest for a while," Zhu Yuanyuan showed great love for her master and disciple. She looked at the stewed meat and changed her words, "You should wash up and eat first, otherwise you won't be able to sleep well if you're hungry."

"I'm not hungry yet," Hu Yin had no intention of eating, fearing that if he ate too much he would have to go to the toilet and suffer. However, his stomach growled in response, and his usual cold face could no longer be maintained.

Zhu Yuanyuan and Bai Shi looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, pretending they heard nothing.

After the embarrassment, Hu Yin simply stopped pretending, "I ate too much chili yesterday, and my stomach is not feeling well. I don't want to eat meat for breakfast because I'm afraid it will be hard to digest."

He simply ignored the pain in a certain hidden part of his body for fear of losing face in front of his disciples.

"Then I'll go cook some corn porridge for Master," Zhu Yuanyuan said anxiously, "and get some medicine to boil. You can take the medicine after you have eaten and rested."

Hu Yin hurriedly stopped him, "I'll get the medicine myself and let Ah Shi make it for me. You just go and make the porridge."

You can't take medicine carelessly, and you can't let your little apprentice make the medicine, lest he see through the properties of the medicine and know his true condition.

Zhu Yuanyuan, "Okay~"

She winked at the man next to her, meaning 'something fishy'.

Bai Shi pretended not to see it and followed the witch diligently, "Master, go get the medicine first. I'll go get you some water to wash your face."

Hu Yin was very pleased, "Okay."

The apprentice has a lot of small flaws, but he has a good vision and found a good companion.

He walked slowly to the pharmacy to get the medicine, and then walked slowly back. Coincidentally, Bai Shi had also prepared the water for washing his face and placed it on the wooden rack beside the fire pit.

"Master, just give me the medicine," Bai Shi strode forward, took the medicine bag with one hand and helped the person with the other.

"No need for help," Hu Yin moved aside stubbornly, still saying, "My stomach still hurts a little, it's not serious, I can walk by myself."

Bai Shi could only step back two steps and stand aside, hoping that he would be able to support the person quickly if any unexpected situation occurred.

After Hu Yin finished washing her face, Bai Shi temporarily put down the medicine bag, quickly took away the water for washing her face, poured out the water, and then came back to get the medicine bag to prepare to boil the medicine.

"Well," Hu Yin coughed lightly, "go to the kitchen that specializes in boiling medicine and boil it. Don't go to the kitchen that cooks rice, so that the smell won't affect the taste of the medicine. Also, keep an eye on the fire, and don't let the medicine run around before it's boiled. Leave the two kids in the main room and I'll keep an eye on them."

Bai Shi nodded, "Got it."

Cornmeal porridge is very simple to make. Zhu Yuanyuan quickly made it and brought it to the main hall. To make it easier for the master to eat, she moved the dining table directly to the fire pit. "Meat is difficult to digest, so I just added a little sugar. Eat it while it's hot."

"Hmm," Hu Yin dragged the basin, which was bigger than his head, in front of him, scooped some with a wooden spoon and tasted it, his eyes suddenly lit up, "It's delicious, better than before."

"If it tastes good, eat more," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a smile, "If it's not enough, I'll make more."

Betting aside, Master still has to take good care of him. Corn porridge is easier to digest, and after taking the medicine, he should be able to drink meat soup for lunch.

Of course, chili peppers cannot be added.

Hu Yin had the same idea and pointed at the pot of stew that was taking up space and said, "Take it back to your house."

"No need," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a smile, "Just save it for me to eat at noon."

Hu Yin's face darkened when he heard this. "No, give it to Ah Shi. If you want to eat it, go back and eat it."

The master and his apprentice were eating at the same table. The apprentice was eating delicious food, but the master could only drink meat soup and porridge. How could he accept this?

There cannot be two kinds of food on the same table, absolutely not!

Zhu Yuanyuan reacted quickly and changed her words, "Okay, I'll let Brother Shi take it away when he leaves."

She was secretly happy in her heart, as she won the bet.

While Hu Yin was eating porridge, the witch on duty walked in and was surprised to see Zhu Yuanyuan and Bai Shi with their two children. "Yuanyuan came earlier than me today?"

"Morning, Uncle Yuan," Zhu Yuanyuan said with a smile, "You got up early and came earlier. There is not much work in the snow season, and I want Master to have a good rest for a few days. However, if I knew it was you, I would have stayed at home and lay down."

That’s right, the person on duty today is her old partner Tu Yuan. They have a good relationship and he doesn’t have to be too reserved when talking to her.

"It wasn't me," Tu Yuan was also helpless. "The witch on duty today just came to my house to ask for help. He said he caught a cold and had a fever and couldn't go out to get exposed to the wind. It just so happened that I lived in the same row with him."

If possible, he really wanted to stay in bed and never go out, but his companions came to him and asked for help, and it would be a bit cruel to refuse them with legitimate reasons, so he had to agree.

"I was just saying that," Zhu Yuanyuan suddenly realized, "It's still a few days before your turn, why did you suddenly come here? And you're a little late."

In fact, it was not just a little late, but very late. It was just that Dawu was not feeling well and had just finished breakfast, so he did not have the energy to pursue such a small matter as being late.

Tu Yuan sighed with a bitter face, "I can't help it. The one on duty is also an orc of the same tribe. I rushed here after I agreed. I didn't even have time to eat breakfast."

He held his stomach and looked at the stew pot, "Is this the Great Witch's breakfast? Why haven't you eaten it yet?"

"No," Hu Yin replied coldly, "Yuanyuan sent it. I want to eat corn paste this morning instead of stewed meat."

Tu Yuan secretly thought that it was impossible. The Great Witch was a meat lover, so how could he not eat the delicious stewed meat but instead hold a bowl of porridge? There must be something wrong.

But he was just a witch helping with the work, and even though he had known her for a long time, it was not appropriate for him to ask too many questions, so he smiled and said, "It just so happens that I haven't eaten either, so give it to me."

Hu Yin clenched the spoon in his hand. Should he refuse or agree?

A pot of stewed meat was nothing. What was more frustrating was that others could eat it but he couldn't. After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally agreed, "You take it to the kitchen and eat it."

Out of sight is pure.
