DOOMED TO BE CANNON FODDER -1

CHAPTER -82

Naturally, staying behind required some justification. Consequently, the poor old master was hauled forth as an excuse again.

Jungkook told others that he was too worried about the old master and still felt it was better to return and take a look at the old master. The fact that the old master wasn't fond of Jungkook at all was smoothly glossed over as he made his explanations.

As for the old master's face being flushed red, it appeared that there wasn't that much of a problem in that area. The doctor diagnosed it as a case of his heart's blood becoming inflamed and issued a prescription before he took his leave.

Unexpectedly, the old master still asked Lisa for her opinion. When Lisa took a careful look and noticed his well-rounded body and the dark crimson hue to his face, she couldn't help but think of the common affliction from modern times-high blood pressure.

She wasn't a doctor and certainly couldn't issue a prescription, not to mention that this period and time didn't even have the phrase "high blood pressure". As a result, she responded, "This concubine knows a home remedy that will have some benefits for old grandfather's body. It would be best to take it daily to strengthen your body."

"Oh? Young girl, it seems that you know quite a bit." It's a pity that she's that person's concubine. How wonderful would it be if she were my granddaughter?

In the past, the old master had never thought favourably of generals, believing them to be crude and ignorant. That Jeon family's youngster had appeared to have some learning and talent, but his way of solving problems since his youth had always been crude, employing force to achieve results. To think that such a person had been arranged for the cute, little girl next to him-the old grandfather started to feel some beginnings of pity when his thoughts travelled here.

Lis didn't know any special remedies or the like, she merely wanted to decrease the old grandfather's blood pressure. Thus, she said, "Have someone grind celery into juice and drink some every day. Treat it as water. If you don't like the taste of it, adding some sugar or rock sugar is fine as well."

"Celery?" The old master frowned. He disliked this vegetable the most. But after seeing Lisa nodding her head with all her might, he chose to believe her and said, "Then let's try it out." He summoned some servants and gave them his orders.

Lisa relaxed and let out a sigh. As long as the old master could persevere, his health should improve some. Afterwards, she mentioned a few plants that would be good to place indoors. The old master had some servants record it all.

Taehyung accompanied her throughout this entire process. Previously, he'd only held a hint of affection towards Lisa, but now he'd completely transformed into a lovestruck fool.

Even though there were many women by his side, someone like her was truly too rare. What a pity that his friend would also be staying behind tonight. The both of them had been arranged to stay in the same guest room.

This fact was gnawing at him. He glanced over at his friend, who was calmly sitting on the side drinking tea. Just how does he view her?

Since the old grandfather needed to rest a bit earlier, Lisa and Jungkook were shown to the courtyard that had been arranged for them. The servants of the Song family had long since cleaned up the guest house and prepared bathwater as well.

The two separated to go take a bath. Lisa ended up coming out a little later because she was nervous. She could tell with a single look that Jungkook's hair had already been dried by the servants. He had taken up a seat on the side with a book in hand. He had helped her out a lot today, and Lis felt that she should properly express her thanks.
