Traveling into the era: I messed with Dr. Xie and got turned on

Chapter 79 Afraid that she would discover his secret

"Manman, this is for you." When Tang Man walked into the main hall, Xie Yan took out a stack of money from his pocket and handed it to Tang Man. "This is the consultation fee given by Secretary Liu. The total is 430 yuan."

Tang Man took the money and asked with a smile, "Is Secretary Liu's illness cured?"

"Yes!" Xie Yan nodded. "It's completely healed. I believe it won't be long before Secretary Liu will send good news."

"That's good. This way, you don't have to rush to the commune before dawn every day."

"Hmm!" Xie Yan nodded, then asked, "How did you guess that they came here for the Jade Dew Cream?"

"Isn't that obvious? Sister He's skin is moist and wrinkle-free, but she deliberately said that her face is so dry that it's peeling and has wrinkles. Obviously, she wants to use this as an excuse to get you to recommend Yulu Cream to her."

“I didn’t look closely.” Xie Yan thought of the way the other party had looked at him before, and a chill ran down his spine. “If there are any female patients like this coming to our house in the future, you will go and receive them.”

"Puchi! I just told me that I wanted to tease you just because you look good." Tang Man smiled and shook her head, turned and walked towards the room, intending to put the money into the jar first.

When she put the money away and returned to the main hall, some elderly people from the village had already come to see Xie Yan for medical treatment. Tang Man also picked up the book and sat down to read.

The sun was setting in the west. Tang Man raised her wrist to check the time. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. She put down her book, walked into the kitchen, and went out with a bundle of wood. She skillfully stacked the wood in the yard, ignited the wood with corn husks, and then put a marinated leg of lamb on the fire and roasted it slowly, turning it over from time to time to ensure that each side was evenly heated.

As time goes by, the mutton begins to sizzle and emits an enticing aroma. The rich meaty aroma fills the air, making people salivate.

"It smells so good." Xie Yan was reading a book in the house. He came out when he smelled the aroma. Seeing Tang Man turning the mutton skillfully, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

Tang Man really can’t cook, but she is obviously very skilled at grilling meat.

Of course, he was just suspicious and would not ask her, no matter whether she really didn't know how to cook or she deliberately said she didn't know how to cook because she didn't want to. As long as she didn't want to cook, he would not force her to cook.

"Brother Yan, go get me a basin."

Tang Man gave instructions, brushed some oil on the mutton, grabbed the barbecue seasoning and chopped green onions that had been poured into the bowl in advance and sprinkled some on the mutton, then turned it over and repeated the previous actions, then continued to turn it over for a while, sprinkled some more chopped green onions, and asked Xie Yan to help put the mutton in the enamel basin.

As soon as Xie Yan brought the mutton into the main room and put it on the table, Tang Man couldn't wait to take the dagger and skillfully cut off a piece of tender and juicy mutton, put it in his mouth, chewed slowly, with a satisfied expression on his face.

"Hmm! It's roasted just right, not too dry and not too overcooked." She praised softly, half-squinting her eyes with a look of enjoyment, her eyes revealing satisfaction and enjoyment, as if she was tasting the most delicious delicacy in the world.

She cut off another piece and put it to Xie Yan's mouth, "Brother Yan, try it."

This was not the first time that Xie Yan was fed by Tang Man, and he was not as reluctant as he was the first time. He opened his mouth and took Tang Man's finger into his mouth, accidentally licking her finger with his tongue.

As if she had been scalded, Tang Man felt that the place where her fingers had been licked was terribly hot. She quickly withdrew her hand, lowered her head, picked up the mutton with chopsticks, cut some more mutton, put it in her and Xie Yan's bowls respectively, sat down and started eating the meat.

"Burp!" Tang Man burped, slumped down on the stool, and rubbed his stomach without any image. "No, I can't eat anymore. The rest is yours."

Xie Yan also put down his chopsticks. The barbecue Tang Man made was so delicious that he couldn't help but eat a little more. He was a little full now. "Save it for tomorrow night?"

Tang Man nodded and said, "By the way, I have some meat left. I will bring it to make soup for Grandpa Zhang and the others tomorrow."

"I will get up early tomorrow morning to stew the mutton. Mutton takes a long time to stew. I will stew it again tomorrow. It will take until the afternoon before we can eat it."

The two old men were extremely stubborn. If the mutton was stewed, they would definitely keep them there and would not let them go until they had eaten the mutton.

Tang Man obviously knew this would happen, and nodded with a smile.

Zhou Yonglin brought Zhou Xiaoshun into the clinic. As soon as they entered the room, they smelled the fragrance wafting from the house. Zhou Xiaoshun excitedly ran into the main room and said, "Uncle Xie, Auntie, what did you eat today? It smells so good."

Zhou Xiaoshun had become familiar with Xie Yan and his wife a long time ago. Sometimes he would come and see them still eating. Even if they had finished eating, he would join them in eating some. The food cooked by their teacher Xie was better than that cooked by his mother.

"Roasted lamb, if you want to eat it, go get your own bowl and chopsticks." Tang Man replied with a smile, and then hurriedly added, "Remember to get a set for your uncle as well."

"I smelled this smell when I was at home." Zhou Yonglin walked to the table and sat down. He picked up a dagger, cut a piece of mutton, and put it in his mouth. "Teacher Xie, how come your cooking skills are better than those of the chefs in state-owned restaurants?"

Zhou Yonglin walked to the table and sat down. He waited for Zhou Xiaoshun to bring the bowl and chopsticks over. He first picked up a piece of meat and put it into Zhou Xiaoshun's bowl, then picked up a piece for himself and put it in his mouth to chew carefully.

"Teacher Xie, how can your cooking skills be so good? This roasted lamb is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the cooking time is just right. It's so delicious!"

Xie Yan smiled and explained, "The mutton was roasted by my family."

Zhou Yonglin gave Tang Man a thumbs up and said, "Master's wife is really amazing."

Tang Man stood up with the help of the table, "No, I have to go for a walk to help digest the food."

"After eating, wash the dishes and start writing the essay you wrote yesterday." Xie Yan said this and followed him out. Although the people in Xiaowan Village were very friendly, it was now night and Xie Yan was still worried about Tang Man going out alone.

At this time, most of the villagers were still eating, and it was very quiet outside. Apart from the footsteps and breathing of the two people, the only sound was the crisp chirping of insects.

The two of them walked side by side, and because they were close to each other, the warm little hand would brush against the back of his hand from time to time. Every time this moment happened, his heart couldn't help but ripple, his heartbeat would accelerate, and he would have the urge to reach out and grab that little hand, but because of his timidity he had to suppress the urge in his heart.

Although he had held that hand before, it was always in front of outsiders. He didn't dare to hold that hand in private because he was afraid that she would discover his secret.

His heart was in turmoil because of Tang Man. He unknowingly fell in love with the little girl who was sometimes cute and well-behaved, sometimes fierce, sometimes quirky, and always greedy. After discovering his own thoughts, he became a little timid. No matter what he did, he would think first whether she would notice anything.

He didn't dare let Tang Man know his feelings for her. He was afraid that he would scare her. He was also afraid that she would deliberately avoid him after knowing it and would feel uncomfortable when facing him.
