If Dong Xu or Fifth Uncle really advanced as scholars thanks to this recipe, their family could indeed reao the benefits.

Why?

What right did Dong Nuan have to take out something that his family could benefit from and give it away?

Dong Nuan had already guessed Old Master Dong’s thoughts and plans, so she specially mentioned this matter when the patriarch passed by.

Dong Nuan deliberately exaggerated the scene in order to attract the attention of the clan leader. When he heard this, whether he believed it or not, he was intrigued.

Although there were many people in the Dong clan, they were not very famous. Currently, the entire clan did not even have a single scholar who was outstanding. Relatively speaking, people like Dong Xu could be considered as successful within the clan.

They wee pitiful compared to the Liao clan, which at least two Elementary Scholars. The Dong clan, who lived in the same village, was really disappointing.

The longer this stayed the case, the more the Clan Leader cared.

Even if he heard about the slightest opportunity, he would not let it go.

Therefore, as long as Dong Nuan’s words could intrigue and make him stop, subsequent matters were basically settled.

Dong Nuan would rather the entire family reap benefits than live in the shadows of Dong Xu or Fifth Uncle and feel grateful to them. Dong Nuan felt that it was not good for so few people to have so much power. The whole family should share the power!

Anyway, no matter what, she would only benefit from the glory of the clan. At that time, Dong Nuan would be valued by the clan leader, and her status in the family would only rise in the future.

Of course, it was best not to let Old Master Dong see through her thoughts, lest he felt offended.

At this moment, Dong Nuan still had a look of reminiscence on her face about those immortals. “I thought that the things used by immortals would definitely be good. If I read the recipe and memorized it, would I be able to make it when I come back? Even if I can’t make it myself, I still have my father and grandfather to ask.”

Old Master Dong was still wondering if Dong Nuan had said this on purpose in front of the clan leader, but looking at Dong Nuan’s longing expression, he could not tell for a moment.

Perhaps the young lady suddenly thought of this and simply wanted to talk about it?

Old Master Dong could not make a decision. Dong Nuan still had to continue. “I forgot about this, but I dreamed about it last night. It’s really worrying. I wonder if the immortals did it on purpose.”

“What are you talking about? This is the blessing of an immortal. Many people can’t get such a thing even if they beg for it. Nuan, tell me quickly. What does that prescription say?” The chief glanced at Old Master Dong and could not be bothered with his thoughts. His tone was slightly anxious.

Initially, Old Master Dong was still thinking that if the Clan Leader knew about this, the recipe would definitely be lost. He would definitely prioritize the interests of the clan.

Since that was the case, he had to seek some benefits from the clan for his small family. After all, the person who offered the recipe was Dong Nuan, their family’s girl!

In the end, before he could think of what he wanted, he heard the patriarch speak.

He was also curious about this, so he temporarily put aside his messy thoughts and looked at Dong Nuan with an interested expression.

Dong Nuan did not feel any pressure under the gazes of the two of them. She just tilted her head and smacked her lips twice. She seemed to be nostalgic, but she also seemed a little helpless. “I looked at that prescription again and again. I wished I could stick the prescription to my eyeballs, but later on, I realized that.. Grandpa Chief, I can’t read! That recipe showed itself to me, but I couldn’t understand it!”

The clan leader, “..”

Old Master Dong was speechless.

The two of them were speechless for a moment. Behind the patriarch was his grandson, Dong Zhi.

He was engrossed in the conversation just now. After all, who wouldn’t be engrossed in the matters of immortals?

Just as he was getting into the conversation, Dong Nuan said that she could not read. She did know what the recipe said. He was speechless for a moment.

Dong Zhi was not very old this year. He was just over seventeen and could not hide anything in his heart. Seeing that his grandfather was not saying anything, he couldn’t help but ask anxiously, “Then take the recipe out!”

In response, Dong Nuan looked at Dong Zhi in surprise and said without thinking, “I wanted to, but when I woke up, I realized that it was just a dream. I didn’t takek anything out. I remember that I held the recipe tightly in my fist in my dream.”

Everyone was speechless.

After another round of speechlessness, the Clan Leader pondered for a long time with a dark expression before asking softly, “Lil Nuan, can you describe to Grandpa Clan Leader what those immortals are like?”

This meant that he still had doubts and did not dare to believe it yet.

Dong Nuan was not afraid to answer. After all, she was a little immortal in the past. Even if she was a low-level immortal, she knew a lot about them.

It was not a big feat for Dong Nuan to describe the scenes she had apparently experienced.

Dong Nuan explained to the extent that she even gave the names of some fairies and their cultivation techniques. Finally, the clan leader did not doubt anything. His expression became more serious.

Old Master Dong was the same. At this moment, he already believed that Dong Nuan was not lying.

In their opinion, Dong Nuan was just a little girl in her teens. The furthest she had gone out was to the town, so she had limited experience. If she has not seen it with her own eyes, she probably would not be able to explain it in such detail.

“Er Zhuang, bring Lil Nuan and come with me first.” After thinking for a while, the clan leader directly gestured for Old Master Dong to bring Dong Nuan home with him.

If Dong Nuan was right and there really was a recipe used by immortals, then..

Their Dong clan was going to make a name for themselves.

Whether it was using this to earn money for the clan or exchanging it for something else, it was a valuable transaction. No matter what, they would not lose out!

However, the problem that needed to be resolved the most now was..

Dong Nuan couldn’t read!

This was f*cked up!

This was like guarding a golden egg nest only to discover that one did not know how to pick up eggs. Would they not be angry?

At the last moment, the eggs were right in front of her, but she realized that she did not know how to take them.

The more the chief thought about it, the angrier he became. Halfway through, he could not help but sigh. “Er Zhuang, you’re too much. There are two scholars in the family. You should enlighten the children in the family too. Don’t let them think that they’re stupid. In the future, Fifth Brother and Brother Xu will be successful. In the end, when they’re discovered, the children in the family will be left behind. How can that be good will that be?”

What could Old Master Dong say now?

Other than taking the scolding obediently and cursing in his heart, he could do nothing.

Talking back to the clan leader?

Did he want to be roasted and eaten by his clan relatives?

“Yes, yes, yes. I didn’t think it through. I’ll get Fifth Uncle to teach Lil Nuan and the others how to read.” Old Master Dong smiled apologetically and repeatedly apologized.

Regarding this, the clan leader nodded solemnly and said, “Indeed, that should have already been the case. However, Fifth Brother and Brother Xu are both studying and will be participating next year. It won’t be good to delay them.”

At this point, the chief stopped talking. His brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
