[The Best Thing]

[Agarwood]
[Episode 10]
[Pungent, bitter, mild]
[Helps breathe, reduces pain, stops vomiting, relieves cough]

Come and take a look.

This is the greenhouse,

ahead of which is the farm.

When we were at college,

we usually came here to do research.

The air here is so fresh.

This greenhouse

is where we introduce,

protect and cultivate endangered medicinal plants.

For example, dendrobium candidum like this

brings great benefits to the stomach and cardiovascular system.

It also helps to suppress tumor growth.

But in the past,

wild dendrobium candidum was scarce

and very precious.

It would be a shame

if patients couldn't have access

to such a good medicinal material.

With the nowadays improved greenhouse technology,

high-quality dendrobium candidum can be put into mass production.

It is a great ingredient for tea or cooking in daily life.

Do we get to use it this time?

Sure.

It is a nice choice to make tea

with dendrobium candidum.

Look how tall it has grown.

Do you remember what this is?

The leaves have withered.

The leaves....

With jagged edges.

Five-flavor fruit?

Dry these leaves

in the sun,

and they can be used as a traditional Chinese herbal medicine.

Did you plant all of this?

Can I pluck some?

Yes.

It wasn't that hard.

Xiangya, Senior Lin,

have a taste of this.

It's delicious.

It tastes sweet and sour.

What is this?

Five-flavor fruit.

We don't need to wash it first?

It's okay.

Let them try it.

It looks dainty.

Isn't it?

Shen Xifan!

You tricked us,

didn't you?

Xifan!

You tricked us!

Whoa!

Come back here!

Come on, try it.

Give it a try.

We're good.

Give it a try!

Come on!

Take a bite.

No, no.

Just eat it! Come on.

Come on!

You eat it.

[Hang City Traditional Chinese Medicine Herbal Farm]

Shen Xifan, good for you.

You took traditional Chinese medicine twice,

and now you've learned to prank me with it.

I'll take that as a compliment.

It tastes good.

What is it?

It consists of five-flavor fruit.

We added some honey to it,

so it tastes better.

Is it a kind of drink that doctors like you usually fix for yourselves?

Not really.

I prefer coke.

You're pretty funny, handsome.

How come I never noticed it?

Li Jie, where is Dr. He?

Why don't you go find him?

I'll go find Dr. He.

These medicinal herbs are products of the plantation.

I've brought those that are commonly used for medicinal cuisine

and aromatherapy.

TCM is particular about the specific health-keeping tactics in each season,

so we would choose different regimens

according to seasonal changes

and the 24 solar terms.

Now, our goal here

is to nourish kidneys and increase moisture in the human body.

The recipes tend to be mild.

That being said,

considering the elderly's health conditions,

I suggest you differentiate the effects

and choose appropriate recipes

for different individuals.

How do we do that?

The medicinal cuisine here has five effects.

It is good for sleep,

the circulation of energy and blood, and kidneys.

It also helps to clear fat, lower blood pressure and reduce dryness.

It smells amazing.

Here are the recipes.

Pass them around and read them.

Okay.

Here you are.

You can also create new recipes on your own.

We will provide you with proper information

and suggestions about different herbs.

Thank you for all the hard work.

You're welcome.

There is boiled water outside.

If you're interested,

make some tea and have a taste.

Okay.

Can we make tea with these?

Yeah, sure.

These are dried lily bulbs.

They reinforce lungs, relieve cough

and soothe nerves.

Then they're a good ingredient for medicinal cuisine in autumn.

I've seen porridge with lily bulbs and lotus seeds being sold in supermarkets.

This combination is a safe and convenient option, right?

It being commonly seen

means it is not special at all.

We're not going for that option now.

Many classic recipes involve lily bulbs.

If we don't use lily bulbs,

our workload might get too heavy.

Cutie pie,

why don't we befriend each other on Wechat?

Maybe you can answer my questions if I have any.

Sure.

Let me scan your code.

Done.

What are you doing here alone?

They're all studying medicinal cuisine.

I'd like to find out what I can use for aromatherapy.

We can save some time in this way.

Which would you like to make, incense or sachets?

Sachets.

It's more convenient when I send them to the elderly.

They can hang the sachets at the bedside.

What's your recommendation?

All of these are incense ingredients.

Patchouli.

Agarwood.

Nutmeg.

Sandalwood.

Clove.

And that is...

Cinnamon.

I know it's often used to make mulled wine.

That is actually cassia.

Cassia?

What's the difference between cassia and cinnamon?

Cinnamon seems to be more often used abroad.

It's not about that.

Cinnamon derives from the bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree,

whereas cassia

is sourced from the bark of the Cinnamomum cassia tree.

Cassia is spicier

while cinnamon is lighter and softer.

So, cassia is often used for cooking,

and cinnamon for aromatherapy.

It's no wonder that many perfumes contain cinnamon.

Let's go somewhere else.

Where to?

A place with more materials for aromatherapy.

Let's go.

Come on.

Here it is.

This is

an agarwood tree.

The resin formed

and cut off from these places

is what we call agarwood.

Sniff it.

It does smell nice.

It gives out...

a very familiar scent.

Familiar?

Like the perfume you wear?

No.

It smells like you.

Me?

I don't wear perfume.

The scent is gone.

As I said,

I never wear perfume.

Then maybe one day,

the scent of agarwood got on you,

and I just happened to be around.

Or perhaps,

this scent

resembles you.

It resembles me?

In what way?

It is very gentle and mild.

It smells pleasant and not bland at all.

So this is what you think of me.

An agarwood tree without resin

is just an ordinary piece of timber.

But once it forms resin, it becomes true agarwood,

and a top-grade medicinal material that helps with the circulation of energy.

You think highly of me.

I shouldn't have said that sentence.

Don't worry about that.

I've received all your compliments.

It has come to my notice

that you do have a lot in common with this scent.

It is a complicated kind of smell,

somewhat like

a toxic substance.

Is it the smell of garbage?

You got drunk that night

and called me garbage.

You know I was drunk.

What I said was nonsense.

People tell the truth when they're drunk.

Suppose I did tell the truth,

that might not be directed at you.

Not me, indeed.

I am a top-grade medicine that helps with energy circulation.

For frustrated and depressed people

like you,

I am the best cure.

You're talking nonsense.

The prescription you made for me

does not include agarwood.

Someday it will.

What are you going to do with that toy?

You should dispose of it.

I won't play with it anyway.

Okay.

Well,

thank you. I said that for my son.

Let's go.

Okay.

When we get back,

I'll give you a present.

What is it?

You'll know when we're back.

I've arrived at your department building.

Coming right up.

The photo has been edited. Send it to Dr. He.

You could've sent it to him yourself.

I'm asking you to do it.

Sorry for the long wait.

No worries. It wasn't that long.

What's up? Why are you smiling?

I'm thinking

that this is the exact place

where you sat

and cursed me that night.

I was drunk at that time, wasn't I?

-Sorry.
-I'm just kidding.

Here,

I made you a sachet.

Thank you.

Take a sniff.

I smell agarwood.

You have a keen nose.

By the way,

you didn't show up for a follow-up visit yesterday.

What about next week's medicine?

Oh, I'm feeling much better.

Don't you think the medication can stop now?

Okay.

Come over for moxibustion when you have time.

What now?

Do you mean I can't come meet you unless I'm sick?

No, you can come and dine with me.

It's up to you.

Well,

I'll see about that later.

You're back.

Yeah.

Good timing.

What's that?

A gift from the clinic.

Come on, take a sniff.

It smells nice.

It does, right?

Don't you think you're overjoyed at a free sachet?

Am I?

I doubt it.

I'll go change.

That sachet from the clinic

has a scent of agarwood.

It smells quite nice.

Shall we go get one too?

Sure. Sure. Sure.

Today...

No beer for today, again.

♫A faint aroma♫

♫Slowly awakening my heart♫

For frustrated and depressed people

like you,

I am the best cure.

♫The elusive little mist appears and disappears♫

You're talking nonsense.

The prescription you made for me

does not include agarwood.

♫Quietly entering your world, your memories♫

Someday it will.

♫The unexpected encounter with the wind♫

♫Layer by layer, rendering the air♫

♫The whispers that are sometimes far, sometimes near♫

♫Exchanging our hidden secrets♫

Hello?

Uh, is your work finished?

♫Using my breath♫

Yes. It was just over.

How is it going?

What are you asking about?

I mean things between you and Miss Shen.

♫To blend the soothing scent of love♫

Great, I think.

♫To merge in♫

Li Jie does have a good eye.

Li Jie?

♫Air♫

What did he tell you?

He said you and that girl exchanged amorous glances.

What amorous glances?

♫Shortens the distance between two hearts♫

I didn't do that.

I just...

♫You're everywhere♫

clicked with her.

Alright, no more question.

The elderly visiting group will arrive soon.

Everyone, look sharp!

-Yes.
-Yes.

Alright, here it is!

Hold onto your belongings and get off the coach nice and slow.

Welcome.

Nice to see you again.

Easy, easy, easy.

Follow the flag!

Easy with your pace.

Watch your step.

Uncles and aunties, nice and slow.

Nice and slow.

Oh, how beautiful!

Welcome.

Nice and slow.

Go check into the hotel.

Bring your belongings and proceed to check-in.

Nice and slow.

Just go directly to check-in.

Don't forget your belongings.

Welcome.

Slowly, ma'am.

Welcome.

Thank you.

Okay. Please sign here.

Hello, ma'am.

You wanna check out, right?

Get ready.

Three, two, one.

Cheese!

Manager Shen,

where can I get breakfast?

I'm feeling a bit dizzy.

I'll take you there.

Breakfast will start in an hour.

Okay, okay, okay.

Come on, let's go.

Hello, hello, hello.

This way, please. This way.

Three, two, one, cheese!

Let's take one more photo.

Three, two, one, cheese!

[Yuncong All Day Dining Restaurant]

Uncles and aunties,

we've designed new dishes

for the hotel restaurant.

They're special in their own way. Please have a try.

Manager Xu,

all of these are traditional Chinese medicinal herbs.

Good stuff!

Yes, you're right.

Uncles and aunties,

let me give you a brief introduction.

This is the area

where we prepare medicinal cuisine.

All the materials we use

are the freshest seasonal herbs.

Not bad, not bad.

Is this donkey-hide gelatin?

Uncles and aunties,

here is some porridge made with red dates, white jelly mushroom and lotus seeds.

It reduces dryness and is good for blood.

This porridge is proper food

for autumn days like these.

Sounds good.

Each of us should get one bowl later.

Good. One bowl for each of us.

Right.

We gotta taste it.

We've also prepared crucian carp soup.

There is

ginger, spring onions,

astragalus

and red dates.

They help lower cholesterol levels.

lower cholesterol levels?

I want a bowl of this porridge too.

Give me a bowl of it.

A bowl of porridge, sir.

Miss,

is there a suitable drink for the elderly like us?

In the past few days,

we've been on planes and buses.

We feel pain in the legs and knees.

We're exhausted.

We will serve some soup made with eucommia, chestnuts, and chicken feet tonight.

It's good for the kidneys and spleen.

Maybe you can give it a try.

-It's perfect for you.
-I've never tasted it.

But I'm like to give it a try.

We've placed aromatic materials

under your pillows as a sleep aid.

If you don't like the smell,

I'll change it for you at any time.

Just contact me.

Okay, thank you.

Come this way to see your room.

Mm, okay.

This way, please.

Hello. Since you just informed the reception of your sleeplessness,

we've prepared a pillow filled with Chinese senna for you.

It is good for your liver and eyes,

and it also helps to calm your nerves.

Please come in.

Thank you.

Hello!

Hello.

How may I help you?

Well,

could you change the aroma

in my room?

I don't like the smell of grass.

I'm sorry.

8252.

Are you Ms. Liu Yunci?

Yes, I am.

Let me see.

Before checking in,

you didn't specify any special requirements.

So we prepared an aroma of mugwort,

sandalwood, magnolia, and camphor for you.

This mainly

inhibits bacterial activity and cleans the air.

That said,

it's fine if you don't like it.

May I ask what efficacy do you wish

the new aroma will bring?

I don't care for the efficacy.

I just want something mellow and warm.

Let me see what I can get for you.

Here is another type of aroma we offer.

It smells agarwood, fragrant rosewood, fructus amomi and styrax benzoin.

It mainly improves blood circulation and relieves pain.

Do you like it?

It relieves pain...

I'd like to give it a try.

Okay, no problem.

I'll bring it to you right away.

Okay, thank you.

You're welcome.

Housekeeping Dept., agarwood aroma for Room 8252.

Please send the supplies up here now.

Congratulations.

You've completed another session of chemotherapy.

Are you feeling any discomfort?

I'm not having diarrhea

or vomitting.

But I do have a lot of burps.

Those are not burps.

They're hiccups

caused by the stomach injury induced by the chemotherapy.

Starting from tonight,

you need to take some stomach medicine

and have millet porridge, et cetera.

You will soon feel better.

That's great. Thank you, Dr. He.

You care a lot about Ze.

I'm just doing my job.

Oh, right.

A lady has sent you a present

to reward your positive attitude towards receiving treatment.

Take it.

This is too much.

It's alright. Just keep it.

As long as Ze continues the treatment, takes it seriously,

and recovers soon,

that lady will be very pleased.

Just take it.

Take it out. Have a look.

What do you think?

Do you like it?

What a huge Transformer!

Mom, I've never received

a Transformer as big as this one.

Be gentle with it. Don't break it.

Dr. He, who is this kind lady?

I must thank her in person.

It's such an expensive toy.

No worries.

I'll tell her about your gratitude.

She...

She's just a friend of mine.

She heard about what happened

to you and Zhao Ze by chance,

and was impressed by your toughness,

so she'd like to give Ze a present.

Let's keep up the good work.

Perhaps you can be discharged before Chinese New Year.

Thank you, Dr. He.

Tell your friend I appreciate her kindness.

You're welcome.

May I take a photo of you

and send it to her?

Then she'll know her best wishes have reached you.

Okay.

Can I take the photo with Mom?

Sure thing.

Wait, let me put on a hat.

Alright,

look at the camera.

Three,

two,

one.

Smile!

Let's take one more.

Three,

two,

one.

Done.

What a nice photo.

It can be opened up.

This...

This wheel.

You're very smart.

This wheel...

Your gift has been delivered.

The kid loves it.

He asked me to thank you on his behalf.

Glad he received it. I was worried that you might keep it for yourself

and play with it at home.

The kid looks spirited.

Will he be discharged soon?

He is diagnosed with pediatric leukemia,

and has just finished a session of chemotherapy.

I hope he will get well enough to be discharged before Chinese New Year.

Then I wish him to be healthy

and even stronger than the Transformer.

If you had come here that day,

you could've given him your best regards in person.

The kind lady wishes you to be healthy

and grow stronger than the Transformer.

Please tell her I say "thank you."

It's very courteous of you.

I got it. See you around.

Senior He.

Suye.

Suye looks cheerful.

That's rare.

Huh? What?

You're so silly.

Isn't it obvious?

Look at him.

He must be texting Manager Shen.

Have you ever seen him smile like this before?

Last time when he smiled like this,

he was still a college student.

At that time, I...

I was either in elementary or middle school.

I can't recall.

Anyway, it was many years ago.

This is fun.

When he was a college student...

I'd like to ask you a question.

Have a seat.

What question?

This has been on my mind for a long time.

I think it's time I asked you.

About the lady who sent me the Transformer,

what does she mean to you?

Just a friend?

I don't think so.

Is she your girlfriend or what?

Aren't you a clever little boy?

I can't believe I guessed it right.

My plan is a failure now.

What plan?

A plan to find myself a father

with my own efforts.

Father?

You seem like a decent guy to me.

You treat me nicely.

You treat my mom nicely too.

I am your doctor.

You are my patient.

Certainly, I need to be nice to you,

take good care of you,

and help you recover.

It is my responsibility to do so.

When my father was alive,

he always abused my mom

and yelled at her.

No one has talked to her as gently as you do.

Mom has suffered a lot

to get me medical treatment.

I want to find her a man that will treat her right.

But I can't be your father.

Forget it.

You have a girlfriend now.

I might as well give up my plan.

I've accepted her present after all.

I wish you and that kind lady happiness.

Message received.

Come on, let me walk you back.

We're finally getting a break.

When the elderly visitors come back from the scenic spots,

we'll be busy again.

You're drinking hot bubble tea now.

The weather is getting cooler. You should quit cold drinks too.

I'm fine. The cold doesn't bother me.

If you say so.

Without Xiangya,

I can't think of snarky words to say about you.

I'll probably resign next year.

You know my family runs a small company, right?

My parents want to retire and have me take it over.

So they can travel the world.

Where does that sudden thought come from?

They did talk to me about it some time ago,

but I could never make up my mind.

That's why I didn't tell you guys.

Is Xiangya not aware of it?

She overheard me and my mom talking on the phone.

That explains

why she was upset that day.

I'm just wondering

if she was upset

because I am not that good a friend

or what.

Why don't I ask her for you?

Please don't.

She's interested

in that young man now, isn't she?

She is not really into Li Jie.

You know how many

younger boys pursued her in college,

but she took interest in no one, right?

Could it be possible

that she likes younger men

as she gets older now?

You're the one getting old!

I don't wanna

talk about that now.

Well,

I have a question for you.

Do you think I still stand a chance with her

after being friends with her for such a long time?

Please get a quiet room

for the elder gentleman in Room 203.

Remember, it must not be a room at the end of the hallway.

Are you working late today?

No. Why?

The kid asked me to treat you to dinner

so I could thank you for giving him a present.

Okay. Will he join us?

No. He has to stay in the hospital.

Come to my place after work.

His place again?

Put on the slippers.

Dinner will be ready soon.

It'll just take a moment.

There is freshly made five-flavor fruit tea on the table.

Help yourself to it.

Thank you.

What's wrong?

My arm is sore.

I guess I pulled a muscle when I moved stuff.

What did you move

that could cause a muscle strain?

A large number

of elderly visitors are staying at my hotel, right?

I'm telling you,

these people are amazing.

They buy local specialties,

souvenirs from gift shops,

and fruit from roadside stands.

They are unbelievable.

At 4 AM, they set out to watch the sunrise.

When they come back in the afternoon, they are still energetic.

They put us young people to shame.

Now I can't take a few steps without panting.

Nowadays,

many elderly people

know a lot about how to stay healthy.

The elderly guests you're catering now

are financially comfortable

and healthy.

Fragile young people like you

who spend every day in air-conditioned offices

with enormous stress

are no match for them.

Dr. He, you're so mean.

How am I being mean?

I'm just reminding you

that you should take care

of your body before making money.

I got it.

Everything you say is centered on your profession.

Do you mind if I put pepper in this?

Dr. He,

this is...

Dr. He, let me do you a favor.

Check this out.

Does it look like a ring to you?

It's yours now. You're welcome.

You gave me a ring in the afternoon,

but I lost it.

It went missing when I got off work.

How about I buy you a new one?

This is...
