Chapter 123 Fairy Sister!

With everyone working together and exerting tremendous effort, they finally managed to pull Su Yue and Xiao Shitou up safely.

As soon as they returned to flat ground, Little Stone burst into tears and buried his face in the arms of his sister-in-law, who had arrived shortly after.

Sister-in-law Sun held her son, whom she had lost and then found again, and wept uncontrollably.

The other military wives and children surrounded Su Yue with eyes that looked at her as if she were a goddess.

"Dr. Su, are you alright?"

"Oh my god, Su Yue, you scared me to death! How could you go down there by yourself!" Sister Li patted her chest, still shaken.

The children looked at her with eyes full of adoration.

"Aunt Su Yue, you're amazing!"

"You're even more amazing than the gods in the movies! You're a fairy goddess!"

A chubby-faced child shouted out the sentiments of all children.

"Fairy Sister!"

"Fairy Sister!"

The children excitedly joined in the shouts, their eyes sparkling like stars as they looked at Su Yue.

At this moment, in their hearts, Su Yue was no longer just a gentle aunt who could cook delicious food and teach them to recognize herbs, but an omnipotent hero who could save them.

Su Yue comforted everyone for a few moments, then squatted down to carefully examine Xiao Shitou's wound.

The herbs were firmly applied to the wound, completely stopping the bleeding.

She checked Xiao Shitou's pulse again and confirmed that he was only frightened and had superficial injuries, and was not in any danger to his life. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

After dealing with all of this, her gaze finally fell on the spot where Little Stone had reached out to grab earlier.

In the crevice of the rock, a strange plant was swaying in the wind.

Its leaves have a mysterious deep purple color, and in the sunlight, it seems as if there are flowing lights moving between the veins of the leaves. In the air, there is also a faint but extremely alluring fragrance.

Su Yue's pupils suddenly contracted.

That's it!

She carefully climbed over and dug the plant out of the ground, roots and all.

Holding it in your hands, the strange fragrance becomes even stronger, as if it can penetrate into your very being.

Purple Blood Ginseng!

And judging by its condition, it's at least fifty years old!

In my previous life, this thing was a priceless treasure; even a small piece could fetch an astronomical price.

It has a remarkable effect on repairing damaged bodily functions and is a core ingredient in making top-tier life-saving medicines. I never expected to find it here.

It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly.

Su Yue suppressed her overwhelming joy, carefully wrapped the purple blood ginseng in a handkerchief, and put it into a compartment of her medicine box.

She stood up, looked at the little faces in front of her, dirty from fear, and then at the bamboo baskets piled high at their feet.

The bamboo basket contained their afternoon's harvest.

Dandelion, plantain, selfheal...

After the incident of rescuing people from the cliff, Su Yue's reputation as "Fairy Sister" spread like wildfire throughout the entire military compound overnight.

Holding her son, Xiao Shitou, whom she had just found, Sister Sun cried her eyes out. The look in her eyes when she looked at Su Yue was no longer just gratitude, but almost awe.

"Dr. Su, you...you are the savior of my little stone! I...I kneel down before you!"

As she spoke, she tried to pull her son down to kneel.

Su Yue quickly caught her, her brows furrowing slightly.

"Sister-in-law Sun, a man's knees are worth gold, don't kneel so easily. It's good that Little Stone is alright."

Li's wife patted her chest, still shaken, and her loud voice had become much quieter.

"My God, Su Yue, you scared me to death just now! That's a cliff! How could you dare to jump off? You...you're not even human! You're a fairy descended from heaven!"

The children around her surrounded Su Yue with the eyes of someone looking at a hero, shouting excitedly.

"Fairy Sister!"

"Aunt Su Yue is a fairy!"

Amid the noisy crowd, Su Yue remained unusually calm. She reassured everyone for a few moments, then her gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on the plant she had carefully placed in the medicine box.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, she took out the deep purple plant that emitted a strange and subtle fragrance from a hidden compartment in the medicine box.

"This is……"

"My goodness, what is this thing? It's so beautiful!"

The military wives curiously gathered around to look.

Su Yue held up the "Purple Blood Ginseng" in front of everyone. Under the sunlight, its mysterious purple leaves seemed to shimmer with light, and its refreshing fragrance invigorated everyone.

"This thing is called Purple Blood Ginseng, and it's an extremely precious medicinal herb," ​​Su Yue said calmly.

Everyone held their breath.

Precious medicinal herbs? How much would those be worth?

Everyone assumed that Su Yue would treasure it and keep it to herself. After all, she had risked her life to find it at the place where the little stone had been in danger.

However, Su Yue's next words completely stunned everyone present.

"This purple blood ginseng does not belong to me alone."

Her gaze swept over everyone present, especially the children whose faces were flushed with excitement.

"It is the first treasure discovered by our 'Little Shennong Team,' so it belongs to our group and is a shared treasure."

collective?

Common wealth?

These words hit the military wives so hard they didn't react for a while.

Su! Yue! Are you! Saying! What! Is! You!?

Before they could process this shocking news, Su Yue had already called aside several of the most proactive and also the most financially strapped military wives, including Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Sun.

Her eyes were clear and bright, carrying an undeniable power.

"Sisters, I want to come clean with you all today, I'm not going to pretend anymore."

She got straight to the point, her tone serious.

"We can't just be satisfied with digging up some plantain and dandelion to exchange for a few pocket money. That won't solve the fundamental problem."

She pointed to the rolling green hills in the distance.

“That mountain is a gold mine! We’re guarding a gold mine, but we only pick up sesame seeds. That’s not right.”

Li's sister-in-law was confused by what she said and was the first to raise a question.

"Su Yue, what exactly do you want to say? Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."

"Okay." Su Yue nodded, took a deep breath, and dropped a bombshell.

"I want to lead everyone to build a processing workshop for us military spouses! To turn these treasures from the mountains into real medicines, into commodities, and sell them!"

"What?!"

"Build a workshop?!"

Several military wives were stunned by this forward-thinking idea.

Sister-in-law Li was the first to jump up, her voice regaining its usual volume.

"Su Yue, are you running a fever? Building a workshop? Us? A bunch of housewives who can barely read or write their own names? How are we supposed to build it? No money, no skills, no connections, isn't this just ridiculous?!"

“Yes, Dr. Su, this is no joke. What if we mess it up…” Aunt Sun timidly chimed in.

Faced with their doubts and concerns, Su Yue showed no impatience whatsoever.

She simply took out a stack of draft paper that she had prepared beforehand from her cloth bag. The paper was covered with drawings in delicate handwriting and densely packed words.
