Chapter 83 All Mine
After hearing her explanation, Uncle Zhong sighed softly and said regretfully, "It's not your fault. In the current situation, there are no medicinal herbs for you to know. The good ones have probably been confiscated."
"These herbs of mine have been preserved because they were kept secret. If they were left out in the open, they would have been gone long ago." He spoke as he looked at the herbs with a nostalgic look on his face.
"Come closer and take a look. I guarantee you'll be surprised." Uncle Zhong saw that she was standing a little far away, so he waved to her to come closer.
"Okay." Li Yiyi walked towards him with a little nervousness.
As she approached, she was reluctant to take her eyes off the medicine placed in front of her.
"This is rhino horn, right? There are also sea lion whip, musk, old mountain ginseng, ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum..." She couldn't even name the rest of the herbs, there were just too many.
Jiang Hong, who followed, was also surprised when he saw these medicinal herbs. He didn't expect that there were so many medicinal herbs hidden in this house that everyone hated.
"These medicinal herbs are hard to find now, but there were quite a lot in the past. What a pity, because of those people, all the good herbs were wasted." When Uncle Zhong looked at the medicinal herbs he had hidden at home, he couldn't help but think of those herbs that were thrown away outside, and his heart ached.
After hearing his sigh, Li Yiyi felt a little depressed.
Uncle Zhong quickly recovered his good mood and said to Li Yiyi, "Comrade Xiao Jiang and I have a predestined relationship. I will not bring these things with me when I die. I just happened to hear that you, Xiao Jiang, are a student of traditional Chinese medicine. These things are useless in my hands now, so I might as well give them to you. I hope you can use them to save people who need them."
When Li Yiyi heard his last words, she looked at him with unbelieving eyes.
Now only one thought flashed through her mind, that is, maybe this old man didn't know the value of these medicines, so he gave them to her so readily.
"Uncle Zhong, do you know the effects of these herbs?" she asked him kindly.
Uncle Zhong laughed, "My family used to run a medicine shop, how could I not know? Don't worry, I know how valuable these herbs are. I told you, these herbs are just a pile of herbs in my hands. Herbs are only useful when they are used to save lives."
Li Yiyi suddenly felt admiration in her heart and bowed respectfully to the old man, "Thank you, Uncle Zhong."
If these things were available a dozen years in the future, they would not be available even if you had money, and the pills made from these things could even save lives.
For example, the Niuhuang Pills of later generations used musk. The reason why they were so expensive was because of the addition of this precious medicinal ingredient.
Half an hour later, when the three men came out of the cellar, Jiang Hong was carrying a large bag on his shoulders, which was filled with precious medicinal herbs from the cellar.
"Okay, let's go our separate ways. I don't need you to send me off. Hide these things well." Uncle Zhong suddenly said as they came out of the door.
Li Yiyi looked at the night sky and was worried that it was unsafe for him to walk on the road alone. "Why don't we take you back? We can go back after that."
Uncle Zhong knew what she was worried about, and said with a smile, "No need. Although my hair is gray, I am only in my fifties. I can still walk at night. Don't worry about me. But Comrade Xiao Jiang must protect the things he is carrying. You should go back quickly and don't stay any longer."
Seeing the old man's insistence, Li Yiyi didn't know what to say, so she handed him the flashlight and said, "Then take this thing home. If you don't want it, we will send you back. You can choose it yourself."
When Uncle Zhong heard her words, he laughed and said, "You're still threatening me. Okay, I'll take this flashlight back. I think you should be relieved now."
The young couple watched him walk away, and then they took advantage of the bright moonlight above their heads to walk towards the rental house.
On the way back, Li Yiyi took a look at the pile of medicinal herbs on Jiang Hong's back, and couldn't help but sigh. "I can't believe that Uncle Zhong is so miserable, yet he is willing to give out such precious medicinal herbs. He is really a good person."
"It's a pity that this world is unfair." Jiang Hong was silent for a while and then spoke.
The couple was walking on the quiet night street, and from time to time they could hear the adults in some household scolding their disobedient children.
Back at the rental house, Li Yiyi couldn't wait to take out the precious medicinal herbs in the bag.
"I didn't expect that the things in Uncle Zhong's hands are so old and still so well preserved. As expected, he is a family of traditional Chinese medicine. These things are simply excellent materials for making medicine." The more she looked at them, the more she realized that these things were really good things that could not be bought even with money.
Jiang Hong was helping to tidy up the place when suddenly something caught his attention.
"Wife, this thing looks weird. Can it be used to make medicine?" He picked up this strange thing and asked like a curious baby.
Li Yiyi put down the musk in her hand, heard his question, looked up at what he was holding in his hand. Soon, she looked at him, then looked at what he was holding in his hand, and burst out laughing.
"This sea lion whip, what is its function? If women eat it, it can nourish yin and improve complexion. If men use it, it can do that. You know, the name makes it easy to understand." After explaining this, she blinked at him twice.
When Jiang Hong heard this, he understood what his wife had not finished explaining, and his cheeks turned red instantly.
"No wonder this thing looks so weird, it turns out it has this function, but I won't use it anymore. You know best whether I can do it or not, don't you, my wife?"
Li Yiyi looked into his fiery eyes and immediately felt a little dry in the mouth. She quickly changed the subject, "Have you boiled the hot water on the coal stove? I want to take a shower and go to bed."
When he heard the word "sleep" from her, his fiery eyes instantly became brighter, and his tone of answer became a little more anxious, "Okay, I'll go check it out, wife, wait for me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran towards the kitchen. His running figure made it impossible to tell that this guy was still lying in the hospital today.
Li Yiyi looked at his back for a while, shook her head and smiled, then she stopped caring about his matter and continued to study the precious medicinal materials on the table.
At this moment, she looked at these precious medicinal herbs and smiled foolishly.
It was such a coincidence that the book she bought from the woman who sold wild turtles yesterday actually had a method for making medicine.
