Director Li smiled but remained silent.
He simply pointed to the people working in the fields.
"Do you think they need it?"
Guan Yuxi looked at the slender working people and was speechless with emotion.
Gynostemma pentaphyllum is a valuable medicine in modern society because it is effective in treating "the three highs" (high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol).
It also has the effects of strengthening the stomach and aiding digestion, as well as calming the nerves and promoting sleep.
This era...
If we can't even get enough to eat, where would we find food to digest?
If you're tired from working all day, you can fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow at night, so why would you need a sleep aid?
"The three highs" need no further explanation; they are diseases of the wealthy, luxuries that the vast majority of working people have never even heard of.
"Director Li, I understand."
One day, Gynostemma pentaphyllum will become a necessity!
Guan Yuxi playfully stuck out her tongue.
Director Li was amused by her and said, "I hope so."
"Oh, you even picked a pig's nose (houttuynia cordata)?"
She looked at Guan Yuxi's little basket with surprise.
The white and tender houttuynia cordata emits a unique fragrance that makes one's mouth water.
Guan Yuxi generously took it out, "You like it too? I'll share half with you."
"Okay, I'll switch with you."
Director Li walked halfway down the stairs, then insisted on giving her two eggs.
Guan Yuxi quickly refused, "Director Li, no need, I dug it myself on the mountain, it didn't take much effort."
A whole basket of eggs isn't worth as much as a single egg, let alone two!
Director Li, however, wouldn't allow her to refuse, saying, "Finding this thing in the next couple of days won't be easy."
Besides, we usually don't have the time to go around looking for things.
I've been craving it for ages, I won't take it if you don't want it.
Houttuynia cordata, also known as fish mint, has a fishy smell, as the name suggests.
People who like it absolutely adore it.
Those who hate it feel like vomiting just from the smell.
Locals also call it pig's nostrils.
It is said that this is because its smell is similar to the fishy, foul odor emanating from a pig's nostrils.
In addition, pigs also like to eat...
Guan Yuxi quickly dismissed the thought.
He refused to accept Director Li's eggs no matter what, and ran off with his basket on his back.
"You child, why are you so honest?"
"Or, why don't you come and learn medicine from me?"
Director Li grabbed Guan Yuxi's basket.
