"Herbal tea?"
When Gu Yunyang came out, he saw the three Gu brothers standing outside, each holding an enamel mug.
"What kind of herbal tea?"
His five senses were quite acute, and he easily detected the slight bitterness emanating from the enamel cup.
A little bit of memory about Guangdong Province is reviving.
The weather in Guangdong Province is hot and humid, making it easy to get internal heat.
So the people of Guangdong province used their wisdom to invent herbal tea.
In my previous life, when I worked in Guangdong Province, the company cafeteria would prepare this dish for lunch.
Many pharmacies prepare free herbal tea for passersby.
It does reduce internal heat, but the taste...
Gu Yunyang has a wood-based superpower that allows him to heal his body, so he doesn't need to worry about that.
He genuinely disliked this bitter taste.
However, Zhang Jianjun, who was standing to the side, asked curiously, "What kind of herbal tea?"
Gu Yunyang opened the door, and the three of them had already entered.
The gate to the yard is not closed during the day. In fact, you can just reach in from outside the yard and the gate will open.
This thing is only good for keeping out honest people, not scoundrels.
Of course, Gu Yunyang built the fence mainly to keep out other people's sight, so that no one could see what he was doing at home.
It's also to keep out animals, not people.
Gu Changsong and Zhang Jianjun had become quite familiar with each other, and Gu Changsong put his arm around Zhang Jianjun's shoulder and said, "My mom got so angry with my sister-in-law yesterday that she got a sore throat. Today she got blisters in her mouth, so we made her some herbal tea to cool her down."
"Getting a sore throat? I think I've been getting a sore throat too these past few days." Zhang Jianjun said with some curiosity, "Come to think of it, back in Beijing, I would never get a sore throat even once a year. How come I almost got one after only a few days here?"
Gu Yunyang smiled and took out cups, sharing some with everyone, saying, "This is because of the weather. The capital is dry, so it's relatively less likely to cause internal heat."
The Guangdong province is hot and humid, making it easy to get internal heat.
"Oh, you even made herbal jelly?"
The texture of herbal jelly and black jelly looks very similar.
However, black jelly is made from jelly grass, while turtle jelly is mainly made from Chinese herbal medicines such as tortoise shell, licorice, and polygonatum. It has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, nourishing yin and stomach, and is suitable for people in the later stages of febrile diseases, fatigue, thirst, etc.
Black jelly is made primarily from natural mesona polysaccharides. The resulting gelatin is a soft, brownish-red solid with a smooth texture, a unique chewy feel, and a distinctive natural aroma.
These two look the same and have similar effects.
But they are definitely not the same thing.
Zhang Jianjun drank a cup of herbal tea, but almost spat it out as soon as it entered his mouth.
After finally swallowing it, his face turned completely black: "This thing..."
"Hehe, isn't it bitter?" Zhang Jianjun was speechless at Gu Changsong's successful prank. Was his friend a little unscrupulous?
Gu Yunyang explained, "Herbal tea is made from Chinese herbs, so it's not bitter, is it? Have some turtle jelly, it's actually good for reducing internal heat."
Gu Changzhu shook his head: "Forget it, the herbal jelly tastes bitter too. I was forced to drink a bowl of herbal tea at home, and I don't want to drink it anymore. Besides, this stuff isn't cold enough; I didn't have time to chill it in well water."
In the entire Hongqi Brigade, only the well that originally belonged to the landlord had water that was warm in winter and cool in summer. In the past, many villagers would chill things in that well during the summer.
The water from all the other wells in the village is not as good as this one.
But now that place has been used as a settlement for educated youth sent to the countryside, the villagers can no longer go there.
