"Sister-in-law, it's okay. I just bought some herbs. There's nothing shameful about it." Chen Jiao said generously.
She had been prepared for the possibility that someone on the tractor would pull off the cloth covering her backpack, so she took a handful of herbs with her when she left home, and after putting the rice, flour and meat in, she covered them with another layer of herbs.
Seeing that Shen Jiao was not angry, Mrs. Chen was relieved. "Jiao Jiao, didn't you go into the mountains to collect the medicine for your Zheng Xu? Why do you need to buy it?"
Chen Jiao smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, I have never studied medicine, and even with the drawings that Doctor Xu gave me, I can’t recognize a few herbs, and besides, herbs in the mountains are not that easy to find.

When Shen Jiao said this, everyone on the tractor was shocked, "Zhengxu's family, Zhengxu has retired from the army?"
They all knew that Lu Zhengxu was an officer when he came back four years ago. After Lu Zhengxu woke up this time, many people in the village were thinking of following Lu Zhengxu's path and sending their children to join the army.
