Chapter 53: Understanding Herbs



Gu Yanming was a little embarrassed when he heard about the efficacy, and now Mr. Yan said that it was suitable for him! His face darkened instantly.

The sound was squeezed out from between teeth, word by word.

"I don't need it!"

Ye Xinran was also very embarrassed. He just pulled up an inconspicuous grass from the side and used his internal strength without damaging the roots.

He stretched it out in front of Master Yan and changed the subject, "Master, what about this? Is it a medicinal herb?"

Old Yan took a look, raised his eyebrows, nodded with a half-smile, and said, "It's a medicinal herb called Gou Ji! It has the effects of nourishing the liver and kidneys, strengthening the bones and tendons, and curing wind deficiency!"

"Uh, okay!" Ye Xinran curled the corners of her mouth, "Okay, they are both good for nourishing the kidneys, what a coincidence! Hahaha!"

Gu Yanming felt that he couldn't stay any longer. He quickly followed the team forward! Even Daoqin and Jianshu were embarrassed and quickly slipped away.

"There is no distinction between men and women in front of a doctor! Look at all of you!" Old Yan snorted and sneered, shook his head, pulled out another piece of grass from the side, handed it to Ye Xinran, and asked.

"Do you know what this is?"

Ye Xinran took it, smelled it, looked at it, and then shook his head honestly, "Master, this seems very common, what kind of herb is this?"

“This is wild vegetable!”

Mr. Yan took it again, plucked off a leaf and put it in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it.

Is it necessary to be so fierce? Ye Xinran stared.

"You try it too!" Old Yan said as he handed Ye Xinran a leaf.

Ye Xinran wanted to refuse.

"How can we learn about herbal medicine without trying hundreds of herbs?" Old Yan narrowed his eyes, "Hmm?"

Ye Xinran could only take it obediently. Fortunately, there are no pesticides, no technology, and no hard work in this era! As long as you wipe off the dust, you can eat it directly.

Ye Xinran also imitated Mr. Yan and threw it directly into his mouth, chewing it! The result was...

Ah, it’s so bitter…

Her whole face wrinkled up.

Mr. Yan had a wicked smile on his face!

"It's a wild vegetable, but it's also a herb! This is chicory, which can treat anorexia, nourish the stomach, promote urination, improve eyesight, and treat hemorrhoids and fistulas."

Ye Xinran nodded, swallowed it reluctantly, and then carefully recorded it in a small notebook.

The two of them walked and learned along the way, and Ye Xinran also learned about no less than thirty kinds of herbs.

At noon, the exile team stopped by the roadside to rest. Gu Yanming took the sword book to go hunting nearby.

Dao Qin picked up some firewood nearby, then she and Gu Yanxin took out the food that Ye Xinran had bought earlier, set up a pot, and prepared to cook porridge.

Ye Xinran went to see Ye Liang and his wife. They brought food with them, so there was no need to worry. The main problem was the little girl Changle, who was hiding in the corner of the carriage again, ignoring people and not eating.

Ye Xinran frowned, thinking that this little girl probably had a serious mental illness and she really needed to do something instead of just staying in the carriage.

She thought about it and decided not to let her ride in the carriage in the afternoon, but to walk with her. By the way, they could learn herbal knowledge together, which would be a capital for them to settle down.

After a while, Gu Yanming and Jianshu came back. They had killed a small wild goat, a rabbit, and a fish. They had skinned and processed them all.

Daoqin picked up some branches and skewered the rabbit and fish separately. The goat was cut into several pieces by the knife and skewered separately, and then all were roasted on the fire.

Seeing this, Ye Xinran thought that it would not taste good after being roasted. Isn't this a waste of game?

She directly took out a small jar of oil, salt, cumin and chili powder from the space! Then she took a leg of lamb from Daoqin's hand, brushed a layer of oil on the outside, sprinkled salt on it, and then sprinkled cumin on it!

She was almost drooling, not to mention the others. The whole exile team was filled with this fragrance. People looked over.

"This smells so good!" Jianshu's eyes widened and he drooled. But he didn't dare to ask for it openly. Seeing his master's eyes glowing green, he carefully moved over and said.

"Master, the princess is amazing, the roasted lamb leg is so delicious!"

"Well, it smells really good!" Gu Yanming dared to say that there is no roasted lamb leg more fragrant than this!

"The lamb leg that the princess roasted is so big, I guess we can't finish it!" Jianshu reminded in a low voice, "The prince should have a portion too!"

After hearing this, Gu Yanming thought so too, and believed that his princess would definitely give him food.

"Master, please give your beloved subordinate a bite too! Just one bite!"

Gu Yanming was amused and speechless. He might not even have enough to eat, and he wanted to give it back! What a wish!

Jianshu didn't hear the answer he wanted, and with a frustrated look on his face, he squatted next to Daoqin and said unhappily, "They're all barbecue, can't you grill them a little better?"

Daoqin simply ignored him. He saw that the princess added a lot of seasonings, so how could the taste be bad!

After a while, the lamb leg was cooked, and Ye Xinran waved towards Gu Yanming.

Gu Yanming's eyes lit up, and he walked over under the envious gazes of everyone with a look of honor on his face.

"princess……"

Before Gu Yanming finished speaking, he heard Ye Xinran say.

"Your Highness, go ask Fifth Sister to bring some bowls. I want to share this leg of lamb."

Gu Yanming did not waste any time and quickly took the bowl back. Ye Xinran took a knife and divided the roasted lamb into six equal parts. Then he instructed Gu Yanming to take two portions to the old princess and the prince.

Gu Yanming froze, "What about the rest?"

"Of course it's for my parents and my master and uncle!" Ye Xinran said.

Oh! Well! So there is no place for him!

Gu Yanming went to deliver the food helplessly.

After Ye Xinran delivered the lamb leg, she taught Dao Qin how to roast it. Gu Yanxin also came over to learn.

"First, add oil, then salt and cumin. If you can handle spicy food, add chili powder!"

"Cumin?" Dao Qin was curious!

"What is chili?" Jianshu also came over and asked curiously.

Gu Yanxin blinked her big eyes and looked at Ye Xinran for an answer.

Gu Yanming also came over and watched.

Ye Xinran thought about it and realized that, at that time, no one had started eating chili peppers, and cumin was also used as a spice.

"Chili is a spice! So is cumin! It's an indescribable taste, but you can try it later!"

It was already half cooked, and after adding the seasoning, it was ready to eat. Almost everyone had one. Even Changle had one, but hers was not seasoned with chili.

They ate so deliciously that they almost swallowed their tongues. The old prince, Mr. Yan and Ye Liang came over to eat.

Ye Xinran gave the extra bit to them. The others looked on with envy, but they couldn't say anything because they were all elders.

Seeing that they were not satisfied with the food, Ye Xinran grilled the rabbit and fish as well, and took out three bottles of beer from the space, giving one to each of them. The three of them ate barbecue and drank beer, and they were very satisfied.

Gu Yanming pursed his lips, leaned close to Ye Xinran and whispered, "Princess! Wife! Can you give me a bottle?" He no longer had the coldness and seriousness of the past.

Ye Xinran felt that he was a lone wolf on the top of the snow before! Now he is a big wolf dog. A little silly!
