The backpack was almost full but Lu Wan still couldn't find it. She raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face and felt a little regretful. Just as she was lamenting that there was a difference between the modern world and here, a tender green bud under a tree not far away caught her attention.
She walked over quickly and dug out the herb at the corresponding place on the other side of the tree. At this moment, she found that there seemed to be other herbs under the tree. She didn't care about being happy and reached out to dig. Sure enough, she dug up something.
These are extremely rare medicinal herbs in the 21st century, and one plant can be sold at a sky-high price.
Lu Wan put these herbs neatly into the backpack, fearing that they would get bumped or dented. Although he didn't know how much these herbs would cost here, they wouldn't be too bad at least. After all, the auctioneer called them unique herbs with amazing curative effects.
When she returned, Lu Xiaojing had picked a basket full of herbs that she had requested, and sat there obediently to enjoy the scenery. She was happy in her heart, and her tone was very cheerful: "Xiaojing, are you hungry? Let's go home."
"Yeah!" Lu Xiaojing pulled Lu Wan's finger and followed her, as if he was infected by her happy breath, and jumped as he walked.
The two of them went up the mountain with gloomy expressions, but they were very happy when they came down. When they got to the bottom of the mountain, Lu Wan remembered that she should go to the medicine shop to identify the medicinal material first, so as not to make a mistake. So she squatted in front of Lu Xiaojing, looking at Lu Xiaojing's fair and tender face, which was scratched with several red marks, and felt a little distressed: "Xiaojing, are you tired? Sister has to go to the medicine shop. Otherwise, sister can send Xiaojing home first?"
Lu Xiaojing tilted his head to think for a moment, then shook his head. Lu Wan had no choice but to nod and agree: "Then if Xiaojing can't walk anymore, tell me and I'll take you home."
The main reason was that the pharmacy was quite far from the Lu family, so it couldn't really be said to be very close. Lu Wan was worried that Lu Xiaojing couldn't handle it, but she was relieved when she saw that Lu Xiaojing didn't show off.

There was some noise at the entrance of the medicine shop. At a glance, there were many people there for medical treatment. Lu Wan was a little anxious. With so many people, the shop would probably close by the time he got in line. Unexpectedly, a voice came from the front, "Did any girl or lady pick herbs today? Do you have Scrophularia or Eyebright? The medicine shop doesn't have enough. You can buy it at a high price."
"Me!" Lu Wan responded loudly, and the people in front turned around and made way for her. Lu Wan took the basket from Lu Xiaojing and handed it to the doctor. She had asked Lu Xiaojing to pick a lot of these herbs just now because she saw that there were a lot of them on the mountain and they were not damaged. This kind of herb can be used to stop bleeding, and even if it cannot be sold, it can be kept for personal use.
"Miss, come with me." A doctor called Lu Wan to the back to settle the bill, and Lu Wan followed. She put the backpack aside and explained her purpose. When the doctor was about to clean the backpack, Lu Wan stopped him.
"Don't worry, wait for your doctor to come." Lu Wan knew that the medical boy must not recognize those herbs, and was afraid that they would be bumped and lose their value.
Just as the boy was about to ask, the doctor outside came in and asked, "Miss, do you have any precious medicinal herbs to pawn?"
Lu Wan nodded, took out the herbs and placed them on the cabinet. The doctor cried out in surprise. He asked the doctor boy beside him to take out the medical book and compare them one by one before he believed it. "I think the young lady has some knowledge of medicine and must know how precious these herbs are. However, due to the limited efficacy, they can only be sold for a hundred taels. I wonder if the young lady is willing to sell them?"
When Lu Wan heard about the 100 taels of silver, she was not unmoved. But she thought of Lu Nan's injury, shook her head, and said, "To be honest, my brother was injured a few days ago and needed this herb. But I was afraid that I had made a mistake, so I took out the herb and asked the doctor to take a look." The doctor had no choice but to nod, looking quite regretful. Lu Wan checked the method of decoction of the herb with the doctor, sold the other herbs, exchanged for some small change and rushed home.
"Brother, brother! My sister and I are back." Lu Xiaojing went to find Lu Nan as soon as he got home and stayed beside Lu Nan.
Lu Nan looked at Lu Wan and said, "Lu Wan, you're back? Why are you carrying such a heavy basket? Where have you been?" Lu Wan was asked a series of questions by him and didn't know which one to answer. Lu Nan stepped forward embarrassedly to help her take off the basket.
"Xiao Jing and I went up the mountain to pick some herbs for you, and then sold them to the medicine shop before returning." Fortunately, Lu Wan reacted and answered one by one. By the way, he took out the herbs and boiled them in the pot for him to boil medicine.

"Why did you buy medicine? Just keep the money. My injury is not serious and will heal in a while. Don't waste money." Seeing her busy boiling medicine, Lu Nan said seriously. He didn't want to be a burden to Lu Wan, he should protect her.
Lu Wan closed the lid, turned around and glared at him, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about? A broken body is a lifelong problem, how can you delay it? I haven't touched the money from the sale, I picked it myself."
"Thank you for your hard work, Lu Wan. You are the only one supporting the family. It's my fault." Lu Nan's voice was filled with sorrow. Before he could continue, he was interrupted by Lu Wan's action. Lu Wan crushed one of the herbs, smeared it on the gauze and patted him. Lu Nan's face turned red, and he finally found his voice: "Give it to me, I can do it myself."
"You were quite talkative just now, weren't you? Hurry up and take off your clothes. I'll apply medicine to an acupuncture point on your back that you can't find." Lu Wan didn't waste any more time talking to him and said it directly. Lu Nan could only do as he was told. Lu Wan wrapped the gauze around it and tied it up. At this time, the decocted medicine was almost ready, so Lu Wan poured it out, cooled it down, and handed it to Lu Nan.
