Chapter 171 New Tricks



Gu Shen quickly boiled the water, but instead of bringing it directly into the house, he called out from outside.

Xia Anyan just took out some small pieces of jewelry, cheap items, all purchased from the space shop.

But these things are already amazing enough to be seen now.

In fact, these things only appeared in the early 1980s, when people were just starting out in business.

Xia Anyan's presentation of these items was quite eye-catching.

Li Cuihua and Wang Chunlan were both dumbfounded. In fact, those glass beads were more attractive to them than the thousands of pieces of jewelry.

"Girl, did you bring all these things from Shanghai?" Wang Chunlan's voice trembled slightly.

She was trembling, afraid that she might accidentally drop it, and she held it with extreme care.

Xia Anyan ignored it completely, and directly took a string of them from the table and twirled it with her index finger.

Her action completely stunned the two of them.

Li Cuihua and Wang Chunlan kept their eyes fixed on the glass beads in her hand, wanting to catch them the moment she threw them out.

Xia Anyan was amused by the two women: "Sisters-in-law, these are actually not expensive. You can choose first. I'll bring in some hot water and make you some flower tea."

The flower tea was also taken from the space.

Nowadays, people will save any tea they have at home to serve others.

Some tea lovers even prefer to use dried tea roots to brew tea rather than drinking the tea leaves.

As long as they can taste tea, it's enough to satisfy their hearts.

Xia Anyan put a lot of dried flowers directly into the cup. Li Cuihua and Wang Chunlan were picking out glass beads and didn't notice.

But when Xia Anyan placed the cup in front of the two of them, they were genuinely startled.

"Sister...sister, are these flowers soaking in here?" Li Cuihua pointed to the dried roses inside.

Xia Anyan smiled and nodded: "Sister-in-law, this is flower tea. I bought it from Shanghai."

"These teas are more suitable for women to drink; they are good for their health."

As he spoke, he handed each of them a cup.

The two of them held their cups in both hands, unsure of what to do next.

Xia Anyan has so many wonderful things here; it's truly an eye-opener for them.

"Girl, this is such good stuff, you should keep it for yourself, don't give it to us." Li Cuihua handed the cup in her hand to Xia Anyan again.

Xia Anyan took two steps back and picked up a slightly larger bucket from the side.

"Sister-in-law, of course I won't treat myself badly. Look, I use such a big bucket to brew it for drinking."

What she called a bucket was actually just a small thermos.

Li Cuihua and Wang Chunlan stared at the huge thermos, completely at a loss for words.

This Xia girl is really amazing!

Looking around the entire residential compound, who else brews such a big pot of tea? Probably only those girls.

"Girl, you... drinking such a big pot of tea, aren't you afraid you won't be able to sleep at night?" Wang Chunlan thought of what her husband had told her before, that drinking tea makes it hard to fall asleep.

So, she asked that question.

Xia Anyan smiled and shook her head.

She pointed to what was in their cups: "Sisters, drinking this won't affect your sleep."

"As I just mentioned, this is flower tea, which is different from regular tea. Many of the ingredients in it are good for replenishing qi and blood, which is beneficial for women's health. It might even help them sleep better after drinking it."

This was the first time the two of them had ever heard of such a thing, that drinking it could actually replenish qi and blood.

They had only ever heard that red dates were good for women, and brown sugar was another thing. They had never paid attention to these kinds of flowers and herbs, let alone anything else.

Xia Anyan knew they didn't know much about these things, so she was happy to explain them to them.

If she hadn't transmigrated from modern society, she might not know any of this. But in her previous life, she had seen too much, and knew all sorts of ways to replenish qi and blood.

Don't ask why, she had a common woman's ailment in her past life, which was menstrual cramps.

Moreover, my health is quite poor, so I have no choice but to take supplements.

"Wow, this tastes really good." Wang Chunlan took a sip, and her eyes lit up.

After hearing this, Li Cuihua also took a sip, and surprisingly, it tasted somewhat sweet.

"I thought this would be bitter, but it's actually sweet." Li Cuihua's eyes lit up as she took two more sips.

Xia Anyan smiled.

She added red dates, goji berries, and longan to it.

And the dried rose petals, when put together, not only will they have a fragrance, but they will also have a sweet taste.

Most importantly, a little brown sugar is added.

Adding some other dried flowers will naturally enhance the flavor.

As long as it's not just chrysanthemum tea, it definitely won't taste very bitter.

What she can't stand the most is dried chrysanthemums.

In her past life, she not only had poor blood circulation, but also frequently suffered from internal heat.

Taking too many medications will weaken your body's resistance.

Even the liver can become overloaded.

She researched many methods to reduce her medication intake.

She has a very clear understanding of food therapy and dietary supplements.

She hates chrysanthemum tea every time she drinks it.

Even after someone told her that adding something else to chrysanthemum tea would make it better, she never touched it again.

Now that she's here, her body is clearly much better than her body in her previous life, so there's even less reason for her to push herself to the brink!

They parted ways around noon. Xia Anyan originally intended for the two of them to stay for lunch, but they refused, so she had to let them leave.

As soon as the people left, Gu Shen couldn't wait to hug Xia Anyan: "Wife, although these two sisters-in-law are nice people, I'm a little unhappy that they're competing with me for you."

Xia Anyan's lips twitched; she hadn't expected Gu Shen to say something like that.

She slapped Gu Shen: "What nonsense are you talking about? Those two sisters-in-law are just trying to help us."

Gu Shen naturally knew this, but knowing it didn't mean he was happy that someone was trying to steal his wife.

In short, he's a man who wants to stay close to his wife, and anyone who tries to stop him is a bad person.

Xia Anyan was at her wit's end with him, so she could only push him aside: "Alright, this afternoon my two sisters-in-law said they'd take me to the brigade to exchange for dried vegetables, so you can come with us then."

"This time, could you get a car so we can deliver the dried or fresh vegetables directly to Grandpa's place? That would be more convenient."
