Chapter 6 Isatis Root
Lin Yue taught her nephews about dandelions, but isatis root and bupleurum are more effective, so in addition to picking wild vegetables, there are more things to do.
Lin Yue remembered that Teacher Mo Shi had said that the growth environment of Isatis root was mostly in an area with sufficient water, direct sunlight for at least three or four hours, and fertile soil.
The leaves are large and oval, the stem is upright, 40 to 90 cm tall, with small yellow flowers and oblong siliques. This is the main plant of Isatis root. Isatis indigotica is also a medicinal ingredient for treating colds.
A bunch of tall and short ones, big fortune!
"Brother Xuan, quickly call sister-in-law over. We found some Isatis root. We can boil it up and drink it tonight."
Lin Daxuan also saw his younger brothers and sisters' unhappy faces and a little cough this morning, which made him worried.
When I heard my aunt say that she wanted to collect herbs and make them herself, I thought it was unreliable, but my grandparents agreed. My aunt has been reading all kinds of books since she was a child, so it is not surprising that she can recognize one or two herbs, but she is not as good as a professional doctor.
I heard from my mother that Yu Ge'er had a fever all night last night, so they must be scared.
"Mom, my aunt found Isatis root and is asking you to help!"
Zhang asked her daughter-in-law to look after the children and walked over quickly carrying the basket she had woven last night.
"Sister-in-law, pull out all of this, roots and leaves, they're all useful. This should be enough for the next two days. Let's hurry."
Lin Yue looked at the team that was already halfway there and quickened her movements. It would be troublesome if she was caught by Cheng Lei.
Cheng Lei was the weak scholar who had made accusations in front of Yang Dajun. He had not been treated well by the official Yang before and had been turned down by him, so he specifically targeted the Lin family. As long as she left the team or did something wrong, he would run out and yell at her to attract the officials.
Although he failed every time and even received a few whips, he became more and more excited. However, if he shouted to the officials to complain about the Lin family, the Lin family would not have a good reputation and might even make the officials disgusted.
When facing such a tough opponent, if you can't kill him in one go, then don't start a conflict. It's more important to preserve your strength.
A gray rabbit was eating tender leaves on a hillside not far away, and it poked its head out to look at Lin Yue curiously.
What kind of biped is this? It's much more beautiful than the monkeys crawling around in the woods, but her eyes are so scary. Slip away, slip away.
Lin Yue smiled slightly. It was a bit late for the little rabbit to remember to run now.
Several vines appeared silently behind the rabbit, tied it up in a second and threw it to the ground.
what happened?
Why can't I move my feet?
The rabbit had a hazy expression, and his eyes revealed clear stupidity.
"Hey, let you cook our dinner today!"
Lin Yue was afraid of being discovered, so she ran up the hillside and put the little rabbit at the bottom of the basket. She even twisted its neck to leave no chance of escape!
In the following time, they found honeysuckle and Houttuynia cordata one after another, but both of them had a suffocating smell, so they asked their sister-in-law Zhang to do it for them.
There was also a small incident in the afternoon.
A round-headed snake with khaki spots was spitting out its serpentine venom and coiling around the big tree where Lin Lang was, looking like it was about to attack someone.
Lin Yue's eyes flashed. How dare such a little thing act so rudely in front of her? It was really out of her control.
"brush."
The snake split into two sections, the head flew out directly, and the body fell directly to the ground.
"ah!"
Lin Lang took several steps back, covered his mouth and screamed, obviously frightened.
"What are you afraid of? This is a rat snake. I'll stew it tonight. Hahaha!"
Lin Yue held the snake in one hand and said in a domineering tone that she wanted to stew it, which scared the people around and also made the troublemaker Cheng Lei shrink his neck. It was a warning that was not insignificant!
Yang Dajun's car frame happened to be in the middle of the team, and he just saw that decisive and murderous move. Just a piece of branch was enough to separate the snake's head. It turned out that she was not an ordinary woman. Fortunately, he did not cause trouble for her.
The twinkling stars and the bright moonlight illuminate the dark night, and the evening breeze blows away the fatigue of the day.
On the stove built by the Lin family, isatis root and dandelion were still bubbling. The bitter taste of these Chinese herbal medicines spread out, covering up the fragrance of the snake soup and also putting off those prying eyes.
"Sister Yue, can this really cure a fever?"
Lin Hongyuan was still very skeptical. Apart from the eldest grandson, who he paid some attention to, he had no idea what the other children in the family were like.
I was already surprised that my niece went alone to bribe the officials yesterday. Now she knows about herbs and what can cure fever?
This was beyond his understanding of women.
"Don't worry, uncle. I love reading all kinds of books and helping out at the pharmacy. I know all the medicinal properties of these herbs. It's a pity that I was on the road so short that I couldn't gather a complete set of medicine."
Lin Yue didn't blush or feel nervous, after all, this was the original owner's real life. As for knowing these medicinal herbs, this was the result based on the memories of the two.
Mrs. Min trusted her daughter very much and was feeding her grandson a bowl of dandelion water.
Lin Hongyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's drink it. Let's each take a sip."
A cold can kill a person. If you don’t have a doctor, try to avoid fever or colds!
Thousands of miles away in Kyoto, Zheng Mansion.
There were white silk cloths and lanterns hanging, and only a few cries could be heard.
"My son, why did you abandon mother and father and go away so early? How can I live?
"Boo, boo, boo, you're only a teenager, what bitch is so cruel and isn't afraid of going to hell, boo!"
When Zheng's mother saw her husband coming back with a gloomy face, she hurried to greet him.
"Husband, have you found out who killed my Xiao'er?"
Zheng Xiao's father thought about the files he had seen before, and he could no longer suppress the anger on his face.
"Pah, you've spoiled me and made me a good son. Now my Zheng family has lost all face."
Zheng Xiaoniang was slapped in the face and bleeding from the corner of her mouth. She was completely confused. Why did this happen?
Following behind, Zheng Xiaodie's attendants had already cleared the area, leaving only two people inside.
“Your good son wanted to teach his fiancée a lesson for the daughter of a pariah he met outside.
He went there, but he also had someone set him up, and he was molested to death by thirty men, and it was recorded in the files of the county government. Just because you went to look for people on a large scale, now most of Kyoto knows about this beast. How can we, the Zheng family, gain a foothold in Kyoto?
By the way, since the daughter of that untouchable is deeply in love with my son, let’s arrange a ghost marriage for them!”
Zheng Xiao's father threw away his sleeves and left angrily. What he said made Zheng Xiao's mother's heart sink to the bottom.
The woman who hoped to marry into a wealthy family was thrown in front of the coffin in a miserable state. No matter how she struggled or begged, she could not escape the fate of being married to a ghost.
