141 The Herbs Are Glowing
In the end, Mo Ruyue went to wash up and change her clothes. Then, she brought Si Bao to the kitchen to prepare a meal. Now, whenever Mo Ruyue cooked, she would bring Si Bao along. He was a man who aspired to be the best chef in the world.
Todayâs ingredients were still fresh wild game and wild vegetables. Because she had brought Si Bao with her and there was not enough time, Mo Ruyue did not choose to make soup this time. Instead, she chose the convenient and quick spinach and egg soup.
There were two yellow sheep in todayâs game. Mo Ruyue kept a hind leg and two large tendrils, and let her put the rest in the large refrigerator in the space. She was going to take them out to melt before dawn the next day.
The two hard dishes for lunch were lamb with fried green onions and roasted lamb legs. In addition, she had prepared some vegetables dipped in sauce, which could relieve the greasy taste of the meat and stimulate the appetite.
Once again, Du Zhonghengâs mouth was filled with the fragrance of the food. He almost forgot the proper table manners. Todayâs meat and dishes had a different taste compared to yesterdayâs, but the similarity was that they both made people want to swallow their tongues.
The afternoon classes ended very early, mainly to give Du Zhongheng enough time to return to the city.
It was summer now, so the sky would turn dark very late. However, in winter, the sky would turn dark very early, and it would be very unsafe to set off at that time.
Before Du Zhongheng left, he was secretly looking forward to it. Perhaps this time, Mo Ruyue would also give him some other game. Although he knew that the two meat dishes had been eaten clean, what if there was a surprise?
However, this surprise didnât come true in the end. After Mo Ruyue finished these two meat dishes, she immediately started eating and didnât prepare anything else.
After sending Du Zhongheng off, Mo Ruyue returned to the courtyard. In the following time, she had to quickly deal with the medicinal herbs she had picked so that when she went to Huichun Hall tomorrow, she could also find the old imperial doctor to ask for the appropriate channels and inquire about the prices of the more rare medicinal herbs before slowly selling them.
...
She was very thoughtful. If she took out all the rare herbs at once, she would definitely make a fortune in an instant, but it would also bring her endless trouble.
In any case, the money she had now and the money she could earn in Huichun Hall later were enough for her use. For the time being, she would observe the price and market first, and then decide after she had a clear understanding of the situation.
âManman, come here. Iâve picked a lot of good herbs today. Iâll tell you about them.â
Mo Ruyue waved at Tang Tang, signaling her to come to her side.
âMother, these herbs look so strange. They donât seem to be the same as the ones I saw before.â
Tang Tang tilted her head and looked at the herbs in Mo Ruyueâs hands. Her big eyes were full of doubt.
âOh? How different? Werenât there many strange herbs in the past?â
Mo Ruyue knew that Tang Tang was extremely talented in the field of medicine. She only needed to see all the medicinal herbs once and she could remember all their looks, effects, and characteristics. She also had her own opinions when preparing the medicine.
âHmm, I canât tell you. I just feel that⦠These herbs seem to be glowing,â
âGlowing? Tang Tang, youâ¦â
Mo Ruyue was about to clarify when San Bao came over and took a look at the herbs in front of them. She asked doubtfully, âTang Tang, are you seeing things? Whereâs the light? â
...
She then turned to Er Bao who was beside her and said, âSecond brother, can you see that the herb is glowing?â
âNo, how can herbs glow? â
Er Bao shook his head. He did not expect that their words would make Tang Tang anxious.
âSecond brother, third brother, you donât believe me! The herbs are really glowing, like fireflies. Iâm not lying!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After she finished speaking, she looked at Mo Ruyue again and said with eyes full of grievance, âMother, Iâm really not lying to you. Mother and Sir have said that a good person is honest and doesnât lie. I wonât lie!â
Of course, Mo Ruyue knew that Tang Tang wasnât lying because she could also see that the herbs were giving off a very faint glow, like fireflies glowing in the mist. It was so blurry that it seemed unreal.
âMother believes you. The herbs are indeed glowing.â
Mo Ruyue gave an affirmative answer, which made Tang Tangâs big eyes light up. Even her slightly hunched shoulders straightened up.
She raised her little chin and proudly looked at her two stunned brothers. She said proudly, âSee, Mother already said that the herbs are glowing, but you guys still donât believe me, Hmph!â
âThatâs impossible, Mother. Could it be that thereâs something wrong with my and Qinghongâs eyes? We really didnât see the herbs glowing!â
Er Bao was also a little anxious. He looked at San Bao, who was also in a daze, and then at Tang Tang, who was very proud. He felt dizzy and uncertain for a moment.
...
âTang Tang really didnât lie, because Mother can see the light of the herbs too. Maybe itâs because Tang Tang has a talent and affinity for herbs that you donât have, so you canât see what she can see.â
Mo Ruyue thought of the most suitable reason. The two babies heard it and thought it made sense. They nodded and said, âOh, I see. Little sister is indeed much better than us in recognizing medicinal herbs.â
San Bao knew that Tang Tang was going to be a great Divine Doctor in the future. In order to become a Divine Doctor, she must have outstanding abilities. This should be Tang Tangâs outstanding abilities.
It was free time now. The boys rarely got to relax, so they ran off to play. Tang Tang stuck to Mo Ruyueâs side and continued to distinguish the medicinal herbs with her.
âMother, why canât my brothers see the light of the herbs? They arenât that fast, but they arenât slow either.â
Tang Tang was still thinking about the question just now. Her four brothers were all very smart people. They just felt that it was enough to have her to study medicine. They all had their own interests, so they did not take identifying medicinal herbs seriously.
âTang Tang, promise mother that you can only say such things in front of your family in the future. Everyone else is an outsider. You canât even say a word about it, understand?â
Mo Ruyue did not answer Tang Tangâs question. Instead, she made a request to her first.
âMother, I donât understand. If I didnât say it just now, I wouldnât know that other people couldnât see the medicinal herbs glowing.â
Tang Tang knew that what her mother said must be for her own good. However, she could not tell what she should say and what she should not say. Just as she said, if she did not say it, how would she know that others did not know?
Mo Ruyue was also stunned by the question. For a moment, she didnât know how to start explaining to her.
...
âDo you still remember the herbs we used to recognize? Will those herbs also emit a faint light like these?â She thought for a moment and asked Tang Tang.
âNo, Iâve never seen such a herb before.â
âThen when you followed mother into the mountains, or when you went to the city, did you see such a herb or plant? â
She asked another question.
âNo, I donât.â
Tang Tang shook her head again. She seemed to have understood what her mother wanted to tell her.
