Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 131 Xiaoshui's surprising discovery

Wang really liked her daughter acting coquettishly to her. She felt that since her daughter fell into a trap and woke up on the mountain last time, she had become more stable and sensible than before.

It had been a long time since she had acted as spoiled as she did today.

But this time she realized that her daughter was still the little girl who liked to act coquettishly.

After all, she is only eleven years old this year.

Gu Qingzhi was drying various medicinal herbs in the yard, including the Polygonum multiflorum dug today, the Astragalus membranaceus dug the day before yesterday, and some other medicinal herbs.

Taking advantage of the fine weather, she took them all out to dry in the sun so that they could be prepared later.

She usually waits for a while to collect enough herbs before preparing them.

Because the process of preparing medicinal materials is quite cumbersome.

Moreover, different types of herbs require different processing methods, and it would be too troublesome to process only a small amount of herbs.

"Sister, sister..."

At this time, Gu Xiaoshui stood at the door and called her softly.

Gu Qingzhi saw her sideways and turned back to ask, "What's wrong, Sister Shui?"

"Sister, can you come out for a moment?"

"Sure, wait a moment, I'll talk to my mother first."

After walking out of the gate, Gu Qingzhi noticed that Gu Xiaoshui was leading her towards the east. She couldn't help but feel a little curious, so she asked, "Sister Shui, where are we going?"

"Sister..." Gu Xiaoshui hesitated for a while, then looked around carefully, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no one else around.

However, she still deliberately lowered her voice and whispered softly: "Sister, I have seen the herb you mentioned at noon... that, that is called..."

Gu Qingzhi's eyes flashed with a light, and she asked, "Polygonum multiflorum?"

Gu Xiaoshui nodded timidly, "Well, sister, I just checked again, and they do look very similar, so..."

"So Sister Shui wants me to go over and take a look, right?"

Gu Xiaoshui nodded repeatedly and mustered up the courage to ask, "Sister, is it okay?"

After receiving a positive answer, Gu Qingzhi pinched her tender little face and agreed happily: "What's wrong with that? Of course you can, Sister Shui."

"Sister, I, I'm worried, if it's not..."

Gu Xiaoshui had been hesitant before. She was worried that if it was not the case, her sister might be happy for nothing, so she did not mention it at first.

Unexpectedly, Gu Qingzhi laughed heartily.

"Shui Jie'er, it's okay. Even if you find out it's not her in the end, just think of it as a stroll to relax and unwind." Gu Qingzhi gently stroked Gu Xiaoshui's hair and comforted her.

The two of them walked and talked, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the fields in the east.

Gu Qingzhi vaguely remembered that her family's farmland seemed to be in this area.

At this moment, the fields are full of lush rice, and the ears of rice are heavy and green.

However, since the rice is not yet fully mature, villagers usually come early or late to remove weeds, check water levels, catch pests, etc.

Therefore, at this point in time, there are almost no people in the fields.

Gu Xiaoshui walked straight to a small mound not far from the fields. The terrain here was slightly higher and he could overlook the surrounding scenery.

Gu Qingzhi looked closely and saw a large patch of familiar leaves growing on the ground.

Isn't this exactly the same kind they dug out in the mountains this morning?

Gu Qingzhi suppressed the excitement surging in her heart, walked forward hurriedly, then slowly squatted down, carefully looking at the leaf in front of her, wanting to confirm whether it was indeed that one.

After a long and careful observation, Gu Qingzhi finally stood up, with an unconcealable joy on her face, and nodded gently to Gu Xiaoshui behind her: "Sister Shui, it is definitely Polygonum multiflorum!"

After receiving a positive answer, Gu Xiaoshui was extremely excited and couldn't help but cheer: "Really? Sister! It's really Polygonum multiflorum!"

During this period of time, seeing his brother and sister working tirelessly to find a way to make a living for the family, Gu Xiaoshui couldn't help feeling anxious.

The disappearance of her mother and the untimely death of her father dealt her an extremely heavy blow, making her particularly sensitive and fragile since childhood.

During these years at home, she always walked on thin ice and lived in fear.

Now, she could actually help her sister. She suddenly felt that she was not useless and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did I help my sister?" Gu Xiaoshui asked happily.

Gu Qingzhi touched her hair and praised her generously, "Yes, Sister Shui has helped me a lot!

This piece of Polygonum multiflorum is the work of Sister Shui!"

Hearing her sister's praise, Gu Xiaoshui's cheeks flushed and she smiled shyly.

Then, she raised her head again, blinking her bright and shining eyes, and said to Gu Qingzhi expectantly: "Sister, I know there are two other places where this kind of Polygonum multiflorum grows!

How about I take you to have a look..."

What, there is still one?

Gu Qingzhi was truly surprised that such a precious medicinal herb as Polygonum multiflorum had become so common during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty and could be seen everywhere!

She couldn't help but wonder why she had never noticed it before.

Come to think of it, her mother always kept a strict discipline on her and seldom allowed her to go out. Naturally, she couldn't run around and play with her brother like Shui Jie'er did.

However, even if she traveled frequently in her previous life, it would probably be of no avail.

After all, she knew nothing about various medicinal herbs at that time, let alone identifying Polygonum multiflorum.

All of this knowledge and skills were gradually acquired after obtaining the mysterious medical book.

"Okay, let's go there and take a look.

But, sister, why don't we dig up these Polygonum multiflorum first?"

Gu Xiaoshui asked with a little hesitation and confusion.

Gu Qingzhi couldn't help laughing and asked, "How can we dig with nothing in our hands?"

Seeing a trace of embarrassment on Gu Xiaoshui's face, she quickly comforted her, "Shui Jie'er, I'm not blaming you. Even if we bring tools, we can't dig rashly at this moment.

We need to find a time when no one will disturb us and come quietly to dig, understand?"

Gu Qingzhi did not explain the reasons in detail, but only mentioned them briefly.

Gu Xiaoshui nodded as if she understood, indicating that she understood and that it was not her fault: "Sister, I understand."

“Well, let’s go check out the two places you just mentioned.

Later, you can ask your brothers to come and help dig.

Don't worry, these Polygonum multiflorum can't escape. "

The country folk were unaware of their value and treated them as common weeds.

Naturally, no one comes to dig these things.
