The night was as dark as ink, spreading silently. A candlelight swayed in the night wind, outlining a soft golden edge for Ran He's back.

She followed the carefully planned steps, weighing them one by one and carefully adding them into the ancient clay pot. Each step contained her admiration and passion for the art of healing.

As the medicinal herbs and food ingredients merged, a complex and peculiar scent gradually filled the air, which was somewhat bitter but mixed with a subtle stench of corruption, as if it was the leakage of some ancient secret deep in nature.

Fortunately, Ran He wisely chose to work outdoors, otherwise the strong smell would be enough to make the children in the house frown and cover their noses, making it unbearable.

After the pungent smell dissipated a little, Ran He held a long spoon, with a look of trepidation and anticipation on his face, gently scooped up a spoonful of the medicinal food he had carefully prepared, and slowly put it into his mouth.

Unexpectedly, the medicinal food that was thought to be extremely bitter was unexpectedly smooth, without any sense of incongruity. On the contrary, a faint herbal fragrance accompanied by a slight sweetness spread on the tip of the tongue, which made Ran He feel inexplicably surprised.

After swallowing the medicinal food, a warm current slowly flowed from his throat and spread to every corner of his body. Ran He couldn't help but sigh softly, feeling unprecedented physical and mental relaxation.

This medicinal food not only has a unique taste, but also seems to contain a magical power. Even a small taste is enough to make people feel refreshed. She firmly believes that if it is used to treat Mo Changfeng and Goudanniang's illnesses, recovery will be just around the corner.

Heaven will reward your hard work.

Although the process of developing medicinal food is long and tedious, seeing the results in front of us, all the efforts and waiting seem to be worth it.

Even though the formula needs to be continuously adjusted according to the progression of the disease in the future, Ran He's heart is full of hope and confidence.

After carefully covering the pottery jar, Ran He walked into the house with a heart filled with satisfaction and joy, ready to have a good night's sleep in preparation for tomorrow.

When the first ray of morning light broke, the children were still immersed in sweet dreams. Ran He had already got up quietly and cooked two eggs for each child as breakfast. Although simple, it was full of mother's affection.

Time was running out, so she had to make such simple arrangements.

Afterwards, Ran He brought out the pot of medicinal food that she had cooked all night and had put so much effort into. She planned to ask Goudan's mother to try it first. If the effect was obvious, she would prepare more for her.

However, when she approached the door of Goudan's house, she found it half-closed. Could it be that Goudan couldn't wait to start his busy day and share the work for the family? Thinking of this little boy who was so sensible and went out to look for mushrooms and fungus early in the morning, Ran He couldn't help but feel a little pity in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, I'm Ran He, I'm here to see you."

Ran He called Goudan's mother by the villagers' usual name. They were of similar age, so the feeling of closeness came naturally.

Inside the house, when Goudan's mother heard that it was Ran He who came, she quickly responded, and her heart was immediately filled with gratitude for the kind-hearted woman's rescue.

She hurried to find the teapot and pour a cup of tea for the guest to quench his thirst.

"Stop busying yourself, sister-in-law. I just developed a new medicinal food and would like to invite you to try it."

There was anticipation and excitement in Ran He's eyes. She knew very well that although Goudanniang and Mo Changfeng's illnesses were not exactly the same, the root cause was that they were both weak physical illnesses, and their treatment ideas could learn from each other.

After hearing this, Goudan's mother's smile froze a little, and her heart was full of entanglement and rejection: "Hey, I'm really embarrassed for you to say that. I usually receive a lot of help from your family, and now I have to accept your medicine. I feel so guilty, how dare I cause more trouble."

Ran He quickly comforted him, "Please don't say that. This medicinal food was originally prepared to help others. Many precious medicinal materials are added to it. It will only benefit you if you drink it. If it really makes your body better, Xiaogoudan can also reduce some of the burden. Why not do it?"

These words were like a gentle spring breeze, gently blowing away the haze that had accumulated in Goudan's mother's heart for a long time.

Her eyes sparkled with a desire for the outside world, a yearning for a healthy body, and a deep maternal love for her little puppy to be able to read books and immerse himself in the ocean of knowledge.

Under the double oppression of poverty and illness, her face looked particularly haggard, but at this moment, a ray of hope was jumping in her eyes, like a candle in the dark night, weak but unwavering.

Every word of Ran He was like a gentle rain that moistened her heart.

Goudan's mother's eyes couldn't help but become moist, tears welled up in her eyes but didn't fall.

She looked at the women around her who were busy or chatting, and felt a surge of sadness and self-blame in her heart - why couldn't she be as strong as them and support the family?

Ran He's generosity and kindness made her feel unprecedented warmth in that moment. It was a spiritual support that went beyond material assistance, illuminating the way forward and allowing her to ease the heaviness of life.

Goudan's mother's gratitude weighed heavily on her chest, almost too heavy to bear.

The chillness of the past days seemed to be completely dispelled at this moment. What Ran He gave her was not only help in life, but also a revelation of hope, telling her that even in the most difficult times, there is still true love and light in the world.

When Goudan's mother heard that Ran He asked her and Goudan to help, an unprecedented enthusiasm ignited in her heart.

The feeling of being able to give back to others with her own hands, rather than just receiving gifts, filled her with strength.

There was determination in her tone, which was not only an affirmation of Ran He's promise, but also an expectation for her own future.

Taking the medicinal food handed to her by Ran He, Goudan's mother drank it all in one gulp with almost a pious attitude.

The taste of medicinal food is sweet with a hint of medicinal fragrance. Not only is it not bitter at all, but it makes people feel a warm current sliding into the throat, slowly permeating the whole body, bringing an unprecedented comfort.

She felt like she was bathing in the warm spring sun. Even her every breath became smoother and all the fatigue in her body seemed to be swept away.

Thanks to Ran He's meticulousness, this bowl of medicinal food not only has significant therapeutic effects, but also tastes extremely pleasant.

She specially added spiritual spring water from the deep mountains to make the medicinal food mild yet effective, nourishing the body while pleasing the soul.

Goudan's mother's eyes became brighter due to the effect of the medicinal food. She was amazed at this miraculous transformation, and her gratitude grew stronger.

Ran He's generosity and wisdom made her admire him spontaneously.

In this world, it is rare to meet someone who is willing to selflessly share such precious medicinal food.

When Ran He was about to leave and go to the back mountain to continue her work, the background of the village after the rain unfolded like a painting.

The back mountain has become a vibrant stage. After being washed by raindrops, mushrooms and fungus are like treasures of the earth.
