Chapter 219 Playing with Medicinal Herbs
After washing up, she went to the front yard to have breakfast with her family. After breakfast, Yun Xi sent Ren Dong and Lu Pei Xiu to the mountain to dig herbs, and she returned to the yard to write a plan.
There is a lot of land in the space now, and she has wanted to grow medicine for a long time, but she has never had the seeds.
I had originally planned to go to the mountains to dig herbs when I had some free time. But now that I have Honeysuckle, who knows medicine, I don't have to do it myself, and I can arrange it right away.
If Lu Peixiu has nothing else to do, she can be arranged to take care of it as well.
And she herself also has to put the matter of the women's college on the agenda.
The seeds for early rice planting were still soaking these past two days, and she didn't need to plow the soil, so she had just enough time to write a plan for the women's college.
Yun Xi takes this matter very seriously. If it is done well, it will be beneficial for both the improvement of women's status and her reputation as the initiator.
I stayed in the room writing and drawing for two days and finally wrote a plan that I was quite satisfied with.
He folded the plan and handed it to Qingluan, and instructed, "Go to the palace and give this to the prince."
Qingluan took the response and went straight to the palace.
Only at this time did Yun Xi have time to look at the herbs that Jindong and Lu Peixiu had dug up in the past two days.
She had told Honeysuckle that as long as it was a herb, it could be dug up with the roots, whether it was mature or not.
The honeysuckle really lived up to our expectations and we collected quite a few kinds of medicinal herbs, all of which were dug up with their roots without any damage.
What made Yunxi happy the most was that among these herbs, there was also angelica. This medicine has many functions such as nourishing blood, promoting blood circulation and regulating menstruation, and is one of the commonly used medicinal materials in traditional Chinese medicine.
In addition, there is also Astragalus, known as the "king of herbs", which is a good medicine for replenishing qi and strengthening the exterior, diuresis and swelling. Winter is the harvest season, and Honeysuckle and Lv Peixiu also dug up a lot.
Ba La Ba La, there are also Cassia seed, Isatis root, etc.
Yun Xi actually saw Codonopsis pilosula, which is a relatively high-quality medicinal material with the effects of tonifying the middle and replenishing Qi, nourishing blood and promoting body fluid.
After taking a look, I found that there was only this one Codonopsis pilosula plant, and it was not very big, probably less than ten years old.
Yun Xi guessed that there should still be some Codonopsis pilosula on the mountain, but they were not very old. Honeysuckle was reluctant to dig more.
She asked, "Is there still any Codonopsis pilosula left on the mountain?"
Sure enough, Honeysuckle replied that there were more. She didn't know what Yunxi wanted to do with these herbs. Some were still in the growth stage, so she didn't pick more.
"If there is any, dig some more and bring them back. The same goes for other commonly used medicinal herbs."
"Yes."
Although Rendong was confused, since Yunxi had spoken, she had to do it without asking why.
When they were first trained, the first thing they learned was to obey the orders of their master. This time, the prince sent them here and repeatedly told them that Yunxi would be their only master from now on and they only had to obey her.
So even if she didn't understand Yun Xi's orders, as long as it didn't endanger her master's safety, she wouldn't say anything and would just follow the orders.
Yun Xi was very satisfied with them for this. She was a person with secrets, and they would be by her side all the time. With their intelligence, they would definitely be able to discover some abnormalities in her.
It's good to just stop talking and do things quietly.
The two maids and Nanny Lin kept their mouths shut, but Lu Peixiu was extremely curious. When Yunxi was checking the herbs, she stared at Yunxi.
"What do you need so many herbs for?"
Yun Xi didn't even glance at her and said casually, "Play."
Lu Peixiu took it seriously and was incredulous. "Why are you so weird? You're actually playing with medicinal herbs?"
Yun Xi picked up the Codonopsis pilosula and put it close to her nose to smell it. "It's none of your business."
Lu Peixiu curled her lips, "Aren't you just messing with me? Do you know how hard it is to go up the mountain to dig for herbs? My hands and feet are all worn out, and my clothes are torn. I worked so hard with Honeysuckle to collect these herbs, and you actually want to play around. This is really unreasonable."
Yun Xi looked up at her jumping up and down, and said calmly, "Why? Are you not convinced?"
Lu Peixiu glared at Yun Xi angrily, obviously not convinced.
Yun Xi smiled maliciously, "Don't forget why you came to me. You have to hold it in even if you are not convinced."
