Chapter 19

Mrs. Zhao had lost face and didn’t want to go to work.

Captain: Why, you are also young and immature?

You lost face because you brought it upon yourself. Even without face, you still have to work for me.

And Zhao Huoyan, you come to work too.

You still think other people’s children are lazy, but I think your children are the laziest!

Just like that, the three members of the Zhao family went to work together. With the team leader watching, they couldn’t cause any trouble.

Lin Qing continued to go up the mountain to collect herbs.

Over twenty days, Lin’s family’s courtyard had accumulated a pile of herbs.

Lin Dahua squatted under the eaves, lost in thought.

Everyone has been collecting herbs in the mountains, how come there’s such a big difference?

Wang Lanfeng walked out of the house and looked at the somewhat gloomy sky. “It’s strange. When our daughter goes to the mountains to collect herbs, it doesn’t rain. When she doesn’t go, it rains.”

Lin Dahua also looked up at the sky and realized.

He had gone to the mountains ten times, and it rained five times. This is the difference.

As an old couple, Wang Lanfeng knew how to be hurtful. “Our daughter collects a month’s worth of herbs in the mountains, which is equivalent to your several months’ worth. I don’t understand, what did you do in the mountains?”

Lin Dahua: “…”

How could he know that Lin Qing had a cheat code. She went into the mountains and was like a bee, quickly finding herbs.

Her speed of collecting herbs was naturally very fast.

With the space to help her, Lin’s family’s courtyard wouldn’t be filled with herbs. What else would she need a cheat code for?

Forget it!

Not only was Lin’s family’s courtyard filled with the fragrance of herbs, but the space was also filled with a rich aroma of herbs.

Through her research, Lin Qing discovered that seeds soaked in well water had stronger vitality.

Lin Qing used the spring water to first ripen all the transplanted herbs. When they produced seeds, she soaked them in well water and then planted them.

After repeating this several times, she already had a large field of herbs.

To the outside world, she seemed to have only collected a few common herbs. But in fact, she had collected dozens of herbs in this month.

There was Angelica dahurica, which dispels wind and relieves the exterior, as well as Gentiana scabra, which clears heat and removes fire. There was also Cirsium japonicum and Cirsium segetum, which cool blood, stop bleeding, and dissipate blood stasis. She even collected a lot of herbs for treating yin deficiency, strengthening yang, and impotence.

In short, she had all kinds of herbs in her herb field, from tonifying yin and yang to treating colds and fevers.

The system also specifically tested the herbs and found that the herbs grown from seeds soaked in well water had greatly increased medicinal effects.

Of course, the toxicity also increased, and it required several more steps to process them.

According to the analysis of System 118, after several generations of propagation and evolution, the medicinal plants may gradually increase their medicinal properties and decrease their toxicity.

Lin Qing sighed. She hoped her herb field wouldn’t backfire.

System 118: That’s uncertain.

System 118 had some tricks up its sleeve. It could not only test the medicinal effects and toxicity of medicinal plants, but it could also give some extra rewards.

Whatever Lin Qing needed, it would take it out to tempt her.

For example, as long as Lin Qing and Cheng Luo got engaged, it would reward Lin Qing with a set of equipment needed for processing herbs.

Lin Qing really wanted to applaud System 118.

No one knew what she had experienced when this system was being a dog.

In a month, it had pointed out the way several times, eventually pointing to a buzzing beehive on a tree.

Only a system could do such a wicked thing.

It also kindly rewarded a set of beekeeping clothes.

Lin Qing’s space not only planted herbs but also a large field of flowers.

You ask how the flower field came about? She ran and spun around on the grass with a bag of flower seeds.

With every turn, countless flower seeds were scattered on the grass.

In the vast grassland, she was like a sunflower that had spent all its fortune.

When she finally had some free time, Lin Qing was confused for a moment. What’s going on? Should she inherit her father’s business and become a barefoot doctor?

This is not the plan.

Lin Dahua’s medical skills were mediocre. He could only treat minor illnesses like headaches and colds.

Besides not having a son, which made people laugh at him, he was still respected by the villagers in other aspects.

So, the Lin family’s final outcome shouldn’t be like that.

On August 19th, Lin Qing went to school in the morning dew.

When she arrived at school, the students who lived in the county were almost all there.

There were about a hundred students in their graduating class. The girls gathered together, and the boys gathered together.

Lin Qing’s deskmate, the thin and somewhat malnourished girl, didn’t take the college entrance exam.

She heard that she was going to get married after graduation. It was already good enough that her family let her go to high school.

As soon as Lin Qing entered the schoolyard, a girl in a floral dress and a plain white shirt waved to her. “Lin Qing, here.”

The girl’s name was Zhu Qing, and she was Lin Qing’s classmate.

Zhu Qing was outgoing and lively. She had a good relationship with everyone and was a natural social butterfly.

Lin Qing saw that there were several female classmates from other classes in her group.

Young girls gathered together, and there was a kind of vitality. Lin Qing also liked this atmosphere.

So, she joined them.

As soon as she got closer, Zhu Qing circled around her. “Wow, you look like you’ve lost a lot of weight and changed a lot.”

In the past month, Lin Qing had been climbing trees like a monkey, and her body had become more robust and toned.

Although she wasn’t fat before, she was still different from now.

She had also become taller.

Actually, after drinking the well water from the space, her five senses had become much sharper, and she had become much stronger.

Because she was naturally fair, she didn’t have any changes in skin color after drinking the spiritual spring water.

Zhu Qing was curious and leaned in to look at Lin Qing’s face. It was smaller.

She wanted to use her own palm to compare, to see if it was as big as her palm.

Lin Qing laughed and stepped back. “Don’t stare at me like that, it’s embarrassing.”

“Your face is rosy and white. It doesn’t look like you’ve lost weight from hunger. Tell me, what kind of elixir have you been taking for a month?” Zhu Qing joked.

Several other female classmates were also curious.

Lin Qing told the truth. “What can I do? I’ve been collecting herbs at home for a month. Of course, I’ve lost weight.”

One female classmate asked in surprise, “How come you didn’t get tanned after being outside for a month?”

“She can’t get tanned.” Zhu Qing knew this.

During the busy farming season, the school would organize students to go to the countryside.

After a week, everyone in the class would be as black as coal.

But there were always one or two students who wouldn’t get tanned no matter how much they were exposed to the sun. Lin Qing was one of them.

Hearing Zhu Qing say this, the other female classmates were envious.

Lin Qing smiled perfunctorily. “In the mountains, you don’t get much sun.”

With Zhu Qing, a little sun, around, everyone seemed to have come out of the anxiety of waiting for their college entrance exam results.

The topics were not about floral dresses, but about headbands, or movies.

The girls were chatting happily, and they almost forgot about the main thing.

The hot weather didn’t seem so stuffy anymore.

They had been cooped up for a month, and finally got to have some fun. Zhu Qing’s mouth didn’t stop.

After chatting for a while, Zhu Qing nudged Lin Qing with her shoulder.

She was being sneaky.

“Have you received any new headbands or scarves recently? If you don’t like them, hehehe”
