Chapter 355: I took these two Wuchang fish back and ate them myself(1/2)

 At least, Ling Xiaoru likes it very much.

When she saw Li You blowing a dandelion pom-pom into the sky, she wanted to blow one herself.

Are there any other dandelions around?

Soon, I found it. There was another one not far away.

Ling Xiaoru walked over and pulled up the dandelion.

Then put the pom-pom to your mouth and blow hard, the pom-pom will spread out and the seeds will fly all over the sky.

"It's so beautiful!" Ling Xiaoru was very happy.

Li You was also very happy. After all the dandelion seeds disappeared from sight, the two of them continued to search.

See if you can find another wild vegetable?

Not long after, Ling Xiaoru was very happy and said loudly: "Boss, come here quickly, there is a big patch of Prunella vulgaris here."

Prunella vulgaris?

Li You was overjoyed and walked quickly towards Ling Xiaoru and said, "Let me take a look."

When I got closer, I saw that there was indeed a large patch of Prunella vulgaris.

Prunella vulgaris is a good thing. Although it is not as well-known as dandelion, its value is even greater.

"Xia Sangju Granules" is a commonly used medicine for wind-heat colds, dizziness, tinnitus, and sore throat. The "Xia" in it refers to Prunella vulgaris.

As for "mulberry", it refers to mulberry leaves. And "chrysanthemum" refers to wild chrysanthemums.

Xia Sangju granules are processed from these three plants.

"I remember that in the past, in June and July every year, when the ears of Prunella vulgaris began to turn brown, many people in the village would start to harvest Prunella vulgaris. Then they would dry it and sell it for money." Ling Xiaoru said.

Li You nodded and said, "That's true. Prunella vulgaris is a kind of medicinal material. Some people in our village used to harvest prunella vulgaris. They would sell it for money and keep some for their own use. But no one seems to be harvesting it now.



Ling Xiaoru smiled and said: "Because everyone's living conditions are better now. We no longer need to work hard to collect Prunella vulgaris and sell it for money. No one in our village harvests it now. At most, we can only collect a small amount and take it back for our own use. Use Prunella vulgaris.

Come boil water and drink it, it seems to be very good for the body."

Li You said: "It doesn't seem like it, but it is indeed very good for the body. It can clear the liver and relieve fire. It is very good for the liver and can nourish the liver."

"That's it!" Ling Xiaoru said, "Then I'll get some and dry them in the sun, and then use them to boil water for drinking."

Li You smiled and said: "It's absolutely okay! These Prunella vulgaris are basically ready to be harvested now."

Prunella vulgaris is also called wheatgrass. Because its ears look like wheat ears. The reason why it is called prunella vulgaris is because this grass will wither in summer.

However, it’s not really withered.

Instead, its fruit ears and the entire plant will slowly turn brown in summer, looking like withered.

Before, both the fruit ears and the plant were green, and the flowers were purple. They were quite beautiful.

Now this piece of Prunella vulgaris has entered the stage of turning brown. If you want to pick it, it is already ready.

Ling Xiaoru said: "Then boss, you can also pick some and take them back. Let's all pick some and take them back. How about that?"

Li You nodded, "Okay! Take it back and dry it, then use it to make tea and drink it as herbal tea."

Ling Xiaoru added: "I remember that before they got old, the stems and leaves were edible. So, they can also be regarded as a kind of wild vegetables, right?"

Li You nodded, "Yes, indeed. In spring, their stems and leaves are used as ingredients. They can be eaten cold, cooked in soup, or porridge. Eating them is also very good for the body."

Ling Xiaoru was very happy because it meant that she had discovered another wild vegetable.

It’s just a pity that the season has passed and I can’t eat it anymore.

However, although you can no longer eat it, you can harvest the ears.

So, now is still a good season.

"Boss, let's start picking fruit."

"Okay. Take it off."

Two people started picking fruit.

Just pick the fruit ears, there is no need to uproot the entire plant. These plants will grow new fruit ears next year.

Because Prunella vulgaris is a perennial plant.

After Li You picked the first ear of fruit.

"Side mission 'Wild vegetables are also a kind of food', complete the fourth type of wild vegetables: Prunella vulgaris!"

Prunella vulgaris is indeed a kind of wild vegetable.

This leaves only the last option. This task is indeed not difficult.

After the two people had picked enough prunella vulgaris ears, Li You found two more sprigs of prunella vulgaris and tied the ears into two bundles.

They don't have bags, so they can only use this method.

One bundle per person, which is very convenient.

After that, Li You plans to work hard to find the last wild vegetable.

But unfortunately, after searching for a while, neither Li You nor Ling Xiaoru found anything new.

And the time has already reached five o'clock in the afternoon.

Li You decided not to look for it for the time being and returned to the hotel first.

We have to do business in the evening.

Besides, Ling Xiaoru came back after such a long time, so she should be allowed to go back as soon as possible.

The last kind of wild vegetables will be found after returning to the hotel.

Just look around the hotel and you should be able to find it.

So, Li You said to Ling Xiaoru: "It's getting late. Today's wild vegetables are found here. I'm going back to the hotel, so you should go back early."

Ling Xiaoru looked at the time and nodded: "That's fine. There should be almost all guests arriving in the hotel now."

The two people took the wild vegetables and returned to the place where the motorcycles and battery cars were parked.

Li You put all four kinds of wild vegetables, including rhizome, plantain, dandelion and prunella vulgaris, into the storage basket on the rear frame of the motorcycle.

Ling Xiaoru has three kinds of wild vegetables: plantain, dandelion, and prunella vulgaris. She puts them in the trunk of the battery car.

"Let's go, boss, I'll take you to the entrance of the village." Ling Xiaoru said.

Li You could find it by himself. However, Ling Xiaoru wanted to give it away, but he did not refuse and said, "Thank you then. Let's go."

The two of them got on the bike and set off.

Soon we arrived at the entrance of the village.

Li You said: "Okay, I'm leaving. You should go back early."

Ling Xiaoru said: "Okay. You haven't finished visiting our village this time. Come and play again next time."

Li You nodded, "Okay. Definitely."

Then, as the two people said "goodbye", they left separately.

……

Li You didn't delay on the way, but went straight back to the hotel.

Sure enough, guests have already arrived. They are playing games in the game console area, or chatting with each other.

After seeing Li You come back, all the guests chatting gathered around him.

"Boss, what are you doing here?"

Then quickly, I saw clearly what was in the storage box on the motorcycle.

"Zheergen? Is the boss looking for Zheergen? This must be wild Zheergen. I can smell the fragrance from so far away."

"What is this? Plantain? It looks like plantain. Boss, what are you doing with plantain?"

"There are also dandelions. Is this a dandelion? Dandelions are edible. However, this is only one plant, isn't it too little?"

"This should be the ear of Prunella vulgaris, right? It's a good thing. Use it to boil water or make tea to drink. It clears the liver and relieves fire, which is very good for the liver."

"Boss, are you looking for weeds?"

"..."

There's nothing wrong with what the guests said. These are indeed weeds. Including the rhizome root is actually a kind of weed.

However, Li You pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "What wild grass? Wild vegetables, wild vegetables, these are wild vegetables, not weeds. Wild vegetables are also ingredients. So, I went to look for ingredients."

This statement made all the guests laugh.

There's nothing wrong with what the boss said...
