Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu Dong and Lu Xi, who had just recovered from the shock, were shocked once again...
Chen Jin had also forgotten to howl out loud. He obediently knelt on the concrete floor, as if he was watching a show.
This was indeed a show that no one had expected.
Someone actually chased away the famous Lu family members in the capital because they wanted to farm?,
As expected, when the forest grew big, there were all kinds of birds in the forest!
Was the young master of the Lu family not as important as a few small tomatoes and broken plots of land?!
However, Lu Qi was very calm. He did not respond to Cheng Ling. Instead, he changed the topic, “Are these plants all planted by Miss Cheng?”
Cheng Ling shook her head, “No.”
Xie Ying had planted a few green onions in the corner, so not all of them were planted by her. There was nothing wrong with such an answer, Cheng Ling thought confidently.
“That’s a pity. I have a precious seed in my hand. I heard that it can bloom in seven days. The flowers are purple-red and they give off a peculiar fragrance. It’s edible and can be used as medicine...”
Lu Qi was talking nonsense with a straight face, but Cheng Ling actually jumped into the trap that was tailor-made for her.
“Do you have any requirements for the nursery? Do you want uncultivated land or cultivated land? Is the soil environment to be cool and humid or dry? Do you need to plant it in a greenhouse? Any requirements for the temperature?”
Talking about this, Cheng Ling spoke with confidence. She did not notice that she herself had exposed something until she saw the faint smile on Lu Qi’s face.
It looked like she had been tricked.
Hearing Cheng Ling’s series of questions that only professionals would ask, the smile in his eyes deepened.
Very good.
Just as he had guessed, Cheng Ling was very proficient in all these.
An 18 year old girl, who was despised by the Cheng family and ridiculed by many families as a fake daughter, was actually farming secretly?
“I wonder if I have the honor of visiting this place?”
Lu Dong and Lu Xi looked around. Other than mountains, this place was farmland. What was there to visit?
Had the young master been blown silly by the wind in the middle of the night?
Thinking of this, Lu Dong quickly took out his phone and sent a message to Lu Xiu. “Young Master Lu, young lord seems to be... sick!”
“What do you want to visit?” Cheng Ling also asked with vigilance.
“Of course it’s this land. It looks like there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers here.”
After saying that, Lu Qi walked along the square field with his long legs. This field was not small. As Lu Qi?was walking, he pointed out many valuable medicinal herbs.
“Ginseng, Polygonum Multiflorum, Jin Buhuan...”
The field at the back of the mountain had a wonderful scene. The tall man in the lead was walking along the field, pointing at the field and explaining as he was walking. The men behind him were following closely. From time to time, they squatted down to look and touch the plants curiously.
And the tall and thin girl would slap the men’s hands like a mother scolding her child.
“What is Jin Buhuan?” Lu Xi asked in confusion.
“Tian Qi.”
“Tian Qi.”
A clear female voice and a gentle male voice sounded at the same time, overlapping each other.
Lu Qi looked at Cheng Ling with a faint smile,”Jin Buhuan is what we often call Tian Qi today. It tastes slightly sweet and bitter, like ginseng.”
“I see.” Lu Xi looked like he had not seen the world before. “Then what is the use of Jin Buhuan?”
“I’m afraid that Miss Cheng will have to answer this question. I’ll be seen showing off my skills in front of this expert.”
“In the Qing dynasty, Zhao Xuemin wrote ‘The Compendium of Materia Medica is Precious’, in which states that ginseng is the best for replenishing qi, and Sanqi for replenishing blood. The taste is the same, and the effectiveness is also the same. Therefore it was said that ginseng and Sanqi are the most precious of all Chinese medicines.”
Cheng Ling blurted out. She had started reciting these things when she was young and had long memorized them.
Seeing that Lu Qi was about to walk forward, Cheng Ling walked up to him and stopped him.
“Mr. Lu, it’s late and cold now...” Cheng Ling looked at Lu Qi’s pale face. “It’s better not to stay out for too long. The cold air is not good for you.”
She had never been a busybody, but after knowing that this person was unwell, she could not help but remind him again and again.
She felt that Lu Qi was very familiar to her. It was as if they had known each other for a long time, and they had looked at each other long ago.
Was it an illusion?
“Miss Cheng, you can just call me Lu Qi.”
“To tell you the truth, many years ago, I was poisoned by a strange poison.. For many years, I have been seeking medical treatment everywhere, but I have not found a way to cure it. Miss Cheng is proficient in medicine, I wonder if you can help me treat it?”
