Chapter 68 You know a lot

"If I knew it earlier, I would have come to pick it earlier." Xie Ying muttered, and then chose the heaviest and the lightest weight among the remaining blind boxes.

As for the principle, Xie Ying herself doesn't know, it's all metaphysics.

"The shopkeeper, I'll buy one too." Wei Ruo took out the silver, gave it to the shopkeeper, and then took the nearest box.

Seeing this, Xie Ying leaned close to Wei Ruo's ear and whispered, "Each person can buy two, and if you buy one more, you will have a chance. If you don't have enough money, I'll give it to you. Don't be embarrassed, we don't pay you back. Do you want to cooperate in planting medicine fields? When the time comes, it will be deducted from your income."

Wei Ruo felt Xie Ying's kindness, so she whispered to her specially, probably because she was afraid that she would be embarrassed.

"No, it's okay. I don't have enough money. I have enough money. I just don't want to buy two." Wei Ruo explained.

Xie Ying: "Really?"

Wei Ruo: "Really!"

Xie Ying: "Alright then."

Wei Ruo and Xie Ying paid the money, and the shopkeeper took out the registration book and registered their names.

Wei Ruo wrote the name of her second brother Wei Jinyi, while Xie Ying wrote the name of her brother Xie Jue.

After shopping, Wei Ruo and Xie Ying went all the way to the west of the city. There was a courtyard of the Xie family.

In Xingshan County, which is not a big place, Xie's other courtyard is definitely one of the best.

The two first took a carriage for a while, and when they were about to arrive, Xie Ying suggested getting off the carriage and walking to the other courtyard, because the scenery along the way was very good and suitable for walking.

Wei Ruo agreed, and just happened to see some motherwort on the side of the road, and she planned to pick it.

Xie Ying watched Wei Ruo picking as he walked, and asked, "What are you doing picking this grass?"

"This is motherwort, which is very good for women. There are so many that haven't been picked here, so I guess I don't know them." Wei Ruo explained.

Many ordinary people have limited knowledge of herbal medicine, and most of them would treat it as ordinary grass even if they saw it.

"Motherwort? Is it good for women? What are the benefits?" Xie Ying asked.

"That's right..." Wei Ruo was a little embarrassed, there were two guards behind them five or six steps away.

So he leaned into Xie Ying's ear and whispered to her: "It is used for women with irregular menstruation and painful menstruation."

Hearing this, Xie Ying blushed suddenly.

"You...how do you know all about this..."

"I want to grow herbs, so naturally I need to know the useful characteristics of each herb."

"That's right. But how much do you know about that?" Xie Ying asked curiously.

Xie Ying is the same age as Wei Ruo, both are thirteen years old, not far from Jiji, her mother has already mentioned some things to her, but the words are very vague, and she can't hear it.

"Probably... I know all of them." I have lived twice, plus I am studying medicine, so it's hard not to know.

"Isn't that scary?"

"No, you don't have to worry, as long as you take good care of your body, there will be no problems. Tell me when the time comes, and I will teach you how to make a convenient and easy-to-use menstrual belt." Wei Ruo said.

"You... how can you say this thing?"

When it comes to the menstrual belt, even Xie Ying, who has always been carefree, can't help but feel embarrassed.

"We are all girls. It's okay to talk about this kind of thing to each other, and it's a normal phenomenon. It will happen sooner or later. It's better to know it clearly than to ruin your body because you don't know much. People are afraid of it. Things are often because we don’t know enough about such things, what we have to do is to understand them rationally and objectively, rather than blindly avoiding taboos.” Wei Ruo explained.

Xie Ying was surprised by what Wei Ruo said.

"Strange, you are obviously the same age as me, why sometimes you talk in the same way?" Xie Ying looked curious, but also mixed with some admiration.

She really rarely worships her peers, and Wei Ruo is the first.

"There is a house of gold in the book, and the more you read, the more you will know." Wei Ruo attributed the reason to reading.

"What kind of books are you reading? All the books in my family are boring except for the book of war. The book of war is also boring to read. Only when my grandfather told me it was very interesting. Now Mr. Wang is also good. Tell my grandfather Compared with some."

As she spoke, Xie Ying also helped Wei Ruo pick motherwort.

The two chatted while picking, talking and laughing, and picked a large bundle of motherwort.

At this time Xiumei came up and whispered to Wei Ruo: "Miss, there is a sneaky figure in the woods over there. He has been following us for a long time, and he doesn't seem like a good person."

Wei Ruo and the others went to the other courtyard by a creek on one side and a mountain on the other side. There were many shrubs and weeds on both sides of the road. Wei Ruo and the others were looking for motherwort among the weeds.

The suspicious person that Xiumei mentioned is in the forest very close to the road.

Xie Ying also looked over, but the bushes blocked her, and she could only vaguely see a figure moving, but she couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly.

"This man leaves a good road and walks in the woods. There must be something wrong! And there is only one house in the other courtyard of my house ahead of this road. People who have nothing to do will not come here!" Xie Ying said firmly.

Xie Ying has said that, so this person is really suspicious.

"Meimei, are you sure?" Wei Ruo asked.

"Yes! Miss, don't worry, I'll knock him down as soon as he gets close!" Xiumei was confident.

"Okay, then let's keep our faces down." Wei Ruo said.

So Wei Ruo and Xie Ying pretended not to know, and continued to bow their heads to pick motherwort, while Xiumei found a favorable position to ambush.

Sure enough, the furtive figure came down from the mountain and was about to walk through the wild grass.

Xiumei seized the opportunity and rushed forward, grabbing the man with a grabbing hand.

The man resisted immediately and punched Xiumei with his backhand.

The man was face down, and his face had a close contact with the weeds on the ground.

Just about to raise her head, Xiumei knelt on the man's back, grabbed the man's hands behind her back with both hands, and completely subdued him.

"Meimei, beat him!" Wei Ruo ordered.

Xiumei's fist landed on the man's back.

The man struggled and looked up and called for help: "Don't, don't...it's me...it's me..."

"Wait..." Xie Ying rushed out and stopped Xiumei, "Ruoruo, this person seems to be my brother!"

"You... your brother?" Wei Ruo blinked.

Xie Jue, who was pushed down by Xiumei, raised his head higher with difficulty so that the people in front of him could see his appearance clearly: "It's...it's me...my sister is me..."
