Ning Yu smiled, revealing neat rows of white teeth. "Little Lou, if you're tired, you can rest. You probably don't walk very often on the mountain roads, right?"

Zhan Xiaolou waved his hand. "You guessed wrong. I was following my father to gather herbs. What kind of mountains have I not been to before? To me, this is nothing!"

Skipping over a rock, she continued, "I go out quite a bit, and I'm not that weak yet. I think the environment is more suitable for growing medicinal herbs. Why don't we dig while we rest?"

In fact, she still had something on her mind. She had to go to the Sun Elementary Scholar's house in the afternoon to settle Lu Yi's problem, and only Aunt Lu and Lu Xin would be able to. She wasn't afraid that Sun Elementary Scholar wouldn't leave, but rather that the Lu Family would suffer another loss.

She had somehow come to this Azure Sea Country. If she hadn't coincidentally met the kind-hearted Aunt Lu, she would not have known whether she was dead or alive.

Humans had to have a grateful heart. Before she left, she had to repay this kindness.

Ning Yu naturally listened to Lou Lan.

Zhan Xiaotao carefully searched the surroundings and found a few medicinal herbs. He dug up the roots and showed them to Ning Yu.

Ning Yu was very serious. She read it carefully a few times, memorizing it in her heart before digging one out for her to see.

Zhan Xiaolou nodded. "That's it. You've even dug up the roots. You're quite talented. Just a look and you'll remember it. Memories are also good, I have a whole new level of respect for you."

Ning Yu couldn't help blushing. Zhan Xiaolou really didn't like it when he saw it. A grown man would blush every now and then.

Actually, she had already gotten used to it a year ago, but she just forgot about it …

Therefore, for the current Zhan Xiaolou, Ning Yu was the first man she'd interacted with like this.

The climate here was very suitable, and there were almost no people picking herbs. She thought that it was mainly because very few people knew about medical skills, which was why the status of a doctor was so respected in this place.

This was the complete opposite of the situation with the Lunar Curse. She remembered that the Doctor's status in the Lunar Curse was not very high.

However, she also remembered the clothes she had been wearing when she woke up at the riverside. They looked very luxurious, so she guessed that she wasn't too bad when she was in the Moon Curse. That father must have been having a good time.

At this moment, she didn't know that her father had already passed away. When she found out about it later, she would have to go through the pain of losing her family members again …

She discovered that there were a lot of herbs on the mountain. Not long after, she dug out more than half of the baskets and found some that she could use. There were also some that she could not use for the time being.

At most, their names were different. This was also the reason why she was able to remember all the herbs so quickly in the past. Her father was very happy, he said that she was a genius that was hard to come by in a hundred years, but in truth, she was just taking advantage of them.

After about four hours, the two of them had collected most of the bamboo grasses. Zhan Xiaolou saw that it was about time, so he called Ning Yu and the two of them headed back.

After about two hours, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. The mountain village was in front of them, and since they had arrived early, they did not meet anyone. However, it was already noon, and many people were working in the fields.

When they saw Ning Yu returning with a refined and elegant woman, they were filled with curiosity. They couldn't help but discuss among themselves, guessing who she was.
