Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

An Yue walked up to the village chief, put down the backpack, stood up straight and said loudly: "Dear uncles and aunts, today Yue Yue will tell you about the treatment and prevention of epidemics."

"This prescription was obtained after testing. However, everyone's physique is different, and the effect may also be different. Yueyue cannot guarantee that the efficacy of this prescription will work for everyone."

The man named Li Ergou stepped forward and said with a smile: "I'm willing to give it a try."

Then, everyone responded, "Yes, I do, too."

"I would like that too."

"..."

An Yue raised her hands and signaled everyone to be quiet.

The audience immediately fell silent again.

"The herbs needed to make this soup can be found around our village, including plantain, dandelion, honeysuckle, yellow broom, artemisia annua, and houttuynia. Yueyue has brought samples of these herbs."

An old man asked: "There are so many kinds of weeds in this field. What if I identify the wrong one?"

An Yue walked up to the village chief and had a brief discussion with him.

——A quarter of an hour later.

The village chief stepped forward and said, "When we start picking herbs, let's divide into groups. Each group will be responsible for picking one herb. This way, there will be no room for mistakes. Do you agree?"

The old man nodded and agreed: "Well, this is a good idea."

"The grouping is the same as when we dug a deep well, with every ten households forming a group. Next, Yueyue will teach the first group how to identify herbs."

Qin distributed the samples in the backpack to the first group of villagers.

Then, An Yue held up the herb and said, "This weed is called plantain. It usually grows on the roadside or on the ridges of fields. Its leaves are oval and have obvious veins."

After listening to An Yue, the villagers in the first group began to carefully observe the plantain in their hands.

A man in the field looked at the plantain in his hand and asked, "Miss Yueyue, are you sure this weed is a medicinal herb?"

An Yue said confidently: "This is natural."

The man scratched his head and muttered in disbelief: "Normally, there are a lot of them on the roadside here!"

Qin distributed the samples one by one.

An Yue changed a dandelion and said, "The second group will start identifying dandelions. Dandelions can be seen on the hillside, with small yellow flowers."

......

"The third group is honeysuckle. Honeysuckle usually grows in bushes, with vines bearing small white and yellow flowers."

"The fourth group, Houttuynia cordata..."

——A few minutes later.

An Yue explained all kinds of medicinal herbs to each group.

Finally, he asked everyone: "Does everyone recognize it?"

The villagers nodded and responded, "Remember."

An Yue turned to look at the village chief with satisfaction: "Uncle, this is all Yue Yue wants to say."

The village chief nodded and said loudly: "Now that each group has identified the herbs of their group, let's take action quickly!"

The man asked, "Village Chief, now that we have collected the herbs, what should we do?"

The village chief looked at An Yue, who rolled her eyes and said, "Tomorrow at 9:00 p.m., everyone should bring all the herbs you dug here, and I will check them one by one."

"After confirming that the herbs you picked are correct, I will mix them into a prescription."

The villagers nodded in agreement.

The village chief suggested, "How about letting Yueyue demonstrate how to boil the medicine in front of everyone tomorrow? What do you think?"

"Okay, okay, that's great."

The village chief looked at An Yue with a questioning look.

An Yue nodded and said, "No problem. But everyone needs to bring their own medicine bowl."

The villagers all responded with a smile on their faces: "Okay, okay, no problem."

The village chief started again: "We have settled the matter regarding the prescription. Does anyone have any other questions?"

The villagers off the field all shook their heads with smiles on their faces.

"That's fine, everyone go home and prepare to collect herbs!"

After the village chief said the last sentence, the villagers dispersed.

Seeing everyone disperse, the village chief laughed again and said, "Tomorrow, don't forget to bring your bowls!"

Several women joked as they walked along: "What the village chief means is that if you forget to bring a bowl, you can borrow one from him."

Qin smiled and waved her hands, "No, no, no, I won't lend it to you then! You three slippery women, please stop talking nonsense!"

At this time, there were still a few villagers who had not yet fully recognized the herbs. They privately sought out An Yue to explain them in detail, and only went home after they were sure that they had fully recognized the herbs.

The village meeting was over and the villagers returned happily, each with hope on their face.

At this moment, there were laughter and joy everywhere. It seemed that all of a sudden, the whole village became much more lively.

At this time, the sun is gradually setting.

Before I knew it, I could hear the sound of cicadas chirping in the mountains and forests these days.

After An Yue confirmed that everyone knew the herbs, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, a major issue concerning the entire village has been resolved."

After saying goodbye to the village chief and his wife, she walked along the road towards her home.

Along the way, she hummed a little tune and felt particularly happy.

The breeze blows across your face, bringing a hint of cool mountain air.

......

As soon as I entered the yard, my sister-in-law Meng Xiuer was preparing dinner in the kitchen.

An Yue took off her mask and walked into the kitchen.

An Nian, who was sitting under the stove, saw An Yue and quickly called out, "Sister, are you back?"

An Yue walked up to An Nian, rubbed his head a few times, and praised him: "Niannian, are you helping to pass the firewood?"

An Nian nodded with a "hmm".

Meng Xiuer, who was standing behind the stove, asked with concern: "Yueyue, how is the progress on the epidemic prescription?"

An Yue smiled and replied, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, everything is going well. The villagers are all actively cooperating. Tomorrow at 9:00 p.m., the villagers will carry the picked herbs to the west end of the village, and I will check them one by one then."

Sister-in-law Meng Xiuer nodded and said affirmatively: "Well, Yueyue is really capable."

Daniu Ale, my grandmother and aunt came back from the fields.

An Yue washed her hands and started to set the table.

......

The next day.

Before the Si hour, the villagers had already arrived at the open space at the west end of the village with the picked herbs.

An Yue checked the herbs picked by each group one by one, nodding in praise from time to time.

“Everyone did a great job, and nothing went wrong.”

An Yue could feel that the villagers were taking the task of digging herbs seriously.

Each group was assigned to pick herbs, and no group made any mistakes.

This made An Yue feel very relieved and very satisfied.

Afterwards, An Yue began to prepare the prescription skillfully and arranged all the herbs in a row.

Several herbs from various species were selected and put together to form an herbal formula to fight against diseases.

Qin was helping to bundle the herbs behind him.
