It's hard for my elder sister. I rely on the mountains to farm and pay off my debts.

Song Zhi nodded in agreement, "Aunt Lu told me that forsythia is flourishing in the mountains and asked if I could find more buyers, but I'm alone and weak, so I can't find many buyers."

"After much thought, I realized that only the county magistrate has the ability to allow more people to benefit from this, so I simply recommended this tea to him directly."

"Aren't you worried that handing over the recipe for this tea will be detrimental to you?" Doctor Zheng asked tentatively.

Song Zhi shook her head. "Doctor Zheng, you're wrong. In my hands, this tea is just an unknown tea. But now that it's in your hands, I believe that within a few years, all the merchants who come here will have heard of Forsythia tea."

"Besides, my strength alone is too limited. There are so many forsythia bushes here. Wouldn't it be a pity to miss this season?"

Doctor Zheng looked at Song Zhi deeply, and saw that she was a child who knew kindness and righteousness.

In the face of such huge interests, he was really impressed by the fact that he could remain true to himself.

Just at this time, Wang also brewed some freshly brewed Forsythia tea.

Doctor Zheng couldn't wait to pick up the teacup, sniffed it first, then took a sip. It was refreshing at first and had a sweet aftertaste.

He couldn't help but nodded and poured himself a good tea.

He put down the teacup and said with a smile, "I have been preparing forsythia for many years, but I didn't know that the leaves could be used to make tea."

He asked curiously, "How did you come up with the idea of making tea with forsythia leaves?"

Song Zhi's heart suddenly started to ring with alarm bells, and her brain was working at high speed to find a credible reason.

She paused and said, "Because I've been sick a lot, I've always been interested in herbal medicine. Later, when I went to the city to sell jelly, I came into contact with several herbalists and traveling merchants. From them, I heard that herbs can also be made into tea."

She frowned and thought deeply for a moment, as if recalling something. After a while, she said, "I think it's called Wild Chrysanthemum Tea?"

"At that time, I was obsessed with studying food, so when I came back, I thought about picking some herbs to try. After a few attempts, I discovered that tea made from forsythia leaves tasted really good."

"Thanks to the convenience of selling jelly in the city, I also benefited from selling a batch. I'm really lucky!"

Doctor Zheng now looked at Song Zhi with even more admiration!

However, she would remember a few words from others and put them into action.

In Doctor Zheng's opinion, this is not just good luck. Such dedication and hard work also show his interest in herbal medicine. If it is not from his family, he really cherishes this talent.

Doctor Zheng suppressed his thoughts and said, "This is the result of your hard work. You deserve it."

He changed the subject and talked about the powder again, "Your consideration is correct. Your Excellency's intentions are good, but the mountains are dangerous. If you don't take proper precautions, there is a high possibility of accidents."

"Making the powder to keep away snakes and insects isn't difficult. I sell this powder to the public for ten coins a can. If you need it, I can provide it to the county government for eight coins a can."

"Thank you, Doctor Zheng. I thank you on behalf of the people."

Doctor Zheng waved his hand nonchalantly, "I should be the one thanking you for remembering to take care of my business."

Song Zhi smiled awkwardly. She really wanted to make friends with Doctor Zheng.

Firstly, I want to thank him for his kindness in saving me over the years.

Secondly, she wanted to continue learning about herbal medicine. She wanted to create an image of herself as a hard-working person who loved herbal medicine in front of Dr. Zheng. After she paid off her debt, she would ask Dr. Zheng if he could teach her how to identify herbs.

This way, she wouldn't have to be so timid no matter what she did in the future.

After Song Zhi left, Doctor Zheng stared at the direction the little girl went in a daze.

Wang nudged her husband's arm with her elbow. "What are you thinking about?"

Doctor Zheng came back to his senses and said sadly, "It's a pity that Ah Zhi isn't a boy. What a good child! Not only is he kind-hearted, but he's also very determined. If I give Hui Er to someone like that, I can rest assured even after we die!"

Zheng Hui, who was standing by, blushed so much that she shouted in shame and anger, "Grandpa, I won't get married!" and then turned around and ran back into the house.

Seeing his granddaughter running away, Doctor Zheng looked at her back, smiled and shook his head, "This child..."

Wang became thoughtful because of her husband's words.

From the time when the Song family gave jelly food to everyone, to now when Song Zhi handed over the method of making tea to the county magistrate.

It is undeniable that just from these two things, it can be seen that the Song family is worth making friends with.

They are already old, and there has been no news from their youngest son. Now the whereabouts of their granddaughter has become a current concern for the old couple.

They are not yet qualified to marry into a family with good family background, and even if they were, the old couple would not dare to marry their granddaughter into one easily.

She had no brothers from her mother's family to support her. If the old couple passed away, what would happen if their Hui'er was bullied? What would they do?

But families with ordinary conditions also have more troubles. Just the lack of money can make Huier suffer a lot.

The future of their granddaughter has become a source of worry for the old couple.

Suddenly, Wang blurted out, "Old man, what do you think of Song Ping's character?"

Doctor Zheng hesitated for a moment, "You want to?"

Wang nodded and said, "We have lived here for three years, so we know the Song family inside and out.

"Mrs. Wu is a humble person. Although Mrs. Yang has a quick temper, she is also quite reasonable. Dashan and his son are honest people. There are many brothers in the family. If Hui'er marries one of them, it might be a bit difficult, but they will be a help in the future."

"And Ah Zhi, that child now seems to me to be a kind and righteous person. You have been treating that child with all your heart over the years, which is a gesture of kindness. Hui'er will not be humiliated if she marries into a family like this!"

His wife's analysis was correct, but Song Ping seemed a bit ordinary to him.

With this in mind, he asked, "Will this be unfair to our Hui'er?"

"Song Ping is honest and hardworking, but she doesn't have any special skills. What will we do if Hui'er has to endure hardships after following her?"

Wang glanced at the old man and said, "I told you you're stupid, but you still refuse to admit it. Now we have to find someone who is honest and can endure hardships!"

"To live life, you need to find a down-to-earth person. If you dare to marry that cunning and cunning person, I wouldn't dare let Hui'er marry her!"

Doctor Zheng was stunned by his wife's scolding, but he was not angry. Instead, he began to think about the feasibility of this matter.

Seeing that her husband was lost in thought, Wang continued to express her own ideas.

"I thought that he has many children at home. While we are still able to run and move, if you take in another apprentice, the apprentice will be like a half-son!"

"This will be Hui'er's support in the future, and also their means of making a living. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
