Chapter 259: The medicinal juice with coptis root
After meeting Shenbao, she could always hear the sound of plants, but she couldn't control it, so it would be very noisy. Now with Shenbao's help, she doesn't have to be afraid anymore. It turns out that she still needs to practice! The stronger Shenbao is, the more convenient it is for her. She will have to urge Shenbao more in the future.
"Of course, just wait for my good news." The point of their voice transmission is not that Xiaoxiao hears its voice, but that it hears Xiaoxiao's thoughts, so it is a little slow, but it is the ancestor of Shen, and it will definitely be able to solve it quickly.
Seeing that they were still a little weak, Shu Xiaoxiao immediately felt that she was a little too energetic. She quickly bent down and asked weakly, "Tell me, did any of you do something behind my back? I have checked those mushrooms, and there are definitely no poisonous mushrooms. We must have been poisoned by other poisonous mushrooms. Who of you put them there?"
"I have also asked Fang Yuchu, Zhenzhu, Yonghe and Yonggui who helped in the yard. They did not pick mushrooms alone. We picked all the mushrooms. I checked the mushrooms and there is no way there is anything wrong. Whoever did it, confess now!"
The people lying on the bed looked at each other in bewilderment. Was it possible that someone was trying to harm them, or was deliberately trying to embarrass them?
"I...it might be me? I just picked too many and the basket couldn't hold them all, so I put them in my pocket. I forgot to check them for you, but they all look the same, so there should be no problem, right?" Su Shiche explained, raising his right hand tremblingly.
Wasn't he a little excited when he picked mushrooms for the first time? He didn't want to throw them away after picking them, so he put them in his purse, thinking that the ones in the basket were fine, and the ones in his purse should...definitely be fine too. It just so happened that the meal was from the basket he picked, so he...just gave them all to Fang Yuchu.
The rest of them closed their eyes. Although they had forgotten most of what happened after being poisoned, they still had some memories. In addition, Imperial Physician Fang had just come over to explain to them what they had done while they were unconscious. Fortunately, not many people knew about it, otherwise they would not be able to see anyone.
I thought it was an accident, but it turned out to be just carelessness.
They closed their eyes and shouted at him in unison: "Do we look like we're okay?"
Su Shiche shrank his neck: "That wasn't intentional!"
"Young masters, it's time to take your medicine." Zhenzhu brought Yonghe and Yonggui over, each holding a tray, and came over with a smile to serve the young masters to take their medicine.
The young masters smelled the bitter and disgusting smell and glared at Su Shiche. This was simply an unprovoked disaster.
Pearl smiled and handed the medicine bowls to the young masters one by one. She gave the last bowl to her own young master and said with a smile, "Young masters, drink it quickly, otherwise it will taste even more bitter when it gets cold."
Seeing the young masters grimacing in pain, Zhenzhu nodded secretly. It was these young masters who caused her young lady to suffer like this. They should eat more coptis chinensis to reduce their internal heat, and there won't be so many problems in the future.
Shu Xiaoxiao smelled it and felt that a lot of Coptis chinensis must be very bitter. But when she tasted it, it didn't seem that bitter. It seemed that honey was added to the bowl. Although the taste was still weird, it was still tolerable.
He smelled the obvious scent of Coptis chinensis in the air, and the faces of the people whose faces were distorted by the bitterness, and then looked at the smiling Pearl. His mood suddenly became good, and he drank the medicine in the bowl in one gulp.
"These are candied fruits, young master, please enjoy them." Zhenzhu handed over two candied fruits at the right time.
When her young master stopped frowning, Pearl gave each of the other young masters who were staring at her a candied fruit: "Young masters, have a sweet treat, but there are not many candied fruits left. Young masters, you can make do with what you have for now. I will go down the mountain to buy some tomorrow."
The young masters who were about to ask for two pieces of candied fruit to sweeten their mouths said: "Haha, one piece is enough for us. Please trouble Miss Pearl."
Shu Xiaoxiao saw through it but didn't say anything. She went back to rest in a very good mood.

"Master, where is my recliner?" Shu Xiaoxiao looked at the two remaining recliners in the yard in disbelief. She had never left the yard, so who had stolen her recliner?
"What a fuss! What happened to you yesterday? The doctor's trip couldn't be in vain. The recliner is the doctor's consultation fee. It's with Doctor Wen." Director Chu looked indifferent.
"Medical fee? Master, we have money, why should we use the recliner to pay off the debt?" He took her recliner instead.
"You will know this later. What is this? I've only been away for a few days and you've already come up with these messy things. If you put this attention on your studies, why would you need an old man like me to supervise you every day?" Principal Chu asked angrily, pointing at the swing.
"Master, it's just a swing. I can relax here when I'm tired. Besides, you're not old. Why would I need you to supervise me for the rest of my life?" Shu Xiaoxiao went over to the master and patted his shoulders in a flattering manner.
"I still have a lifetime to live. Please let me go. I still want to live a comfortable life for a few days. Have you planted your potatoes?" Principal Chu complained bluntly.
"Potatoes, not yet, but they can be planted. How about planting them today?"
"Well, let's plant it today. Go and prepare it. When Doctor Wen comes, we'll go to the field and plant the potatoes."
"Okay! I'll go get ready."
Although she didn't know why she had to wait for Doctor Wen, but if the master wanted to wait, then she had to wait. Shu Xiaoxiao called Zhenzhu to cut the sprouted potatoes into small seedlings. These potatoes had been watered with ginseng water, and they would definitely thrive as long as the environment was not too harsh.
"Is the method for making potatoes sprout the same as that for sweet potatoes?" asked Principal Chu.
"Almost the same. When there is less food, we cut it according to its germination rate. For example, when there is not much sweet potato in the past and potatoes now, we cut it according to the places where they sprout. For example, if there is no shortage of sweet potato seeds today, we don't need to cut them one by one, which is too tiring. For potatoes, we can cut them before they sprout. After they sprout, we can plant them according to the sprouts. We can't eat potatoes that have sprouted. They are poisonous. We can only eat potatoes that haven't sprouted."
The previous Jin Laosan sent over a few more sacks. Although most of them had sprouted, they were enough for this year's planting. Regardless of anything else, she still had hope of eating potatoes to her heart's content this year.
Although Yonghe and Yonggui were attendants, they were also attendants from the General's Mansion. Apart from anything else, they had certain skills. Together with Zhenzhu, they took a knife and cut a potato with a few whooshes. Their speed was not much slower than that of Huo Feng and the others.
But looking at the small pile of chopped potatoes, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly stopped them: "Don't cut them here, cut them in the field, and plant them directly, so you don't have to go back and forth."
Headmaster Chu didn't expect that there were so many potatoes. They couldn't handle so many by themselves, so he quickly called some more people to help. After planting all the potatoes today, he could go back to the farm to look after the sweet potatoes.
