Chapter 30: Prunella
Guan Wei was also a little embarrassed to hang his eyes, and his light feather-like eyelashes were applied to his lower eyelids.
The headmaster said that the matter of finding the road was too great, in fact, they didn't think about it so much, but they just proposed it, and the villagers really needed this road, so they had a few children, so they went to find it with the mentality of trying.
"Okay, now invite our classmates Guan Wei and Xie Qi to come to the stage to receive the award."
The two walked up to the podium together, took the orange certificate from the principal's hand, held it in his hand, and then walked off the podium together.
After Guan Wei got the certificate, he was not in a hurry to go home, but took a day of classes at school, and only went back with his wife after school.
"Guan Wei starts this Saturday, I'm going to follow the doctor who saved me last time to learn to collect medicine, and when I learn, I'll teach you again, let's go pick together."
"Really."
"Really, a few mornings ago, I met them in the mountains and invited them to my house to help my grandfather treat his illness, and then I heard them talk about the lack of manpower to collect medicine, so I had the courage to ask if I could learn to collect medicine with them, but I didn't expect the master to really agree."
"That's great, you study hard."
"Hmmm! I will definitely study hard. ”
Early on Saturday morning, Ou Ming really appeared at Xie Mi's house as promised, first handed over the medicine to Xie Shan, and then said that he would teach Xie Mi to learn to collect medicine.
Xie Shan Liu Yinglan was very happy, and hurriedly went to the kitchen to cook six eggs and distributed them to the three of them, "Hurry up and eat on the road, it stands to reason that you taught us this, we should give some gifts and thanks, but unfortunately there are no good things at home, sorry doctor." ”
"You're too polite, don't need it," Ou Ming kept refusing, he had to save up to sell eggs for money this year, and he took out six of them at once, which was really a waste of money.
Liu Yinglan said: "The eggs are already boiled, and they can't be left any longer, so you can eat them."
Seeing that the excuse was not enough, the father and son collected the boiled eggs and took Xie Mi to the mountain to collect medicine together. ”
Both father and son were wearing smoky gray shirts and trousers, the trouser legs were tied tightly with threads, and they wore bamboo-woven wide-brimmed hats, which were very good for sun and rain protection.
"Your name is Xie Qi," Ou Ming asked.
"Yes! Thank you, thank you. ”
"My family's surname is Ou, you can call me Teacher Ou in the future."
"Teacher Ou."
"My son's name is Ouyang, you can call him Xiaoyang or Yangyang."
"Hello Xiaoyang," Xie Qi pretended to be very friendly and polite.
"The name of Mi'er is too similar to an animal name, or you can change it to Xie Yao, the Yao next to the word Wang."
People get along with each other, first look at the face, and then the language exchange, if a person has a good face, kind and proper speech and loves to socialize, such a person must be very popular.
And some people may be good-looking, but a mouth makes people feel that they are still dumb.
Thank you so much, we haven't gotten to know each other well enough you can help me change my name! Xie Mi complained secretly, but he didn't want to offend Ouyang too much, so he said, "I don't want to change my name for the time being." ”
"Ignore him, this kid loves to talk nonsense."
Ouyang immediately dismantled the stage and said: "But my mother said, I love to talk nonsense, this problem is inherited from you, grandparents are not like this, but grandpa is like this, we are all inherited from grandpa." ”
Ou Ming thought to himself that this son really can't be wanted, his father still wants to establish a knowledgeable and gentle image in front of his apprentices!
Why didn't he not only demolish his father's platform, but even his ancestor's platform, if there is any medicine to cure nonsense, go back and study it, and open a pair for him to eat.
Ou Ming left his son, pointed to the road ahead, and motioned to his apprentice to follow him, "The most important thing in collecting medicine is to know how to distinguish their appearance and medicinal properties. ”
Xie Qi nodded, and Ou Ming continued: "Some only need rhizomes, some can be used as medicine, and some have unique picking methods, which cannot be picked randomly, you can just follow me to learn these slowly." ”
Ou Ming handed her a white cloth bag for medicine, a dovetail hoe for digging medicine, and a pair of densely woven white gloves.
"To collect ordinary medicine, you can use a hoe and your hands, but when you encounter a precious medicinal material like ginseng, you have to use other methods, and I will teach you later."
"That purple flower in front of you, do you know what it is?" Ou Ming pointed to a piece of prunella grass and asked Xie Qi.
"That's Little Purple Flower."
Ouyang listened and hid behind and snickered.
Ouyang patiently explained: "It's called Prunella vulgaris, it has the effect of clearing the liver and brightening the eyes, you can pick a whole bud on it and dry it and soak it in water as herbal tea, and the state and city love to drink this kind of tea." ”
"Teacher, should we pick a little now?"
"You remember where it grows, and when its flowers grow to red, it's the best time to pick them."
"This herb can be used to treat dizziness and dizziness caused by hyperactivity of the liver yang, as well as to disperse knots and reduce swelling, and sores and boils on the neck."
"I made a note of the teacher."
