Chen Mengtian was tired of speaking, so she took a small break before she continued. “Honeysuckles relieve heat, cure poison, fight against bacteria, are anti-inflammatory, can protect the liver, nourish the liver, and have other functions. Dandelions are sweet, slightly bitter, and cool. They can relieve heat, cure poison, reduce swelling, and clear blockages in the body.

“These are all common medicinal herbs. If we use them reasonably, they have a lot of functions.”

Chen Mengtian saw the shock on Jiang Zebei’s face and continued, “There’s also treasures like ginseng, cordyceps, vitis flexuosa, ganoderma. I don’t need to mention their functions to you, right?”

Jiang Zebei looked at Chen Mengtian’s proud face and her moving lips. He felt his mouth drying. 

The girl was really attractive like this. 

She had really good looks and smiled sweetly. When she smiled, her eyes curled up as well, making them look as beautiful as crescent moons. 

She was the most beautiful girl in Chen Village. 

It was no wonder why the young men in the village coveted her. 

Even that weak Chen Qing also cast his eyes on her. 

No one would not like her face. 

Jiang Zebei looked down. It was a pity that she disliked him. 

He smelled her fragrance, and he did not want to be alone with her. 

Since Chen Mengtian managed to name so many medicinal herbs and their functions, he came to his decision. 

“Alright. Once we have breakfast, we’ll go into the mountains together. We’ll just be wandering at the perimeter of the mountains, though.”

It was not like they lacked the small amount of money that could be earned from medicinal herbs. He just wanted to divert her attention. 

The matter with Chen Qing and Chen Baozhu would definitely not come to an end just like that. 

When Chen Mengtian saw that he agreed, she immediately smiled. “You promised, so don’t you dare go back on your word!”

She was worried that the boy in front of her would go back on his word again. 

In truth, she did not mind going into the mountains alone. But she had just come to the place, so she still needed to get used to her surroundings. 

Besides, Chen Mengtian’s reputation was ruined. If Jiang Zebei were around, it would be easier to explain things if anything happened. 

When Jiang Zebei saw how happy she was, his face relaxed as well. 

His voice became slightly gentler, which was something rare. “I won’t go back on my word. Go wash up.”

“Alright!”

With Chen Mengtian leading the way and Jiang Zebei trailing behind her, they reached the well in the courtyard. 

Jiang Zebei used the wooden bucket to lift up water, and Chen Mengtian was the first to wash her face and rinse her mouth. 

Once she was finished, Jiang Zebei used the remaining half of the water to wash his face. 

It might be winter already, but the coldest days had yet to arrive. 

Soon, they would have to use hot water to wash their faces every day. 

When Jiang Zebei remembered that he would have to prepare hot water at home in the future, he turned around to look for the girl. 

When he looked back, he realized that she was no longer next to him. 

Could it be that she thought it was cold and went back inside?

Jiang Zebei wiped his face and poured the remaining water in the courtyard before he placed the bucket by the well. 

He turned around and headed into the kitchen. 

By the looks of it, he would be cooking breakfast today as well. 

Last night, when he gave Madam Chen grain, he saw that there was still grain at home, along with some eggs, some wilted vegetables, and the meat left from his last hunt. 

“Cough, cough…”

When Jiang Zebei reached the entrance to the kitchen, he heard coughing inside. 

His expression changed, and he walked faster to enter the kitchen. 

When he saw what happened in the kitchen, he had a strange look in his eyes again. 

Cured meat was on the cutting board, and whipped eggs were in a bowl. 

“Cough, cough…”

The coughing sounds came from Chen Mengtian. She was squatting in front of the furnace. 

She had been trying to light up a fire just now, but could not do it.

It might have been because she was too serious, but she did not notice that Jiang Zebei had walked in. 

When he saw how clumsy she was, he walked in front of the stove and lifted the pot lid. 

There was water and grain inside. There were also two steamed buns on the steamer above the water and grain.
