Chapter 45 Banquet

Mining is different from cutting stones. It cannot be produced for a while. Just as Zhou Huaian came, he reported something, and Yan Shu followed Ling Si to leave the mining area and returned to the inn.

After Yan Shu and Ling Si separated, they were about to go back to their room when they saw Tao Ran carrying a bamboo basket from outside the station, from far to near.

Seeing Yan Shu, he immediately showed surprise and his pace accelerated a lot, "Doctor Yan, you are back. I came to find you before, but unfortunately you are not here."

Yan Shu stood there and waited for Tao Ran to come in front of her and said in a low voice, "General Ling and I went to the mining area together and have just returned."

When Tao Ran heard this, the smile on the corner of his lips paused, half helpless and half sighed, "Doctor Yan seems to have been in and out with General Ling recently. I have come here several times but I haven't seen Dr. Yan. To be honest, I miss the busy days in the medical account a while ago."

Yan Shu refused to comment, Wubo Wulan said, "Brother Tao has something to ask me for?"

"It's nothing big. I heard from the villagers here that there are many herbs on Taibai Mountain not far outside the village. I came to find you just to go out with you to collect herbs. But you were not here, so I went by myself." Tao Ran put the bamboo basket behind him forward, "This is my harvest, it's all here."

Yan Shu looked carefully, her eyes flashed over several ordinary herbs, and finally stopped on a large bunch of lush brown-yellow plants, nodding, "This Houttuynia cordata is not bad."

“It’s really good.”

Tao Ran smiled, picked up a plant of Houttuynia cordata and handed it to Yan Shu, "This Houttuynia cordata is a specialty here. We use Houttuynia cordata as medicine. The people here seem to use Houttuynia cordata to cook, which has many uses."

Yan Shu put the Houttuynia cordata on her nose and sniffed it. "Houttuynia cordata tastes spicy, and it returns to the lung meridian, clears heat and detoxifies, strengthens the stomach and digests food. It is also okay to use it on food."

"That's right." Tao Ran pointed to the bamboo basket, "I have picked a lot of Houttuynia cordata. If Doctor Yan needs it, he will take it, so don't be polite to me."

Yan Shu returned the Houttuynia cordata in her hand to Tao Ran and said to the truth, "Thank you, but I can't use it for the time being."

Tao Ran took Houttuynia cordata and continued to smile and said, "I will dry and preserve Houttuynia cordata. When will Doctor Yan need it, he will open his mouth."

Yan Shu was about to speak when she heard a cheerful voice suddenly coming.

"Brother Yan, I'm sure I'm seeing you."

Yan Shu and Tao Ran turned around and saw Jiang Yuansheng trotting over in three steps.

"General Jiang." Yan Shu and the other two greeted each other almost in unison.

Jiang Yuansheng looked directly at Yan Shu with his eyes, scratching his head and laughing, "Doctor Yan, I have come here to see you many times recently. Either I came late or missed it. I didn't expect that I was lucky today."

Tao Ran looked at Jiang Yuansheng's surprise that was almost exactly the same as he had just seen, and couldn't help but speak, "General Jiang Shen is indeed much luckier than me."

Jiang Yuansheng then turned his head and looked sideways, and said in a little surprised, "Doctor Tao, are you here too?"

Tao Ran's mouth twitched, "I've been there all the time."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuansheng smiled with embarrassment and said apologetically, "It's rare to meet Doctor Yan. My eyes are a little out of control. Doctor Tao, please forgive me."

Tao Ran smiled and said politely, "General Jiang Shen is serious."

Jiang Yuansheng looked at the bamboo basket in front of Tao Ran, "Doctor Tao is...Is there something to do with Brother Yan?"

Tao Ran shook his head, "It's nothing, I'm just giving Dr. Yan some herbs."

"Oh, it's fine."

Jiang Yuansheng said enthusiastically, "Doctor Yan, I heard from the villagers here that there is a mountain nearby, which is very vast and suitable for horse racing. Now it is just right. Are you interested in running around? By the way, that mountain...what is that mountain called?"

When Jiang Yuansheng was thinking about it, Tao Ran, who was beside him, said three words, "Taibai Mountain."

"Yes, yes, it's Taibai Mountain!" Jiang Yuansheng instinctively affirmed, and then he reacted after affirming, and said a little surprised, "How did Dr. Tao know?"

Tao Ran pointed to the herbs in his bamboo basket, "I just came back from there. These herbs were picked from Taibai Mountain. I originally wanted to invite Dr. Yan to go with me."

Tao Ran didn't know what was wrong with him, so he added the last sentence for no reason.

"It seems that my luck is better than Doctor Tao." Jiang Yuansheng didn't care and said with a hearty smile, "Doctor Yan, I wonder what you think?"

It was a coincidence that, just like before, Yan Shu had no time to answer, but saw Zhou Huaian walking over with joy. Before she could approach, she spoke, "Doctor Yan, you are so happy."

Hearing this, Yan Shu knew it instantly and asked almost certainly, "Did Mayor Chang pick jade?"

"Not only was it picked, it was also the best emperor green. Mayor Chang said that all this depends on the guidance of Doctor Yan. Doctor Yan is the first to be the best emperor green." Zhou Huaian walked up to him and said this, but he did not forget to say hello to Jiang Yuansheng and the others.

Jiang Yuansheng couldn't help but say curiously, "Deputy General Zhou, what are you talking about?"

"This is how things are..." Zhou Huaian explained the causes and consequences of the matter in a few simple words.

After hearing this, Jiang Yuansheng immediately sighed, "Brother Yan, I didn't expect that you are not only superb in medicine, but also in Diancui, and I admire you!"

Tao Ran followed closely, "This is indeed a great achievement. Doctor Yan, congratulations."

Yan Shu herself was very calm, "It's nothing. I just mentioned it casually, it's not a great achievement."

Zhou Huaian smiled and shook his head, "This is wrong. Doctor Yu Yan may just say something casually. For Caishi Town, this sentence is too heavy. Mayor Chang is very grateful to you. He suggested that a dinner party tonight, to welcome us, and to thank Doctor Yan for your guidance. The general also agreed. He was listening to Mayor Chang's report on the progress and couldn't leave for a while. Let me come over and convey it on my behalf."

At this time, Jiang Yuansheng frowned, "Deputy General Zhou, when will the dinner start?"

"It's almost done, I'm preparing." Zhou Huaian looked sideways and asked with a smile, "What's wrong, what's wrong with General Jiang Shen?"

Jiang Yuansheng scratched his head and said a little hesitantly, "No, I just want to go out for a horseback riding with Dr. Yan. Now it seems that time seems a bit tight."

When Zhou Huaian heard this, he thought about it and said seriously, "This is a banquet specially prepared by General Ling and Mayor Chang for Doctor Yan. General Jiang Shen can't take the people away, otherwise I will not be able to hand in the office."

Jiang Yuansheng sighed lightly and smiled helplessly, "Then let's go another day."
