Chapter 96 A warm little home

When Liuyun returned home, there were two servants standing at the door. She heard that it was quite noisy inside and was wondering if she could get in when the two servants noticed her.

Immediately, their eyes lit up, and one of them quickly shouted inside: "The young lady is back! The young lady is back!"

One man led the horse, bent down and walked inside against the flowing clouds!
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw a lively scene. Three or five maids stopped what they were doing and called out "Miss" in unison.

Liuyun wondered how they recognized him?
Qiuyan opened the door, and Canxue supported Bai and stood at the door looking out.

He looked worried at first, but suddenly smiled when he saw Liuyun himself.

"You little girl! You suddenly said you were going out for a while. I was so worried about you and was looking forward to your return. I didn't expect you to gain weight!"

"How is mother? Have I gained weight?" She touched her face. It was impossible. How could it be possible when she was riding a horse at full speed?
"Everything is fine, mother! Qiuyan and Canxue are taking good care of us! These girls were also trained by them, so mother doesn't have to worry about anything!"

She was happy and reached out to touch Liuyun's chubby little face. Ever since he left that person, he had become more relaxed and gained a lot of weight.

"They were able to recognize me, so they must have been trained by Qiu Yan, right?"

"I found a scholar in the city and paid him a few dollars to paint a portrait of the young lady. I think it's only 70% like her! Take a look!"

As he said this, he pointed to the portrait on the wall. The woman in the painting was pretty and charming, with a gentle brow. She didn't look like her, but rather had some resemblance to Bai!
"I don't think so either. She's not as pretty as my Yun'er!" Bai commented.

"Thank goodness they have sharp eyes and recognized the young lady at the first sight!" Qiuyan said with a smile.

"Hurry up and tell someone to go to the street to buy some fresh vegetables and prepare a delicious meal to welcome Yun'er!" Bai instructed softly.

"Yes!"

Qiuyan called a little girl at the door and gave her detailed instructions.

The people in the yard were all new, but everything was in order and not at all hectic. Qiuyan was indeed careful and steady.

"Come and tell us where you have been? What interesting things have you encountered?" Bai said with a smile.

Liuyun told them everything he had seen and heard along the way, adding some embellishments while minimizing the degree of horror.

He insisted on describing the Soul-Bewitching Tree as a small potted plant, and when he was quite excited, Liuyun remembered something.

She stared at the remaining snow mysteriously, and casually produced a basket, and the fresh scent of hay wafted over her face.

"My little girl, I didn't let you down this time. Look! These are the herbs I picked for you! Not a single one is missing!" He took credit for his achievements and showed off proudly.

Everyone peeked inside and saw a full basket of hay piled up in layers, with nothing different to see.

She took out another pile of paper and handed it to Canxue: "I picked them strictly according to your drawing! I picked them during the day and dried them at night! It's not easy!"

Canxue looked at the basket of hay and said quietly, "Have you collected all the herbs in the pictures?"

"Yes! I have a talent for medicine?"

"But, Miss." Canxue really couldn't bear to hit her, and said hesitantly: "These pictures are all the herbs I guessed based on the geographical environment. How could they all exist? And you found them all?"

"Maybe it's a coincidence? Take a look!" He grabbed a handful of hay and stuffed it into Canxue's hand for her to identify carefully.

Canxue stared at the hay in his hand helplessly, then pulled out a piece and shook it in front of Liuyun.

"Miss, what kind of grass is this?"

"Hmm, this is..." Liuyun took a look and felt that it looked familiar but he couldn't remember where it was. He took the blueprint and searched for it. He found it in no time.
"Look! This one! Sirius!"

"My lady! I painted wolf grass, and what you picked was dogtail grass!"

"No way!! They look the same!" Liuyun compared the picture with Qiangyu Hay, and they were exactly the same no matter how you looked at them.

"Then what is this one?" Canxue asked after pulling out one.

"Hmm, seven stars with leaves!" She found the picture and insisted, "This is it!"

"Pursonia! Miss! This is pursonia! It's a wild vegetable we often eat in summer! Pursonia!"

Canxue shook the hay in her hand with a frustrated look on her face. She had found the wrong person for this job.
"Can't you?"

She still couldn't believe it. She ran a long way, looking at the map to find the place and looking for herbs according to the pictures. After all the hard work, she only found a bunch of wild vegetables that were often seen at her home. This was too infuriating.
"You do this! Canxue! Draw a few more! I will find them for you next time I go out! I just don't believe it!" She vowed, as if she would not give up until she achieved her goal.

But Canxue is really not interested anymore.
Bai pinched her waist and laughed so hard at their conversation that her stomach hurt.
Qiuyan also laughed until tears came out, and kept digging in the hay. Wow! They were all common weeds or wild vegetables. No wonder Canxue looked so depressed.
When she reached the bottom of the basket, she touched a branch she had never seen before, pulled it out and asked,

"Huh? What is this? I've never seen it before!"

Canxue looked over and saw that the branches were no longer fresh and tender. They looked a bit like willow branches, with small flowers on them.

"It smells so good! It still smells so good even after it dries! It smells so good. It smells so good."

Qiuyan took a deep breath of the fragrance, muttered something, and began to look dazed. He sat down on the ground.
Canxue snatched the branch, raised her other arm to cover her mouth and nose, and examined it carefully.

Liuyun hurriedly found a few small yellow flowers from the frame and placed them in front of her nose for a while, and Qiuyan slowly woke up.
"Miss!" Canxue couldn't suppress her excitement: "Are there any more? Do you still have this branch?"

"There should be more!" She bent down and fished for a long time, then took out four or five more: "That's all!"

"Thank you, miss! Thank you, miss!" She took it hurriedly and bowed to Liuyun.

"You'd better be careful! This thing is very deceptive!" she warned.

"I know! This is the Soul-Blinding Tree that the young lady just mentioned! I knew it the first time I saw it!"

"Ah? You guessed it based on my simple description?"

"Yes!" She nodded lightly: "Didn't the lady explain it very clearly?!"

As he said this, he turned around and found a larger porcelain vase, put all the flowers in it, then arranged the dried yellow flowers neatly, pressed them in a book, and then sealed the mouth of the porcelain vase with the book!
Looking at the messy basket of hay and the carefully arranged remaining snow, I feel really ashamed of myself!

As for the pictures, I couldn't find the right ones even if I compared them myself, but Canxue could accurately name the branches after just listening to the story once.
It seems that she really has no talent in this area.
"Hey! Wait for Canxue! There is one more thing!" Liuyun called her and told her not to rush!

"What's wrong, miss?"

"I'll give you a pipe!" She took out the pipe and handed it to Canxue with a smile: "This is a good thing!"

"Canxue won't smoke this!"

"This is Mingxu, silly girl! You don't have to carry so many bags when you go out! This is all I need!"

"Wouldn't it be a waste to give something of this level to Canxue?" She nodded and didn't dare to take it.

"How could that be?" She suddenly thought of a sentence that fits the situation perfectly: "You deserve it!"

Sometimes she followed Wang Xing to the herbal medicine shop, and sometimes she followed him to collect herbs. She always carried a big basket on her back. It would be so convenient to have such a thing!
He grinned happily, reached out to take the pipe and put it at his waist, then turned around, quite satisfied with his outfit.

He hugged Liuyun and said with a sweet smile: "Thank you, Miss!"
