Chapter 106: Herbal tea Prunella vulgaris

"Huanhuan... Huanhuan, are you at home?" Wang Ailan asked while standing at the door of Shi Qinghuan's house, knocking on the door.

"You're at home, Aunt Wang, what do you want from me?"

"I came here to ask if you would like to dig up prunella vulgaris with me."

"Prunella vulgaris? What is that?"

"Herbal tea, drink it to relieve the heat."

"Okay, please wait for me. I'll go back home and change my clothes. I'll take the backpack with me by the way." After Shi Qinghuan finished speaking, he quickly went back home and changed his clothes.

After she changed her clothes and came out, she put the basket on her back and said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, let's go."

Wang Ailan nodded after hearing Shi Qinghuan's words, and then she and Shi Qinghuan walked downstairs.

More than half an hour later, Wang Ailan took Shi Qinghuan to a ditch. Then she pointed to the plant with small white flowers beside the ditch and said to Shi Qinghuan: "Huanhuan, that's Prunella vulgaris. After a while, When you dig, it’s best to dig hard at the same time, so that the tea you make will be better.”

Shi Qinghuan nodded after hearing Wang Ailan's words, indicating that she understood. Then she took out a small hoe from her backpack and began to dig up the prunella vulgaris.

More than an hour later, Shi Qinghuan dug a basket full of prunella vulgaris. Then she looked towards Wang Ailan and saw that Wang Ailan had also dug a basket full of prunella vulgaris. She said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, I have dug enough." I have a basketful of prunella vulgaris on my back, do you want to continue digging?"

"No more digging. I've dug enough for a basket. Come on, I'll take you to the river to wash the prunella vulgaris."

Shi Qinghuan said hello after hearing Wang Ailan's words, and then she followed Wang Ailan step by step towards the river.

A few minutes later, Wang Ailan brought Shi Qinghuan to the river. Then she said to Shi Qinghuan: The water in this river is very clean. We will clean the prunella vulgaris here.

"Okay." After Shi Qinghuan finished speaking, she poured out all the prunella vulgaris in the basket. Then she washed the basket and put it next to her, and then began to wash the prunella vulgaris.

After she had cleaned all the prunella vulgaris, she picked up the basket and shook it to dry the water in the basket. Then she put the basket on a clean stone and went to help Wang Ailan clean the prunella vulgaris.

After a few minutes, all the prunella vulgaris dug by Wang Ailan was cleaned, and then Shi Qinghuan said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, let's go home."

Wang Ailan said hello after hearing Shi Qinghuan's words, and then she and Shi Qinghuan walked home with their baskets on their backs.

Since they left early today, they had already returned to the family building before noon. Then Shi Qinghuan asked Wang Ailan, "Aunt Wang, where should we dry the prunella vulgaris?"

"Just put it in the sun on my balcony and it will dry in a few days."

Shi Qinghuan said hello after hearing Wang Ailan's words, and then she walked towards her home with a basket on her back.

When she got home, she took out all the prunella vulgaris from the basket and put it on the balcony to dry, and then she went to the kitchen to make lunch.

After more than half an hour, Shi Qinghuan cooked lunch. Then she returned to the living room with the cooked lunch and put the lunch on the dining table. Then she sat down at the dining table to eat lunch.

After she finished her lunch, she felt a little sleepy, so she quickly put away the dishes in the kitchen to clean them, and then she went back to her room to take a nap.
