Bai Nuo spent a lot of time going into the mountains recently, collecting a lot of Chinese medicinal herbs. The mature herbs were processed and put into the medicine cabinet of the pharmacy.

As for the medicinal seedlings, some were planted in the space's medicinal fields, while others were released into the vast forest to grow wildly.

During that time, she also obtained a lot of Chinese medicinal herbs while checking in at the back mountain. Most of them were hard to find or uncommon. However, after entering her space, all Chinese medicinal herbs were treated the same. She kept the seedlings and planted them in two different places. Once they matured, she processed them and put them into the Chinese medicine shop.

After selecting the medicinal herbs needed for making medicinal wine at the Chinese medicine pharmacy, Bai Nuo went to process the two 700-year-old wild ginseng roots she had won in the previous lucky draw and prepared to soak them in the wine.

Originally, she planned to give these two wild ginseng roots to her maternal great-uncle to handle—whether to sell them, keep them for himself, or give them away.

However, she suddenly remembered that she could make medicinal wine for the elderly people, so she didn't mention it when she was at the scrap metal recycling station that afternoon.

In the vast forest within her space, common herbs seemed unworthy of growing there; not a single one could be found before.

However, there are quite a few rare Chinese medicinal herbs like wild ginseng.

However, you might never find one of these things outside in your entire life. If she gives these two away and then manages to make a few more to soak in alcohol, that would be truly outrageous.

So it's better to keep it to make medicinal wine, and then just give the wine to the old man, so as not to give him wild ginseng, which the old man is reluctant to use himself.

Bai Nuo was busy working on the handmade wooden cabin until after 11 p.m. If the little system hadn't come to urge her, she probably wouldn't have remembered to go to sleep.

"Okay, okay, don't push me, I'm going right now!"

"Hurry up, host. 925 can take care of things here in a bit. Go take a shower and go to sleep. You have to go to work early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, okay!" Bai Nuo sighed softly, and without further delay, she left 925 with arrangements for the follow-up work, and then quickly went back to the pavilion to take a shower, change clothes, and go to sleep.

For the next few days, Bai Nuo worked diligently in the stable, occasionally going up the mountain to gather some wild vegetables and mountain produce, and then going home to prepare medicinal wine.

Sometimes, she would take Wei Jia with her to set traps in the back mountain. They didn't keep any of the pheasants or rabbits they caught for themselves; they made them all into cured meat, which they planned to send to their grandparents later.

There's also Sister A-Chong and her family in Shanghai. On the day of the long holiday, when they went to the post office savings bank to clock in, they stopped by the post office next door and found out that there was indeed a letter for her.

It was written by Sister A-Chong from Shanghai. She also told her not to suffer, and that she could write or call her if she needed anything.

Perfect timing! I'll mail the letter and package to Sister A-Chong during my next holiday.

Bai Nuo has had a very comfortable and fulfilling few days. It would have been even better if there hadn't been a fly that came along to try and bump into her.

Xu Baoqiang was a notorious lazybones in Qishui Brigade. He was rarely seen in the brigade, spending his days either sleeping at home or wandering around the county. Recently, however, he had changed his ways, dressing smartly and strolling around the brigade all day long. He had even started calling Hu Ziqiang "brother" without anyone noticing.

Bai Nuo even saw him six times in three days at the educated youth compound!

As the only son of the third branch of the Xu family, Xu Laosan and his wife practically raised him like royalty. Moreover, from a young age, they taught their other daughters to be obsessed with their younger brother, to be crazy about him, and to bang their heads against the wall for him.

The entire Xu family, across all three branches, gave Xu Baoqiang everything they could. For anything else, the Xu family elders went to great lengths to get it back for their son.

When Bai Nuo heard the people from the animal husbandry team talking about this, she once thought that Xu Baoqiang must have been the savior of Xu Laosan and his wife for ten lifetimes.

She originally just listened to it as gossip, but this person has been appearing more and more frequently lately, and he's always trying to find ways to get attention from her. Besides... this person is so greasy it's nauseating.

Bai Nuo felt that she was about to lose her ability to be a human being!

"Xianhua, does the Xu family, who live on the west side of the village, have a young, unmarried daughter?" After finishing work today, Bai Nuo sat in front of her small house, picking vegetables while looking at her friends not far away.

“His family does have another daughter who isn’t married yet. She’s nineteen this year, and her name is Xu Laidi.” Chao Xianhua nodded, then picked up her little stool, too lazy to straighten up, and quickly slipped over to Bai Nuo’s side with small, bent-over steps.

Sun Yuxi and Qin Xuehua exchanged a glance and moved over as well, not forgetting to bring the vegetables they were picking with them.

"What happened?" Sun Yuxi asked Bai Nuo curiously.

"Is it because of Xu Baoqiang?" Qin Xuehua noticed that Bai Nuo's expression was a bit off, and suddenly remembered a piece of news she had overheard while chatting with an aunt from the same team in the fields that morning. Her brows furrowed slightly.

"What Xu Baoqiang? What happened to Nuonuo? Did he flirt with you?" Sun Yuxi's face immediately turned cold.

In Sun Yuxi's memories of her past life, that guy was nothing but a stench.

That was a despicable scoundrel who used disgusting methods to marry a sent-down youth. As a result, because he didn't get any benefits, he and his family almost tortured her to death after the marriage.

Unfortunately, Sun Yuxi couldn't remember who the educated youth Xu Baoqiang had used to marry was.

She didn't know if it was because she had been reborn for a long time, or because she had more and better reliable friends in this life, which made her life so different from her previous life, causing those memories that she hated so much in her previous life to gradually become blurred.

In fact, Sun Yuxi was happy about this change. When she realized that many of her memories from her previous life were starting to blur, she was first bewildered, and then excited.

Because she was so incredibly stupid in her past life, hopelessly stupid, that she felt she deserved to die.

If she could forget it, it would actually be a good thing for her in this life.

But a few things remained vivid in her memory, as if they were constantly warning her.

For example, stay away from Chai Shiming, stay away from everything related to Chai Shiming, and reinstate the college entrance examination.

Sun Yuxi glanced at her friends beside her, clenched her fists tightly, and resolved that she would lead them all to university and create a bright future together.

She would never abandon anyone!

Bai Nuo had no idea that her best friend already had a very firm goal, a goal that would make her, who hated studying, cry, and cry loudly.

All she wants to do right now is swat that dead fly, but she has this quirk: if you torment me even a little, I'll make sure your whole family suffers for the rest of their lives.

She now feels that Xu Baoqiang, that rotten fly, is tormenting her eyes and ears, and she only wants his whole family to suffer.

Don't talk about not extending blame to family members; she has absolutely no sense of morality or ethics!
