Chapter 124 Aunt Liu was deceived and was missing the last ingredient of medicine!
"Are you sure you want to use this name?"
Su Ran hesitated for a moment when asked this question: "Wait a minute."
Considering that if Meng Haichang had not insisted on asking him to search, Su Ran would not have discovered the existence of the new subspecies.
And if the girl hadn't provided the key information earlier, Meng Haichang wouldn't have insisted afterwards.
So everything is causally related.
So Su Ran first contacted Meng Haichang to ask for his suggestions on naming the new subspecies as the linhai lancehead pit viper.
Meng Haichang said that the name was very suitable, and when he learned that his name would be included in the naming this time, he was extremely excited.
Even on the other end of the phone, one could clearly hear the old professor crying with joy.
"Thank you, thank you so much, little anchor."
"You're welcome. I should thank you."
For Meng Haichang, being the discoverer of the linhai pit viper has made him more famous in the industry and will also be of unexpected help to his career.
After contacting the old professor, Su Ran found the contact information of the girl from before, but after several attempts to contact her, he was unsuccessful and her phone was always turned off.
At this time, in the girls' dormitory of Forestry University, Xia Xiaomeng was lying on the bed in a very bad mood. Her mobile phone had been turned off for a long time and she had no intention of charging it.
Xia Xiaomeng is a freshman at the Forestry University and a climbing enthusiast of the Peak Club. Because she entered the forest without permission and got trapped, she was also criticized by the school.
As a result, I lost my scholarship and was criticized by my parents, who deducted a lot of my pocket money.
Just when she was feeling depressed, the voices of the dormitory manager and the principal were heard outside the corridor.
"Student Xia Xiaomeng, the principal is here to see you." The voice of the dormitory manager sounded outside the door.
headmaster?
Why did the principal come to see me at this time? Is he going to criticize and educate me again?
Xia Xiaomeng was worried. She got up and opened the door, and saw the principal looking at her in a kind manner, without any of his previous sternness.
"Student Xia Xiaomeng, in view of your outstanding performance, the school is going to remove the notification about you and award you with a full scholarship."
Hearing this, Xia Xiaomeng thought she was dreaming until the principal told her that she had brought honor to the school as the discoverer and namer of the Linhaiyuan pit viper.
She was delighted after understanding the whole story.
A quick look online revealed that a large number of official accounts had begun reporting the news of the discovery of a new species, the linhaiyuan pit viper.
As the first discoverer, Su Ran has also attracted a lot of attention.
Among them are two others, Professor Meng Haichang and freshman Xia Xiaomeng.
It is such a great fortune that my name appears at the same time as these two big guys!
The Linhaiyuan lancehead pit viper was successfully included in the record, and the Forestry Department also officially included it in the National Wildlife Protection Law as a first-class protected animal.
As the first discoverer, Su Ran also received a reward of 200,000 yuan in cash from the Forestry Department.
Su Ran, who had a bag of money in his hand, never expected to have such an unexpected gain.
Chen Sisi said excitedly, "Su Ran, that's great. I didn't expect you would have such an unexpected gain on this mission."
The old man was also particularly pleased.
Two hundred thousand is not a small amount.
Let’s say an average family can only save about 200,000 yuan in two years, and this is the most ideal situation.
Excluding various expenses such as food and drink, there are not many families that can directly come up with 200,000 yuan in cash.
With this unexpected money, Su Ran went to town in the afternoon and bought a lot of delicious food.
Beef, pork trotters, seafood, and abalone filled the entire freezer.
"Okay, Grandpa, now the food in the freezer is enough for our family to eat for a long time."
Of course, Dahei and the others also had plenty to eat. The little guys all had their favorite food, and they were very happy to gather together and eat.
After dinner, Su Ran prepared the meal at Aunt Wang's house and planned to have dinner with Chen Sisi's family tonight.
The laughter in the cabin was very interesting.
However, suddenly, the voice of Aunt Liu crying out in grief came from the house next door.
"What's going on in Aunt Liu's house?" Su Ran asked curiously.
Aunt Wang lives next to Aunt Liu, so she should know the most. However, when she saw everyone looking at her, she smiled and shook her head: "Don't look at me, I don't know either. But it seems that Aunt Liu's son and daughter-in-law came back today, but I don't think I saw her grandson."
Su Ran still remembers that Aunt Liu once gave her a red egg. At that time, she said that her daughter-in-law had given birth to a big fat grandson, and she was so happy.
Why is the house in such a mess now?
And judging from the noise next door, there's no sign of them stopping.
He smashed pots and pans and muttered that he didn't want to live anymore.
Even if you try to turn a deaf ear to what's happening outside, you can't stand the noise.
"I'll go take a look." Fearing that something might have gone wrong, Su Ran stood up and prepared to go take a look.
Chen Sisi also followed at this time.
The two men arrived at Aunt Liu's door, and a water scoop fell at their feet.
Su Ran picked up the cracked ladle and put it aside, then saw Aunt Liu sitting in the main room sobbing, with her son and daughter-in-law standing beside them with helpless looks on their faces.
"Why, Aunt Liu, you can't sit on the ground no matter what happens."
Su Ran went forward and helped Aunt Liu up. As if she had found an outlet for her emotions, Aunt Liu grabbed Su Ran's arm.
Then she pointed at her disappointing son angrily and said, "Xiao Ran, please judge for yourself. I worked so hard to raise this kid, but I didn't expect that he would cheat on his own mother."
"And her!"
Aunt Liu stared at her daughter-in-law with resentment: "When we got married, my family gave a lot of gifts, and I even gave you my only gold bracelet, which was a relic left to me by my mother! You...you actually teamed up with my son to deceive me, it's really...really..."
"I'm furious!"
Aunt Liu fainted without even catching her breath.
The son and daughter-in-law rushed over anxiously, and Su Ran stopped them and said, "It's okay, she just fainted from being too excited. Wait for me to go back and get the needles and give your mother an acupuncture treatment."
Su Ran went home to get the silver needles and used his knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine to apply acupuncture to Aunt Liu's acupuncture points.
After a few injections, Aunt Liu's breathing became much smoother.
"Okay, basically there's no big problem. Just wait for her to wake up on her own."
Aunt Liu's son Zhang Dapeng kept expressing his gratitude to Su Ran. Su Ran said that any small effort was thanks to the fellow villagers.
However, all the words were in his heart. After all, if Su Ran hadn't helped, Zhang Dapeng was really worried that something might happen to his mother.
"So, if you can tell me, what happened? What made your mother so angry?"
Su Ran knew Aunt Liu's personality. She was tall and bold. She couldn't change it. She was fine.
But he is a kind person, which can be seen at a glance after spending so much time together.
Su Ran's question made Zhang Dapeng couldn't help but lament, and even his wife felt helpless.
-
Especially his daughter-in-law Liu Lili, who felt that she was particularly wronged.
How could her mother-in-law say that about her?
After all, this matter has little to do with her.
Under Su Ran's questioning, Zhang Dapeng sighed and said, "Brother Su, this matter is quite helpless. My mother's greatest wish in this life is to hold a grandson or granddaughter as soon as possible."
"She doesn't favor boys over girls. As long as there is one, it's fine."
"So from the time I was urged to get married to the time I got married to Lili for six years, I was always thinking about this."
It is completely understandable that the older generation wants to see their descendants, just like the old man’s biggest wish now is that Su Ran can get married and have children as soon as possible.
"So you two are not..."
There was no need to keep asking, Su Ran already had a general idea of it.
Chen Sisi beside him is not stupid either. They have been married for six years and either they don't want to have children or they can't. Otherwise, there is no third factor.
Zhang Dapeng nodded with some difficulty, but still said: "I went to the hospital for a check-up several years ago, and it was not my wife's problem. The doctor told me to take good care of myself, but I just couldn't get pregnant."
"My mother was pushing me hard, and she was getting old, so a few years ago, I lied to her and said that my wife had given her a grandson."
Su Ran: “…”
"Don't you two want to video chat?"
"I borrowed the baby from the neighbor next door."
Chen Sisi: “6”
Zhang Dapeng now feels that his behavior is ridiculous: "There is nothing I can do about it."
"Brother Su, I often watch your live broadcasts. I know you have studied Chinese medicine, so can you help me?"
Changing the subject, Zhang Dapeng looked at Su Ran pleadingly, wanting him to help him.
"I haven't treated anyone's infertility before." Su Ran really had never done that, so he didn't have much confidence.
"We should give it our all, and I believe in your ability, Su Shen!"
The first time Su Ran heard his neighbor call him Su Shen, he felt it was strange.
Thinking that Aunt Liu was nice to her and they were all from the same village, Su Ran also wanted to help Zhang Dapeng to the best of her ability.
The most common TCM treatment for infertility is medication.
If you don’t die from drinking, drink until you die.
But if you really want to maintain a healthy body, you can't just rely on drinking blindly.
Su Ran extracted a set of prescriptions for treating infertility from his mind and wrote them down on paper.
The effect of the prescription accounts for 40%, and the effect of the medicinal materials accounts for 60%.
No matter how good the prescription is, it will be useless if the medicinal materials are not good. This is why someone was willing to bid a million to buy the wild Polygonum multiflorum that Su Ran dug up.
The next day, Su Ran started the live broadcast and prepared to go up the mountain to collect herbs.
I went to see Aunt Liu on purpose.
My aunt has woken up now, but she locked herself in the room and didn't eat much. It seems that she is still angry with her son and daughter-in-law.
Su Ran shook her head.
After telling netizens the purpose of his trip up the mountain, the audience couldn't help but feel sorry for Su Ran.
"I didn't expect that Su Shen had such a wide range of part-time jobs. Not only does he have to patrol the mountains and forests and crack down on criminals every day, he also has to help people with infertility."
"Haha, Brother Su is still very busy, but infertility is a mystery. Some people may be able to cure it by just taking some medicine, but for some people, even taking medicine bottles is useless."
Now, there are over one million people watching Su Ran’s live broadcast room.
Among so many people, there are many who cannot have children due to various health reasons.
They told Su Ran from their own experience that this matter was not so easy to resolve.
But Su Ran was still confident, otherwise he would not have agreed to it.
After wandering around in the mountains for a morning, there were already a lot of wild herbs in the basket.
However, Su Ran and Da Hei had no intention of going back.
"Haven't you found enough herbs yet, Sugo?"
"No, we are still missing one last herb."
"What is it?"
"Wild yellow."
In rural areas, Rehmannia glutinosa is often mistaken for a common weed.
But its hidden value is immeasurable.
Especially in rural areas in the north, people do not have a deep understanding of it and often eradicate it inadvertently.
However, for those who are familiar with its effects, the root of the wild rehmannia root holds amazing medicinal potential.
Su Ran has the ability to find plant clues, so it’s not that he can’t find the wild Rehmannia glutinosa, but the number of wild Rehmannia glutinosa existing in the forest of Qijiaqiao is too scarce.
It was not until just before noon that Su Ran discovered one.
In the camera, the cluster of purple flowers attracted netizens in the live broadcast room.
The shape is like an exquisite wine jug, especially the sweet nectar hidden inside the flower, which makes Dahei unable to help but lick it, and his mouth instantly feels full of fragrance.
"Wow, it looks so good. It looks like morning glory."
"No, it's so hard to find medicinal herbs, but Dahei ruined them. Brother Su, can't you stop him?"
Su Ran squatted down and touched Dahei's head, and said to the audience: "It doesn't matter. The real treasure of wild rehmannia is in the roots. The flowers on top are useless."
As he spoke, Su Ran began to dig.
"There's more over there!"
After working for a few minutes, Su Ran soon harvested a lot of wild Rehmannia glutinosa.
Looking at the wild yellow potatoes lying on the ground that looked like small sweet potatoes, Suran felt particularly satisfied.
"Don't underestimate this stuff. It comes from the family Scrophulariaceae and its historical application can be traced back thousands of years."
"As early as in the Compendium of Materia Medica, Li Shizhen praised it highly, calling it a nourishing holy product for men and a source of blood for women, which shows that the ancients had a deep understanding of its value."
After hearing Su Ran’s exaggerated statement, many netizens were curious whether this thing could really be useful?
A black-hearted Chinese medicine practitioner who has been in the industry for more than ten years said in the live broadcast room: "As long as it is in the Compendium of Materia Medica, it is effective. The anchor does not have a deep understanding of Chinese medicine, but he is bragging about it. It is simply a child's play to want to cure infertility with some wild herbs."
"I suggest that if you really have infertility problems, you should come to our Zilaitang for treatment."
Wow, they started advertising right away, are they that shameless?
Many netizens searched for Jilaitang on the Internet and found out that there were so many negative reviews.
"@Zi Lai Tang Fang Shen Yi, I say you are a miracle doctor, why do so many people on the Internet say you are a liar? Are you a black-hearted Chinese medicine practitioner?"
Fang Youde, who had just checked out of the luxury box and sent his mistress away, saw someone questioning him in the barrage.
He immediately said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, you little brat! I am a licensed practitioner, protected and certified by the Chinese Medicine Association. If you slander me again, be careful to receive a lawyer's letter!"
"Oh my, oh my, they're actually going to give me Green Corpse Cold, I'm so scared!"
"I don't want Green Corpse Cold that's not my brother's."
"It's black-hearted Chinese medicine practitioners like you who ruin the reputation of Chinese medicine. It's disgusting!"
Seeing that the wind direction in the live broadcast room was somewhat discordant, Su Ran said: "Okay, don't worry about him. Now I'm going to go back to eat lunch and then I'll prepare the medicine."
When we returned to Aunt Wang's house, Aunt Wang was having a heart-to-heart talk with Aunt Liu.
After all, as someone who has been through this, Aunt Wang’s persuasion was very effective. Although Aunt Liu was still very depressed, at least she was willing to eat.
"Don't worry, auntie. With Xiaoran around, you will definitely have your grandson soon." Aunt Wang gently patted Aunt Liu's arm to comfort her.
At this time, Zhang Dapeng also came back from home with his wife and excitedly found Su Ran: "Brother Su, now that you have found the herbs, can we prepare to start making the medicine?"
He had just come back after seeing in the live broadcast room that Su Ran had found all the necessary herbs.
However, Su Ran shook his head: "I have the herbs, but I'm still missing a herbal medicine."
"What is it?"
“Rat shit.”
