Chapter 154 Lazy Philosophy
Finally, she could no longer contain the urge welling up inside her, and carefully picked up a new medicinal twist, imitating the way adults ground medicine with a serious little look that undoubtedly made her Su Yu’s most capable little assistant.
Time flew like an arrow, and before she knew it, only a little more than ten days remained until the follow-up appointment with the Grand Commandant’s Wife. Su Yu knew she had to pick up the pace and prepare several more effective medicines in advance to bring along all at once when the time came.
With Xixi, the little helper, the efficiency of medicine production had greatly improved.
One night, as thunderstorms clashed, a dazzling bolt of lightning split the sky, illuminating everything inside the house, followed by a thunderous roar that rolled in, signaling an imminent downpour.
During this period, the rain seemed to have a particular fondness for the land, pouring down nearly every day without fail.
Su Yu’s thoughts stirred, and she considered adding a rainproof canopy to the family’s carriage to prevent getting drenched and ending up like a soaked chicken when traveling in the rain.
In the forest after the rain, it was the best season for mushrooms to thrive; those little umbrella mushrooms hiding under the withered leaves, once picked and stewed with tender chicken meat, would produce a flavor that could surely make one forget mundane concerns.
As she indulged in these delightful musings, Jiang Ziling suddenly mentioned, "The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon."
Those simple five words instantly ignited Su Yu’s interest—this was her first traditional festival in the otherworld, which held significant meaning.
"What customs do you have here for the Dragon Boat Festival?" she asked with eager eyes, already impatient to experience the festive atmosphere of this otherworldly holiday.
Curiosity sparkled in Su Yu’s eyes as she cautiously probed Jiang Ziling, trying to uncover the unique customs of this time-space festival, secretly hoping to find a fascinating tradition that differed from what she knew from the future.
