Chapter 861 Who are these people?
When Su Yunyun heard Wenhan's exclamation, she looked in the direction of the voice.
Then he asked, "Wenhan, come and tell mom, what are you talking about?"
Hongbo was also very curious about what Wenhan was pointing at.
But he didn't know what it was, so he could only look at Wenhan with confused eyes, waiting for Wenhan to answer his question.
Wenhan tried hard to recall the knowledge points he had read in the book before, then walked forward to observe carefully, organized his words, and said, "The roots are thick, the plant is unbranched, and very few have branches at the top; the leaves are ovate, ovate-elliptical to lanceolate, and the leaf edges are finely serrated; the corolla is generally gamopetalous, blue or purple."
Then he turned around and looked at Su Yunyun, "Mom, what month is it now?"
Su Yunyun was relieved. She understood that Wenhan was confirming with her whether what he was thinking was correct. "It's late July now."
"Then I guessed right," Wenhan smiled happily, "The flowering period is from July to September, and the fruiting period is from August to October. At that time, the fruit is spherical or obovate, which means this is Platycodon grandiflorum."
"Then mom will test you. What are the medicinal effects of Platycodon grandiflorum?" Su Yunyun nodded and began to test Wenhan.
"Plantago can be used as medicine. It is recorded in Shennong's Herbal Classic: "It tastes spicy and slightly warm. It is used to treat chest and flank pain as if stabbed by a knife; abdominal distension and intestinal rumbling; fear and palpitations." It has the effects of clearing the lungs, relieving sore throat, and removing phlegm. It is used to treat symptoms such as sore throat, hoarseness, cough and excessive sputum. People with gastric and duodenal ulcers should take it with caution. Excessive dosage can easily cause nausea and vomiting." Wenhan recited it without thinking.
"Not bad, not bad," Su Yunyun praised Wenhan, "You have memorized the pharmacology knowledge very well, but mom also tells you that this fresh Platycodon root can also be eaten as a vegetable. Platycodon pickles are one of the special foods of the Korean ethnic group!"
"Mom, this flower is very beautiful. Can we plant it at home for viewing?" Hongbo doesn't know pharmacology, but he thinks this flower is very beautiful. "If possible, we can plant some in our yard. It will be very beautiful."
"Hongbo, you are right," Su Yunyun touched Hongbo's head, "Platycodon grandiflorum can be used as an ornamental plant. It has a flower language, which is 'eternal love'."
"Mom, let's plant it later!" Hongbo was very happy. "When we get back to Beijing, I will tell grandma and grandpa to plant it."
"Good!" Su Yunyun thought this suggestion was not bad. "Platycodon grandiflorum likes light and a cool environment. It is cold-resistant and drought-resistant, but afraid of waterlogging. It likes fertile, moist, and well-drained loose soil. It is easy to grow!"
"Mom, why are there so many Platycodon grandiflorums planted here?" Wenhan asked curiously after Su Yunyun finished speaking.
"Mom doesn't know either," Su Yunyun looked at the place with platycodon. There were no crops around, so it looked like it was growing wild. "Mom will ask the village chief later!"
"Then mom, let's go back now," Wenhan couldn't wait to pull Su Yunyun back, "I also want to know why."
Su Yunyun was pulled forward by Wenhan, "You are a small kid, but you are very strong!"
"Mom, our military boxing training was not in vain." Hongbo replied, jumping aside.
"Don't be in a hurry. Let's take a look. It won't be too late to go find the village chief later." Su Yunyun wanted to walk around some more.
"No, Mom, let's go ask first before we go shopping!" Wenhan's curiosity made him pull Su Yunyun forward.
"Okay!" Seeing this, Su Yunyun gave up the idea of going shopping again and walked back with them the way they came.
It was just because the three of them walked a little far, and most of the houses around them looked the same, so they got lost in a short while.
When Su Yunyun realized something was wrong, she stopped immediately and said, "Hongbo, Wenhan, stop for a moment. We seem to have gone the wrong way."
Hongbo and Wenhan stopped walking when they heard this. "Mom, everything here is the same. How do you know we are lost?"
"I remember that it took us about 20 minutes to walk from the battalion headquarters to the place with gentian, excluding the time we stayed at the Martyrs' Monument. But we have been walking for half an hour and haven't even seen the shadow of the battalion headquarters." Su Yunyun said softly.
"What should we do? Will we be unable to go back?" Wenhan was very worried.
But Hongbo patted his chest and said, "What are you afraid of? It's just getting lost. I have a way."
Su Yunyun and Wenhan looked at Hongbo, "What can you do?"
"Isn't the mouth right below the nose? I'll find out if I ask someone." Hongbo said this without any hesitation. He looked around and saw many people standing at the gate of his yard, looking at them curiously.
Then Hongbo strode over and asked a middle-aged man, "Uncle, we are lost and want to ask you for directions."
The man was very simple. "Lost? You look like city people. Why are you here? And where are you from?"
"We're from..." Hongbo did not deny that he was a city dweller. It was useless to deny it because of his attire. He thought he could just tell where he came from, but suddenly he got stuck.
He turned to look at Su Yunyun, "Mom, where did we come from?"
"I don't know either," Su Yunyun was confused by this question. They came here with Shen Hong and Xiao Tian, and never asked the name of the village. "Mom forgot to ask."
"Okay!" Hongbo gave up asking further questions and didn't wait for Su Yunyun to come forward to help. He said to the man directly, "We all forgot to ask the name of the village, but there is a martyrs' monument in that village."
"There are also some in several villages around us." The man felt helpless when he heard this index condition.
This clue is too subtle.
"Ah?" Hongbo was stunned for a moment because he didn't expect this answer. "There are many blue and purple gentian flowers in that village."
"What is Platycodon?" The man was even more confused. "I don't know what Platycodon is, but I know blue or purple flowers. The only place around here that has this flower is Xiaoliu Village next door."
"Xiao Liuzhuang?" Hongbo was very happy when he heard it. "Then please tell us how to get there, uncle!"
Seeing that Hongbo really asked the question, Su Yunyun hurriedly thanked the man, "Comrade, thank you so much!"
The man waved his hand and said, "It's just a question of asking for directions. It's not worth your thanks."
The man then showed the three people the way. Seeing that they were still a little confused, he said, "Forget it. I have nothing to do right now. I'll take you to the village entrance!"
Su Yunyun thanked him repeatedly and followed the man.
Before he had walked a few steps, a villager came towards him, "Dachun, where are you going? And who are these people?"
