Chapter 66 The Unremarkable Little Grass

Wen Chengbin responded earlier, "Yes, my sister is right, hehe."

Wen Chengjian's lips twitched as he glanced at it. He really wanted to say, "With your dagger by our side, it's definitely the right thing to do. Without that dagger, it would be a real struggle. If a dozen more came, I don't know how I'd handle it." Where did his sister get her confidence in their martial arts? Even they themselves couldn't guarantee it.

"Yes, we finally managed to kill more than a dozen wolves. My second brother and I were unharmed, and my third uncle and the others are also fine. Grandfather, don't worry, we know what we're doing."

Wenwen suddenly leaned closer and whispered, "Grandpa, I've collected all those wolves. I'll skin them and make fur coats for you and Grandma each. When it snows tomorrow, we'll walk on the road all warm and cozy, and we'll be the coolest kids in the exile group, hahaha..."

Wenwen's nonsensical jokes left her family at a loss for what to do with her.

Of course, there will be no shortage of followers and supporters.

Wen Chengfeng, as the number one fan, chimed in, "My sister is right. Those wolf pelts can definitely be made into two big cloaks. When Grandpa and Grandma wear them, they'll look incredibly impressive. Others will only be envious. We earned them through our own abilities, so no one can say anything about it."

Wen Yuanqian's beard twitched as he was coaxed by the two men, and his cough was instantly cured.

"You are so filial. Your grandparents did not spoil you for nothing."

"That's right, my grandparents are the pillars of our family."

"I'm really looking forward to my grandfather taking me out to make my fortune, hehe."

Wen Qiyuan has finally seen another side of Wen Wen.

Wen Qilin, however, remained clear-headed. "Alright, you two, stop making fun of your grandfather and stop interrupting."

He changed the subject, "Erlang, you just said that after we killed the wolf, many other animals came? What do you mean?"

Wen Qiyuan was still worried. "I just told you to focus on the important points, not to go into every little detail. Now you can elaborate on this, but don't add any unnecessary adjectives."

Wen Chengbin looked miserable. It's either you let me say it or you don't let me say it. He's having a really tough time.

Wenwen suppressed a laugh as she overheard her second uncle's rambling on to her second brother. She thought to herself, "So my second brother's talkativeness comes from my second uncle. Just look at how my second uncle is chanting sutras like a monk. My second brother has it tough."

Wenwen sat down and listened attentively to his story. As one of the main group members, she was very useful and needed to be quick to step in when needed.

Wen Chengbin mentally scoffed a few times, suppressing the urge to roll his eyes. He swallowed hard, blinked, composed himself, and replied, "After we finished fighting the wolves—no, not quite finished. My brother and I were really serious at first, but then, the wolves suddenly turned around and started fighting over a few, a few, um, um..."

Oh, she's stuck. Wenwen took out a card about Star Lotus Grass and handed it over. "Grandfather, look at this. This is what the wolves are after."

Everyone in the family was very curious about what it was, and they all stared longingly at the familiar card in front of Wen Yuanqian.

Wen Yuanqian took it, quickly glanced through it, hesitated for a moment after reading, and then handed it to Wen Qilin.

So, the family members passed the card around.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, every member of the Wen family who wanted to read and could read exchanged glances, wanting to speak but unsure of where to begin.

Wenwen looked at everyone, understood, and took out a bundle of grass from the darkness. "Yes, this is it."

She was about to hand one to each person for a closer look when Wen Chengjian stopped her in time, saying, "Sister, don't do that, quickly take them back. So many of them might attract attention, and you know what will happen."

Wen Chengbin also held her hand, "There are many elderly people and children here, it's too dangerous." He raised his index finger, "Just one, just one to pass around and see."

Wen Qikang and Wen Chengfeng also strongly agreed.

Wenwen almost beat herself to death. How could she have forgotten about this? It seems that the miraculous effect of this herb has actually limited its exposure to sunlight.

Wenwen held a thin blade of grass between two fingers, pursed her lips, and handed it over, saying, "Grandfather, here you go."

And so, by the light of the fire, this little blade of grass, unknown to anyone, was passed from one another.

The Wen family examined it closely as it passed from one person to another, offering their opinions and critiques.

"It's inconspicuous, and so tiny."

"Just like a willow sapling, it doesn't smell like anything."

"The roots feel a bit prickly to the touch, oh my, they're like little thorns, but they don't hurt or itch when they prick you."

Wenwen listened to everyone's comments and looked at the tender blade of grass. She was really worried that the little grass wouldn't be able to withstand everyone's scrutiny and would be crushed sooner or later.

Suddenly, Madam Ye (Second Aunt) said softly, "I do smell a faint fragrance, but it's very faint. Wen'er, this one is twice as effective, right?" Madam Ye pointed to the tile to confirm.

Wenwen nodded, "Second Aunt, this contains Star Lotus Grass. According to your method, it should explode with a bang when it's almost finished." She then gestured with her hand to illustrate the explosion.

Ye pondered for a moment, "Is the tile... for detoxification?"

"Yes, I added a tiny bit of this herb."

Wen Qilin clenched his fists, nervously staring at the inconspicuous little grass in front of him. The light in his eyes gave people a glimmer of hope. He patted his knee and asked quietly, "Second brother, this medicine is still a semi-finished product. It was made by Wen'er and the others in their foolishness. We mustn't let anything go wrong."

Wen Qiyuan couldn't care less about anything else. He was a little excited. "Brother, I'm in this state now. There's nothing to hesitate about. Give it to me, and I'll eat it right away."

Rake Combination: ...

That's too hasty. The half-finished product hasn't even been removed from the tile yet, and it still contains a lot of pebbles.

Wenwen reminded him, "Second Uncle, that semi-finished product still needs some processing. Please wait a little longer."

Ye suppressed her excitement and said confidently, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away."

Before turning around, she hesitated for a moment, then turned back and said, "Brother, your sister-in-law is not very skilled. When I examined your leg, the bone seemed to be half broken and half intact, so I didn't dare to prescribe any medicine for you. I was thinking of waiting until we got to town and saw a doctor before deciding on a prescription."

Wen Qilin was momentarily stunned. How did the conversation turn to him? Besides, he felt that his leg pain had lessened considerably. Wasn't he gradually getting better?

"My leg is not so painful anymore. It's just a little difficult to walk. It will get better slowly, so there's no need to worry."

Yao Changhao jumped in to make his presence known, "Yeah, I see that Big Brother is walking much more steadily than before. Wouldn't it be very painful if half of it broke?"

"That makes sense. I know my own legs."

Zhou Kangyan was not to be outdone, and he spoke alarmistly, "The worst thing is that the broken half grows crooked, and then we'll have to break it off again."

"Break it off?"

Wenwen suddenly realized something was wrong. Her fruit had actually done more harm than good. She had intended to promote wound healing and reduce pain, which would be beneficial for them, but it had backfired on her father. This outcome was unexpected.

She felt a pang of guilt and glanced at Wen Qilin, hesitant to speak.
