Fortunately, by ten o’clock in the morning, apart from Ganoderma lucidum, all the herbs that could be found on the mountain had basically been gathered.

Liu Changning leaned against a large tree and took out the brown rice balls cooked by her cheap husband yesterday. She ate them in small bites with clear water.

With renewed strength, she ventured deeper into the mountains without stopping.

Wild Ganoderma lucidum mostly grew at the base of broad-leaved trees and on rotten wood. Only the branches and leaves that grew in the deep forest were more lush, so she had to go deeper and try her luck.

Along the way, although she didn’t find Ganoderma lucidum, she did find a few other medicinal materials. Liu Changning carefully protected the roots of the herbs with a small trowel and harvested them intact.

The original owner was penniless and extremely poor, so their future livelihood was a problem. At this time, she could only gather some medicinal materials to exchange for some silver in the town, temporarily improving their diet.

The vegetation in the western mountains was lush, and the deeper Liu Changning went, the more difficult the path became. Her feet slipped, and she almost lost her balance. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a large tree with dense shrubs. Liu Changning had sharp eyes and noticed a black reflective surface hidden in the gaps of the shrubs. She approached and pushed aside the shrubs. To her surprise, there were two large black Ganoderma lucidum.

Liu Changning curved her lips, her moist eyes carrying a hint of a smile. She carefully protected the roots of the Ganoderma lucidum and harvested the two large black specimens, placing them in the basket and covering them with a layer of tattered cloth.

As the saying goes, wealth should not be displayed. When going down the mountain, she would inevitably encounter fellow villagers. If someone noticed, it would inevitably lead to trouble.

Liu Changning wasn’t afraid of arguing, but she disliked trouble.

By the time she returned home, it was already late afternoon. The rice balls she had eaten at noon were filling, so she wasn’t hungry at the moment.

However, her body was exceptionally sore, having spent three to four hours on the mountain, and her body could no longer bear it.

Liu Changning glanced at the medicinal materials in the bamboo basket and hesitated for a moment before heading to the kitchen to boil water for a medicinal bath.

The original owner used to do simple carpentry work, and there were actually two wooden tubs for bathing in the house.

She found an iron pot to decoct the herbs, removed her clothes, and directly immersed herself in the wooden tub.

Sitting cross-legged, she closed her eyes and activated the Qi cultivation technique. The impurities in her body were visibly expelled as dirty residue. After half an hour, she opened her eyes, and by this time, her body was reeking.

Liu Changning held her breath, put on her clothes, and poured the medicinal water into the latrine. She then fetched hot water and once again immersed her entire body in the clear water.

The person reflected in the clear water now had a much better complexion, and her skin had slightly improved. Although not obvious, it was much better than the first day she transmigrated.

Liu Changning rested her chin on her hand. She had used a small dose of herbs, otherwise, if the original owner’s skin suddenly became white and delicate, it would arouse suspicion and be troublesome. Moreover, there was currently a cheap husband whose background was unknown and who brought trouble with him.

It was never a bad idea to be cautious in everything.

Just as she was contemplating this, the wooden door was suddenly kicked open.

Liu Changning looked up.

The cheap husband was furious, his black hair distinct strand by strand as he stood backlit.

His peach blossom eyes were blazing with anger, and his crimson lips were about to lash out.

But as he lowered his head, his gaze fell on her naked body. His mouth slightly agape, the angry expression froze on his face.

He paused, and a red flush uncontrollably spread from his earlobes all the way to the side of his neck.

Turning his eyes away, he couldn’t help but scold, “Shameless, □□!”

With a “bang,” he closed the wooden door.

The old cadre Liu Changning: …

Who was the one being seen naked? Come back and explain yourself.
