Sun Hui took three pieces of grass from under the table, placed them neatly on the table, and looked at Lan Anran with a smile.
"These were the three kinds of herbs used in the experimental class today. Tell me what they are and their medicinal properties."
Lan Anran stepped forward and looked at them, a smile appearing on her face.
Aren't these the three herbs used in her Three Ingredient Medicinal Soup?
This was too simple.
Sun Hui looked at the smile on Lan Anran's face, thinking that Anran was stumped and the smile was used to conceal her guilty conscience.
She spent a great deal of effort to find these three pieces of grass. They grew in extremely harsh environments and generally wouldn't be known by people from the countryside.
A countryside girl like Lan Anran might recognise wild flowers and wild grass, but she couldn't possibly know about something so good.
However, the next second, the smile was wiped off Sun Hui's face.
Lan Anran named the herbs easily.
"The one on the left is called Gynostemma Pentaphyllum. It has anti-inflammatory, detoxifying, cough inhibiting and expectorant effects. It can be made as tea and is mainly used for physical weakness and some chronic inflammations. The Bidens in the middle can clear away heat and detoxify, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and reduce blood pressure. The light bamboo leaf on the right is called Ophiopogon Japonicus. It is a diuretic, produces fluids to quench thirst, tongue sores, etc. Do you have anything else? That was too simple, don't tell me it is the test paper question you spent so much effort to find?"

Li Yue was stunned. How did she know all of these? This information was only found in the Institute of Medicine textbooks and it wouldn't be easy to have them memorised.
Sun Hui was stunned for several seconds. Her mouth was wide open and she couldn't believe what happened.
She actually knows these herbs!?
Gah!
It actually hadn't stumped her. This was new information she had just learnt.
The other classmates were in disbelief and were asking how Lan Anran could have known about them.
Suddenly, someone said that it was normal for her to know about these since she was from the countryside. After all, is there anything the countryside didn't have?

This statement convinced everyone and some thought that it was a coincidence.
When Sun Hui heard this, she was certain Anran was lucky and that it wasn't strange for someone from the countryside to recognise these herbs.
This was dumb luck and she couldn't possibly be so fortunate next time.
"How was that? If there are no more questions, Ms. Li, can I sit?"
Lan Anran smiled.
Li Yue was stunned for a moment. Since Sun Hui didn't protest further, she nodded.
"You can sit next to Zhao Xiaolei."

Sun Hui watched Lan Anran sit.
