After Gu Qingming returned home with her grandmother, the latterwent to find the first aid kit, took out the ointment, found the wound, and applied the ointment.

Grandma looked at the wound and frowned. "It seems to be even redder and more swollen?"

Gu Qingming frowned when she saw this. That was indeed the case.

She communicated with the fairy again and asked curiously, "Little Kong, didn't you say that my current physique is immune to all poisons and diseases? What's going on now? Just one bite and my entire instep has turned red and swollen?"

Xiao Kong smiled and said, "Master, actually, this should be psychological."

"Psychological?" Gu Qingming frowned again, a little puzzled.

"Sigh." Little Kong sighed softly and said with a smile, "Little Master, you've never been to the fields and haven't been bitten by insects or ants. Moreover, you like to be clean. The first time you were bitten, you felt a little uncomfortable. This discomfort was transmitted to your brain and driven by the nerves in your brain. Naturally, you feel like you've been bitten by ants."

Gu Qingming was speechless.

As an educated person in the 21st century, she actually needed an alien creature to explain this knowledge to her.

Gu Qingming immediately felt that she had made a mountain out of a molehill.

Seeing her grandmother's heartache, Gu Qingming smiled and comforted her. "Grandma, I'm fine. Now that the medication has been applied, these swelling might subside in a while."

Since she had found the crux of the problem, it was much easier.

Too many unbelievable things had happened. Sometimes, she felt like she had become a god. However, the reality was that she was still an ordinary person. She just had a little more ability than ordinary people.

Grandma nodded and said, "Yes, we'll see."

At this moment, Third Sister-in-law Lin Qiulan walked in from outside. When she saw Gu Qingming's swollen instep, she asked, "Grandma, what's wrong with Sister?"

"Bitten by ants!" said Granny.

"Why is it so swollen after being bitten by ants? Were they poisonous ants?" Lin Qiulan asked.

Grandma said, "I took a look. Those were non-poisonous ants. I reckon that Ming'er's skin is more tender. If she takes a bite, it will swell even more! Now that the ointment has been applied l, let's see if it will disappear later. If it's still so swollen, we might have to get a doctor to take a look."

Although the ants were not poisonous, she might still suffer from an infection.

Lin Qiulan looked at the chives in the basket and asked, "Grandma, why did you cut so many chives? Are you making dumplings to eat?"

"Yes. Ming'er's grandparents like to eat chive dumplings. I went to cut some chives to make dumplings for lunch," Grandma said.

Lin Qiulan took out the chives from the basket. They were still muddy and she knew that they had not been washed. She brought them to the pool in the courtyard to wash them before placing them in a basin.

She placed the basin of chives by the door and picked them up with a low stool.

Then, she tore off the yellow leaves and rotten leaves.

Seeing this, Gu Qingming also sat down on a small stool. She copied Third Sister-in-law's movements and grabbed a handful of chives from the washbasin before picking them up one by one.
