Chapter: 823
But Fritz did not listen to Astelle and stared intently at Gretel’s drawings.
“Brother? What’s wrong?”
“Is this a detoxifying herb?”
“Oh, yes, yes. It looks like this.”
Fritz looked at the two of them.
“I’ve seen it before.”
There was a moment of silence in the room at Fritz’s confession.
“Have you ever seen this herb?”
Not only Astelle but also Gretel looked at Fritz with a surprised look.
Fritz looked carefully at the herbs drawn on the paper.
“I saw something like this when I went to the west estate. It was a flower brought from the south, and a lord gave it to me as a gift.”
“Gift?”
“Flower?”
Astelle and Gretel asked almost simultaneously.
Fritz looked at the two of them and replied, “Yeah, obviously…… they called it a flower.”
Fritz explained to the two about the flowers he had seen in the west estate.
When he went down west as a manor manager, he received gifts from here and there. Although he did not receive valuable jewelry or accessories, he considered small gifts such as elaborate food and flowers difficult to refuse and accepted them as a favor.
Some of them were local specialties and some unusual plants that were said to have been brought from distant places.
“Obviously there were flowers that looked like this.”
Astelle looked again at Gretel’s drawing.
The blue flowers drawn on the paper are small but beautiful. On the flower stalk, abundant blue petals are in full bloom. At first glance, it looks like a small peony.
“Gretel, is this flower known as an antidote?”
“Not really. I also found out for the first time when I went to the South……”
If you are not familiar with medicinal herbs, you may have thought that they are just beautiful flowers grown in the garden.
The country lords did not leave far from their region and were also ignorant of the cultures of other regions. They must have given it as a gift because it was interesting that it came from another region.
