Chapter 157
“Mrs. Burton, what’s wrong with you?” As soon as Jennifer saw Rachel’s pained appearance, she hurriedly went forward.
Rachel felt as if something was about to burst out of her brain as she frantically gripped her forehead, but she failed to suppress the pain. As she let out a cry of pain, she fell to the floor.

“Do you like collecting herbs?”
“Yes.”

“Poria seeds, peony flowers, forsythia, dahurica, mixed with red sand…”
Rachel’s lips vibrated. Despite the inability to make a sound, the memory of those children’s songs suddenly became incomparably clear to her with the name of each herb echoing in her ears.
“Mom, are we not going to pick herbs today?”
