"roar!"

Weiwu suddenly burst out of some bushes, ran up to Su Yan, braked abruptly, and approached her with a bunch of mushroom-shaped things hanging from his mouth.

"Oh my god!"

Su Yan immediately stopped what she was doing and picked up what it was holding in its mouth to examine it closely.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Jingxing rushed over, his eyes full of worry.

Su Yan exclaimed excitedly, "This is a wild giant white ground mushroom! You're amazing, Wei Wu!"

The tiger proudly shook its head, spat out the giant white mushroom from its mouth onto the ground, and finally fell a ginseng root as thick as an adult's arm, completely intact!

Su Yan!!!

Jiang Jingxing: ?

After a long while, Su Yan finally found her voice and exclaimed in shock, "No, how did you dig this ginseng out of the ground?"

This ginseng, as thick as an arm, radiates a golden glow upon closer inspection, and its appearance is almost identical to that of a human.

It was obvious without even guessing that this ginseng was older than the thousand-year-old ginseng she sold to Tang Li; she couldn't even estimate its age.

Seeing Su Yan's expression, Wei Wu excitedly spun around, "Roar!" It was this stupid ginseng that provoked the tiger and ended up getting caught! Be careful, it might run away! Look at you, you two-legged beast, you're a good-for-nothing. Here, take this one. Remember to bring back lots of good food for the tiger.

Su Yan stepped forward, hugged its tiger head, and gave it a big kiss. "Great Grandpa, from now on you are my living father. I will treat you like a Bodhisattva!"

Jiang Jingxing: "..."

However, judging from the ginseng's appearance, he could tell that it was older than a thousand-year-old ginseng, which explained why she was so excited.

To prevent the ginseng from escaping, Su Yan first had Wei Wu hold it in his mouth.

She sped up her search for medicinal herbs, and within an hour she had found all the herbs she needed. In order to ensure the herbs could be planted, she even shoveled ten pounds of soil down the mountain.

Back in the cave, Su Yan found a rope and tied the ginseng to the back of the basket, then covered it with herbs.

After packing her things, she said to Weiwu, "Weiwu, I probably won't have much time to come see you later, but I will definitely bring you a good meal before I go to school. After that, it may be during my winter vacation, which is in winter. You have to take good care of yourself, okay? Don't go to dangerous places, and don't fight with other animals and get hurt."

"Roar!" I know, why have you become so long-winded, you two-legged creature? It's not like you can't live without a tiger, but if you dare forget about a tiger, it won't let you off the hook!

Weiwu shook his tiger head impatiently.

Having met him so many times, Su Yan had long since figured out Wei Wu's personality and knew that he was just a stubborn, stinky tiger.

She didn't say anything more, patted its head, and then went down the mountain with Jiang Jingxing.

Watching their departing figures, Weiwu finally lowered its stubborn head, scratching the soil with its paws in frustration, its big tiger eyes filled with reluctance.

Tiger was really worried because he finally met an interesting two-legged creature, but now she can't come often anymore.

Weiwu was reluctant to part with it, and Su Yan was also quite reluctant to part with it.

"I wonder if it will still be here when I come back from winter break," she said, feeling frustrated.

Her main concern was that Wei Wu might get injured or in danger.

Jiang Jingxing saw through her thoughts at a glance and said, "Weiwu has a strong attack power. It is currently in a period of high energy and will be fine."

"I hope so."

Today, Grandma Li and Grandpa Li were also coming back to the village to help with building their house, so after they came down the mountain, they went straight to the village head's house.

The brigade had just finished preparing lunch, and Grandpa and Grandma Li happened to be there.

The captain chuckled when he saw her and teased, "You haven't come back since you arrived in town. Do you look down on our rural life?"

"You're wronging me. How could I possibly complain?" Su Yan replied, "I came to find you as soon as I came down from the mountain. I even brought you mooncakes, which I made myself."

As she spoke, she took out a mooncake wrapped in oil paper from the basket.

"You're so thoughtful, girl." The captain didn't try to refuse and accepted it readily.

He shifted his gaze to Jiang Jingxing and asked in confusion, "Why does this guy look so familiar?"

Su Yan explained, "He is Commander Jiang, who rushed in to save me the day my house burned down. He asked me to help him find medicinal herbs, and that's why I went into the mountains with him today."

Upon hearing this, the battalion commander became a little reserved and cautiously greeted him, "So it's Regiment Commander Jiang. Please have a seat, don't stand."

Jiang Jingxing frowned. "Captain, just treat me like an ordinary junior. Besides, I'm on leave right now. I'm not some regimental commander, just an ordinary person."

"Captain, just listen to Xiao Jiang. He and Brother Su Yan are comrades-in-arms. He has helped my family a lot. He's a good kid. Don't feel uncomfortable just because he's a regimental commander," said Grandma Li as she came out of the kitchen carrying dishes.

Upon hearing this, the brigade leader relaxed and laughed, "There's nothing I can do. The highest official I've ever seen in my life is the town mayor. I'm truly ashamed. Xiao Jiang has become a regimental commander at such a young age. He's young and promising, and his future is limitless."

Before the accident, Su Yu was already a battalion commander. If he were still alive, and with a girl like Su Yan who knew how to make money, the Su family would be incredibly wealthy. Unfortunately, the Su family is full of blind fools.

While Jiang Jingxing was chatting with the captain, Su Yan went to the kitchen to help serve the food.

Lin Xiuli's eyes lit up the moment she saw her, and she praised, "Life is better now, Ayan's face is rounder and fairer, she really is a beauty in the making."

She remembered that when Su Yan first arrived in Lijiapin, she was so thin that she barely had any flesh on her bones, and her skin was dark. Compared to now, it was like heaven and earth. How long has it been?

The villagers say that Li Juan's family has made a fortune; they bought a house in town, and their braised food business is booming. It seems to be true.

Lin Xiuli knew it was all because of Su Yan; the girl seemed to have suddenly become enlightened after leaving the Su family.

However, seeing their family getting better and better made her genuinely happy.

Su Yan blinked: "Really? Aunt Lin, don't try to fool me, I'll take it as the truth."

"Why would I lie to you? You're a good girl, just don't forget about Aunt Lin." Lin Xiuli said jokingly.

"How could I dare!" Su Yan shouted, "If I dared to be ungrateful, my grandma would be the first to break my legs!"

Grandma Li heard this as she stepped into the kitchen and replied, "Good to know, go out and eat."

Lin Xiuli and Grandma Li cooked four dishes and a soup together.

Although there were two more people, it was enough to eat, since the quantity was large.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite good, mainly with Jiang Jingxing and the brigade leader chatting.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Captain, when will the problem with the dry mountain be resolved? Our families are so poor we can't even afford to eat!"
