Chapter 197 News about Him
A few military wives who were waiting for the bus not far away saw this scene, curled their lips, and their eyes were full of envy and jealousy. They were all military wives, so why was there such a big difference?
When she arrived at the Lu family, Ling Yao politely greeted the Lu family one by one.
Then, she took out the gifts she had carefully prepared for everyone from her bag, "Grandpa! This is the ginseng I specially selected for you. You can cut a piece every day to make tea, which is good for your body."
She originally wanted to refine some pills for Grandpa Lu as his daily conditioning, but after seeing the ginseng in the medicine field, she changed her mind. When her father ate the ginseng in the space, his body healed and he could stand up, which shows the efficacy of this ginseng.
Now the space has changed. All the herbs in the medicine field have been nourished by the spiritual energy, and their efficacy has become stronger. Even the quality of the pills she refined has increased sharply.
Of course, there is another point. Old people don’t like to take medicine, so she decided to give ginseng directly to Mr. Lu and let him make tea.
Mr. Lu was smiling, so happy that his eyes narrowed into a slit. He reached out to take the box handed over by Ling Yao and opened it.
In an instant, a rich and mellow, refreshing ginseng fragrance rushed into the nose like a clear spring, making people feel refreshed.
This fragrance seemed to have magic, and quickly spread to the entire living room, and every corner was filled with its alluring breath. Just smelling the fragrance of ginseng can make people feel refreshed, as if all the fatigue and stress in the body are instantly dissipated.
"This is... a hundred-year-old ginseng?!" Old Master Lu widened his eyes and stared at the ginseng in the box in disbelief. This ginseng is as white as jade and looks like a baby. The roots are complete and slender, and the skin is smooth and delicate, just like a fine work of art. Such top-grade ginseng may be difficult to find even in the medicine warehouse in the national treasury.
"I dug this by chance in the mountains when I was in Yuncheng before. I hope you will like it, Grandpa." Ling Yao said with a smile.
"I like it, of course I like it! Yaoyao, you are so thoughtful." Mr. Lu was so excited that his voice trembled. He carefully closed the box and held it in his hands like a treasure.
Ling Yao took out two bottles of spirit wine she brewed and handed them to Father Lu, "Dad! This wine is brewed by me. Try it. If you like it, I will brew it for you next time." This wine is brewed by her with the spirit fruits and spirit herbs in the space, which has the effect of prolonging life.
"Okay, I won't be polite. I will try it later." Father Lu happily took the wine. He doesn't have any special hobbies, but he likes to drink tea and wine. Every night he will pour a small glass of wine for a drink.
"Mom! This is the mask and cream I made for you. It can moisturize your skin and delay aging. I hope you like it!" Ling Yao handed the mask and cream to Lu's mother.
Lu's mother accepted the gift with great joy, "Our Yaoyao is so thoughtful. Mom likes this gift very much."
Since she took the pills Yaoyao gave her, she obviously felt that her mental state has improved, and she seemed to be several years younger. The ladies in her circle always curiously asked her what skin care products she used.
Mother Lu gently lifted the mask cover, took a closer look, and a light and fresh fragrance filled her nose, "Yaoyao, how do you use this mask?"
"Just apply it on your face and wash it off after a quarter of an hour." She was using a smear-type mask.
"Got it, I'll try it now." Mother Lu couldn't wait.
Ling Yao smiled, retracted her gaze, and distributed the remaining gifts to others.
"Yaoyao, go to the study with Grandpa, Grandpa has something to tell you." Grandpa Lu suddenly spoke, his expression a little solemn.
"Okay." Ling Yao nodded, stood up, and followed Grandpa Lu to the study. After
closing the door, Grandpa Lu pointed to a chair and said, "Yaoyao, sit down first."
"Yes." Ling Yao waited for Grandpa Lu to sit down, then sat down opposite him.
Grandpa Lu considered his words and spoke slowly, "Yaoyao, Qingyun disappeared while on a mission." When he got the news, he almost fainted, Qingyun was his most valued grandson.
Ling Yao's face changed, and her voice was filled with anxiety, "Where has he been missing for how many days?"
Old Master Lu sighed, "Originally this matter is confidential, I can't tell you, but I know you care about Qingyun."
His voice was choked with sobs, and he paused slightly, "This time Qingyun is assisting the border police to crack a drug trafficking case. The border is very chaotic now, and drug dealers secretly transport drugs into the country every day. This time, the higher-ups got news that someone would transport ten kilograms of drugs into the country, and the other party was carrying heavy weapons. So the higher-ups sent Qingyun and others to help."
"Five days ago, Qingyun and his team met with those drug dealers. A conflict immediately broke out between the two sides. The drug dealers were defeated and hid in the rainforest. Qingyun led his men to chase them, and there has been no news of him since." Grandpa Lu now only hopes that his grandson can return safely.
Ling Yao gritted her teeth, her eyes revealed a hint of determination, "Grandpa! I want to find Qingyun."
Old Master Lu frowned slightly, "Yaoyao, I told you this to prepare you mentally, not to make you impulsive. That's the border, a girl like you will die if you go there."
"Grandpa! I must go, I have a way to find Qingyun, please believe me and give me a chance." Ling Yao met Old Master Lu's eyes with determination.
Old Master Lu shook his head, "No!" He would never allow Ling Yao to go to the border. If something happened to her, Qingyun would blame him when she came back. If he had known this, he would not have told her about it.
I thought she was a calm child, but I didn't expect her to be so impulsive.
Ling Yao didn't say anything else. She had already made up her mind. She had to go.
After returning to the family compound, Ling Yao called Zhao Kun and asked him to help her arrange the trip to the border.
"Boss! The border is very dangerous. You can't go there alone. You should think about it carefully." Zhao Kun persuaded Ling Yao when he knew she was going to the border.
"I know what I'm doing. Just help me arrange it."
In the end, Zhao Kun couldn't persuade Ling Yao and could only help her arrange it.
The next morning, Ling Yao set off for the border.
At this time in the tropical rainforest, Lu Qingyun and his group were chasing drug dealers into the depths of the rainforest. The weather in the rainforest was hot, and there were snakes, insects, rats and ants everywhere, many of which were highly venomous. Several warriors were bitten by snakes and insects.
Seeing that another warrior was bitten by a snake or insect, Lu Qingyun ordered everyone to rest on the spot. He took out the medicine Ling Yao gave him, opened the bottle cap, and handed a pill to the bitten warrior. Now the medicine Yao Yao prepared for him was running low, and he didn't know how long these medicines could last.
