Chapter 124 Didn’t you say you would give it to me to eat?
"Um!"
Wen Tang picked up the shovel and started digging.
Although they dug it with a shovel, they did it very carefully for fear of damaging the Polygonum multiflorum, which would make it worthless.
Before Zhong Meixian came close, Chi Yue whispered, "Didn't you say you would give it to me to eat?"
"Yes!" Wen Tang nodded.
"So you mean getting rich?"
"Half... I'll give it to you to eat, and half I'll sell. I tell you, if it's a hundred years old, it'll be very valuable!"
"Look at this stem. Trust me, it's right."
Zhong Meixian approached and saw Wen Tang digging with one hand and carefully shoveling the soil with the other. She couldn't help but wonder, "What did you dig up?"
“He Shou Wu.”
"He Shou Wu? It's the little ginseng."
"Yes, that's it."
"Oh, isn't that valuable?"
"I don't know if it's old yet, I have to dig it out slowly."
"But, Mom, don't shout, or someone might hear you and come and snatch it away."
Wen Tang's words made the old lady pinch her mouth.
Wen Tang knelt there and dug it out carefully. It took him more than an hour to dig it out completely.
When the upper half appeared, it was proved that Wen Tang was right, it was indeed Polygonum multiflorum.
Then Wen Tang started digging while Zhong Meixian moved the soil to the side.
Finally it was dug out, Wen Tang jumped up happily, "Haha, it really is more than a hundred years old, haha, I am also a person with the halo of the heroine."
Chi Yue subconsciously looked at Zhong Meixian, afraid that she would ask what the heroine's halo was.
But the old lady was so focused on the Polygonum multiflorum that she didn't even listen to what Wen Tang said. Instead, she knelt down and dug while saying, "There are a few small ones next to it. Let me dig them. Let me dig them."
By the time they had dug up all the Polygonum multiflorum and put it in a basket and covered it, it was already dark when they returned home and Gu Jinfeng and the others had returned from the fields.
It’s just the beginning of spring and there’s not that much work, so we get off work early.
But even if it was early, Wen Tang and the others should have returned long ago from digging shepherd's purse.
Seeing that they had returned together, Gu Jinfeng asked, "Mom, sister-in-law, where did you go today?"
Zhong Meixian said nothing, and Wen Tang said nothing.
Gu Jinfeng thought that she had offended the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law again without knowing when.
After thinking about it, he looked at his daughter-in-law.
In the end, his daughter-in-law didn't say anything, and the three of them just quickly went to close the gate.
Gu Jinfeng moved closer to Chi Yue and asked, "Xiao Yue, are you angry with your grandma and your aunt?"
"Pa!" Zhong Meixian raised her hand and slapped her.
Gu Jinfeng: It seems that this contradiction is quite deep!
Gu Jinfeng rubbed her arm, not understanding why the three of them had such a conflict.
Fortunately, Zhong Meixian didn't let Gu Jinfeng wonder for long. She motioned Gu Jinfeng to follow her to the main room.
Then he signaled Gu Juyuan and Lin Liansheng in the yard to come into the house.
After entering the house, Zhong Meixian, who was usually very stingy, took the initiative to light the kerosene lamp, and then said to Wen Tang, "Tang, close the door."
Gu Jinfeng: "..."
The door was closed, and only her family was in the room. Zhong Meixian let out a long sigh of relief, then put the basket that Wen Tang brought back on the table, "Come and see what good stuff Xiaotang has dug up."
The shepherd's purse covering the top was removed, revealing the fully formed Polygonum multiflorum underneath. Gu Juyuan was the first to reach out his hand, "This... Polygonum multiflorum?"
"Dad, you know him too?"
Gu Juyuan nodded and said, "I have seen it before, but it has rarely been seen in recent years."
"Where did you dig this?"
"It's in the woods over there. Xiaotang dug it."
Zhong Meixian opened another basket and said, "There are also these small ones."
Zhong Meixian lowered her voice and asked, "Can this be sold?"
Gu Juyuan nodded, "Just be careful."
"We still have to... we still have to find the right person."
Wen Tang said, "Don't worry, we will keep them for now and sell them when the right opportunity arises."
Wen Tang has already decided when to sell this thing.
It is over a hundred years old and wild Polygonum multiflorum. It is impossible to find a suitable buyer in this small place. If you are not careful, you may get yourself into trouble.
But if you go to Haishi, it will probably be easy to find buyers.
It was a hot day and she was going to visit Gu Yanli, so she would take this with her.
Zhong Meixian and Gu Juyuan both nodded, and asked Wen Tang to put it away.
As for the little ones, Wen Tang quickly said, "Save them for soup later. It will be just right for Yueyue's body."
"Otherwise, slicing it and brewing it into tea is also good."
Before Chi Yue did anything, Gu Jinfeng was already moved, "Sister-in-law, you treat... you treat Xiaoyue, your nephew's wife, really, really well."
Wen Tang: Of course. She’s my best friend, how can there be any lies?
But what he said was, “Well, the small ones are not worth much anyway, just give them to Yueyue.”
After saying this, Chi Yue gave him a sad look.
Wen Tang laughed twice and touched his nose to hide his guilty conscience.
When no one was paying attention, Wen Tang quietly leaned close to Chi Yue's ear and said, "Hehe," with a smile, "Well... aren't we short of money now?"
"When I have money, I will get you thousand-year-old ginseng and ten-thousand-year-old turtle. You can eat whatever you want and drink whatever you want. I will definitely keep you fair and tender."
“Go away!!!” Chi Yue pushed her.
Wen Tang held the person tightly and refused to let go.
"Okay, stop pretending. I'm not that greedy. Besides, even if I am greedy, am I greedy for the medicinal herbs?"
Wen Tang immediately hugged the person and said “bobobo!”
Lin Jingshen had just parked his bicycle and this was the scene he saw when he approached the main room.
He felt that he had high blood pressure at a young age.
But because he is young, he also has low blood pressure, because his blood pressure comes and goes quickly.
That's his aunt, and like his wife, she's a lesbian. What can he say?
"Xiaoyue," Lin Jingshen could only call out foolishly.
Hearing Lin Jingshen's voice, Chi Yue felt a little guilty for some reason. She reached out and pushed Wen Tang, "My man is back, you go away!"
Wen Tang reluctantly let go of his hand. "Humph, next time you want to eat my Polygonum multiflorum, you can't."
Chi Yue ignored her sister Lin and was directly attracted by her brother Lin Jingshen.
"Are you back?" Chi Yue was gentle and caring towards Lin Jingshen.
Soon the first month of the year was over and the weather became warmer.
The work in the fields also became busy.
Luo Qiao wanted to ask for leave just like before, but Xu Zhongguo didn't allow it. "You haven't earned five work points since you came back, and you still want to ask for leave?"
"I'm telling you, Luo Qiao, if you continue to be passive and lazy like this, I'm going to report it to my superiors and criticize you severely."
Xu Zhongguo spoke harshly to Luo Qiao, but he also told Luo Tian earnestly, "Little educated youth Luo, persuade your sister. Now that she has come here, she should take root among the people and stop thinking about useless things all day long."
Luo Tian could only nod, "Okay, I understand. I will definitely persuade her."
Luo Tian advised Luo Qiao, "Don't think about the black market all day long. It's not like the things our parents brought us are not enough."
"You sold the supplies that your parents had taken great pains to buy, and used the money to buy meat and grain to make food for everyone. This is of course a good thing, but you can't make this the centerpiece!"
