Chapter 56 An unexpected surprise



Chapter 56 An unexpected surprise

Both Mr. and Mrs. Xia raised their little daughter to be the rich lady they envisioned.

Fortunately, Rongrong's temper is strictly controlled by Xia Yutong, otherwise she would definitely be a spoiled young lady.

The box was opened, and Xia Yutong's eyes widened at the sight of the things inside.

"Dad, how did you get this thing?" Xia Yutong stood up from her chair in shock.

It's impossible not to be shocked, but this thing is really too precious, it's not something that money can buy.

Father Xia knew that his daughter would like it, so he began to tell her about this incident as if he was presenting a treasure.

It turned out that after Xia's father left the southern province, something happened while he was traveling by water.

They were tied up by a group of bandits, but these bandits also had consciences.

They only seek food and money and do not want to harm anyone's life.

The people that Father Xia took out were all his servants. They were very loyal and all learned Xia family martial arts.

It is normal for one person to be worth ten, but not two.

Maybe because they were both born into peasant families, Xia's father gave up resistance the first time.

Of course, there were so many people around, so he had to give up. It would be bad if there were casualties.

After arriving at the bandits' lair, Xia's father discovered that it was actually a valley where many old, weak, women and scholars lived.

They were all so hungry that they looked pale and thin.

Father Xia felt very compassionate and immediately asked Lai Sheng to take out the instant noodles he brought from home for everyone to eat.

Fortunately, we brought a lot of food this time. I can't say they can have a full meal, but at least the children and the elderly here can have a mouthful of hot soup.

Perhaps it was because of what Xia's father did that he gained the favor of many people.

The leaders just wanted their families to have a little more food, so they did such a thing.

Of course, it is also related to the local county officials, and they cannot rebel against the court.

They stayed here for more than half a month, and finally they could not bear the condemnation of their conscience and let Xia's father and others go.

As soon as Father Xia left, he bought a large amount of coarse grains and secretly transported them to the valley where they were.

Make them feel better too.

After spending almost all the money he had, Father Xia, after inspecting the local area, found that the county magistrate here was not a good person, so he immediately withdrew and brought a letter asking if anyone would follow him to the Southern Province.

Some people were indeed tempted to go along.

Some people are worried about their families and cannot leave.

Once they leave, their families are afraid...

There is no escape from death.

Father Xia wanted to help, but his ability was limited and he couldn't help much even if he wanted to.

All we can do is buy them more coarse grains.

But it was not a long-term solution. Fortunately, those who left with him were of good character. They said that they would send money back every month so that they could go to other counties to buy food.

There were about forty or fifty people following him out. It was too many people, and Father Xia had just left the countryside, so he knew the seriousness of the matter.

He asked Lai Sheng to take half of his people and stay outside for a few days, and then come into the city after he bought a farm in the southern part of the city.

The Xia family's current farm belongs to their daughter. She has done a lot of things there and it is not suitable for outsiders to see it.

These people can help with farming at home and relieve some of the burden on my daughter.

Father Xia had a good idea, but he didn't want to make decisions for his daughter, so he came back to talk to her about this matter. Unexpectedly, when he got home, he learned that his daughter had opened a shop.

This made him very excited.

After talking for a long time, Father Xia still didn't say where the thing came from.

Xia Yutong's eyes were dazed, "Dad, what do you want to say?" This thing is valuable, but with so many refugees, it is beyond the ability of their small Xia family to take care of them.

Besides, with so many people coming into a village at once, do they really think the county magistrate is just a decoration?

The city lord is blind?

It is better to leave this kind of thing to those who are striving to get ahead.

Father Xia was stunned. He had never been involved in politics, so he really didn't understand these things very well.

Now after hearing his daughter say this, he was terrified.

"Xiaotong, what do you say we should do?" Now that he has promised others, if he regrets it...

"It's okay, leave it to me, Dad. You should talk about this thing." If there were a lot of these things, she wouldn't mind helping them deal with the county magistrate.

"This thing was given to me by an old man there. He said it was a token of his gratitude for my food. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it and accepted it hastily. When I came back, I took a look at it and realized that it was the herb you had been looking for. I didn't expect that I would come across it."

There was pride in Xia's father's words.

Xia Yutong's mouth twitched. Her father was still her father.

After closing the box, Xia Yutong looked at her father with a smile on her face, "Dad, do you think that old man still has this kind of grass?"

If there is more, can she perform marrow cleansing on the whole family?

That’s right, this herb is exactly the marrow-cleansing grass mentioned in medical classics.

Once you have undergone marrow cleansing, you will truly live a long life.

If you practice martial arts, you will reach a higher level.

It just so happens that Xiaoxuan loves martial arts, so I will give him the first one to use it.

Xia Yutong began to plan in her mind.

It's just that these herbs have been processed, otherwise it would be better for her to plant them in the air.

"I don't know about this, but I will ask if I have the chance." Father Xia could see that learning to grow herbs was very valuable.

"Well, Dad, take me to see that old man next time." Judging from his technique, this doctor's skills must be extraordinary.

"I'm afraid that's not possible. Dad doesn't want you to go." How could his precious daughter go to such a place?

Xia Yutong's mouth twitched, and she was speechless.

"Dad." Xia Yutong said coquettishly.

"No means no. Well, since you have accepted the gift, those people I brought back will be handed over to you." After saying that, Father Xia walked towards the backyard with his hands behind his back.

Xia Yutong was helpless.

It seems I have to go find Wen Li tomorrow. Only he can do this kind of thing.

Xia Yutong spent this night in the space, and she made the marrow-cleansing grass into medicinal powder.

This box is almost enough for two people. If she wants more, she will have to ask the old woman if there are any living marrow-cleansing grasses so that she can grow better quality ones.

Since there is no one alive now, we can only make do with it for now.

Xia Yutong took out a few plants first, and put the rest into the spiritual spring to soak for later use.

It is not difficult to make the medicinal powder, and it will take no time to master it.

At this moment, a miracle happened.

The herbs she had soaked in the spiritual spring water actually sprouted, what a surprise.

Xia Yutong didn't care about anything else and immediately moved it to the medicine field. The ginseng in the medicine field had already become spirits, each one bigger than the other.

After clearing out some medicinal fields, Xia Yutong planted the tender shoots in the fields.

Before reaching the medicinal field, Xia Yutong felt as if the young buds were stretching and relaxing.

Looks like he's taller.

However, no matter how miraculous the things in the space were, they had happened before, so she was not surprised.

Since the tender sprout has settled down, there is no need to look for the old man. She will have better quality marrow cleansing grass in the future.

So…
