As expected, the snow leopard showed no intention of attacking them. It merely turned its head to look at them before leaping away into the distance.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the snow leopard leave.
Wow, that snow leopard is huge!
Ono had been holding back his anger, and now he finally let it out.
Even Yingzi clenched her fists nervously.
At this moment, Dr. Su was very reliable, standing beside her the whole time, tightly gripping the small hoe in his hand.
They breathed a sigh of relief at that moment as well.
"Looks like I can't come alone to dig for caterpillar fungus anymore; I'll have to carry a gun with me!"
Jiang Wenwan agreed with him.
"Yingzi, if you ever want to come here to dig for caterpillar fungus, you must find someone to accompany you. Don't just ride your horse here by yourself."
Yingzi had originally planned to come and dig for cordyceps more often in the future.
She was terrified when she saw the big snow leopard, and when she heard Jiang Wenwan say that, she quickly nodded.
She has to go to school this year no matter what. If she can't earn enough money for school, she'll have to borrow from her brother and sister-in-law.
My older brother is always training and not at home. When I mentioned going to school, he just passed the buck to my sister-in-law.
Just like Sister Jiang said, now that Sister-in-law has joined the Women's Federation, it's time for her to cherish her reputation.
Having no other choice, she had to use this as a threat.
"Sister-in-law, can I catch a snow leopard and raise it?"
I think that would be so cool!
Jiang Wenwan scoffed:
"You want to raise it?"
"Don't you even look at your tiny body? It's not even big enough to fill its teeth."
Zhou Ye tilted his head to look at her.
"My brother just said that snow leopards don't eat people."
"Okay, then you can raise it!"
The little guy's eyes lit up when he heard Jiang Wenwan agree.
"real?!"
Jiang Wenwan smiled kindly.
Seriously, just do what you want to do. (You might regret it later.)
But you have to catch one yourself; your brother and I won't help you catch one.
In the future, snow leopards will become a Class I protected animal in China, something you can't afford to keep as a pet.
So you should start early. Your brother and I are cheering you on!
Zhou Ye: "...Catch one yourself?"
The little guy, whose eyes were just sparkling, is now listless.
"When can I catch one myself?"
Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting exchanged a glance, then chuckled and tapped the little guy on the head.
"Take care of those two geese of yours first before we talk about anything else."
Snow leopards eat geese. What will you do if it eats both of your geese?
The little guy immediately wavered when his geese were mentioned.
"No, my two great generals can't be eaten. I'd better not raise them."
Seeing how quickly he compromised, Jiang Wenwan was delighted.
"Hurry up and dig up your cordyceps, 4 yuan is just around the corner."
Upon hearing that it was four yuan, Xiao Zhouye immediately became energized and motivated again.
They dug until it got dark before heading back.
The next day, when Zhou Yunting went out, he took Zhou Ye with him.
They said they'd stay for one day, and they stayed for one day; they wouldn't stay even half a day longer.
Zhou Ye was still half asleep when he woke up, but he didn't forget about his 4 yuan cordyceps.
Jiang Wenwan asked Zhou Yunting to take his cordyceps with him, as if it were part of his work-study program.
Back when she was a child, she worked part-time while studying, searching for scrap metal everywhere.
They even looked for pork bones.
Jiang Wenwan was at home cleaning the caterpillar fungus, intending to clean off all the mud on it.
Then I'll go to the pharmaceutical factory tomorrow morning and sell it in the afternoon.
"Sister-in-law, if I bring the cordyceps to your house, can I store them there?"
Jiang Wenwan looked at Yingzi, who was standing at the door with red eyes.
"Yes, come in quickly, what happened?"
"My sister-in-law stewed 10 cordyceps that I dug up this morning."
Jiang Wenwan was speechless. Eating ten cordyceps first thing in the morning?
Aunt Jiang is quite a character; she's not afraid of her blood pressure spikes.
"Come here."
Let's clean these caterpillar fungus together. I'm going to the county today, so I'll take you with me. We'll exchange them for money, then your sister-in-law won't have to worry about eating them."
Hearing this, Yingzi smiled, her tearful face breaking into a smile, and nodded.
Jiang Wenwan specially tuned the radio, and the two of them listened to the radio while tidying up the cordyceps.
At the hospital entrance, Dr. Su peeked in.
"Hey, I knew it! Why didn't Xiaoyingzi go to the clinic today?"
Sure enough, it was at Sister Jiang's house.
Jiang Wenwan had a pretty good impression of him.
"Isn't the clinic busy right now?"
"Yes, there aren't many people today."
Normally, it's just that the soldiers get minor headaches or fevers, or strains or falls during training.
It's usually quite leisurely.
Jiang Wenwan held the cordyceps in her hand as she walked along the muddy path:
Are you the only one in the clinic today?
"Yes!
I just came to take a look because Yingzi wasn't here today.
"Then you really need to go back. Someone should be looking for you in a little while."
The military doctor looked surprised.
"Looking for me? Who is it?"
Jiang Wenwan kept everyone in suspense.
You'll find out when you get back!
However, you'll have to charge her an extra 50 cents for the consultation fee.
The Soviet military doctor was skeptical.
"Then I'll go back and take a look!"
Not long after, Dr. Su came running back.
"Hey, Sister-in-law Jiang, you're amazing! I just got back and Aunt Jiang is already gone."
She told me she had a headache and felt dizzy, so I took her blood pressure.
Goodness, my blood pressure skyrocketed. How could I not have a headache and feel dizzy?
Hehe, I remember what you said, you charged him 50 cents more for the medicine.
