Chapter 11 The tone took eighteen turns



"mother!"

Lin Chaonan saw two blurry figures standing at the village entrance and ran forward quickly. When he got closer, he realized that the shorter figure was actually his mother. He was so excited that he ran over to hug her.

As it turned out, his mother actually dodged it?

"Mother~"

Lin Chaonan cried out in grievance, his tone taking eighteen turns.

"Alright, alright, now that you're back, hurry home."

Yue Jiuyue couldn't stand being so clingy with her son who was so big. She didn't have a loving mother's heart; if she did, it was just an act to maintain her public image.

"Third Brother, why are you only getting back now? What did the doctor say? Are those weeds really medicinal herbs? Will their clinic accept them?"

Lin Chaobei didn't care at all about his brother's disregard for him. What he cared about most now was whether his afternoon's efforts could be exchanged for copper coins.

"Yes, Dr. Li from the Li Family Clinic in town told me personally that all the herbs my mother asked us to dig up were medicinal herbs. However, Dr. Li said that many herbs are not lacking in their clinic, so they don't accept them. They only accept a few kinds, such as Yuanzhi and Banxia. I've forgotten their names. I'll take them out and show them to you when we get back."

Lin Chaonan was a true farmer's son, having dealt with soil and clods of earth since childhood. He was very familiar with all the weeds in and around the fields, and there were even many he didn't recognize. If his mother hadn't remembered to sell medicinal herbs this time, he wouldn't have noticed this at all.

"Really?! Are all those herbs that Mother told us to dig really medicinal herbs? Can they be sold for money?"

Lin Chaobei was incredibly excited. If it were true, then his afternoon's work wouldn't have been in vain!

At this moment, he even felt a little regretful because he had a sense of resistance and hadn't worked hard in the afternoon. Otherwise, he could have dug up more medicinal herbs and earned more copper coins.

Would I lie to you?

Lin Chaonan proudly raised his chin.

"Then, how much can those medicinal herbs sell for?"

Lin Chaonan was stumped by Lin Chaobei's question.

Believe it or not, he had actually forgotten to ask that question.

"Oh, I forgot to ask. I was just too happy at the time, hehe."

"Huh? I didn't ask..."

Lin Chaobei was a little disappointed. He had planned to specifically target the high-priced medicinal herbs after finding out their prices.

"Tomorrow, Doctor Li said he wants me to bring some medicinal herbs to his clinic so he can teach his apprentices how to process them. He also said I should learn along with him. Don't worry, Fourth Brother, I'll definitely remember to ask tomorrow."

Lin Chaonan patted his chest and assured him.

As they continued asking and answering questions, the mother and her two children quickly returned to their home in the middle of the village, near the South River. However, by this time, the riverbed of the South River had long since dried up and cracked.

"Mother! You're back! Chaonan, how are you? What did the doctor say?"

Hearing the commotion, Lin Chaodong quickly came out, opened the door, and welcomed the three people inside. After closing the courtyard gate, he immediately approached Lin Chaonan and asked him questions.

"Um."

"Big brother, third brother said the doctor said he's going to collect medicinal herbs and even teach third brother how to process them!"

Before Lin Chaonan could answer, Lin Chaobei, who already knew the answer, immediately blurted it out.

Yue Jiuyue responded, and seeing that the three brothers were chatting quite lively, she didn't disturb them and went back to her room.

Her balance has increased again!

Although she only earned two thousand copper coins, or two taels of silver, in one afternoon, she was still as happy as a fool as she looked at her increasing balance.

"Mother, come out here for a moment, I have something to say!"
