Beautiful country.
New York.
"Mom, I've found my little brother and sister-in-law, and their three children."
"By the way, my little brother also has two twin grandsons, who are very smart and cute. Mom, my little brother and sister-in-law said that their whole family will come here to visit next summer vacation."
"Mom, you must eat well and be good. When your younger brother and sister-in-law came back from the city, they brought you some nice things."
As soon as Su Huaiwen got home, he went to see his elderly mother and excitedly reported the good news to her.
Sure enough, when the elderly Su's mother heard the news about her youngest son's family, she immediately perked up.
"real?!"
"Are they doing well?! Why couldn't they come back with you this time?!"
Mother Su was eager to know all the news about her son's family. She hadn't seen them for decades, and she thought she would never hear from them again in her lifetime.
“My younger brother’s family is doing very well. My younger brother and sister-in-law are very smart, and they have kept everything that we left them. Dalin and Dalin went to their place of residence in person. They have no worries about food, drink and clothing, and they have money in their hands.”
“They can’t come back with us because my younger brother and sister-in-law both teach at Kyoto University. Not only do they work in Kyoto, but my younger brother’s eldest son and daughter-in-law also teach at Kyoto University. They don’t have holidays, so they can only come over next July when they start their summer vacation.”
Su Huaiwen carefully explained the situation of his younger brother's family to his elderly mother, hoping to reassure her and encourage her to patiently await their arrival.
Su's mother listened intently to the situation of Xiao'er's family, constantly snacking, and her expression gradually relaxed.
Very good.
The family is doing well.
The little boy said he would come to visit her next summer, and Su's mother's face lit up with a smile at the thought.
She must live a good life and live a long life so that she can see her son and his family more often.
"Boss, you just said your little brother asked you to bring something good to me?! What is it?! Let me see it quickly."
Mother Su hadn't forgotten that her eldest son had mentioned bringing her a gift, so she quickly asked him to take it out for her to see.
Su Huaiwen felt helpless because his elderly mother didn't even care about him. However, when he thought about the things his younger brother had given him, he really wanted to share them with his mother.
"Mom, I've always carried it with me."
After receiving it, Su Huaiwen always carried it with him, and even brought it with him to his elderly mother's house.
"Let me see quickly."
The old family had been impatient for a long time and kept urging their eldest son not to keep them in suspense.
Su Huaiwen quickly took the items out of his bag: two long wooden boxes and several small bottles.
"Mom, take a look."
As he spoke, he opened the first small wooden box, slowly revealing its contents.
A ginseng root, as big as a radish, had already been processed.
"This, this, this ginseng, how come it's so big?!"
Although Su's mother's eyesight was failing, she still managed to see the thing clearly and was shocked.
Even though the Su family is very wealthy, they don't have anything as good as ginseng, but they don't have such a large and good ginseng either.
"Mom, I was also shocked when I saw it. My younger brother said he dug it up in the deep mountains of Northeast China. It's to nourish your body and keep you alive. He'll come to see you next year."
Not to mention his mother was shocked, he himself was also shocked by the large ginseng. If his younger brother hadn't said it was for his mother, he wouldn't have dared to accept it.
"Okay, okay."
Mother Su nodded her head repeatedly with joy. She was determined to live a long and healthy life so she could see her old man a few more times.
"Then, what's this?! Did your little brother give it to you too?!"
She has sharp eyes; her eldest son had another box that he hadn't opened yet, and she was very curious about it.
Su Huaiwen quickly put away the large ginseng before going to get another wooden box.
"Mom, this was given to me by my little brother."
He opened it carefully. Along the way, he had wanted to open it to take a look several times, but he was afraid that the girl would see it.
There was also a large ginseng in this wooden box, but it was different from the one given to Su's mother; this ginseng was fresh.
Yes, like those freshly dug-out ones, plump and fresh, unprocessed, like a big radish.
"So big?!"
When Su's mother came closer to take a look, she couldn't help but be surprised. Most importantly, there wasn't just one, but two large ginseng roots.
"You gave him all your underlings, what's left for him?! Boss, how can you be so insensible?!"
After regaining her senses, the old mother slapped her eldest son on the head, furious. She was heartbroken for her son, feeling he was incredibly disobedient.
Su Huaiwen was caught off guard by the slap and then heard his mother's complaints, leaving him speechless.
Is he like that?!
He refused back then, okay?!
There was only so much of this life-saving stuff available, and the younger brother immediately stuffed two into his own mouth. He was also worried and declined.
As a result, the younger brother nonchalantly showed himself two more large ginseng roots, one fresh and one processed.
Then, then, he accepted it.
"Mom, my little brother has two more that are exactly the same. He showed them to me, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to accept them."
His mother is so biased; he feels so wronged.
Upon hearing this, Su's mother's expression immediately brightened.
"real?!"
“Even pearls aren’t this real. Mom, I feel so sorry for my little brother.”
They were born of the same mother, twin brothers, how come he doesn't love his younger brother?!
and……
"Mom, I also bought three houses for my younger brother, and he and his wife really like them."
Su Huaiwen then boasted to his elderly mother about how he bought three houses for Su Huaiyuan and Qiao Jiuru.
After saying all this, Su Huaiwen remembered those bottles, which his younger brother and sister-in-law had given him.
“Mom, these medicines were given to me by my sister-in-law. You know, her ancestors were imperial physicians, and her family has practiced medicine for generations. They have a lot of good medicines left over. When I came back, my sister-in-law gave them to me. But don't worry, she still has quite a lot.”
Su Huaiwen showed the bottles to his elderly mother; each bottle had the name of the medicine and its effects written on it.
Health Pills.
Strengthening and fitness pills.
꿀Cough pills.
꿀Tongwan.
Ointment for rheumatic pain.
The name is easy to understand; you can tell at a glance what 놆 means.
Mother Su looked at the bottles and jars carefully, nodding repeatedly. Her family and the Qiao family had known each other for generations, so she naturally trusted the Qiao family's medical skills.
"Boss, give me a health-boosting pill."
She must live well, take care of her health, and wait for her father and his family to come and visit her.
ah? !
How can you just eat like that?!
Su Huaiwen was completely dumbfounded.
However, he trusted his younger siblings, and since the old lady insisted on eating it, he gave it to her.
Looking at the charred pill in her hand, about the size of a peanut, Su's mother stuffed it into her mouth without hesitation.
She didn't swallow; she just held it in her mouth until it melted, until there was nothing left in her mouth.
Soon, she felt her body getting slightly warm. After the warmth subsided, her usually heavy body felt lighter than before.
Su's mother's eyes lit up immediately.
"Boss, you should have one too."
The eldest son is not young anymore, he must eat too, Su's mother urged.
Su Huaiwen had been closely watching his elderly mother's expression after she took the pill. When he saw that her complexion had visibly improved, especially her eyes which were surprisingly bright, he knew that the pill might be very miraculous.
At his mother's urging, he obediently put one in his mouth.
The medicinal smell is strong and intense, a little bitter and a little sweet, but the taste is acceptable.
After it melted in his mouth, Su Huaiwen clearly felt a warming sensation starting from his abdomen, and his heartbeat became noticeably more regular. In particular, his throat, which had been somewhat uncomfortable before, now felt much clearer.
Su Huaiwen's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and then they met his mother's bright, sparkling eyes.
