Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun couldn't help but smile when they saw this. Although Lin Qing had plenty of ginseng of this quality in her space since she could grow ginseng, even some that were thousands or tens of thousands of years old, she didn't dare to take them out. Otherwise, it would be too outrageous, and she was worried that it would scare everyone.
"Mom and Dad, this is a gift from Nanxun and me to you!"
Then Lin Qing handed Zhao Xuan a long, narrow wooden box.
Zhao Xuan took the box with a smile and happily opened it. Inside was another ginseng root, but it was smaller than the one she had given to Liu Xiuyun.
"Thank you, Qingqing, thank you, Nanxun!" Zhao Xuan said with a smile as she reached out and hugged Lin Qing.
"Mom, this is a 300-year-old ginseng. Keep it for future use."
Lin Qing smiled and hugged Zhao Xuan back.
Zhao Xuan smiled and nodded. She wasn't upset at all that the ginseng Lin Qing gave her was smaller than the one her mother-in-law had given her. She knew better than anyone that she had eaten countless ginseng pills made by Lin Qing over the past year, and their value far exceeded that of the ginseng given to her mother-in-law.
Then Lin Qing handed Hu Ying a long, narrow wooden box: "Second Uncle and Second Aunt, this is a gift from Nanxun and me to you!"
Hu Ying reached out and took it, then said excitedly, "This can't be ginseng too, can it?!"
Lin Qing smiled and nodded: "It's also a 300-year-old ginseng. Second Aunt and your Second Uncle should keep it for future use!"
"Qingqing, Nanxun, where did you get so many ginseng?" Chen Guozhong's face turned red. It took him a long time to calm down before he asked Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun.
"We picked them on the mountain. My brother Nanxun and I accidentally found a ginseng nest and picked more than 20 ginseng roots in total!"
Lin Qing said with a smile.
As Gu Nianqing nestled in Liu Xiuyun's arms, listening to her mother deceiving everyone, she couldn't help but smile.
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped. Even Chen Bin and Lu Xianghong were astonished. They only knew that Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing loved to go to the mountains, but they never knew that they had such an extraordinary encounter.
However, they weren't jealous. After all, the mountain was there, and countless people from the Chaoyang Brigade had come and gone, yet none of them had managed to gather so much ginseng. Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing's ability to gather ginseng on the mountain meant they were lucky, something they couldn't be jealous of, though of course they would still feel envious.
Then Lin Qing gave each of Chen Zhihua, Chen Yaohua, Chen Aihua, and Chen Bin a wooden box.
Chen Zhihua, Chen Yaohua, Chen Aihua, and Chen Bin eagerly opened the wooden box.
Inside the wooden box, there lay a book.
Chen Yaohua picked up the book out of curiosity and saw the five large characters written on it: "Starry Heart Condensation Technique".
"Nanxun, what is this?" Chen Yaohua asked curiously. The others also looked at the book in their hands, which also had the five large characters "Starry Heart Condensation Technique" written on it, and looked at Gu Nanxun with curiosity.
"This is a cultivation manual, and it's also the mental cultivation method that Qingqing and I are currently practicing. The ones you're holding are handwritten by Qingqing and me. Our family is a military family, so we face some dangers more or less. This cultivation method is suitable for everyone, regardless of age or gender. I hope everyone can practice this method when they have time. It can not only strengthen your body, but also increase your strength to protect yourself!"
And it can prolong life, but Gu Nanxun didn't say that, since it sounded too outrageous.
Upon hearing her father's introduction, Gu Nianqing looked curiously at the book in Chen Aihua's hand beside her.
Chen Aihua noticed Gu Nianqing's movements and scooped him up from Liu Xiuyun's arms. "What? Does our little Nianqing want to study too?" Chen Aihua said, opening the book in her hand for Gu Nianqing to see.
Gu Nianqing glanced at it and then stopped looking. It was just a book from the mortal realm. Just like her father said, it could only improve one's skills, increase strength, and improve physical fitness. Even the effect of prolonging life was only slight. However, it was indeed suitable for people in this world to learn. After all, this world had no spiritual energy, and they couldn't learn more profound techniques. Instead, ordinary mortal techniques were more suitable for them.
At this moment, Chen Guozhong finished reading the book in his hand. He returned the book to Chen Zhihua, then pondered for a moment and said with a serious expression, "From now on, this book can only be studied by our Chen family. No one is allowed to reveal this book to outsiders, otherwise it will cause trouble. Everyone must remember this. The best way is for you to remember this book and then destroy it."
After hearing Chen Guozhong's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
What Chen Guozhong didn't know was that Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing dared to take out this book because they had placed a prohibition on it: anyone who had read the book could only communicate with others who had also read it, and was not allowed to communicate with those who had not read it.
The ban was drawn by Gu Nanxun during a Chinese New Year lottery. After winning the lottery, they immediately decided to have their family members study the book.
Lin Qing's parents and third brother, Lin Yunfeng, have already studied the material. Only Lin Qing's eldest and second brothers haven't studied it yet. Because their eldest and second brothers are in the military, all their belongings are subject to inspection. Therefore, Lin Qing doesn't dare to mail it to them and can only give it to them in person when she has the opportunity to see them in the future.
After that, no one was in the mood to chat anymore. Everyone was focused on studying the secret manual in their hands. Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun looked at each other, shrugged helplessly, and finally carried Gu Nianqing back to their room.
Before leaving, Lin Qing also gave Lu Xianghong a gift, a gold bracelet. Lu Xianghong's eyes immediately welled up with tears upon seeing it.
"Qingqing, this is too precious, I can't accept it!"
Lu Xianghong shook her head and handed the gift back to Lin Qing, refusing it.
"Take it! First, we're sisters. Second, we'll be sisters-in-law soon. It's just a gift, not too expensive, so please accept it!"
Lin Qing smiled, patted Lu Xianghong's hand, and handed the gift back.
"Take it. Since it's a gift from Qingqing, just take it! From now on, we're family, so don't be so polite."
Seeing this, Zhao Xuan also offered her advice.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xianghong turned her gaze to Chen Bin. Chen Bin noticed Lu Xianghong's gaze and then looked at the gifts that she and Lin Qing were passing around. He immediately understood and nodded to Lu Xianghong, who then accepted the gifts.
Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Lu Xianghong had accepted the gift, and then left with Gu Nanxun.
After returning to their room, the two went into the space again. They had already slept during the day, so they weren't sleepy. Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun then began to unwrap the gifts they hadn't had time to unwrap during the day.
