Chapter 190 Uncle, I have an old ginseng
Even a relatively old ginseng would cost dozens of taels in a pharmacy, but an ordinary farmer could not save much money in a year, so how could he afford to buy it?
Originally, Zhao Kangping had agreed with the owner of the drugstore next door to buy some medicine before his wife gave birth, but something unexpected happened and he was so busy bringing his wife home that he didn't have time to do anything else.
Looking at the people busy inside and outside the house, Su Wanyan was protected by Ji Xiaohan by the window. She looked at the slightly bright sky outside, glanced at Ji Xiaohan, and there was a hint of excitement in her eyes.
Seeing the young princess's soft-hearted expression, Ji Xiaohan nodded helplessly. Then, Su Wanyan pretended to take out a piece of old ginseng wrapped in red cloth from her sleeve, but in fact, she took it out from her space. She said to the Zhao family father and son who were anxiously pacing around the room, "Old man, I have a piece of old ginseng here. We can't use it for the time being. I'll give it to you. Just consider it as a thank you from my husband and me for taking us in."
Old Man Zhao and Zhao Kangping, like everyone else, looked at the two of them in astonishment. What kind of wealthy family could so casually give out old ginseng as a thank-you gift?
Looking at their calm expressions, it seemed as if giving such a thank-you gift was a perfectly normal thing...
"Uncle?" Seeing that the father and son did not move, Su Wanyan raised her voice and the tone became higher.
Old Zhao woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude, not caring whether it was reasonable or not, and let his son take it first, "Thank you, young master and young lady, for your generous gifts. You are our great benefactors..."
Lao Shen was quickly sent to the delivery room. Zhao Kangping turned around and wanted to kneel down to Ji Xiaohan and the others in gratitude, but Ji Xiaohan stopped him, "It's okay, take care of your family first. We'll leave at dawn, and we don't have anything valuable with us, so it's great if we can help you."
The more casual Ji Xiaohan's words were, the more grateful they were. So, Ji Xiaohan took the opportunity to tell them that he hoped everyone would not reveal their whereabouts to outsiders. Naturally, they agreed.
They also realized that the young couple came from an extraordinary family. The fact that they stayed in their village last night probably meant that they had some unspeakable secrets. They were just ordinary people. When encountering such a thing, even if the young man didn't say anything, they would not go out and tell others about it.
Yan's voice was heard again in the delivery room, and she sounded more energetic than before. So, the midwife once again instructed the woman to push and encouraged her. This time, the movement inside gave hope to the men waiting outside again.
After struggling for a while, although the baby still couldn't be born smoothly, the situation inside was not as dangerous as at the beginning. Everyone waited for another half an hour, but the baby still showed no sign of coming out.
This is probably going to be very tiring.
It was already dawn outside, and Ji Xiaohan and Su Wanyan could no longer help here, so they asked to leave. Old Man Zhao hurriedly escorted the two benefactors all the way to the village entrance, and repeatedly assured them that they would not say anything to others. He watched them walk towards the path out of the village before turning back.
When Old Man Zhao disappeared, Xiao Yi led the others out of the nearby woods. Shaoyao and Aunt Rong immediately stepped forward, carefully examining their young lady. "Master, Princess, are you all right?"
