"If that's the case, God must have fallen asleep!"
Zhao Lai Di stopped eating melon seeds and said angrily,
"Even though the Wen family did such a wicked thing, they still gave his family such a great blessing? Is there any justice in the world?"
The Third Master still hadn't figured out which family they were talking about, and seeing that the whole family was full of contempt, he was about to speak when he saw Old Man Tang puffing on his pipe and said indifferently,
"What happened with Guo'er back then was ultimately the fault of the old couple from the Wen family. They were able to dig up old ginseng because of their luck and ability. You can just talk about it at home, but don't be jealous just because they get the benefits. If you have the ability, go up the mountain and dig it yourself!"
Although it's a collective system now, the country people rely on the mountains for their livelihood. Which family in this village hasn't benefited from the mountains? It's just a matter of how much! Isn't the meat for his old Tang family also coming from these mountains this year?
Old Man Tang has lived in the village for most of his life and knows very well how difficult life is for country people. He will not allow them to do things like setting fires themselves but not others lighting lamps!
After hearing this, Tang Wen nodded and said no more.
Although the situation is somewhat relaxed now, private transactions have not been completely liberalized. 200 yuan is not a small amount of money in the village. If this matter is reported to certain departments above, the Wen family will inevitably suffer a catastrophe.
"The Wen family you're talking about, could it be the family that brought Guo'er here?"
The Third Master finally understood something! How could he have forgotten about them in the first place?
"That's right! If Guo'er's eldest brother hadn't come looking for her that year, we would have thought that Guo'er was his old Wen family's biological daughter."
Zhao Lai Di spoke quickly.
Seeing the Third Master's face darken, Lan Guoer knew that with his temper, he would attack the Wen brothers, so she quickly explained,
"Actually, when I was a kid, the Wen brothers weren't that bad to me! When the old couple didn't give me food, they would secretly send me food."
In the original owner's childhood memories, there are still a few scenes that make her feel warm. Although the two brothers were not very good to her, at least they did not torture her like the old couple of the Wen family.
Now that the old couple of the Wen family have received the punishment they deserve, she doesn't want to have any more disputes with them.
"snort!"
The fierce look on the Third Master's face finally faded a little!
"Luckily they knew what was best for them, otherwise I would have made their lives worse than death!"
What the Third Master has never said is that after finding out what happened to Lan Guoer, he secretly made some arrangements. The old couple from the Wen family who are currently doing labor reform are now having a very "wonderful" time in prison!
His Lan family will not allow themselves to be bullied!
"Is there really old ginseng on your mountain?"
What did you think of? asked the Third Master.
He had grown up in the Lan family and had seen a lot of good things! He knew exactly what price an old ginseng of a certain age and quality should sell for.
A hundred-year-old wild ginseng can be sold for thousands of dollars if sold to the right person.
The boy from the Wen family only sold it for 200 yuan, it was also his fault for not understanding the market.
Old Man Tang nodded. "I heard many people dug it up in the early years. Even if someone did find it these days, they wouldn't dare to say anything! This is a treasure mountain! It fed many people during those hard times!"
The Third Master's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, "Then does Brother Tang know if there is anyone in the village who has hidden old ginseng?"
Old Man Tang shook his head. "These days, who would dare to reveal this stuff to others? Even if they wanted to sell it, they would do it behind people's backs!"
Only then did Old Man Tang understand the meaning behind Third Master's words and asked, "Why, Third Brother, are you interested in this old ginseng?"
The Third Master said frankly, "This is a life-saving good! It's very valuable abroad! Even if you don't sell it, it will always come in handy if you keep some at home."
"Yes!" Old Man Tang nodded. How could he not know the goodness of this old ginseng? He sighed and said,
"It's just that this thing is hard to find! Experience alone isn't enough; you need luck too! Look, I've been crawling around in this mountain for most of my life, and I haven't even come across a single ginseng hair!"
......
Lan Guoer listened to the two of them talking back and forth, and couldn't help but imagine what their expressions would be if they knew that she had so many ginseng in her space that Xiaobai had to chew them like carrots...
The ginseng seeds that Mr. Meng had given her had already taken root and sprouted in her space, and then continued to produce new seeds, over and over again...
Now, the first batch she planted is already over twenty years old! At the growth rate in the space, it won't take more than a few years to generate a considerable income.
"If Third Uncle wants, I'll take you to the mountains in a couple of days to try your luck!"
At this time, Tang Zhan suddenly spoke.
Lan Guoer: “…” How could she forget about this big bug of his!
This man can communicate with all the insects and animals in the mountains. How difficult could it be for him to find a few ginseng plants?
Wow! It’s true that if you compare things, you will throw them away; if you compare people, you will die!
She was a little jealous of his golden finger!
"Okay! Just think of it as a walk!"
The Third Master obviously didn't hold out any hope for this...
“Crackle…”
As soon as the morning arrived, firecrackers rang out in the village.
There were no gorgeous fireworks, no New Year’s bells, but 1978 still arrived with hope and longing.
"Wife, Happy New Year!"
After returning home, Tang Zhan hugged Lan Guoer in his arms and gave her his first kiss of the new year.
"Fourth brother, you have to be happy too!"
Lan Guoer raised her arms and hugged his neck, offering her sweet lips to him.
Although they had a flash marriage, over the past two years, she has become more and more determined in her original choice.
The love this man gave her was not earth-shattering, not spectacular, nor romantic or passionate, but he tolerated her, understood her, supported her unconditionally, and gave her support...
He was like a ray of light in this strange world, making her feel warm and secure.
And this is exactly the love she wants.
"Wife, I am always happy with you around!"
The man said as he leaned over and put her under him...
How can this night be without passion...
Because he had to get up early to pay New Year's greetings, Tang Zhan finally held back and didn't bother her for too long.
At around four in the morning, Lan Guoer was awakened by the sound of firecrackers outside.
Tang Zhan was already dressed and was looking at her quietly in the night, as if he knew she was about to wake up.
Seeing her open her eyes, Tang Zhan raised the corners of his lips and took out the new clothes he had prepared for her before the New Year.
"Little lazy bum, if you stay in bed today, you'll stay in bed all year long!"
"What time is it?"
Lan Guoer came to her senses instantly. She was very familiar with the customs of the village.
At this time, everyone should start going around and visiting each other's homes to wish each other a happy new year.
"Don't worry, take your time."
Tang Zhan saw that she was so anxious that she put on the wrong trouser leg, so he helped her change it as if he was taking care of his little daughter.
