Chapter 80 We're rich! We're rich!
Mu Chunping carefully picked up her little girl from the ground and looked at the "white radish" in her hand.
"Ningbao, did you hurt yourself? Are you hurt?"
Ningbao shook her head blankly.
"without."
Mu Chunping looked again at the "white radish" that Ning Bao had been staring at.
"Ningbao, where did you get this radish? I've noticed you've been staring at it. Is there something wrong with it?"
Hearing Mu Chunping's question, Ning Bao's eyes didn't leave the "radish" in her hand. She held the "radish" and smelled it.
"Dad, this thing tripped me when I rolled down from up there, and I got angry and pulled it off."
"Dad, look, this doesn't look like a radish. It doesn't taste like a radish at all."
"Not a radish?" Mu Chunping also squatted down curiously to look at what Ning Bao was holding.
"Ningbao, isn't this a radish? But it looks like a big white radish with a rather strange shape."
Ning Bao shook her head.
"Father, smell this, it smells a bit like medicine, it seems to be..."
Ning Bao thought about it for a moment,
"Yes, I remember now. I think I've seen this before. I saw it in my senior brother's medicine chest last year when he was still at the Taoist temple."
However, his was much smaller than mine. I remember Master saying that it was a good thing, very nourishing and even life-saving, and that the eldest brother was an ingrate who didn't give him good things.
"Oh, right, I remember now, Master said it was ginseng."
"Ginseng?" Mu Chunping was quite surprised to hear Ningbao mention ginseng.
"Ningbao, are you sure you're not mistaken? I've seen ginseng before. Someone in the village dug it up on the mountain before, but it was only as thick as a little finger."
"This is so big; if it were ginseng, it would be the king of ginseng."
"This is indeed the King of Ginseng."
Upon hearing that Ning Bao had rolled down the hillside to find him, Shen Junshan looked at the ginseng in Ning Bao's hand and said seriously,
“Ningbao’s ginseng is priceless. It can’t be shown off casually. You should keep it safe for now, as others will come looking for it later.”
Before Shen Junshan could finish speaking, Ning Bao swiftly stored the ginseng in her storage talisman.
Shen Junshan affectionately wiped her chubby little face, which was covered in dust, with his hand.
"Look how dirty you've become. Tell your uncle where you found the ginseng and I'll go check around to see if there's any more."
Ning Bao pointed to the hillside where he had just rolled down.
“Look, I just pulled it off when I rolled down from there.”
Shen Junshan: "…………"
Shen Junshan glanced up.
"I'll go take a look."
After Shen Junshan finished speaking, he jumped up to the top.
Mu Chunping looked at her brother-in-law's skills with envy in her eyes.
The Shen family are not locals from the border region; they moved to a neighboring village more than a decade ago.
Only Shen Junshan and his sister Shen Yuzhen came at the time, but according to villagers from a neighboring village, someone brought them there.
When they first arrived, Shen Junshan was 16 and Shen Yuzhen was 12. The two siblings stumbled and struggled to settle down in the village.
When Shen Yuzhen was 16, she went to the foot of the mountain to dig for wild vegetables and was bullied by a local bully. She was rescued by Mu Chunping, who happened to be passing by. Over time, the two developed feelings for each other.
At the time, many people advised Li Guizhi that the Shen family was an outsider and not reliable, saying that their family might have committed some crime to come to the border region, and that she should not marry such a daughter-in-law.
But Li Guizhi took a liking to Shen Yuzhen and her brother at first sight. She didn't ask about the Shen family's past, but only asked two questions.
One question was directed at her son. She asked Mu Chunping if he had truly committed to Shen Yuzhen, and if he was willing to stay with his wife Shen Yuzhen no matter what happened in the future.
Mu Chunping nodded without hesitation and said firmly,
"I will never regret it later."
The other question was directed at Shen Yuzhen.
"Young lady, will you live a good life with my son and become a daughter-in-law of the Mu family?"
Although Shen Yuzhen hesitated slightly, she finally nodded firmly.
Mu Chunping had always known that his wife had a secret, but now, seeing his brother-in-law's skills, he suddenly felt that perhaps the Shen family was really not simple.
