As soon as you step into the courtyard, you are greeted by the fragrance of flowers.
Several mimosa trees planted in the distance are in bloom, their pink blossoms creating a beautiful sight.
The flowers of the mimosa tree have the effects of clearing the mind and improving eyesight, relieving depression and calming the nerves.
So Mr. Gu planted a few trees at the entrance, which created a unique scene.
After bypassing the front yard, Su Zhengnan arrived at the inner courtyard. As soon as he stepped into the inner courtyard, his teacher's wife, Zhang Suya, came to greet him.
"Oh dear, Xiao Su, you've come all this way, why did you bring something?"
Zhang Suya immediately noticed the gift box Su Zhengnan was carrying. She smiled and walked over, saying with a hint of doting, "You bring a gift to your teacher's house? Aren't you afraid your teacher will scold you?"
Su Zhengnan smiled and scratched his head, saying, "You don't have to bring any other gifts, but the teacher will definitely like this one."
"Oh, really?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhang Suya's eyes. She knew her husband's preferences all too well.
Aside from medicine, it's mostly medicinal herbs, or antiques and calligraphy.
Could it be that the gift Xiao Su brought is some kind of antique calligraphy or painting?
Thinking of this, Zhang Suya couldn't help but laugh and say, "Even if the teacher likes what you buy, he doesn't want to see you spend so much money. How much is your monthly salary? Don't let yourself go hungry just to buy a gift for your teacher!"
Zhang Suya was naturally very clear about Su Zhengnan's previous family background.
Therefore, she did not want Su Zhengnan to spend too much money just to please the old man in the family.
Su Zhengnan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Madam, my salary is definitely enough to live on. This thing wasn't bought with money; I got it from somewhere else."
"Alright, alright, as long as you know what you're doing."
Zhang Suya smiled and waved her hand, then said no more. She knew that the old man's last disciple had a strong sense of pride.
Then, Zhang Suya pointed to the hall opposite and said, "Your second senior brother and fifth senior brother have already arrived and are having tea with your teacher over there. You should go over there too!"
"Yes, Madam!"
Su Zhengnan smiled and agreed, then carried the century-old wild ginseng to the hall opposite.
"Yo ho, junior brother's here!"
As soon as Su Zhengnan entered the hall, his second senior brother, Mo Chaoyang, who was sitting on his right, greeted him with a smile and a faint smile on his face.
Second Senior Brother Mo Chaoyang is almost fifty years old this year. He is the second disciple to join the master's school after the eldest senior brother.
At this time, Mo Chaoyang was the vice president of the Beijing Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It was said that he would soon be promoted to president, and he had quite a few disciples and followers.
Su Zhengnan smiled and nodded at Mo Chaoyang, then presented the gift in his hand to Old Master Gu.
"Teacher, this is a gift from your student. I hope you will like it!"
"A gift? When did I ask you to give me a gift!"
Gu Fangzhou glared at him with some displeasure, then said indifferently, "I don't need this gift. You can take it back after you finish lunch!"
Clearly, he didn't like Su Zhengnan's behavior of giving gifts to the teacher.
Especially since the other party was his favorite disciple.
Su Zhengnan was not surprised by this. He smiled and opened the gift box, saying, "Teacher, please take a look at what this gift is before you decide. I promise I wouldn't have brought anything else for you, but you must accept this gift."
"oh?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Fangzhou's expression froze for a moment before he looked down at the box that Su Zhengnan had opened.
As soon as he looked down, Gu Fangzhou's expression changed immediately.
With a whoosh!
Gu Fangzhou snatched the box from Su Zhengnan's hand, looked at the ginseng lying inside, smacked his lips, and said:
"This is... a hundred-year-old wild ginseng?"
Just one glance.
Gu Fangzhou immediately recognized that the ginseng in his hand was at least a hundred years old, and also realized that it was wild, not artificially cultivated.
"What? A century-old wild ginseng?"
As soon as Gu Fangzhou said this, Mo Chaoyang and Li Huai'an, who were sitting next to him, stood up excitedly and looked closely at the ginseng lying in the box in the teacher's hand.
Li Huai'an is Su Zhengnan's fifth senior brother. He is over thirty years old this year and is currently the director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at the First People's Hospital of Beijing.
Putting aside everything else.
Just based on the status of these two senior brothers in the medical field, either of them would be a big shot.
It was only because Su Zhengnan's original body owner insisted on staying at the Beijing Film Academy to become a school doctor.
Otherwise...
It's likely that Su Zhengnan could easily become the head of a department in any hospital in Beijing.
A glint of light flashed in Gu Fangzhou's eyes as he reached out and stroked the roots of the ginseng, murmuring, "That's right, this is definitely a hundred-year-old wild ginseng. I can't be wrong."
At this point, Gu Fangzhou paused for a moment, then looked at Su Zhengnan and asked:
"Where did you get this? This is a rare treasure that money can't buy, a hundred-year-old wild ginseng! I've only ever seen one like it once in my life!"
Speaking of which, Gu Fangzhou had seen a hundred-year-old wild ginseng before.
However, I only saw him once, when I was treating a big shot at a state banquet, and I never saw him again.
Su Zhengnan smiled slightly and said, "Teacher, as long as you like it, that's fine. Don't worry about where it came from. It's definitely legal. Just accept it."
"This thing is far too precious for me, teacher. I am not worthy of it. You should take it back!"
After pondering for a moment, Gu Fangzhou shook his head, feeling that the gift was too precious and that he could not accept such an expensive gift from his disciple.
Seeing this, Su Zhengnan quickly advised, "Teacher, please accept it. This thing is useless to me; it will only have the best effect in your hands."
Su Zhengnan did not mention that he had several hundred-year-old wild ginseng plants.
He was afraid the teacher wouldn't be able to handle the shock.
Moreover, it's best if only he himself knows about having a cheat system.
The second senior brother, Mo Chaoyang, also advised, "Yes, teacher, since junior brother has said so, you should accept this. This hundred-year-old wild ginseng is indeed very precious, but it can only exert its maximum medicinal effect in your hands!"
Although Mo Chaoyang also coveted the century-old wild ginseng, he naturally couldn't possibly ask for something his junior brother had given to their teacher.
Moreover, this level of Chinese herbal medicine properties.
It's estimated that only a master of traditional Chinese medicine like their teacher would know how to maximize their medicinal effects.
In fact, with Su Zhengnan's current medical skills, he could also bring out the maximum medicinal effect of a century-old wild ginseng, but he simply doesn't lack it.
So it doesn't really matter whether it's wasteful or not.
