Yang Youxue left the room in a good mood, planning to run a lap to exercise her body, and almost bumped into Huang Lifang and her husband who suddenly arrived.
"Youxue, are you okay?" Huang Lifang didn't sleep well all night. She was worried about her son and wanted to go over to see him, but she was afraid of disturbing Youxue, so she had to toss and turn in bed, which made Zhang Shude even more nervous and unable to sleep. He finally made it until dawn and hurried over, almost bumping into Youxue.
"It's okay, auntie!" After Yang Youxue stood firm, she patted her heart which was beating loudly. She was almost hit, and her small body couldn't bear it.
"Youxue, I'm sorry. I was so anxious that I didn't see you and almost bumped into you." Huang Lifang said to Yang Youxue with a guilty look on her face.
"It's okay, I understand. Auntie has good news for you. Cousin Haojie is fine now. He can drink some porridge when he wakes up." Yang Youxue could understand her aunt's feelings and told her the good news that cousin Haojie had passed the critical period.
"Youxue, is it true? Haojie is fine now?" Huang Lifang was still not sure after hearing the good news. She was afraid that she had heard it wrong and wanted to confirm it one more time.
"Aunt, cousin Haojie is really fine now, but he hasn't woken up yet. Please don't go over there for the time being. Cousin Haoxuan and Bai Chen have just fallen asleep. Don't go in and wake them up." Yang Youxue once again told Huang Lifang that cousin Haojie was fine and asked her not to go in and wake up cousin Haoxuan and Bai Chen.
"Okay, auntie won't go in. Youxue, you're sleepy too. Why don't you go back to your room and take a nap." Huang Lifang was very excited to hear the good news. Her son was finally safe. Seeing the dark circles under Yang Youxue's eyes, she felt guilty. She was so tired because of saving her son. She must repay Youxue's kindness.
"I won't go to sleep until cousin Haojie wakes up," Yang Youxue said. Although Haojie had passed the critical period, they still had to wait for him to wake up and ask about other conditions before they could know if it was safe.
"Thank you for your hard work, Youxue. How long will it take for Haojie to wake up?" Huang Lifang asked Yang Youxue.
"He will wake up in about half an hour. Auntie, go prepare some porridge. By the way, this is ginseng beard. Add a little bit to the porridge." Yang Youxue told Huang Lifang that cousin Haojie would wake up in just half an hour, and gave Huang Lifang some ginseng beard to cook porridge for cousin Haojie.
"Ginseng beard, where did Youxue get this from?" Huang Lifang looked at the ginseng beard in shock. Ginseng is very expensive.
"Daughter, when did you buy the ginseng?" I just happened to be supporting Huang Lijuan to check on my daughter and Haojie, and I heard my daughter mention ginseng roots.
"Dad, this is not bought. This is what my daughter dug up when she went to Taohualing last time." Yang Youxue told Yang Zhongyi and others what happened when she dug ginseng in Taohualing.
"Daughter, are you saying this is the Ginseng King?" Yang Zhongyi widened his eyes and opened his mouth wide, unable to close it, with a look of shock on his face.
The others were not much better off. They all looked at the ginseng beard in Yang Youxue's hand in disbelief. "Ginseng King!" It was said that it could bring the dead back to life.
"It's the ginseng king, about a thousand years old, so there are big poisonous snakes around it to protect it." Yang Youxue said to everyone.
"A thousand years?" Everyone asked in shock. A thousand-year-old ginseng could really bring the dead back to life. It was said to be a priceless treasure. They all felt that Haojie was wasting it by eating those ginseng roots.
"Don't look at me like that. Ginseng is meant to be eaten. Wait a minute, I'll take some out and stew it with old hen for everyone to drink to nourish your body." Yang Youxue said to everyone.
"No, we don't want to drink it. You should exchange it for silver." Everyone said in unison.
Ginseng King, these poor people can’t afford to eat it, so they should exchange it for silver.
"It's okay, that's it. Besides, our family is not short of money, and ginseng is for nourishing the body." Yang Youxue said.
"Just do as you say, Youxue. Why didn't you tell us such a big thing? Also, why didn't you bring the person who saved you home so that we can prepare gifts to thank him." Since Youxue wanted to nourish her family, he didn't object. As Youxue said, their family was not short of money, but she couldn't just ignore the dangerous thing she concealed.
"Dad, I'm fine, aren't I? That's why I didn't tell you so you wouldn't worry. Dad, do you remember the little boy you saved? It was his guard who saved me, so I asked you to send him to the county government office and ask the county magistrate to help him find someone." Yang Youxue told Yang Zhongyi that it was the little boy's guard who saved her.
"Youxue suspected that he had other intentions. No wonder when I went to the county government office the next day to ask the county magistrate about the situation, he said that he had helped the little boy find his family and that the little boy had returned home." Yang Zhongyi felt very suspicious after hearing what his daughter Youxue said. He thought that the little boy approached them with a purpose, so he told his daughter about going to see the county magistrate.
"No matter what, he's gone. He probably won't be around us again." Yang Youxue didn't understand what that familiar-looking boy was after. A hot pot soup base recipe? A recipe for Yang's Restaurant dishes? Or a puppet shop?
