Wei Xiao reached out and helped Lin Qinghuan up, carefully placing the gauze on her face. "Your body is still very weak. You stand aside and watch, I'll dig for wild ginseng."
Lin Qinghuan couldn't tell Wei Xiao that she had drunk the spiritual spring water and her health had already recovered, otherwise she wouldn't have had the energy to go up the mountain.
Lin Qinghuan rolled her eyes, then tugged at Wei Xiao's hand and said coquettishly, "Brother Wei Xiao, will you carry me home later?"
Wei Xiao looked at Lin Qinghuan with amusement, "Sure, as long as you're comfortable with it."
Lin Qinghuan raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "Why would I be embarrassed if my boyfriend carries me on his back? I'm proud of it!"
Looking at Lin Qinghuan's charming and adorable appearance, Wei Xiao couldn't help but smile. He couldn't help but embrace her, kiss her red lips, and lingered on them, savoring the sweetness in her mouth.
After the kiss ended, Wei Xiao looked down at Lin Qinghuan with a slight smile. He saw that Lin Qinghuan's pretty face was flushed, her pink lips were red, and her breathing was a little heavy and disordered. He couldn't help but lightly peck at Lin Qinghuan's red lips before letting go of her.
Since meeting Lin Qinghuan, his self-control has decreased.
Lin Qinghuan blushed as she watched Wei Xiao dig for wild ginseng.
Wei Xiao carefully dug out the wild ginseng and handed it to Lin Qinghuan, saying, "Qinghuan, you're lucky. I think this wild ginseng is over thirty years old."
Lin Qinghuan accepted the wild ginseng and said, "Grandpa gave me a villa, and I plan to give him the wild ginseng to help him recover."
"Of course, we should hurry back and not keep Grandpa and the others waiting," Wei Xiao said.
Lin Qinghuan said, "I haven't picked up the pine mushrooms I dropped yet."
"Never mind, don't take it anymore," Wei Xiao said, pulling Lin Qinghuan's hand to comfort her.
Lin Qinghuan remembered that she had pine fungus in her space, so she obediently nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Wei Xiao and Lin Qinghuan returned to Grandma Lin's grave. Grandpa Lin and the others were surprised to see Lin Qinghuan's disheveled appearance.
"Qinghuan, what happened to you?" Lin's father asked with concern.
Wei Xiao put down the hoe and said on Lin Qinghuan's behalf, "She slipped and fell while looking for pine mushrooms."
“The hill on the other side is a steep slope. You must have been careless and not watching your step when you fell,” Lin’s father said confidently.
Lin Qinghuan took off her shoes and angrily slapped them on the ground.
"I was very careful. I slipped because my shoes were too slippery. I'll throw them in the trash when I get back."
Seeing Lin Qinghuan childishly taking her anger out on the shoes, Lin's father couldn't help but laugh, "Silly girl!"
"I'm not stupid!" Lin Qinghuan said, taking out the wild ginseng and waving it around proudly. "See? This is wild ginseng. I tripped and fell down, and a wild ginseng appeared in front of me."
Lin Qinghuan handed it to Grandpa Lin, saying, "Grandpa, this wild ginseng is for you to nourish your body."
Grandpa Lin looked at Lin Qinghuan and asked in shock, "Did you dig up this wild ginseng on the back slope?"
Seeing Grandpa Lin's surprised expression, Lin Qinghuan stuffed the wild ginseng into his hand and said, "Grandpa, I already told you that the wild ginseng was dug up on the slope behind us. Why are you still asking?"
The three Lin brothers looked at each other in disbelief. What incredible luck! They could find wild ginseng just by falling down. They would have been willing to fall down ten times over.
"Qinghuan, I've also looked for pine mushrooms there, but I haven't seen any," Uncle Lin said enviously.
“Uncle, you must have been so focused on finding pine mushrooms that you didn’t pay attention and missed it,” Lin Qinghuan said.
Looking at the wild mushroom in Grandpa Lin's hand, Lin's father said, "Qinghuan, pine mushrooms are delicious and many people like to eat them. Every year, many people search for pine mushrooms on the back slope, but no one has ever found a treasure there."
Grandpa Lin handed the wild ginseng to Lin Fu and said solemnly, "This is a gift from Qinghuan. Keep it safe and don't lose it."
"Don't worry, boss, I will keep the wild ginseng safe and make sure it's not lost," Lin Fu said.
Wei Hong looked at the wild ginseng in Lin Fu's hand. It seemed to be quite old, as the roots were still intact and it was in good condition.
Lin Qinghuan remembered the pine mushrooms that had fallen in the pine forest and said regretfully, "I originally wanted to pick up the fallen pine mushrooms, but Wei Xiao didn't want you to wait too long, so he wouldn't let me pick them up and insisted that I come back quickly."
"It's alright. If you want to eat pine mushrooms, I'll have your brother and the others go find some to take home later," said Lin's father.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qinghuan's eyes lit up. "Dad, you're so kind! I'm really craving pine mushrooms."
Looking at Lin Qinghuan's radiant appearance, a strange emotion welled up in Lin's father's heart, and his eyes became slightly hot.
He knelt before Grandma Lin's tombstone, burning paper money as he said, "Mother, Qinghuan has come to see you. She is still as beautiful, smart, and kind as before. She has found an excellent boyfriend, who is the grandson of your close friend from your youth. He treats Qinghuan very well, so you can rest assured!"
Lin Qinghuan's mood instantly plummeted, and she knelt down beside her father to burn paper money for her grandmother.
"Mother, my father is back too. He's rich now, but unfortunately you're not fortunate enough to enjoy it. I wonder which little vixen got it," Lin's father continued.
Lin Qinghuan paused for a moment while burning the paper money, then continued burning it as if nothing had happened.
Wei Xiao looked up at the sky, but he heard nothing.
Uncle Lin glanced at Grandpa Lin without saying a word, then knelt down to burn paper money for Grandma Lin.
