Chapter 7 Accidentally Unearthed Millennium Ginseng
After the father and daughter finished talking, Father Xu looked at Xu Jianing with some distress, "Ning'er, does your leg still hurt?"

"Why don't you wait for Dad to come? You wait, I'll chop a more useful bamboo pole right now, don't kick it with your feet anymore. I thought."

He didn't have the nerve to finish the rest of the sentence, and Xu Jianing also knew that his father probably thought she was abnormal.Who told her to hurt her head before?

She just nodded awkwardly.

Worrying about her father being honest, she told them how they made money.She warned with some concern, "Father, let's quietly take back all the chestnuts on the tree these few days. Maybe someone will ask you after seeing it, but you must not tell the truth to others."

"Don't worry, Ning'er, dad knows. They all wish they had nothing to do with our family now, who would pay attention to our family's affairs?"

"You just wait here. I'll go look for bamboo poles nearby and see if the beehives are still there. If there are any, get one or two back."

Xu Jianing nodded in satisfaction, and continued to pick up chestnuts on the ground.

Not long after, Father Xu walked towards her, dragging a medium-thick bamboo in his left hand and two honeycombs in his right hand.

Seeing him like this, Xu Jianing hurried forward to help get things, "Father, are you okay? Have you been stung by those bees?"

Father Xu shook his head at her with an unnatural expression.

"It's okay, it's okay, my father has done this honeycomb thing since he was a child. Now at this age, how could he still be stung by them? Do you see if there is enough honey? If there is not enough, father will find it for you."

"Is it really okay?" Xu Jianing stared at his father suspiciously.

Seeing this, Xu's father felt a little terrified.Why did he feel a little afraid of this girl?

He unconsciously touched his sore hands, just now, when he was digging out the hive, he accidentally got stung by those bees a few times.

I didn't think there was anything at the time, but I didn't expect it to start to hurt and itch now.How could he have the nerve to say it and make the child feel uncomfortable?
This little move of his naturally did not escape Xu Jianing's eyes.

Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, Xu Jianing took his hand and looked at it seriously.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but gasp, her hands were red and swollen with fermented steamed buns, and it was hard to make fists right now.

Seeing that there were bee stingers that hadn't been dealt with yet, she sighed and pulled them out gently.

After doing this, she complained angrily, "Father, you lied to me! Look at your hands, they are all swollen like this, and you still say it's okay?"

Xu's father did not expect Xu Jianing's emotions to be so excited.

He explained with some unease, "Ning'er, don't be angry, Dad is afraid that you will worry. It's really fine, you see, it doesn't affect my work at all."

In order to prove that what he said was true, Xu's father picked up the sickle in the back basket and began to trim the bamboo that had been dragged back.

The instant sweat on his forehead betrayed his physical discomfort.

Seeing him pretending to be nonchalant and smiling at Xu Jianing, he didn't forget to comfort her, "Look, I've already been told that I'm fine, do you believe me now? When Dad finishes the bamboo pole, I'll help you remove the bamboo pole from the tree. Knock out all the chestnuts."

He didn't know that this action of his made the sensitive Xu Jianing feel so uncomfortable that he would die.

She turned around quickly, wiped away her tears secretly, and after adjusting her mood, she turned and said to Xu's busy father, "Father, don't worry, take your time, I'll go find something nearby."

Fearing that Xu's father would refuse, she left quickly after leaving this sentence.

Looking at the back that had already gone far, Father Xu couldn't help reminding loudly, "Ning'er, don't go too far, pay attention to safety, remember to whistle!"

Xu Jianing turned his head, waved at him, and gradually disappeared from his sight.

Xu Jianing, who was making marks along the way, lowered his head and used a wooden stick to pick and pull things in the grass.

But after working for a long time, she couldn't find what she wanted.

She was a little discouraged and poked the soil on the ground with a wooden stick.She paid attention to this journey, why couldn't she find a single useful herb?
Her idea was very simple, she just wanted to find a few herbal medicines to relieve her father's swelling.

However, she couldn't even do such a simple thing well, and she even doubted life.

It's ridiculous that she even vented her anger on something irrelevant, what's wrong with her?
Looking at the out-of-the-ordinary vegetation poked by her on the ground, revealing several beard-like things, she was taken aback. Could it be that she found ginseng?

In order to confirm her conjecture, she continued to dig cautiously.

Until the end, after gently pulling the thing out of the soil, she was happy. Is this a blessing in disguise?It really made her find a ginseng.

It's just that she doesn't have the ability to tell the age of this ginseng.Suddenly, she thought of something.

She closed her eyes and said silently in her heart, "Little Jianbao, tell me quickly, is this thing in my hand ginseng?"

"Congratulations, master, you got a thousand-year-old ginseng."

"What?" Xu Jianing opened his eyes and exclaimed, "The thousand-year-old ginseng turned out to be the thousand-year-old ginseng. I'm going to get rich!"

She danced and circled three times on the spot.

No, she has to hurry back and tell her father the good news.

After making up her mind, she quickly walked back along the marks she had made before.

When she found Father Xu, she found that the former chestnut tree had become bare.Chestnuts were scattered on the ground.

The two backpacks they brought earlier were full.

Seeing her come back, Xu's father said to her with a worried face: "Ning'er, it's all because Daddy is too big-hearted and always wants to get more, but he didn't consider that the backpack we brought can't hold so much."

"It's all right now. There are still so many chestnuts that I can't take back, and I don't know if they will be discovered. How about you wait here, and I will send these two baskets back first, and I will pick you up later?"

Xu Jianing nodded, shook his head again, and said to him excitedly: "Father, don't worry, I'll show you something nice."

After speaking, she took out the newly dug ginseng from her bosom.He handed it to Xu's father as if offering a treasure, "Father, what do you think this is? I dug up a thousand-year-old ginseng. Am I amazing?"

Father Xu was taken aback for a moment, "What? Ginseng?"

"My dear, Ning'er, is this really a thousand-year-old ginseng? It's the first time I've seen this thing, let alone the whole village, even among the rich families in the town, few can have this thing. "

It's gone, Xu Jianing's first reaction is that they are going to get rich.

She never expected that she would accidentally dig up a thousand-year-old ginseng.
