Chapter 148 Like a Little White Rabbit
It's not easy for him to decide for the master's family, whether to accept or not.
The housekeeper made a decisive decision: "Changxi girl, the gift you gave is too expensive, you should tell my old lady face to face."
Chang Xi was a little helpless, she just wanted to come and leave silently, but now she had to go in.
Say the same thing to Grandma Cao, Mrs. Cao, who was serving her mother-in-law to drink bird's nest porridge, had a flash of surprise in her eyes.
A little girl who is only ten years old knows how to be a human being.
Cao Jingxiu, who came to visit grandma next to him, didn't look very happy, but fell into deep thought.
He solemnly whispered small things to his grandma. Chang Xi was afraid that they would not accept him, so he wrote the draft in his heart, and he couldn't hear what they were whispering at all.
Chang Xi has already thought about it, she is not a person who likes to pretend to be stupid, and she will not pretend to be stupid when she gets an advantage.Granny Cao must accept it.
Just when Chang Xi was fully prepared, Mrs. Cao suddenly showed her a gentle smile.
"It's hard for you and your mother to think about us. Your mother is right. Neighborhood relations can last long only when there is reciprocity."
"Changxi girl's wish, my wife accepts it, butler, go and prepare some return gifts for Xi girl to take home."
"Yes!" Steward Cao received the Eldest Young Master's wink, and immediately understood it in his heart, and walked out with a breeze.
"I don't. Don't go." Chang Xi wanted to say that she didn't come here to return the gift, how could she make it clear that she came and went.
It will only be sent more and more, and it will be nothing.
Chang Xi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Cao Jingxiu in a timely manner.
"Don't be nervous, my orchard has recently harvested a batch of bayberry fruit and a batch of scallop fruit, it's time to eat."
"Don't be fooled, take some back and try something new. If you can't come here now, I'll give it to you tomorrow, just take it together."
When Chang Xi heard that it was a fruit to quench her thirst, she didn't think too much about it, but asked curiously: "What is a succulent fruit and how do you eat it?"
The Cao family smiled without surprise, and no one looked at Chang Xi as they would look at an ignorant villager, Mrs. Cao said in a good mood.
"We bought it from other places and planted it in a small quantity. The way to eat it is to remove the skin and keep the seeds, wrap the seeds in gauze and keep kneading them with water. The juice obtained is washed with more water and left to solidify naturally."
"There are no other condiments, just add a little sugar water on the surface, and the taste will be cool and smooth. It is our family's favorite food to relieve heat."
"You take it home and ask your mother to make it for you to taste."
Wow! ! !
After listening to the introduction, Chang Xi let out a groundhog scream in his heart.
Terrible!Not surprisingly, what she got was ice powder fruit.
Thinking of studying in the past, in the summer, the school cafeteria would sell a large bowl of cheap rose ice powder, with nuts and preserved fruits on the top, and ice cubes to relieve the heat.
Miss this taste so much!
Traveling to ancient times, she has never met a watermelon. She can relieve the heat by wearing less clothes, but she still dare not expose her arms and ankles.
Thinking that the two fruits are something to satisfy cravings, Chang Xi's eyes lit up, blinking her watery pupils, and she replied sticky.
"Okay, okay, it's hard to be kind, but I'll take it back. Thank you Grandma Cao and Uncle Cao!"
Chang Xi thanked her again, seeing Cao Jingxiu staring at her, she muttered embarrassedly: "Thank you Mr. Cao too."
Mrs. Cao reacted very quickly and let out a gasp: "Why do you call us so kind, but call my Jingxiu stiff instead? You are almost a few years old, so don't be too unfamiliar."
An old voice echoed: "That's right, girl Xi, stop yelling at each other from now on."
"Our two families are already so familiar, why not call him brother now."
Ok?
Compared to calling senior brother, why does Chang Xi feel that calling Brother Cao is even more difficult for her to say?
Chang Xi didn't expect that he escaped being called senior brother, but he didn't escape calling brother.
Cao Jingxiu looked at Chang Xi jokingly, noticing the change in the little girl's slightly embarrassed expression.
Fortunately, Steward Cao came in with a bamboo basket at this time, ready to say everything, Chang Xi hurriedly carried the bamboo basket to salute and leave, and left as if fleeing, leaving only a panicked back.
Mrs. Cao saw through, she pursed her lips and smiled lowly: "Little girl is thin-skinned, does she look like a little white rabbit when she slips away?"
"Little White Rabbit?" The old lady, who was in a trance, couldn't help but roll her eyes with a smile when she thought of the soft, cute and pink bunny.
When Cao Jingxiu heard the little white rabbit, he really looked out again, as if he wanted to make a serious comparison, is that the case?
But at this moment, where is Chang Xi?
Seeing Steward Cao bring up the book bag, Cao Jingxiu opened it and touched it lovingly.
Chang Xi came out as if fleeing, walked all the way, and arrived at the master's house after a while. At this time, her old village doctor was dispensing medicine, and the three children stood in a circle to watch.
"Master, the apprentice is back!"
She stood upright, and took the initiative to explain her whereabouts: "I went to Cao's house just now."
The old village doctor was not angry, but when he heard her voice, he immediately smiled.
"You're back? Hi girl, have you dug up ginseng?"
"Yes, Master." When Chang Xi answered, he took an extra look at Goudan.
Goudan was stared at, and he couldn't help shaking his shoulders, thinking to himself, where does the chill come from in such a hot day?
At this time, Chang Xi inevitably felt dissatisfied with Goudan. His behavior of snatching ginseng on the mountain just now had already angered him.
Now she asked back with a cold face: "God, what medicinal material did I dig up, did you tell me? What are you preaching everywhere?"
I always feel an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling. What does it have to do with him to dig up ginseng?
Under Chang Xi's stern gaze, Goudan realized that what he did was not pleasing.
When the old village doctor first heard the news, he fell into ecstasy for a while.
He has climbed a lot of mountains in Taihang Village since he was a child!
Eight years ago, he met a plant on the edge of an extremely dangerous ravine, and in exchange for collecting it, he was injured all over his body.
After the villagers heard about it, they went up the mountain in droves to dig ginseng, and they went there specifically for ginseng. Adding up the front and rear, they actually dug up five ginseng roots in this mountain range.
Eight years have passed, and no one has seen ginseng again. He thought that the ginseng in the mountains had been harvested and would not grow any more.
Unexpectedly, Chang Xi could still meet Ginseng, which is good news.
Now Chang Xi asked the question, but the village doctor was surprised.
After staring at Goudan, unable to bear the oppressive feeling, Goudan finally took the initiative to say: "I was wrong."
The old village doctor nodded in satisfaction, but couldn't hide his excitement and asked: "Xi girl, you dug up ginseng, what do you plan to do with it?"
"If you want to sell it, how about considering selling it as a teacher?"
"The price for a teacher is definitely not as high as that of the pharmacies in the town, but precious medicinal materials such as ginseng are hard to come by. I'm just trying to say that I don't want to force you."
Chang Xi listened carefully to Master's words, and then replied with regret: "Master, I gave the ginseng to Grandma Cao."
"This..." The old village doctor couldn't believe it, ginseng!She is so willing!
The wife of the village doctor was in her room, listening to the conversation outside with her ears pricked up. When she heard that the ginseng was easily given away, her heart felt like a knife and she was so painful that she couldn't breathe.
She said in a low voice: "Children nowadays really don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, and ginseng can be sold for a lot of money. How can I give it away?"
