Chapter 149 Ginseng Makes Waves

Before the old village doctor could suppress the astonished expression, Chang Xi shook the basket in his hand and said.

"I can't help it. Grandma Cao is too enthusiastic. She gave me wild ginseng. I have to find something of the same price to send back. These are gifts from Cao's family, some fruits."

"Fruit is not worth much. After receiving such a gift, I can feel it in my heart. I always receive expensive gifts, but it is easy for me to sleep poorly."

It's not that she can't live a good life, she should be poor.

Moreover, precious things attract people's attention. Didn't they attract Wang Dahong's covetousness before?

Chang Xi explained helplessly. The old village doctor listened and acted as if I understood you.

"Master, let me give you the mountain fruit to eat?!"

To be honest, Chang Xi felt a little guilty for not coming back in time after going down the mountain.

Just as the old village doctor said no, the house was suddenly opened, and his wife came out, trying to take the bamboo basket away.

She felt that the wild fruits of the Cao family must be sweet if someone carefully cultivated them, and Chang Xi could think of them, so why should they be polite?
She was not polite, and stretched out her hand to put it in her arms.

Unexpectedly, the old village doctor coughed twice and interrupted: "I don't think there are many fruits, you can take them home and eat."

The old village doctor insisted on not wanting the filial piety of his disciples. The village doctor's wife curled her lips helplessly. She just felt that the bamboo basket was unusually heavy!

How can such a heavy bamboo basket contain less fruit?

But her old man spoke, and it was useless for her to say anything.

Chang Xi felt that the bamboo basket that was about to be handed over was stuffed into his bosom again at this time.The person who did this action was not her, but her mistress.

The old village doctor stroked his beard and said, "Okay, hi girl, you can go home. Before you come tomorrow, pick 20 kinds of green leaf herbs."

The number of subjects this time was not spent, but the number was doubled. Chang Xi knew that it was Master who made the learning more difficult.

The other three people were extremely nervous when they heard that the learning requirements were announced.

Hearing the same request as Chang Xi, he sighed neatly: "Hey!"

Just a hundred meters away from the village doctor's house, Chang Xi met many people. As soon as they met Chang Xi, they asked in trembling voices: "Chang Xi girl heard that you dug up ginseng, is it true?"

Chang Xi's heart skipped a beat, and he felt uncomfortable being stared at by several pairs of eager eyes.

Can the news that she dug up ginseng be covered up?

It stands to reason that the Cao family would not say anything casually, the only possibility is the dog's egg!
Chang Xi looked back angrily, and looked in the direction of the village doctor.

At this time Goudan just came out, and Chang Xi stared at him fiercely, his face turned into a liver color, in order to avoid the sharp eyes, he chose to run away.

Seeing that he was afraid of absconding, Chang Xi was sure that it must be that brat who caused unnecessary trouble for him with his big mouth like Goudan.

At the same time, there were people around who were asking questions with great interest.

"Hi girl, which mountain did you find the ginseng on, tell us! It's been years since we've dug up ginseng, and we want to pay homage to the mountain god grandfather."

When it came to worshiping the mountain god, there was a hint of greed in his eyes.

Chang Xi didn't say anything yet, and more and more people came running over.No need to think about it, they all came for ginseng.

Among this group of people, there is also Fan Dayou who recently had a son.

Fan Dayou was originally taking a bath by the river to cool off, but he heard someone yelled that someone had dug up ginseng, and everyone followed suit.

When he came, he found out that Chang Xi was the one who dug up the ginseng.

Thinking of his family's recent situation, 20 taels of silver, spent five taels of ginseng silk and some soup, and his son's life was barely hanging.

Seeing his son's sickness all the time, Fan Dayou was anxious and helpless, always feeling that his son was the root cause of his illness brought from the mother's womb.

Sometimes I can't help but blame his daughter-in-law Fan Lishi. If it weren't for her dystocia, would his son have suffered so much?
But the complaints belong to the complaints, and he didn't complain anymore.

That is, every time I spend money to buy ginseng whiskers, my heart is bleeding.

Seeing that Chang Xi had dug up the ginseng he had always dreamed of today, the sour water in his heart welled up one by one.

Although Peng Zhang came late, he squeezed into the front row from the outside with his own strength, and asked with great interest: "Chang Xi, how is the quality of the ginseng you dug up? Can you open our eyes?"

The hearts of the people around have already been filled with sour water, and it is unknown who took up the conversation in a strange way.

"Girl Changxi, show it to us. What if it's not ginseng? You're still young and sometimes you can't tell the authenticity from the fake. Let us identify it for you."

Fan Dayou has always been a person who cares about face. He doesn't know where he got the courage to speak up in front of many people.

"Girl Changxi, my family is in a difficult situation. Everyone in the village knows about it. Can you lend me the ginseng you dug for my family first?"

"I don't borrow too much. I will borrow as much as you think is suitable! When my family harvests in autumn, I will buy it and return it to you."

Fan Dayou's words made everyone around him look at him.

The last time he promised to pay on credit first, and the person who would pay it back after the autumn harvest was Jiang Wenpo. In the end, there was a quarrel between the two families. Now it's the same excuse? ? ?

Everyone wanted to know whether Chang Xi would borrow or not, so they looked at Chang Xi again.

"I'm sorry, uncles and aunts, for letting everyone go for nothing."

"It's not that I don't want to take out the ginseng, but that I dug it up and gave it to the Cao family! If you want to see it, you can knock on the door of the Cao family!"

It's okay to knock on the door of Yuanwai Cao, who would do something annoying?
Offending the big landlords in Taihang Village will do them no good.

Some people were full of regrets, while others didn't believe it. Chang Xi was scolded almost by Fan Dayou.

"Give away ginseng? Don't you know how expensive ginseng is as a medical student?"

"Are you willing to give it away? Hi girl, don't try to lie to us."

Chang Xi knew that some people would not believe it, so she pointed to the bamboo basket in her hand.

"The Cao family took it out and gave me some wild fruits as a thank you. You see, this bamboo basket is so delicate and specially dyed. Is it for us ordinary people?"

Only then did everyone take a serious look at the bamboo basket. Sure enough, the weaving technique was exquisite. One side of the bamboo basket was woven, forming the word Cao.

Now, no one dares to doubt anymore!
All kinds of discussions now turned into sighs, drifting away with the wind.

The most embarrassing one was Fan Dayou, he was too anxious just now.

Why was his mouth so fast just now?I wanted to borrow ginseng, but I got nothing.He really wanted to give himself a mouthful!

Things that others don't care much about, are very serious in Fan Dayou's eyes, as if he feels that he has been humiliated by Chang Xi.

He asked unhappily: "Since you gave it away, why didn't you say it earlier? We still want us to chase you and ask, is it on purpose?"

Chang Xi twitched the corner of her mouth in aggrieved way: "Everyone surround me and talk alone, you must give me a chance to speak!"

Didn't this mean there was a little misunderstanding because I didn't have a chance to speak?
Everyone expressed their understanding, and indeed they were too excited.

Now there are more than a dozen people surrounding Chang Xi, everyone said at a glance, there is really no opportunity for Chang Xi to intervene to explain.

Fan Dayou was still dissatisfied with this explanation, as if he wanted to save face for himself, he shook his face inexplicably.

"Hmph, isn't it just digging ginseng?"

"Since we have ginseng in our mountains, maybe we can dig it ourselves."

After speaking, he put his hands behind his back and left as if running away in despair.
