Chapter 90 Blood Ginseng

Qing Niang sat in the private room, peeling the shrimp shells for Brother Yang, sucking the taste from her fingers, her heart was full of happiness.The most important thing between husband and wife is to let each other know each other. If she hadn't followed Heliancheng's wishes, how could Heliancheng think from her point of view, and finally compromised and followed her wishes?
Compared with complaining and complaining at the beginning, Qingniang now feels very satisfied. The family and Helele are nothing more than the best and most satisfactory ending.But before that, she had to seize the opportunity and find an appropriate opportunity to have a showdown with He Liancheng.Concealment is the root of all quarrels!

After the family finished their dinner, Xiao Er graciously brought over a fruit plate and three cups of herbal tea.Qing Niang was afraid that Brother Yang would get upset if he drank too much, so she didn't give him much crayfish, and only let him drink two sips of herbal tea, so she coaxed him to take a nap.

He Liancheng was deeply poisoned by the crayfish, and the pain of the sausage mouth is still fresh in his memory. After he couldn't resist the temptation of the spicy crayfish, he drank two large cups of herbal tea before going to take a nap contentedly.Qing Niang is also used to taking a nap, but in order to go to see Xiao San'er, she forced the "Nap Bug" back, and she promised Yuniang to go and see for her!
When Qingniang went to look for Boss Xu, Boss Xu went back to his house to reunite with the family.Qing Niang asked Xiao San'er in the accountant, and the clerk invited Xiao San'er out for her.The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Xiao San'er was busy dealing with the accounts of other shops, and hurried back.The young lady was bored and decided to go back to her room to sleep.This sleep, sleep until the evening!

Brother Yang ate spicy food at noon, and then drank cold food, what Qingniang was worried about happened, the little guy complained of a stomachache, and ran to the latrine twice.Qing Niang was a little worried, seeing him in a state of distress, she felt distressed, and wanted to take him home directly, but he was also thinking about the Lantern Festival, so she insisted on not agreeing.

He Liancheng Fu forehead, one head and two big, discussed with Qing Niang, hired a carriage and waited at the gate of the city, after they finished shopping around the lanterns, and left the city before the closed gate, it was better to go home overnight.For dinner, the family chose lean meat and vegetable leaf porridge, which is light and light!
As the sky darkened, all the lanterns on both sides of the street were lit up, followed by people's cheers.Lantern festivals don’t happen every year. The yamen must come forward, and rich people pay for it. Together, they invite masters who specialize in making lanterns to make lanterns. Only during the Mid-Autumn Festival of that year can there be lanterns.Therefore, no matter adults or children, they still yearn for the Lantern Festival.

There were many more people at night than during the day. The children each carried a lantern and ran and played under the lantern, watching Brother Yang's eyes brighten every time.The lanterns all over the sky emit a unique light in the dark night, reflecting on the joyful faces of the people, sprinkled the light of happiness all over the place.

Looking at the shoulder-to-shoulder crowd, Qingniang thought she had caught up with the peak tourist season, when adults look at heads and children look at buttocks.After wiping off his sweat, he was about to pick up Brother Yang, but He Liancheng had already clamped Brother Yang around his neck to ride a big horse.This height, this vision, can see farther than them!

This is the first time for Brother Yang to ride a big horse, and at the lively lantern festival, the little guy danced happily, completely immersed in joy.He held the lamp in his left hand, and when he stretched out his right hand, he could touch all kinds of lanterns above his head. His heart was bubbling with beauty, and his little hand brushed the tassels of the octagonal palace lantern, giggling.

He Liancheng supported Brother Yang with one hand, and led Qingniang forward with the other.It is said that the main exhibition point of the Lantern Festival tonight is on Xiaoxi Street. In addition to the exquisite and novel lanterns, there is also a competition.The winner will get a blood ginseng plant sponsored by the Ouyang family, the richest man in the city.This time, the Ouyang family paid a lot of money!
Ouyang's family is far better than Xie's and Guo's. Their original family is the House of Ministers of the Household Department in the capital city. Apart from relying on their own family for their reputation, they now live in Ouyang Xun and their appointed successor Ouyang Jin. They have already achieved business. Towns and cities other than Kyoto are veritable local tyrants!
Qing Niang is not interested in the family history of Ouyang's family at all, but she is quite curious about the blood ginseng.Blood ginseng is red like blood, and its medicinal value is several times higher than that of ordinary ginseng, so Ouyang's family is willing to do so.If she gets this blood ginseng, kills a chicken and stews it for a day, the nutrition...she doesn't even dare to think about it!

The blood ginseng that Ouyang's family has been reluctant to eat is so missed by Qingniang, and she wants to take it back to stew the hen. I don't know if Ouyang Xun and his son will spit out a mouthful of old blood when they hear it.

What a waste of money!
"Liancheng, shall we join in the fun?"

He Liancheng glanced at Qing Niang suspiciously, felt that her words were a bit inappropriate, and said casually: "Aren't you just joining in the fun?"

This lively is not that lively!
Qing Niang was at a loss for words, but her heart was even more frantic like a cat scratching her heart. She believed that besides serving as a reward for the winner, the blood ginseng must also hide a secret.Otherwise, what is the intention of the Ouyang family to give away the treasure of their town house to others?

The closer she got to Xiaoxi Street, the more curious and nervous Qing Niang became.On the contrary, He Liancheng didn't care about competitions or blood ginseng at all. His purpose was to finish watching the lantern show, and the family of three hurried home in a carriage.He didn't know anything about the twists and turns in Qingniang's heart!
From a distance, Qing Niang saw the red ring, hung with lanterns, from the heads of thousands of people.The style and workmanship of those lanterns, the lanterns above the head are not enough to see at all, what is inferior can be distinguished at a glance.

On the left side of the arena is a shelf covered with rows of red lanterns, but there are no lights inside.On the right side of the arena, there is a long table with pens, ink, paper and inkstones on it, and four chairs behind it.And in the very center of the arena, on the top of a high shelf, a beautiful brocade box was tied with red silk, hanging in the air.Qingniang believed that that was tonight's reward - blood ginseng without a doubt!

Bang!

Suddenly, a loud gong sound was deafening. Everyone including Qing Niang stretched their necks and looked forward. They saw a middle-aged man in gray clothes beating the gong on the ring. Behind the ring, four people went up one by one. After entering the arena, he sat on the corresponding chair, and swept across the faces of everyone in the audience with a smile on his face.

Qing Niang only recognized two of them, Mr. Gou, the master of Xin County, sitting on the far left, and the old acquaintance, Boss Xu, on the far right.Among the two people in the middle, one has a bald head, and the other has gray hair. Qing Niang thought about it, he doesn't know these two people!

"Everyone, be quiet. Tonight's competition is only about who has the most guesses, not who has the most knowledge. Anyone who wants to come up and try can rush to sign up." The middle-aged man in gray let go of his voice and announced loudly. The young lady looked at the exquisite brocade box and was eager to try it, Qingniang tried to break free from He Liancheng's hand and go on stage to compete, but suddenly heard the man in gray, it was like a basin of cold water poured on her, cooling her head to the soles of her feet!
