Chapter 1311 Rejection
“Our dumplings are so good that they stabbed the ginseng nest in one go!”
Jiang Yilin said this because he followed Tuanzi's line of sight and looked more than two feet away. There were actually two wild ginseng plants with red berries.
Tuanzi: “Brother, let’s dig them out carefully and take them home.”
Mingrui: "Okay."
With more people and greater strength, everyone dug carefully. However, since the three dumplings and Xi Jingyu were too small, the older ones didn't let the four little ones do it.
But the four of them were watching with extremely serious expressions.
It took about half an hour for Mingrui and Jiang Yilin to finally dig out five wild ginseng roots.
“Brother, these two plants are so big!”
This is the sound of glutinous rice balls. He looked at the two wild ginseng sticks that were almost as thick as his wrists, his eyes as bright as if they were studded with bright stars.
“Fifth brother, these three plants are so big!”
Pointing to three other wild ginseng plants, Guoguo blinked his **** grape-like eyes and said with a sweet voice, "It's as thick as the carrot I ate raw yesterday. According to the description in my great-grandfather's medical book, these three wild ginseng plants are It must be a hundred or two hundred years old.”
“So, the other two will go up in three hundred years?”
Minghan suddenly said something.
In fact, he often went to his great-grandfather’s study to read, but he was not very interested in medical books, especially those ancient books. Now, compared with his younger brothers and sisters, to be honest, he, the older brother, looked like a bumpkin.
—I don’t know wild ginseng, and I can’t tell the year. It’s really useless.
“Should we continue to transfer, or should we go back down the mountain?”
Mingrui and Jiang Yilin gently put five wild ginseng roots into their backpacks, and then Mingrui asked about the three dumplings.
Guo Guo first expressed his stance: "Brother, let's fight two more rabbits!"
The implication is that I don’t want to go down the mountain now.
"good."
Mingrui responded.
Xi Jingyu came up to Minghan and said, "Brother, I envy you so much that you have a lucky little brother!"
“You don’t think you dislike Xiaoyu, do you?”
Speaking, Minghan deliberately glanced at the child Xi Chenyu.
Xi Jingyu immediately shook his head like a rattle: "How dare I?! My little brother is the treasure of our family. If I dare to dislike him, I will be beaten with a cane by my grandpa!"
Hearing this, Minghan glanced at the other party and said two words: "You deserve it."
“Brother, are you going to capsize the boat of our friendship like this?”
There is no doubt that Xi Jingyu learned this from Ming Han.
“You and I are just plastic brothers, understand?”
Give Xi Jingyu a roll of his eyes, Minghan looked disgusted.
Well, he was just joking with his friends.
Xi Jingyu naturally knew that, but he played along with Minghan, so he gave him a blank look in return: "Thank you for not saying that we are plastic sisters, otherwise, I wouldn't have followed you and made a mistake in gender recognition?!"
…”
Minghan was startled at first, then said "yue"!
"you…"
Xi Jingyu stared.
"What's wrong with me?"
Minghan looked innocent.
“Forget it, my lord has a lot, so I’m not as knowledgeable as you!”
Hum, anyway, he just said that, and it wasn't really a gender misunderstanding. As for someone directly vomiting, he just pretended not to see it.
The group of people walked in the forest for another five or six minutes. Suddenly Guoguo made a voice of surprise: "Brother, come and see, this Ganoderma tree is so big!"
Before the elders from Mingrui could react, they heard Tang Yuan’s cheerful voice: “Wow! I also discovered the giant Ganoderma lucidum!”
At this time, Tuanzi threw two gravels, one after another, and knocked out two hares.
Children Xi Chenyu helped to pick up the hare. Unexpectedly, when he was carrying the hare back along the same route, he tripped over something.
Xi Jingyu was so frightened that he ran forward: "Xi Chenyu, are you okay?"
Shaking his head, the child Xi Chenyu picked up the thing that tripped him, and heard the dumpling’s milky voice saying, “It’s Polygonum multiflorum!”
That's right, Tuanzi recognized at a glance that the human-shaped, wood-like object Chen Chenyu held in his hand was the Polygonum multiflorum he saw in the ancient medical book at his great-grandfather's house.
“Polygonum multiflorum?”
Xi Chenyu's eyes widened and he looked straight at Tuanzi.
As if he understood what he was thinking, the milky sound of the dumpling explained the efficacy and function of Polygonum multiflorum, as well as the growth habits and appearance characteristics of Polygonum multiflorum.
Xi Jingyu: "What happened today? First, Tuanzi poked the wild ginseng's nest, and then Guoguo and Tangyuan discovered such a big Ganoderma lucidum. Now our Xi Chenyu also found a treasure. Why did I just Not so lucky?"
As he said that, Xi Jingyu deliberately looked sad.
“It tripped me up.”
He didn’t discover it by himself, it was the Polygonum multiflorum in his hand that tripped him and was picked up by him.
“I know, you are so lucky. You tripped over a Polygonum multiflorum root and fell to the ground. It seems that you have been playing with Tuanzi and the others for a long time, and you have gained a lot of luck from them.”
Xi Jingyu said, but Minghan glared at him: "Don't talk nonsense, if you are lucky or not, that's because Xiaoyu is lucky."
After digging up treasures, picking treasures, and picking up treasures again, and hunting several wild animals, Mingrui and Jiang Yilin decided to go down the mountain, and the others, big and small, had no objections.
Since then, several little guys were picked up by the bodyguards and followed behind Mingrui and the elders. Soon they walked out of the forest and walked down the mountain along the stone stairs.
…
Jiang Li has been busy with matters in the factory and the ecological recycling park recently. He happened to be busy with things at noon today, so he took the time to go to Jiang Hongfa's villa to chat with the cheap grandfather and Mr. Xi. At this moment, he saw When Mingrui's group of children came into the living room from the backyard with smiles on their faces, they couldn't help but ask: "Did you find a treasure on the mountain?"
Her eyes fell on Mingrui.
“Mom, you were right, but it’s not all of us who picked up the treasure, it’s Tuanzi, Tangyuan, Guoguo and Xiaoyu.”
A faint smile appeared between Mingrui's brows and eyes, and then he put the backpack on the ground. He said: "Tuanzi dug a wild ginseng nest, Tangyuan and Guoguo each found a Ganoderma lucidum, and Xiao Yu picked up a human-shaped Polygonum multiflorum." ”
Before Mingrui could take out the wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, Xi Jingyu showed the Polygonum multiflorum that Xi Chenyu picked up to Jiang Li and others.
“This year is at least fifty or sixty years old.”
Jiang Li looked at the Polygonum multiflorum that Xi Jingyu handed over. She said to Jiang Hongfa and Mr. Xi that after hearing her words, Jiang Hongfa and the three of them looked surprised. Jiang Li said again: "I read it from medical books." Yes, we can roughly estimate the year.”
“Mom, great-grandpa…”
Mingrui called Jiang Li and the others, and then he placed the wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum he took out one by one on the coffee table. In an instant, everyone including Jiang Li opened their eyes wide and were stunned.
After a while, Jiang Hongfa said: "Of these five wild ginseng plants, the youngest one is at least two hundred years old, and the oldest one is probably nearly five hundred years old. They are so precious!"
They are all good things for life. In a critical moment, just cut a thin slice and it is possible to save a life!
“This needs to be concocted in order to be properly preserved.”
Jiang Li is not short of money, so she will not sell wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. However, although she has some basic knowledge about preparing medicinal materials, she has not done it in detail. In order to avoid wasting good things, she needs to find someone special. Processing.
“Old Xi, with your connections, you should know some capable people in the provincial capital here who are good at processing medicinal materials. How about I leave this job to you?”
Jiang Hongfa looked at Mr. Xi. When Jiang Li heard this, without waiting for Mr. Xi to say anything, she said with a smile: "Grandpa Xi, when the concoction is ready, I will help the children to make the decision and give you one."
Looking at the three dumplings: "Do you have any opinions?"
The three dumplings shook their heads in unison.
"I do know an old man here. He can be regarded as a master of traditional Chinese medicine. His skills in preparing medicinal materials are excellent. I will contact you on the phone soon, but I can't ask for this wild ginseng in vain. After all, it is too precious. If I take one for nothing, my conscience will be uneasy. Let me buy one and buy another Ganoderma lucidum at the same time. Do you think that’s OK?”
Mr. Xi turned his attention to Jiang Li and Jiang Hongfa.
“Li Li, just make up your own mind.”
Jiang Hongfa handed over the decision-making power to Jiang Li.
After all, the thing was discovered by Tuanzi Sanjiao. Although he is the great-grandfather of the children and the eldest elder in the family, the children must be close to their mother, so it is most appropriate for their mother to make the decision.
"Fine."
Jiang Li knew that the things in front of him were too precious, and with Mr. Xi's temperament, since he could say that, he would never ask for it in vain. He also knew why Mr. Xi bought wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. This was obviously to replenish his wife's health. .
Of course, after buying the things, Mr. Xi can nourish himself. After all, when people get old, they will inevitably develop some age-related diseases.
What's more, Mr. Xi walked through a hail of bullets, so he might have hidden wounds in his body!
A few minutes later.
Mr. Xi contacted his old friend in the provincial capital here and started talking about the matter. The other party agreed without thinking and asked Mr. Xi to arrange for someone to bring things over at any time. The two of them chatted again. Two sentences and hang up the phone.
Jiang Li: “How about I go there?”
Jiang Hongfa: "Are you done?"
“I’m actually not busy with anything. There are dedicated people in charge here. I just went to the factory and the ecological recycling park to look around.”
Jiang Li said with a smile. After listening to her words, Jiang Hongfa said: "Don't make fun of your own health, otherwise, what will happen to me and your father?"
“Don’t worry, I won’t be a workaholic, not to mention the children are still young. I want to watch them grow up, and provide for you and my father in old age, and accompany you to live your whole life!”
Jiang Li had a bright smile on his face, and his whole state was positive no matter how he looked at it.
Jiang Hongfa saw this, but still confirmed: "Don't you plan to take a good rest?"
"Need not."
Jiang Li shook his head.
Jiang Hongfa: "Then you go, but you can't go alone." "Okay."
Jiang Li responded.
After lunch, Jiang Li set off for the provincial capital, driven by Jiang Hongfa's driver and accompanied by a bodyguard.
What I want to say is that Mr. Xi did not let Jiang Li process the wild ginseng he bought. Instead, he cut off half of it and kept it with the Ganoderma lucidum for Mrs. Xi's health care.
Well, he himself needs to make up for himself, so he can live an extra two years.
After using two good things, wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, Mr. Xi's health has obviously improved.
Even Mrs. Xi’s physical condition has improved greatly.
Not only can he walk independently, but he can also walk for ten minutes at a time. Unlike before, he could walk, but he needed help. His walking was not only slow, but he could only walk for five or six minutes at most. Therefore, he had to either sit in a wheelchair or lie down every day. on the bed.
Not to mention that when winter comes, I can’t get out of bed at all.
In short, Mrs. Xi feels that Aoli Village is her blessed place. After coming here to get close to nature, her sleep has improved and her ailing body has gradually improved. To be honest, it would be difficult for her to live in Auli Village for a long time. Is willing.
But Mrs. Xi knew that this was impossible. On the one hand, her home was in Beicheng, and on the other hand, her children and grandchildren were also in Beicheng. Over the years, the whole family had been worrying about her health.
Now my health is gradually improving, and being able to be reunited with my family is better than anything else.
“Let’s go back later, your body will only be better than now!”
“I hope so too, so that I don’t have to cause any more trouble to the children.”
"What are you talking about?! If they dare to say you are trouble, I will kick them out of the house!"
The weather today is cloudy, there is no sun in the sky, and it is mid-afternoon. Mr. Xi and his wife are lying on the deck chairs in the backyard of the villa, blowing the cool wind and smelling the elegant fragrance of flowers. They have no words. Chatting.
As for Jiang Hongfa, he went to Grandpa Jiang to talk about home affairs.
The elders Mingrui and others are reading, and Tuanzi and Xi Chenyu are studying with private teachers.
Everyone’s life is warm and peaceful, and the years are quiet.
“Are you such a father? Besides, don’t you know what our children are like?”
Old Mrs. Xi looked at Mr. Xi angrily, and said, "I feel that my body is a drag, which makes you and the children worry about me every day, for fear that something might happen to me. Don't you know that I have done this more than once?" I want to end my life, but I can’t bear to leave you..."
Hand holding Old Mrs. Xi’s hand next to his, Mr. Xi said, “Thankfully you didn’t do anything stupid, otherwise, I would most likely have followed you, old man.”
They are an old couple and have gone through ups and downs. If the old wife ends her life in a decisive way due to her physical condition, he will definitely not be able to bear such a blow.
“Yeah, thank you for not taking that step, otherwise, how would I know that my health would get better one day.”
Mrs. Xi smiled and said, "All the children taught by Li Li are good."
In response to Mrs. Xi's sudden change of topic, Mr. Xi did not show any abnormality. He looked gentle and said with a smile: "Yes, that girl is very good at teaching children and is also a good childbearer. All the children in the family are full of aura. They will definitely be pillars of the country in the future.”
Old Mrs. Xi: "If it weren't for Li Li and Guobang's seniority, I think Jing Yu and Weiwei would be a perfect match!"
“If the two children can really see eye to eye, seniority won’t be a problem.”
When Mr. Xi said this, he paused and continued: "That kid Xiaoyu likes Guoguo very much."
…”
Mrs. Xi was startled for a moment. She came back to her senses and asked, "You don't want to pick up the baby and kiss her, do you?"
“I would like to, but Brother Jiang refuses to give up. However, I am optimistic about our Xiaoyu. Maybe in ten or twenty years, Xiaoyu will really be able to marry Guoguo into our family.”
Mr. Xi said this, with a smile on his face like a chrysanthemum in full bloom.
“It would be great to have such a day.”
Mrs. Xi was also smiling.
“By the way, is Li Li’s child really the child of Xiao Feng’s second wife?”
Mrs. Xi looked at Mr. Xi and said, "I heard what Guobang's wife said. At that time, she mentioned something, and my eyelids were so sleepy that I didn't listen carefully to what she said."
"Well, that's indeed what happened. The person Xiao Feng married later was the daughter of the housekeeper in Brother Jiang's house. Boya was young at that time, and maybe she was in love for the first time. She and the housekeeper's daughter looked at each other. Unexpectedly, Mr. Jiang Brother firmly opposed it, and as a result, the two young men directly chose to elope. By the time the people sent by Brother Jiang found Boya, nearly a year had passed. Boya was forcibly brought back to Beicheng, and soon he was forcibly taken out of the country by Brother Jiang... "
Mr. Xi briefly told Mrs. Xi what he heard from Jiang Hongfa about the relationship between Jiang Boya and Fang Su. At the end, he sighed: "Although what Mr. Jiang did at the beginning was a bit cruel, but in his opinion From a standpoint, I can understand it, but the one in Xiao Feng's family did something a little unreasonable.
Since she chose to give birth to a child, even if she didn't want to raise it or was unable to raise it, she could give the child away or leave it in a crowded place, which would still give the child a way to survive. Funny, she was so cruel that she would just The born child was thrown in the trash can of the health center. To be honest, I didn't find it strange at all that Li Li didn't recognize the little Feng family member. "
“She is a cruel woman!”
Old Mrs. Xi said: "Abandoning her daughter and driving her son out of the house at the same time is not something a mother can do at all."
“Indeed it is.”
Mr. Xi echoed: "Her intestines are probably green now."
“She deserves it.”
After Mrs. Xi learned about what Fang Su did to Jiang Li and Feng Yi, she didn't have a good impression of Fang Su. She said, "The adoptive parents of Li Li's child are really nice and sincere. I can see that they It’s because Lili is in pain as they gave birth to a child.”
"Um."
Mr. Xi nodded.
…
“You can keep it yourself, your father and I don’t need it.”
Cai Xiufang looked at the wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum placed in front of her by Jiang Li. She had no intention of asking for them at all. She closed the box and said, "When your father and I really need it in the future, why don't you take it out for us?" ?”
"How can this be?!"
Jiang Li didn't even think about it and said bluntly: "As long as it is mine, in my heart, it belongs to my parents."
“What are you talking about?”
Angry at Jiang Li, Cai Xiufang said: "Mom and your father know these two things are precious, but Tuanzi and the others found them in the mountains, and you should hold them. If you give them to me and your father, your elder brother and the others will know about them later." , Might cause trouble."
Captain Jiang said: "Your mother is right, you can keep the things yourself."
“But this wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum are given to you by me. I don’t care whether you use them yourself or give them to others.”
Jiang Li pushed the box on the table towards Cai Xiufang and Captain Jiang.
“Do you want to see your eldest brother and the others have a conflict over these two things?”
Cai Xiufang said: "My dear brothers have settled the score. Your father and I have these two good things. If any of your elder brothers find out one day, and they ask for them from me and your father, you say we will give them to you." Or not? If you give it, what will your other brothers do if they know it? But if the thing is in your hand, it belongs to you. Even if your eldest brother knows that you have it, they can't reach out to you. What do you mean? Understand?"
After being silent for a while, Jiang Li nodded: "I understand, then let me keep it for you two elders. I will take it out when you need it later."
For the sake of family harmony, she can keep it as long as she can. In short, she will give it out without hesitation whenever her family members need it.
“I’m going to go for a walk in the fields.”
Captain Jiang said, stood up and walked out of the room.
“Why don’t you go back to your room and lie down for a while?”
Cai Xiufang asked Jiang Li.
"I am not sleepy."
He said this, but Jiang Li did not continue to sit. She stood up and said, "I'm going to sit with my grandma for a while."
“Go.”
Cai Xiufang waved her hands and then said: "I will take the things back to your room and put them away. Remember to put them away yourself when you get back."
"oh."
Jiang Li responded, and in a blink of an eye, he was outside the door.
…
“Where are Li Bao going?”
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, Jiang Li met Cui Daxiao. Upon hearing this, she responded with a smile: "Go to my uncle's house to see my grandparents."
“Well, let’s go, my aunt is talking to your aunt about something, let’s go together.”
Cui Daxiao is very enthusiastic. Her family is about to have two workers, one is her youngest son and the other is her youngest daughter-in-law. The couple recently went to Jiang Li's factory to recruit workers, and all of them were accepted. This is a big deal for her family. Great news.
She has heard that the wages offered by the factory are higher than those of workers in the county factories, and these are all benefits brought to her family by the girl next to her.
well! It's a pity that such a good girl is not from her family.
Otherwise, she, Cui Erhua, is the mother of the factory director. With such an identity, how majestic she would be when she walks in front of others!
Jiang Li naturally didn't know about Cui Daxiao's psychological activities, but if she knew, she would just laugh it off and not have any other thoughts.
“By the way, Li Bao, don’t you know, that girl Chunxia is back!”
When Meng Buding heard what Cui Daxiao said, Jiang Li was startled, and then asked: "How did Auntie know?"
“I saw it with my own eyes.”
Cui Daxiao lowered his voice and said: "You must have just entered her house now. Didn't you see that girl looks so charming? She greets men when she sees her, which is not shameful at all. However, she came back to mention Carrying big and small bags and two big boxes, I guess I’ve made a lot of money outside in the past few years.”
Jiang Li smiled and did not respond.
Cui Daxiao just talked about herself and didn't care at all whether Jiang Li answered her words. She only heard her say again: "Li Bao, how much do you think that girl Chunxia can earn outside in the past few years?"
“I don’t know that.”
Seeing Cui Daxiao's eyes falling on him, Jiang Li smiled slightly: "But as my aunt said, who should earn a lot?"
“Yes, that girl Chunxia is dressed luxuriously, but I always feel that she is not serious when I look at her.”
Then catch the insects. . . .
