Chapter 23 Wild Ginseng

"So, Wang Mazi sent Sun Dahua to the police station?"

Su Nuannuan heard about this as soon as she returned. It truly shattered her worldview.

However, looking back, sending Sun Dahua to the police station was indeed a very good solution.

Otherwise, given her shameless nature, her father would never get justice for Liu Xiangdi.

No matter how much trouble Sun Dahua caused, Su's mother never allowed anyone to disturb the three Su brothers' studies.

Su Sanquan wanted to go out and see the excitement, but his mother stopped him. Su Daliang was the most diligent of them all.

He carefully reviewed the key points Su Nuannuan had highlighted for them several times. Every time she helped her older brother with his studies, she felt like she had no opportunity to use her skills.

Without her past life experiences and the blessing of the spiritual spring water, Su Nuannuan felt that she would definitely not be able to keep up with her older brother's learning progress.

The next day, Su Jianjun did not go to work.

Early in the morning, he was begged by Sun Dahua's husband, Liu Yongjun, and son, Liu Xiaobao, to go to the county town and get Sun Dahua out.

Sun Xiaobao didn't want to come. He felt ashamed to have a mother who had been arrested by the police. However, he knew that if Sun Dahua really went to jail, it would definitely affect his future school entrance exams.

He's going to be a college student, how can we ruin his future because of this? That's why Sun Xiaobao is so anxious.

He harbored deep resentment towards his third sister, who had caused Sun Dahua's arrest by the police. He cursed her countless times in his heart, hoping she would die of illness this time.

What can Su Jianjun do?
As the captain, this was his responsibility.

Sun Dahua is really in jail, and her reputation in the village is bad. After thinking it over, Su Jianjun felt he still had to make the trip.

When Su Nuannuan learned that Su Jianjun had gone to rescue Sun Dahua, she silently mourned for her father for a few seconds.

His father was also unlucky to meet Wang Mazi and Sun Dahua.

"Mom, I promised Liu Zhaodi yesterday that I would teach them to identify medicinal herbs, and I'm going now."

"Identify medicinal herbs?"

Su Nuannuan came home late yesterday, and her mother didn't know what had happened. She explained it to her in detail.

“Yesterday, the doctor prescribed a prescription for Liu Xiangdi, and all the herbs on the prescription can be found in the back mountain. But Zhaodi and the others can’t read, so I went to teach them.”

Upon hearing this, Su's mother felt a pang of sadness. When Liu Xiangdi fell ill, only Zhaodi and Pandi in the Liu family cared; her parents and younger brother didn't care about her at all.

"Go ahead and be safe."

"it is good."

Su Nuannuan carried a small basket on her back, inside which was a small hoe.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, Liu Zhaodi and Liu Pandi were already there. Their eyes lit up when they saw Su Nuannuan.

Liu Zhaodi approached Su Nuannuan, took out an oil paper package from her bosom, handed it to her, and said somewhat apologetically.

"Nuan Nuan, thank you for lending Xiang Di money yesterday. These are some wild vegetable pancakes I made, I'm giving them to you."

After a pause, Liu Zhaodi spoke again, her head lowered and her voice low.

"I'm...I'm sorry, we don't have the money right now. Can we pay you back later?"

Yesterday, Zhou Yongsheng told me that Su Nuannuan had paid for Xiangdi's medical treatment.

In the morning, they asked their father for money, but he said that their mother had all the money and ignored them. However, they clearly saw their father secretly hiding money before.

Knowing they wouldn't get the money, they had no choice but to shamelessly delay payment.

Su Nuannuan waved her hand dismissively. To her, 50 cents was just a number, but to the two girls in front of her, 50 cents was their third sister's life-saving money.

Therefore, Su Nuannuan never intended to ask the other party to repay the money, so she made up an excuse. "You don't need to repay the money. In a little while, you can help me dig up some herbs, which will count as payment."

"this?"

Liu Zhaodi and Liu Pandi were in a dilemma; they didn't know whether they should agree to Su Nuannuan's request.

Su Nuannuan did not give the other party a chance to speak again.

"That's fine. Let's hurry up and leave. Xiangdi is still waiting for you to dig up medicinal herbs to treat her illness."

Upon hearing Su Nuannuan mention Xiangdi, the two no longer hesitated, but simply kept Su Nuannuan's kindness in mind.

Holding Liu Xiangdi's prescription, Su Nuannuan began searching for the medicinal herbs listed. Truly, the mountains of the 60s were rich in medicinal herbs, and of very high quality.

She taught Liu Zhaodi and Liu Pandi to recognize all the medicinal herbs on the prescription, and then she had the two of them dig them up.

She was also digging for medicinal herbs, but unlike Liu Zhaodi and Liu Pandi, she planned to transplant some of them into her space.

Wild goji berries, schisandra berries, ephedra... these medicinal herbs are of much higher quality than those artificially cultivated in the future. Su Nuannuan then had an idea.

She was digging for ephedra. Patches of ephedra grew haphazardly next to withered grass, and when Su Nuannuan found them, many were already dried up, which broke her heart.

Ephedra is a traditional Chinese medicine used to dispel external pathogens. It can help the body sweat and dispel wind and cold, and it is a commonly used medicine.

Su Nuannuan dug the ephedra out of the soil and put it into her basket, which was actually her spatial storage. She then dug up several other commonly used medicinal herbs, such as astragalus, licorice, honeysuckle, and notoginseng…

After Liu Zhaodi and Liu Pandi gathered all the medicinal herbs on the prescription, they spoke to Su Nuannuan.

"Nuan Nuan, we'll put the herbs at home and then come over to help you dig them up."

"No rush, you can come and help me after Xiangdi finishes her medicine."

Liu Zhaodi and Liu Pandi thought about it and agreed.

After the two left, Su Nuannuan continued digging for medicinal herbs. Perhaps she was addicted to it, as she couldn't seem to stop.

Suddenly, she saw a plant with a bunch of red fruits growing on it.

Su Nuannuan's eyes widened, her heart pounding. She rubbed her eyes and examined the plant closely.

It's wild ginseng!

Su Nuannuan couldn't contain her excitement; after all, this was wild ginseng!
Wild ginseng is a precious and rare natural tonic, known for its ability to replenish vital energy, strengthen the spleen and lungs, promote the production of body fluids, and calm the mind. Due to its demanding growing conditions, wild ginseng has always been very expensive. Even now, it remains a rare and highly sought-after tonic.

Su Nuannuan suppressed her excitement and tied the wild ginseng with a red rope with a sense of ceremony. Then she took out a small shovel and began to dig away the soil around it little by little.

As time passed, the wild ginseng gradually came into view before Su Nuannuan. Its roots were very thick, confirming that it wasn't from a trade route, and Su Nuannuan felt relieved.

Trade routes are treacherous; if you make a mistake, you'll be in big trouble.

Seeing the wild ginseng that was as long as her forearm, Su Nuannuan was overjoyed. This wild ginseng must be at least a hundred years old.

She took out a box from her spatial storage and carefully placed the wild ginseng inside.

Only after storing the wild ginseng in her spatial storage did Su Nuannuan feel truly at ease. This was a lifesaver in a critical moment.

Her spring water is good, but would she dare to use it in a critical moment? Wild ginseng is different; it has been widely regarded as a life-saving medicine throughout history. Even if its effects are miraculous, people can understand why.

Su Nuannuan's gaze then fell upon the wild ginseng fruit. Wild ginseng reproduces through seeds, which are located inside the red fruit.

To her surprise, this wild ginseng plant had more than twenty fruits.

Su Nuannuan decided to pick them all and plant them in her space. With the help of the spiritual spring water for irrigation, she believed that she would soon harvest many high-quality wild ginseng.
