Chapter 262 Ginseng as Tuition Fee

Gong Ruini felt really strange looking at the old Yuantou who kept rubbing his hands beside the kang.

You must know that this guy is notoriously cruel and cruel. If you want to get ginseng from him, don't expect to get something from him without paying the price of scraping the skin.

How could such a ruthless person act so timidly? No matter how she looked at it, Gong Ruini felt that it was a violation of all kinds.

All the people present were stunned. They all looked at Old Yuan in surprise, "Old Uncle Yuan, have you picked ginseng?" Of course it was Zhao Gang who stood up at this time.

Zhao Gang was actually quite puzzled, didn't he say that Lao Yuantou didn't gain anything from going up the mountain this time?

Old Yuantou hummed, and took out three ginseng sticks from his bag, which surprised everyone.

Everyone knows that old Yuantou can pick ginseng, but it has never been heard that he can harvest such a big harvest.

Gong Ruini's eyes were straightened, how could there be so many ginseng?
It can't be planted, but it's impossible to think about it. It should be possible that he found it before but didn't move it, and now he picked it all at once.

The problem is that Gong Ruini doesn't understand why he insists on picking these ginsengs even though old Yuantou knows that the price of ginseng will only get more expensive.

And let the ginseng grow for a few more years, the year will be even longer, and the price will be even better. Gong Ruini really doesn't understand why old Yuantou insists on doing this.

"Doctor Zhan, I want you to teach my grandson Yuan Chengjie a little about Chinese medicine." Old Yuan also knew that his request was not very good, but he had no choice.

Old Yuantou feels that as he gets older, some things must be carefully considered for his grandson. Old Yuantou knows that some things look good, but when he is not around, what will happen to his grandson in the future? Who is it really? I don't know anything.

Ah, I wanted to come to apprentice. Gong Ruini was very surprised. You must know that Zhan Jing has been in the village for so long and has never accepted an apprentice. Did Jing change her mind?

More importantly, if Yuan Chengjie is accepted, what will the villagers think? The village has a good relationship with Zhan Jing, and I don't know how many people there are. Seeing that Zhan Jing has started to accept apprentices, I don't know how many people will be jealous.

Zhan Jing was also in a dilemma. She didn't accept apprentices. At the beginning, she came to receive re-education. Of course, she lived with her tail curled up. How could she act in a high-profile way to accept apprentices.

After the situation got better, Zhan Jing put this idea to rest. After getting in touch with the villagers, she didn't think there was an apprentice she needed here, "Old Uncle Yuan, I'm embarrassed by your proposal."

Old Yuantou also knew that he came to the door so fiercely and offered such a heavy gift, many people had to think about it, "I am already in my 60s, and I don't know what will happen tomorrow."

"There are so many children in the family. In order not to let other people think of Yuan Chengjie, I didn't teach him how to pick ginseng." Old Yuantou didn't care what Zhan Jing and the others would think about such a family scandal.

Now that he had made up his mind, in order for Zhan Jing to accept Yuan Chengjie as his apprentice, Old Yuan didn't think about hiding anything.

Ah, Yuan Chengjie doesn't know how to pick ginseng?Gong Ruini was very strange, didn't everyone say that old Yuantou liked such a grandson, and there were many rumors outside that Yuan Chengjie would get old Yuantou's property?
Could it be that old Yuantou thinks that picking ginseng is more difficult, so he has never used such a brain?
"It's not that I don't want to teach, it's not that Yuan Chengjie is stupid, it's that he knows a lot, his uncle and the others won't agree."

"They are all staring at my money, and they are worried that I will give it to Yuan Chengjie. Every time I gather ginseng, they are all staring at me and trying to ask for money." Those children are all kinds of sad.

Anyway, Zhao Gang and the others are not talkative people. Old Yuantou also made up his mind after watching for a long time. Zhan Jing has concerns about some things, and he also has concerns.

Uh, the situation of old Yuan's family can be so bad?Gong Ruini remembered that Lao Yuan's family was very united, but there was no need for Lao Yuan to discredit his children.

"It's impossible for me to leave more money to Chengjie, so I thought that instead of giving him money, it's better to let him learn a craft, so that even if I die, don't worry that I won't be able to live on."

"Grandpa." Yuan Chengjie was very reluctant. Compared with his cousins, he was most familiar with Old Yuantou. "Grandpa, you'll be fine,"

"Of course I'm fine." He's such a simple and honest child. Old Yuantou really wants to get angry with his grandson, and he doesn't think about his grandfather and my health. But in order to allow Zhan Jing to accept Yuan Chengjie, Of course, old Yuantou had to do some preparatory work.

If there was something wrong with the atmosphere before, everyone thought that the old man's health was not good enough, but just looking at the old man's annoyed expression just now, knowing that his condition is not very bad, everyone was relieved.

"Well, I'm exaggerating a bit." His own grandson dismantled him, and no matter how dissatisfied Old Yuan was, he couldn't vent his anger.

Now that Zhan Jing and the others have found out, old Yuantou changed his expression without any embarrassment, "But the situation in my family is true."

"The most I can do is to give Cheng Jie a house, nothing else." Old Yuan Tou said why he would be nice to Cheng Jie.

Gong Ruini was not interested in these so-called family short stories, because she was concerned about what to do with these ginseng plants.

It's not that Zhan Jing didn't want to. After all, it's not about teaching the children in the village how to cook medicinal materials, but to learn the basics from scratch, which gave Zhan Jing a headache.

They are already such a big child, it will be very tiring to teach from scratch.

The problem is that old Yuantou finally made up his mind, how could Zhan Jing say a negative answer, of course it was all kinds of tragic past events.

But what Zhan Jing said was tearful, "I can accept that, but it depends on Yuan Chengjie's qualifications."

No matter how soft-hearted Zhan Jing was, she would not accept an idiot apprentice to embarrass herself, so she bluntly raised her request in front of Lao Yuantou.

Of course, old Yuantou has no objection, if his grandson is really not enlightened on this, there is no need to waste time, it is better to learn something else if he has this time.

"Teacher..." Yuan Chengjie was also quite surprised. To be honest, he felt that his grandfather was thinking too much. He didn't think Zhan Jing would accept him, and he didn't expect that he would get started.

Zhan Jing would not let Yuan Chengjie call her teacher now, "You are talking about it when I officially accept it."

"If you meet my requirements, then I will accept you as an apprentice, otherwise there is no hope." As long as life is easy and people are more down-to-earth, Zhan Jing really doesn't mind taking an apprentice.

In this way, there will be people in the surrounding villages who need a doctor in the future, and she doesn't need to toss around, especially now that she has twin sons, who are too busy with all kinds of things, and having an apprentice can make her a lot easier.

Old Yuantou was very happy, so he kept the three ginsengs, "For Dr. Zhan's tuition."

Old Yuantou loves money, but for the sake of his grandson's future, he can endure not wanting money.

As long as his grandson is up-to-date and can study hard with Zhan Jing, he will not worry about having nothing to eat in the future.

No matter how valuable ginseng is, it depends on whether it can be kept, otherwise it will be a disaster, and it is better to learn the craft.
