1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!
Chapter 253 Annual Ginseng
Hiding in the bushes, Wen Li witnessed the entire scene, and the doubts in her heart were resolved.
Jiang Chen really doesn't like Jiang Yue'er. The reason he flatters her is probably because he's discovered her usefulness.
Jiang Yue'er's incredible luck was widely known, and Jiang Chen had also witnessed it.
Only Jiang Yue'er, the time traveler, and Wen Li knew about the thousand-year-old ginseng.
Jiang Chen must have known this from Jiang Yue'er.
Otherwise, how could someone as arrogant and conceited as Jiang Chen just stand by and watch Jiang Yue'er raise so many fish?
It's all because Jiang Yue'er and those fish have value to him. As long as he pretends to be blind to their presence, countless benefits await him in the future.
Once he rescues his family, Jiang Yue'er will be of no use to him, so he can just get rid of her, just like he dealt with Guo Caixia's unborn child.
With his looks, how could he possibly have trouble finding a wife who would satisfy him in the future?
The two embraced and whispered sweet nothings to each other, making Jiang Yue'er blush. Only then did they continue their search for the thousand-year-old ginseng.
Wen Li shook off the goosebumps on her body and followed at a distance, this time trying to keep her eyes wide open and not miss any trace of ginseng.
Unfortunately, she wasn't so lucky. Instead, she discovered quite a few rare medicinal herbs, which she plans to dig up later when she has more time.
Many medicinal herbs are nearly extinct in later generations, but they grow in large quantities here. She plans to plant a batch in her space and, when she gets old, contract a medicinal field like her grandfather to grow those herbs, which would be a contribution to the medical field.
As she was letting her imagination run wild with thoughts about the future, she suddenly realized that there was no sound coming from the woods.
Although this is a deep mountain, with the female lead here, there's no way any ferocious beasts could appear. She looked up and saw Jiang Yue'er and Jiang Chen excitedly embracing each other near the edge of the woods.
I was almost moved to tears!
"Ah Chen, we've finally found the thousand-year-old ginseng!"
Jiang Chen was so excited his hands were trembling. "Yue'er, you're truly my lucky star!"
The two exchanged many sweet nothings before finally letting go of each other.
Jiang Yue'er took out a small hoe and drew a circle around it, then took out several other small tools, preparing to start digging for ginseng.
"Moon, let me dig!"
Jiang Yue'er's eyes lit up. "No, this is a thousand-year-old ginseng. Even breaking a single root will affect its medicinal efficacy. I'll do it myself!"
Wen Li silently rolled her eyes in her heart. The ginseng that Jiang Laosan sold her before had severely damaged roots. It turned out that Jiang Yue'er did it on purpose!
But none of that matters anymore. The thousand-year-old ginseng is right in front of her, and Wen Li's heart is entirely focused on the ginseng.
It would probably take several hours to dig out this ginseng.
Wen Li flashed into the space, and she would reappear after Jiang Yue'er dug out the ginseng.
She has already planted all the land in the space.
She also needs to set aside a plot of land specifically for growing thousand-year-old ginseng.
She couldn't bear to take out such precious ginseng, so she cleared a large plot of land in the corner where she had previously planted ginseng, and then sprinkled a lot of spiritual spring water on the open ground to ensure that the thousand-year-old ginseng would be able to absorb the spiritual spring water as soon as it was planted.
She even used tree branches to fence off the area to prevent it from being accidentally collected by mistake.
After clearing the open space, Wen Li collected all the ripe fruits and grains from the space and then watered each fruit tree with spiritual spring water.
Now her space is filled with the fragrance of fruit, and the smell alone is refreshing.
After doing all that, she cut a watermelon and ate it leisurely.
The freshly picked watermelon was crisp and sweet. Sitting on the deck chair, looking at every plant and tree in the space, Wenli felt so comfortable that she didn't want to move.
Compared to Wen Li's leisurely life, Jiang Yue'er and Jiang Chen's lives outside were not so easy.
Just as Jiang Yue'er took out her small hoe to dig, a tiny green snake, about the thickness of a little finger, suddenly emerged from the ginseng leaves. The snake flicked its tongue at the two of them and hissed warningly from time to time.
Jiang Yue'er was startled by the sudden appearance of the small snake and sat down on the ground with a thud. Jiang Chen quickly grabbed a wood-chopping knife and chopped at the snake's vital spot.
I thought that killing the small snake would solve everything, but then several more colorful snakes crawled out of the hole next to the ginseng.
These snakes looked extremely venomous, so Jiang Chen immediately grabbed Jiang Yue'er's hand and ran away.
Several snakes, their tongues flicking, relentlessly pursued the two humans who were trying to steal their treasure.
The male and female protagonists must have had some luck, because in no time at all, Jiang Chen had dealt with all the snakes.
After dealing with the venomous snake, Jiang Chen turned back to find Jiang Yue'er, who had sprained her ankle.
"Moon, how are you?"
"I...I twisted my ankle!"
"Let me see!" Jiang Chen squatted down, gently took off Jiang Yue'er's shoes and socks, lifted her trouser leg, and tenderly massaged it for her.
Looking into Jiang Chen's deep eyes, filled with heartache and self-reproach, Jiang Yue'er felt a surge of warmth in her heart, her heart pounding wildly, and her cheeks flushing involuntarily, as if her whole body was bubbling with pink bubbles.
She looked completely absorbed in the illusion created by Jiang Chen.
"Are you feeling better?"
Jiang Yue'er nodded shyly, "It's nothing, I just twisted my ankle!"
"You should rest, I'll go dig up the ginseng!"
"No, you don't know how to dig it. It would be a shame if you broke the roots!"
Jiang Chen felt even more sorry for Jiang Yue'er. He leaned in and kissed her forehead. "Yue'er, I'm sorry. I'm useless and couldn't help!"
Jiang Yue'er returned Jiang Chen's kiss, "It's okay, I'll take care of it!"
With the venomous snake dealt with, there were no further incidents this time, and Jiang Yue'er dug smoothly. Although she accidentally broke two roots, the roots were not damaged in any way.
As Jiang Yue'er dug deeper and deeper, a ginseng root as thick as an adult's arm appeared before them.
This was the first time Jiang Yue'er had ever seen such a large ginseng, and it already had a human shape, looking very much like a newly formed baby.
Even someone as cold and aloof as Jiang Chen couldn't help but be surprised.
Both of them were so shocked that they couldn't speak. Jiang Yue'er suddenly felt a little reluctant to part with them.
Giving away something so precious would be a waste of its potential; it was a great asset to her after she went to Beijing.
If she really gives it to that person, what leverage will she have left in Beijing?
She hadn't gotten her hands on the space yet, so she had to leave herself a way out!
But Jiang Chen urgently needed this ginseng to befriend that person, and for a moment she was really in a dilemma.
Jiang Chen saw through Jiang Yue'er's reluctance and scheming. His eyes darkened, and he quietly took two steps back. Then, he raised his hand and delivered a chop to the back of Jiang Yue'er's neck.
Jiang Yue'er was preoccupied with persuading Jiang Chen to keep the ginseng, and she was completely unprepared for his presence. She fainted without even realizing it.
Jiang Chen's eyes were icy cold. He picked up the small hoe and continued digging the soil below. He had clearly seen Jiang Yue'er's technique just now. He imitated Jiang Yue'er and clumsily dug the roots out of the soil little by little.
