Chapter 13 Selling Medicinal Herbs

Jiang Liushi and the others were stunned, and Jiang Youfu, who was sitting next to him, was even more bewildered.

"What are you doing here?" he frowned.

Jiang Yun Ning smiled. "Uncle, even though we've separated the family, we're still family. What's wrong with us having a meal together, Grandma?"

She looked at Jiang Liushi with a bright smile.

"You're not only family when you want something, are you? Grandma has never been one to show favoritism." She asked while flattering Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu's eyes flickered, and she waved her hand impatiently: "It's just a meal, right? Eat."

As she spoke, she took the lead in picking up meat with her chopsticks and serving it to her eldest grandson Jiang Mancang and great-grandson Jiang Zheng'an, as if afraid that the two of them would not get any.

"Go to the kitchen and get your own bowls and chopsticks," Yang Guizhi thought to herself.

By the time Jiang Yunning and the others brought out their bowls and chopsticks, they had already put all the rabbit meat into their bowls.

Jiang Yuning raised an eyebrow, as if she had expected it, and directly took out the large bowl and spoon hidden behind her back.

"Father, Mother, time to eat."

As they spoke, the group swarmed around, each taking a large spoonful and scooping up every last bit of rabbit meat.

Jiang Che reacted quickly. Instead of scooping out the meat, he swiftly poured all the porridge from Jiang Youfu and the others' bowls into the basin.

Anyway, I haven't drunk from it, so it's clean.

"Grandma, you're so stingy! You only made this little bit of food? Tsk tsk, never mind, let's go home and eat." Jiang Yuntian shook his head repeatedly, grabbed Liu Yuzhi's hand, and ran away quickly.

Jiang Yunning said that they should act quickly, otherwise by the time they realized what was happening, the weapons might be taken back.

Jiang Che sneered. With him around, no one could take him away.

The group quickly ran out of the courtyard, and as they reached the corner, they heard a great deal of chaotic noise erupting from inside.

Jiang Liushi was cursing, while Jiang Zheng'an, who hadn't gotten any meat, sat on the ground crying.

That night, Jiang Laosan's family ate their fill and were very satisfied.

The next morning, Jiang Yuning went into the space first, picked all the ripe tomatoes and put them into the small wooden house, preparing to try selling them when the opportunity arose.

Ordinary families can't do that; they have to go to a restaurant.

Tomatoes grown with spring water will always find buyers.

After breakfast, Jiang Yunning told Jiang Yuntian the location of the rabbit trap.

"Brother, if you have some free time, go take a walk around. If you find any rabbits, remember to put them in a basket, carry them to town, sell them, and then come back."

Jiang Yuntian nodded: "Okay. I understand."

After giving his explanation, Jiang Yun Ning pulled Jiang Che towards the town.

We need to sell the astragalus we dug up yesterday quickly. No one in their family knows how to process medicinal herbs, and they'll spoil if left too long.

Jiang Che followed beside her, carrying a basket on his back, his eyes occasionally glancing furtively at Jiang Yun Ning.

"How do you plan to sever ties with them?" He couldn't help but ask.

As Jiang Yun Ning walked, she looked around at the grass on both sides to see if there was anything good.

"I don't know, but anyway, this relationship has to be broken off." She didn't think about it in detail.

Let's take it one step at a time. It's not like I've transmigrated into a book and can know the plot in advance.

Jiang Che was speechless. He felt that he might have overestimated Jiang Yun Ning.

Upon arriving in town, Jiang Yun Ning told Jiang Che to wait outside while she went in to inquire about prices. At the fourth shop, she had barely finished asking the price when the doctor recognized her.

"Young lady, you're the one who saved Xie Shengan on the street that day, aren't you?" Doctor Li had a deep impression of her.

Jiang Yun Ning blinked before recognizing the doctor in front of her: "Yes."

Doctor Li stroked his beard: "Bring in your medicinal herbs. I, Old Li, never haggle."

Jiang Yunning nodded.

She had already asked at several places, and the prices were basically the same, so she simply waved to Jiang Che: "Jiang Che! Come in."

Doctor Li examined the quality of the product, his eyes brightening. "This quality is truly excellent. Where did you get it?"

The demand for astragalus is so high that he hasn't seen so much astragalus in a long time.

"I found it in the mountains," Jiang Yun Ning said without hiding anything.

The young apprentice taking the basket from the side weighed it.

"These large, mature seedlings are 150 coins per catty, while these small seedlings are 10 coins. The ordinary ones are 40 coins."

Fearing that Jiang Yunning might not know, Doctor Li specially showed her some of his shop's products.

"The large ones here weigh two jin, the ordinary ones three jin, and the seedlings one jin. The total is four hundred and thirty wen," Doctor Li calculated clearly.

Jiang Yunning's eyes lit up: "Dr. Li, then I won't sell these seedlings. I'll go back and plant them."

If you raise them in a space, wouldn't that be more profitable than selling ketchup?

"Cultivated and wild ones are not the same price," Doctor Li laughed. "But if you raise them to a larger size, you can indeed sell more. But it will take at least a few years."

Jiang Yuning did not explain, and put away the one-pound, thin seedling.

Having noted down the medicinal herbs and received the money, Jiang Yun Ning then bought some soapberries and other ingredients for making soap directly from Doctor Li.

Then he wandered around and bought some osmanthus flowers, and also bought mutton fat to render into oil.

When Jiang Yun Ning returned home in the afternoon, she asked Jiang Che to burn the tree branches they had collected from the mountain into ashes. She then took her clothes and went with Liu Yu Zhi to wash them in the stream west of the village.

There are many people there, making it the perfect place to listen to gossip and gather information.

The weather wasn't that hot at this time, and there were already several women by the river.

The two found a spot and began washing clothes while listening to the women chat.

Just as everyone was engrossed in listening to the gossip of the neighbors, Granny Yang, who had appeared out of nowhere, came over.

"Hey. Who's this? Isn't this Jiang Yunning?" Song Mingzhen followed behind her, looking rather reluctant.

Jiang Yun Ning ignored her and continued washing without even looking up.

Grandma Yang didn't care whether she paid attention to her or not, and happily leaned in: "How about it? The rabbit that was almost in your hands flew away, didn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun Ning realized that the person who relayed the message was Granny Yang.

She looked up at the smug-looking Granny Yang and then remembered that Jiang Youfu's wife, Yang Guizhi, and Granny Yang seemed to be cousins.

"What's wrong? Didn't Yang Guizhi tell you that we ate dinner at the old house last night?" Jiang Yun Ning laughed as well. "I was wondering if she would bring you some meat. Aren't you relatives?"

Granny Yang glared angrily: "I don't care about those few pieces of meat."

"Really? You don't care? Or is no one giving you any?" Jiang Yun Ning saw that she was angry, so she laughed even more happily.

Song Mingzhen tugged at Granny Yang's hand: "Mother, don't argue with her. Let her wash the clothes for us first."

There's been a lot of dirty laundry piling up at home these past few days. Jiang Yuning used to take it to wash, but now she doesn't care anymore, so all the work has fallen back on the shoulders of Granny Yang and Song Mingzhen.

Granny Yang clapped her hands, her eyes darted around, and she grabbed a pile of clothes and threw them in front of Jiang Yun Ning.

"Wash it clean and send it back," she ordered arrogantly.
