70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

"Fifty thousand, not a cent less!"

Lu Chaoyan said very seriously.

From the moment the ginseng left the soil, she used her supernatural powers to nourish it.

Now, its medicinal effect is thousands of times stronger than that of an ordinary century-old ginseng.

It is no exaggeration to say that it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

She would feel like she was losing money even if she sold it for 50,000, but due to the limitations of this era, she couldn't sell it at a high price.

"It's too high, no one will buy it." Zhang Hai shook his head.

Lu Chaoyan thought for a moment, "Do you have a camera in your room? Take a few pictures of this ginseng and send it to the big city. Don't focus on the little people in our county."

"Haha, little girl, you have so many ideas. Wait, I'll get them."

Zhang Hai took out the camera, and Lu Chaoyan put the ginseng into several beautiful poses and took more than ten photos.

Afterwards, Zhang Hai talked about buying fungus with Tao Yuwei.

"She said this morning that in the next ten days, she would be able to send me 100 kilograms of black fungus every three days. In order to get her to do it, I gave her a deposit of 1,000 yuan. Seeing how happy she was, she should be planting black fungus on a large scale."

After saying that, Zhang Hai added, "She is also a very brave and powerful person."

"Not only is he powerful, he is also ruthless. Thank you, Uncle Zhang. When I succeed in the future, I will definitely thank you."

"Oh, it's just a simple thing, no need to thank me."

The two chatted about something else. Seeing that the time was almost up, Lu Chaoyan took the ginseng, bought two pounds of meat and a large fishing net, took out Si Zhengyan's money, and went home.

The yard was bustling with activity. Several girls from the Youth League compound at the back came to ask Lu Yuedan to make clothes for them.

The fabrics used were some they brought with them, and some they bought from Lu Yuedan.

Like Lu Xiang, Lu Yuedan has loved needlework since childhood, and the handkerchiefs she embroidered are exquisite and creative.

When it comes to making clothes, she can make them just by looking at the styles on others.

Lu Chaoyan planned to buy her some books on fashion design and let her study on her own, which would surely be of great use in the future.

She put away the things she bought, rode her bike, and went to the home of the young man who delivered the baby yesterday.

When I got there, it happened that a large group of people from the woman's family had come.

Lu Chaoyan apologized first, and then said bluntly that Liu Zhibai bought the placenta for Gu Suyi and Tao Yuwei to eat.

"You know, these people don't have as many taboos as us villagers. They heard that the placenta can nourish the body, so they asked Doctor Liu to collect it for them to cook and eat."

After hearing this, everyone understood.

It wasn’t Dr. Lu’s granddaughter who went home and asked Dr. Liu to buy the placenta.

But it was the mother and daughter from the city who did such a heartless thing.

Finally, Lu Chaoyan took out a hundred yuan and said, "I'm really sorry. This is the hundred yuan Liu Zhibai wants to compensate you. I hope you can forgive us."

The reason why I didn’t say that I paid for it is that I didn’t want it to be spread as: You didn’t eat it, why are you paying for it?

"Oh my god, I lost so much money."

"Little Doctor Lu, your grandfather is a good doctor, and your father is also a good doctor. We don't blame you."

Originally, the woman’s family was resentful because the placenta was lost, but now they all smiled when they saw the money.

Lu Chaoyan gave the money to the pregnant woman and said, "Take the money and don't let it hurt yourself."

"Uh-huh!"

The mother's eyes were filled with tears of gratitude, and all the regrets and humiliation of being forced yesterday had disappeared.

When Lu Chaoyan returned home, she saw Lu Hanqing busy in the clinic and Lu Yuedan also busy measuring people's sizes. She went into the kitchen to cook.

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, dry-pot cabbage, stir-fried lettuce, spicy and sour cabbage, and a separate pot of eggs stewed for Lu Yuanyuan.

She planted several kinds of vegetables in her private plot in the north corner, including amaranth, water spinach, radish, potato and watermelon. Although some of the vegetables were not suitable for harvest in this season, she had special powers.

It’s just that insects are so annoying, they always eat those lush green leaves.

While eating, Lu Hanqing leaned on her shoulder and said mysteriously, "Brother Zhengyan went into the mountains to pick blood ears for you. He hasn't come back yet. Go and bring him food."

Lu Chaoyan nodded, and after the meal, she made a portion of fried dried loach with chili peppers and a portion of scrambled eggs with shredded lettuce for Si Zhengyan.

Now it is the end of July, and the rice in the fields is gradually turning yellow. Si Qichen no longer puts his energy into repairing the reservoir, and spends most of his time in the team preparing for the autumn harvest.

Lu Chaoyan took Si Zhengyan's 1,500 yuan and the national food coupons to the brigade headquarters.

After all, Jiang Xiuqin is Si Zhengyan's mother. She doesn't have the courage to tell him, "I drugged your mother."

It’s not that she was afraid that Si Zhengyan would blame her, but she was worried that Si Zhengyan would investigate what happened that day, and then he would know that the child was his.

Let Si Qi Nian transfer the money to Si Zhengyan and keep everything secret.

Si Qi Nian took the money and said jokingly with a hint of temptation, "It's useless. Do you want to support Zheng Yan?"

Lu Chaoyan burst out laughing, "Seventh Grandpa, have you forgotten that Si Zhengyan saved Han Qing's life? This is my way of repaying him. We don't owe each other anything in the future."

"Okay, we don't owe each other anything. I'll keep it a secret for you. Go and get busy."

Si Qien thought that she was afraid that Si Zhengyan would know that she had drugged Jiang Xiuqin, so she decided not to let Si Zhengyan know what happened at Si's house that day.

This was exactly what Lu Chaoyan wanted. She left the brigade headquarters, carrying her fishing nets and food, and went into the mountains to find Si Zhengyan.

He was drying his bloody ears on the top of the mountain. Judging from his tattered clothes, he must have encountered a ferocious beast when he went up the mountain alone.

Not far away were the prey he had shot with the bamboo arrows he had made himself: three rabbits and five pheasants.

"Wait for me to come with you next time."

"Okay," Si Zhengyan ate his meal, his eyes soft, "Don't worry about me, I have a gun."

Lu Chaoyan, "Haha!"

It was just a simple sentence, but he made it sound ambiguous.

After Si Zhengyan finished his meal, Lu Chaoyan and he spread out a large fishing net on the top of the mountain and scattered the blood ears that Si Zhengyan had picked in the morning on it to dry in the sun.

Then they went into the forest together, Si Zhengyan picked the blood-ear fruits from the high place, and Lu Chaoyan picked the fruits from the low place.

The forest is filled with dappled light and a cool breeze.

Si Zhengyan kept smiling as he looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, silently thanking Si Zhengyang, the short-sighted fool, for leaving such a good girl for him to protect.

At this time of year, wild fruits in the mountains can be seen everywhere.

Si Zhengyan left for half an hour and picked a bag of ripe wild hawthorns, bright red raspberries, black wild grapes, purple goat milk fruits, dark purple pomegranates, and hairy kiwis.

He was very careful. He washed them all, wrapped them in leaves of a big tree, placed them on a big rock under the shade of the tree, and called Lu Chaoyan to eat.

After Lu Chaoyan sat down, Si Zhengyan peeled a kiwi fruit and handed it to her, "It's a little sour."

The man was sitting shorter than her. The big hands he used to peel the kiwi were bony and full of strength. There were a few bloody scratches on the back of his white hands from thorns, giving off an inexplicable sense of brokenness.

Lu Chaoyan lowered her eyes and looked into his peach blossom eyes which were gentle and hazy, and felt a little intoxicated.

“Thank you. I’ll eat this.”

She picked up a bunch of wild grapes, turned away, and made small talk, "I heard that you joined the army when you were thirteen. You have been away from home for so many years. Do you still remember which wild fruits are edible?"
