After all, mother and son are connected. Even if Xu Shiyan said it calmly, Zhou Guilan knew that things were not that simple.
Zhou Guilan couldn't help but shed tears when she thought of her son's encounter with the blind man on the mountain and how many dangers he had to go through to save his life and get these things back.
"San'er, don't go into the mountains again. It's too dangerous and scary."
As a mother, I just want my son to be safe.
No matter how much money you make, if something happens to you, you won't be able to survive this day.
When Xu Shiyan saw his mother like this, he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, "Mom, I will pay attention to it in the future, don't worry."
This time it was indeed suspenseful. If he hadn't run to the edge of the Lizi, if it hadn't been for the pine tree, Xu Shiyan would probably have confessed.
Of course, without the blind black man chasing him, if the blind black man hadn't happened to fall on the platform, he wouldn't have been able to meet those wild ginseng trees.
Maybe this is what people say, "Misfortunes and blessings depend on each other. If you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later."
Anyway, not only did he come back intact, but he also gained a lot. Even if he went through a little danger, it was worth it.
Of course, he had to be careful in the future. He couldn't go into the mountains empty-handed. It was best to get a gun, even if it wasn't semi-automatic, just a gun.
Zhou Guilan didn't know what her son was thinking. If he knew, it probably wouldn't be as simple as kicking him.
Zhou Guilan felt a little more at ease with her son's safe return and his assurance. Now she felt a little happy when she looked at these things on the kang.
"By the way, Mom, I also dug two ginseng trees, look."
Xu Shiyan knew that several brothers behind him were waiting to see the sticks, so he didn't hide them and just took out two ginseng buns.
The three big ones were placed at the bottom of the backpack, and they were covered tightly with tattered clothes, so that nothing was exposed.
The ginseng package was opened, revealing two human-shaped sticks inside, and there was a gasp in the room.
These two ginseng trees are both very beautiful in shape.
Let’s look at the reed first.
The big one is a bamboo reed. The stem marks have not flattened out over time. There are link-like protrusions at certain intervals, shaped like bamboo joints.
The small one is the horse tooth reed, with obvious stem marks, sparsely arranged alternately and large, with ripples on the edges, shaped like horse teeth.
Let’s look at the body, which is the main root of ginseng.
The figure is exquisite and exquisite, the body and legs are well-proportioned and well-proportioned, and the two legs are naturally separated from each other. This is an obvious spiritual body.
Then there is the skin, which is the outer skin of the root.
The big one has a tight and delicate skin, yellowish white and shiny, this is Jinpi. The small one has a fine skin, white and shiny, this is tender skin.
There are also striae, which mainly refer to the annular transverse striations at the tip of the main root. The older the ginseng is, the tighter the transverse striations will be.
Finally, there are the fibrous roots, which are the roots growing on the supporting roots, called fibrous roots. The knob-like protrusions on the fibrous roots are called pearl bumps.
The ginseng whiskers of these two ginseng trees are uniform in thickness, slender, sparse and not messy, flexible but not brittle, like leather strips, with obvious pearl bumps on them, which are called leather strips.
In general, these two ginsengs, one big and one small, are both top-grade in every aspect. The only difference is the weight.
"Lao Wu, go to Jiagui's place quickly and borrow a ginseng to weigh these two ginseng trees." Xu Shixian couldn't help it and hurriedly sent Xu Shixiang to borrow a ginseng.
A scale is the kind of small scale used in drug stores in the past to weigh medicines.
Ginseng is light and cannot be weighed accurately with an ordinary scale. There are no electronic scales these days, so you can only use a scale.
Wang Jiagui is the barefoot doctor in the village. He has a son at home. That's why Xu Shixian sent Xu Shixiang to borrow it.
Xu Shixiang couldn't hold back his anger at this moment, and ran away to Wang's house in a hurry.
It happened that Wang Jiagui didn't go out. When he heard that he was borrowing his son to weigh the mallet, Wang Jiagui took good faith in him and came with him.
When he arrived at Xu's house and saw the two sticks, Wang Jiagui's eyes widened. Oh my god, why are these two ginseng trees so beautiful?
Xu Shiyan didn't let anyone else do it. He carefully picked up the ginseng and put it on the basket to weigh it.
The small one weighs one or two or three yuan, and the big one weighs three and a half yuan. Xu Shiyan made a rough estimate in his mind. Two ginseng trees cost at least one thousand and fifty yuan, and more could sell for two thousand.
There is also bear gallbladder. It is a copper gallbladder and is not light in weight. If we had to count it all, we would have lost more than 2,000 yuan.
Not only Xu Shiyan knew it, but other people could also roughly calculate it in their minds. One or two thousand yuan, who wouldn't be jealous of it?
"Ahem, Mom, why not let the third child and younger siblings come back to live there." Xu Shixian coughed twice and said.
"My sister-in-law is pregnant with a child, and it doesn't look good for her. They can't live alone outside.
It's better to move back here and have my mother, Xiulin and my second younger brother and sister take care of me. It will be good for my third younger brother and sister and the children." Xu Shixian found a perfect excuse.
"Yes, yes, Mom, let Yingzi and Laosan come back."
Xue Xiulin, who had been watching the excitement in the outer room, couldn't help it anymore, stepped into the east room, and said with a smile on his face.
"You see, I can't work in the fields now since I'm taking care of Da Bin, so it's convenient for me to take care of Ying Zi." Xue Xiulin said, but her eyes were fixed on the two ginseng trees.
"Yes, my sister-in-law is right. Yingzi is pregnant. She can't give birth to her baby in someone else's house. It's better to let them move back."
Wei Mingrong was a step too slow to react, and he was annoyed and hurriedly agreed.
"It was all just talk at first. Now that we have reached that point, how can the family still hold grudges? It would be better to move back."
Zhou Guilan is old, but she is not confused yet. She knows very well what her son and daughter-in-law are thinking.
These guys were all careless. When the old couple moved out, they all wanted to watch the fun.
It's been so long since the couple moved away, and I haven't seen my brother and sister-in-law come over to see if they need help.
Now that the third child has become prosperous, they rush to help talk. Are they talking about the third child and his wife? Then they are clearly talking about the two ginseng trees and the bear bile.
"San'er, what do you think?" Zhou Guilan looked at her third son, she couldn't make the decision on this matter.
"Mom, elder brother, second brother, elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, thank you for your kindness." Xu Shiyan nodded towards those few and smiled.
"But since both of us have separated, there is no reason to come back."
Do you really think he is stupid? If he nods and agrees to come back, the ginseng and bear bile will become part of the family, and everyone will have a share.
Why? He worked hard for it outside. These people didn't contribute a single cent, so why should they share it? Just dream.
"Mom, I want to take Yingzi to Tonghua Hospital for a checkup. This is the first time she has had a baby, so I'm not worried."
This is the most important thing. While the baby is still young, go to the hospital for a checkup as soon as possible. Maybe you can save the baby.
"Ah? Go to the hospital? You still have to go to Tonghua? No, right?" Zhou Guilan was confused. Why did this talk about medical treatment again?
