Su Qiao directly pushed the long wooden box containing ginseng in front of the old man: "Grandpa, this ginseng is a precious medicinal material. Tell grandma to keep it well and put one or two pieces in the soup every once in a while. It will nourish your bodies."
"As for the others, they are not rare medicines. They can be dug up in the forest behind here."
"I was just thinking about something to see if I could make a living from it. You don't know if you can go back to the mine now. With such a large family like us, it's not a big deal if we don't have any income."
The old man opened the box of ginseng, looked at it, closed it again, and pushed it to the center of the table:
"This ginseng is a reward from that gentleman, just keep it! Grandpa and your grandma are still strong and healthy, so they don't need any supplements."
The old lady opened her mouth, looked at her husband, and finally closed it.
Su Qiao picked up the box, stood up and stuffed it directly into the old lady's arms: "Grandma, you should keep it!
Maybe I’ll need it someday, and if you leave it with me, I’m afraid I’ll lose it carelessly.”
Seeing that she was determined not to accept it, the old man nodded to his wife and said, "My granddaughter asked you to accept it, so you should accept it first!"

Beishan, Guyin Temple.
Yuan Wu returned to the quiet villa in the back mountain of Guyin Temple with the rejected gift and one hundred taels of silver.
Xiaoliu saw him from afar, walked over to him, and asked curiously, "How is it? Did the fat girl take the money?"
Yuan Wu shook his head, turned around and pointed at the two people carrying things behind him.
Xiaoliu's eyes suddenly widened: "No?"
“How could that black girl...?” How could she not ask for money
Isn’t it said that the young steward’s family is extremely poor
That day, he saw that the little girl's clothes had several patches on them. Could it be that he was dazzled and saw it wrong
Yuan Wu pushed him away: "Don't block me, I still have to report to the master."
Xiaoliu still couldn't believe it. He walked up to the two men following Laowu and uncovered one of the plates.
The ten big white silver dollars sparkled in the sun.
“It turns out that they really were not confiscated.”
Xiaoliu was distracted for a moment, then quickly caught up with Laowu and entered the inner hall together.
"master!"
On the kang couch by the window, a man in a black robe with gold patterns was leaning against a huge white tiger.
Baihu closed his eyes and lay on the kang, seeming to be taking a nap.
In front of the man was a set of black and white jade chess pieces.
Between her slender white fingers, she was holding a black chess piece, as if she was thinking about where to put it, without even raising her head: "What's going on?"
Yuan Wu was silent for a moment: "According to Manager Su, he was frightened."
Feng Han paused as he put down the chess piece and raised his head: "Scared?"
Oh, that calm and collected look in the mine, as if he was frightened
"In addition to being frightened, Miss Su also has external injuries."
Xiaowu couldn't deny this.
The scratch on the arm was nothing for a man, but for a weak woman, it was indeed serious.
"trauma?"
Feng Han frowned slightly, and the scene of the two of them escaping from the coal mine emerged in his mind.
At that time, there was indeed blood on her clothes and hands, but he initially thought that the blood was from the little steward she carried on her shoulders.
I was also deceived by her calmness and the way she ran while carrying a person, and naturally thought that she was not injured.
"I have personally checked it. It's just a few scratches on the arm. At most, there will be a few small scars. It's nothing serious."
She's just a little country girl, so it's no big deal if she just got some skin bruises.
