Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

Chapter 11: Sending Ginseng and Making Up Stories

Qin Huan saw his mother first asked Ouyang Qing to sit down: "Mom, you saw Qingqing and ignored me, right? You didn't even call me,"

Mother Qin saw her silly daughter and said: "You are jealous too. It's rare for Qingqing to come to our house for dinner. You are so jealous now that it's really embarrassing."

Dad Qin and Brother Qin also looked at their funny daughter or sister with a doting look on their faces.

"Okay, okay, I'm afraid you'll be bored, so I'm here to liven up the atmosphere before dinner and whet your appetite.

After all, Zhao Ma cooked so many delicious dishes today, they can't be wasted. " "Yes, no matter what you say, you are right.

How come all the pettiness in our family is on you?"

"Mom and Dad, don't you know what kind of gift Qingqing brought you today? I thought it was for me, and she wouldn't even let me see it first."

When Ou Ma heard her daughter say this, she immediately said, "Why are you so polite when your aunt invites you to have a meal? Aren't you treating our family as outsiders?"

"Auntie, I know that you have been treating me like your own daughter since my parents left. Brother Qin also treats me like a sister like Huanhuan.

Over the years, no matter where you work, if you buy gifts for Huanhuan, you must not forget to bring one for me. I will always remember the kindness you have shown me."

"Today's gift is a very special one. You are so kind to me, so I hope you are healthy and live a long life.

I got this gift by chance, but I think it is the most suitable gift for you and uncle. Auntie, please open it and take a look first."

When the couple heard Ouyang Qing say this, they knew that the child did not regard them as outsiders, and they became even more satisfied when they saw Ouyang Qing's expression.

"Since it's so mysterious, open it and show it to us first, otherwise the food in our mouths will not taste good."

Ouyang Qing placed the gift box on the table, and slowly opened the exquisite ink-colored wooden box. "This... is such a thick wild ginseng, and the appearance is so good.

Qingqing, this wild ginseng looks like it must be at least a thousand years old, right? It's hard to find wild ginseng of this age and quality on the market now.

You should take it back and keep it carefully, it can save your life at a critical moment."

Ouyang's father said hurriedly, "Yes! This is too valuable for you, child. Your uncle and I really can't accept it. This is a rare treasure!" Ouyang's mother also echoed.

"Uncle and aunt, you can take it without worry. I got a few ginsengs by chance. The ginseng I brought to you today is considered to be of upper-middle quality in my hands.

Don't worry, I've kept it for myself. "When Qin's father and mother saw Ouyang Qing's calm answer, they knew she was not lying.

"Since you say so, your aunt and I will shamelessly accept it. You are a blessed child.

It's rare for others to come across a plant of this quality in their lifetime, and you've come across several at once, which is unique."

When Ouyang Qing heard what Qin's father said, he brought out the excuse he had prepared before sending the ginseng: "In fact, it is thanks to my father that I was able to come across such good ginseng.

Uncles, you all know that my dad likes to hike alone. Once when he was traveling, he took the wrong path and got lost.

The mountain was huge and he couldn't get out for several days. Just when he was in despair, the man who was hunting there saved him. They left my dad at their house to rest for 2 days.

They also sent my dad down the mountain safely. After he got down the mountain, my dad wanted to repay them, but they refused to give him anything.

My dad had no choice but to leave my home address and his phone number to that man, and the matter was left unresolved.

So only our family knew about this. My father said that if that family came or was willing to move down the mountain, we would help them no matter what.

"Just a year ago, that family came to visit me. When they heard that my father had passed away, they said that no one could help him and there was no hope.

I saw that he and my father knew a family that was so pitiful, and their living conditions were not very good, so I asked them if they needed any help.

I just heard from them that my father and his family used to live in the mountains, and only a handful of people could leave the village. This time he had no choice but to go down the mountain because his youngest son was sick.

The doctor at the small hospital at the foot of the mountain diagnosed the child with leukemia. The doctor said their hospital couldn't cure it and that if the child wanted to survive, he had to go to a hospital in a big city for treatment.

But the farthest place their family had ever been was the county town at the foot of the mountain."

"I was really forced to do nothing, so I thought of my father and found the note he left behind, but the conditions on the mountain were not good.

Two digits of the number on the note were unclear, so they came here based on this address. It can be said that their family placed all their last hopes on my father.

When the family heard me say that I could help with her son's medical treatment, they almost knelt down in front of me.

I found the best doctor in our area to perform the surgery on his son, and after recuperating for more than a month, he told me that he just couldn’t get used to living in the big city and wanted to go back to his hometown.”

"In fact, I would go to see them a few times from time to time, but I felt that living in a big city was a daily daunting experience for them.

If my youngest son hadn't fallen ill, they might never have come here. Just a few days before I arranged for someone to send them back,

They gave me a cloth bag, saying it was a mallet they found in the mountains, and it was the only thing they had to repay me.

I told him that he had saved my father and saved our entire family's lives, and asked them to take it back."

"But they refused to agree, so I had no choice but to accept it. Then I realized that there were several wild ginsengs in his cloth bag.

I had to pay them for something this valuable. I persuaded them for a long time and showed them the video of the auction before they were willing to accept my money.

Although we didn't spend much time together, I felt that the family was really simple and honest. After I sent someone to send them back,

I bought them a few houses in the county town and found a way for them to make a living. After all, the children will eventually have to leave the mountains.”

"Qingqing, you did the right thing (it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish). You have grown up."

"Okay, let's eat! I'm starving and the food will get cold if I don't eat."

Seeing her daughter who looked like she was going to starve to death if she didn't eat, Qin's mother said, "Okay, okay, eat first, and we'll talk after we finish eating.

Come here, Qingqing, this is the stewed pig's trotters made by Zhao Ma, who loves vegetables, and the beef ribs that you, a little greedy cat, love to eat. "

I picked up a piece of their favorite dish for each of them with my chopsticks, and then sat down and started eating.
