Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother
Chapter 148 Cross-border Teacher
It was almost eight o'clock and Xu Weiwei had just come down from upstairs. Zhang Pete couldn't wait to go over and say hello.
"Miss, how did you sleep? Does your hand still hurt? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Do you remember the specific location of that grass?"
Xu Weiwei: “…” The last question is what you really care about.
"My little darling is finally awake. You almost scared your grandma to death yesterday." The old lady came over and took Xu Weiwei into her arms and scolded her. Then she looked at Zhang Peter who was standing beside her. "Doctor Zhang is here. Have you had breakfast? Come and have something with us."
"No, no need. I've already eaten. Just wait here. Go and eat."
The old lady nodded and took Xu Weiwei to the dining room to sit down. She moved a few dishes in front of her and said, "I asked the kitchen to make these for you. You've hurt yourself and been frightened, so you need to take good care of yourself."
Xu Weiwei looked at the three plates, two cups, one pot and one bowl beautifully arranged in front of her, and she felt the rice already reaching her throat before she even started eating.
"Thank you grandma, you are so kind. Does big brother have any? Please give some to big brother."
The old lady smiled and narrowed her eyes: "Don't worry, eat it, your eldest brother has some too, and he has more than you."
Xu Weiwei quietly lit a candle for herself and her elder brother, then lowered her head to eat. When she was about 80% full, the rice was still as if she hadn't touched it. There were too many dishes, and taking a few bites of each only caused some "skin damage" to the rice.
After reluctantly drinking some more soup, Xu Weiwei gave her brothers a look for help.
Ryan: "Bring that can of soup over here. I want to try some."
Ryan: "Those two dishes look delicious, bring them to me."
The maid glanced at Xu Weiwei's reaction and saw her pushing the food out with a smile, then she went over to help move it.
"That's outrageous! You're an older brother, but you still fight with your younger sister for food. Don't you usually have enough to eat?" the old lady blamed.
"I'm full grandma, there's a lot made in the kitchen, we can all eat together."
The old lady pinched Xu Weiwei's thin arm distressedly: "You eat too little. There is not much meat on your body. You need to eat more. You don't know that when you were a child, your belly was round and plump. Now you are getting thinner as you grow older..."
Sifos wiped his mouth and freed his daughter from the "tightening curse": "Let's go after dinner. Ryan and Ryan should also finish their meals quickly and ask the driver to take you to school."
Today is Monday and Sifos has taken a day off. He has no intention of going to work until this matter is dealt with.
A team of security guards were already waiting in the backyard of the villa. Sifos, Xu Weiwei, Zhang Pete and the security captain were in a car.
On the way, the security captain reported the progress of the work: "The traps on the mountain have been removed, a total of 118 have been cleared. Because the surveillance has been going on for too long, nothing has been found yet. We have twelve people starting to watch at different times, and we expect to finish watching them all tonight."
Sifos hummed, and then said, "Don't put such dangerous things on the mountain in the future. Wei'er and the others often go there to play, and it would be bad if they get hurt by mistake."
The security captain glanced at Xu Weiwei, nodded and said "OK".
Xu Weiwei looked ahead, seemingly completely uninterested in their conversation.
The mountain road gradually became narrower and vehicles could not pass through, so the group started to get off the car and walk.
Xu Weiwei sat on Xifusi's arm and showed the way. "Go over there... Be careful not to touch the grass with jagged edges, it will hurt..."
"Here we are. It's the plant with a round ball on top." Xu Weiwei extended his index finger.
Zhang Pete couldn't wait to run over, squatted down and observed carefully, touched the leaves, smelled the smell, and even plucked off a small piece of leaf to taste it.
The security guard took out an engineering shovel, a folding pot and other tools, and was about to start digging at the most vigorous plant, but was stopped by Xu Weiwei.
"Wait. Don't dig this one."
Everyone looked at Xu Weiwei, and the security guard quickly stopped his movements and asked, "What's wrong, Miss?"
"This tree is so big. It has only grown a little bit since last year." Xu Weiwei stretched out her thumb and index finger and pinched it.
"It grows so slowly, it must have taken a long time to grow to this size. It would be a shame if it died after being dug up. There are smaller ones nearby, so we should dig up the smaller one."
Everyone thought it made sense and started to change their target. When they were about to dig, they asked Xu Weiwei for her opinion and only started digging after she gave them a positive response. Although Zhang Pete envied the big ones, he also understood that he couldn't drain the pond to catch all the fish. After taking a few photos from different angles, he let it go and turned to stare at the security guards' work.
Sifos keenly discovered several holes in the ground, which were traces left by plants being uprooted. So he squatted down, hugged Xu Weiwei and asked, "Are these the ones that Wei'er pulled out at that time?"
Xu nodded slightly: "I can't pull out the big ones, so I can only pick up the small ones."
"Why do we have to pull it up by the roots? Can't we pull up the leaves?"
"I saw Beta dig out roots after chewing the leaves. I didn't know which one was useful, so I took them all over."
Pulling out the leaves is just a trick, the real useful part of Panax notoginseng is the root. But if you dig up the roots directly with a strong purpose, it will be hard to explain.
Hearing Xu Weiwei's words, Zhang Pete quickly instructed the security guard: "Dig deeper, be careful not to damage the roots, you can dig a little further out..."
Sifos rubbed her head and praised her generously: "Weier is so smart, you are worthy of being my daughter."
Xu Weiwei rubbed her nose in embarrassment. Then, a light bulb suddenly lit up her head and she realized that this was an opportunity. So she asked innocently, "Dad, if this grass can cure diseases, then are other grasses also possible?"
Sivers paused for a moment, feeling an inexplicable sense of fate come over him.
"dad?"
After his thoughts drifted back to his senses, Sifos smiled and said, "Of course, you are right. There are all kinds of birds in the forest. There must be more than just this kind of grass that can cure diseases. There may be many treatment methods that we don't know about."
"When you grow up a little bit, I can take you to see a teacher. You two will definitely have a lot to talk about."
"Is he the teacher who studies plants?" Xu Weiwei asked curiously.
Sifos thought for a moment and said, "I guess so. Besides plants, she is also good at painting and needlework."
Xu Weiwei: ???
This teacher is a cross-disciplinary expert, and he knows quite a lot.
