The Female Supporting Character in Quick Transmigration is Making a Comeback

Chapter 88 The Female Supporting Character in the Era (38)

She went back to the Wang family home to get her small bag, sickle, and basket, and filled a jug with water before heading out.

"Xian'er, where are you going?" Wang Qing felt much better these past few days and wasn't tired so easily anymore. Hearing a noise, she thought someone had come.

When I opened the door, I saw He Xian'er. Judging from her attire, she seemed to be about to go out, so I called out to her.

"Third cousin, I want to go for a walk in the mountains and see if I can find any wild vegetables."

"Wait for me, I'll go with you!"

He Xian'er looked at Wang Qing, whose complexion had improved considerably, but she still asked with concern, "Third cousin, are you alright?"

"What's there to worry about? I know my own body well, and I get bored at home every day!"

He Xian'er was still worried. "Okay, but if you feel unwell, you must not suffer in silence. You must tell me."

"I understand, I won't joke around with my health," Wang Qing assured him, patting his chest.

After saying goodbye to Miao Cuihua, the two went out and headed towards the back mountain.

As I passed by the cowshed, I ran into Grandpa Zuo, who was walking out. "Grandpa Zuo, are you better now?"

Grandpa Zuo kept his distance from them as if he was afraid of being seen, and nodded, which was his answer to He Xian'er.

Seeing his behavior, He Xian'er wondered whether she wanted to avoid suspicion or wait until later that night.

Wang Qing didn't want He Xian'er to take any risks. "Xian'er, since you've already helped them, don't have any more contact with them."

"Third cousin, they did nothing wrong. The ones who are wrong are those so-called gangs. And I think it won't be long before things are set right."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qing's expression turned anxious. He glanced around and, seeing that no one was there, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xian'er, how dare you say such a thing? Are you out of your mind?"

"Third cousin, don't worry, I checked that no one was around before I spoke. Would you betray me?"

"Of course not!" Wang Qing replied decisively.

"That settles it then. Besides, I have a feeling that the country will soon pay more attention to education. I plan to learn from Uncle Zuo and Aunt Wen. Do you want to come?"

"I don't want to go; I won't be able to get into university even if I do!"

"Who says you can't go to college? Maybe in a few years you'll be able to go?"

Their voices faded into the distance, carried away by the wind…

Although it's not springtime, you can still see some wild vegetables. The two picked some sow thistle and leafy greens.

Sow thistle has the functions of clearing heat and drying dampness, reducing swelling and draining pus, resolving blood stasis and detoxifying, cooling blood and stopping bleeding.

You can make a sauce to dress the lettuce.

Leafy greens have anti-ulcer properties and can also be used to relieve cough, pain, fever, and sedation. They are also known to lower blood sugar, reduce inflammation, fight ulcers, fight tumors, and inhibit bacteria.

You can make a stir-fried leafy green vegetable.

As they walked, they saw yellow wild fruits hanging on the branches. He Xian'er picked one and tasted it; it was a little sweet and sour.

After walking for a while, I found a rock to sit on and rest.

He Xian'er took out the water bottle, drank some water, and then handed the water bottle to Wang Qing.

After a short rest, the two headed into the deep mountains.

Several red flowers appeared in the jungle ahead. "Xian'er, there are wild ginseng about 5 meters ahead of you."

He Xian'er's eyes lit up. She had been worried about how to sell the ginseng from the farm, and now her chance had come.

“Third cousin, those red flowers up ahead look like ginseng flowers,” He Xian’er said, pulling Wang Qing to the ginseng plants.

"Xian'er, are you sure you're not mistaken? It really is ginseng?" Wang Qing was somewhat incredulous. He had heard of people in the village digging up ginseng in the deep mountains, but he had never seen ginseng found on the mountainside.

"Let's dig it out first," He Xian'er said, not caring whether her clothes would get dirty, and sat down on the ground to start digging.

He Xian'er was strong; with each swing of her sickle, dirt flew everywhere. Wang Qing assisted her, occasionally using his hands to loosen the soil.

After digging for a while, three ginseng roots were finally revealed, one large and two small.

After digging them all out, Wang Qing was overjoyed. "Xian'er, these ginseng roots must fetch a lot of money, right?"

He Xian'er looked at them; the last one she sold for 5000 yuan, these three should probably be around 500 yuan each.

"Third cousin, I estimate it's around 500 yuan. This ginseng isn't very old."

"500 yuan? Is that much?" Three people in the family work, and at the end of the year they can get about 300 yuan. How can they suddenly have 500 yuan?

Wang Qing found it unbelievable; his cousin was incredibly lucky.

Carefully dig out all the ginseng, put it in a basket, and cover it with a wild vegetable to prevent it from being seen by others.

This trip has been very fruitful; it's time to go home.

Miao Cuihua had been waiting at the door for quite some time; she was somewhat worried about Wang Qing's health.

Upon seeing the two return, Wang Qing's face showed no unusual expression; in fact, he appeared quite pleased.

"Ah Qing, did something good happen to you?" Miao Cuihua asked, puzzled.

Wang Qing closed the door and pulled Miao Cuihua into the house.

"Mom, we found wild ginseng today!"

Wang Qing dragged the basket that was lying on the ground over, removed the wild vegetables, revealing three intact ginseng roots underneath.

"You...you went deep into the mountains?" Miao Cuihua pulled the two of them over and checked them over from head to toe. Seeing that there was no injury except for some dirt on their clothes, she was relieved.

"Aunt, we didn't go deep into the mountains; we found these at the foot of the mountain!"

Wang Qing chimed in, "Xian'er found it, and then we dug it together."

Miao Cuihua then smiled happily, but then she seemed to remember something, "Did no one see you digging?"

"No!" Wang Qing and He Xian'er answered in unison.

"That's great! That's wonderful news. We should celebrate! Let's cook something delicious tonight."

"Let's help too!"

The three of them worked together to make sow thistle with sauce, stir-fried lettuce with cured pork, and egg drop soup.

In the evening, the three members of the Wang family, father and sons, were stunned by the news when they returned home from work.

Are wild ginseng really that easy to find these days?

“Since Xian’er discovered this ginseng, all the money from its sale should go to Xian’er,” Wang Zhigang said without thinking.

The three brothers, Wang Peng, Wang Zhi, and Wang Qing, also showed expressions of agreement, as if that were the correct way to do it.

Miao Cuihua did not object, but you could see the conflict in her eyes.

"Uncle, Aunt, no matter how much it costs, I only want 100 yuan, I don't want anything else."

He Xian'er is quite wealthy herself and doesn't lack money at all, especially since this place is two hours away from the village.

The money is simply not going to be spent; the Wang family probably needs it more than she does.

“That won’t do!” All five people present objected.

"I don't care if it's okay or not, I just want 100 yuan. If you give me more, I'll give the rest away!"

He Xian'er is being a bit shameless. I'm being shameless, see if you want it or not.

The Wang family knew that He Xian'er had deliberately given these things to them, and they were very touched, silently remembering her kindness.
