Chapter 25 A Surprise for You
For breakfast, Xiao Nan cooked a pot of meat porridge and also prepared meals for the two little ones.
The old woman's eyes flickered when she saw it, but she didn't say anything.
Honestly, doesn't it hurt your heart? Yes, it does!
Having grown accustomed to a life of hardship and frugality, she didn't say anything because Xiao Nan had never spent a single penny of her money.
She can spend her money however she wants; she has no right to interfere.
The two of them are still just living together out of convenience, and Xiao Nan has never mentioned wanting to acknowledge her as anything.
Therefore, she had no reason to care.
Moreover, the house was built by Xiao Nan, and the furniture was all bought with her own money.
With a nice house to live in and delicious food to eat, what more could she want?
The villagers all thought that Granny Wang was easy to bully, not because she was weak, but because she was clever.
So Xiao Nan doesn't shy away from sharing anything new with her, as long as it's not excessive.
For example, this morning, there was a plate of tofu with scallions. The scallions were so green and fresh that even in the town, you couldn't find anything like them, let alone in the village, but she didn't ask.
And that plate of cucumber salad—she'd never even seen it before.
No matter where Xiao Nan got it from, as long as she treats me well, that's fine. The girl can say what she wants to say or not.
The older generation says that a big heart leads to a long life.
Before, she longed to grow old and die quickly so she could rest in peace with her husband in the afterlife. But now, with this girl by her side, she hopes to live to a ripe old age and yearns for peace and tranquility so she can go out into the world with her daughter and broaden her horizons.
Xiao Nan smiled as he watched her staring blankly at the dishes on the table.
"Grandma, eat!"
“Ah, ah,”
Granny Wang came to her senses, smiled at Xiao Nan, picked up the bowl and drank the well-cooked meat porridge, her eyes red-rimmed.
Xiao Nan hummed and said, "Grandma, why do you always cry? When things get better, we should smile more to look younger. Look at you now, you're a bit fatter than before, the wrinkles on your face are almost gone, and your hair is shiny. You look ten years younger. If you dress up properly, you won't look thirty."
The old woman was amused by her words: "It's not that exaggerated."
"It's true. I'm going to town to take care of some things in a little while. Please stay home and look after the house. I'll be back soon. Don't go out while I'm away."
"Yes, I'll listen to you."
Xiao Nan smiled and nodded. After the meal, the old lady quickly went to wash the dishes. She had been eating and sleeping well lately, and her body seemed to have inexhaustible energy.
Xiao Nan didn't try to take it from her. He fed the two dogs, then carried the large basket on his back and left through the back door.
It was noon when we arrived in town.
Manager Liu was anxiously waiting, but he was relieved when he saw the person arrive.
Xiao Nan put down the basket he was carrying and then the basket on his back, looking quite out of breath.
He then pointed to two baskets and said, "My stock is all here. Don't come looking for it again for a year."
"Don't worry, don't worry, I know it's not easy for you to gather herbs, and they're not everywhere on the mountain."
"Good to know, I'll weigh these for now."
Manager Liu asked the shop assistant to weigh the ingredients, and then asked with a smile, "And what about the ginseng?"
Xiao Nan took a cloth bag from his pocket and placed it on the counter: "Here's what you wanted. Check the goods."
The shopkeeper excitedly rubbed his hands together as he opened the package. When he saw the ginseng, his eyes lit up, and he examined it carefully again and again.
“Brother Nan, this ginseng is at least 120 years old. Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll give you 1,200 taels.”
Xiao Nan smiled. The shopkeeper is really good; she's made a good friend.
"Well, since you're honest, I'll take the ten taels of silver."
"Haha, no, I must keep my promise, this silver must be given."
As they were talking, the waiter weighed out the herbs: ten kinds of herbs, totaling sixteen ounces.
Manager Liu gave Xiao Nan 1,230 taels of silver. Xiao Nan clicked his tongue and his mood instantly brightened.
It's not about giving too much; it's about how Manager Liu makes people feel comfortable and satisfied, and that's what she likes.
Then he took out a few more cloth bags from his pocket: "Here, shopkeeper, I'll give you a surprise. Check the goods and name your price."
Shopkeeper Liu glanced at her and asked somewhat uncertainly, "Medicine?"
"It's definitely not an old woman, let's open it and see."
"Haha, I already have a wife, and I wouldn't want any old women."
He froze after opening the first package, his hands trembling: "Another century-old ginseng?"
"look carefully."
The shopkeeper held the ginseng in his hand, examined it for a while, and then said definitively, "One hundred and fifteen years old!"
"Wow, I didn't expect you to have so many good things."
"You're lucky. I think you're a nice person, so I'll sell it to you as well. If you want it again, it'll really be gone."
Shopkeeper Liu swallowed hard, carefully wrapped the ginseng, set it aside, and then opened another cloth bag.
When an enormous ginseng root appeared, someone exclaimed, "My goodness, what is this?"
"Check it?"
He quickly glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention.
He quickly took the ginseng in his hand and examined it carefully: "Five hundred years old, no mistake."
"There's one last one, shall we take another look?"
At this moment, his hands began to tremble, and he asked curiously, "It's not a thousand-year-old ginseng, is it?"
Xiao Nan just smiled and didn't say anything.
When he opened it, he saw the shopkeeper gasp: "Lingzhi, and it's black Lingzhi, the most precious and rarest kind of Lingzhi."
"Check the year."
At this moment, the shopkeeper quickly wrapped the cloth bag up and hugged it to his chest, whispering something.
"Let's go inside and talk. This place is too conspicuous. If people find out, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect them."
Xiao Nan followed him inside with a smile. He opened each cloth bag one by one, examined them closely, and finally held the black Ganoderma lucidum, took a deep breath, and said, "This Ganoderma lucidum is not only rare, but also quite old, six hundred years old. Wow, you're going to make a fortune!"
Name your price, and I'll trust you.
Manager Liu's expression turned serious. He pointed to the 150-year-old ginseng and said, "1,500 taels. I can't give you a high price for this 500-year-old one because it's not a thousand years old. I can only give you 3,000 taels. If it were a thousand years old, it could sell for 10,000 taels."
"Hmm, let's talk about Ganoderma lucidum."
"This?" Manager Liu hesitated before saying, "Ten thousand taels. Lingzhi is not as expensive as ginseng, but black lingzhi is different. There are very few of this age. What do you think?"
"make a deal!"
Manager Liu turned and went to the backyard. He returned shortly afterward with a stack of silver notes and gave them to Xiao Nan.
"I don't have that much cash, how about I give you silver notes?"
"In this world, are banknotes still valid?"
"It works, don't worry. Even if the dynasty changes, these banknotes won't change."
"Why?"
Manager Liu gave a cold laugh: "Because, no powerful family in the entire Dragon Kingdom has their money in a bank. If the banknotes don't count, then their money will go down the drain."
Xiao Nan took the medicine, counted it, and nodded. "Hmm, the number is just right. Don't ask me for medicine again within two years. If I get any new medicine, I'll come to you. Oh, and please get me a few more doses of the medicine I prescribed last time."
"Okay, here's the tonic for you, it's free."
Xiao Nan put the silver notes into his pocket, while Manager Liu took away several precious medicinal herbs and didn't return for a while.
He personally prepared the medicine for Xiao Nan, smiling as he saw him off at the door, still somewhat reluctant to part.
"Brother Nan, come and sit down for a while when you have time."
"Ah."
Xiao Nan put the baskets together, carried them on his back, and went to buy things.
Today she plans to buy some needles and thread. The old lady is almost out of thread and her needles are rusty. She also wants to buy a bronze mirror from this place.
Finally, buy some flower pots to grow some flowers, plants, and vegetables.
She always went to the grocery store to buy things and never bargained. The shop assistants all knew her and were overjoyed to see Xiao Nan.
"Young man, what are you looking to buy this time?"
"Do you have a needle and thread?"
"Yes, yes, we're a general store, we sell everything."
