Chapter 10 Lucky

Mr. Xie knew nothing about it. Although the second son was not likable, he was thoughtful and delicate in handling things, which was not comparable to the other two sons.

"Don't worry, even with your mother, I won't say much for the time being."

In fact, Xie Xiuwen had already agreed with the private school that he would leave after the end of this month, but he still had to save it.

As for the so-called secrecy between father and mother, it can be kept a secret for ten or eight days.

It was almost the end of the month, and by the time his mother found out, he should have gone to Fucheng, but he had to settle the house properly so that his wife and daughter would not be treated harshly by the family again.

Xie Rongzhao got dressed in the morning, and went to ask Father about going up the mountain today.

Xie Rongzhao was full of confidence, she didn't believe that Xie Rongrong could dig the Ganoderma lucidum, but she couldn't!

Seeing that Xie Rongzhao went to the front yard, Xie Rongrong opened the door and went in, and ran directly to the old table by the window.

This old desk was repaired by Xie Xiuwen's childhood desk and used by Xie Rongzhao. It was very old, and the paint on it could not see its true color. Although it was worthless, it carried his father's childhood on it, so Xie Rongzhao always like very much.

Xie Rongrong searched for a long time, but couldn't find the jewelry she had lost. Feeling unwilling, she thought about going to her bed to look again.

Xie Rongzhao's room was very small, it was the utility room of his former home, and the windows were also very small. Xie Rongzhao's bed was also replaced by the former long room. As soon as Xie Rongrong helped him onto the bed, there was a creaking sound.

After all, it was a guilty conscience, Xie Rongrong was frightened by the sound, and after scolding bad luck, she was thinking to continue, when she heard voices from outside, she had no choice but to back out immediately.

It's just that Xie Rongrong didn't have time to lock the door because of the rush of time.

When Xie Rongzhao came back, he saw that the door was slightly closed and the lock was open, so he knew it.

Sure enough, there were traces of being searched and picked up in the house.

Xie Rongzhao quietly took the twisted wet kerchief, wiped his makeup box inside and out, and then wiped the tabletop and window lattice to make sure it was clean and free of traces.

Xie Rongzhao finished all of this, then went to the corner to get his small shovel and her own small back basket, and went up the mountain with Dad.

Xie Rongzhao didn't forget to take out the money box he had hidden earlier, and wanted to bring it there to show off to his father.

During the Dazhi Dynasty, the control of silver and money was relatively strict. Ordinary people basically had no access to gold and silver. The main currency in circulation was copper coins.This is also one of the main reasons why Xie Xiuran thought of sending his niece to pay off the debt after he wrote a note of 50 taels of silver.

Xie Xiuran wrote silver on the IOU, so he would naturally have to repay the silver. If it was paid off with copper coins, it would depend on whether the owner was willing, and if the debt was paid with copper coins, the other party would have to pay more before he would stop.

The usual money is one thousand Wen, which can be exchanged for one tael of silver. This mainly depends on the price of grain. The exchange of silver and copper coins is generally based on the price of grain and is not fixed.

Ordinary people will use hemp rope or cotton rope to string money, and a hundred cash will be threaded into a string, which is called a sling of money.

"That's right, our Zhaozhao is really capable, and we have saved so much. Is this specially brought for me?"

Xie Rongzhao pushed the money in the direction of Xie Xiuwen in a childlike voice: "Give it to daddy, daddy will study for scientific examinations, and he will become a high official in the future!"

This is the money I have saved for nearly a year!

They are all red envelopes given to me by my grandparents during the New Year's festival, but it is not easy to save them now.

Xie Xiuwen didn't miss the distress in Xie Rongzhao's eyes, he laughed happily.

After all, he is still a child with a sincere heart, but for a five-year-old child, it is quite strenuous to save this hundred coins.

"Okay, okay, our baby is the best! Let's go, Dad will take you up the mountain."

Xie Rongzhao was full of confidence, waving her small fists, and her short legs were throbbing happily, but she was out of breath before going too far from the house.

Without it, my stature is too short, my physical strength is too weak, and my father's steps are too big.

Xie Xiuwen heard his daughter's panting, and then slapped his forehead suddenly: "It's Dad who was careless, come on, Dad will carry you up the mountain."

One big and one small, they walked slowly towards the foot of the mountain.

Occasionally meet a few acquaintances on the road, and it is indispensable to say hello.

Once Xie Rongzhao was alive again, he naturally knew the benefits of being sweet-mouthed. When he saw these relatives and neighbors in the village, he naturally called out sweetly. That soft and cute voice, coupled with his cute smiling face, made the big guys I think this kid is really sensible and well-behaved!

The father and daughter walked around the mountain for more than half an hour, but found nothing. Of course, it was impossible for the two of them to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables. At least they had to get some medicinal materials or hunt a pheasant.

It's a pity, Xie Xiuwen doesn't have hunting skills, and Xie Rongzhao hasn't found a single valuable herb so far, isn't it a little disheartened?

Xie Rongzhao sighed, at such a young age, once he did this sighing gesture, he was actually somewhat cute.As she walked, she wondered why Xie Rongrong was so lucky that she could pick ganoderma right away. Is this really the good luck brought to her by the bracelet?

Xie Rongzhao subconsciously looked at the silver thread bracelet on his wrist, a little suspicious in his heart, if this bracelet really brought good luck, why didn't he pick a ganoderma after going up the mountain for a long time?
Xie Xiuwen was not in a hurry. He took Guaibao up the mountain mainly to relax and let Guaibao forget the unpleasantness as soon as possible. He didn't want Guaibao to be scared and sick again when he left.

The purpose of the two is different, and the mentality is naturally different.

Xie Rongzhao was a little anxious, if there was no money, even if Grandma nodded, she would definitely gossip about it, and even withhold Grandpa's money.She didn't want her father to stop the imperial examination because of lack of money, so she lowered her head and glanced at the small bracelet, then reached over to touch it with her right hand: It's up to you whether you can change your fate or not!
Xie Rongzhao carried a small bamboo basket on his back, and held a relatively small shovel in his hand. This was specially made by Dad for her. It will not be particularly sharp, and it is enough for mowing grass.

"Father, what is this?"

Although Xie Rongzhao had guesses in her heart, she was young after all, so she couldn't even say that she knew the medicinal materials she had never seen before, could she?

Xie Xiuwen took her little hand and walked a few more steps. Most of the farmers here have a certain understanding of common medicinal herbs because they rely on mountains and eat mountains. However, Xie Xiuwen was not sure about this one, so he was careful. Stepping forward, he took out a small knife from the basket, thinking about digging it out to have a look.

Unexpectedly, this time I was really lucky!
What Xie Rongzhao discovered turned out to be a Gastrodia elata!
No, not one plant, but a small piece of Gastrodia elata.
