Chapter 46 Ginseng

   "Thank you Sister Qingqing, then I'll go first, see you Sister Qingqing."

  Farewell to Li Qingqing, Song Xi walked quickly towards Zhou Yi, and then the two went to the hospital together.

  Zhou Yi made an agreement with Song Xi last night that he will come to the commune today to give her a physical reexamination, after all, he suffered such a big crime before.

   After Song Xi left, Li Qingqing planned to put the cloth bag under the counter and take it home after get off work.

   As a result, she didn't lift one hand because it was too heavy.

  Curiously, she opened the cloth bag a little, and smelled the aroma of bacon.

  Li Qingqing swallowed subconsciously.

   No wonder Song Xi asked her to go home and open it again. What if it was opened outside and someone robbed it?

  The person who is hungry to the limit can do everything.

  Li Qingqing waited until noon to get off work for lunch, and hurried home with a cloth bag on her shoulders.

  Go home and check the contents of the cloth bag with your family.

   There are about ten catties of dried mushrooms, two pieces of bacon weighing one catty, and one cured duck weighing six to seven catties.

   She didn't know how Song Xi could lift such a heavy thing.

  Thinking of Song Xi's frail body carrying such a heavy load for her, Li Qingqing's heart felt warm.

   None of the little sisters around her can do this!

  Song Xi, who can now lift fifty catties, said that twenty catties is nothing more than a piece of cake!

   Smelling the smell of bacon and duck, Li's mother was about to drool, but her rationality was still there, "Qingqing, where did you get these things? You weren't outside..."

   "Mom!" Li Qingqing looked at Li's mother helplessly, "This is a gift from my new friend. She is a very good girl, not the messy thing you think."

   "Okay, okay, okay, I see, if people treat you so well, then you will treat them better in the future. After all, you have grown up so much, and you have never met a friend who is so true to you."

  Mother Li is very happy that her daughter can make sincere and good friends.

  The girls around here who are about the same age as Li Qingqing are comparing each other all day long. They don't even like her, and Li Qingqing doesn't like it even more.

   After finishing the examination, Song Xi couldn't help jumping up when he heard the doctor say that unless he felt unwell, he didn't need to come to the hospital for an examination.

  She has finally regained her health, and she will be free from now on, and she can go wherever she wants.

  But when she thought that she was going to work when she recovered, her joy disappeared immediately, and her whole body was shrouded in dark clouds.

  She has money, tickets, and a big supermarket. Does she still need to work hard to earn work points?

  Jobs in this era are based on a succession system, and few people are willing to sell their jobs.

   Besides, the original owner, Xiao'Song Xi', is just a child who graduated from junior high school, not registered in the city, and has not studied much, so he can't find a job at all.

  Besides, she carries the supermarket with her everywhere. If she really finds a job in the city, she will easily reveal her secrets and cause accidents.

  For Song Xi, it is safer to hide in the mountains.

  Thinking of this, she sighed, now she can only take one step at a time.

  See if she can stop working at that time, and she is not short of money.

   "Daughter-in-law, sit here and rest for a while, I'll be back soon."

  Zhou Yi placed Song Xi on a chair in a corner of the hospital to rest, then turned and ran towards the hospital building.

   The place Zhou Yi was looking for was in the shade of the hospital. Even in the hot noon, there is still a little bit of coolness here.

   It is indeed a suitable place to rest, but Song Xi is not in the mood to rest now.

  Seeing Zhou Yi's figure disappearing into the hospital building, she also got up and walked over there.

  She came to the nurse's desk. The nurses should have gone to eat after changing shifts. At this time, there was only one nurse sitting there.

  Song Xi grabbed a handful of white rabbit toffee and handed it over, and asked in a low voice, "Comrade, where is the dean's office? I'll ask the dean for some advice."

  The little nurse saw a handful of white rabbit toffee, and her eyes lit up.

  No one has many tickets. Even if she has a salary, it is difficult for her to buy white rabbit toffee.

  She quickly grabbed the white rabbit toffee and hid it in her pocket, "The dean's office is on the third floor, and there is a sign on the door."

   "Okay, I see, thank you comrade." After Song Xi thanked, he hurried to the stairs.

  She wanted to deal with the matter as soon as possible, otherwise Zhou Yi would not be able to see her when she went out, and she wondered how anxious that person would be.

  Song Xi came outside the dean's office on the third floor.

   After tidying up his clothes, he stroked his hair again to confirm that there was nothing misleading, and then he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

   Hearing the voice of "please come in" from inside, he gently opened the door and walked in.

   "Who are you?" The dean is a grandpa in his fifties or sixties, but he is very energetic, with neat short hair and a calm demeanor.

   After all, being able to climb from the doctor to the position of the dean shows that this dean is definitely not an idle person.

  Looking at the little girl who walked in front of him, the dean didn't look at her with that very sharp eyes, as if he was afraid of scaring her.

   "Dean, hello, I am a patient who came to the hospital for a physical examination. I came to see the dean today because I have something I want to consult with the dean."

Song Xi took out a 50-year-old ginseng plant from the cloth bag, put it on the dean's desk, and made a look of reluctance, "During this time, my family has spent all my medical treatment. I have saved up, this is the ginseng left to me by my grandfather before he passed away, I want to ask the dean to help me find out how much this ginseng can be exchanged for, I don’t know these things, and I am afraid that I will be cheated when I go out.”

  As for the 'grandpa', of course it wasn't the little 'Song Xi''s grandfather.

  Little 'Song Xi' is only so old, how could her grandfather pass away.

   It's just that having this grandfather is the same as not having this grandfather, and it's not like allowing everyone to bully little 'Song Xi'.

  The 'grandpa' Song Xi spoke of was of course the kindly grandfather who treated her well in modern times.

  After Song Xi finished speaking, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, the sockets of his eyes and the tip of his nose turned red in an instant, who wouldn't feel bad for seeing that pitiful look?

   In fact, selling ginseng was a temporary idea. After all, she came to the commune with Zhou Yi. She couldn't go to the night market, and she couldn't expose the supermarket.

   Wouldn’t this trip be in vain?

   "Little girl, what do you mean, you want to exchange ginseng for money tickets?"

  Hearing the little girl in front of him, the dean felt pity in his heart, and he confirmed it again in disbelief.

   "Yes, my family can't get rid of the pot anymore, and the whole family will starve to death. If it wasn't because of my illness, the family would not have come to this point..."

Song Xi nodded slightly, and then took out a century-old ginseng plant from the cloth bag, "I still have a ginseng plant here, if the dean has friends who want to change it, then I don't have to go out like a headless chicken." It’s the same as looking for someone everywhere, if I meet a liar, I will lose more than I gain.”
