Chapter 44 This is outrageous!

Knowing that Grandpa Xu said this deliberately because he wanted to save himself money, Lin Miao quit and muttered while holding the cloth bag,

"Don't you even ask me what I'm getting? Are your consultation fees too outrageous?"

"You girl..."

Xu Changsheng couldn't laugh or cry for a while when he heard her words that were obviously complaining. Finally he had to compromise and said,

"Okay, then you open it and let me see what it is that makes you so precious."

"Hehe... take a look, it's definitely a good thing!"

Lin Miao immediately beamed with joy and put the cloth bag in front of Grandpa Xu as she spoke.

The cloth bag was opened to reveal the oil paper bag inside, with a layer of wet turf underneath.

The moment he saw this thing, Mr. Xu's eyes suddenly shrank, and he subconsciously looked up at Lin Miao.

Seeing that she was still urging him with a smile, he took a deep breath and reached out to lift the turf——

When he saw clearly what was wrapped inside, Mr. Xu suddenly took a breath of cold air.

He covered the turf again with gentle hands and looked at Lin Miao with a complicated expression.

"Miao girl, where did your ginseng come from?"

"Just now I chased a pheasant into the mountains and found it in a mountain col. Grandpa Xu, what do you think of this ginseng? Is it in good condition? I spent a lot of effort digging it out.

!”

Lin Miao looked at Mr. Xu with a smile, as if begging for praise.

"Did you just dig it?!"

Mr. Xu had a trace of doubt on his face.

He is not confused. Digging ginseng is always a very laborious and skillful job.

Besides, the ginseng that Miss Miao brought is definitely over a hundred years old, and its roots are extremely developed. Even experienced ginseng pickers may not be able to achieve such perfection.

But this ginseng has done it. This is definitely not something a novice can accomplish!

Seeing the doubt in Grandpa Xu's eyes, Lin Miao's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Too bad!

She was only thinking about giving a better gift to Grandpa Xu, but she ignored that century-old ginseng is not that easy to dig!

Now Grandpa Xu has obviously doubted her, how can she explain?

But now that the matter had come to this, she had no choice but to bear it down, so she nodded and said,

"Yeah, you don't believe it, do you? In fact, I didn't expect it myself. I read in the book before that it was quite difficult. What other tools are needed, such as red ropes and so on.

But in actual operation, I found that it is not as mysterious as what is written in the book, and ginseng can run away and so on... I would say it is just a little more gentle and careful.

You see, I don’t have any tools, so I dug out the ginseng anyway, it seems pretty simple!”

Mr. Xu: "..." This is outrageous!

You can dig out a complete century-old ginseng by reading a book, which is embarrassing for those who have been collecting ginseng for generations!

But looking at the way she wrapped the ginseng, it really didn't look like it was done by an outsider.

I knew before that this girl was good at studying and loved reading. Did Bao Buqi really read about it in a book and did it in one go?

You must know that there is indeed an element of luck involved in digging ginseng.

Seeing that Grandpa Xu was shaken, Lin Miao hurriedly continued to increase the amount,

"If you don't believe it, take a closer look. There is still mud between my nails!"

After saying that, he stretched out his hand in front of Mr. Xu.

I was so focused on taking her pulse that I didn't pay attention to it. Now when I looked closely, I could see that there was some residual soil between the girl's fingernails.

This time he had to believe it even if he didn’t believe it, so he stretched out his hand and tapped Lin Miao and said,

"You girl, it seems that your fortune has turned out well. I have never encountered ginseng of such good quality in all these years of collecting medicinal herbs in the mountains. Today, it's just you, girl?"

What you just said is right. Using this ginseng to offset my consultation fee is indeed a big loss. If you take this ginseng to the market, you should be able to sell it for 3,000 yuan, so Grandpa Xu will give you 4,000 yuan..."

"no!"

Before Mr. Xu could even quote the price, Lin Miao decisively interrupted him.

Xu Changsheng thought she was dissatisfied with the price, so he had the patience to explain.

"Girl Miao, although century-old wild ginseng can be found but cannot be found, and the price can be higher if you find someone who knows the quality, but..."

"Grandpa Xu, please stop talking, I won't sell this ginseng!" Lin Miao's tone was very firm.

"Not selling? But the situation of your home..."

Mr. Xu frowned slightly when he heard this, but seemed to have thought of something, and shook his head again,

"Girl Miao, although this ginseng is good, it can't cure your dad's leg. It's not symptomatic!"

Seeing that Grandpa Xu was looking annoyed, Lin Miao didn't dare to talk in circles anymore. She shook her head with a smile and said,

"Grandpa Xu, I have read some medical books myself and know that this ginseng cannot cure my father's leg. The reason why I said that this ginseng will not be worth the cost of the medicine and will not be sold is because I want to give this ginseng to you!"

"What?!"

Mr. Xu looked shocked. He was even afraid that he had heard wrongly, so he picked his ears hard.

This was the first time Lin Miao saw him showing this look, and she couldn't help but smile and repeat,

"You heard it right! I said I want to give this ginseng to you!"

After hearing this, Mr. Xu immediately waved his hand,

"That can't be done! It can't be done! This is too expensive, I can't have it. Don't you girl have to help your family pay off the debt? With this ginseng, you can still have a lot left after paying off the debt, and your family can completely

Turned over."

Although he said this, the eyes he looked at ginseng from time to time were full of reluctance.

When Lin Miao saw him like this, he knew there was something going on and immediately pursued the victory.

"Grandpa Xu, don't reject me in a hurry. Listen to what I have to say. I didn't give you this ginseng for free!"

"Oh? Then tell me. If it's not embarrassing, then I'll take it."

When Mr. Xu heard what she said, he became interested. After all, this ginseng was indeed rare.

Lin Miao immediately approached with a smile and said with a smile,

"Grandpa Xu, you also said that this thing is something that can only be found but not sought. Instead of exchanging it for money to relieve myself for a while, I might as well use it to exchange myself for a new skill. Do you think this is the truth?"

After hearing this, Mr. Xu's expression suddenly changed and he refused without thinking.

"You girl, you want to study medicine with me? Impossible! I will never accept a disciple in my life!"

Lin Miao didn't expect Grandpa Xu to have such a big reaction. She was stunned immediately and stood there and forgot to react for a while.

Mr. Xu also realized that his reaction had frightened her a little. He took a deep breath to calm down his emotions, and then said as slowly as possible,

"Miao Yatou, this matter is not your problem, it is Grandpa Xu's own problem. Grandpa Xu's medical skills are passed down from his family. He swore an oath when he first started, and he will never pass it on to others, so I still hope that you will

That’s understandable.”
