Chapter 46 Ginseng

Chapter 46 Ginseng

"Thank you, Sister Qingqing. I'll leave now. Goodbye, Sister Qingqing."

After bidding farewell to Li Qingqing, Song Xi walked quickly towards Zhou Yi, and then they went to the hospital together.

Zhou Yi had agreed with Song Xi last night that he would come to the commune today to review her body. After all, she had suffered so much before.

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

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

Curious, she opened the bag a small opening and smelled the aroma of bacon.

Li Qingqing swallowed her saliva subconsciously.

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

A person who is extremely hungry can do anything.

Li Qingqing waited until lunch time after getting off work at noon, then hurriedly carried the cloth bag home.

When I got home, I checked the contents of the cloth bag with my family.

There were about ten kilograms of dried mushrooms, two pieces of bacon weighing one kilogram, and a cured duck weighing six or seven kilograms.

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

Thinking of Song Xi's weak body carrying such a heavy thing for her, Li Qingqing felt a warm feeling in her heart.

None of the little sisters around her can do this!

Song Xi, who can now lift fifty kilograms of things, said that weighing more than twenty kilograms is just a piece of cake!

Smelling the aroma of bacon and duck, Mother Li was almost drooling, but her rationality was still there, "Qingqing, where did you come from these things? You were not outside..."

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

"Okay, okay, okay, I understand. If people are so kind to you, then you should also be kind to others in the future. After all, you have never met a friend who is so true to you in your life."

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 always competing with each other. They don't even like her, and Li Qingqing doesn't like them even more.

After Song Xi finished the examination, she couldn't help but feel excited when she heard the doctor said that she didn't need to come to the hospital for further examination unless she felt unwell.

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

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

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

In this era, jobs are all based on succession, and not many people are willing to sell their jobs.

Moreover, the original owner, Xiao Song Xi, was just a child who graduated from junior high school. She was not registered in the city and had not studied much. She could not find a job at all.

Besides, she carries the supermarket with her, so if she really does find a job in the city, it will be easy for her to be exposed and get into trouble.

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

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

Let's see if she can stop going to work and she won't be short of money.

"Daughter-in-law, please sit here and rest for a while. I will 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 found was in the shade of the hospital. Even on a hot noon day, there was a hint of coolness here.

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

When she saw Zhou Yi's figure disappearing from the hospital building, she got up and walked over there.

She came to the nurse's desk. The nurse should have gone to eat after changing her shift. 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, may I ask where the dean's office is? I want to ask the dean about something."

When the little nurse saw a handful of White Rabbit toffee, her eyes lit up.

No one has a lot of tickets, so 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. There is a sign on the door."

"Okay, I understand, thank you, comrade." Song Xi thanked her and 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 he went out, and she didn't know how anxious that person would be.

Song Xi came to the door of the dean's office on the third floor.

After tidying up her clothes and touching her hair to make sure there was nothing misunderstanding, she raised her 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 grandfather in his fifties or sixties, but he is very energetic, has neat short hair, and has a calm temperament.

After all, being able to climb from the position of doctor to dean shows that this dean is by no means an ordinary person.

Looking at the little girl walking in front of him, the dean didn't look at her very sharply, as if he was afraid of scaring her.

"Hello, dean, I am a patient who came to the hospital for a physical examination. I came to see the dean today because I have something to ask the dean."

Song Xi took out a fifty-year-old ginseng plant from the bag and placed it on the dean's desk, making a look of reluctance to part with it, "My family has spent all the money on treating me during this period.

I have saved up. This is the ginseng my grandpa left for me before he passed away. I would like to ask the dean to help me find out how much money I can exchange for this ginseng. I don’t understand these things and I am afraid that I will be cheated when I go out."

As for this ‘grandpa’, I’m certainly not talking about little ‘Song Xi’s’ grandfather.

How old is little 'Song Xi'? How could her grandfather pass away?

It's just that having this grandpa is the same as not having him. It doesn't mean everyone is allowed to bully little 'Song Xi'.

The 'grandpa' in Song Xi's mouth was of course referring to the modern and kind grandfather who was kind to her.

After Song Xi finished speaking, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. His eye sockets and the tip of his nose instantly turned red. Who wouldn't feel distressed after seeing that pitiful look?

In fact, selling ginseng was an impromptu idea. After all, she came to the commune with Zhou Yi and she couldn't go to the night market or expose herself to the supermarket. But she had already come, so she couldn't return without success, right?

Wouldn't it be a waste of time?

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

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

"Yes, my family has been unable to open the pot. The whole family is about to starve to death. If it weren't for my illness, our family would not have reached this point..."

Song Xi nodded lightly, and then took out a century-old ginseng plant from the cloth bag, "I still have a ginseng plant here. If the dean has a friend who wants to change it, that's fine, so I don't have to go out like a headless fly."

Just like looking for people everywhere, if I meet a liar, I will lose more than I gain."
