Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1729: Chapter 1665: One Act After Another

She pulled out another small ginseng, cut it in half, roasted it a bit, wrapped it in cloth, and placed it in the small bamboo basket before quickly flashing out of the space.

Chen Baoshen was getting a bit anxious. Seeing Chiang Xiao coming in with a small bamboo basket, he was overjoyed and sprang up, saying, ”Xiao Chiang, do you have the medicine?”

”Yes, Grandpa Chen, luckily, I just rummaged a bit and found quite a few medicines that I dug from Bai Gu Mountain before, which I brought along with my luggage.”

”Great, great, that’s wonderful!” Chen Baoshen was ecstatic, grabbing the small bamboo basket and ready to run off.

Seeing his urgency, Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but call out, ”Grandpa Chen, don’t you want to check it first?”

Chen Baoshen was indeed in a hurry, ”No need, no need, can I not trust you, girl? I’m pressed for time, I’ll leave now, girl, and I’ll have the Jiang Family bring the money to pay you back later.”

”Okay.”

Chiang Xiao didn’t stand on ceremony either.

Even if Chen Baoshen went to treat Old Master Jiang himself, he would probably still charge a consultation fee, right?

For such a prestigious family like the Jiang Family, how could they be short on consultation fees and medicine costs?

”Alright, I’m leaving.”

Chen Baoshen hurriedly left with the medicine basket.

Chiang Xiao closed the door, let out a long breath, and once Chen Baoshen left, she felt her earlier decision was the right one. At least her heart felt at ease now.

Ah Liu sat outside the kitchen door looking at her, with a slight smile.

He wasn’t wrong about his daughter; her heart was genuinely kind.

”Oh, Dad!” Chiang Xiao suddenly exclaimed, ”I forgot to have Grandpa Chen check on you!”

Chen Baoshen certainly was too hasty!

Ah Liu was calm and unhurried, ”No rush, next time, I’m fine for now. His matter is more urgent.” He felt much better now, and since coming to the Capital City, he’d been feeling increasingly better. Ah Liu believed he would recover soon. ”But, Little, how come you have so many herbs?”

”Dad, didn’t I tell you before? These are all from Bai Gu Mountain that I dug before. Grandpa taught me to recognize herbs, as did my grand uncle and cousin-in-law; I often went up the mountain with them. Bai Gu Mountain really is an abundant treasure trove, with lots of valuable herbs. I even dug up a hundred-year ginseng and Lingzhi there.”

Speaking of Bai Gu Mountain, Chiang Xiao felt a bit nostalgic. By now, Bai Gu Mountain should be brimming with wild creatures and herbs again, right?

Even though her storage shelves in the space still housed many wild goods, she truly enjoyed the process of going up the mountain.

”Bai Gu Mountain, is it really that great?” Ah Liu’s eyes slightly gazed into the distance, ”Then when there’s a chance, you must take me to see Bai Gu Mountain.”

Chiang Xiao nodded her head, ”Alright.”

These days, the Capital City has really been one sensational drama after another.

After Kuang Qingqing and Lee Wenwei were shamelessly exposed in the newspapers, yet another scandal quickly erupted. Kuang Qingqing physically assaulted Chen Zhu, whose identity at home was already awkward and ambiguous, causing many glass shards to pierce her face, nearly disfiguring her.

What was even more shocking and bewildering was that Kuang Qingqing’s brother actually reported it to the police himself, seeking revenge, as if for the woman whose identity no one knew.

Xiao Fang was utterly exhausted, feeling like she was about to go crazy.

In the end, she could only try to coax Chen Zhu, hoping she would tell the police to reconcile.

But Chen Zhu, after seeing her own facial injuries, broke down and refused to reconcile in any way. Wang Guoming stood by her, insisting that Kuang Qingqing must be taught a lesson, so she wouldn’t dare to act recklessly again in the future.
