Chapter 116 - Lucky Charm
Lin Jing saw that Su Wan was excitedly looking around the valley like she had found something really incredible , he couldn"t really tell why exactly Su Wan was so happy seeing these flowers that had served no purpose other than looking good and smelling sweet but , Lin Jing knew that his wife was always filled with fascinating ideas , so he had thought about it a little then hesitantly asked what was in his mind " Wan Wan , do you have an idea how to make use of? these flowers ?"
" Of course I have ideas , millions of them " said Su Wan excitedly even though her ideas were useless in the modern world , she was sure that the second she launched her products in this world , she will be able to earn a lot ! Right now , Su Wan wasn"t looking at the flowers she was actually looking at her money plants ! Aiye , with these little babies , she would surely hit a jackpot !
Su Wan scuttled over to the roses , then carefully snipped the flowers and filled her basket - though she didn"t dare to snip more , if possible she would have loved to do so but in the end? , she thought that if she really took a lot of flowers at the same time she wouldn"t be able to extract that much essential oils in one go !
Su Wan carefully filled half of her bucket with roses , lilies and mock oranges before long her eyes fell on something green and red , her eyes widened and she shrieked in delight !
Lin Jing who was carefully keeping an eye on her jumped and hurriedly rushed towards her "
What - what is wrong ?"
But his question was left unanswered as Su Wan hurriedly darted past the mock orange plant and rushed at the green chillies that were slowly turning red - this , this was what she had wanted for so long ! True the food here was much more organic but the spices were a big no - no , Things like chillies were hard to get ! Su Wan was so happy that she nearly cried - ah finally she can eat kung pao chicken , Hoisin Pork Ribs, Pepper Steak and her favourite hot pot !!
Finally , her day has come ! Su Wan hurriedly took bunch of chillies and filled them in her basket , Lin Jing saw that Su Wan seemed to be? having the time of her life and left her to it , instead he took out some ropes and went inside some bushes and hedges , if they were going to stay here for long then he might as well hunt some game for them to eat tonight . Though their family was eating meat every night , Lin Jing was a bit annoyed and ashamed since the meat came from his second brother"s hard earned money , it made him feel useless - Lin Jing wasn"t business material and he had no aesthetic taste like Lin Yu , he was uneducated and couldn"t become an official either - as the oldest he also couldn"t act shamelessly like Lin Chen , in the end he wanted to do something to get his lost pride back - he knew that Su Wan didn"t care whether or how much he earned but Lin Jing still had his pride as the elder brother and couldn"t just sit at home all day can he ?
After tying the traps , he picked his axe and started chopping wood for the table since he had brought a lot of down yesterday , he didn"t need to chop more - only a little for the top of the table .
Su Wan could hear the chop chop of axe hitting the tree and she a.s.suredly walked a little further in the valley , since the trees of the cliff were old wood ears were growing upon them , Su Wan used her own little knife that she had brought and picked the wood ears - a little farther away she could hear the trickling of water stream but it sounded distant , she was certain that if she walked away to the stream , Lin Jing might get angry - she didn"t fear his anger , she feared that he might bar her from coming back here , so she hesitated for a while before returning back with her loot .
Lin Jing was still chopping wood and as she still had a little time to look around , Su Wan walked around when her eyes fell on a really weird plant - on top of the plant was a cl.u.s.ter of compound leaves and at its bottom were smaller oval shaped leaves - she had a feeling that it was a little familiar , so she crouched down and with her small knife she started to carefully dug around the plant and before long a stalk that was had developed into a human shaped came out of the ground - Su Wan could no longer think anything , she looked at the almost thirty centimetres long ginseng and felt her mind buzz . She was no expert but she knew that this ginseng must be a hundred years old - her hands shook as she clutched on the ginseng - this was it , her real jackpot ! She really lucked out coming here !
Lin Jing finished chopping the wood and when he turned to look at Su Wan he found that his wife was squatting on the ground trembling - afraid that she might have caught or seen something dangerous he rushed forward , his axe clutched in his hands but when he reached Su Wan he saw that his wife"s face was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with excitement as she clutched on a human shaped root - Lin Jing was stumped , he looked at the ginseng and felt like a fool , he had been coming here for years but he never found a ginseng nor did he thought that he will ever find such a thing in here but now as he watched his wife , clutching the ginseng , he only had one thought in mind " Wan Wan - you really are - our family"s lucky star " . The villagers including him came and went down this forest three sixty five days but the one who found this ginseng was his wife ! How can she be not lucky ?
And if he was speaking the truth , he too truly lucked out by marrying her !
