188 This Guy Was Actually Asking For So Much
Only a rare spiritual medicine like the Longevity Fruit could nourish her grandmother’s body without harming her body.
She needed to add someLongevity Fruit into the antidote every time so that when the poison was removed, it could also ensure her grandmother’s health.
Unfortunately, her research inst.i.tute did not have the Longevity Fruit, so she could only ask the little butler for help.
In the end, this fellow actually asked for 2,000 points directly!
The little butler lectured her seriously, “Master, look at the people you are treating. They are all big shots who can help you earn a lot of points. You don’t lack these 2,000 points. At most, I’ll give you a discount and sell it to you for 1,999 points. How about that?”
Gu Qingxue said expressionlessly, “Get lost.”
The little butler did not give up and continued, “Our system sets a fair price. Besides, this fruit isn’t for other people to use, but for your grandmother. Do you still want to part with it?”
Gu Qingxue could not be bothered with the little butler.
Of course, it was not that she did not want to part with the points. It was just that she did not want to be ripped off by the system.
Besides, if she had asked around before, she might not have been able to find the longevity fruit in the mountains around the great fortune village. If she were lucky enough to find the longevity fruit, she could save two thousand points.
With these 2000 points, she could continue to provide Rong Han with modern medicine to treat his illness. She did not need to make him drink so many bitter medicines all the time.
Rong Han’s cute little face appeared in her mind. Gu Qingxue quickened her pace and walked toward the mountain not far away.
Gu Qingxue searched for seven days.
In seven days, she climbed three mountains but found nothing.
Even she could not help but feel a little depressed.
In the evening, Gu Qingxue entered the courtyard with a basket of other herbs and games on her back.
Nanny Sheng was opening the door of the hall. While picking the vegetables, she watched the three children playing with the snow in the courtyard. Madam Qi was also sitting in front of her, picking the vegetables with her.
Seeing that Madam Qi did not know how to distinguish the difference between good vegetable leaves and rotten vegetable leaves, Gu Qingxue walked up, took out a small and cute peach, and stuffed it into the Madam Qi’s hands.
“Peaches, there are peaches to eat, Xue’er is really good.” Madam Qi happily took a bite of the peach, smiling even more happily. “So crispy, so sweet, so delicious.”
Hearing that there were peaches to eat, the three children hurriedly ran behind Gu Qingxue.
Turning around, they saw the three little greedy children looking at them expectantly. Gu Qingxue smiled and took out four more peaches, giving them to the three children and Nanny Sheng respectively.
“Miss, where did you find these peaches in this icy world?” Nanny Sheng asked in puzzlement.
“I happened to find a small hot spring on the mountain. There are a few peach trees with winter peaches there. They only bear a few fruits in total. I picked them all,” Gu Qingxue said with a smile.
The children, who were about to eat the peaches, stopped what they were doing at the same time.
“Why aren’t you eating? Mother specially brought these back for you,” Gu Qingxue patted the heads of the three children and asked with a smile.
“Why are we the only ones who have them? Mother, aren’t you going to eat them?” Gu Lin looked at the small, cute peaches in his hand. He held back his desire and handed them to Gu Qingxue. “If mother doesn’t have your share, then I won’t eat them. I don’t like peaches.”
“I, I don’t like peaches either. Mother, eat it.” Lingbao’s saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth. He handed over the peaches and turned his head away, afraid that he would regret it if he took a look.
