Rebirth: Her Herb Garden Space - C412
Zhan Xiaolou regained his composure and agreed with General Qu’s decision to return to the medical hall. The moment he turned around, he was stopped by Uncle Wang.
“You want to leave? It’s not going to be that easy. Today, I finally have two handsome ladies accompanying me. I have to show off.”
“AHH!”
Uncle Wang held onto the dumbstruck duo, not knowing what to do. The two of them walked around the market with complacent strides.
“Uncle Zhao, look, look, this is my eldest daughter, she’s not lying to you right?” I told you she’s very handsome, but you don’t believe me. I’m sorry I didn’t marry her. ”
“Big Sister Li, look, look, this is my second daughter. She is gentle and elegant, a modest gentleman. Have you heard of her?”
“Aiyo, my second daughter is finally married to my husband.”
General Qu, Zhan Xiaolou doesn’t want to come to the market for the rest of his life. These gossiping men are too open-minded.
Aunt Wang had her own turf on this market. It was enough for her to boast for a while.
After sending Uncle Wang off, the two could finally hear what was going on.
General Qu looked at Zhan Xiaolou in embarrassment. He didn’t think that Uncle Wang would have such an ability. On the contrary, he felt that it was an interesting experience, even though it hurt his ears.
Zhan Xiaolou held onto the dishes and instructed Xiaoqing to pick out the wild vegetables one by one with her. In the end, they found five to six strands of poisonous grass. This poisonous grass grew on wild vegetables and grew after the year of winter, so the harvesting period of this wild grass and poisonous grass was very short.
It seemed that the person who picked the wild vegetables was very knowledgeable about the plant’s growth pattern, but the grandpa didn’t seem to be someone who possessed that knowledge, so the real culprit hadn’t appeared yet.
After this major discovery, Zhan Xiaolou informed General Qu at lunch time.
General Qu told Zhan Xiaolou not to act rashly.
“There aren’t many customers here today, so I’m sure the old man hasn’t finished buying all of his wild vegetables. If he were to come again tomorrow, he would definitely go to pick wild vegetables today. So we’re going to follow him now and see where that wild vegetable of his comes from. ” General Qu tidied up his clothes, took a sip of tea, and went out with Lou to investigate the case.
The two went back to the market and found that the old man was about to pack up his stall and go home because there were not many people selling vegetables today. The old man still had half a basket of wild vegetables in his basket.
The two of them secretly followed the grandpa. They only saw him walk out of the country of Yue Moyu and head towards the neighboring Sun Yi Country.
A doubt appeared in Zhan Xiaolou’s heart. This grandpa isn’t from our Yue Clan. Why would he come to China to buy vegetables? They also bought this unusual wild vegetable.
After walking for nearly an hour, the two of them followed the grandpa through a mountain trail and arrived at a farmhouse by the forest.
After the grandpa put down the vegetable basket and entered the house. The two of them quickly caught up to an inconspicuous fenced area and secretly observed from afar.
After returning home, the grandpa had been busy, carrying firewood and burning the brick bed. A few moments later, green smoke began to rise from the pipe.
General Qu climbed up the fence until his legs became numb. The grandpa didn’t do anything weird after looking for a while, so the two didn’t find anything out of the ordinary.
“General Qu, this old man is like a normal person. He didn’t do anything strange.”
As soon as he finished, General Qu gestured for Lou Cheng to take a look.
He saw the grandpa take out some wild vegetables from the blue frame and put them under the water pressure valve to wash them.
“She wouldn’t want it, would she? This is poisonous. ”
“Let’s keep watching.” General Qu patted Zhan Xiaolou on the shoulder, signalling for her not to panic.
After the grandpa finished washing the vegetables, he went to the garden and plucked two chilies and cut them into shreds. Only then did the two people behind the fence confirm that this grandpa was definitely a good person.
“Uncle, don’t eat it. These wild vegetables are poisonous.” Zhan Xiaolou shouted, hoping to stop the old man’s movements.
Then he put his hands on the fence and pushed himself over it.
“Ah!” The old man, who had suddenly heard her cry, jumped in fright, the wild vegetables in his hands falling apart in fright. “If I don’t eat, I don’t eat.” The grandpa raised his hand, not daring to move.
Suddenly, Zhan Xiaolou’s heart clenched. Why did the grandpa surrender after hearing the words? What did the grandpa go through?
“Gramps, it’s me.” Zhan Xiaolou’s heart softened as he consoled her in a soft voice, “Gramps, look at me. I’m the woman who bought the dishes from you this morning.”
The grandpa slowly raised his head, and after looking up and down for a while, he finally reacted.
“It’s you. It’s perfect. Weren’t you eating alone? I just cooked. If you don’t mind, why don’t we go together today?” “Food is a common dish at home. If you don’t like it, I won’t keep you.” After the old man finished speaking, he picked up the wild vegetables on the ground and smiled, “Just now, your shout scared the old man.”
Zhan Xiaolou’s eyes were filled with tears. What a gentle person. How could he be the kind of person to harm others?
“Great sir, this wild vegetable is not edible. You will be poisoned if you eat it.” Zhan Xiaolou took the wild vegetables from the grandpa’s hands and explained the dangers of the wild vegetables.
“Ah, that can’t be. My daughter gave it to me. She told me to carry it to the Maze Moon Country to buy it. So many people ate it, how could there be poison?”
“There’s really poison.” Zhan Xiaolou squatted down to pick out the poison plants among the wild herbs and showed them to the grandpa.
The old man was shocked at first, but soon after, he refused to believe it. He kept explaining to Lou Cheng, “My daughter gave it to me for me to buy and earn some money. How could it be poisonous grass?”
The grandpa waved his hands, intending to chase the two out. Just as the grandpa was pushing the two of them to the door, the grandpa stopped his actions and walked over quickly.
Zhan Xiaolou and General Qu had different expressions on their faces as they turned to look at the old man. The old man could only cry as he spoke, as if he had suffered a great grievance.
“Daughter, they said that the wild herb you gave me was poisonous grass, right? I almost ate it today. ”
It seemed like this grandpa believed him, but he just wasn’t willing to give up.
“Aiya, don’t cry anymore. Why are you crying?” The old man’s woman had a look of disdain on her face as she swung her arms tightly, not allowing the old man to touch her. There are outsiders here, can you not embarrass me? ”
“Hurry up and tell me if you’re selling poisonous plants or not. If it’s poisonous, I’m going to harm someone.” The grandpa anxiously held onto his daughter, allowing her to shake him off again and again.
The woman became impatient and flung him off again. She ignored the two other people behind her and started rummaging through the grandpa’s purse. Yes yes, if you think so. “He’s really too old to die.”
“Are you speaking the truth?” The old man stopped crying. He wiped away his tears and stared at his daughter who was taller than him with a serious expression.
“It’s fake, it’s fake. Hurry up and give me the money for buying vegetables today.” His daughter didn’t seem to care and continued to do disrespectful things to his father.
