Chapter 383: Chapter 384 Grandpa Gu is Pitiful
Seeing her wake up, Gu Tingyun began dressing her.
Jiang Manyun, watching this scene, felt a pang of sentimental longing.
Her son was so good to Guibao that she, as a mother, was jealous.
Choosing to be out of sight, out of the mind, she said: "I am going to cut fruit, I will make barley milk for you to cool down and wait for you to drink it."
She had just left when Gu Siyu came knocking at the door: "Brother! Are you awake yet?"
Without her brother’s permission, she dared not enter the room on her own.
"Awake, wait a moment," Gu Tingyun’s voice came from inside the room.
Gu Siyu, who always listened to him, obediently chose to wait at the door.
After a while, the room door opened, and Tingyun led an energetic Helian Qiao out.
Gu Siyu, not wanting to be left out, stepped forward to hold her brother’s other hand, and the three of them walked towards the living room together.
Jiang Manyun handed each of them a cool bowl of barley milk. Helian Qiao took big sips, enjoying the warm and sweet barley milk.
After a couple of satisfied gulps, she noticed that everyone else had barley milk to drink, except for Grandpa Gu, who was drinking tea.
Therefore, she brought her bowl forward and said in her sweet, childish voice, "Grandpa Gu, I’ll share half with you."
If Grandpa Gu was nice to her, she would be nice to him in return.
Moreover, now she could drink two bowls of barley milk every day.
When Gu Siyu heard this, she immediately stepped forward as well, bowl in hand, and said, "I am also going to share with grandpa!"
Gu’s grandpa chuckled, "You kids enjoy, grandpa cannot have sweets due to my blood sugar levels."
His heart was warmed by the concern shown by the two little girls.
Upon hearing that he couldn’t eat sweets, Helian Qiao immediately revealed a sympathetic expression: "Poor Grandpa Gu!"
If she couldn’t eat sweets, she felt like life would lose its pleasure.
Grandpa Gu patted the heads of the two little girls, "Grandpa is fortunate enough to have a full belly and meat to eat every day. The ones who suffer are those who go hungry."
There were still many places in the country where people can barely fill their stomachs. They were overburdened merely by the struggle to survive.
Helian Qiao nodded her head in agreement. The sensation of hunger was indeed hard to bear.
After drinking the barley milk, Jiang Manyun went to the kitchen, with the intention of arranging the gifts sent by the Chen Family. The basket and cloth had to be returned.
Upon lifting the top layer of cloth, she saw layer after layer of eggs. She took the eggs out one by one and put them in a basin.
Then she noticed something wrapped in cloth under the eggs. On lifting it, she felt puzzled.
What was this thing?!
She unwrapped the layers of cloth and was shocked to find a plump, white ginseng!
Oh my God!
After a moment of shock, Jiang Manyun hurriedly took it to show to Grandfather Gu, "Dad, this is ginseng, right?"
She was not sure, afraid she got it wrong, so she wanted her father to confirm.
Grandfather Gu was taken aback, looking at the ginseng in Jiang Manyun’s hand. Its quality was good, at least a hundred years old.
"Yes, it is ginseng."
Jiang Manyun asserted, "Mrs. Chen must have mistaken the ginseng for a white radish!"
The Chen family probably didn’t recognize ginseng and didn’t know its value. They must have thought it was a well-grown white radish, hence gifted it as a present.
No sooner the words left her mouth when Helian Qiao chirped up, "My grandma knows it is ginseng."
Hearing this, Jiang Manyun’s eyes widened in disbelief, "Your grandma knows this is ginseng?"
This ginseng is so large, it would cost at least a thousand dollars if sold!
