“How did you know?” Liu Juan asked curiously. She remembered that there had never been ginseng in her family.

“I saw this in the picture album.” Chen Meng’er cried out in her heart before she rolled her eyes and came up with an excuse.

“Picture album?” This time, other than Chen Meng ‘ran, the rest of the family members asked in unison.

“Yes, the picture album of the Village Chief’s grandfather’s little sister. Last time, I saw this on it. At that time, she told me that this is called ginseng. It’s very expensive.” Chen Meng’er was obviously lying through her teeth, however, if others believed Chen Meng’er’s lies, that was her ability.

The little sister of the Village Chief’s grandfather that Chen Meng’er mentioned was an existing granddaughter. The Village Chief’s daughter married a city boy and lived a good life. The year before last, the Village Chief’s daughter brought her husband and daughter back for the Spring Festival.

Chen Ping and the others remembered that after the Village Chief’s granddaughter returned to the village, for some reason, her favorite was their precious daughter, Chen Meng’er. If there was anything delicious or fun… she would give Chen Meng’er a portion.

Thinking of this, Chen Ping and the others completely believed Chen Meng’er’s words. “So that’s how it is. Our Meng’er is really smart. She saw it and remembered it.” Chen Ping lovingly reached out and rubbed Chen Meng’er’s hair as he spoke.

“Oh right, Haoguo, other than the two of you, who else knows that Meng’er found the ginseng?” Liu Juan thought for a moment and asked.

“No, only Little Xuan and I went into the forest to look for Meng’er. The others didn’t go in. We took the ginseng out in a cloth bag. After we came out, we didn’t stop and went home.” Fortunately… no matter how mature Chen Haoguo was, he was still a child. There were many things that he didn’t consider carefully. If he thought carefully, he would find out what role his three-year-old sister played in this.

“That’s good. That’s good.” Although everyone in the village usually got along well. Sometimes, they still had to be careful. Although Chen Ping and Liu Juan didn’t know how much the ginseng was worth, it wouldn’t be worth anything if someone without good intentions knew about it and gave them some trouble.

“Haoguo, Haoxuan, you have to remember that Meng’er found the ginseng today. You mustn’t tell anyone, not even your grandparents, understand?” Liu Juan said seriously with a straight face.

“Mom, we understand.” Chen Haoguo. Although Chen Haoxuan didn’t know why, he still answered seriously when he saw the serious look on their parents’ faces.

“Then dad, Mom, let’s sell this ginseng. If we sell it, we’ll have money to pay for my and my brothers’ tuition fees.” The purpose of Chen Meng’er taking out the ginseng was to get her parents to sell the ginseng, it would make life easier for her family.

She didn’t want her parents to end up collecting this ginseng because it was rare and they couldn’t bear to part with it. This wasn’t what she wanted. If it was someone else’s family, they might collect a hundred-year-old ginseng after they obtained it. In the future, if anyone in the family had an emergency, they could use it to save a life. However, there were still a lot of them in Chen Meng’er’s space. Moreover, even if the things in her space were used up. Chen Meng’er had a heaven-defying artifact that could help her cheat. If she planted it again, she would have more.

Liu Juan and Chen Ping did not expect their three-year-old daughter to remember this matter in her heart for so long. The husband and wife looked at each other. They could see the complicated feelings in each other’s eyes. “Okay, listen to Meng’er. Tomorrow, I will sell this ginseng and pay the tuition fees for Meng’er and her brothers.” Chen Ping’s hand that had just been lowered once again landed on Chen Meng’er’s head.

“Daddy, don’t keep touching my head. Look, the braids that Mommy tied for me are all messed up.” Chen Meng’er complained, then, she said, “Daddy, where are you going to sell the ginseng?” Chen Meng’er knew that this ginseng was not wild ginseng. This was a ginseng root that was over a hundred years old.

If this ginseng was sold in their town, it would definitely not be able to fetch a high price. Therefore, Chen Meng’er still did not want others to take advantage of their family.

“Go to town,” Chen Ping replied matter-of-factly. Usually, when their village had something, they would sell it in town,

“Daddy, let’s go to the city. Last time, I heard from the Village Chief’s little sister that this ginseng was sold at a very expensive drugstore in the city. Let’s go to the city to sell it.” Chen Meng’er did not hesitate to pull out the Village Chief’s granddaughter again.

“I should go to the city to sell this?” Chen Ping hesitated. This city was a distant place to him. He had only been there a few times in his entire life.

“Dad, go, go. Meng’er wants to go to the city to take a look. The little sister said that the city is very beautiful.” Chen Meng’er pulled on the corner of her father’s clothes and used her trump card: acting coquettishly.

Chen Ping had no resistance against his daughter acting coquettishly.. “Okay, okay, we’ll go to the city, we’ll go to the city.”
