221 Ginseng

Rumble! The sound of a tractor came from behind.

When Yu Hai turned around and saw that the driver was a young lady, he hurriedly shouted, “Hello, young lady. Can you give us a ride?”

Yu Bing hurriedly parked the tractor beside Yu Hai and replied loudly, “Hello, where are you guys going?”

Yu Hai took a step forward and approached the driver’s seat. “We’re going to the He Mountain Brigade to visit our relative.”

Yu Bing was going to the county to repay money today. The factory was profitable now, so the factory held a meeting and decided to pay off the debts first.

When Yu Bing saw the couple’s outfits, she guessed that they were the parents of an intellectual. She smiled gently and said, “I’m from the He Mountain Brigade. Hurry up and get in the tractor.”

Yu Hai didn’t expect to be so lucky, so he said happily, “What a coincidence! My wife is not in good health, so she can’t walk very quickly.”

With that, he helped Li Xin into the car and they reached the village around 20 minutes later.

Yu Yan, who was working in the field, immediately saw her adoptive parents sitting in the tractor. She immediately realized that they might have come to see her because she had written about being seriously ill, so she was frightened. When she saw that the driver was Yu Bing, she was anxious and afraid. She was afraid that Yu Bing would tell her adoptive parents what she had done to her.

Yu Yan hurriedly applied for leave from the team leader and rushed back to the dormitory.

After all, as the captain of the intellectual team, Yu Bing dropped the couple off at the dormitory entrance and chatted with them for a while. She didn’t expect the few of them to hit it off.

Li Xin asked with a smile, “Yu Bing, how old are you this year? You look about the same age as my daughter. You look thin, but you’re much more capable than her. It’s my fault for spoiling her. I usually do everything at home and never gave her a chance to learn how to be independent.”

Yu Bing replied with a smile, “I’m 19 this year. I came to the countryside last year. What’s your daughter’s name?”

Li Xin immediately replied, “Her name is Yu Yan. What a coincidence that we have the same surname as you. We’re really fated!”

Yu Bing was speechless.

Yu Bing didn’t expect to meet Yu Yan’s adoptive parents in this life. She looked at the parents who clearly doted on their daughter, but in her previous life, Yu Yan said they were misogynistic and strict. Not only that, but Yu Yan also portrayed herself as an adoptive daughter who was mistreated by her adoptive parents.

At the thought of this, Yu Bing felt pity for the couple in front of her. However, this was someone else’s family matter after all, and she wasn’t familiar with them. If she revealed Yu Yan’s true colors, the other party might think that she was sowing discord. Hence, she didn’t say anything else. She only smiled and said that she still had to return to the factory before leaving.

At this moment, Yu Yan had also jogged to the dormitory. When she saw her adoptive parents sitting under the tree at the door, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, she recalled her exaggerated description of her illness. After thinking of an idea, Yu Yan hid in the corner and spun around more than ten times. After holding onto the wall and waiting until she felt less dizzy, she covered her mouth and nose and held her breath for about a minute before slowly walking out.

At this moment, Yu Yan’s face was already a little pale. Coupled with the fact that she had run over here previously, her face was still covered in sweat. She said weakly, “Dad, Mom.”

When Yu Hai and Li Xin saw Yu Yan’s appearance, they didn’t doubt her at all. They went forward to support her as they said worriedly, “It’s been so many days, so why is your condition still so serious? We have to go to the hospital to take a look.”

Li Xin and Yu Hai originally thought that since it had been about half a month after Yu Yan initially sent the letter, she should have recovered. The reason they were in a hurry to come was that they thought that Yu Yan would be frail after being seriously ill and wanted to give her some things to nourish her. Moreover, they had not seen their daughter for a year and missed her very much.

Only then did Yu Yan realize that she had overdone it. She blamed Li Xin for it. If Li Xin had not been so strict with her since she was young, she wouldn’t have panicked and forgotten about the time difference.

She definitely couldn’t go to the hospital, so Yu Yan hurriedly pulled her adoptive mother back. “Mom, I’m already much better. When I saw you guys in the field previously, I thought I was seeing things and was in a hurry to rush back. That’s why I look exhausted.”

Li Xin said with heartache, “It’s not like we’ll run away, so what’s the hurry? But from the looks of it, your immune system has probably become a lot weaker. Your father and I went to the pharmacy to buy some ginseng. Unfortunately, it’s still a little young.”

Wild ginseng was rare. Yu Hai had bought it with the help of a few acquaintances.
