Zhao Xuran was quite surprised to see the two additional people, "Who are they?"
"My third uncle’s son and daughter." Gong Ruwen reluctantly explained their reason for coming back this ti.
Oh no, could it really be illness, and such a serious one at that? Zhao Xuran was quite startled.
"It was fake before, just to trick us into coming back, but later it sohow turned into a real illness." Gong Ruwen didn’t understand why a perfectly healthy person would fall ill, but that didn’t matter much.
What mattered was that no matter what plans they had, Zhang Lan’s health wasn’t going to improve, right?
Zhao Xuran acknowledged with a sound; now that there was a simple resolution on Zhang Lan’s side, he was worried about how much trouble these two would cause while staying here.
"Don’t worry, they won’t talk. Compared to my family, they dislike my eldest uncle’s family even more." Gong Ruwen was also a bit uneasy, but he couldn’t openly express his constant worry.
"Besides, my sis has no way of sending them back." Gong Ruwen genuinely had no solution, and you’d better not take your displeasure out on , take it up with my sis if you have a problem.
Upon hearing it was with Gong Ruini’s consent, Zhao Xuran comnted, "I knew Ni Zi couldn’t bear it, she would definitely help the siblings who are having a tough ti."
Rolling his eyes, clearly it was a ss before, just short of saying how he brought two people who would only hold them back, but upon hearing Gong Ruini agreed, he suddenly cos out with a statent like this.
Gong Ruwen really wanted to say, big brother, where’s your integrity, how can you change like the weather in June?
"By the way, the house is already tidied up." Zhao Xuran said that everything was ready.
"And today we specially went fishing, we’ll have fish soup when we get back."
"Also caught a wild chicken." Zhao Xuran knew Gong Ruini and the others didn’t eat well on the way, so he had prepared plenty of food in advance.
Wow, fish soup and wild chicken to eat, Gong Jiaming couldn’t bother arguing with Zhan Banxia and the others, and he leaned in towards Zhao Xuran to ask about it.
"Glutton." Zhan Zisu felt great disdain for Gong Jiaming’s gluttonous behavior.
"Zisu." Zhan Banxia spoke out to stop her, it wasn’t about manners, but about giving Gong Ruini so respect, after all, he was her brother.
Zhan Zisu stuck out her tongue, "Sister Ni, I didn’t an to."
Gong Ruini expressed that she didn’t want to get involved in the kids’ business, it was really tiring. She was here to earn money, not to take care of three kindergarten children.
"You should be nice to Brother Xiao Ming."
"No fighting."
No fighting? Zhan Banxia said that kind of pressure was enormous, "Sis, we can’t control it."
Hmph, it’s that brat’s fault. If it weren’t for him, would Sister Ni say anything bad about them? Zhan Banxia and his brothers insisted it was Gong Jiaming’s fault; otherwise, they definitely wouldn’t have screwed up.
Gong Jiaming stated that he absolutely wouldn’t take the bla, it has nothing to do with him.
Both sides blad the other and glared viciously at one another.
===
Gong Ruini had been worried all along, worried that Gong Jiaming and Zhan Banxia would fight, creating endless trouble.
On the very first day they t, it was nearly a collision of Mars and Earth, causing chaos that made Gong Ruini want to kick all three of them out.
Unexpectedly, they actually got along well afterwards, though their speech was still full of sarcasm.
"Gathering ginseng, do you think you’re an immortal?" Zhan Zisu mocked, "My master’s grandpa knows so much, and he hasn’t managed to gather ginseng."
"I know, but your master’s grandpa is a doctor, not a herbal gatherer; I’m the herbal gatherer."
"You just gather herbs outside, can you go deep into the wilderness?" Zhan Zisu expressed that even if Zhuge Zhi couldn’t gather ginseng, it didn’t an Gong Jiaming could.
From inside the house, Gong Ruini worriedly called out, wasn’t this provoking that brat to venture deep into the mountains?
Although it had been tranquil these years, without sightings of Northeast tigers, who could guarantee no tigers in the areas connected to Da Xing’an Ridge?
Even without tigers, aren’t there still bears and wolves? More importantly, there are snakes. If it were winter, fine, but snakes are active in the sumr.
In such a vast forest, even a group of people might get lost, let alone one kid running in.
No, must go out and stop him; Gong Ruini didn’t want to regret later, although Gong Zhuang said if an incident happened, they wouldn’t trouble the Gong Tao family.
But those words sounded unreliable; would Gong Zhuang really let them go if sothing happened?
Just as Gong Ruini was about to stand up, she heard Zhao Xuran’s voice from outside, "Your second brother, who is so resilient and loves making money, hasn’t gone; do you think this money is easy to earn?"
Uh, why is Zhao Guangran always used as an example in cases like this, Gong Ruini wondered what busy Zhao Guangran, collecting dicinal herbs at the mont, would think.
Of course, even if he did hear it, he probably wouldn’t be too stirred, because compared to this kind of constant scapegoating, he’d rather be busy making money.
Gong Jiaming was tempted before; though collecting herbs made money, it was less than ginseng, making him less interested.
But as tempted as he was, Gong Jiaming wasn’t a fool, especially when he heard how Zhao Guangran was involved; he snapped out of his daydream about making money.
"Really dangerous?" Gong Jiaming felt that besides Zhao Xuran, no one else seed reliable among the people there.
Dangerous? "Not only dangerous, but you also won’t find ginseng." Zhao Xuran wasn’t trying to discourage the kid; he was just stating the truth.
"Ah." Dangerous and no ginseng to gather, Gong Jiaming thought it over and realized this thing might not be as easy as it seed, so what to do now.
"Ah, what." Gong Ruwen didn’t ddle with Gong Jiaming’s antics, but hearing Gong Jiaming trying all sorts of ans to gather ginseng, he got anxious.
This was seriously no joke; if sothing happened, it wouldn’t be funny. "If ginseng were that easy to gather, would people be gathering dicinal herbs?"
"They were born and raised here, compared to you, are they less familiar with the area?" Gong Ruwen stated that Gong Jiaming was truly simple-minded.
Gong Jiaming really didn’t understand how a smart guy like his third uncle could have such a son. Did eating too much make him forget to use his brain?
"They, they..." Gong Jiaming wanted to defend himself, but Gong Ruwen was correct. If ginseng was indeed so simple to gather, why wouldn’t locals gather it to get rich, leaving it to an outsider like him?
Gong Jiaming was stunned, and panicked, "Bro, I understand now."
Understand? In these tis, knowing sothing’s a mistake but repeatedly making it isn’t rare, is it?
Gong Ruwen huffed coldly, "Knowing it, don’t make mistakes."
"I understand." Previously, Gong Jiaming didn’t think much of this cousin, but he didn’t expect the aura he exuded in that short ti seed even stronger than his father’s.
