Everyone Pampers the Small Blessing Who Has a Spatial Pocket! Chapter 68

68 Ah Yu Is Not Ordinary

Doctor Hu had been in town for a few years and had seen hundreds of medicinal herbs. Even though ginseng and lingzhi were expensive, they were still obtainable. However, one might not be able to buy truffles even with money.

The conditions for truffles to grow were too harsh, and there was no special way to find them. Even if an expert went to the mountains to dig, they might not be able to find them.

Therefore, even Doctor Hu had only seen it a few times.

To be able to recognize it at a glance, it was all thanks to his master telling him back then, “You have to remember what this thing looks like. This might be the only time in your life that you get to see it.”

“Auntie w.a.n.g, where did you get this? You actually have so much!” Doctor Hu gasped. The truffles here were probably a few catties heavy. Their value was immeasurable!

Yet, it was actually placed so casually.

“Our Ah Yu went to the mountains to dig it up. A few naughty children thought that these were donkey dung and picked it up,” Old Madam w.a.n.g said casually. “From what you’re saying, this thing can be used as a medicinal ingredient?”

Eldest Madam Hu was dumbfounded. “Ah Yu went to the mountains to dig?”

Doctor Hu knew about their w.a.n.g Family’s Ah Yu. When that child first arrived at the w.a.n.g Family, her body was so weak that she was almost dead.

At that time, he did not dare to treat her and only let the w.a.n.g Family take care of her themselves.

Actually, at that time, Doctor Hu thought that Ah Yu would definitely not survive.

Unexpectedly, not only did the child survive, but she also brought benefits to the entire village.

Not to mention anything else, after Doctor Hu found out about the python that weighed more than 3,000 catties, he specially checked many medical books but could not find any records of such a huge python!

Wasn’t that really something sent by the heavens?

He had also refined the python’s gallbladder now. He planned to sell a portion of it and give it to his family. He would keep a portion and use it as a medicinal ingredient to pa.s.s down the family name.

Perhaps, he would only be able to see such a snake gallbladder once in his life.

“That’s right. Our Ah Yu is a lucky person. She was also the one who went to the mountains to dig it out. That’s why I came to show it to you. If it was some other naughty child, I wouldn’t have come to ask you.” Old Madam w.a.n.g curled her lips.

If not for Ah Yu, her grandsons would probably only have picked up real donkey dung!

Doctor Hu immediately sighed. “It’s Ah Yu’s blessing to be able to meet your w.a.n.g Family. It’s also your blessing that the w.a.n.g Family has Ah Yu. No, perhaps it’s also our village’s fortune that our Hu Family Village saved Ah Yu.”

Not to mention anything else, just based on the fact that Ah Yu had saved the Imperial Envoy, if not for her, not to mention receiving food for disaster relief, the various villages would not have survived. At that time, the Imperial Court would find out that the Imperial Envoy had died in their village.

Perhaps, their entire village would have to pay with their lives!

Moreover, if not for the disaster relief food and Ah Yu helping them avoid the avalanche, they might have long starved to death and frozen to death… They might have walked the same path as Shanyang Village.

Although the Hu Family villagers were simple-minded, their human nature could not withstand torture. When they forced people to a certain stage, even good people would probably not be able to hold back their malice.

Regarding Ah Yu’s matter, Old Madam w.a.n.g did not want to talk about it anymore. “How much do you think this thing is worth? You know many medicinal halls. Help me sell it. I’ll give you some of the money I earn.”

Doctor Hu was shocked. “Auntie w.a.n.g, this black truffle is worth a lot of money. Not to mention anything else, when I was a doctor, just a little bit of the dry truffle cost a few taels of silver.”

Truffles are different from other herbs. They have the most fresh medicinal properties, so they are also fresh and even more expensive. In terms of herbs, truffles have always been priceless. I’m afraid these are not cheap! Auntie w.a.n.g, even I would worry if you give them to me.”

“I’m not even afraid that you’ll be greedy. What are you afraid of?” Old Madam w.a.n.g said, “I’m an old woman who doesn’t know anything. If I take it to the town or county city, people won’t even bother to look. At that time, I’ll be tricked and cheated. I’m afraid I’ll lose even more then. I might as well give it to you. How much you can sell is your ability. If you can trick me then, it’s also your ability.”

Old Madam w.a.n.g really did not care. In this village, the only person who was really unmoved by money was Doctor Hu.

Back then, he had really abandoned an extremely generous job offer and resolutely returned to the village to practice medicine.

Over the years, Old Madam w.a.n.g had long figured out his character.

Doctor Hu rubbed his nose. “Auntie w.a.n.g, actually, I have a small request too-I want to ask where Ah Yu dug it from.”

He did not want to embezzle anything from the w.a.n.g Family. His conscience could not take it, but it was impossible for him not to be tempted when he saw the truffles.

“I’ll get a few brats from the family to bring you there later. They’ve all been there,” Old Madam w.a.n.g said indifferently. This thing was precious. If they could find more, it would naturally be a good thing.

It was fine if they could not find more.

Old man w.a.n.g’s family still had to live in the village. If they only wanted to monopolize such a thing for themselves, it would be a disaster, not a blessing.

Doctor Hu was immediately happy. “Alright, alright, alright. Then I’ll help you ask around for the price. Usually, there aren’t so many black truffles sold together. I’m afraid they won’t be able to sell for much. I’ll go to the neighboring county cities to ask around. This will make it easier to sell.”

The main reason was that they were afraid that if they offered too much, the other party would lower the price.

It would be even worse if someone became jealous.

Doctor Hu understood this principle.

“Just take care of these. I’ll leave them to you so I’ll be at ease,” Old Madam w.a.n.g said meaningfully. “However, I’ll have to trouble you with our Ah Yu’s matter.”

“No, no…” Doctor Hu was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly realized that Auntie w.a.n.g was implying something!

He thought about it carefully and immediately understood. So she was waiting for him here.

“Alright, Ah Yu is from our Hu Family Village. I will naturally protect her.”

Hearing this, Old Madam w.a.n.g nodded.

Of course, she was not poor or generous. She wanted Doctor Hu to owe her a favor.

Doctor Hu had to help cover up the matter of the python, the soy milk, and the water when they planted food in the future.

Ah Yu was not an ordinary person. Since this matter could not be hidden, there was no need to hide it. However, it had to be a half-truth and someone had to help support it.

The villagers had limited knowledge so they would be more easily convinced by the words of Village Chief Hu, Doctor Hu, and the others.

After Old Madam w.a.n.g finished her words, she lifted the bamboo basket and poured out all the black truffles.

Doctor Hu looked pained. “Auntie w.a.n.g, be gentle! This thing is expensive!”

“Find something to put it in. I have to take this bamboo basket back.”

Otherwise, when the old man saw that she had left the bamboo basket and did not take it back, he would nag again. It would be annoying.

After taking a few steps, Old Madam w.a.n.g turned around and asked, “By the way, you said that this is called black truffle. What effect does it have?”

“Black truffles are extremely nourishing. It can be used by men, women, old, and young. If it’s a woman, she can-” Speaking of herbs, Doctor Hu spoke frankly.

“That’s good.” Old Madam w.a.n.g did not listen to the rest at all. She walked back and picked out two big ones before putting them back into the bamboo basket. “I’ll take two for the people at home to try.”

It was impossible to let everyone try it, but she had to leave two for Ah Yu. Perhaps they would be useful in the future.

Doctor Hu: “…It’d be too costly to nourish your body with this thing..”

Old Madam w.a.n.g didn’t care at all. “It’s fine. I picked it up for free anyway.”

Doctor Hu: “…” That made sense.

At this moment, Zhang Zhan, who was far away in Yongding County, suddenly sneezed.

A servant rushed into the study skillfully. “Sir, the young master said that he wants to live in the village!”
