Chapter 33: Going to School

Ji Yuanming had someone bring the ginseng and handed it to the doctor.

The doctor took the ginseng and just glanced at it before his mouth trembled with excitement, “This is ginseng over five hundred years old.

 And it grew in an extraordinary environment.

Where did you buy this ginseng?” This ginseng had already taken on a human shape, and just smelling it made people feel refreshed. This ginseng was definitely not ordinary.

“The Huayitang in Yuncheng.” Ji Yuanming told the truth. Although he didn’t know much about ginseng, he also felt that this ginseng was extraordinary when he received it.

“Huayitang, is that Mr. Yang’s Huayitang?” The doctor asked. Mr. Yang had been a renowned figure in the medical field. He knew Mr. Yang.

“Yes.” Ji Yuanming nodded.

The doctor reluctantly returned the ginseng to Ji Yuanming, “Continue to use the same amount and soak it in tea for Chief Ji every day.

I’ll come back tomorrow to check on Chief Ji’s condition.”

“Okay.” Ji Yuanming took the ginseng.

After the doctor left the Ji family, he returned to the hospital and immediately called Mr. Yang, “Mr. Yang, hello. I’m Lin Lifeng, a disciple of Qiao Yuesheng. Do you remember me?”

“I remember. Why did Doctor Lin think of calling me?” Mr. Yang asked with a chuckle.

He wasn’t very familiar with Lin Lifeng, but he was good friends with his teacher, Qiao Yuesheng.

They were once known as “Yang in the South and Qiao in the North,” with their medical skills being the best in the entire Chinese medicine world.

“I just went to Chief Ji’s house and saw the ginseng they bought from you. I wanted to ask where you got that ginseng and if you have any more. I want to buy one too.”

“That ginseng was also sold to me by someone else. Ginseng of that quality is rare. If I hadn’t promised Chief Ji before, I wouldn’t have parted with it either.” Such ginseng is hard to come by.

 It was a great fortune to obtain one. He didn’t know how good Ling Yao’s luck was. She could even find ginseng of this quality.

“Do you know the person who sold the ginseng to you?” Lin Lifeng thought that person was extraordinary.

“She sold me the ginseng and left. I didn’t have time to ask.” Mr. Yang didn’t want to tell Lin Lifeng. He didn’t want to cause trouble for Ling Yao.

“Thank you, Mr. Yang!” Lin Lifeng couldn’t ask any more questions, so he stopped.

He exchanged a few pleasantries with Mr. Yang and hung up the phone. He decided to tell his master about this.

Lin Lifeng finished his work and went to Qiao Yuesheng’s pharmacy. He told him about the ginseng.

Qiao Yuesheng was surprised, “Is that true?”

“Absolutely.”

Qiao Yuesheng pondered for a moment and nodded, “I understand.” He would definitely find out who sold the ginseng.

Ling Yao and Zhao Kun finished their phone call and returned to the infirmary in a good mood.

After the advertising campaign, the medicinal wine had become a household name. Even the children playing on the street knew the advertising slogan.

Zhao Kun called her almost every day with good news. He told her that he received calls from distributors all over the country every day, wanting to wholesale the medicinal wine.

 It could be said that the medicinal wine had been a huge success since its launch. Her savings were increasing every day. She was already a little rich.

Ling Xuemei had just finished her work. Seeing Ling Yao come back, she asked, “Yaoyao, have you packed your schoolbag? You’re going to school tomorrow.”

 Before, Yaoyao refused to go to school no matter what. She said she wanted to marry Gu Qingan. Ling Xuemei had tried to persuade her for a long time, but it was useless.

 Fortunately, her daughter had finally come to her senses. She hoped her daughter would go to a good university and succeed in life, instead of getting married, being a housewife, and raising children.

“It’s all packed.” Ling Yao walked forward and smiled, taking Ling Xuemei’s arm. She knew her mother’s thoughts, and she wouldn’t disappoint her this time.

Ling Xuemei rubbed Ling Yao’s hair affectionately, her eyes filled with relief, “Then go to bed early tonight. Mom will take you to school tomorrow.”

“I can go by myself. It’s not far from school. It’s okay, Mom. I’m not a kid anymore.” Ling Yao said coquettishly.

“You’ll always be a kid in my eyes.” Ling Xuemei smiled and poked Ling Yao’s nose.

The next day, before dawn, Ling Yao left the house with her backpack. The high school was in the city, and it only took half an hour by bus.

She arrived at the school and went to her classroom with her backpack.

She walked into the classroom and saw that it was empty. Ling Yao went to her desk, put her backpack on it, and sat down on the chair.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar classroom, Ling Yao recalled some things from her past life.

The reason she didn’t want to go to school in her past life was because she wanted to marry Gu Qingan, but also because she was often bullied at school.

Her classmates often laughed at her for being a child without a father, calling her a bastard and saying that her mother was promiscuous and had her with a wild man.

She was angry and fought with them, but how could one person beat so many? She was often bullied miserably.

She was afraid that her mother would be sad, so every time she got hurt, she would secretly apply medicine when she got home and wouldn’t let her mother know.

“Isn’t this Ling Yao? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t go to school? Why are you here?” A sharp, sarcastic voice came from behind Ling Yao.

Ling Yao turned around and saw that it was Jiang Rong. She was Jiang Rou’s younger sister.

 In her past life, Jiang Rou was the one who bullied her the most. She deliberately knocked over her lunchbox so she couldn’t eat.

 She also took her to the bathroom and held her head under the sink. There were countless such incidents.

She had told the teacher, but Jiang Rou’s family was very influential in Yuncheng, and even the teacher couldn’t control her.

Meeting Ling Yao’s gaze, Jiang Rong couldn’t help but feel a sense of unease, “What are you looking at me like that for…” She felt that Ling Yao was different from before.

 In the past, no matter how her sister bullied her, she would just bow her head and endure it. But now, she had an aura that made her afraid.

Ling Yao stood up and walked towards Jiang Rong.

Seeing this, Jiang Rong couldn’t help but take a step back, “You… what do you want?” Was she going to hit her?

Ling Yao glanced coldly at Jiang Rong and walked past her towards the outside. She had drunk too much porridge this morning and just wanted to go to the bathroom.

As for Jiang Rong, as long as she didn’t provoke her, she wouldn’t do anything to her. After all, it was her sister, Jiang Rou, who bullied her in her past life.

Jiang Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned, “Why am I afraid of her?”

Ling Yao went to the bathroom and returned to the classroom. By now, many classmates had arrived, and the classroom was noisy.

Seeing Ling Yao come in, the students all looked at her, their eyes filled with anticipation for a good show.

Ling Yao walked towards her desk and saw her backpack on the floor.

The contents of the bag were scattered everywhere, and her notebooks were torn.

Her eyes immediately turned cold. She scanned the people present, “Who did this?”
