The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man-Chapter 125 - 124: The Approved Sister-in-law

This time, Chen JianShe truly accepted Gu Jiaojiao as his sister-in-law, from the bottom of his heart.

He looked at the closed iron gate and didn’t go forward.

’Since Gu Jiaojiao chose to believe Brother Leng, then I shouldn’t overstep. It’s better to wait for Brother Leng to get back and explain it to her himself!’

He had arrived silently and left just as silently.

Gu Jiaojiao had no idea that her words had been overheard by Chen JianShe.

Right now, she was processing the wild Polygonum multiflorum in her hands.

She was absolutely ecstatic.

These two Polygonum multiflorum roots were quite old and very rare.

One of the larger roots was short and thick. It was fifty centimeters long, had a circumference of 68 centimeters, and weighed 19.6 jin. For a Polygonum multiflorum to grow this large, it would have to be at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, years old.

The other root was a bit smaller. It was forty-five centimeters long, with a circumference of 57 centimeters, and weighed 13.4 jin. It was over six hundred years old.

A Polygonum multiflorum of this age was no less expensive than a Centennial Ginseng.

Plus, these were wild Polygonum multiflorum and very old, making them exceptionally rare treasures.

Gu Jiaojiao remembered seeing a news story in her past life. Someone had found a five-hundred-year-old wild Polygonum multiflorum deep in the mountains, and it had been auctioned for a price of three million.

Even in this era, it would be worth no less than fifty thousand yuan each.

In possession of such a huge treasure, Gu Jiaojiao’s heart pounded with excitement.

However, these things couldn’t be turned into cash immediately.

Although these items were valuable, very few people could afford to buy them.

Plus, the current times were sensitive. If someone were to snitch on her, it would just cause trouble.

She couldn’t sell the Polygonum multiflorum.

Then she started to worry. ’What if Leng Yuan really did borrow money? How will we pay back a large sum?’

’I trust my husband’s character, but what if he’s run into some kind of trouble?’

For the first time in her life, she was worrying about money.

Finally, Gu Jiaojiao made a decision: she would go find Yun Hao. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The original owner of her body had liked Yun Hao. To pursue him, she had done many things—it wasn’t just empty talk.

The original owner had bought Yun Hao food and clothes. She had even given him a fountain pen she’d brought from home to the countryside.

The body of that fountain pen was pure gold. It had belonged to the original owner’s father.

The original owner had swiped it when she came down to the countryside, thinking she could sell it for cash if she ever ran out of money.

But then she became infatuated with Yun Hao and gave the pen away.

Since Gu Jiaojiao was a new person in this body, she hadn’t thought of it at first. But just now, while trying to figure out how to get money, she suddenly remembered.

She couldn’t help but purse her lips.

This Yun Zhiqing clearly didn’t like the original owner, but when she offered him such an expensive fountain pen, he took it anyway.

’He’s really something else.’

Gu Jiaojiao planned to go to the Educated Youth quarters in the afternoon to get the fountain pen back from Yun Hao.

For now, she was going to process the Polygonum multiflorum first.

Fresh Polygonum multiflorum was difficult to preserve. It had to be specially prepared to last a long time.

She planned to dry and seal a portion of it for later use, steep another portion in alcohol, and grind the rest into a powder that could be used as needed.

She also cut the facial soap she had made two days ago into small bars.

The herbal facial soap came in three colors: creamy white, green, and pink.

The creamy white one had a higher concentration of Chinese medicinal ingredients and was targeted at people with spots, blemishes, and persistent acne.

The green one was for those with dry skin and large pores.

The pink one, which was a bit more expensive, contained beauty-enhancing herbs. It also included some pricier medicinal ingredients to make the skin more delicate and hydrated.

The three colors of facial soap had already solidified. The colors were beautiful, and they smelled wonderful. A faint scent of Chinese medicine was mixed in with the fresh aroma, making it more sophisticated than any perfume.

Once they were cut into small bars, they would be ready to sell.
