Chapter 122 Learning
"Sister Su, do you mean there's a medicine that can heal the scars on my body?"
Over the years, the whole family has gone to great lengths to remove the scars on their bodies, and even tried many folk remedies and traditional prescriptions, but to no avail.
Even she herself had long given up hope, but now Sister Su said she had an ancestral secret recipe for removing scars.
Although we've only known each other for a short time and I don't know her well, I inexplicably want to trust the person in front of me.
Even if I'm disappointed again, I don't want to let this kindness go to waste.
"um, yes."
"Sister Su, I believe you. I...I want to give it a try."
Somewhat surprised that the young girl trusted him so much, Su Ning smiled and patted her hand: "Then she will certainly not let this trust down."
……
"One two, one two three!"
A powerful and resounding work chant rang out.
Net after net was hauled ashore, and the sight of plump fish swishing their tails in the nets brought smiles to everyone's faces.
The happiest person among them was Captain Qin Fen, who knew the purchase price. After all, the bigger the fish, the more profit they would make.
The nets were cast, the fish were retrieved, and the catch was weighed—everything was proceeding quickly and methodically.
Before long, the fish and shrimp on the task list had been sorted and loaded onto the tractor. Qin Fen kept a close eye on the whole process, not only telling people to pick out the biggest and best ones to load, but also giving them enough weight, even exceeding the limit.
Since Xiao Su had given their production team such a great price, they certainly couldn't let her suffer a loss or be criticized.
That's just how people are.
"Hey, Xiao Su, you've come at the perfect time! The goods are all loaded. Come on, I'll go with you to inspect them!"
"Okay, thank you, captain."
Seeing that the two immediately got down to business, Xiaolian silently swallowed the words on her lips, thought for a moment, and followed behind them.
After the goods were counted, the two signed their names on the order form.
Qin Fen gave a wink to the man next to him, who wiped his sweat and grinned as he pulled out a bamboo basket full of fish and shrimp from nowhere and placed it in front of Su Ning.
"Captain Qin, what's this?"
"Haha, Officer Su, the fish in our Duyan Reservoir are quite different from those elsewhere, especially during the autumn harvest season when they are even more delicious. You'll know once you go back and try them!"
Compared to Qin Jianjun, who is not only straightforward and kind-hearted, but also a captain who has served for so many years, how could Qin Fen be ignorant of human relationships?
This basket of fish and shrimp weighs only about 10 or 20 pounds, but it is a token of their goodwill.
In the past, Qin Jianjun had to talk himself hoarse trying to persuade him, but he pretended not to understand any of the subtle hints he received, mainly because he was unwilling to listen.
If it were Officer Su, he would have taken care of it himself before anyone even mentioned it. The difference in treatment between the two is simply too great.
"Trust me, Officer Su, this fish is delicious no matter how it's cooked!"
After a moment's thought, Su Ning understood the implication behind his words. He was both amused and exasperated, realizing that he hadn't lowered the price for this 'benefit'.
However, she couldn't bring herself to refuse someone outright and embarrass them, so she just smiled and thanked her, secretly calculating the price of the basket of fish and shrimp, which she would then add to the payment later.
"Thank you, Captain. I'll have to try it when I get back."
"Ah, that's right!"
Seeing that she accepted Qin Fen's gift, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Look, it's getting late. Xiao Su, would you like to go back with the tractor driver?"
It would be great to have a car to hitch a ride with, but...
Su Ning turned her gaze to Xiao Lian, who had an extremely low profile, and asked, "Captain, Xiao Lian, she..."
"Dad, come here for a moment."
With a smile in her eyes, Xiao Lian nodded to her, indicating that she would speak, and pulled the bewildered Qin Fen to an open space not far away.
Qin Fen looked at his little girl who was grabbing his arm and clearly had something to say to him. When his gaze fell on the scars on her face, a flash of pain crossed his eyes.
His expression softened even more, "What's wrong, Lianwa?"
"Dad, I want to go to Sister Su's house for a few days."
"Hmm, okay... Huh? Slow down, who are you going with? Where are you going? How many days?" Qin Fen, who always granted his youngest daughter's every request, hadn't even finished saying "okay, okay" when he realized what was going on and hurriedly asked.
Ever since Xiaolian's scars on her face terrified the neighbor's little boy, who cried incessantly and had a high fever for two or three days.
Filled with guilt, Xiaolian became even less inclined to go out.
This fishing trip required the whole family to take turns persuading him to come out and relax. My mother even used her trump card to coax him out, otherwise they were worried that he would get really bored at home!
But now, what did he just hear?
My little girl actually suggested going out, and for a few days?
Could it be that the first incense stick I managed to snag this year, after all the hard work, has finally come true thanks to the blessings of our ancestors?!
“I told her I wanted to go to Sister Su’s house for a few days to get medication to treat the scars on my body.”
"what?"
Qin Fen had a big question mark in his eyes; the more he listened, the less he understood.
When she recounted their previous conversation, and heard Su Ning mention a secret family remedy for scar removal, Qin Fen excitedly turned and left, leaving his daughter behind.
He strode up to Su Ning, the tough man with red eyes, and asked incoherently, "Little Su, you said you have a family secret medicine that can heal scars, is that true? Can it remove the scars on Xiao Lian's body? How much does it cost?"
"No, I'm not doubting you, Officer Su. I'm just asking if we can try that secret medicine first."
"I'm worried about Xiaolian being alone. Can we go with her? We'll bring our own food and take care of ourselves..."
Unlike Xiaolian, who had given up hope of removing her scars after repeated disappointments, he and her mother were unwilling and did not want to miss any possibility, no matter how small.
Our daughter is still so young, fifteen or sixteen, the age when she's in the prime of her life. They're willing to raise her for the rest of their lives, but what parent wouldn't want her to have a complete life of her own, to have someone to love her and children to care for her, so she won't have to grow old alone?
Besides, Officer Su doesn't seem like someone who talks big. If that family secret medicine really does have a miraculous effect in removing scars, he'd be willing to spend any amount of money on it.
"Captain Qin..."
"Let's not be so polite, just call me Uncle."
“Uncle Qin, I do have a family heirloom called Yu Rong Ointment for scar removal. If you’re worried, you can come with Xiao Lian. We can try it on our hands first to see the effect. As for the cost of the ointment, we can talk about it after Xiao Lian is cured.”
"Okay, okay, Xiao Su, wait a minute, wait a minute!"
As he spoke, Qin Fen couldn't wait to turn around and run back.
……
Everyone was queuing up to get their share of fish by the reservoir. Qin Fen quickly scanned the queue, and when he spotted his wife, he immediately stepped forward and dragged her away without a word.
"Hey, it's almost my turn, honey, what are you doing!"
"Afen, Afen, hurry home! Go home and pack your things!"
"No, what are you doing? What are you packing up? Why are you packing things up?"
It took a lot of effort to break free from his iron-like grip. Gao Fen glared at her husband, annoyed, wondering what had gotten into him this time.
"Oh dear, let's talk as we walk!"
"That fish..."
"Fish what? If I haven't seen a fish, can you run or fly? Let the eldest daughter-in-law go!"
The two rushed home as fast as they could, packed a few clothes and a bag of food, told the elderly woman with mobility issues that they needed to explain the situation, and then hurriedly headed back to the tractor.
When they arrived at their destination and saw Su Ning still standing there waiting, the two of them simultaneously gasped for breath.
After a brief greeting, the group carefully huddled together in the truck bed and headed towards the ancient city amidst the roar of the tractor.
Even if he was anxious, he had to go with her to the textile factory first to submit the task and settle the payment.
After completing all the procedures, it was completely dark.
After bringing Qin Fen and his family of three back to the courtyard, Su Ning told them to rest while she went to prepare dinner.
Unable to resist the enthusiasm of Xiaolian and her daughter to help, dinner was quickly prepared by the three equally quick-handed women.
After finishing my meal and pausing for a bit, I didn't keep them waiting too long. I got up and went back to my room to retrieve the 'soap'-shaped jade cream from the Peach Blossom Courtyard.
"Xiao Lian, come with me first and wash your hands."
"Okay, Sister Su."
