Chapter 176 Returning to Lanchuan
"Mr. Lu, can the ginseng in this prescription be replaced with other herbs?"
"Sure, 100-year-old Polygonum multiflorum or 100-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. As long as you have these three herbs, you can use any one of them."
Lu Ping also knew that ginseng was easy to find, but ginseng that was a hundred years old was hard to find.
However, if you want to get the best body-refining effect, you must use medicinal herbs that are hundreds of years old. Other medicinal herbs will not work at all.
He also thought about using the spirit crystal stones under the zoo instead, but the foundations of the thirty-six people selected were too weak. Not to mention them using it, even the internal force warriors did not dare to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit crystal stones easily. If they were not careful, they would be in danger of exploding and dying.
"That's good. One more choice means one more way out."
Zhang Jiuling nodded and said, "Then everyone should pay per person."
"I have no opinion!"
"I don't have any objection either."
Sun Sheng and Sun Ruonan seconded the proposal. After all, these medicinal materials were for the three forces of theirs, and paying per person was fair and just.
"Since you all have no objection, then do it according to my method. I guarantee there will be a big surprise."
After saying that, Lu Ping walked out the door.
Halfway through the walk, he seemed to have thought of something, turned around and said:
"Oh, by the way, I have to go back to my hometown tomorrow. I will come back to check on your training results in half a month."
"Yes!"
……
The next morning, Saturday.
Lu Ping originally planned to take only Han Chuning and the two children back to his hometown in Lanchuan.
As a result, Han Churan, Han Dewang and Liu Guilan insisted on going with them.
In Liu Guilan's words: Your children are already able to help with cooking, but we have never even met our in-laws. Do you think this is appropriate?
We don’t care about who is right or wrong, but it shouldn’t be too much for the parents of both sides to meet, right?
This simple sentence actually left Lu Ping and Han Chuning speechless and at a loss for words.
According to the traditional etiquette of Longguo, before marriage, the man's parents must go to the woman's family to propose marriage, give betrothal gifts, and choose an auspicious day for the wedding.
But they not only skipped these rituals, they also didn't inform the girl's parents about such an important event as giving birth.
From the perspective of etiquette, the man has been disrespectful.
There was no choice but Lu Ping could only silently change the five-seater SUV into a seven-seater commercial vehicle.
At Liu Guilan's repeated insistence, they purchased cigarettes, alcohol, sugar, tea and various valuable gifts and went to her hometown in Lanchuan.
Lanchuan City.
It is located in the northwest, on the banks of the Yellow River, more than a thousand kilometers away from Jiangbei.
Lu Ping and Han Chuning discussed taking a plane or high-speed rail to return to their hometown, but whether taking the high-speed rail or plane, after arriving in Lanchuan, they still have to travel another 200 kilometers to reach Lu Ping's home.
All in all, driving is relatively convenient.
It is Grain Rain now, which is a good time for wild vegetables from Northwest China to be on the market.
During the summer vacations, Han Chuning went to Lanchuan’s hometown with Lu Ping several times.
During the day, Lu Ping would go to the fields with his parents to harvest wheat, and Han Chuning would prepare lunch and send it to the fields.
Then, go home and make dinner.
They would also use the solar stove to boil water for Lu Ping and his friends to wash when they got home.
At that time, she was like a newly married young wife, and she would help Lu Ping scrub his back. Although it was hard work, she lived a happy life.
Every time he thinks about it now, Lu Ping can't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Han Chuning repeatedly reminded:
"Dad, Mom, Lu Ping's family lives in the countryside. When you get there, don't say anything nonsense or look down on them. Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my back on you."
"Don't worry, I understand what you're saying. Mom and Dad were country folk once, have you forgotten what kind of life we lived before?"
Liu Guilan smiled awkwardly.
She likes to show off in front of others, and also likes to belittle others and exalt herself, and she always speaks without restraint.
Once upon a time, she offended countless people just because she said the wrong thing.
However, she didn't dare to act strangely now. In just one day, they learned a lot of information about Lu Ping from Grandma Li.
Especially after learning that Lin Ruoqiu was a female ghost, the old couple almost frightened to death on the spot.
If they don't make this good son-in-law happy, and if he is targeted by a female ghost, they won't even know how they died.
Han Chuning didn't know all this.
She only knew that her and Lu Ping's lives were just starting to get better, and she couldn't let her parents ruin it.
Han Churan also warned:
"Sister, don't worry. If my parents dare to talk nonsense, I will let Sister Qiu deal with them."
"Of course, please speak properly. Can we not bring up Sister Qiu?"
When Liu Guilan heard Lin Ruoqiu's name, she felt a chill on her back and her heart skipped a beat.
Han Dewang glared at Han Churan fiercely and said with a gloomy face:
"Of course, we are your parents after all, so let's not mention Sister Qiu when we chat, okay?"
"Giggle!"
When Han Churan saw his parents' pale faces due to fright, he felt very proud, and looked as proud as a victorious rooster.
The conversation between the few people made everyone in the car laugh. Han Chuning was completely relieved. With Lin Ruoqiu intimidating the two elders, they would definitely not cause any trouble.
The business car was speeding on the highway.
Heading west, from dawn to dusk.
Lu Ping only filled up the gas once at the service area and then drove all the way back to his hometown.
……
Lanchuan City.
Xinsi Town, Balong Village.
Gao Xianglian, who had been busy all day, had just finished cleaning the kitchen and was preparing to wash the wild vegetables she picked today to make pancakes tomorrow.
Just then, someone knocked on the big iron gate outside the compound.
Bang bang bang!
In the quiet night, the sound seemed very loud.
"Lu Youshan, open the door for me. I see the lights in your house are still on."
blah blah blah!
Gao Xianglian quickly turned off the kitchen light, and rushed to the living room in a panic. She grabbed Lu Youshan who was resting on the kang and said in a panic:
"Old man, someone is knocking on our gate. I think it's that bastard Huang Fancheng. He's probably here to collect his debt again."
"Didn't I pay him back?"
Lu Youshan climbed up from the bed and said with a frown.
At the same time, he pricked up his ears and listened to the noise outside the door.
Gao Xianglian looked worried, "But he is right in front of our house now."
"Don't pay attention to him, he will leave on his own soon."
The old couple lay on the windowsill of the living room, staring at the big iron gate outside the yard, talking in a low voice.
At this time, another voice came from outside the door.
"Lu Youshan, I'll only give you half a minute to think about it. If you don't open the door, I'll tear it down."
"Old man, it's Shang Fude's voice."
"Why are they here together?"
Lu Youshan's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and he had a bad premonition.
Huang Fancheng and monk Fude are relatives and are well-known lazy men in Balong Village.
Lu Youshan borrowed money from them.
However, he had already repaid Huang Fancheng's money and only half of Shang Fude's.
We agreed to pay it back after the autumn harvest, so why are you here to collect the debt now?
Before the old couple could think about it, another voice came from outside the door.
"Lu Youshan, what do you mean by not opening the door? Do you and Gao Xianglian still want to have a baby?"
Swish! As soon as these words came out, Lu Youshan's face turned pale.
"It's Huang Bu Ren from the town. He, he must be here for Yao Yao."
"What to do? What should we do now?"
