57: Secretly changing my mother's body

“Oh my heavens, this is truly a wonderful surprise, wild ginseng! It’s incredibly expensive these days!”

“How much is it worth?!”

Mom, Yang Hui, was overjoyed, feeling completely enveloped by a huge surprise.

“Son, quick! Wrap up this ginseng. Tomorrow, I’m not going to work. I’ll go with you to a large pharmacy to sell it!”

“Oh my, our Old Yang family is finally going to have a change of luck! Although this ginseng has many broken rootlets, it’s definitely worth a hundred thousand or so!”

“With this hundred thousand, the betrothal money your dad and I saved for you won’t even need to be touched, and we can buy you a car!”

“Hurry, hurry!”

The more Yang Hui spoke, the more excited she became, quickly pushing Su Can to make him wrap up the ginseng.

“Mom, Mom!”

Su Can looked at his mom, both amused and exasperated, saying, “Don’t get excited yet. This isn’t the real surprise. Calm down!”

“What did you say?”

“This isn’t a surprise?!” Yang Hui asked, disbelievingly.

“That’s right! This isn’t the real surprise, because the real surprise I’ve already sold. This remaining ginseng, I specifically kept it to bring back for you to nourish your body!”

Su Can finished speaking with a smile, looking at his mom at his leisure.

“Wait, wait! Let me catch my breath. You’ve already sold the real surprise, and this one… this…!!”

Yang Hui suddenly stopped her mumbling, looked up sharply at Su Can, and said with a face full of disbelief, “Son, you, you!”

“You’re not going to tell me that you found two wild ginsengs, are you?”

“Oh my heavens! Quick, tell me, did you find two ginsengs?!”

Yang Hui truly couldn't believe it anymore, looking at Su Can with a mix of anxiety and expectation.

“Yes!” Su Can nodded, his face beaming with a smile.

“Oh my heavens!”

At this moment, Yang Hui felt like she was about to be overwhelmed by a huge wave of happiness.

“I can’t, I can’t! I need to calm down!”

Yang Hui took a deep breath, feeling her heart race and her head spin, and quickly used her thumb to press her philtrum.

Su Can then remembered that his mom’s heart didn’t seem to be very good, although no problems had been detected.

“Good opportunity, I just happen to have energy essence stored in my body!”

Su Can’s eyes lit up, and he quickly ran to the kitchen to pour his mom a glass of water.

Then, with a thought, a wisp of solar essence emerged from his finger. He used his mental power to shake and disperse a small portion of it, blending it with the water in the glass.

Su Can didn’t dare to give his mom too much, fearing that too sudden a change would make her notice or worry.

A gradual, subtle approach was the safest!

“Mom, look how excited you are. Here, drink some water to calm down!”

Su Can handed the glass of water to his mom without a trace of emotion.

Yang Hui was indeed feeling a bit uncomfortable, her mouth dry, so she quickly took the glass and gulped down the water.

After drinking, she smacked her lips a few times and said in surprise, “Huh? Strange, why does this water taste so good today? And after drinking it, I feel completely relaxed, both body and mind.”

“Mom, I think you’re just too happy. Isn’t this just the usual water from the dispenser?”

Su Can deliberately showed an amused expression to distract her.

“Is that so?”

After her son said that, Yang Hui also became a bit unsure.

But she did have a feeling of lightness and comfort, as if her body had been cleansed after drinking the water.

And just now she was dizzy and flustered, but now she didn't feel a trace of it. Instead, she felt refreshed.

Su Can was also secretly, imperceptibly observing his mom, and seeing her look a bit suspicious, he quickly changed the subject.

“Mom, if you keep this up, I wouldn’t dare to tell you anything else. I’m afraid if you knew the truth, you might get too excited and pass away, leaving Dad all alone. That would be a miserable life for him!”

Su Can joked deliberately.

As expected, Yang Hui’s attention was diverted. She glared at Su Can in annoyance and said, “You shut up! Is that how you talk to your mother?”

“Quick, tell me, how did you get two ginsengs? When did you sell the other one, and how much did you sell it for?”

When Yang Hui asked this, she couldn’t help but get excited again.

But this time, she didn't feel any discomfort, nor did she show it.

Su Can knew at a glance that the bit of energy essence had worked on his mom, because her mental state had silently changed.

Her eyes were noticeably clearer and brighter than before, very spirited, completely unlike the vitality one would expect from someone her age.

And the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes had also lightened somewhat, and her hair was darker than before.

“This is great!”

Looking at his mom’s invisible changes, Su Can felt a sense of happiness and pride in his heart, feeling especially satisfied.

Then he took out a reasonable portion of his experiences, slightly modified them, and told his mom.

After listening, his mom, Yang Hui, stood there with her mouth agape for a long time, unable to recover from the immense surprise.

Su Can also remained silent. What had happened to him within this day was indeed somewhat incredible for ordinary people, an unbelievably lucky turn of events.

So, Su Can gave his mom some time to react.

After a good while, Yang Hui finally reacted, stammering, “Son, is, is all of this really true?”

“Quick, pinch me, Mom wants to see if I’m dreaming… Two beehives for over thirty thousand, and because I dug out the beehives, I was incredibly lucky to find two ginsengs, oh my heavens!”

“Five million, you said the other ginseng sold for a full five million, oh my heavens, this is simply a number I wouldn’t dare to dream of in my entire life!”

“Is this really true?”

Yang Hui couldn’t help but ask again.

From her initial excitement, she now began to feel a sense of anxiety, afraid that all of this was unreal, that she was dreaming!

Su Can was also a bit exasperated, so he simply took out his phone and let his mom look at the remittance information.

“So many zeros…”

Yang Hui looked at the amount on the text message, her voice trembling slightly, and quickly pinched a piece of flesh on her thigh hard.

A piercing pain made Yang Hui momentarily stunned, then her eyes suddenly reddened, and she shed tears of joy.

“It’s real! All of this is real, son, Heaven has been kind to us.”

Yang Hui was so happy and excited that she was somewhat incoherent.

Seeing this, Su Can directly took out a gift box and handed it to his mom, saying, “Mom, you’ve worked hard for our family, for me! Your son has money now, this little gift is for you!”

“Look at you, child, you’re already becoming extravagant with money.”

Yang Hui wiped away her tears, saying this, but her hands couldn’t help but take the gift box and open it. A gold bracelet appeared before her eyes.

Immediately, Yang Hui’s eyes reddened again, and tears fell uncontrollably!

At this moment, she felt that all the hard work and bitterness of all these years were worth it!

“Mom, your son will put it on for you.”

Su Can looked at his mom silently shedding tears, and his nose also twinged, but he managed to hold it back.

Then he picked up the bracelet and put it on his mom, and it fit perfectly!

His mom also smiled through her tears, and it was clear that she liked it very much and was very satisfied.

Su Can also took out the electric scooter keys and placed them on the table.
