“Mother, I’m ready to enter the city. Don’t worry.”

Ethan became much steadier overnight. He packed his things before dawn.

Amelia’s expression softened a lot. She packed a few freshly made spring rolls for him.

“Be careful on the way. Don’t get lost.”

She walked him to the door and remembered something, so she stopped Ethan.

“Wait for a moment.”

Amelia turned around and carried Chloe out of the room.

The baby who was woken up yawned and her watery eyes opened slightly.

Ethan did not understand and stared at his little niece.

“Mother, what is it?”

Amelia stared at her little granddaughter and only nodded in satisfaction when she realized that the latter had no reaction.

“Alright, you can go.”

Ethan went out of the door, confused. He did not react for a long time.

After breakfast, the Jones family members were ready to go to work when Hazel was stopped by her mother-in-law.

“Hazel, how did you find this child?”

Hazel, was a little confused and repeated what she had said before.

“I was lying on a chair in the hospital crying, while Issac went to fetch hot water. Suddenly, I heard the cry of a child around me. I lowered my head and found Chloe. At that time, I only thought that God had been kind enough to give me a child.”

Amelia listened while observing Chloe’s reaction.

Chloe had been cultivating for a long time last night. She was so sleepy that she could not open her eyes. She leaned her head against her grandmother’s chest and fell asleep.

Amelia reached out and touched Chloe’s little head.

Chloe seemed to have been disturbed. She smacked her lips in dissatisfaction, causing Hazel to go over and kiss her head again and again.

Amelia smiled and put the child back into Emma’s room.

That night, Ethan had not returned for a long time.

The Jones family members could barely sit on their stools. They peeked their heads out from time to time, but they did not dare to make any big movements to prevent their mother from worrying too much.

Amelia also felt uneasy, but in order to make sure the family was calm, she could only take a deep breath.

“Stop looking. Let’s get ready to eat.”

Hazel did not dare to move her chopsticks. “Mother, let’s eat together when Ethan comes back.”

“It’s okay. He’ll be back soon. I left some food for him.”

Her words were casual, but her voice was trembling.

The Jones family was anxious, but only Chloe did not panic.

Before they left, Amelia had shown Ethan to her.

Ethan’s aura was very good. Even if there were some hiccups this time, nothing would happen.

Amelia picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and the others could only eat with her.

Fortunately, they had only eaten a few mouthfuls when there was finally a sound from outside the door.

“Mom, I’m back!” The tired voice could not hide the excitement.

Daniel quickly went forward to open the door, and his younger brother immediately bumped into him.

Hazel went to the kitchen to get a bowl, but Ethan did not have time to eat. He tiptoed and turned around to close the door.

Before he closed the door, he even stuck his head out to see if there were any people around him. He looked as if he was a thief.

“Do you know how much this ginseng cost?”

The Jones family members were all guessing.

“50 dollars?”

“80 dollars?”

“Could it be more than 100 dollars?”

Ethan lowered his head and took off his shoes. He took out two thick stacks of cash from under the two insoles.

“300 dollars. The ginseng was sold for 300 dollars!”

Daniel was stunned and almost knocked over the bowl in his hand.

Just one ginseng was really worth that much?

Amelia said calmly, “It’s about this price. The shop owner may have cheated us to lower the price. Otherwise, it would be even higher.”

Everyone could not help but click their tongues. Such a small medicinal herb was actually comparable to the family’s income for more than half a year.

Amelia looked around and her gaze inadvertently slipped past Hazel’s arms.

Finally, she made the final decision. “All of you, keep this in your bellies. No one is allowed to tell anyone.”

If people knew that the Jones family, as a poor family, had made such a fortune, who knew how much trouble they would cause?

Moreover, the medicinal herbs were picked up from the mountains. Someone in the village might deliberately cause trouble, saying that the medicinal herbs were a property of the public, and the Jones family should split the money.

Thinking of these consequences, the people of the Jones family quieted down. They were only secretly excited in their hearts.

This was 300 dollars. The Jones family had been poor for so long, but this was the first time they had seen so much money..
