Ahqing carefully put away the two paper bills she had received into her wallet and then handed the tiny ginseng whisker to the boy in front of her.
"Here, keep this safe. The spiritual energy in it is very strong, and ginseng has a dominant nature—overbearing even. You are souls, inherently yin, so you mustn't eat it anymore, okay? It would be very painful. You can only carry it on you to attract more spiritual energy."
The little boy took the ginseng whisker with care and then looked sorrowfully at the chubby ginseng in the box Ahqing was holding: "It has so many cuts; it must have hurt a lot when it was harvested."
As he spoke, he handed the ginseng whisker to the chubby little baby behind him, then folded the scattered paper bills one by one and stuffed them back into his pocket.
This child has such a tender heart!
