If An Jing remembered correctly, within three days after grafting, the healing tissues would form, and the graft would start to combine, healing the wound.
Therefore, during these three days, An Jing and Xiao Changyi came to check on the graft daily.
And during these days, An Jing and Xiao Changyi had to re-graft quite a few seedlings.
Luckily, some seedlings had been growing very well from the beginning. If one didn't look at the grafting wound wrapped in oilcloth, one might really mistake them for being the same plant.
Official Liu and his peers thought the seedlings would not survive, but considering that it usually took several days for plucked vegetables to completely wilt, they didn't station someone to watch over the seedlings. They planned to come back after six or seven days to check the results, expecting An Jing to fulfill the bet and resign from office to return home.
