novelHuangs Calculation
| ← Ch.017 | Ch.019 → |
Holding the money in her hands, Young Mrs. Lee did not go to Ning Yan's courtyard but instead walked towards him. She was not stupid, she would not give the silver to Ning Yan to go get a doctor, who knows how much money it would cost to treat a patient.
Mr Xue was so easy to talk to. What if he went to the hospital without spending any money? With beautiful thoughts, he knocked on the door of Mr Xue's house.
"..."
"..."
"Five taels of silver, why don't you go snatch it?" Hearing that the little boy actually asked for so much money, Young Mrs. Lee almost fainted.
5 taels of silver was enough to buy a girl. Didn't they say that Mr Xue was a fool? How much does it cost to see a doctor and get medicine? How was it different for her?
"Do you still want to see a doctor? If you don't look then hurry up and leave. What does that mean? If you're sick, you don't have the money, so don't come in." The boy frowned, he looked at Young Mrs. Lee, his eyes filled with disdain.
Just now, he was in the Ning Family's backyard with his master. He already knew what had happened. He naturally had his own way with the wicked.
Being looked down upon by a little kid who still hadn't grown any hair, Young Mrs. Lee puffed up her chest in anger.
But, what could the Young Mrs. Lee do? She had to pay for it. If she didn't ask Mrs. Xu for a doctor, Aunt would have to kill her if anything happened to Mrs. Xu.
He took out the money from his money bag and took out the money that he had not yet covered up. Reluctantly, he placed it in the hands of the boy.
"..." The child was completely speechless.
There were so many women in the village, yet Master was able to stay in the village for so many years. He was truly impressed.
As for the Mrs. Xu, would something happen to them? Definitely not! Master had already seen it, the fierce woman was still the one who ordered the Young Mrs. Lee's five taels of silver.
There was no helping it, that cruel woman actually had a hemostasis medicine in her hands, and it was even better than the Golden Sore Medicine her master had made.
If Master wanted to obtain the hemostasis medicine, he would naturally have to trade with the savage woman.
The boy received the silver before he walked out of the courtyard with the medicine chest
Young Mrs. Lee followed behind Mr Xue. His face was green and purple, five taels of silver was gone just like that.
She had only saved this silver for many years, and the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable it felt.
When they arrived at the thatched hut, they heard from Mr Xue that the Mrs. Xu needed to be taken care of properly, so the Young Mrs. Lee quickly ran away.
After Young Mrs. Lee left, Ning Yan told the Mr Xue about the appearance of the 37th grass.
Mr Xue received the details and was about to bring the boy to the mountain. However, before he could exit through the gate, he was stopped by Ning Yan: "Is there something else?"
Looking at the refined old man, Ning Yan said: "Sir, don't you feel that my courtyard is too spacious and lacking flowers and plants?"
"..." Mr Xue had lived for dozens of years, but he had never seen anyone like Ning Yan.
He was the only one who was capable. What was he supposed to say to an old man like him? Could it be that he was thinking about those things in his yard?
"After Mr Xue's courtyard is completed, you should at least give me something to show that you're doing this!"
They really were thinking about the flowers and plants in his courtyard. Mr Xue was helpless as he looked at the woman holding onto his sleeves.
"Two pots." Ning Yan extended three of her fingers.
"See you out!" Mr Xue was in a hurry to find three or seven fruits on the mountain. He immediately replied, and did not see Ning Yan stick out a few fingers.
Isn't it just two pots of flowers and plants? It wasn't medicinal plants, so it didn't matter.
After Mr Xue left, Ning Yan headed towards the thatched hut. There was only one bed in the house, and Mrs. Xu was lying on it right now.
The more she looked at Mrs. Xu, the more she disliked him. If it wasn't for the fact that Mrs. Xu was weak, she would definitely throw him out.
He brought the black medicine that had been fried in the kitchen in, and fed it to the Mrs. Xu first.
But the unconscious person did not cooperate. Ning Yan rolled her eyes, took out her firewood knife and cut a piece of willow tree, chopped his axe a few times, and then sharpened it with her trident dagger. A simple willow funnel was formed.
He placed the funnel over Mrs. Xu's throat and drank the dark medicine directly from the bowl.
After serving the Mrs. Xu with the medicine, Ning Yan turned around and saw Ning Yu standing on the doorstep. The child covered her mouth and stared at the funnel in her hands, blinking a few times.
"You want some medicine?"
"Not eating, not eating!" Ning Jiu hurriedly shook her head. When she looked at Ning Yan, her eyes were still on guard, and she always felt that this method of consuming medicine was very painful.
A long tube was stuck in his mouth, and he was shouting at the top of his lungs...
"If you don't eat, then train your body well." After Ning Yan finished speaking, he walked toward the kitchen. They began working with the Mrs. Huang.
Mrs. Huang looked at Ning Yan, and from time to time, she would sigh. Thinking of Ning Yan lifting her up with one hand just now, her heart was filled with terror.
She only knew that Ning Yan was strong, but she didn't know that she was that strong ...
If they really made Ning Yan and Tiehzhu live together, then when the couple quarrels, Tiehzhu would definitely suffer a loss.
After thinking about it carefully, he decided to forget about it.
Ning Yan's speed of wrapping the dumplings became faster and faster, and in the end, she had already started kneading them. As for what Mrs. Huang was thinking, Ning Yan had no idea at all.
After the two of them wrapped the dumplings, it was time for lunch.
The helper stopped and looked at the dumplings in the bowl, feeling very pleased with himself.
Eating at Ning Family allowed a limitless amount of continuing food, but there were only two sets of flowers, and those who had thoughts would take out two grey noses from their bodies and soak them in the dumplings, and they would also eat them with a fragrant smell. As for the flowers, they would hide them in their clothes, waiting to return home for their children to eat at night.
As night fell, the men who worked returned to their homes.
When the sounds of the insects chirping in the courtyard reached her ears, she took a glance at the sleeping Mrs. Xu and sighed. There was no place for her to sleep!
"Go to sleep on the mat." The cold seat that Ning Yan mentioned was actually made up in the afternoon. She was in a hurry, it was just a small cold seat.
He walked over with a wronged expression on his face. The mat was very small, and it could only fit one child.
After lying down, he asked, "Where are you sleeping?"
As he finished speaking, his gaze swept across Mrs. Xu. Towards this grandmother, he did not like her at all.
Since he could remember, his grandmother was going to sell him.
However, he was too small and too thin. He did not seem to be able to live long, so he did not sell them out. After that, he continued to snatch things from other people as the fish he took from the river and the pig grass he cut from the mountains were all taken away.
"Sleep. If you don't sleep now, you won't grow any taller." Ning Yan warned.
When it came to height, Ning was scared, so he closed his eyes for the sake of height.
Ning Yan closed the door and climbed onto the roof. Lying on the roof of the thatched cottage, she rested for a while and then quietly walked towards her room.
He touched Mrs. Xu's forehead.
Since the fever was already gone, and the medicine on the wound was the remaining 3 or 7 powder, there was naturally no problem with the efficacy.
Then why hasn't he woken up yet?
Standing beside the bed, Ning Yan's lips twitched when she heard Mrs. Xu's calm breathing become chaotic. She was actually pretending to be asleep.
"..." Since she was awake, there shouldn't be a problem. Ning Yan walked out of the room, went back to the roof and slept soundly.
Her purpose had been accomplished.
Even if Mrs. Xu didn't die, he would still pretend to be asleep.
