Pei Yue, who had opened a chain of restaurants, was extremely busy every day. After not sleeping for several days, she actually died of overwork.
She transmigrated into the body of a widow na...
After preparing the ribs, Pei Yuezhi stir-fried them in a pot, then added scallions, ginger, garlic, star anise, and bay leaves, and stir-fried them for a while.
Add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and the essential soybean paste. Then add boiling water and simmer for thirty minutes.
After stewing the ribs for 30 minutes, they will be very fragrant. At this point, you can add corn, green beans, and potatoes.
Stir it up and continue simmering for another twenty minutes.
Pei Yuezhi filled a large bowl with vegetables and called Pei Yunzhi over to serve them.
When the two children heard that dinner was served, one grabbed a stool and the other grabbed a bowl and chopsticks.
If you're not enthusiastic about eating, there's something wrong with your thinking!
The family sat together, everyone smiling. These people at the table were each other's closest relatives.
Seeing them just staring at each other and grinning like idiots, Pei Yuezhi was a little confused: "Dad, please try it, hurry up and eat."
"Okay, let's eat. Today is such a happy day. It's been so long since we've all gotten together like this."
"Ding, hidden event completed: The original owner's wish. After the original owner passed away, the host had a persistent obsession with his child, his father, and his brother."
The original owner's obsession remained unresolved by the system. Today, with the family reunited and enjoying a pleasant conversation, the obsession dissipated. Congratulations, host, you have received the following reward: 1 prescription for Pei's father's health conditioning, and one trial course of treatment.
"!"
So, my inexplicable longing for Pei's father is indeed the original owner's will. However, having been reborn in someone else's body, I naturally want her family to have a better life.
"System! If I hadn't wanted to take care of them, would you still have told me about this hidden event?!"
System: Playing dead, do not cue.
Everyone enjoyed the meal, and the task of cleaning up afterwards fell to Pei Yunzhi.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Pei Yuezhi went to the basket she had brought that day, and then took out the prescription and a course of medicine from her system space.
She glanced at the prescription, which was very detailed, including what a course of treatment was fifteen days and how many cycles it was divided into. Pei Yuezhi didn't quite understand it, but her younger brother should, since he usually got medicine for their father.
Just then, Pei Yunzhi finished cleaning up the kitchen and came out.
"Yunzhi, come here, I have something good to show you."
Pei Yuezhi mysteriously lifted the cotton cloth, revealing a pile of medicine packets inside, which shocked Pei Yunzhi.
"Sister, what is this?"
"This is the medicine I got for Dad. You remember my friend, Sister Liu? She has a relative whose symptoms are basically the same as Dad's. I asked her to help me find out the prescription."
She handed him the prescription she was holding.
"This...so much medicine, Sister, you've only just started your business, it's all my fault for being useless."
When Pei Yuezhi heard him start blaming himself again, she quickly interrupted him: "Yunzhi, to be honest, my little business is quite profitable, and I also have the help of friends. You don't need to blame yourself anymore. The most important thing is to make sure Dad takes his medicine on time."
Here's the prescription; keep it safe. It's up to you to get the medicine ready from now on.
Pei Yunzhi took the prescription, opened it, and looked at it carefully: "The medicines on this prescription are not expensive. They are at least 40% cheaper than the medicines we are currently taking. However, the effects of this medicine are indeed very suitable for Father's symptoms."
"Take this prescription to town and have it checked. If there are no problems, then give it to Dad."
"Thank you, sister. I believe you."
"Let's take it to the pharmacy to have it checked, that way we'll feel more at ease."
The next morning, Pei Yuezhi took the child home, and Pei Yunzhi went to town with them.
The two children hadn't been to town much before, so when they arrived, they looked around and explored. Pei Yuezhi decided to take them around for a while.
Although there's not much to do at this little market.
After buying a bag of snacks for the children, we took the oxcart that happened to be heading back to the village.
Once home, Pei Yuezhi kept complaining to Liu Yuanyuan about how the system had concealed the mission details!
......
The two days of rest went by so quickly, and it was over as soon as it was over. Pei Yuezhi, Liu Yuanyuan, and Granny Liu then got back to work, looking miserable.
This time, Pei Yuezhi prepared thirty servings of savory pancakes, which she hadn't made in a long time, as well as forty tofu buns and forty-eight meat pies.
The savory pancakes made a comeback and were quickly sold out. They didn't have enough prepared today, and they were all gone after the mealtime.
After selling their goods, the two strolled off to the other side.
The two of them planned to walk around more today, so they didn't prepare much. Since they had five taels of silver in hand, they could consider renting a house.
I walked around for ages and looked at several shops, but they were either too small or too big. I thought I was going to never find one again, but then I actually found one.
The shop has a good location. Although it's a bit far from the market, it's close to the dock. The shop is very clean and tidy, but it's not very big, with only six tables.
The owners, a husband and wife, were sweeping the floor and wiping the table.
Upon seeing the people enter, the proprietress quickly came forward: "I'm so sorry, our shop is closing down. If you two want to eat, please go somewhere else."
“Boss lady, I saw a ‘For Rent’ sign on the door. Are you still looking for tenants? We’d like to know more,” Pei Yuezhi asked.
Upon hearing this, the proprietress stepped aside to let the two of them in to talk.
"For rent, still available. Minimum lease term is six months, two taels of silver per month. You need to pay a one-month deposit first, and then settle accounts monthly. Is that acceptable to you?" the boss introduced.
Two taels a month isn't too expensive for a slightly larger shop, but this shop can only fit six tables, so the area is a bit small.
"Boss, your shop is a little small, can't you give me a discount?"
“My shop isn’t big, but it’s in a good location. There’s a dock not far away, and workers come and go all the time. If my wife and I weren’t so old and our backs weren’t so bad that we couldn’t work anymore, we wouldn’t even want to rent it out for two ounces!”
"And look, after I move out, I won't take these tables and chairs with me, so you'll save some money," the shop owner explained.
The shop was very clean. The owner even led us to the kitchen. There were two large pots and a stove with another pot on top. The back door led to a small courtyard. The courtyard was very small, with only a well and some miscellaneous items piled up.
With its own well and a good location, Pei Yuezhi was increasingly satisfied with the shop and was very tempted to rent it.
I asked the owner some questions about the shop, and he answered them all honestly.
Pei Yuezhi and Liu Yuanyuan discussed it and both thought the store was great; they were very satisfied with it.
"It looks great. How long will it take for you to have a room available?" Pei Yuezhi asked after thinking for a while.
“We didn’t take most of our things with us, so we packed up quickly. The day after we signed the contract, we vacated the store.”
