The doctor paused for a moment, then looked up and said, "Your brother's legs are not only complicated, but I'm not even sure if they can be cured. Both of his legs have partial fractures and damaged tendons. Plus, he didn't receive timely treatment, so curing him now is not just difficult, it's very difficult. Besides, it will cost a lot of money..."

He was just about to persuade them to give up.

Song Xia said, "Doctor, please focus on treating him. Don't worry about anything else. By the way, can you arrange for someone to take care of my uncle? We might only be able to visit him occasionally."

Are they that rich?

You must not know the price!

The doctor immediately said, "Girl, are you sure you want treatment? This can't be done with just a few taels of silver. It will cost at least a hundred taels, or even more. And if you want us to arrange for someone to take care of your uncle, that will cost at least twenty copper coins a day, plus food and lodging, fifty copper coins a day, not even mentioning the medical expenses..."

Song Chun hadn't spoken yet.

Fang Zheng shouted, "I'm not getting treatment anymore."

"It must be treated."

After Song Xia finished speaking, she said to Fang Zheng, "Uncle, do you really want to lie here like this for the rest of your life?"

"But…"

Fang Zheng uttered two words.

Song Xia interrupted, "Uncle, I know what you're worried about. I'll take care of the money, you don't need to worry. Once your leg is healed, you can slowly earn money to pay me back."

Her uncle is nice; he always brings them food whenever he comes to visit.

Based on this alone.

She can't just ignore him, can she?

Fang Xiu thought about their current stall, and how Song Xia knew how to hunt and insisted on treating her younger brother. She said from the side, "Brother, just listen to Xia'er."

They left the clinic.

Fang Xiu looked at Song Xia apologetically: "Xia'er, it's all my fault for dragging you down."

Song Xia replied to Fang Xiu in a calm tone.

"Mother, what are you saying? I don't feel like you've dragged me down. You only have one younger brother, and we only have one uncle, who's such a good person to us. How can we just abandon him?"

"That's right, Mother."

Song Chun and the others agreed with Song Xia's words.

Song Dong continued, "Mom, let's set up a stall in the afternoons from now on. I heard that things sell quite well at the entrance of the academy in our town. If we sell noodles there, they might sell well too."

"good!"

Fang Xiu said with tears in her eyes.

Fang Xiu and the others didn't see Song Xia give money.

Song Chun saw it, but she didn't ask about it the whole way home. She only asked when she got home: "Second sister, I saw you give me the money when you came out. How did you have so much money?"

this.

Song Xia looked outside, blinked, and said, "Big sister, I'm telling you, but you can't tell anyone else, okay?"

Song Chun nodded seriously.

Song Xia leaned closer and whispered, "Didn't I go to that black brick workshop before? Actually, I didn't wait outside for the yamen officials. I sneaked in. That big silver ingot you saw is what I took from there. Besides that, I have another one..."

Song Chun stared in shock, her eyes wide.

She said with a worried look, "Second sister, can we use this kind of money? What if the authorities find out it's dirty money or something? Wouldn't you be in big trouble then?"

"Don't worry, it won't."

Song Xia answered without the slightest hesitation.

Song Chun's fluctuating emotions gradually calmed down: "Really?"

"It has to be true!"

Song Xia replied.

Song Chun sat down next to Song Xia and said, "Even so, it might not be enough. And what will you say if Mother and the others find out?"

Well...

Song Xia had already made up her mind: "Sis, I'll need you to cover for me in this."

What? She covered for her?

Song Chun didn't understand what he was supposed to do.

Song Xia gave her some instructions, and the next day she did just that. She bought some things from town and told Fang Xiu and the others that she had hunted a big tiger. She asked her older sister to help her find people and an oxcart to take it to town to sell. To avoid the villagers getting jealous, she had previously asked Song Chun to find oxcarts and people from other villages.

When Fang Xiu and the others found out, their first question was whether Song Xia was injured.

What Song Laosi was most concerned about was, of course, how much money he made from the sale.

Song Xia raised an eyebrow and said, "Want to know? Fine, I'll tell you. Anyway, you can't have it."

Song Laosi: "..."

How could he have such an infuriating daughter!

wrong.

She is not his daughter.

However, considering he could benefit from it, he didn't dwell on it too much.

Song Dong and the others were also curious about how much money Song Xia had made.

Song Xia compared three times.

Song Dong asked with a look of surprise, "Sister, you sold it for three hundred taels?"

He had never seen a tiger before.

But he had heard that the prey was valuable.

"Um."

Song Xia's eyes and brows were full of smiles.

Old Song muttered to himself, "Could it be that they sold it for too little? I heard someone sold a tiger and got five hundred taels of silver..."

This girl is probably afraid that if they find out how much money she made, they'll covet her money!

Song Xia rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you think every tiger weighs the same?"

Song Laosi was speechless.

A moment later.

Song Laosi continued, "Why didn't you ask your sister to call me? You should have called me. Isn't it just benefiting outsiders by asking someone else?"

She'll probably give you more money if you help carry the big worm.

What a pity.

Song Xia replied, "Didn't you say before that your injury wasn't fully healed? What if you get hurt again? You'll cry out again."

Song Laosi: "..."

You brat, you have so many excuses.

With so much money, Fang Xiu felt much more at ease. She was afraid that because of her younger brother, the family would suffer and that their resentment would grow.

"With so much money, what did you buy?"

Song Laosi's eyes were fixed on the large bamboo basket.

Song Xia generously took them out: "Look, I bought five catties of half-fat and half-lean pork, a twenty-catty bag of rice, a twenty-catty bag of flour, and some vegetables, fruits, and cakes."

The vegetables and fruits were all obtained from the supermarket.

She hadn't forgotten about Fangzheng either.

When she went to see him, she brought five pounds of apples, a bunch of bananas, a bamboo tube of mineral water, and a mousse cake sold in the space supermarket, which she made herself to sell.

She packed the mousse cake in a wooden box she bought, which didn't arouse their suspicion.

"So much! That's great! We'll have meat for lunch today."

Song Lao Si was very happy. After finishing his story, he suddenly remembered what Song Xia had said earlier and asked in a low voice, "Daughter, can we have meat for lunch today?"

Song Xia opened her mouth and said, "Of course, we'll eat meat today. If we don't eat all this, it will go bad."

Their family has eaten meat several times already, so they're not worried about getting an upset stomach anymore. They can even cook more if they want.

She didn't let them cook meat today.

She did it.

Song Xia cooked all five catties of meat, using some to make braised pork and some to cook potatoes.

They don't have potatoes here.

Song Chun and the others were very curious, but when they learned that it was a good thing to eat, they stopped asking.

Do it well.

Song Xia filled a large bowl and had Song Lao Si and Song Dong deliver it to Song Lao Da's house.

Song Laosi stood still and said, "Xia'er, could you send some to your second and third uncles as well? They are more seriously injured than me."
