Jiang Youran, reborn at the age of four, decided to marry her mother, Mrs. Su—who died in depression before she was 28 in her previous life—to her cousin, Duke Ping, who had always harbored feeling...
Wen Yuanbai also squinted and carefully examined the outer packaging of the medicine.
Who could write such tiny characters on such a small box and on such a small piece of paper?
Moreover, the size of each character in each line is almost exactly the same, perfectly square.
The arrangement is absolutely beautiful...
Then he discovered... there were a few words that he didn't recognize?
This little girl... is something else!
Suddenly, Doctor Gu became excited. "Hehe! Young Wen! Maybe... what this girl said is true! Meeting her is your good fortune! You should also avoid this plague that's been lurking around you!"
Wen Yuanbai:......
Nan Zhu lunged forward and snatched the medicine tube, "So you old codger, every time you call the young master 'Wen boy,' you're a plague god's plague?"
Doctor Gu, beaming with delight, grabbed the medicine and ran off, saying, "If we don't call him 'Wen boy,' 'Da Bai' is a good name too!"
"Stop right there! Stop right there!" Nan Zhu chased after him.
Wen Yuanbai:......
Over there, Xiao Youran walked along, thinking to herself, it seems that Wen Yuanbai does not know that his great-aunt and he have a complicated family relationship. So in his previous life, he met and recognized his great-aunt in Sanyang Village, and that's why they later returned to the capital together and stayed at the Yun Mansion to recuperate.
She felt she needed to test the functionality of this little accounting notebook.
She activated the notebook and asked, "Please reveal Wen Yuanbai's background!"
The result was: a big red X appeared in front of the notebook!
Then three lines of text appeared: No spoilers! No spoilers! No spoilers!
Xiao You Ran: ……
I have a few words to say, shouldn't I? You made me, a female ghost who has been wandering for thousands of years, reborn back to the sixteenth year of the Shunqing reign of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you have the nerve to tell me you refuse to give away spoilers?
She posed a thought-provoking question: What's the point of having you if you can't give away spoilers?
The result was another line of text: You can choose not to use it, please unlock the bracelet.
Then there are two buttons: "OK" and "Cancel".
Xiao Youran was startled and frantically clicked "Cancel".
No, no, no, you arrogant little notebook, I'm scared of you, okay?
Don't make a scene about unlocking it at the slightest disagreement!
...
Perhaps out of consideration for the tiger cub, Zhou did not allow anyone to keep anything from the big tiger. Instead, she used all the money she obtained from it to buy food, clothing, and other necessities, making two or three large trips with horse-drawn carts. She also exchanged some cloth and embroidery thread, intending to take her sisters-in-law and daughters to town to do some embroidery and exchange it for money.
If we're talking about any means of making a living they have, this is probably the only thing they can offer.
Madam Yun had no objection to this and never mentioned again that Su and her two children should leave Sanyang Village as soon as possible.
So the Su family settled down in Sanyang Village with peace of mind.
The sisters-in-law and the two young women were overjoyed when they received these precious fabrics and embroidery threads.
This was the kind of work they were familiar with, and it could earn them money. Suddenly, the group felt that they were no longer freeloaders and that they could finally make a contribution to their struggling family.
Zhou immediately assigned tasks to the group: "Now, each of our four households is responsible for washing and starching their own clothes, and each household can send one person to be in charge of embroidery. I will be in charge of the kitchen every day; Second sister-in-law, you will be in charge of keeping an eye on the patterns for the embroidery; Fourth sister-in-law often goes hunting in the mountains and goes to town, and if Third sister-in-law has time, she can collect the embroidery every few days and go to town to see if we can sell it for a good price?"
Despite their previous reluctance, they had no choice but to agree in the face of harsh reality.
Guo was initially delighted to hear that she would be in charge of selling the embroidery, but she became somewhat unhappy when she heard that she would be going to town with Yu.
What does this mean? Are you worried that I'll inflate the selling price?
Or perhaps it was because she suddenly had an extra source of income, and at this moment she straightened her back a bit. Thinking of the Su family, who lived next door and did nothing, she blurted out, "What about my cousin Su?"
Zhou sneered, "You should mind your own business! It's none of your concern to interfere in your cousin Su's affairs!"
Guo protested, "How can we not care? She's living and eating at our house now, and who knows how long she'll stay. Doesn't she need any expenses?"
Zhou coldly surveyed the room. “These past few days, all the food you’ve been eating has come from Su’s cousin’s purchases. If it weren’t for her, our family would have run out of food long ago! Besides, Xiao Youran found such a big tiger for us and traded it for so much money and food. Even if the three of them stay here for a few months, how much food could they possibly consume?”
At this moment, Yun Tiankuang ran in from outside, "Mother, the young master of the Wen family has come with a doctor, saying that he wants to find my cousin Xiaoyouran."
Zhou nodded to her, "Xiao Youran should not have gone out today, she should be inside. Go and call her."
Yun Tiankuang responded and ran towards the backyard, quickly pulling Xiao Youran out and taking her to the reception room outside.
Standing in the courtyard, Madam Zhou muttered to herself, "This little You Ran is probably a true benefactor to our Yun family!"
Li sighed, "Isn't that right? With those three—mother and children—our Yun family will never encounter the most difficult predicament."
Mrs. Yu smiled broadly, "I've said it before, Xiao Youran is our benefactor!"
Guo was taken aback.
In the outer reception room, Xiao Youran came running in, panting, being led in by her older cousin.
She looked up and saw Doctor Gu, whom she had seen at the manor last time, and the handsome young boy Wen Yuanbai.
She was delighted to see him and went up to him sweetly, saying, "Big White, what brings you here?"
Wen Yuanbai gave her a cold, indifferent look without answering, and then glanced at Doctor Gu.
Doctor Gu quickly took out the medicine box he had found yesterday and asked excitedly, "Little girl, where did you get this medicine?"
Xiao Youran's heart skipped a beat. Was she about to be exposed?
She blinked innocently and asked, "Grandpa, is this medicine bad?"
Doctor Gu shook his head frantically, "It's not bad, it's too good!"
"Oh, okay, then keep using it." She continued to push the Tai Chi.
"Little girl, we just wanted to ask where you got this medicine? Do you have any more?" Doctor Gu was clearly very excited. "I know that Young Master Wen's illness is very difficult to cure. I don't know how many times this bottle of medicine will last. If it runs out, where will we find more?"
Xiao Youran tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Come find me again when you're done."
It means you don't need to know where it came from.
Before Doctor Gu could ask anything else, Wen Yuanbai coughed twice and said, "Alright, Doctor Gu, in that case, let's go."
Xiao Youran quickly stepped in front of her, "Dabai, when are you going up the mountain?"
Wen Yuanbai frowned. "Could you use a different form of address?"
