Lin Shiyu invested all her money in herbal medicine cultivation.

If there weren't patients coming to her for treatment frequently, her family's funding chain would have been broken long ago.

"Your business is more important." Liu didn't refuse, but asked her to focus on her own business first: "Your father is not with us now, and we don't need him for the time being, so there's no rush."

"It's better to prepare for a rainy day than to need it." Lin Shiyu retorted: "Besides, those things can't be learned in a day or two, so it's better to prepare early."

"It's up to you. You have the final say." Liu compromised: "But there is one thing. You can't exhaust yourself."

When Liu thinks back to the time when her daughter was called up for medical treatment and came back, she still feels heartbroken.

"Don't worry, mother. I know my limits."

When Liu heard her answer, she became even more worried.

Didn't she always say she was sensible, but was she the one who made herself miserable every time?

The first wave of herbs began to be harvested, processed, transported and sold, and Lin Shiyu felt much more financially comfortable.

The operation of the workshop began to get on track, and she had more free time.

With money and free time, Lin Shiyu thought about finding a teacher to train Liu.

“It’s too expensive!”

After reading the letter, Lin Shiyu gave up the idea of ​​finding a teacher.

Who would have thought that the salary offered by a well-educated teacher would be so high, so high that Lin Zhi's income was not enough to pay it.

Lin Zhi didn't know anyone with this expertise, so she recently asked someone to send a letter to several doctors she knew, asking if they had anyone they could introduce to her.

Doctors don’t have a high status, but they come into contact with so many people, and they know people from all walks of life.

When they heard that Lin Shiyu needed a tutor, one after another came out to help her find out the information.

Not long after she sent the letter, Lin Shiyu received their reply.

The content of the letter is not satisfactory.

Liu pointed to the only remaining letter on the table and said, "Isn't there another one? Maybe there's a good deal in it."

Using the word "cheap" to describe a teacher always feels weird and a bit disrespectful.

But since she and her daughter were the only ones at home now, Liu didn't pay much attention to the words she had said.

Lin Shiyu didn't have any hope for this.

Although these doctors are not from the same county, they are from the same prefecture!

The people they recommended almost overlapped, and the contents of the letters that Lin Shiyu opened were almost the same.

But since you've already seen it, you might as well finish it all!

"How is it? Is there a cheaper teacher?" After a moment, Liu couldn't help but ask.

Lin Shiyu shook her head: "No, the ones I recommended are the same as those recommended by other doctors."

Liu was disappointed: "If there is no such thing, then so be it. I should be able to learn it by myself if I read more books."

She herself didn't even have the confidence to say this.

She only knows a few words, and it’s not known whether she can understand the contents of the book!

"That's not necessary. Although the doctor recommended the same one as others, he also gave me a good method."

Perhaps knowing Lin Shiyu's family situation, the doctor specifically told her this method.

"What method?"

"Buy people!"

After Lin Shiyu finished speaking, she immediately asked Liu to pack up their things and asked Lin Anji to take them to the county town.

The imperial court dealt with a group of officials, who were either executed or exiled.

Their families, servants, nannies, and the like are usually not punished, but now that their masters are gone, these people who have no freedom will almost certainly flow back into the market.

Normally, servants who re-entered the market were generally looked down upon by those who wanted to buy them.

Because only those who have committed serious mistakes will be sold out by their original masters.

The journey to the provincial capital was long, and it took almost ten days for the three of them to return to Yamada Village.

There were three of us when we left, and eight of us when we came back.

Among the five people, one was a nanny, three were a family, and one was a couple with a child.

At first, Lin Shiyu only wanted that woman because she cooked delicious food and cleaned well.

But she refused to go alone and insisted on buying the whole family of three.

Seeing that her husband and son were quite smart and had decent eyes, Lin Shiyu thought about it and bought all three of them.

Her son later followed Lin Boyu as a servant, and her husband was responsible for guarding the yard.

The last one was a maid chosen by Lin Shiyu, a maid who knew martial arts.

There were limited rooms in the third branch of the Lin family, so the five people finally moved into the old Lin family house.

During the day, the woman who cooks would come to the third room to cook and clean; the little child would follow Lin Boyu; the nanny would only come in the morning to teach Liu and Lin Shiyu.

The only man and the maid who knew martial arts were left idle.

After being idle for less than two days, the two of them were taken away by the two elders of the Lin family to farm.

Crop fields, herb fields, wherever there is a need, go there.

The five of them all came from wealthy families. Their food, clothing and other necessities were not as good as those of their masters, but better than those of most common people.

They were not used to the farmhouse at first. The low house and muddy floor...

They would cry in the middle of the night, worried about the situation they had fallen into.

However, after living there for a few days, they found that life in the countryside was pretty good.

Except for the poor food and accommodation, everything is good.

You don’t have to deal with the intrigues of your colleagues or guess what your boss is thinking all the time.

The psychological pressure is almost zero, and I feel much younger.

With the addition of the nanny, Liu became busy.

I thought I was just learning some common etiquette, but who knew I would learn so much and so many things, and etiquette was only a part of it.

In addition to etiquette, there are also appearance, words and deeds...

The governess was a responsible person, so the plan was to have her teach Liu every morning, and if Lin Shiyu was free, she could teach her together with her.

But she not only came to the third room in the morning to teach these two people, but she was in the third room almost the entire day.

She teaches in the morning and supervises the rest of the time.

Occasionally, he would also teach Liu some other things, such as reading account books, managing and dispatching servants.

Of course, these are just theoretical knowledge, and the conditions for practical operation are not yet available.

But even the theoretical training alone benefited Liu a lot.

After two months, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Liu has been reborn.

As a family, they see each other every day, so the Lin family doesn’t feel much. After all, changes come slowly.

Outsiders' feelings are the most intuitive.

As soon as they saw Liu's figure, they involuntarily lowered their voices and straightened their clothes.

When they got closer, they didn't dare to look Liu in the eye.
