The initial agreement was to buy two children to do odd jobs and farm work at home, but Zhao Yanniang discovered that this was not the case.

Mrs. He treated her two children, Xiaolan and Xiaolü, the same as her own daughters. They were treated the same in every way, from food and clothing to housing and transportation.

Now they're even spending money to send their children to study medicine, letting them fend for themselves.

That's wonderful, so kind-hearted.

Ms. Chen asked with some concern, "Tiantian, where is that clinic? Will the child suffer if she goes there?"

He Tiantian explained, "It's in the city, but it's about half an hour away from here. They take in some children every year to learn medicine, and they eat and live there."

"Ah...that's quite far. Won't it be too tiring for them to come back often?" As an elder, Chen felt most sorry for the children at her age.

Elaine Chao quickly waved her hand and said firmly, "Grandma, I'm not afraid of hard work."

Mrs. Chen gently touched Zhao Xiaolan's hand with heartache. After spending so much time together, she genuinely liked the child and hoped she would be alright.

Elaine Chao felt very warm inside, and she considered this place her home, surrounded by the company and care of her family.

After the initial excitement subsided, Elaine Chao suddenly realized a very serious problem.

"Auntie, is the monthly tuition fee at that clinic... particularly expensive...?" She seemed to have heard Chu Yu mention it before, that it wasn't cheap.

He Tiantian pointed to the silver on the table and said casually, "It's a monthly tuition fee of one tael of silver."

"What?" Zhao Yanniang's mouth dropped open.

This isn't just expensive, it's outrageously expensive! Clinics these days are such a rip-off; no wonder some families are too poor to afford a doctor.

"It's nothing. As long as Xiaolan learns real skills, she can help more people in the future. These things are far more valuable than money."

He Tiantian, who comes from the 21st century, clearly understands the importance of education.

So no matter how much financial pressure she faces, she will make sure her children continue their studies.

And then there's Wanzi. We'll see if we can send her to a girls' school after the New Year.

It's said that the girls' school will be recruiting students next spring, but not just any girl will be accepted. They must pass a certain assessment.

So she needs to go back sometime to explain this to Wanzi and let the child's side make preparations in advance.

The weather was getting colder and colder. Before long, when I woke up in the morning, there was a layer of white frost on the dry grass on the road.

When He Tiantian returned to Changfeng Village again, she brought Hong Erniang with her.

Because Hong Erniang needs to buy land, and the deal was finalized this year, the wasteland also needs someone to manage it. Once it's managed, it can be planted next year when the time comes.

The good news was that He Tiantian had just returned home when she heard the good news from her father.

The wheat planted in the field is growing well, and they have already succeeded halfway.

Hong Erniang had been to the far north, so she had naturally seen wheat. She was quite surprised and nudged He Tiantian's arm, "Sister, how did you come up with the idea of ​​planting wheat? That's so clever!"
