"Oh dear, is that all? I'll have to use it sparingly!"
"How about I don't throw it away yet, and use it again tonight to see if I can use it a couple more times?"
"Mom, you should throw it away quickly, it's so dirty!" Wei Jinxiang said with disgust.
The originally brownish pills became shiny and oily after being used overnight.
When you pinch it with your hands, your fingertips will feel a layer of oily substance.
"This must have flushed out the toxins that kept me awake!" Wang Dangui said confidently, not at all disgusted by the little pills she had used.
"If it's poison, you have to throw it away!" Wei Jinxiang urged Wang Dangui, telling her to throw it away quickly.
Wang Dangui, however, was reluctant to part with it.
"There's only a little bit, one pill a night, it won't last long, so we have to be careful with it!"
Having had a good night's sleep, she was even less willing to be unable to sleep.
"What's there to save? Zhengjun told me that I can just ask him for it if I need it!"
"These little pills were made by my sister-in-law, so there's plenty of them for you to have, no need to be stingy!"
He Yalan slept well last night and is in a good mood today.
"Honey, that's not how it works."
“Although you and Zhengjun are good brothers, it still costs money for them to make these little pills. Besides, this kind of good thing that can help with sleep is probably very expensive. Are you really going to keep asking Zhengjun for free?”
He Yalan disagreed.
Even close brothers keep clear accounts.
Lu Zhengjun's willingness to help is a favor, while her refusal is her right.
They really have the nerve to take those pills from people for free every day?
"Then what should we do? If we don't go get it, Mom won't be able to sleep, and you'll argue with me again?"
"Are you stupid?! Give them money and we'll buy it!" He Yalan was truly impressed; did she really have to teach him this?
“Yes, yes, yes!” Wang Dangui agreed.
“Alan is right, we can’t take other people’s things for nothing. These little pills are really good, give Zhengjun some money to buy them!”
Wei Jinxiang thought this made sense.
On the day he went to the army, he specifically brought five yuan with him and went to find Lu Zhengjun.
"Your Majesty, thank you so much! That little pill worked wonderfully!"
"My mom is sleeping soundly, my wife is sleeping well, and finally there are no more arguments at home!"
"As long as it works well, that's fine." Lu Zhengjun nodded.
He said, "How could something made by Crescent Moon not be effective?"
"Well..." Wei Jinxiang suddenly looked a little embarrassed, touched his neck, but still spoke frankly to his brother.
He took out five yuan and forced it on Lu Zhengjun.
"Your Majesty, good things shouldn't be taken for free. Here's five coins. And... could you sell me some more of those little pills?"
“My mom was afraid that if she ran out of pills, she would use one pill twice.”
"Wei Jinxiang, you're telling me this?"
Lu Zhengjun forcefully returned the money, her expression somewhat displeased.
"Tell Auntie not to worry, I'll have Yueya make more and send them to you later."
Thinking of Su Yueya's personality, she has always been kind and warm-hearted.
If I ask her for help, she probably won't refuse.
"Your Majesty! You must accept it, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to my wife and mother when I get back!"
"He was talking about me this morning, saying I shouldn't have taken your things for free..."
"Do we need to argue about these things?"
"It's not about being petty! This was made by someone's sister-in-law, right? There must have been a cost involved, right? You helped me, and I'm making you pay for it? What kind of person would I, Wei Jinxiang, be if word got out?"
Wei Jinxiang was very firm in his stance: the money had to be given.
Seeing his insistence, and considering that making small pills with crescent moons does indeed have costs.
Lu Zhengjun planned to accept a token amount.
"That won't cost more than five yuan."
Wei Jinxiang stopped Lu Zhengjun from giving him change.
"Then consider it a deposit."
"Given my mom's sleep patterns, this thing will need to be used long-term, and I'll be troubling my sister-in-law a lot in the future!"
After saying that, he left without giving Lu Zhengjun a chance to refuse.
When Lu Zhengjun got home that evening, he told Su Yueya about it.
"Crescent Moon, is this troublesome to do?"
Lu Zhengjun belatedly realized that she felt somewhat ashamed.
He should have asked Yueya's opinion first before replying to Wei Jinxiang.
"It's no trouble at all."
There are machines in the space.
Su Yueya simply prepared the medicinal herbs and put them into the machine with some effort.
Besides, I was going to do it for Lu Zhengjun anyway, so doing more was just a side thing.
Lu Zhengjun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then this money..." He looked at the five yuan and felt a little helpless.
"If they want to give it, then give it."
Su Yueya completely understood, just like Zhao Huijuan said she wanted to use the money to buy vegetables.
"But five yuan is too much."
"The cost of sleep aid pills is very cheap. I only need to charge the cost price. They can buy a month's supply for just one yuan."
"So cheap?"
Lu Zhengjun was both surprised and delighted.
One yuan, enough for one month.
When divided up to each day, it only costs three cents.
Most importantly, this sleep aid pill is not available for purchase outside. If a substitute could be easily found, Wei Jinxiang's mother wouldn't have had to endure so long before finally getting a good night's sleep.
However, Lu Zhengjun only realized this after saying it was cheap.
Su Yueya only charged the cost price; if it were a real sale, the price would not be this.
"Crescent Moon, thank you for your hard work."
One yuan a month is not a burden for Wei Jinxiang.
"What's so hard about this? Have you forgotten what I do for a living?"
Su Yueya didn't feel tired at all while doing these things; on the contrary, she found them very interesting.
