Chapter 225: Debt

The two walked for a long time along the beach, and Jiang Wan taught Jiang Cao how to catch crabs, dig out scallops, and identify seaweed and several types of poisons.

People who often go to the sea must have a serious understanding of the poisons in the shallow sea. Otherwise, if you are suddenly poisoned, even gods will be unable to save you.

Jiang Cao dug up some clams, caught two crabs, and then filled her basket and bucket with kelp.

It looks quite satisfactory, how should I put it, the requirements have been met.

Jiang Cao looked very happy. She put the basket aside and followed Jiang Wan to help her find the tape.

Just when I dug out two and was about to take them over, I saw Jiang Wan suddenly step into the sea and pull something out.

"What is this? A branch? Are you short of firewood?"

Jiang Wan said nothing and acquiesced. But this was no ordinary branch.

The thing in her hand looks like a branch, but it is actually a kind of coral in the sea called golden thread coral.

The surface of its branches is like golden threads, and it has different colors when viewed from different angles, giving it a very metallic texture.

It's so beautiful when exposed to sunlight.

She didn't know whether this thing had any medicinal value, but she knew it could be used as jewelry.

The bracelets made of golden thread sea willow, with its faint golden threads and beautiful luster, are no worse than the beads made of golden thread nanmu.

I don’t know if it’s worth the money here, so I’ll take it back first.

Jiang Wan took a quick look at it and put it in the bucket. If you don't look closely, it's just a yellow, dry branch.

Oh, God really loves her. There is always a good reward for chasing the sea.

From now on, you don’t have to rely on selling seafood to make money. Just go to the seaside more often when you have nothing to do, and money will jump into your pocket.

Jiang Wan couldn't help laughing as she thought about it.

Jiang Cao felt much more relaxed. After filling the baskets and buckets, the two of them walked back together and only separated at a fork in the road.

After I got home, I hadn't finished dealing with the tape in the bucket when I suddenly heard a commotion in the yard. Someone was shouting for help and carrying the injured to the pharmacy.

She leaned over and looked, her eyes suddenly froze. The person who entered the pharmacy was wearing the same clothes as Jiang Cao!

She remembered clearly what she had just seen.

How could it be ginger grass? !

Jiang Wan immediately washed her hands and went to the pharmacy.

When I walked into the house, I saw A Niang cutting the hair on the back of Jiang Cao's head. Baozhu picked up the slightly longer hair on the ground and combed it. A Nan was helping with alcohol and other medicine bottles.

Once the hair was cut off, the wound on the back of the head was exposed. It was a big cut, and it was still bleeding.

The two ladies who brought the guests couldn't help but wipe away their tears when they saw this.

"It's really heartless. Xiaocao works diligently every day. Not only do they not give her enough food and scold her every day, but now they beat her so severely. If I hadn't heard the noise and went in to take a look, no one would have cared for the child even when she fell to the ground."

"I just heard a quarrel at his house, but I didn't know what they were quarreling about. Ah Zhen, do you know why this girl was beaten?"

"I heard it. They said Xiaocao was out flirting with men and didn't care about finding seafood. I got a bunch of seaweed to fool them."

Jiang Wan was stunned. She was also involved in this.

"Auntie, Jiang Cao is not having an affair with anyone. She went fishing with me today. She said she didn't recognize many of the sea creatures, so I just happened to teach her along the way."

Yin Huaixi looked up at her daughter, then immediately lowered her head to treat Jiang Cao's wound.

When the ladies who sent the people heard Jiang Wan's words, they immediately became furious and scolded Jiang Cao's mother-in-law and her husband.

After a scolding, the two of them walked away pulling each other.

What should I do if I don't leave? I can't ask them to pay for the medicine and the medical expenses. They are kind-hearted and save people, so how can I ask them to pay for it?

Yin Huaixi had no intention of asking them for money. Jiang Cao already had a husband's family, so naturally she should ask her husband's family for the money.

However, it had been almost an hour since the person was sent, and Jiang Cao's in-laws hadn't shown up yet, which seemed quite cruel.

"Her back is soaked with blood. Wanwan, go get me some clothes. Anan, go get some warm water."

Jiang Cao was lying unconscious in the small room, and soon several people worked together to help her change into clean clothes.

"Wanwan, when you cook later, make more porridge."

This meant that Jiang Cao was to stay in the pharmacy. Jiang Wan had no objection, but she wanted to see when Jiang Cao's in-laws would come.

News spreads quickly in the village. For the sake of our reputation, shouldn’t we pay the money before evening?

Jiang Wan overestimated that family. For two days, they didn't even show up.

After two days, Jiang Cao had woken up and could even walk to the food store and do some simple labor.

The mother and daughter did not let her go and provided her with good food, drink and medicine, which made Jiang Cao nervous.

"Doctor Yin, my head wound is really healed. I don't feel dizzy or vomit now, and it doesn't hurt at all unless I touch the wound. I'll go back and ask them to pay."

"They won't listen to you. Your injury hasn't fully healed yet, be careful not to get hurt worse when you go back."

Yin Huaixi refused to let him go, as his family didn't lack food anyway.

Jiang Wan's unconditional support for A'niang, coupled with a little bit of sympathy for Jiang Cao, has meant that the whole family has been eating well recently.

It was peaceful, happy and relaxing here, and Jiangcao was more than happy to stay. But she didn't pay for the medicine, so she felt uncomfortable. No matter how delicious the food was, it tasted a bit nauseous.

After five days, the family finally couldn't sit still anymore and sent an old woman over.

Jiang Wan remembered her because she was the one who cursed at Jiang Cao by the ditch, saying that Jiang Cao was a chicken that didn't lay eggs.

She came to the pharmacy today and smiled as she walked in, without any sign of meanness on her face.

"Dr. Yin, you are so kind. Look at this girl. She is cured in no time. You are indeed a miracle doctor. Everyone says that you are a kind person with a good heart!"

Put on the compliment first, and praise Yin Huaixi for his kindness.

Yin Huaixi had a professional smile on his face as he clattered on the abacus.

"This is just my duty as a doctor. Aunt Liao, please pay for your daughter-in-law's medicine. The total is 820 coins. I know that it's not easy for you, my fellow villagers. I'll give you 800 coins after deducting the decimal."

Eight hundred!!!

Mrs. Liao was breathing rapidly and almost fainted.

Is there silver stuck on Jiang Cao's head? It's so expensive! She needs to save up 800 coins for a year!

Give it to a little bitch to treat her illness? No way!

"Doctor Yin, here, here, our family doesn't have that much money at the moment, can you please be more generous? You can keep a record of it first, and we will pay you back when we have enough money?"

Yin Huaixi directly exposed her.

"You want to cheat me?"
