Yue Jiuyue planted all the seeds she bought from the town's general store that day, except that she dug the pond for planting lotus flowers a bit too big, turning it into a lake.
None of that matters. What matters is the roses or cacti that Yue Jiuyue has been longing for. She took this opportunity to buy some seeds from the store and plant them. She just doesn't know when they will grow up so she can see the thorny cacti blooming and bearing fruit, or see the walls covered with red and pink roses. It would be absolutely stunning!
Moreover, she was still thinking about the peach blossom grove, pear orchard, and apple orchard. She hadn't found any fruit seedlings for sale yet, and in the two years since she transmigrated, her family hadn't bought any fruit to eat. Although she had sown a few seeds, she couldn't guarantee they would survive. She had tried it in the modern world, and the seeds she buried would sprout, but then die after a while. She didn't know which step in the process went wrong.
Also, she wanted to build a workshop because everyone was busy farming the land left behind by the departed clansmen, and she couldn't find anyone to help her!
There were so many things she wanted to do. Some she could do herself, like trying to plant some seeds, though there was no guarantee they would survive. Some things her family did, like digging the pond that was as big as a lake. But some things required many people, like building a workshop or reclaiming the remaining 500-plus acres of land.
Well, it's just over 500 mu, not counting the hills owned by her four adopted sons.
“Mother, the doctor in the county town said the same thing as Dr. Li. We plan to rest at home for two days and then go to the prefecture town to take a look.”
Lin Chaodong looked much more haggard. Mainly because he was away from home with his wife and children, he was always worried. He couldn't sleep well at night, and he had to spend money on food, lodging, and doctor's visits. Even drinking water cost money. The money was going out in a flash, but his illness hadn't improved. He was anxious and frustrated.
That's not just a few dozen coins or a few taels of silver. The three of them have already spent nearly a hundred taels of silver from Yue Jiuyue, and they will continue to spend even more. He doesn't know how he can ever be filial to Yue Jiuyue in this lifetime.
Lin Chaodong wasn't the only one who thought this way; Liu felt the same way. Yue Jiuyue was so willing to spend money on her and Dazhuang—more than she could ever earn in her entire life. She truly felt that she could never repay this kindness, even if she worked like a slave for the rest of her life.
"Okay, go get some rest. We can talk about anything after you've had a good night's sleep."
Yue Jiuyue gently touched Dazhuang's face and watched the family of three leave.
She frowned, watching the family of three walk away, feeling a little sorry for Xiaoman'er.
The eldest son and his wife had unknowingly neglected their daughter.
Although she knew that it was already difficult for Lin Chaodong to take two patients to another city for medical treatment by himself, since he had never traveled far before, and he had only been to the county town a few times before, when he sold roasted sweet potatoes the winter before last and sweet potato seedlings last spring. This was his first time going to the prefectural city, which is why he looked so tired when he came back.
If he were to bring Xiaoman along, he couldn't guarantee that she would always be well-behaved and obedient, nor did he have the energy to take care of another person. Therefore, it was the best choice for Xiaoman to stay at home.
However, she could tell that Xiaoman wanted to be with her parents; if she stayed at home, she would be a left-behind child.
