Shi Wangting immediately glared at Shi Mohuai. He didn't have a penny in his pocket when he went out. Was he just going out for a walk in this hot weather? Wasn't that stupid?
Shi Mohuai is the worm in his stomach, and he can understand everything with just one look.
He took out five yuan from his pocket and gave it to Shi Wangting, saying, "Buy Wenwen whatever she wants to eat. Don't put the money in your pocket, you little brat. If I find out that you haven't taken good care of her, I'll come back and skin you alive!"
Shi Wangting: “…”
How could he dare to do that even though he was threatened like that?
Shi Wangting held the five dollars in his hand and almost burst into tears.
Everyone knew that he liked to buy books. Two-thirds of his monthly living expenses were spent on books. At first, they were willing to sponsor him financially.
Knowing that he had the support of his brothers, Shi Wangting still spent lavishly on buying books even though he had no living expenses.
Seeing the piles of books everywhere in the house, the brothers finally realized the consequences of their aiding and abetting the evil, and decided not to support Shi Wangting again.
Shi Wangting hadn't seen five dollars for a long time.
He refused to lend it and just said he wanted to take Tao Wenwen out for a stroll, and he actually took out a five-yuan bill!
Isn't this a bit too biased?
Shi Wangting stared, wanting to question him, but the money felt so good in his hand. Even if he took Tao Wenwen out for a walk, it wouldn't cost him more than five yuan, so the rest...
Shi Wangting chuckled secretly in his heart.
Of course, the rest is his. He must charge for accompanying her shopping. Since they are brothers and sisters, he can give her a discount and just charge her two dollars.
There was another book I had my eye on yesterday, but there was only one copy left in the bookstore. If I didn’t buy it quickly, it might be gone.
Shi Wangting was eager to make a move, and gave Tao Wenwen a flattering smile, "Where do you want to go? I will definitely accompany you at the risk of my life!"
He's willing to risk his life just to go out shopping, who would dare to need him to accompany them?
Tao Wenwen looked at Shi Wangting's eyes, which were wide open and calculating, and did not refuse outright. "Just look around. Is there any Chinese medicine store around here?"
"I know." Shi Wangting was very enthusiastic. "There's a Chinese medicine shop across the street from the place we met yesterday. I'll take you there as soon as I finish washing the dishes."
The words have changed. Now people no longer say "bumped into" but "encountered".
Shi Mohuai and Shi Zengyue looked at each other silently, and smiled secretly with tacit understanding.
They got up at dawn in the morning and talked about going out today, leaving Shi Wangting and Tao Wenwen behind. I don't know if the two of them will quarrel.
They made a bet, and Shi Mohuai said that he only needed one move to ensure that Shi Wangting and Tao Wenwen would not quarrel.
The bet is five dollars.
Shi Zengyue accepted the bet, but unexpectedly lost.
He forgot about the money.
As the two walked out of the house side by side, Shi Zengyue immediately said, "Big brother is so mean. You thought of this idea so early and let me jump into the trap. You won the favor of the big brother in front of Wenwen, but the money was paid by me, the unknown third brother."
"All's fair in war. You're still my teacher. You can't blame me if you lose." Shi Mohuai said proudly and walked away quickly.
Not long after the two left, Shi Wangting cleaned up the dishes and took Tao Wenwen out.
The sun is not that strong in the morning, so Tao Wenwen has the time to stroll around and learn about the current market conditions of medicinal materials.
At that time, Western medicine had not yet entered the market in large quantities, and drug control was strict, so most people, especially villagers in the countryside, still took Chinese medicine to treat their illnesses when they were sick.
