Luo Yunhe knew very well that it was understandable that the villagers were worried that she would break her promise and were angry.
But she wasn't angry. Instead, she maintained a friendly demeanor and accepted the order from them.
After a brief glance, Luo Yunhe began calling out names. For each name called, she counted out the corresponding number of pieces of wood.
After a flurry of activity, they finally finished counting all the pieces of wood in front of them, which took an hour.
Luo Yunhe took out the appropriate amount of silver and let the villagers distribute it among themselves.
The villagers were already skeptical of Luo Yunhe's promise and filled with worry, but when they saw with their own eyes that Luo Yunhe actually took out such a huge amount of silver, they were all shocked.
You should know that each of them only received thirty taels of silver, which wasn't even enough to build a house.
However, at this moment, Luo Yunhe took out so much silver without hesitation, which finally calmed their previous doubts and anxieties.
Everyone was overjoyed after receiving the money. After all, they had worked very hard cutting down trees these past two days.
"Um, Madam Su, do you still need some wood? How much? We'll get you some more tomorrow!"
"Yes, yes! Don't blame us for our less-than-ideal attitude earlier, after all, we were worried you wouldn't keep your promise..."
"Thank you all. I have enough wood for now, and I don't need any more for the time being. I'll come to you again if I need more!"
Hearing that he no longer needed everyone was a little disappointing, but they were still very happy to have earned so much money in just two days.
The villagers gradually dispersed, and Luo Yunhe breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the large pile of wood, she unceremoniously opened the system.
After all, she has a lot of points. Although she is still far from reaching 10,000 points, she can still exchange them for some paints and the like.
She used the paint she had exchanged to apply several colors to the wood.
After finishing, Luo Yunhe tidied up briefly and went to town.
After three days of observation, although Su Jingxuan's injuries have not improved much, at least there are no other aftereffects.
With the help of the medicine boy, Luo Yunhe had much less to worry about.
"Husband, I'm planning to build a house!" Luo Yunhe said, taking out a piece of paper and laying it in front of Su Jingxuan. Su Jingxuan was stunned when he saw the plans on it.
"this……"
"This is where I'll be brewing wine. Because brewing is a very serious matter, the environment must be clean and hygienic. This is our house..."
Luo Yunhe gave a brief explanation.
Su Jingxuan nodded, but he soon became conflicted. Given their current situation, it would definitely require a lot of money to renovate such a large house.
Not to mention, he said he also needed some special tools and such, all of which were custom-made and would cost money. In his current state, he simply couldn't provide him with any more convenience.
"Wife, how about we wait a little longer? Once my leg is healed, I'll go hunting for you to earn money..."
Luo Yunhe smiled, stretched out her calloused little hand, and held his hand tightly: "Silly boy, you are injured now, the most important thing is to focus on recovering. As for things at home, you don't need to worry about them, I'll take care of everything."
"Besides..." she whispered in Su Jingxuan's ear for a while.
When Su Jingxuan heard these words, his eyes widened like saucers, his face filled with astonishment. He never imagined that his wife was so capable, earning so much money in just one day yesterday.
The thought of lying helplessly in a hospital bed, watching her struggle and suffer alone for the family, filled him with a pang of sorrow and self-reproach.
As the pillar of the family, he should have shouldered the responsibility of supporting the family, but now he has become a useless person who needs his wife to take care of him.
This sense of powerlessness caused him immense pain, as if he had lost his dignity as a husband. It also caused his wife to suffer.
The deeper he thought about it, the more intense his inner pain became, and he felt utterly ashamed to face his wife.
However, at that moment, Luo Yunhe seemed to sense his sadness and gently but firmly held his hand, saying, "Don't think too much. Your most important task now is to focus on recovering and getting better as soon as possible. I'm counting on you to go out and earn money after you've healed! So, you have to be strong and not let these negative emotions bother you."
He knew these profound truths better than anyone else, but this guilt prevented him from getting over it for a long time.
Luo Yunhe knew that although he appeared gentle and refined on the surface, he actually harbored great ambitions.
He would never allow anyone else to interfere with things he could handle himself. Just like with her, he was definitely thinking about earning money to support the family and not letting her suffer.
Luo Yunhe quickly changed the subject, unwilling to continue on this topic.
As Luo Yunhe talked about her plans, she tried to distract him while also encouraging him to build his confidence.
As night deepened, the sky gradually darkened, and patches of dark clouds spread rapidly like ink, obscuring the last rays of the sun.
Suddenly, streaks of dazzling lightning flashed across the sky, accompanied by deafening thunder, as if to tear the entire world apart.
The wind howled, making the trees sway and the leaves rustle.
Immediately afterwards, large raindrops began to fall from the sky, as clear and sparkling as pearls, yet carrying an endless coolness and moisture.
These raindrops, as if propelled by a powerful force, fell rapidly and densely, forming curtains of water that evoked the image of a waterfall.
This sudden downpour came without warning, like a furious attack launched by nature. It was so violent that even the Luoyun River, which was sleeping soundly in its cabin, was awakened.
Luo Yunhe rubbed her eyes, listening somewhat groggily to the pattering rain outside the window.
When he realized how heavy the rain was outside, his brow immediately furrowed. He thought of his dilapidated thatched hut and a sense of worry welled up inside him.
Will such a downpour put a heavy burden on that fragile roof?
He was worried not only about the house itself, but also about the items inside. If they got wet, they would become unusable. Thinking of this, his brow furrowed even more, and his mood grew increasingly heavy.
