"As long as the teeth come out before the age of one and a half, it's normal. Some people's teeth are slow to come out at the beginning, but then they come out one by one, and the speed is faster. And hers has already come out, so you don't have to worry, there's nothing wrong."
"That's fine. My eldest uncle and aunt always tell me the old saying that late teething means you'll have no worries about food and clothing in the future, and you'll raise a child who eats for free and doesn't work..."
Tian Cai was washing clothes while listening to Luo Xiuyan's complaints. She had been married for five or six years and had long lost the cautiousness she had when she first got married. Because she gave birth to the only grandson for the Liu family, her status rose instantly, and even her uncle and aunt did not dare to compete with her for limelight.
Overall, life is quite comfortable.
"Hey?" Luo Xiuyan mumbled for a long time, then suddenly remembered something. She lifted her butt and looked outside. Seeing no one at the door, she leaned over to Tian Cai and whispered, "Is Yan Zhiqing still single?"
Tian Cai: "It seems so. I haven't heard that he's dating anyone."
"Tsk tsk—" Luo Xiuyan confirmed her suspicions and sat back in her chair, unable to help but sigh. "My mother-in-law asked me to help introduce someone, but I can't. Yan Zhiqing is like a mountain—you can only admire him from afar, but you can't even reach him. Qiu Zhiqing is as beautiful as a fairy, but he still can't win her over. And he's from the city. There's no girl in our village who is worthy of him."
Luo Xiuyan paused after saying this and glanced at Tian Cai out of the corner of her eye. In fact, she felt that Tian Cai was worthy of him, but this girl had never shown any intention of finding a partner, so she didn't say much.
"It's okay, you don't have to be jealous of others. Your husband, Mr. Liu, is doing well too." Tian Cai wrung out the clothes in her hands, stood up and hung them on the rope in the yard, teasing her with a smile.
"We're an old married couple, what's the point of talking about good and bad things?" Luo Xiuyan said without a trace of embarrassment. "There's a movie showing at the commune primary school tonight. I think it's about Bethune. Do you want to go? If you do, I'll save a seat for you."
Watching open-air movies is a rare pleasure for people in this era. Both adults and children love it very much. However, for Tian Cai, who has seen various movies on the big screen, watching movies is not very interesting. She would go to join in the fun when she was bored, but now she doesn't want to go.
She shook her head and said, "Not tonight. I have some herbs to deal with tonight. Maybe next time!"
After seeing Luo Xiuyan off, Tian Cai carried the sheets and quilt covers to the river to wash them. He didn't know how many times he would have to fetch water at home.
"Dean Tian, I have your package, it's quite big!"
The people had not arrived yet, but the sound came first. Tian Cai opened the door and saw two young soldiers from the sanatorium carrying a large package.
The package was a suitcase, and it looked like it had been checked and confirmed to be in good condition before being delivered to her.
Tian Cai has become accustomed to such situations. Due to the special nature of her identity, many things have to undergo secondary inspection before being delivered, which also ensures Tian Cai's safety.
"Where did you send it from?"
Tian Cai looked at the weight and it seemed to be quite a heavy burden. She didn't know who could send her so many things.
"It was sent from Guangdong Province." A young soldier said with gritted teeth.
Tian Cai was puzzled. She didn't know anyone in Guangdong Province. Could it be a patient?
The two young soldiers put the things down and left. Tian Cai thought about it and decided to carry the package to the pharmacy. It was really heavy, at least fifty or sixty kilograms.
After opening the box, he saw two cloth bags, wrapped in square shapes. Tian Cai opened the largest one and found that it was full of medical books!
There were famous and unknown ones, and some were even badly damaged. Among them, she also saw several that Grandpa Honda used to treasure. Most of them were in traditional Chinese characters, and there were even manuscripts written with a brush.
Tian Cai's eyes lit up. Which cute fairy had sent this to her? It touched her heart.
Tian Cai picked up each book and looked at them carefully. When she placed them neatly on the table, she discovered that there were other cloth bags underneath.
She opened another, smaller cloth bag.
As soon as he opened it, Tian Cai was almost blinded by the golden color. It turned out that it was full of yellow croaker!
These big yellow croakers weighed ten taels each and were arranged in two rows. She counted them and found there were fourteen in total.
Tian Cai took a deep breath and took away the cloth bag containing the yellow croaker. There was a cloth-wrapped box underneath. When he opened it, he saw that it was full of jewelry.
Earrings, hairpins, several necklaces and bracelets, and even hairpins, all of which were classical in style and intricately crafted. Although Tian Cai didn't like wearing them, he still recognized some of them. Most of these jewellery were made of gold, inlaid with rubies and jadeite, but they were not very big. What was more precious was probably the craftsmanship.
Judging from the age of these things, they should be old items handed down from generation to generation.
There was also a black jar in the corner of the box, the mouth of which was tied tightly with cloth of the same color. Judging from the shape, Tian Cai did not open it rashly.
When she took the box aside, she finally saw a letter at the bottom. After opening it, she was first stunned by the flamboyant handwriting, and then she began to read the contents.
After she finished reading, she couldn't help but sigh. She didn't know what to say about the second master of the Bian family. Was he loyal or sensible?
These things were mailed by Bian Zian from Gangcheng. Tian Cai guessed how he transported the things to Guangdong Province, and then mailed them to Tian Cai from Guangdong Province.
Bian Zi'an said that he had found these things in the Cai family. Many of Cai Ping's valuable jewelry had been sold or given away by Quan Xiangrong. Only these smaller gems were kept because he did not like them.
In fact, these were all made by a very famous jewelry master in the Qing Dynasty. The most valuable thing is not the material, but the craftsmanship.
Anyone with a little background would understand this, but Quan Xiangrong, who climbed up from the bottom, had never heard of it, so he mistook fish eyes for pearls.
The medical books were found in the Cai family's house. Since Tian Cai chose to practice medicine, they might be useful, so I sent them to him.
Of course, there were a few books that the Bian family needed, and he said very frankly that he asked someone to copy them and send the originals over.
As for those big yellow croakers, he bought them in exchange for them by selling the shops and houses of the Cai family in Gangcheng.
The huge Cai family has lost most of its wealth in the hands of Quan Xiangrong over the years, and all that remains is a shop and a house, oh no, there is also a pharmaceutical workshop.
He also directly stated that he sold the house, shop and workshop to the Bian family. Of course, the price was slightly lower than the market price.
As for the money from the sales, considering that there was no one left in the Cai family, he directly sent all the things to Tian Cai, his apprentice, and also sent Cai Chuanbai's ashes.
From then on, there was no longer any connection with the Cai family in Hong Kong City.
