"Really? It's really useless?"
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Grandma Liu Ermei's face lit up with a moment of wild joy.
Then she feigned a regretful expression, "Alas, in that case, the Lin family's daughter-in-law... is also pitiful..."
Xue Yuchan's words clearly affected everyone, and several villagers began to whisper among themselves, glancing at Lin Qixia from time to time.
The look in their eyes could be one of sympathy or relief.
Of course, he wasn't as wary of her anymore.
even……
Many people remembered the losses they had suffered at the hands of this girl and her family, and they all wanted to get their revenge.
After all, Lin Xiao is now crippled and no longer Lin Qixia's support.
Facing the complicated gazes of the crowd, Lin Qixia remained silent.
Can someone change their expression that quickly?
Besides, isn't Gu Ciyu a kind and saintly woman?
Why are you still so vindictive?
They actually used this incident to influence the villagers' attitude towards her family. Although Gu Ciyu's medical skills are not very good at this stage, she already has some authority in the area around Xiahe Village.
The villagers all trusted her diagnosis.
And after her reminder, everyone has now realized what happened.
If she wasn't mistaken, the Lin family's next situation would be... everyone kicking them when they're down?
"Ahem~" Lin Qixia cleared her throat and said, "Gu Ciyu's words can't be taken seriously. I also know medicine, and my older brother will definitely recover in the future."
Now that she has a system that provides modern medicines, let's give it a try to my older brother.
Even without Gu Ciyu, it's certain that it can be restored!
"Hehe, Lin girl, you really know how to joke~" Grandma Liu smiled, not taking her words seriously.
Li Shufen chimed in, "Yes, I've seen your brother's condition firsthand. It seems like he hasn't gotten any better. How could you possibly cure him?"
After all, Lin Qixia had no idea how to treat patients.
For a moment, everyone thought Lin Qixia was just being impulsive and didn't take her words seriously.
On the contrary, I felt that although this girl had an eccentric personality, she was also pitifully naive and thought too simply about everything.
Lin Qixia pursed her lips, having already made up her mind, and didn't take their belittling words to heart.
More than an hour later, they finally arrived in the town.
It was almost noon, and the sun was high in the sky.
The town was bustling with activity. Zhang Dazhuang said to everyone, "Everyone, go about your business. We'll meet back at the crossroads here in the evening, and I'll take you all home."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Zhang!"
"Dazhuang, you've worked hard."
Everyone responded in unison, and they all carried their own belongings and headed into the market.
Lin Qixia thanked Zhang Dazhuang and carried her herbs toward the town. She wasn't in a hurry to sell the herbs or buy anything.
After all, most of his money was system gold coins, and he didn't actually have many copper coins.
She was too lazy to go through the hassle of exchanging gold coins for supplies and then for copper coins.
However, since she was already there, she also wanted to observe the situation in the town.
"Auntie, how much does this rice cost?" Lin Qixia asked as she walked into a grain store.
The proprietress replied, "Twenty coins a pound, young lady, would you like to buy?"
"Twenty coins?" Lin Qixia was startled by the price, which was equivalent to the price of a chicken.
You can only buy one pound, it's ridiculously expensive.
The shop owner asked her, "Are you going to buy it or not?"
Lin Qixia twitched the corner of her mouth and refused, "I'm not buying it, sorry."
After saying this, Lin Qixia turned and left.
She asked about the prices of some other items, and now she had a general idea of the prices in the Great Yin Dynasty.
"With prices like these... I'm afraid peaceful days won't last much longer." She sighed, thinking of the timeline in the original story when chaos began.
There should still be a few years before the world descends into complete chaos.
The timeline seems to have been moved forward. Could it be due to my own influence?
Lin Qixia was tired from walking around, so she found a roadside noodle stall and sat down: "Boss, give me a bowl of noodle soup, with extra slices of meat."
"Okay, please wait a moment!" the stall owner replied, and then busied himself cooking the noodles for her.
While Lin Qixia was waiting for her noodles, two people came to the next table and talked with worried expressions: "Hey, have you heard? Recently, there have been a lot of bandits in Qishan County next door. Anyone who passes through that area will be skinned alive!"
"Who hasn't heard about this? There have been several murders."
"To murder for money is absolutely deserving of death!"
"There's a famine in Qishan, isn't there? People are forced into this situation..."
"Sigh, I hope it doesn't affect our area."
Lin Qixia felt a pang of sympathy upon hearing this.
It seems impossible to avoid being affected; things are really developing at an accelerated pace.
In less than a year, famine and chaos will follow, and she should seize the time to prepare.
"Your soup noodles will cost eight coins in total," the stall owner said as he brought the noodles to her.
Perhaps seeing her muddy clothes and the fact that she was a young girl, they deliberately asked for it in advance because they were afraid she couldn't afford it.
Lin Qixia thanked him and took out the copper coin, handing it to him: "Here, take it."
"Huh?" The stall owner was stunned, surprised that she paid so readily.
Lin Qixia raised an eyebrow: "What? You don't want the money anymore?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Of course I want it!" The stall owner's expression immediately changed, and he beamed with joy at her.
He immediately became much more polite to Lin Qixia, and after taking the money, he said to her, "Please enjoy your meal, sir. If you need more soup, just let me know and I'll add more for you!"
"No."
Lin Qixia politely declined, thinking the restaurant owner was petty and she wanted to finish her meal and leave quickly.
