Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Chapter 41 It’s a pity it’s a girl

Lu Tianning's heart trembled and he looked at Lu Ke'er.

Ji had not expected Lu Ke'er to say this, and was stunned for a moment. She had always put her husband first, and although she knew that she had wronged her child and felt guilty towards him, she was powerless to change anything.

But it was this daughter who usually remained silent who expressed to them her determination and resolve to change.

"Mom, how much debt have we borrowed in total?" Lu Ke'er asked her.

"A total of thirty-two taels of silver."

"We have a lot of money left over after paying off our foreign debts."

Ji was anxious: "Ke'er, is your father's injury incurable?"

In Ji's opinion, treating illnesses costs a lot of money, which is almost a bottomless pit.

"Of course we need to treat him." Lu Ke'er was very surprised why Ji Shi had such concerns. She patiently explained, "I was just about to tell you about this. I know a doctor from Xuanhu Pavilion who is very knowledgeable about injuries. He taught me acupuncture today and said that I could give Dad acupuncture first, which would be beneficial to his injuries."

"Can you give yourself acupuncture?" Ji found it hard to believe.

"The doctor said I have talent." Lu Ke'er made up the story without blushing or breathing heavily.

She considered whether to use the name of Lingkong Divine Doctor again, but because she had just mentioned Lingkong Divine Doctor to her family not long ago, it seemed too far-fetched to say that she was Lingkong Divine Doctor's disciple now.

Sure enough, one lie needs to be covered up with countless lies.

Lu Ke'er had a headache.

She is still not good at lying.

Ji believed it and was very happy that her daughter could get guidance from the doctor in the clinic.

Lu Tianning's eyes flickered slightly.

He was becoming increasingly unable to understand his daughter.

"Dad, Mom, you don't have to worry about our family running out of money." Lu Ke'er said, "I just told you that we will have an income from Pinxianlou every month in the future."

Lu Ke'er told her family that she would provide a new dish to Pinxianlou every quarter and earn a certain amount of money. Ji didn't think much about it at the time. She thought it would only cost a few hundred coins.

A few hundred coins are just a drop in the bucket for Lu Tianning's illness.

Lu Tianning understood what was going on.

"Ke'er, how much income can we... roughly make every month?" Lu Tianning asked her.

"It's hard to say. It depends on Pinxianlou's revenue that month." Lu Ke'er carefully explained to them the details of the contract she had signed with Pinxianlou.

Ji had no idea, but Lu Tianning understood the ins and outs of it. After hearing this, he became excited.

"Ke'er, I never thought you could make this deal with Pinxianlou." As far as he knew, most restaurants bought out new products and would not adopt this long-term cooperation and profit-sharing model. He could only say that his daughter was amazing and had the talent to do business.

Unfortunately, it's a girl...

Ji was relieved when she saw that her husband approved of her daughter's actions.

In her mind, her husband's decision could not be wrong.

"And mother, Master Rong said he wants to buy your embroidery." Lu Ke'er told Ji that Rong Zhixing was interested in Ji's embroidery.

Ji was overjoyed.

"That's great. Our family...our family has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel." Ji cried with joy.

"Dad, Mom, can I go to school too?" Little Lu Mingxi didn't understand what his sister and parents said, nor did he understand what they were discussing. But he was sensitive to his parents' expressions and realized that maybe studying might not be a luxury for him anymore.

"Yes. Our Xiaoxi can go to school now." Ji said with tears in her eyes, hugging Lu Mingxi, "You should thank your sister. If it weren't for your sister, our family would still be the same."

"Mom, we are one family and we should not have different opinions." Lu Ke'er smiled faintly, touched the little kid's hair, and encouraged him, "During this period of time, learn some words from your parents. When spring comes, I will take you to the academy in Jinji Town to register."

"Academy?" Ji was stunned. "Isn't it a private school?"

Lu Keer explained: "I was in town today and asked around. There are two private schools in Jinji Town, both of which are run by scholars. There is also an academy called Yiming Academy. I heard that the dean is a very knowledgeable person with great talent. More importantly, he recruits students regardless of their background or wealth. This academy has a good reputation. However, it is also difficult to get in."

"Don't you say that you don't care about your background or how rich or poor your family is?" Ji asked.

"But it is related to the child's character and qualifications." Lu Ke'er smiled, "There is an entrance examination for Yiming Academy's enrollment. It tests the child's character and qualifications. Only those who pass the examination can be considered Yiming's students."

"So difficult?" Ji was surprised, "Then...what about private schools?"

"I don't recommend going to a private school." Lu Ke'er rejected it directly. "The two scholars in the private school are average and pedantic. If Xiaoxi goes to school there, she will definitely suffer a lot of humiliation for nothing."

When Ji heard this, she shook her head repeatedly: "Then let's go to the academy."

"So Dad, during this period of time, you should take care of your health and teach Xiaoxi some words." Lu Ke'er said.

Lu Tianning only felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

"Okay, Dad will definitely teach Xiaoxi well."

That night, the Lu family ate pork.

And Xiao Pa also ate the first piece of meat that he really wanted to eat since he was injured.

The unscrupulous benefactor is still somewhat reliable.

While gnawing on a bone, Xiao Pa thought to himself that he should stick with his benefactor from now on.

Follow your benefactor and you will have meat to eat.

That night, many families in the village were talking about the Lu family.

Lin Qin and Lin Yunhua are two of them.

"I heard that the carriage is very spacious, and the horses pulling it are tall and strong, which are rare in this town." When Lin Qin and Lin Yunhua arrived, they only saw the back of the carriage leaving the Lu family.

I heard from the villagers that the Lu family seemed to have become prosperous, so the people who brought Lu Ke'er here were very respectful to her.

"Do you think this Lu Ke'er is a little weird?" The more Lin Yunhua thought about it, the more confused and uneasy she became. "This damn girl seems to have become a different person. She is strong and domineering, and has a sharp tongue! Tell me, why did she become like this? What gave her the confidence?"

Lin Qin listened absentmindedly. She didn't see the embarrassment and misery she had imagined on Lu Ke'er at all. Lin Qin didn't know what happened to Biaozi and the others after she left.

It shouldn't be like this.

Not only was Lu Ke'er fine, but she also fawned over some important people in the town?

"Hey, are you listening to me?" Seeing that Lin Qin didn't respond for a long time, Lin Yunhua felt unhappy.

"Sister Hua, is it because of this carriage that she became braver?" Lin Qin felt uneasy.

"Because of the owner of this carriage!" Lin Yunhua looked down upon Lin Qin's stupidity. "I just don't know if the owner of this carriage is a new acquaintance of the Lu family or an old friend of the Lu family. The fact that he was able to send a girl from the Lu family back to the village from the town shows that he values ​​the Lu family very much."

Having said that, Lin Yunhua hurried home.

She had to discuss the Lu family's affairs with the head of the family.

She didn't want the Lu family's house to fly away like a cooked duck in a few days.
