Because there was a strange man sleeping in the same bed with her, Jiang Yuwei didn't sleep much all night. She got up in a hurry at dawn to look for a bamboo forest, ready to cut some bamboo to make a small bed.

She thought that since she had to go to the town to buy herbs for Ning Huaizhi today, she could just take some of the bean sprouts that she had soaked in the spiritual spring water a few days ago to the town to sell and save some money. With one more patient in the future, she would need money many more times.

While thinking, Jiang Yuwei walked to a dense bamboo forest. She found some thick bamboos and started chopping them. Soon she had chopped down more than a dozen bamboos. Although it was a bit hard to carry, she didn't want to go through the trouble of carrying them in two trips. She just carried some in one hand and took them home.

As soon as she entered the door, Jiang Yuwei split all the bamboos into two halves with a knife and dried them in the sun. She then went into the house to check on Ning Huaizhi who was still sleeping. It seemed that he did not sleep well last night, perhaps because his wound was too painful.

Jiang Yuwei pulled Ning Zhao and Ning Wan, who had just gotten up, and said softly:

"Zhao'er, Wan'er, I have to go to town to get medicine for your father today, so I won't take you with me. You should stay at home and take good care of your father. I will be back in half a day."

After hearing what Jiang Yuwei said, Ning Zhao and Ning Wan nodded obediently.

After Jiang Yuwei made all the arrangements, she went to Chen Guixiang to ask for money to buy medicine:

"Mom, I have to go to town today to get medicine for Huaizhi. He was in so much pain last night that he couldn't sleep all night. He must take medicine today, otherwise the wound will get worse."

Chen Guixiang, who was eating in the kitchen, heard this and said coldly:

"Humph, I think he deserves to be in so much pain. He has been in the army for so many years and never sent a penny home. Now he is paralyzed and comes home to ask for money for medical treatment. Didn't Mr. Ning say yesterday that his disease cannot be cured? Let's just put it off like this. It's good enough to give him food to eat. I don't have money to pay for his medical treatment!"

Jiang Yuwei frowned upon hearing this and said:

"Mom has money to give to my second brother to gamble, but she has no money to save Huaizhi's life?"

Chen Guixiang slammed the chopsticks on the table and shouted:

"You bastard, I spent so much money on my boss to marry you. Now you are taking care of him. It's good enough that he can have something to eat. Don't even think about using my money to treat his illness."

Jiang Yuwei had expected that Chen Guixiang would not easily take out the money, so she spoke directly:

"Is there any mother like you? You killed Zhou Su with medicine, and now you want to ignore the life and death of your own son."

When Chen Guixiang heard the name Zhou Su, her body trembled noticeably and her face turned much paler:

"You, how do you know Zhou Su? Who told you?"

Jiang Yuwei sneered and continued:

"If you don't want this matter to become known to everyone, then take out the money as soon as possible to treat your son's illness!"

Chen Guixiang seemed to not want to bother with her anymore, so she took out her purse from her waist, poured out ten copper coins and handed them to Jiang Yuwei reluctantly. Seeing that she was so stingy that she only gave her ten copper coins to go to town to buy medicine, Jiang Yuwei reached out and snatched the purse from Chen Guixiang's hand and ran out the door, shouting as she ran:

"Mom, I don't know how much money it will cost to buy the medicine. I'll take your purse first. If there is any money left, I will bring it back to you without missing a cent."

"You, you jinx, give me back my wallet, you..."

When Chen Guixiang reacted and stood up to chase after her, Jiang Yuwei had already run away. She could only hold the door frame with one hand and cover her heart with the other, cursing non-stop:

"You're such a jinx! You're really making me die of anger! Oh, my wallet!"

Jiang Yuwei didn't care about Chen Guixiang who was furious behind her. She ran to catch up with Uncle Ning Wu's ox cart, took out five cents from Chen Guixiang's purse and handed it to Uncle Ning Wu.

Uncle Ning Wu asked with a smile:

"Big Boss's wife, go to town by yourself today."

Jiang Yuwei also nodded and smiled at him:

"Yes, Uncle Wu, I'm going to town to buy some things."

Seeing that the cart was almost full, Uncle Ning did not delay any longer and drove the ox cart to the town.

After arriving in the town, Jiang Yuwei first asked someone about the town’s vegetable market, then found a piece of vacant land and started setting up a stall selling bean sprouts.

Many people have never seen such bean sprouts and don’t know how to eat them. Jiang Yuwei saw a stall selling seasonings nearby and bought some seasoning noodles directly. She made a plate of cold bean sprouts on the spot for the customers to try.

Because it is still early spring, many green vegetables have not yet grown. Most people are still eating the autumn vegetables and pickled vegetables they stockpiled last winter. Naturally, they all want to eat some fresh vegetables. Now that Jiang Yuwei asked the guests to taste them, everyone was eager to try.

An old lady carrying a basket of vegetables came forward to try a bite, and her eyes lit up instantly:

"Delicious, delicious, girl, what kind of dish is this?"

Jiang Yuwei smiled and handed the bean sprouts to the old lady and said:

"It's made with these bean sprouts. It's a crispy cold bean sprout salad. You can take some home and try it."

The lady nodded quickly and said:

"How much is this bunch of bean sprouts?"

Jiang Yuwei thought for a moment and then smiled:

"Five cents. I don't have much with me today. Once I sell them, they'll be gone."

When the old lady heard Jiang Yuwei say this, she hurriedly said:

"Not expensive, not expensive, give me four bundles quickly."

Jiang Yuwei hurriedly took four bundles and handed them to the old lady, who paid the money and left.

When everyone saw that someone had bought something, they all came up to try it. Everyone who had tried it said it was delicious. The basket of bean sprouts that Jiang Yuwei brought was quickly sold out. Many people who didn't buy anything asked Jiang Yuwei when she would come to set up the stall next time.

Jiang Yuwei calculated that the market would be open in seven days, and by then the new bean sprouts would be ready. She could get more bean sprouts to sell, so she told everyone:

"I will come to the market in seven days to sell bean sprouts. If you want to eat some, just find me at the market."

Now that she had made money, Jiang Yuwei went to the seasoning stall and bought a few more commonly used seasonings before leaving. In her previous life, her cooking skills were very good. If she could research more food that was not available here and sell it, it would be a way to make money.

Jiang Yuwei thought that there was still a lot of empty space in the fertile fields in her space, so she went to buy some different seeds to plant. After all, the food grown with spiritual spring water in the space was indeed much more delicious.

After finishing her work, Jiang Yuwei hurried to find the pharmacy and got the medicine according to the prescription given by Uncle Ning. Then she went to find Uncle Ning's ox cart and followed them back to the village.

Before arriving home, Jiang Yuwei first saved the things she bought today and the money she earned into the space, and then she entered the house with peace of mind. As soon as Jiang Yuwei entered the house, she saw Chen Guixiang sitting at the door waiting for her, with an anxious look in her eyes.

"Hurry up and give me your wallet. How much did you spend?"

Jiang Yuwei smiled and handed the purse to Chen Guixiang and said:

"The round trip by ox cart cost ten copper coins, and the medicine for seven days cost fifty copper coins."

Chen Guixiang said angrily:

"You are not worthy of riding in a bullock cart. It's not far to the town. Can't you just walk there? Besides, Ning Huaizhi is already paralyzed. What's the point of taking medicine for so many days?"
