The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 208 Experiment
He locked the door, trying to block out all the disturbances from the outside world.
Her heart beat like a drum, so fast that it almost jumped out of her chest. All this happened suddenly, making her feel excited and uneasy. It was not until the cold silver and copper coins in her hands hit the table, making a crisp and pleasant sound, that she woke up from her dream - all this was real, she and the children had finally escaped from the sea of suffering and gained precious freedom and wealth.
Tears of joy blurred her eyes. When the two young girls saw their mother expressing such true feelings, they quickly came over, wrapped their little arms around her, and gave her warmth and comfort.
Xie Xinghua stroked their heads, her smile full of tenderness and hope: "From now on, we no longer have to depend on others to make a living. With this money, when your sister comes back, our family of five will be truly reunited. Mom promises that you will never go hungry or cold again."
The house was full of warmth, and in the next room, Jiang Wangshan, lying on the hospital bed, although weak, could feel the drastic changes in the outside world.
Hearing Xie Xinghua's hopeful words, his heart was filled with complex emotions, both excited and bitter, and he could only utter vague sounds, which were a desire for a better future and a helpless sigh for his current situation.
Xie Xinghua walked over quickly and gently unfolded a few heavy silver ingots in her palms. They flickered with a warm luster under the dim candlelight, as if they were the light of hope for the family's future.
"Don't worry, I can support this family."
Her voice was firm yet gentle, and every word carried her commitment and responsibility to her family.
Jiang Wangshan lay on the bed, moving his dry lips with difficulty. Although his words were unclear, the concern he was trying to express was unusually clear, like a warm spring breeze blowing across his heart, making one vaguely hear the whisper of "thank you for your hard work."
Xie Xinghua's eyes were slightly red. She gently stroked the rough back of her husband's hand with her fingertips. Tears welled up in her eyes and she shook her head silently. Her eyes were full of sympathy for the difficulties of life and deep understanding for her lover.
In the face of these heavy piles of silver, all the hardships of the past seem insignificant.
She had already planned everything in her mind, how to use this precious silver to improve the family's situation. The once abandoned land would be cultivated again, the barren land would become fertile, enough to provide food and clothing for the whole family, the children would be able to wear new clothes, and smiles would return to everyone's face.
At the same time, Su Yu stood quietly by the window, taking in all this warm and slightly bitter scene.
Xie Xinghua's successful division of the family business and unexpected wealth brought her both joy and regret for her friend's fate.
She turned to Jiang Ziling beside her and said in a gentle but affirmative tone: "Sister-in-law has already set up her own business and has enough money. Life will not be too difficult. You don't have to worry too much."
Jiang Ziling nodded heavily, but his eyes could not hide the deep worry.
His eldest brother's illness was like a huge rock hanging on his heart. Only after his leg injury healed could he really do something for the family. This sense of responsibility ignited a burning fighting spirit in his heart.
Although the injury on his leg was still aching, the gradually recovering sense of strength gave him great comfort, indicating that he would be fully recovered soon.
Just as Jiang Ziling was immersed in his own thoughts, he suddenly noticed the subtle changes in Su Yu's conversation with his sister-in-law, and doubts arose in his heart.
"Ayu, you seemed to be holding back when talking to your sister-in-law today. Did something happen to Daya?"
His insight surprised Su Yu a little. She didn't want to add burden to Xie Xinghua at this time, but facing Jiang Ziling, she didn't need to hide.
"Yes, Daya...encountered some misfortune."
She spoke the truth with a choked voice.
"What? How is this possible?"
Jiang Ziling's voice trembled with shock. Such a good child had to undergo such a change in just two days.
He felt heartbroken, knowing full well what this meant to the girl, and his resentment towards Zhao increased.
Seeing that he was heartbroken, Su Yu quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, I already have a solution for Daya's situation."
Jiang Ziling looked up suddenly, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. As long as A Yu said there was a way, there must be a solution.
Su Yu briefly described the whole incident and mentioned the sale of the cookbook.
"What did you say? One hundred taels of silver?"
Jiang Ziling's eyes widened in surprise. Su Yu smiled lightly, with a hint of joking: "Looking at your expression, it seems that you have never seen so much money before."
She took out the precious silver note from her bosom and placed it gently on the table. The thin piece of paper seemed to carry infinite possibilities.
Jiang Ziling carefully picked up the banknote and examined it as if it were a treasure. Even the little girl beside him was attracted, her little face full of curiosity and excitement.
Su Yu patiently explained, "There is indeed one hundred taels of silver on this note, but I have already paid thirty taels in advance. My house is empty, and I have no suitable place to store my precious medicinal herbs and bottles and jars. So I ordered several sets of exquisite cabinets with fine workmanship. Although they take up a lot of space and are expensive, they cost a total of sixty taels of silver. I paid thirty taels as a deposit first, and I still need to find a way to pay the rest."
The words reveal plans and expectations for the future.
Jiang Ziling was both impressed and moved by Su Yu's financial management ability and unique vision. He couldn't help but feel a little self-deprecating when he thought that relying solely on hunting was not only full of risks but also the income was far less than that.
Su Yu put away the silver note and planned their future life with Jiang Ziling. Their eyes were full of longing and confidence for the future.
The last time we went to Ning County to visit Daya, we were extremely lucky. Thanks to the help of the powerful but kind-hearted Master Shaofu, we were able to pass smoothly.
To express my gratitude, I specially selected a few bottles of beauty creams that I had carefully prepared and a few packets of special medicine powder and gave them to his wife personally.
During the conversation, the lady casually mentioned that soon their house would organize a grand banquet, and all the famous and powerful figures in Ning County would be invited.
When this was said, I couldn't help but think that this might be a great opportunity for me to promote the products I have carefully developed and let them come into the sight of more people.
However, words alone are not enough, only personal experience can show the effect, so I secretly made up my mind...
Su Yu's eyes flickered as she looked at Jiang Ziling expectantly. Guilt and uneasiness were faintly visible on her face, as if she had some unspeakable request.
Jiang Ziling took a sip of tea, his eyes flashing with a light of insight. He had already understood Su Yu's thoughts.
"So, what you mean is that we should work harder to make more beauty creams and medicinal powders and give them to them for trial first?"
