The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

When Mrs. Lin returned home from town, the farce had ended.

It was the setting sun and the sky was filled with purple clouds.

The ox cart carrying people home, bathed in warm purple and red light, slowly stopped at the doorstep.

Before the people in the car shouted, the children in the yard had already come out to greet them with joy, "Grandpa and grandma, you are back! How is grandpa? Has he seen the doctor? Is grandpa healed? Is he better? Is he better?"

The repeated questions were full of the children's concern and nervousness.

Mrs. Lin smiled and got out of the car. "Everyone is talking like a string of cannonballs. Which one should I answer first? Come into the house first and let me drink some water to warm myself up."

Li Sulan and Zhang Cui'e came out closely following the children. They first saw the grandmother-in-law with a big smile on her face, then the young men in the car also had big smiles on their faces, and even the old man looked happy.

The two sisters-in-law looked at each other, and immediately felt relieved, with joy in their eyes.

is good news.

It must be good news!

Otherwise, mothers and men wouldn't be able to laugh so happily.

"Dashan, carry dad into the house." Li Sulan rubbed her hands on the corners of her clothes, turned around and ran towards the kitchen, "Mom, please come in and sit down. I'll go get you some water!"

"Have you eaten? There's a dish cooking on the stove. I'll go serve it and set the table! We can eat soon!" Zhang Cui'e was equally excited. She should have gone to the kitchen but ended up running towards the main room. Halfway through, she realized that she had gone in the wrong direction, and she slapped her head and turned back to the kitchen.

This scene made those who had not yet entered the door laugh.

After the old man was settled down and rested, the whole family sat around the table in the kitchen, and the women and children who were looking after the house finally received the good news they had been waiting for.

Mrs. Lin smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits, and her eyes and eyebrows were full of joy. "The doctor checked it out and said that the old man's condition has improved a lot. He changed the prescription and he doesn't need to continue taking ginseng slices. He just needs to drink a dose of medicine every three days to regulate his body!"

Knowing that his wife and children wanted to hear more details, Lin Dashan helped to add, "This old doctor also treated our father when he fell. He was very surprised when we went for a follow-up visit this time. He said that it was almost impossible for Dad to get better with such an injury. Even if he kept taking ginseng slices, he could only keep him alive for a few more days. Logically, after these few years, Dad's physical condition should have reached the end of its strength, but he actually got better. The old doctor said it was amazing, and he caught me and Erhe and asked us if we gave Dad any other medicine."

"The old doctor said that although our father still can't sit up, his pulse is starting to get better. Even the best ginseng slices don't have such an effect. Don't you have to ask for clarification? I told my eldest brother everything. I have been taking the medicine he prescribed, but he still doesn't believe it." Lin Erhe was very happy and deliberately kept the secret. "This time I brought new medicine for Dad, a month's supply, ten packets of medicine. Guess how much money it cost this time?"

The two women and three children who were unable to go to the town together all widened their eyes, stretched their necks and held their breath, waiting for Lin Erhe to give the answer.

Lin Jiang was really tormented. He was usually a very gentle and steady person, but at this moment he couldn't help but punch his second brother on the shoulder, "Why are you keeping me in suspense at this time? Hurry up and tell me!"

"Seeing you're so anxious, let me tell you something." Lin Erhe was in a good mood and his true nature began to emerge. He smiled and made an eight gesture to the crowd, "Eighty cents!"

"..."Except for Mrs. Lin and Lin Dashan who already knew about the situation, and Xiao Baixiang who had no idea about numbers, everyone else opened their mouths in a daze for a long time.

Eighty cents.

The cost of medicine for one month is eighty cents.

Li Sulan and Zhang Cui'e were both young, and tears welled up in their eyes immediately. The two sisters-in-law hugged each other and cried.

Before, two taels of silver a month was not enough to cover my father’s medical expenses.

Otherwise, the family would not have been able to sell half of the good farmland, almost emptying the family's savings.

They never complained, but during those years, the burden on them was so heavy that it made them breathless.

Every day when I wake up, I rack my brains to think about how to make money and I dare not let myself stop for a moment.

After finishing their housework, Dashan and Erhe would rush to do odd jobs. When Jiang'er's hands were still good, he would copy books for others day and night. My mother-in-law would even go from house to house to do laundry just to earn a few more copper coins.

It was as if a thousand-pound stone was pressing down on the Lin family. If they were lazy at all, the stone would fall down and crush them to pieces.

Now, the stone is gone.

Mrs. Lin wiped away the tears from her eyes, and after her two daughters-in-law had vented their emotions, she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Okay, stop crying. We have endured all these years, and now the rain has finally stopped and the sky is clear. Our lives will slowly get better in the future."

She reached out and patted her daughter-in-law on the head with a caring gesture, without saying anything extra.

She has two good daughters-in-law.

"Okay, let's eat. I've been running around in town for a long time and I'm starving now." Lin Dashan handed chopsticks to his wife and softened his voice. "There are no lazy people in our family. Just like mother said, our lives will definitely get better and better."

Lin Erhe followed suit and handed chopsticks to his wife, but compared to his elder brother's calmness, he was more lively, "Eat quickly, I'm really hungry. Good things are happening at home, so we should all be happy, right? The hard times are over, just wait and see, our mother's fingers are loose, as long as the family life is better, she will give us some good things, then I will pick at our mother's hands and save up a small treasury to buy a silver bracelet for my wife!"

Everyone looked at him with suspicion, "...Puchi!"

Zhang Cui'e's tears were still hanging on her eyelashes, and she was so embarrassed by her man's behavior that her face turned red.

Shouldn't such private conversations be whispered behind the covers?

He is really careless with his mouth and dares to say anything.

With Lin Erhe making jokes and entertaining people, laughter soon spread around the dinner table.

I feel good and have a good appetite. Everything I eat tastes delicious, and even the wild vegetable porridge tastes sweet in my mouth.

In order to save lamp oil, farmers usually eat dinner early and finish it before dark.

It was just getting dark when the Lin family put down their bowls and chopsticks, and a soft shout was heard from outside the yard.

"Lin's, Lin's? Have you eaten at home?"

When she heard the words "Lin's family", Li Sulan smiled and stood up and walked to the yard to answer, "Aunt Li, we just finished eating."

Mrs. Li was carrying a small basket, standing at the gate, leaning half of her body to look inside. When she saw Li Sulan, she tiptoed into the yard, looked around and asked in a low voice, "Is your old man back? How is he? I just heard crying in your room... Oh, it makes me panic!"

Li Sulan's smile became more intense and genuine, and she raised her voice in a clear voice, "It's all right, good news! My father's health is getting better, and the doctor has prescribed a new medicine, reducing a few precious herbs, and told me to just follow the new prescription and continue to take care of him!"
