Seeing that Su Miaomiao was about to leave without saying anything, the shopkeeper quickly ran after her.

"Girl, don't leave yet, the price can be negotiated."

Su Miaomiao thought.

Here they come, the shopkeeper is chasing us.

She didn't stop and continued walking forward.

Until the other party shouted from behind.

"Girl, I want one hundred and eighty taels of silver!"

After hearing this, Su Miaomiao stopped immediately. She pinched her arm hard to hold back her laughter.

A broken water bottle can be sold for one hundred and eighty taels of silver.

It’s so cool to be a time traveler!

Su Miaomiao adjusted her expression before turning around and walking back.

When the shopkeeper saw her coming back, he immediately smiled.

"You are finally back. Come into the store and I will give you the money. Do you want a banknote or cash?"

Why does it feel like the pawnshop owner is more anxious than her?

Su Miaomiao said.

"I want twenty taels of silver in cash, and the remaining one hundred and sixty taels will do."

Soon, the two men exchanged money and received the goods.

Both sides actually felt that they had gained the upper hand.

After the shopkeeper took the treasure, he quickly put it away, fearing that Su Miaomiao would change her mind.

After Su Miaomiao got the money, she quickly ran away, as she was afraid that the pawnshop owner would go back on his word.

Su Miaomiao was thinking about Xiao Yunfei, so she ran to the clinic quickly after coming out of the pawnshop.

I don’t know what Xiao Yunfei is like now.

Xiao Yunfei must hold on and wait for her to come back!

At the same time, the five children who were waiting for Su Miaomiao to come back in the clinic were already extremely panicked.

When Su Miaomiao just left, the children were able to keep calm temporarily and squatted in the corner and waited obediently.

Half an hour passed and the children became restless when they saw that their stepmother had not returned yet.

As time passed, there was still no sign of their stepmother, and they became more and more panicked. They could not help but walk around in circles in the clinic, and ran to the door to look in from time to time.

They had never thought that their stepmother was so important before. When they were being abused, they thought more than once that it would be great if their stepmother died suddenly. That way, they would no longer have to be tortured by this bad woman.

But now it’s different. Daddy suddenly passed away, and the five of them are too young to do anything. They can only place their hopes on their stepmother.

What's more, their family of seven are now tied to the same rope. If the stepmother sneaks away, even if the father recovers from his illness, their family will not survive.

They had never been so eager to see their stepmother as they were now.

At this moment, they heard two people in the clinic talking in a low voice together.

"Look how pitiful those five children are. Their father is dying, and their mother has run away. What are they going to do with them in the future?"

"It's really pitiful. I also think their mother will never come back. Even if they are locals, it is almost impossible to raise 20 taels of silver in such a short time, not to mention that they are from outside the area."

"It's obviously impossible to do. I don't know why Master gave that young wife time to raise money. Isn't this a waste of effort? Master just gave that person medicine. I am increasingly confused about Master."

"You speak as if you have ever understood your master. If you can't figure it out, forget it and do your job well, or you'll get scolded again later."

They spoke quietly, but the five children could just hear them.

They leaned against each other and wiped away their tears secretly, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside.

"I am back!"

The children's eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's mother!"

"It's my mother's voice!"

The children didn't even have time to wipe their tears and ran out.

Just as Su Miaomiao ran to the door, her eldest daughter suddenly rushed over and hugged her.

"Mom, you're finally back, woo woo~"

Before she could react to what was happening, the children rushed over one by one, surrounded her and hugged her tightly.

The five children never took the initiative to hug her.

At this moment, she saw the children hugging her and crying, and her heart suddenly tightened.

It’s over.

She pretended to be calm, hugged the children and said.

"Don't be afraid, kids. Tell me what happened. Is your daddy..."

She couldn't bear to say the following words.

Su Miaomiao breathed rapidly and swallowed nervously.

"Don't panic, I'm here. I'll go see your father first."

As she spoke, she pushed the children aside and ran inside like mad, shouting as she ran.

"Xiao Yunfei, Xiao Yunfei!"

She ran to the door of the cabin, pushed it open and rushed in.

The next second, she froze in place.

Zhang Xing was sitting beside the bed, holding Xiao Yunfei in his arms, and was feeding Xiao Yunfei medicine with a medicine bowl.

At this time, the medicine spoon was still against Xiao Yunfei's mouth. Zhang Xing looked up at her, anger surging in his eyes.

"Xiao Yunfei is not dead?"

Su Miaomiao asked subconsciously.

Zhang Xing looked at Su Miaomiao, whose face was covered with tears, and rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"Have you ever seen anyone feeding medicine to a dead person?"

"Then the children..."

Su Miaomiao pointed outside the door and didn't say anything else. Instead, she walked quickly to Zhang Xing.

"Here is the twenty taels of silver you asked for. Please help me cure him."

Zhang Xing looked at the cloth bag handed over by Su Miaomiao and asked in disbelief?

"Have you really raised enough money?"

"Really, if you don't believe it, just look."

Su Miaomiao opened the cloth bag and showed the silver inside to Zhang Xing.

When Zhang Xing saw the silver, the look in his eyes when he looked at Su Miaomiao was a little different from before.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable, not bad."

As he spoke, he handed the bowl of medicine to Su Miaomiao.

"It's just right that you're back. Find a way to feed him the medicine. I'll go get ready and treat his wound."

Su Miaomiao took the medicine bowl and responded obediently.

She watched Zhang Xing lay Xiao Yunfei's body flat, and said to her as he passed by her on the way out.

"If you really can't feed him, just use your mouth. He is your husband, right?"

With your mouth?

Su Miaomiao has not yet recovered from the shock these two words brought her.

She nodded blankly.

"Yes."

"Then there's no problem."

Zhang Xing walked out and was about to close the door when he suddenly frowned and said.

"Well, why don't you comfort the children first? They are crying even more miserably than you."

Yes, how could she forget the child.

After being reminded, Su Miaomiao quickly put down the medicine bowl and went out.

She pulled the children to a corner and wiped their tears one by one.

"Okay, tell me if you've been wronged, and I'll take care of it for you."

Seeing the children shaking their heads, Su Miaomiao asked in confusion.

"You weren't wronged? Then why did you cry so hard just now?"

Seeing the children crying like that just now, she thought Xiao Yunfei was dead and was scared.

Lao Wu was a quick-witted man with no ulterior motives, so he rushed to speak.

"We thought our mother didn't want us anymore. They said it was impossible for her to raise the money and that she must have secretly abandoned us and ran away."

When the fifth brother said this, his brothers and sisters were all terrified.

Doesn’t this mean that they don’t trust my mother?

What if my mother blames me?
