Plane Trading: A Peasant Girl Escapes from Famine and Becomes Rich Enough of a Nation
Chapter 43: Eat a normal meal
"Master Li, you don't have to be so polite! If you really want to thank me, please return my sister's indenture contract to me! I will be grateful!"
Mr. Li did not hesitate. He glanced over and the old woman who had been holding Miss Li hurriedly took out a bloodstained indenture from the luggage she had been carrying.
Su Qiuyi took it and took a look. She felt relieved when she found out it was her younger sister's indenture.
Mr. Li insisted on giving her the silver. She hesitated for a moment and took it.
"Thank you so much for your generosity, Mr. Li! I'll leave first! I hope Mr. Li will recover soon!"
After saying this, she took the banknote and left the pharmacy without waiting for Mr. Li to say anything else.
The indenture and the money were what they deserved. It was not excessive to thank them for saving the lives of the father and daughter.
But when she left the pharmacy and looked at the silver notes in her hand, she realized that the Li family was really rich. Even after being robbed by bandits, they could still casually take out a hundred taels of silver notes. It was really amazing.
They suddenly felt a little guilty. Besides, they had saved someone's life, so taking one hundred taels of silver seemed too much.
"Yiyi...what should we do now?" Su Xiaofang saw her niece coming out and hurried forward to ask.
They had been standing outside for quite a while. Yuzhou City was not affected too much by the drought and the streets were still prosperous. In addition, the city was a county seat and was very large and prosperous.
For a moment, these country bumpkins were at a loss.
"Let's find an inn to stay at first. When my sister's injury gets better, we'll go meet up with my uncle and the others!"
Naturally, no one had any objections to Su Qiuyi's words. It was also so late, it was time to settle down.
Fortunately, there is an inn not far from Shan De Tang.
They drove the carriage to the entrance of Wankelai Inn, and immediately a waiter came over, took the reins, and welcomed them in.
Su Qiuyi spent one tael and five cents of silver to book three high-quality rooms.
She asked the waiter to prepare hot water and ordered a table of food. Then, under the painful gazes of the other three, she helped her aunt carry her younger sister back to the room.
Su Xiaofang and Su Mingyue kept wiping their tears, and when they returned to the room, they covered their mouths and cried.
Looking at Su Wenxing lying on the bed with a pale face, the two men seemed to be unable to bear it.
The three rooms were not far from each other, so after Su Laosan slowly went up the stairs with his crutches, he followed in.
"Okay, Auntie, stop crying, go back and take a shower, change your clothes and come back. The food will be here soon!"
Su Qiuyi was also upset, wasn't she? But there was no point in being upset. Instead of crying, she might as well wash up and eat so that she would have the energy to take care of her injured little sister.
She took the painkillers she was given and the pain was relieved and she fell asleep, but the medicine still had to be boiled and fed to her.
She didn't know if he would have a fever in the middle of the night. Although she knew that the medicine Wen Xiner gave her was very effective, she was not sure about the effect of such a large wound.
"Yes, Yiyi is right. Fortunately, Xingxing was rescued. You two should listen to Yiyi! Go back quickly!"
Su Xiaofang nodded, "I know, but looking at such a thin child, I can't help it... Okay, Yueyue, let's go back and wash off the dirt on our bodies, and then come here quickly!"
As he said this, he took Su Mingyue, who kept looking back every few steps, out.
Su Qiu noticed that her father had no intention of leaving yet, so she quickly said, "Dad, go back to your room and take a shower. You are covered in dust. Don't forget to lock the door!"
Even after she said that, Su Lao San was still a little worried. Su Qiuyi shook his head and said, "Dad, my little sister is sleeping. She will be fine for a while. I... I also need to take a shower. I have been sweating and dusty all the way here. I feel uncomfortable! I will knock on the door later and you can come over!"
After hearing what his eldest daughter said, Su Laosan nodded awkwardly and walked out slowly with his crutches.
Fortunately, his broken leg had healed long ago, and he could take care of himself after entering the room and locking the door. He could walk without any hindrance if no one saw him.
After Su Qiuyi locked the door of the room, she looked at her younger sister again. Seeing that she was still asleep, she quickly went to take a shower and change clothes.
Fortunately, all the spare clothes at home were packed up and brought out by my second sister, and she didn't use the set she had prepared in the space.
Although there were patches on the shoulders and cuffs, she was clean. After washing off the dust on her body comfortably, she changed her clothes and quickly washed out the dirty clothes.
Just as I finished this, there was a knock on the door.
"Objective, when the food is ready, should it be sent to this room or the other two rooms?"
The waiter's voice sounded outside. Su Qiuyi hurriedly checked her clothes. After finding that they were all right, she put her wet hair back and went out to open the door.
The room they booked was a superior room in the inn. In addition to a bed, there was a soft couch next to the window and an octagonal table in the middle of the floor.
The waiter placed the food on the eight-immortals table and left. Su Qiuyi followed him over and took a look.
Four dishes were served, plus a few steamed buns and four bowls of rice.
The dish was nothing special, and even the color didn’t look very appetizing, but for someone who had been having such bad meals for several days or even all along, it was a delicious meal.
Especially the dish of stir-fried pork belly with cabbage. Although it looked soggy, Su Qiuyi felt that it would look better if she cooked it, but it was a meat dish.
She quickly knocked on the doors of the other two rooms and waited for a while. Three people came in dressed neatly, with wet hair as well, looking like they had washed it clean.
When Su Xiaofang saw the food on the table, she couldn't help but complain a few words. She thought it was too luxurious and that money should be spent frugally.
She has not forgotten how many chickens she owed that person along the way, and she has to pay it back.
"Good aunt, Yiyi understands! Sit down and eat while it's hot. I won't be extravagant next time, okay?" Su Qiuyi really begged. In her previous life, no one cared about her so much, and no one really cared about her.
She feels that being cared for by others is also a sweet burden. This nagging...
"This child...alright,alright, hurry up and eat. Let's eat before Xingxing wakes up. This way we will have the strength to watch over her later."
"Yes! Let's eat quickly! It's rare to have a normal meal!" Su Qiuyi nodded and quickly put a piece of meat into each person's bowl.
She was also greedy, so she picked up a piece of meat. The fat was not roasted out, so it was fragrant and a little greasy. She took a big mouthful of rice and squinted her eyes in satisfaction.
How long has it been since I last had this bite?
After everyone finished their bowl of rice, Su Qiuyi and her sister each ate half a steamed bun. The adults had a big appetite, so Su Xiaofang ate one steamed bun and let Su Laosan take the rest.
The four dishes were eaten quickly and the soup was wiped away by Su Laosan with steamed buns.
He originally wanted to leave it for his youngest daughter, but when Su Qiuyi said that she would cook porridge for her separately, he felt at ease and ate it all.
After dinner, Su Qiuyi asked the waiter for a bowl of porridge to warm up in the pot, and asked him to boil some medicine for her younger sister. In fact, she was too tired.
