The casual life of the flat space

"Ah?! Can the space hear the sounds outside?"

Bai Tieying reacted, but did not bother to investigate and immediately left the space.

"I'm here!" She quickly got up, tidied herself up, and opened the door. Uncle was waiting for her at the door. When he saw her, he immediately stuffed something into her hand and pulled her forward, saying, "Hurry, the people sent by the general are waiting in the clinic. Remember to give this to them later."

Bai Tieying didn't have a chance to look at it, he just felt it was a piece of paper, and understood it in his heart. He put it away quickly, and was pulled to the front by his uncle.

"Hello, Miss Bai!" This person was the soldier standing outside the screen in the study.

"Bai Tieying greets the young general. I dare not ask your name..."

"How dare I? I am just a nobody under the command of the commander-in-chief. The lord said that you are an honest person and your medicine is sincere, so he gave you a thousand taels of silver as a reward."

Bai Tieying bowed respectfully and said, "I am deeply grateful for your kindness, General. I will follow your instructions and do my best to serve you."

After saying that, Bai Tieying stepped forward, stuffed the paper in his hand into the soldier's sleeve and said, "Thank you, General! Please sit down for a moment, have a cup of tea and rest for a while."

"Miss Bai, please don't be polite! I still need to report to the general, so I can't stay for long. So, goodbye!"

"I dare not delay the general's official duties, and I hope General Li will take care of himself!"

After seeing General Li off, Bai Tieying's face immediately lit up. She jumped to the square table next to her, pushed open the lid of the box on the table and took a look. When she saw the box, her smile became even brighter.

There were four whole silver ingots and a pile of silver coins in the box, and some papers at the bottom.

"That's enough, look at you, you're such a loser! Your small body isn't suitable for extreme joy or sorrow, take it back to the house and kiss it!" Uncle joked beside him.

"Uncle, why does the general give me some coins as reward? What is this? A banknote? We'll split it in half when we meet. Take these and have some drinks!"

"Well, that's great. Let's ask Dafu to buy some good wine later." The uncle immediately said.

"It's easier to spend small amounts, easier to store large amounts, and easier to carry banknotes. Do you understand? You still have a lot to learn! This shows that the general has really let this go and is quite happy.

It's impossible not to give it to you. He doesn't need you for that. But if he wants to make things difficult for you, all he needs to do is for General Li to come here with such fanfare, and my clinic would be a river of blood tonight.

By the way, I heard that Zhiyin Restaurant has just introduced a new wine called Mengyao, which is said to make you dream of the fairy from Yaotai after drinking it!" Uncle stroked his beard and smacked his lips and smiled.

"Oh my uncle, you are not polite at all? You dreamed of fairies. What kind of wine do you want to drink? A flower with a changing face will do."

"Why are you being so polite to my niece? This is called filial piety! Besides, I was the one who paid for the 100-liang silver note just now!"

"What the hell? One hundred taels? Uncle, are you crazy?" Bai Tieying widened his eyes.

"Haha, you are so generous even though you are poor. You are showing your weakness, right? Otherwise, why would they tell you that your last name is Li?"

"Oh my little heart! I should have known not to ask!"

"Haha, you are such a smart girl. You can get to know the general's personal guards for only one hundred taels. Do you believe that if this thing can be sold, someone will buy it for five hundred taels!"

"I believe it, but I still feel heartbroken."

"Come on, you're doing this for free anyway, don't be so ungrateful!"

"How can this be a business without capital? I stay up late every night to keep it open..."

"Who are you opening the door for?"

"Gyrfalcon!"

"What are you opening the door for?"

"It, it doesn't give me anything!"

"Haha, I'm giving you something, but you're not happy about it later? Tell it to give it to me from now on. I'll treat it like an ancestor!"

"Haha, that's not necessary. I treat them as equals..."

"You are such a rebellion! You also want to be my ancestor?" Uncle poked Bai Tieying's forehead with his finger. "You have passed this test. What are your plans for the future?"

"I want to take a look around the city first and then decide what I can do in the future. If conditions are good, I plan to let Tiexiong go to school."

"Well, reading is the right way. No matter what the future holds, reading is the first step to gaining knowledge. You should also read along. Yin Zhu doesn't even know what you have learned in those twenty years!"

"So your 'Zhu' is the 'Zhu' I'm talking about?"

"Oh, that's not what you said, right?"

"No, no, I don't have that ability!"

"Humph, be careful with your words next time! You really have no cunning at all!"

"I said this in front of you. I was very well behaved outside!"

"Do you believe what you said? Do you want me to help you recall who cried so hard this morning that their noses were full of snot?" said the uncle as he dug into the silver in the box with his hands.

"You are spreading rumors, uncle. Where did the snot bubble come from?! Hey, leave me a banknote. I have never seen it before!"

"You... weren't you living like a princess in that place? How come you didn't see any banknotes?"

"Haha, what you said, how can my parents let me down? The key is that they don't even need a silver note!" Bai Tieying "grabbed" a silver note, held it in his hand, and looked at it carefully and replied.

"Tsk tsk, tell me about your dream when you have time! You are such a lucky girl!"

"Hey! Master, you called me?" Dafu answered in the yard.

"No one called you, hurry up and grind your medicine!" The uncle shouted back.

"By the way, Uncle, I haven't seen my aunt and uncles for most of the day. Don't they live here? And Uncle Dafu, is he...?" Bai Tieying said, circling his head twice with his hands.

"I am just an old man, where did your uncles and aunts come from? If I don't see you, how can I explain all the things of the older generation? I just don't want to leave with regrets.

Your uncle Dafu was a child I met when I was working as a traveling doctor. He was half frozen to death in a dilapidated temple in the middle of winter and had a high fever, so I just saved him.

Who knew he would cling to me when he woke up? I saw he could read and was obedient, so I kept him by my side. But his brain must have been damaged by the high fever, but now there is nothing else to do except being honest. "

"He could read before... I'm afraid he is not a child from an ordinary family!" Bai Tieying said, supporting his chin.

"Whoever loves him, he is my disciple anyway."

"Uncle is mighty!"

"You flatterer, put these away!" said the uncle as he pushed the box containing the reward money to Bai Tieying.

"No, uncle, I meant to split it in half. Why is it so small?" Bai Tieying lowered his head and saw that the full box was only left with a pile of change.

"Half of it is what you said you were giving me as a gift of filial piety. I paid for the 100 taels of money for you, and I saved the remaining 200 taels for you. You took the 100 taels of silver notes and kissed me, and there is still 100 taels left. 100 taels! What do you want to do? Your ancestors combined didn't earn that much, did they? What do you, a little girl, do with so much money?"
