Song Jinfang came over with a pitcher of water to add water for the aunts and the ladies.

They didn't have enough bowls to pour water for people, but luckily the aunts and the ladies all had water bags and bamboo tubes with them, so Song Jinfang filled them up one by one.

"Look, after not seeing you for a few days, Wuya has grown taller, and the four children are getting better and better. It's really a pleasure to see."

"Well, when they were at Aunt Dashi's house, the children suffered so much that I couldn't bear to see them. So when I heard Chunsheng wanted to leave that family, I told my wife that it was good for him to leave. If he left, we could help the children if they had any difficulties."

"My family is the same. For example, this time, when Chunsheng came to see me for his legs, we gave him two hundred coins without hesitation. We have to help no matter what, because we see how hard these kids are working."

"That's right. I used to stuff some food into Xiao Qiu's mouth, and I had to do it behind his stepmother's back. Once, Widow Sun saw it and said I was embarrassing her. This time, my family also squeezed out 180 coins to give Chun Sheng a leg look."

Aunt Cuihua said, "That's right. As long as we can help, how can we, the Song family, let the child go through hardship? Although this child is capable and didn't ask for our money, we aunts really want to help you."

Song Chunsheng said gratefully, "Yes, we know that the aunts and sisters are so kind to us. They are all kind-hearted. We are very grateful. When Chunsheng's leg is healed, I will repay everyone."

"Well, what's the point of talking about repaying or not repaying? As long as you can live well, your aunts and sisters will be happy."

The aunts and sisters chatted with each other, drank two cans of water, and finally talked about the purpose of their visit.

"Chunsheng, I heard that you guys received a reward from a nobleman. Is that true?"

"The village head arranged for people to tear down your two houses today, saying they were going to build new ones. We just came to tell you about this, right?"

"Oh, I know. Jinxiu worked for Doctor Li and saved a nobleman. He gave her some money as a reward, so we asked Grandpa Li Zheng to help us rebuild the house and buy a few acres of land. Then we can finally have a home."

"So that's how it is. I said these are all good and blessed."

An aunt asked, "Didn't they say that this money was earned by San Ya? Who is this Jin Xiu?"

Song Jinfang quickly said, "Jinxiu is my sister. My name is Jinfang, and my sister is Jinxiu. Aunt Huo, Second Aunt, and all the aunts and sisters, please don't call us Third Aunt or Fifth Aunt from now on."

"Oh, this is a good name, very fashionable."

Aunt Cuihua smiled and said, "So that's how it is. Then we feel relieved."

It turned out that these aunts and ladies were also kind-hearted. When they heard the village head say that he wanted to build a house and buy land for Chunsheng's family, they were very happy.

The villagers started talking about it, saying all kinds of things.

Some say that Chunsheng sold Sanya to cure his leg. Others say that Sanya sold herself to cure Chunsheng's leg.

Anyway, this silver is the money San Ya, or Jinxiu, paid for selling her body.

The aunts didn't believe it and went to ask the village head, but he was busy buying land. The village head's aunt said that the money was earned by San Ya. She couldn't explain the details.

So, these aunts and ladies took the opportunity to come to the county town to attend the market and ask about the situation.

After seeing off a few enthusiastic aunts and ladies, the four brothers and sisters looked at each other, feeling a little amused and helpless.

On the third day, my eldest cousin and second cousin, who were studying in the county school, came to the clinic to visit the patient.

Song Dazhu had three children, Song Daya, Song Dalang, and his second son Song Silang.

Daya had already married, Dalang was a student, and Silang was an apprentice in Lin County with Song Erzhu.

Song Erzhu had two sons and two daughters. The eldest son was Song Erlang, his daughters were Song Erya and Song Siya, and his youngest son was Song Wulang.

My eldest cousin was nineteen years old. He was wearing a moon-white gown. He was of medium height, slightly plump, fair-skinned, and well-mannered.

I failed the exam for the scholar last year, but I heard there is great hope this year.

My second cousin, Seventeen, was also a student. He also wore a long gown and was tall, but he had dark skin, a narrow forehead, and high cheekbones, giving him a pointed face and monkey-like appearance.

He looks like his uncle from his mother's side.

I heard that he also plans to take the scholar exam this year.

When Song Dalang saw his cousin, he almost didn't recognize him.

Although Chunsheng was sitting on the bed, he was wearing clean new clothes. And Xiao Qiusheng was also wearing clean new clothes.

Their skin became whiter and they gained weight, and the scars on Chunsheng's face were not as scary anymore.

Which visit to the clinic doesn’t make you lose a lot of skin?

And it seems that they are not coming to the clinic for medical treatment, but to maintain their health and enjoy their lives.

It seems that the rumors in the village are true.

No wonder grandpa and grandma couldn't sit still and insisted that they mediate.

Song Dalang stood with his hands behind his back, not saying a word.

Song Chunsheng sat up straight, "Brother Dalang, Brother Erlang, why are you here?"

Song Dalang glanced at him with a complicated expression, "I heard you were staying in the clinic, so I came to see you."

Song Erlang snorted coldly, "Chunsheng, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're so rebellious. How can you break off relations with your own father? If my brother and I hadn't returned home yesterday, I wouldn't have known that such a big thing had happened at home."

Song Chunsheng's expression turned cold. "Now you know, we are living in the courtyard of the Third Ancestor and worshiping his grave. It has nothing to do with your family anymore."

Song Erlang's face darkened, and without saying a word he stepped forward and punched Song Chunsheng in the face.

"How dare you talk to me like that? I think you deserve a beating again."

Song Chunsheng only felt dizzy, his nose felt sore, and then a hot stream flowed out of his nose.

Song Qiu Sheng was hiding in the bed. When he saw his brother's nose bleeding, he burst into tears.

Song Dalang glared at him and said, "When will you change your temper? In the past, you two brothers fought at home, but this is a clinic, aren't you ashamed?"

Song Chunsheng felt a chill in his heart.

My eldest cousin is always so biased. It was clearly Erlang who hit him unilaterally, but he insisted on saying it was a fight between brothers.

Isn’t it just that Erlangge’s uncle is a cook in the county school?

Song Jinxiu was next door, helping Doctor Li apply a plaster cast to a patient who was about to be discharged. When she heard her younger brother crying, she hurried over.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw two men in long gowns standing in front of my brother's bed with their backs to the door. When I looked again, my brother's face was covered in blood. I was so scared that I burst into tears.

Song Jinxiu's heart tightened, and she quickly and secretly focused her energy on her eyes, carefully examining her brother's face.

There is a slight fracture in the bridge of my nose, but fortunately, it has not collapsed.

Song Jinxiu then turned around and glanced coldly at the two gentlemen in long gowns.

"Who hit you?" Song Jinxiu asked coldly, but her eyes were already locked on Song Erlang.

Song Dalang looked at the pretty girl in front of him and asked uncertainly, "Are you San Ya?"

Wasn't she sold? How could she come back to take care of her brother after being sold? It seems she met a kind owner.

Song Erlang was also surprised. He didn't expect that after not seeing San Ya for a few days, she had grown into a prettier sister than his own sister.

No wonder Mr. Zhao fell in love with her. What a pity, where is the twenty taels of silver?

If they had sold it a few days earlier, the money would have belonged to their family.

Thinking of this, he glared at Song Chunsheng fiercely again.

It's all this kid's fault. He's trying to break off the relationship and thinks he's a man with a temper.

Bah, so he wanted to keep all the money from selling the girl. He really got bolder after not being beaten for a few days.

Song Jinxiu looked at Song Erlang and asked again in a cold voice: "Did you beat my brother?"

Song Erlang was so angry at her look that he raised his fist and said, "I hit you. What's the matter, little girl? If you keep looking at me like that, I'll hit you too."

Before he finished saying the word "hit", Song Jinxiu raised her hand, grabbed his raised hand and threw it over her shoulder.

Song Erlang fell heavily to the ground with a "thump".
