The whole family traveled through time and became doctors, raised children and farmed in ancient tim

After glancing at Xie Heng who was still sleeping, the three of them quickly returned to the space.

"Ten minutes, yes, ten minutes." Xie Wanxing said.

"Almost the same time as I just checked." Xie Songlin cast a hopeful look at his precious daughter. "But Xing, you just said you're pregnant. Do you have any ideas?"

"I have a rough idea, but I don't know if it will work. Regardless of the prices in this dynasty, I think Chinese medicines such as black plum, hawthorn, and tangerine peel should not be too expensive. Dad, please look in your memory and find out how much it costs to prepare a prescription of these herbs. I tell you to remember it.

Converted into pounds, it should be 1.5 liang of black plums, 1.3 liang of hawthorn, 3 qian of dried tangerine peel, and 2 qian of licorice. It should require rock sugar, but I can't afford it, so I'll use a little sugar instead. Dad, can you help me calculate how many copper coins this will cost?

"My girl, your recipe is...sour plum soup!" Cheng Hui listened to the recipe and the more she listened, the more familiar it sounded. Isn't this sour plum soup?

It is the hot summer now. If you can have a bowl of sour plum soup, it can indeed be regarded as a way to clear away heat and relieve summer heat. Moreover, I guess the ingredients are not too expensive, so this method should be feasible.

"It's definitely sour plum soup. I just suddenly remembered it. I remember there should be some sour plum soup ingredient packets in the kitchen cabinet. But business needs to last, after all. We're not sure if this space can automatically restock. We can't just use the ingredient packets at home. Let's go to the pharmacy in town to see how much it costs to make a batch of sour plum soup. We'll be prepared for both situations."

"I don't have the price of these things in mind, but based on the prices of other medicinal herbs, a bag of these ingredients shouldn't cost more than twenty coins. The money we have in our pockets should be enough to buy a bag."

"It's twenty miles from this town to home. Wife, can you walk?"

"No problem, just consider it as exercise."

The family of three discussed what to do tomorrow and decided to let Xie Wanxing stay to accompany Xie Heng. Xie Songlin and Cheng Hui went into the city to buy a packet of ingredients for sour plum soup from the pharmacy. Before leaving the space, Xie Wanxing grabbed a packet of ingredients for sour plum soup.

Everything was arranged, and when the time came, the three of them were called out again. This time they did not go back, but lay down and rested obediently. However, the poverty of this family still made them embarrassed again.

Even though they traveled back to ancient times, the Chinese people still had not lost their good habits. They wanted to find a quilt to cover their stomachs, but found that the only thin quilt was already covering Xie Heng's stomach. Xie Wanxing gently moved over and pulled up the other half of the quilt covering his brother to cover his stomach. Cheng Hui and Xie Songlin naturally could not do the same as the children, so they had to fold their hands on their belly buttons as if to cover it.

……

The next day, Cheng Hui and Xie Songlin got up very early. They got up very quietly. Unexpectedly, Xie Heng also woke up early. He stared at them with his bright eyes, with a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in his eyes, as if he was afraid that when he woke up, his father would have turned back to his original appearance.

Xie Songlin understood and tried to give Xie Heng a very loving smile. After telling him to take care of his sister at home, he finally eased his worries.

The only way to get into the city is on foot. In order to get back before dark, Xie Songlin had to set off early with Cheng Hui. Because they had gone through the trip yesterday, the route was already sorted out in their mind, so it would be very smooth to go there again today.

Xie Songlin hurriedly fled home yesterday and didn't pay attention to the situation in this ancient town. Today, he and Cheng Hui had time to take a good look at it.

In Xie Songlin's memory, this small town was called Qingshui Town. It was surrounded by many villages, so it was a relatively lively town. Every Friday was market day, and many villagers would come to the market, which was the busiest time in the town.

The main street is very long and covers various restaurants and shops. The buildings on both sides are lined up one after another. There are pedestrians and carriages on the street. There are people shopping in every shop, and the restaurants next to each other are full of guests.

However, just across the street from the main street lies another tranquil scene.

Qingshui Town is a place where people love to learn, so this other street is almost entirely lined with academies. The most famous of these is Hanfeng Academy, which is located right in the middle. It is said to have been founded by a renowned scholar. Hanfeng Academy is famous for having produced two number one scholars in the imperial examinations, and it has attracted many students from other places to study there.

Although Hanfeng Academy is famous for its extremely difficult entrance examination, there are still thousands of students studying there. The servants and stewards brought by these students to accompany them to school also support many shops in Qingshui Town.

Xie Songlin and Cheng Hui went to several pharmacies on the main street, took out the prescription written by their daughter and asked about it. It was about the same as expected, and they could buy a set of ingredients for about 20 cents.

The money in their pockets was just enough to buy one pair. After comparing prices at several pharmacies, Xie Songlin and Cheng Hui decided to go to the largest one to buy the goods. Before they had walked a few steps, Xie Songlin suddenly pulled Cheng Hui into a winding alley, found a small courtyard with an open door and walked in. He whispered in Cheng Hui's ear, "Enter the space."

"What's going on?" Although confused, Cheng Hui still did as she was told. As soon as she entered the space, she couldn't wait to ask.

"Someone is following us both."

Cheng Hui was shocked when she heard this, and her face turned pale instantly: "Who is it? It can't be one of your debt collectors, right?"

"Don't worry, he's not here to collect debts, it should be my third brother."

"Your third brother? Why is he following us?" Cheng Hui thought for a moment, "Your mother asked him to come!"

"I guess so. I was saying that. This old lady is already quite old. She's not a child like Heng'er anymore. How could she trust a gambler who refuses to change so easily? But she used to really love her youngest son. She probably hoped that I could really change for the better. So she asked my third brother to keep an eye on us. If I gamble again or sell my son, he can stop me in time."

"Now what?"

"It's okay. I've already changed. If he wants to follow me, then let him. It will also make the old lady feel better. Let's go to the pharmacy to buy some medicine, and then go to the dock to see if there is a suitable stall tomorrow."

"No need to buy! We're rich!" Xie Wanxing's voice suddenly rang out in the space. She had appeared in the space at some point, her face full of uncontrollable excitement.

"What do you mean by getting rich? How did you get in? Where's Xie Heng?"

Xie Wanxing's little face was beaming with joy.

"Xie Heng was staying in the room. I used the excuse of going to the toilet to come in and see if yesterday's items had been restocked. Turns out, they had been restocked. The sour plum soup and napkins I took out yesterday were all restocked! We won't have to worry about food and drink anymore. Tonight, let's take out all my gold bars, gold necklaces, gold bracelets, jade pendants, etc. and pawn them at the pawnshop. Wouldn't that make a lot of money?"

Why buy a package of ingredients? Just use mine. Not only is it free, but my sour plum soup package is much better than the ones you get in the pharmacy. Since I can restock it, I can even add ice. A glass of ice-cold sour plum soup in the summer is a surefire way to make a fortune, isn't it?

"Really? Can they restock?" Xie Songlin looked even more excited than Xie Wanxing. He couldn't wait to rush to the refrigerator, quickly opened the door, and took out a bottle of ice cola.

He took a big gulp and burped happily.

Of course, I also didn’t forget to give my wife a bottle of her favorite grape juice.
