Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

In fact, it’s okay to buy it for the hostess of the Chen family as well, as long as it’s not a contagious disease. After all, it’s just an extra helper if she is cured.

Besides, if the Chen family's work is really useful, I can pay for their medical treatment, which is a good deed after all.

Even if it can't be cured, I can consider giving her some of the spiritual spring water to drink.

It’s not that Xiao Wan is selfish and stingy, but if she often exposes her spiritual spring water, who knows how many people will covet it. Xiao Wan still prioritizes stability.

So she looked at the man surnamed Chen and asked, "What disease does your wife have? Is it contagious?"

The man surnamed Chen quickly bowed and replied respectfully, "My wife's illness has been diagnosed by a doctor. She got sick after being frightened and caught in the rain after being exiled. We have no money to buy medicine, so we have to put it off until now, which is why it has become increasingly serious. The doctor said it is not contagious."

"If the young lady is willing to buy our family and save my wife, our whole family is willing to do our utmost to repay the young lady's kindness."

Xiao Wan nodded, understanding what was going on. The two children from the Chen family also stared at Xiao Wan nervously. The desire in their eyes made Xiao Zhen'er unable to bear to look at them anymore. She turned around and asked Xiao Wan in a low voice.

Obviously, Xiao Zhener was also willing to buy the Chen family, but it would be better to let her sister make the decision.

Xiao Wan held her sister's hand, turned to Zhou Yaji and said, "Zhou Yaji, I have bought this family, including his wife. Let's take a look at how much silver it will cost."

Zhou Yaji was stunned at first, then looked at Xiao Wan and the Chen family with surprise, and couldn't help but feel happy for the Chen family.

The Chen family also looked at Xiao Wan excitedly.

Zhou Yaji quickly nodded and replied, "Miss Xiao, I thank you on their behalf. The two maids will be paid ten taels of silver. As for their family, you can give them twenty-two taels. Only four people will be charged, as young laborers are more expensive."

Xiao Wan felt that the price was fair, so she happily paid an extra tael of silver and asked Zhou Ya Ji to file it with the government office before sending her the indenture.

Zhou Yaji didn't expect Xiao Wan to trust her so much, and she even patted her chest and promised that she would definitely get it done, and told Xiao Wan not to worry.

Xiao Wan then asked the Chen family's name, and the male owner of the Chen family said respectfully, "Please give me a name, young lady."

Xiao Wan waved her hand and replied, "Just use your original name. I don't care about those things. Just do the work for me well."

The Chen family members were even more grateful and introduced themselves one by one.

The male owner of the Chen family is Chen Youli, his son is Chen Xin, and his daughter is Chen Qing.

Xiao Wan smiled and nodded. The Chen family members stepped forward and bowed deeply to Zhou Yaji together.

Xiao Wan and Zhou Yaji were both a little surprised. Chen Youli bowed and said, "My whole family was sold away. We should have had no right to make our own decisions. We were sold away at random and separated. But Zhou Yaji was kind-hearted and kept us here, and even let us take care of my wife. The Chen family is deeply grateful. Please accept our gift."

Zhou Yaji hurriedly helped him up, with some emotion in his eyes. Although he was a kind-hearted person, he still had to eat. If the Chen family continued like this, he could not guarantee that they would not be sold separately.

But the Chen family didn't forget their kindness, which Zhou Yaji found very rare. So he patted Chen Youli on the shoulder and said, "Everything will be fine in the future. Miss Xiao is also a kind-hearted person."

Chen Youli nodded. Xiao Wan was filled with emotion as she watched him. She thought that she might have chosen the right person.

Xiao Wan took the Chen family and two maids and left first, placing them in the backyard of the shop she bought.

Then he asked Zhang Liang to run errands and invite a doctor to diagnose and prescribe medicine for the Chen family, and specifically instructed him to go to Xuanhu Hall.

This made the Chen family even more grateful. After a diagnosis, the doctor said that the disease was a bit serious, but not incurable. The patient needed to take more than ten doses of medicine for a period of time. One of the medicinal ingredients in the medicine was ginseng.

When the Chen family heard this, they realized that ginseng could cost a lot of money, and no matter how good the master was, it was impossible for him to spend money to support servants. So they struggled to tell Chen Youli and the others not to treat the patient, so as not to burden them.

The Chen family was extremely sad, and they understood the Chen family's concerns. They were extremely emotionally conflicted and didn't know what to do.

Seeing this, Xiao Wan asked the doctor, "Do you need ginseng slices?"

The doctor said that it was not necessary and that only ginseng beard would be enough, and it was not very expensive.

Xiao Wan smiled and said, "In that case, let's get the medicine. Chen Xin will go with the doctor to get the medicine."

After saying that, he handed Chen Xin twenty taels of silver. The Chen family looked at Xiao Wan in disbelief. Chen Xin was even more surprised and stood there in a daze.

Zhang Liang asked Xiao Wan for permission, took the silver and handed it to Chen Xin, and only then did the Chen family come to their senses.

The Chen family members fell to their knees. Xiao Wan felt sorry for their legs and quickly asked Zhang Liang to help them up.

Chen Youli's eyes were filled with tears. He trembled and kowtowed again, saying to Xiao Wan, "My Chen family will never forget your great kindness. We will work hard for you."

Xiao Wan touched her forehead, and Zhang Liang quickly pulled her up and said to the Chen family, "The young lady doesn't like us kneeling around. If we do our work well, that will be the greatest reward."

The Chen family nodded, and Xiao Wan said to Chen Xin, "You guys stay here first. Use the money left over from buying medicine to buy some daily necessities. There's a kitchen over there, so you can cook your own food."

Chen Xin nodded heavily and followed the doctor.
