I started out with seven husbands, and I worked hard to support my family while crying.

Fang Xiaoxiao carried a bamboo basket on her back. Because of her thin figure, she gave the impression that she could be bullied at will.

The pharmacy owner saw that he was still standing inside the shop.

He looked poor and shabby, and didn't seem like a capable person.

Moreover, he had heard that she had boasted about going to get seven useless husbands.

It's utterly ridiculous. With this, they tried to fool people with a worthless pill, and he almost fell for it.

It turns out that making pills is so simple, so why should I have to pay a high price to get them from them?

"Get out of here and stop interfering with our business."

The pharmacy owner and his assistant kicked her out of the shop.

Fang Xiaoxiao was thus kicked out by the other party.

Even if you make a mistake, forget about it; counterfeit goods exist in every era.

There was no other way but to keep moving forward.

Anyway, after looking at the pills sold in the pharmacy, they are nothing but empty shells.

The next two hours.

She went from one pharmacy to another, selling her pills.

However, they all ultimately refused, citing that they had never met him before and were afraid to have sex with him.

"Sigh, I didn't expect there to be so many pedantic people."

She sighed and continued searching for a buyer on the street.

The sun hung high in the sky, scorching the earth.

The weather in ancient times was nice, but it was just too hot.

Fang Xiaoxiao covered her forehead with her hand and looked up at the cloudless, clear sky.

The temperature here must be around 40 degrees Celsius; it's easy to get heatstroke.

You should know that if heatstroke isn't treated promptly, it can be fatal.

Fortunately, she had developed a medicine to relieve heatstroke, so she took one pill and put it in her mouth.

"boom!"

She had only taken two steps when a white-bearded gentleman in front of her suddenly collapsed to the ground.

This sudden turn of events startled the surrounding crowd, who all turned to look.

But they just looked at it; no one stepped forward to help.

Fang Xiaoxiao quickly squatted down and first checked the other person's breath with her hand. Fortunately, the other person was breathing.

Then, after prying open the man's eyelids and examining him, she took out the heat-relieving pills from the medicine bottle.

After feeding the man, she laboriously dragged him to the shade under the eaves behind her.

A moment of effort.

The man slowly woke up, coughed slightly, and then looked at the woman beside him.

The woman was beautiful and had the appearance of a noblewoman, yet she was dressed extremely simply, which aroused his curiosity.

Seeing that he had woken up, Fang Xiaoxiao took out a medicine bottle and took out two pills in case he fainted again.

"Sir, these are my homemade pills that can relieve heatstroke caused by the hot weather."

The gentleman looked at the pills in his hand and exclaimed that he had never seen such a medicine before.

"I wonder if there's any more of this medicine?"

What do you mean?

Does he expect to get even more for free?

She relies on these pills to make money, and giving the other party three pills was already more than enough. How could there be such a shameless person?

Fang Xiaoxiao frowned, wanting to say no.

However, she felt that this was inappropriate. What if someone strolled through the pharmacy and saw her promoting pills? Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?

The man smiled, knowing that his words might have caused a misunderstanding.

He took out one or two taels of silver from his sleeve.

“Young lady, this is a small token of my gratitude for your help in saving me.”

He then took out an ounce of silver from his sleeve.

"This is the money for the pills."

Three pills, two taels of silver.

This is not as cost-effective as selling it to a pharmacy for ten taels a bottle.

Fang Xiaoxiao began to make plans in her mind, but unfortunately it was all in vain, as opening a pharmacy required a large sum of money.

Let's be realistic and take the money to continue selling the pills.

She had just gotten up, intending to say goodbye to her husband.

"I'm so sorry, sir, I have some things to take care of right now, so I can't sit with you any longer."

The gentleman stroked his white beard and said.

"Is the young lady looking for a buyer?"

"how do you know."

"I just saw you leaving various pharmacies. Judging from your dejected look, you must have been running into obstacles everywhere!"

"It's alright, thank you for your concern, sir."

Fang Xiao stood up, dusted herself off, and prepared to leave.

But he was stopped by a single sentence from the other party.

“If you don’t mind, young lady, I am willing to purchase pills from you on a long-term basis, at a price of fifteen taels of silver per bottle.”

Fifteen taels!

This is half the price of what the pharmacy previously charged.

Without a second thought, she immediately took out all the stored goods from the bamboo basket.

Just enough to fill a whole bottle of pills.

This is already the result of her hard work.

If it weren't for the three good-for-nothings I keep at home—one who's a menace to my life, and another who's shrouded in mystery, I don't know what he's up to.

There's another one who's not yet apparent; all they do is eat and sleep.

She reached an agreement with the other party, and from now on, whenever she produces pills, she will come here to trade with them.

Aside from feeling a bit strange, everything else was fine; at least it was a lot of money.

Take the money and say goodbye.

Now that Fang Xiaoxiao has a stable income, she'll definitely go to the government office to bring home another husband.

This time, however, she has to be careful.

We must find someone who can carry heavy loads on their shoulders and in their hands, ideally someone who can plow three miles of land with just one steamed bun.

Come to the Yamen.

The yamen runners were already used to this; they crossed their legs and held a small teapot in their hands.

"Oh, the Seven Women have arrived!"

The "seven women" he mentioned are just another name for Fang Xiaoxiao, who married seven useless husbands.

Now she is a prominent figure in the county, and many people have heard of the woman who lives there.

This woman took seven men, all of whom were weak, powerless, and pale-faced, utterly useless.

It has now become a topic of conversation for many people during their leisure time.

Fang Xiaoxiao ignored the other party and instead took out five taels of silver plus one tael.

"I would like to trouble you, sir, to help me find someone with some strength who can plow the fields."

When the yamen runner saw him, he first looked around and, seeing that no one was looking at him, he realized that no one was watching.

He quickly reached out and took it, his expression changing from normal as he said with a grin.

"No problem, no problem. I can tell you're an honest person. I might as well take a look for you."

The two arrived at the place where the four men were being held.

After observing several people playing chess, the yamen runner pointed to one of them.

This man had a heroic appearance and was slightly more robust than the other three.

"Let's take him. Take him back and train him properly; he should be good!"

Fang Xiaoxiao nodded in acknowledgment and led him out.

They left the government office.

The man lowered his head and remained silent, but he was deeply grateful.

He was not good with words, but he understood that the woman in front of him had saved him.

Otherwise, he might be forced into hard labor.

Then one's hatred will never be avenged.

Fang Xiaoxiao carried a bamboo basket and returned to the courtyard.

The three men in the courtyard were chatting happily, joking about the news they had heard outside that day.

"Brother, do you think if Madam Fang knew that she had become a laughing stock, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood?"

"Oh, Third Brother, how can you speak ill of your wife in your heart? You must not let her hear it."

"I don't think it's a big deal. It's just that she's called a promiscuous woman."
