A fast-paced transmigration story set in a historical fiction era: The fox spirit is enjoying happin

Li Jiaojiao pressed Tuotuo, "Was there a record of him laughing just now?"

She loved that gentle smile. Although a fox spirit could maintain her appearance, youth is youth, and even the youngest fox can't pretend to be a boy again.

Therefore, she especially enjoys making friends with people who are enjoying their youth.

When she laughed with him/her, it was as if she had crossed time and was reliving her youth.

When Li Jiaojiao was a fox spirit, if she wasn't in seclusion, she would go to the bookstore next to the Imperial College and listen to the students chatting and laughing while resting her chin on her hand.

She suddenly remembered when she was working part-time as a landlady, all the wishes she heard, besides money and power, love and resentment, were about returning to her childhood.

Tuotuo said regretfully, "Sorry, host, I didn't turn on the recording mode just now."

"It's okay, I'll make sure Shen Mingrong smiles more in the future," Li Jiaojiao said, only asking because she suddenly remembered.

They went back to get the test results from the hospital.

"I suggest going to a large hospital in the province; they have more advanced equipment to see the blood clots in the brain."

Li Jiaojiao was chatting with the doctor about things at the provincial hospital in the department.

"Please, doctor, call this number if you have any news."

She slipped a small red envelope to the doctor and wrote down the convenience store's landline number for him.

It's a favor that the doctor is willing to help, and paying him to find a hospital would make him more attentive, so Li Jiaojiao is very happy to do so.

The doctor's advice put their minds at ease.

Xiao Liu said nervously, "Brother Mingrong, let's borrow money. This can't be delayed."

He feared that, like last time, missing the opportunity would have even more serious consequences.

Shen Mingrong shook his head: "Let's go back first."

Li Jiaojiao looked at him without saying anything, unable to understand why he wasn't as eager to go to the hospital and get his eyes treated as before.

On the way back, everyone was clearly unhappy.

The Shen family's house is located near the village entrance, where many longan trees have been planted.

After the meal, many villagers would gather in twos and threes under the trees, with adults chatting and children playing wildly.

Seeing them ride back on a tricycle, they must have gone to the city hospital.

"Xiao Liu, remember to help me find those houses when you get back," Li Jiaojiao said, pulling him back before he left.

"Okay, don't worry, Sister Jiaojiao, I'll take care of it," Xiao Liu said solemnly.

Aunt Honghua was a warm-hearted person. She stepped forward and said to Li Jiaojiao, "Today I saw several strangers coming to the store looking for you, and they were even carrying fruit baskets."

Her eyes darted to the left, giving Li Jiaojiao a meaningful look: "Look, over there, they took the fruit basket."

Bringing a fruit basket? You must be visiting Shen Mingrong.

Aunt Honghua held her hand: "You're so good to your brother. If you ever have any difficulties, please tell us, and we'll find a way to help."

"Thank you, Auntie," Li Jiaojiao said to Aunt Honghua first, then stared at Aunt Shen Liu for a while.

If you dare to accept things from her family so casually, you should be prepared to return them.

Aunt Shen was facing her. Everything was pitch black at night, but Shen Ajiao shone brightly in the moonlight.

She could see clearly the glaring eyes in them.

Aunt Shen was still a little scared. When she saw Aunt Honghua walk back, she guessed that this troublemaker must have said something to Shen Ajiao.

So what if Shen Mingrong saved his son a couple of years ago? Why is he so eager to play the good guy?

"Pah!" Aunt Shen spat in her heart at Aunt Honghua.

Shen Mingrong returned to his room and sat quietly. Each drawer had been covered with Braille stickers by Li Jiaojiao.

He found his piggy bank.

Li Jiaojiao had counted it for him before, and Xiao Liu had also told him the exact amount.

They all matched. He silently counted that there were a total of 147 one-hundred-yuan bills, amounting to 14,700 yuan.

This amount of money wasn't a lot, but it was enough to ensure the long-term operation of the Shen family's small shop and to support the lives of the brother and sister.

If it's really used to treat his eyes and still doesn't work, what will he and Shen Ajiao do then?

He didn't want to drag Shen Ajiao into the darkness as well.

As Li Jiaojiao came out to dry her hair after washing it, Shen Mingrong walked up to her and said, "I'm not going to the provincial hospital to see an eye doctor."

"Why don't you go?" Li Jiaojiao asked, somewhat surprised.

Shen Mingrong didn't want to hide it from her: "We don't have that much money. This eye condition can't be cured, and we don't want to waste money."

"You don't want to seek revenge on your enemies anymore?"

How did she know I wanted revenge? Did Xiao Liu tell her?

"Don't you want to see the scenery? Want to see what your future wife and kids will look like?..."

A barrage of questions rained down on Shen Mingrong's face.

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Li Jiaojiao didn't intend to make things difficult for him: "We're just going to the provincial hospital for a check-up first; it won't cost much."

"Okay, can I tell Shen Mingrong when his eyes will be better?"

Tuotuo: "No, host, we can't do this!"

"Okay," Li Jiaojiao restrained her impulse, "Don't think too much about it, your eyes will get better."

She gripped Shen Mingrong's hand tightly to encourage him.

Shen Mingrong felt the warmth from his hands, as if it dispelled his depression and gloom.

"Okay, let's go to the provincial capital sometime. I have something for you."

Li Jiaojiao followed him into the room and received a rusty iron box.

"This contains 14,700 yuan that I've saved up; I'm giving it all to you."

Li Jiaojiao chuckled: "Aren't you afraid I'll run off with the money, leaving you here to grow old alone?"

"If you really wanted to run away, you wouldn't have taken me to the hospital."

Instead, they stayed far away, just like they had at the beginning.

But as long as she's willing to stay by his side, he's sure he can earn more money to give to her.

Li Jiaojiao liked the feeling of being trusted: "Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you."

She has to wait a while longer to leave for the provincial capital. She asked the doctor to help her find out if there was a hospital in the provincial capital that could provide long-term treatment, but there's still no news.

Li Jiaojiao has gotten into the habit of getting up early every day to cook breakfast.

"You can't just eat for free, you know? Once your eyes are better, you'll have to pay me back for every meal you eat."

Shen Mingrong: Okay

"The important thing is that you can't force me to eat vegetables; I want to eat meat."

Shen Mingrong: "Okay"

"Since you agreed so readily, I'll be generous and give you meat too," Li Jiaojiao poked at the salted radish in front of her.

Let's just consider this as salted jerky for now.

Shen Mingrong chuckled inwardly. She must be like a vengeful fox, keeping a mental record of how many times he had cooked.

It's still a bit difficult to eat meat every meal in the village.

It's not that we can't buy meat, but the hot weather means the meat won't keep for long and will spoil.

Li Jiaojiao considered putting the meat in the refrigerator, but there were also her favorite popsicles, ice cream bars, and ice cream cones in it.

If she puts meat in the fridge and every time she opens it, there's a strong smell of meat, her appetite will vanish instantly.

If you want to buy meat, you have to go to the town market. Go early to buy the more expensive meat, or go late to buy the leftovers.

Shen Mingrong heard her sigh and asked, "Want to eat meat?"

He could tell from her subtle actions that she was expressing her dissatisfaction.
