A delicate and gentle educated youth came to the village, and the aloof and cold soldier king droppe

Xu Chenggong gritted his teeth and told his wife to pay the fee.

"But I left in a hurry and didn't bring any money with me. Besides..."

Besides, the Xu family's money isn't with Xu Chenggong's wife at all.

Xu Chenggong always kept all the money himself; his wife couldn't even scrape together two cents.

Xu Chenggong didn't have the habit of carrying money with him, so naturally he didn't have any money on him.

He cursed several times, then told his wife to go and ask how much more money was needed for discharge, and then sent her back to the village to get the money.

The tractor left, and Xu Chenggong's wife had to walk back to the village.

Only after his wife left did Xu Chenggong realize that he hadn't eaten anything since breakfast and his stomach was rumbling.

Unable to walk, he could only wait in his hospital bed for his wife to bring back the money.

Xu Chenggong was absolutely furious.

On the other side, after more than an hour's journey, the tractor returned to Kaoshan Village.

It was already past 5 p.m.

The tractor drove directly to Gu Nan's doorstep because Baozi had been arranged to stay at Gu Nan's house by Su Niannian.

Widow Wu got off the tractor and rushed into Gu Nan's yard.

She paid no attention to her own health; all she did on the journey was worry about her son.

"Auntie, Auntie, my steamed buns..." As soon as Widow Wu entered the courtyard, she saw Mother Gu carrying dinner out of the kitchen.

Song Zhaodi was also there. She came to Su Niannian's side and asked her if she was alright.

"What could possibly happen to me? Gu Nan has always been by my side. It would be difficult for anything to happen to me if I wanted to." Su Niannian smiled and then looked at Gu Nan behind her.

Gu Nan nodded slightly to Song Zhaodi, and Song Zhaodi nodded in return.

"Where's the bun?"

“He was already awake when I arrived in the main room. I fed him rice porridge, and he seems to be doing quite well now,” Song Zhaodi continued.

"Can I go check on the steamed buns?" Widow Wu asked Gu's mother hurriedly upon hearing this.

"Of course, it's right here. I'll take you there." Gu's mother took Wu's widow's hand and headed towards the main room.

Su Niannian followed.

After Jiang Aiguo entered the courtyard, he greeted everyone and followed.

"steamed stuffed bun……"

"son."

Widow Wu saw Baozi in the main room, reading comic books with Gu Ningning.

Baozi looks much better now; she seems more energetic, and at least her face isn't as red anymore.

Moreover, people can sit up now.

Immediately, Widow Wu's eyes reddened, and she rushed over and hugged her son tightly.

"Mother..." Baozi called out to his mother.

"Good child, I'm so glad you're alright, I'm so glad you're alright." Widow Wu hugged the steamed bun as if she were embracing her whole world. At this moment, the anxiety she had been carrying finally subsided.

"Thank you, thank you," Widow Wu said to Su Niannian again.

Widow Wu even wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Su Niannian at this moment.

Su Niannian quickly stopped Widow Wu from doing so.

"I didn't do anything special, I just gave Baozi an anti-inflammatory pill and made him drink two mouthfuls of ginseng-infused water," Su Niannian said.

This matter should not be investigated too deeply, nor should it be thought about too much.

At the time, Su Niannian only fed Baozi a few sips of spiritual spring water, but this matter could not be known to outsiders.

The only explanation now is that they gave Baozi anti-inflammatory medicine at the time, but the medicine wasn't that effective. So, adding ginseng soaked in water should explain it.

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain how Su Niannian miraculously cured Baozi.

Gu Nan was also worried that Su Niannian's secret would be exposed.

Gu Nan knew that Su Niannian must possess some miraculous medicine, so miraculous that it could cure cancer...

Seeing Su Niannian say this, Gu Nan felt a little relieved.

"Anti-inflammatory drugs... ginseng..." In Widow Wu's eyes, neither of these things were cheap, especially ginseng.

It sounds expensive.

Jiang Aiguo, who was standing at the door, was so shocked that his jaw dropped.

He was knowledgeable and experienced. In such an era, it was not easy for old farmers to even have enough to eat. Ginseng was something that they probably couldn't afford even after a lifetime of hard work.

A single effective ginseng root would probably cost over a hundred yuan, yet Su Niannian was willing to give ginseng water to a stranger.

His admiration for Su Niannian rose rapidly.

"Human life is the most important thing," Su Niannian said with a smile.

"Don't tell anyone about this. The more people know, the worse it will be," Gu's mother added.

Gu's mother felt that her improved health might be due to Su Niannian adding ginseng water to her Chinese medicine.

Such a fine item is likely to arouse the covetousness of others.

The fewer people who know, the better.

“That’s natural.” Jiang Aiguo wasn’t one to talk too much.

Widow Wu and Baozi both nodded.

Su Niannian then handed the anti-inflammatory medicine she got from the hospital to Widow Wu.

"After we get back, give Baozi one bun each morning and evening. Once she finishes these, she'll definitely be fine," Su Niannian said to Widow Wu.

"Thanks……"

"How much are these? And how much is the lunch too?" Widow Wu had no money now, but she needed to know how much she owed Su Niannian. Even if she went hungry, she was determined to pay Su Niannian back.

"Don't worry, I'll get the money from the person who owes it, so you don't need to worry about it." Su Niannian naturally wouldn't ask Widow Wu for the money.

Xu Chenggong has to pay this money.

Widow Wu's eyes reddened, her nose tingled, and tears fell again.

She hadn't felt such kindness and warmth in a long time.

"How can my daughter and I repay you for what you've done..." Widow Wu said helplessly, clutching the hem of her clothes.

Su Niannian could tell that Widow Wu genuinely wanted to thank her.

"Then in a couple of days, I'll buy some fabric and ask Sister Wu to make me a couple of outfits," Su Niannian said with a smile.

Helping others is supposed to be about not expecting anything in return, but you can't exactly be a saint yourself.

Since the other party is willing to reciprocate, I can't refuse at all.

Just like the things Aunt Zhou gave us before, leaving a chicken is a way of accepting their desire to repay the kindness.

“Okay. I can do it. I’m quite good at making clothes.” Widow Wu immediately agreed.

She had nothing of value to her name, but she felt she was quite capable of making clothes.

"Yes, Xiao Wu's cooking skills are very good," Gu's mother added from the side.

Jiang Aiguo saw that the conversation had gone on long enough and it was time to get down to business.

He took a few steps forward, came to Baozi's vicinity, looked at Baozi, and asked him about the beating, asking who had done it.

Baozi thought carefully and gave the answer.

“It happened at the foot of the mountain. Xu Wansui hit me. Li Baobei was also there. Li Baobei even stopped Xu Wansui and told him that if the fight continued, something bad would happen.”
