Chapter 273 Yuan Hong'er returns to her parents' house
The old lady looked at the big silver bracelet on her hand, looking a little panicked.
What she gave Zhao Huanyu was only a dozen copper coins, but this silver bracelet was worth several taels. As an elder, how could she accept such an expensive gift from a junior?
"No, no, I can't have it. Xiaoyu, please take it back, it's too precious!"
She gave Zhao Huanyu the lucky money originally just to thank her for taking care of her during this period and to thank her for treating her illness. If she accepted her gift, wouldn't she be taking advantage of her?
"Grandma, just accept it. I prepared this for grandma in advance. Just like my grandma, one for each of you. During this period, my grandma has been very worried about your condition. She also thought about waiting until spring.
Come and see you!"
The old lady was so moved that she burst into tears: "Thank you so much for always caring about me. If it weren't for you this time, I definitely wouldn't be able to survive... You don't know, I saw Black and White coming to arrest me several times.
I am..."
Only those who have experienced this situation will understand. The elder lady was worried that Zhao Huanyu didn't believe what she said, so she looked at her eagerly.
Zhao Huanyu naturally had no reason not to believe it. She patted the old lady's hand comfortingly and said: "Don't worry, grandma, you will be fine as long as I am here. Your health has been getting better during this period. You can take some time to recover."
It will take time to completely restore your health.”
"Okay, grandma believes in you. I really don't know how to thank you."
Yuan wiped her tears again, calmed down, and asked Zhao Huanyu to continue giving her acupuncture.
On the other side of the hall, the entire family, including the elders, all stared at Zhao Dagui and his wife.
Zhao Dagui first said that after Zhao Huanyu learned medical skills, he took him to the mountains to collect medicinal materials and sell them. During this time, he had been doing business in medicinal materials and still made a lot of money, which was much more than that of a pure-bred farm.
Then he said that Zhao Huanyu suggested that he grow medicinal materials in the ground. However, the types have not been determined yet, but he will usually find some medicinal materials that are suitable for planting and easy to manage. When the time comes, everyone will plant them together. When the medicinal materials mature, they can produce more than the market price.
Sold it to him for one penny.
The Yuan family's eyes lit up as they listened.
Although they don't know what kind of cultivation method this is, they also know that medicinal materials are really profitable. In the past few months when the old lady was sick, every time they went to buy medicinal materials, it cost a lot of money, and soon the family was full of money.
All the money I had saved for a long time was spent.
If they were to come into this medicine business, they would not make as much money as doctors and pharmacies, but at least their income would increase a lot and their quality of life would also improve.
"Harm, that's it. You said before that it would involve land issues. I thought it was a big deal. I didn't expect that it was just a matter of setting aside a few acres of land to plant medicinal materials. This is a small matter. Our family will definitely follow your lead!"
After Zhao Dagui finished speaking, the elder brother was the first to speak and the first to express his agreement.
The elder brother and the second and third child also nodded. Now that the family is so poor, there is no worse ending than now. If they work hard, they can still have a chance to get ahead. This is what they planned before.
It felt good to be trusted like this, but Zhao Dagui continued: "This is the first time for everyone to grow medicinal materials. It may not be as good as imagined, or it may be much better than imagined. The risks are mixed, so everyone must be mentally prepared.
Prepare."
Zhao Dagui was actually quite worried about whether he would be successful. After all, it was his first time doing it, and he wanted to have a chance to make money, so he brought his wife and family along with him.
After all, my daughter-in-law's parents are very good people, but now because my mother is seriously ill and all the family's money has been used up, I can only give it a try.
But at the same time, he was also afraid that if he failed, it would be a fatal blow to the Yuan family. At that time, the fields that were supposed to be used to grow food would not only be without food but also without medicinal materials, and their lives would really be unbearable.
But even so, the Yuan family still trusted him regardless, which made him feel agitated, and he secretly determined to get rich together with the Yuan family.
As they said, the boss and the second family were about to go back to their parents' home. Everyone had smiles on their faces, thinking that soon they would start growing medicinal materials to make money, and it wouldn't take long for their lives to get better.
Not long after the eldest son and the second son's family left, Yuan Hong'er's family came over.
Yuan Honger was holding a small basket with ten eggs in her hand, but her husband Li Dong had nothing in his hand.
Yuan Hong'er handed the basket in her hand to the old man, with a slight embarrassment on her face. She brought these ten eggs back despite her mother-in-law's cursing.
The elder took a look and knew that the situation at the eldest daughter's house was not very good. He didn't say anything more and just asked, "Aren't the children here?"
"Well, they didn't come. Dad, how are you doing at home recently? Are you okay? Where is my mother?"
Yuan Hong'er didn't dare to tell her father that her two daughters had already started working at home at a young age. On this cold day, when she, the mother, returned to her parents' home, her two daughters could only stay at home and work.
The whole family relies on her two daughters to take care of them.
She felt sad, but she didn't dare to say anything because after many years of marrying into that family, she had never been able to give birth to a son, and she could never hold her head high in front of her husband's family.
Now that she saw her father, she had thousands of things to say, but her husband was still by her side, and she didn't want her parents to get angry because of her, so she could only smile calmly to reassure them.
The old man glanced at his eldest son-in-law Li Dong and said: "Your mother has been ill for several months and has been bedridden. I don't want you to worry, so I didn't tell you. You go and see her first. By the way, you will do it later."
It's a good thing that the couple from Ermei's family have something to say to you, so go and listen."
Now that the condition of the old lady has improved, the old lady said she was not stressed. But when Yuan Honger heard that my mother had been ill for several months and couldn't get out of bed, but she didn't know anything about it, she suddenly became anxious and ignored her husband.
, ran directly to my mother’s house.
When she opened the door and walked in, she saw Zhao Huanyu giving her mother an acupuncture. Mrs. Yuan was lying comfortably. When her eldest daughter came back, she waved to her to sit down.
"Mom, I heard that you were sick. Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? As a daughter, I didn't know that my mother was sick. It's because my daughter is unfilial!"
Yuan Hong'er burst into tears immediately. She knew that her parents' family cared about her hard life, so they didn't dare to send anyone to tell her. They were afraid that her parents-in-law would be in trouble. Now that she thinks about it, the life she is living now is really not a human life.
Yeah, even if I can't come back to take care of my mother when she's sick, what's the point of doing that all day long?
