LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 240 - Farmhouse
Xiaolian follows Xu Zifan every day, her temperament has changed a lot, and now she hardly agrees with the feudal society, and listens to Xu Zifan for everything. She knew from a young age that a girl had to rely on her natal brothers to support her after she got married. Later, when I saw the life of the eldest sister and the second sister, I became even more afraid of marrying, because her three brothers couldn’t support it.
But now the situation is different. Although the eldest brother and the second brother still have no intention of helping the sisters, the third brother has become the most reliable backer. She clearly felt that the third elder brother was different from before, and he became very attached to her and his parents. Now it seems that he still attaches great importance to the two married sisters. This is a good opportunity, she must help the two sisters.
It is usually easier for sisters to speak something. When everyone goes home at night, Xiaolian has already inquired about the daily life of the eldest sister and the second sister for the past two years. The eldest brother-in-law Li Sheng is tall and physically strong. In addition to farming, he also helps people build houses and move goods. They are all hard work, but they are very hardworking and earn more than the people in the village. The eldest sister Xu Xiaolan is a little cowardly, but she does well at home and outside the house, and she is extremely diligent.
It stands to reason that these two sons should have a good little life, but the bad thing is that Li Sheng is foolish and filial, and the money he earns is handed over to his parents. It doesn’t matter if the mother told Xu Xiaolan to do this or that, and they gave birth to a son. It was the grandson of Li’s parents, who was taken directly by Li’s mother to her house, and she was taught that she was not close to Xu Xiaolan, and was the closest to her grandmother. Xu Xiaolan is the eldest daughter-in-law in the Li family, and there are also a second brother and a second younger sibling. However, she is the only one who is like a servant of the Li family, washing and cooking, farming and feeding pigs, and she has to do everything.
The second brother-in-law, He Yao, is a trader, ranking second among the three brothers in the He family. He speaks well and likes Xu Xiaohe very much. It’s just that Xu Xiaohe had only one daughter after four years of marriage, which made his mother very dissatisfied, and his face became ugly every year. He Yaobai often took the goods to sell in the town or other villages. He couldn’t protect Xu Xiaohe, and it was difficult to split the family, so he could only bear it. However, Xu Xiaohe’s temperament is not tolerable, and he has repeatedly conflicted with He’s mother. It is very unpleasant for everyone to live under the same roof. Even her three-year-old daughter is often rejected and uncomfortable.
Xiao Lian reported these to Xu Zifan, looking at him expectantly, “Brother, how are you going to help the eldest sister and the second sister? These are all their housework, even if we are the maiden family, it is not easy to intervene?” She wrinkled slightly. He raised his eyebrows and said in doubt, “Brother, I often hear people say that the natal brothers will support the sisters, how do you support them? My natal mother-in-law doesn’t have much contact with each other, should we go to their home and warn them? Then we can’t watch every day. As soon as we leave, aren’t they miserable?”
Xu Zifan tapped his fingers on the table lightly, thought for a moment, and said, “The kind of support like you said is mostly due to the large numbers of brothers. It gives people a very uncomfortable feeling. They will naturally Be cautious, but you may get angry in your heart. In the future, if the brothers become unreliable, the sisters will be miserable. We are now moving to the town as an opportunity. In the future, you will invite your eldest sister and second sister to the town whenever you have time to bring your children. Every time they bring some cakes to the children, so their mother-in-law is willing to let them come.”
“But if they take the cakes and go back, will they be snatched away by other brothers and children?” Xiao Lian can’t help but be a little worried when he sees such things a lot.
Xu Zifan waved his hand, “It’s okay. It’s okay to **** it once or twice, but you can **** it again and again? Besides, the third brother is not just a clerk for a lifetime. When I have a better identity and a wider network in the future, they will do it. I dare not do too much. It’s just that the relatives in the town are not enough. At the moment we are just beginning to release the signal, call more sisters, let them all adapt to this situation, accept the current situation of our Xu family’s going high, no matter what The family members will think more about it. Take your time, the eldest sister and the second sister will have better lives.”
Xiao Lian nodded her head as if she knew what she didn’t understand, and said with confidence: “That’s OK, just leave it to me. Third brother, don’t worry about going to study medicine, don’t delay your study of medicine because of these things. Our three sisters will pay you back in the future. Count on you.”
Xu Zifan laughed: “You can also count on yourself, will the memorial memorization that I asked you to memorize the previous two days? Recite it for me.”
Little Lian was not panicked by the sudden examination, but her eyes were bright, and she opened her mouth fluently to recite the homework given by Xu Zifan, which showed her great care. Xu Zifan listened carefully to the herbal medicine record she memorized, and finally found that she was correct at a single word, and immediately laughed, “It is correct to memorize, and I know all the words I taught you, very good.” He took a record. The medicinal material book said, “Today I will read this book again. Take it back and memorize it carefully. I will test you in seven days. You can ask me if you don’t understand anything you don’t remember.”
Xiao Lian nodded immediately and sat next to Xu Zifan, reading the book intensively and listening to Xu Zifan. Xiao Lian is quite talented in medicinal materials. Xu Zifan taught her how to read, and she recognized it very quickly. Perhaps it was the love from the heart that led to such a great enthusiasm. Xu Zifan didn’t know how long this enthusiasm would last, but he wanted to teach Xiaolian what he could teach while she still liked it. With his support as Xiao Lian, she might not be able to live happily in this ancient time.
Some of them did not fall asleep the first day they moved to their new home, and neither did the large and second rooms in the village. Suddenly three rooms were empty in the yard, and the old and the small were gone. For a while, they felt empty, which is strange. What’s more unaccustomed is that the old three who has always been the most unpromising carp jumped over the dragon gate suddenly and moved to the town. It seemed that he didn’t even plan to come back. This kind of gap was not that big, and it might take a long time for them to get used to.
Many people in the village talked about Xu Zifan in the dead of night, and Zheng Chuan, who lives at the foot of the mountain, also missed Xu’s people. She got along this day and felt that the three older sisters Xu’s father, Xu’s mother, and Xu Zifan cared about were all pretty good, at least she got along well with them. Sister-in-law Cai occasionally speaks yin and yang strangely, revealing jealousy, and the eldest brother is not too naive; the second elder brother seems to have a set of things behind, and he is jealous and pretends to be himself. The second sister-in-law seems particularly dissatisfied that Xu Zifan can get better and live. It was better than the second room. The strangest thing was that Su Qianyun approached her several times and said something similar to her.
Zheng Chuan felt that she was inexplicable. She went as a good brother of Xu Zifan. Su Qianyun disliked Xu Zifan but got close to her? why? Is it because you mistakenly thought that Xu Zifan’s silver was obtained from entering the mountain to collect medicine, and wanted her to bring it into the mountain? Zheng Chuan couldn’t understand what Su Qianyun meant. He could only think that Su Qianyun was moody, and it didn’t have much to do with her anyway, so he simply put it behind his head.
Poor Su Qianyun glared at the blind man, and Zheng Chuan didn’t understand a word of those vague words that made men tickled, and thought she was sick.
No matter what everyone thinks, Xu Zifan has settled down in the town, and at the beginning of the month he officially became the accountant of Ji Shitang. He was young, good-looking, able to read, and had troubles. Within a few days, he had a good relationship with the three doctors of Ji Shitang and their apprentices, medicine boy, and fellow.
There are a lot of people who come to see the doctor. Sometimes I get busy and need to wait in line. Xu Zifan helped some patients to catch the medicine. After catching the account, he did everything in one go without delay. The doctor sitting in the hall looked at it several times and was surprised to find that he really knew how to take medicine. Then he heard from Doctor Tong that he had been studying medicine and had a solid study, but he lacked experience, so he couldn’t help but look at him high.
He received Mr. Accountant’s salary, and he was kind to help with medicines, dispensing and pharmacy. This made it easy for everyone to accept, and he was very grateful. As a result, Xu Zifan successfully integrated into Ji Shitang and got many opportunities to practice. Every time, no matter what he did, he would do a good job without any problems. The transition from restlessness to confidence to trust in him by other people was completed very quickly. They all regarded him as a stable and reliable person. Occasionally, he will take the initiative to ask him for help.
In this way, all three doctors were busy at one time. Seeing an auntie coughing very hard, Xu Zifan took the initiative to help her sit down and said to help her take a pulse. The other doctors did not stop her. The patients who came to the doctor did not know who they were, so they naturally regarded him as an apprentice or a younger bridegroom, and let him watch. Xu Zifan checked her pulse, carefully checked her condition, calmly stated her symptoms, and wrote down the prescriptions with a pen. His whole body exuded a trustworthy aura, but it attracted the attention of three sitting doctors. , Some wonder whether the medical skills he taught himself are really useful.
At this time, Dr. Tong heard that Xu Zifan was seeing a doctor, so he came to the front and showed the lady in person, compared the prescription, and said with satisfaction: “This prescription is very appropriate. Don’t worry, it will be cured within a few days after the right prescription.”
Xu Zifan took the medicine for the aunt and kept the account, and personally sent her out. The people in the line saw it and couldn’t wait to come forward to ask, and wanted Xu Zifan to show him. Xu Zifan looked at Doctor Tong inquiringly, and Doctor Tong readily agreed, and then Xu Zifan helped others to see a doctor. Doctor Tong watched him by the side, and occasionally saw it again by himself, and personally confirmed that Xu Zifan had no problems with the doctor. This was really relieved.
The doctors, apprentices, Yaotong and others in the medical hall were a little dumbfounded. Did Xu Zifan teach himself this way? Why are they not so capable at this age?
