Besides the ten-tael silver ingot, he made a decent profit selling goods today, and Dahu left after taking the money for the rental carriage.
Erhu’s injuries were mostly external, with most of them on his back. They looked severe, but fortunately, his internal organs weren’t hurt.
At the dical hall, the doctor prepared golden sore dicine for Erhu’s external wounds, and Lin Sanshui borrowed the hall’s facilities to apply the dicine. The three of them waited at the door of the dical hall.
Lin Sanshui suddenly rembered Mrs. Jiang’s instruction to buy salt, which he almost forgot.
Looking at Erhu and Gu Nian sitting side by side, Lin Sanshui said, "I need to go buy so salt. You two wait here. If your older brother cos back first, you should wait together for a while."
"Okay," Gu Nian nodded.
In Yunyao Country, private sale of salt is prohibited. You also need to bring your household registration to the designated governnt places to buy it, which is quite troubleso.
Lin Sanshui took out several copper coins from his pocket and handed them to Gu Nian, "Girl, I originally wanted to take you and your brothers out for a good stroll. But with your second brother injured like this, we can’t go. Take these copper coins and buy sothing to eat. Just buy it nearby, don’t wander too far."
"Thank you, dad," Gu Nian said sweetly, looking at Zhang’s Grocery Store not far ahead, which was even bigger than the one next to Qinglin Restaurant.
Gu Nian rolled her eyes and said charmingly, "Dad, can you give a few more copper coins? I want to buy so sugar and soy sauce at the grocery store to make braised pork."
Gu Nian had long noticed that the ingredients for cooking at ho were indeed monotonous, with only salt available.
A skillful cook can’t make a al without ingredients, even if she’s good at cooking!
If it were usual tis, Lin Sanshui would certainly be reluctant, but since today’s earnings were all thanks to Gu Nian, he was generous this ti.
He took out all the remaining 40 plus copper coins and handed them to Gu Nian, saying, "Go ahead, buy whatever you need, and keep the rest for buying sugar in the future."
The village frequently had traveling rchants selling goods like candies, needles, and hair ribbons. He was not soone who would treat children poorly. Usually, he would give his kids a copper coin or two to satisfy their cravings.
"Thank you, dad. Second brother, you stay here obediently and wait for us. I’m going to buy candy now." Holding the copper coins in her hand, Gu Nian smiled cheerfully.
Watching the little girl hopping away joyfully, Erhu’s mood also improved a lot. "Dad, where did you find such a cute little sister?"
Regarding the family’s plan to adopt Gu Nian, Lin Sanshui had already found ti to tell him, but did not ntion where Gu Nian ca from.
Lin Sanshui also smiled, "Girls aren’t rare. Her family abandoned her because she seed pitiful. I took her in as your sister, and in a couple of years, she can help your mother with household chores."
Since so many people talk, it’s best if fewer people know Gu Nian’s true identity.
Lin Sanshui and Mrs. Jiang had discussed before. Even their sons couldn’t be told, let alone Sanhu and Little Hu, who were just little kids eager to eat and play. With a sister to play with them, they wouldn’t think of anything else.
It’s good to have money; buying things without restraint.
The family was quite well-off in the past life. Gu Nian had never worried about money growing up and never imagined that just dozens of copper coins now, equivalent to a few currency units in the past life, could bring her such joy.
Just walking into Zhang’s Grocery Store, a young man ca up to attend her, "Little girl, what do you want to buy?"
