I'll Give You Half of the Earnings

After Yu Xiaolian washed her clothes, she realized that Su Jingyue was still holding the candy preciously. He looked around but could not bear to eat it.

She placed the washed clothes in the wooden basin and said to Su Jingyue, "Wait for me here. I'll send the clothes home before coming to look for you. Don't run around."

Seeing Su Jingyue nod obediently, Yu Xiaolian picked up the wooden basin with difficulty and walked home. She was weak, and the wooden basin was already a little heavy. Coupled with her wet clothes, it was even heavier.

After drying the clothes, Yu Xiaolian said to Yu Changhe, who was weaving a basket in the corner, "Father, have you taken the medicine? Where's my mother?"

"Your mother heard that Madam Feng from that courtyard cried again and went to the Zhao family."

"Father, there's a child who came to our village from the bend in the river. I want to send him back. I might come back later. Don't forget to tell mother. You don't have to wait for me for dinner."

"Oh, he should be sent back. Whose child is it?"

"It's the Su family. Father, that child is still waiting for me by the river. I'm afraid he'll fall into the water. I'll leave first."

Yu Changhe warned loudly, "Then be careful and come back early!"

"Aye, got it!"

Yu Xiaolian ran to the river and Su Jingyue squatted there obediently, waiting for her.

Yu Xiaolian walked over and patted his head. "You're so obedient. Wait for me for a while more!"

Yu Xiaolian took out her diary and black charcoal pen and began to write a letter to Su Jingchen.

In the letter, Yu Xiaolian gave Su Jingchen some hints, telling him to try his best to protect his family's assets and his younger brother. He had to take precautions. Of course, she gave Su Jingchen advice in a guessing tone. As for whether he would listen or not, it was up to him.

Yu Xiaolian tore off the paper filled with words, folded it, and put it in Su Jingyue's arms. Her traditional handwriting was so-so, and some of the words were probably not written correctly, but Su Jingchen should be able to understand, right?

He should be able to. After all, Su Jingchen was an existence that was close to a demon in the book!

Yu Xiaolian took Su Jingyue to Xiahe Wan Village and sent him to the Su family with instructions.

The Su family was indeed a merchant family. This row of large brick houses was probably one of the best in the surrounding villages.

Ever since Yu Xiaolian transmigrated, she had mostly seen low mud houses or straw houses. This was the first time she had seen such a green brick tiled house with high courtyard walls.

Madam Yao must not be a simple person to climb into Master's bed after her mistress passed away.

Yu Xiaolian reminded Su Jingyue a few more times and told him to go home quickly. Su Jingyue held the candy and looked back at Yu Xiaolian three times with every step, unwilling to part.

Yu Xiaolian waved her hand and told him to go in quickly. "Don't forget to give that letter to your brother!"

It was still necessary to build a good relationship with the future Grand Secretary.

In ancient times, it was all about strength. The lives of the rich and powerful could change someone's life with a word. It was necessary to hug Su Jingchen's leg.

If she were to go against Jun Mobai in the future, Su Jingchen, the wise and powerful minister, might be able to help her.

Yu Xiaolian went home happily. Fortunately, Xiaohe Wan Village was not far from their village, so Yu Xiaolian quickly returned home.

When she arrived home, Madam Sun and Yu Changhe were waiting for her to eat.

"Wow, Mother's wild vegetable dumplings. I like Mother's vegetable dumplings the most." Yu Xiaolian washed her hands and looked at the dining table. "Ah, there's also wild vegetable soup. I want to eat more tonight."

Madam Sun scooped a bowl of wild vegetable soup for Yu Xiaolian and said with a smile, "You should eat more. The girls in the village who are your age are all taller than you."

Yu Xiaolian took a big bite of the vegetable dumpling. "Yum, everything Mother cooks is delicious!"

The vegetable dumpling was actually a dumpling made of corn flour and chopped wild vegetables. It could be steamed by placing it on a cloth. Yu Xiaolian originally didn't like to eat these coarse grains and brown rice. She felt that her throat was sore, but after living in ancient times for a period of time, she had to admit that when a person was hungry, everything tasted good.

Yu Xiaolian ate two vegetable dumplings in a row and drank a few bowls of wild vegetable soup before putting down her bowl and chopsticks in satisfaction.

Actually, not only was there no oil in the wild vegetable soup, but there was also the unique bitterness of wild vegetables. However, in order to wash the vegetable dumplings down, she had to take a mouthful of dry food and a mouthful of soup down. Otherwise, she would really choke.

She took out a piece of silver from her pocket and placed it on the corner of the table. "Mother, this is from the Su family. They thanked me for sending their young master back, so they gave me a silver tael."

"Child, how can you ask them for so much money? Oh, this is so much silver!"

Yu Changhe frowned. "Send it back tomorrow!"

Yu Xiaolian was speechless. She had already taken out the smallest piece of silver. Why did Yu Changhe think that it was too much? Shouldn't he be happy that his daughter suddenly brought back a piece of silver?

If she had known earlier, she would have just said she picked it up!

Madam Sun glanced at Yu Changhe and said, "The Su family is doing business in Lower Hewan. I heard that they're very rich. They must be anxious about losing their child. Our Xiaolian didn't have any ulterior motives when she sent the child back to his family. However, since his family is generous with the reward and our family is short of money, I think we should accept it?"

"That's right, Mother, don't you still have to save money to buy Muscle Strengthening Ointment for my father? With this silver, we can help Father recover faster." When Yu Xiaolian saw Madam Sun speak, she knew that there was no need to 'send back' the money, because Madam Sun's words still counted.

When Yu Changhe heard the words 'Muscle Strengthening Ointment', his heart unconsciously moved. As long as his leg recovered, his family's life in the future would be a little better.

He often dreamed that his legs had recovered, but every time he woke up, he would be covered in sweat and disappointed again and again.

Yu Xiaolian patted her stomach. "Mother, I'm full. It's not dark yet. I'll go to the col to pick some more Earth Bones to digest my food properly."

Madam Sun glanced outside. It was indeed still bright. "Then don't go too far. Come back quickly."

The first thing Yu Xiaolian did was to run to the Jiang family and call Jiang Lin out.

Jiang Lin had been waiting for Yu Xiaolian at home for an entire day. Finally, she came. As soon as they met, he smiled and claimed that he had deliberately angered the Pan Family's thugs yesterday so that they would find trouble with Zhao Kuo.

"Zhao Kuo did get beaten up pretty badly, but damn it, he went home to beat up his wife. I'm so angry!"

Yu Xiaolian asked Jiang Lin, "What did my father say when he came to your house yesterday? He should also suspect Zhao Kuo, right?"

"Your father is a stubborn person. No matter what my father and I say, he always says that Zhao Kuo is not that kind of person. However, I think he's also suspicious. He just doesn't want to admit it."

Jiang Lin pointed at Yu Xiaolian's basket. "It's already so late, and you still want to go up the mountain? It's going to be dark soon!"

Yu Xiaolian said, "Aren't you here? What am I afraid of? Let's go, Big Bodyguard Jiang. Let's set off towards the Earth Bone!"

Jiang Lin was very pleased with Yu Xiaolian's words. He patted his chest, "The unparalleled and invincible Hero Jiang is at Sister Xiaolian's disposal. He vows to capture all the bones in the mountain in one fell swoop, leaving not a single blade of grass behind!"

"Hahaha…" Yu Xiaolian laughed happily, "Good brother, I'll give you half of the money!"
