A Waste of Money

As long as they dug more wild vegetables and mixed them with flour without buying any meat, they would be 80% full every meal. This half a tael of silver was almost enough for the entire family for a month.

In addition to the most basic food, they also needed clothes, shoes, and medicine. These were all huge expenses.

Rough cloth and linen clothes were the cheapest. Buying cloth to make an adult's clothes cost thirty copper coins. There were also shoes, which cost about twenty to thirty copper coins a pair.

Not to mention the medicine, it was very expensive!

Ye Qingyu's grandfather had been bedridden for two years. A month's medical fees would cost 300 copper coins. This money was enough for the entire family to eat their fill for more than half a month!

Moreover, as long as they had spare money, they would hire a doctor to treat the original owner's face and get a lot of medicine.

This was also why although the Ye family was diligent and capable, they were not full. They spent most of their money on treating illnesses and buying medicine.

Ye Qingyu took her grandfather's pulse. Her grandfather's illness was internal. He was weak and his mind was heavy. He could not recuperate in peace. It was difficult to recuperate with ordinary prescriptions.

This time, she had to follow her own prescription to get medicine for her grandfather!

As for her face, she would treat it herself in the future and never hire another doctor. They could not treat her and it was a waste of money!

After buying the coarse flour, their family came out of the grain shop. Ye Qingyu's father and second uncle each carried 50 catties of coarse flour.

For them, who often carried 200 catties of grain bags, this 50 catties of flour bag was child's play. It was not heavy at all.

"Father, do you know how the prescription for the medicine my grandfather took was written?" Ye Qingyu asked.

"Of course. I have memorized it. I have to come and buy medicine once a month," Ye Dashan said.

"Father, my grandfather has been taking medicine for more than two years and hasn't recovered yet. Have you ever suspected that this prescription is actually not useful at all?" Ye Qingyu said.

"Sigh, we've also changed doctors for your grandpa. They all said that he had to recuperate. There's no other solution," Ye Dashan said with a frown.

How could he not worry and not suspect anything!

However, they had also changed a few doctors, but none of them had improved his condition. The only consolation was that his father's health had not deteriorated.

"Father, do you remember? When I first had the accident, I had read several medical books and wanted to find a prescription to treat my face," Ye Qingyu said again.

"Of course I remember." Ye Dashan nodded. "At that time, you held a book every day and even asked your first younger brother to help you. You talked about all kinds of medical cases every day. But later on…"

Later on, the incident at the family's tofu shop happened. It was as if the sky had collapsed. Everything that the family could sell was sold, including books. At that time, his eldest son wanted to take the Elementary Scholar examination, but he was delayed.

"Father, Qingshu, Qingfeng, and second uncle, let me tell you something big that happened to me! Don't tell anyone!"

Ye Qingyu felt that the foreshadowing was almost done. She interrupted her father's sigh and said in a low voice with a mysterious expression.

"Big sister, what's the big deal?" Ye Qingfeng asked with interest.

"When I woke up, the contents of all the medical books I had read back then kept flashing in my mind. Moreover, they were very clear. I couldn't forget them even if I wanted to. It frightened me."

Ye Qingyu said softly.

"Big sister, really? That's amazing?!" Ye Qingfeng widened his eyes in surprise.

"My daughter, are you possessed? Do you want me to hire a master to take a look at you?" Ye Dashan looked shocked.

Ye Dahe nodded too and looked at his niece with heartache.

Ye Qingyu was speechless.

How could she continue like this!
