"Okay, now that you've made it clear, let's leave it at that."

The old doctor was in a hurry to go home, so he said this and picked up his medicine box and prepared to leave.

“Just like that?”

Zheng was so surprised that her mouth couldn't close. No medicine has been prescribed yet, and this is it?

Chen Dashan must be dying in pain. Seeing him rolling on the ground in pain, he was about to roll to her feet. Zheng moved to the side, feeling a little bit reluctant.

"Why not take the medicine?"

"I can't open it. It would be a waste of money if I opened it. I might as well just bear with it and let it go."

"Farmers are all thick-skinned and rough. Just bear with it for two or three days."

Upon hearing this, Father Chen became anxious and cried out on the ground, "Two or three days! No, you need to prescribe some medicine for me..."

"It's not that I won't prescribe it for you, I really don't have it. You have to go to the pharmacy in town to get this medicine. The most I have in my box are some qi-tonifying and blood-benefiting medicines, as well as medicines to reduce fever. I can't prescribe this for you."

After saying that, he took the medical money handed to him by Zheng, shook his head and left. He was still waiting to go back to sleep.

I was not wrong. The villagers were all rough and unsophisticated people. There was no need to go to the town to get expensive medicine for such a small matter.

Just bear with it for two days.

At the last moment before he stepped out of the room, the old doctor blew his nose and glared at Chen Ping and shouted, "You are the one who pulled me up, you have to send me back!"

In the second half of the night, everyone couldn't sleep because of Chen's father's shouting.

As soon as he entered the room, Chen Yan narrowed his eyes, said nothing, glanced at Cui Yunzhu and waited for her to tell the truth.

The woman put on a flattering and mischievous smile, and shamelessly clung to his arm, "I just want to vent your anger, husband..."

"That thing won't do any harm. At most it will just make him feel painful and itchy for two days. Don't worry about the pain now. Wait until tomorrow... Okay."

The woman's tone was a little lacking in confidence. She had sprinkled a lot of nettle powder into Chen's father's quilt.

"It will slowly dissipate in two days, and it won't be so serious tomorrow."

Of course the man guessed it, otherwise he wouldn't have suddenly interrupted the old doctor's action of checking the house.

Father Chen had been at home since he came back at noon. There was no noise until dinner time, but he started to make a noise in the middle of the night.

His wife had no contact with him at night, so it was impossible for her to have done anything to his clothes, so it must have been the bedding!

The man pretended to be angry and asked with a worried tone, "Did anyone see you go to the main house?"

He knew that his wife was doing this for his own good, but if someone saw it, it would inevitably get her into a lot of trouble.

And she is still living at home. With Zheng's temper, I'm afraid she won't let her off.

I just want to let her know that she shouldn't be so reckless in the future!

Cui Yunzhu realized that he was trying to scare her, so she shook his arm coquettishly, "No one saw it, really!"

"I sneaked in and did it when no one was around in the afternoon, hehe." She said this with a bit of pride. Why?

Seeing his wife acting so silly, Chen Yan couldn't keep his gloomy face anymore, otherwise if he went too far, he would be the one who got turned down!

After giving her a few more earnest instructions, he still felt uneasy before going to bed, and repeatedly asked her to promise him that she would never do such dangerous things in the future. He fell asleep peacefully only after getting his wife's assurance.

.......

The New Year is approaching, and every household in the village is bustling with activity. Every day they make preparations for this and that. Just listening to the noise makes you feel that it will be a good year.

Yes, the harvest is good this year, everyone is happy, and they are confident enough to buy New Year’s goods.

Two or three days before the Chinese New Year, the new house had been built. Chen's father had been lying at home recuperating for the past few days and had not come to cause trouble. Everything was going smoothly.

Cui Yunzhu stood in the yard looking at her new house, her hands trembling slightly. This was the first time in her two lives that she owned a house that completely belonged to her.

It's a very ordinary layout, and the house is also an ordinary brick and tile house. The high wall surrounds the entire yard, making it look very safe.

Chen Yan gently embraced her and whispered in her ear, "Wife, we have a family now."

Tears rolled in her eyes, she reached out and held the man's hand, interlocked their fingers, and smiled happily, "Yes, we have a family now."

The touching moment was fleeting, and she soon regained her energy, excitedly checking every room, touching the bricks of the house inch by inch with her hands, just like touching her own child.

After making sure there were no problems with the new house, the two prepared to go back and move their things, moving the furniture from the old house to the new house, and then treating everyone to a warm meal in the evening.

When they pushed the door open and walked out, a few women who were picking wild vegetables passed by and saw their yard through the crack in the open door.

After the people walked away, a woman said disdainfully, "Even if you make money, it doesn't matter. You only built five houses. What's so great about it? It's the same as ours."

The women around her didn't agree with her words and mocked her, "Oh, you only built five houses--"

"Widow Liu, don't you think about the fact that your family also has five houses, but how many people are there to share? There are only two people in their family."

“It’s still a brick house!”

After saying this, several women twisted and turned and passed by her without waiting for her.

Widow Liu was so angry that she kicked the bushes with her legs, "Ouch!"

A scream was heard and the birds in the woods were startled and flew away. It turned out that there was a big rock hidden in the haystack. Widow Liu had kicked the rock with all her might and now she was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.

After a while, a man limped down the mountain in a panic.

.......

Cui Yunzhu had put away all the things in the room that belonged to the space, so there wasn't much to take away. She only needed to move some large items over.

Chen Yan called his fellow helpers to help with the move, and after two trips all the furniture was moved.

Before leaving, the man patted everyone on the shoulder and invited them with a smile, "Remember to come for dinner tonight and bring your wives with you!"

"Alright! Let's be thick-skinned for once, hahaha!"

"Don't worry, Brother Yan, this kid will run faster than anyone else if he has food."

"You don't do the same!"

Everyone agreed happily, and there was no embarrassment. The custom in the village was that the host had to treat the helpers to a meal after building a house.

This is not the first time they have built a house for someone else, and after spending some time together, everyone has become closer and closer, and they are happy to get together.

Cui Yunzhu looked at the house they had lived in for the past month with reluctance. From the time they got married until now, this house held many beautiful memories for the two of them.

However, she also looks forward to a new beginning.
