Aunt Yu quickly and carefully wrapped up the ginseng again and said to Fang Qingge:

"Qingge, ask your father to find a trustworthy old doctor to prepare it tomorrow. This thing is valuable, so we won't sell it. Keep it carefully after you bring it back."

Fang Qingge was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said hurriedly:

"Dad and Mom, I don't want it. I'll leave one of these three ginsengs for you two to keep at home in case of emergency.

Let Dad sell the other two plants and these Ganoderma lucidum! We can use the money we got back as we agreed before."

**

"No, Qingge, we don't agree with this distribution."

As soon as Fang Qingge finished speaking, he heard the old couple's unanimous objection.

She was stunned for a moment, and quickly explained:

"Dad and Mom, I've just thought about it. I'm going to pay off the money I owed for building the new house and the debts owed by the family first.

Let's repair and reinforce our house. You see, the roof of the main hall needs repairing, and my father is building a new house for me, so it's convenient.

Apart from spending the remaining money, we will save it for the young man to take part in the provincial and county examinations next year.

When my brother graduates from high school, he will have many more places to spend his money.

"Okay! You guys don't have to argue with me anymore. My child and I are counting on our brother, the top scorer in high school, to protect us in the future!"

"That won't do. Whatever you said, I definitely don't agree with it. I will still protect your little brother even if he goes to high school."

Aunt Yu shook her head and still strongly opposed it.

*

"Dad, Mom, please don't refuse. We are a family! Besides, this is a windfall.

None of us has suffered any loss. I am fine now, right? So I decided to sell the silver and use it for my family."

"No means no, the family can't let you, a child, worry about it anymore!"

Aunt Yu was firm in her attitude.

Fang Qingge and Aunt Yu argued for a long time, but neither could convince the other.

Finally, Uncle Shen spoke.

"Girl, let's not talk about this for now. Wait until Dad sells the silver."

**

Just at this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open with a creaky sound.

"Who's coming?"

Uncle Shen hurriedly collected all the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum on the table.

Aunt Yu and Fang Qingge walked out of the main hall.

Then I saw Shen Wendong coming back exhausted with a bag on his back.

*

"Huh? Dong'er, why are you back?"

"Mom, my younger sister has already built a house, and I'm worried that she might be worried because she doesn't have enough money.

He couldn't come back from the academy, so he asked me to take back the bookstore's bill for the storybooks first, so as not to delay their use."

Hearing this, Aunt Yu complained to her eldest son about walking so fast, but at the same time she happily took the bag from him.

"Brother, the road is so long, you don't have to run back specially."

"Little sister, I'm not tired."

"Qingge, pour your brother a bowl of water first. I'll go make some food."

"Hey! I got it, mother."

Fang Qingge quickly responded and went into the main room to pour water.

Shen Wendong in the yard looked around and asked,

"Mom, where are Cuiliu and our two daughters?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down, I'm sleeping!"

"Oooo."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wendong lowered his voice a lot, smiled and strode into the main room.

*

In the hall,

Aunt Yu brought the food quickly and looked at her eldest son who was wolfing down the food and said with concern:

"Your father is here to build the house. You can buy anything on credit. It's not too late to bring it home on your monthly day off."

"Mom, I'm not tired. I'll feel refreshed after a rest tonight and can rush back early tomorrow morning.

Oh, by the way, I just went to the new house to see that the progress is really fast! Dad, how long do you think it will take to be completed?"

"Well, Dad estimates that it will be almost done in two or three days. Dad has also asked Old Ding, the carpenter, to make the furniture and other things, so there is no time to delay."

"Hey, Boss, so, in a few days, will Qingge's house be occupied?"

Aunt Yu was pleasantly surprised. Fang Qingge also smiled when she heard it.

"Dad, don't forget to build a pond behind the yard and set up a water drum to bring some water from the river over here so I can use it more conveniently."

"Dad will never forget. My girl is so smart. When the house is finished, it will definitely surprise everyone."

Uncle Shen said with a smile and a sense of pride.

*

"Yeah, the layout of my little sister's room seems different from ours."

Shen Wendong also agreed. After swallowing a few mouthfuls of rice, he felt better. He wiped his mouth and pushed the bowl away.

Smiling, he took out a purse from his bag and gave it to his mother, and then took out a bag of newly bought snacks and said,

"Mom, little sister, there's a new dim sum shop in town. How about you try the food there? It's delicious. I'll buy some when I come back. Little sister, big brother wants to thank you very much!"

My boss took your advice and actually asked someone to copy the top-scoring exam papers from previous years for students to borrow. Gosh, the demand is really exceeding the supply.

The boss was so happy that he let me be in charge of this area! He also said that if he has any good ideas in the future, he would never let me get them for nothing! Haha, I also benefited from my little sister.

"Little sister, you don't know that the bookstore business is booming now. There are my brother's book and the top-ranking examination papers that can be rented and copied. The books and writing brushes, inkstones, etc. that are usually covered with dust in the store are now selling well. My boss's big fat face is smiling like a Buddha every day!"

*

"Really? That's great. If your boss values ​​you, then you should work hard. Come on, Qingge, try it. Your elder brother bought it for you."

Seeing her eldest son becoming more and more successful, Aunt Yu was as happy as a child.

"Thank you, big brother. Let's try it when mom and dad come. You've all been working hard during this period.

Big brother, the money issue has been resolved. Tell my little brother too, don’t squeeze out time to work hard on writing storybooks, it’s too tiring and will affect your studies.”

"What? Where did the money go?"

"Brother, let Daddy tell you! Come, you've worked hard on the journey, so have an extra piece."

Fang Qingge's little mouth was as sweet as if it was smeared with honey, and she forced the three of them to take a few pieces of snacks to try.

Then he laughed and said:

"I'll go see if Daya and Erya are awake. I'll give these two pieces to my sister-in-law to try."

Fang Qingge said as she took two snacks and left. Aunt Yu laughed and called out from behind.

"Hey? Why are you so impetuous and impatient? Try a piece first."

*

The two men in the room also laughed.

Shen Wendong looked at his father, scratched his head and asked in a puzzled voice:

"Dad, isn't it true that you can't borrow money? Who did you ask for help?"

Uncle Shen rolled his eyes at his son and said, "If you can't talk, shut up. We'll talk later."

After saying this, the corners of his mouth turned up. Shen Wendong was puzzled and felt itchy, but he knew in his heart that if his father didn't want to say it, it would be useless even if he pestered him.

*

Fang Qingge had just walked out of the main room with two pieces of snacks when she saw Cui Liu, who had heard the noise in the main room, coming out of the east room holding two daughters who had just woken up.

"Sister-in-law, my elder brother is back."

"What? Why is your brother back? What happened?"

"Don't worry, it's all right. It was my younger brother who asked my older brother to go and bring back the money he paid for the book."

"Oooo."

As he was talking, Shen Wendong also strode out of the main room. When he saw the two girls, he smiled and stretched out his hand.

"Da Ya, Er Ya, do you miss your daddy? Come on, call daddy? Call daddy for me to hear."
