Quick Wear: Inferiority is the best dowry for men

He Sheng watched them go into the house. Aunt Li became extremely anxious whenever something related to her son happened. She treated her son like the apple of her eye.

Li Ping has two older sisters, both of whom got married early. I heard that all the betrothal money they received was given to Li Ping.

He Sheng is 16 years old this year. In modern times, she has not even finished high school, but here she is already a grown-up girl, and she is even at the point of hurrying up to get married.

Li Ping is about the same age as her, and he will probably get married in the next few years.

Not knowing what was going on inside, and unable to make out what was being said, He Sheng lowered his head and continued to gnaw on his steamed bun.

It feels fresh when you first eat it, but you don’t want to eat it after eating too much. But this steamed corn bread is also a good thing, so I ate it anyway.

Just when I was worrying about the wild vegetables, someone came out and said, "Hey, you eat such pathetic things at home? We eat meat every day at home, how can you eat these rotten vegetable leaves?"

He Sheng knew it was Aunt Li just by the tone of voice. He didn't even look up and pretended not to hear anything.

"You are such a proud little girl, you look pretty..." Aunt Li walked around He Sheng and looked at her, "but you have a small butt. You can tell it's hard for you to have children."

He Sheng put down his chopsticks and wondered what this guy was going to do.

"Auntie Li, why are you looking at me if you're not looking after your precious son?"

Aunt Li's eyes curved in a mean manner, and it was obvious that she had ill intentions. She sat next to He Sheng and said, "Girl, you are not young anymore. No one will want you if you are older. You don't look like a good childbearer, and you don't have much strength. I guess no one will marry you. I think you are a good match for our Li Ping. Li Ping is tall and strong, and our family is well off, with meat for every meal."

"I'll ask the matchmaker to propose marriage."

He Sheng suddenly laughed out loud, it was amazing, this guy actually still had his eyes on her.

"To put it nicely, your Li Ping is tall and strong, but to put it bluntly, he is just a big fool. He is not educated and has no skills. Everyone knows that your Li Ping doesn't do farm work. He is like a young master and looks ugly. Even if I can't get married, I won't marry that kind of person."

Not to mention that she has no plans to get married, bah.

"A toad wants to eat swan meat. I'll open a dyeing factory if I give you some color. You've been too nice to me. Have you forgotten how I threw your son to the ground? I didn't throw him enough, did I? Bah, you still want to be pretty. Don't mention me. Even a beggar woman wouldn't look down on your Li Ping. "Live your life with your precious son in your arms."

Aunt Li was furious. She pointed her finger at He Sheng's nose and cursed, "You little bitch, I let Li Ping marry you because it was a blessing for you. You are a thing born by a mother but not raised by her. Who would want you except me out of kindness, bitch?"

"Hey, I saw you bring a man back from the mountains that day. Don't tell me you stole a man in the mountains. How cheap of you to think about cheating before you even get married. Those prostitutes are not as slutty as you, and even bitches are more decent than you."

He Sheng was not happy to hear that. He threw his chopsticks away and slapped her in the face. "Your mouth is so dirty. You must have just eaten shit."

"Do you think that since I hit the younger one, I won't dare to hit the older one?" He slapped her again while she wasn't able to react.

He Lu heard the noise and left Li Ping behind. When he saw the scene, his face immediately turned black. He dragged Li Ping out of the house and said, "Get out of here, take your mother with you."

Li Ping was still stuck with needles when he was suddenly thrown out. "Hey, Doctor He, you won't treat me anymore."

"Why are you curing me? If you cure me, it will only cause trouble for my daughter. Get out of here. Get out of here. Don't come here again."

Li Ping was concerned about the needles on his body and didn't dare to do anything. Aunt Li was not as strong as He Lu, so the two of them were kicked out.

"Bang." He Lu slammed the door shut and pulled He Sheng into the house.

Li Ping outside the door immediately started to complain, "It's all your fault. What did you say? You're not in your right mind. You've offended Doctor He. Where else can I go for treatment? If I can't be cured, I'm done for!"

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, let's go to the town to get treatment, to Huichuntang. His ability is nothing. The doctor at Huichuntang cured it in no time. Let's go to the town. Bah, who wants to come here?"

-

He Lu didn't even ask He Sheng what happened between them. He supported He Sheng unconditionally and told her, "Next time you see Aunt Li coming, close the door and don't welcome her. Bah."

Seeing He Lu so angry, He Sheng was not angry anymore, "Okay, don't be angry, I fought back, I didn't suffer any loss."

"You were too gentle. You should have hit me a few more times, old witch."

He Lu Lao felt that they were all from the same village, and he was the only doctor and he didn't want to treat the villagers, so they prepared to go to the town. The town was far and expensive, and someone might get hurt on the way.

So he always helps as much as he can, just as a way of making good connections.

However, the only thing he couldn't touch was He Sheng, the girl he brought up. He didn't know what the outsiders were saying. He just heard that the old witch said that no one wanted his girl.

"Don't worry, Sheng girl. If you don't want to get married, I will support you for the rest of your life. Your father is in good health and can send you away when he is 150 years old."

"Pfft. One hundred and fifty years old is too much."

He Lusheng stretched out his hands and hugged He Sheng, "It's no exaggeration, I can protect you for the rest of your life."

It seemed that he hadn’t held He Sheng like this since he was six or seven years old. He suddenly remembered He Sheng’s childhood. “When I first picked you up, you were still breastfeeding. You had small hands and a soft body. You were very nice and smiled when you saw me.”

He Sheng felt embarrassed. At that time, she found herself an orphan who was abandoned and her mentality was already exploded. She tried to act cute to get any adult to take her away. In the end, only He Lu took her away.

It would be too sentimental to think about it any further, so He Sheng stepped out of his arms and said, "I'll change the handkerchief for that person."

He Lu followed behind and entered the room, muttering, "So many needles are missing, and I have to buy them again. I didn't even ask for the consultation fee. I lost a lot of money. Now I'll say she owes me money and won't pay it back."

He Sheng rinsed the handkerchief with cold water and put it back on his forehead. He didn't know when this man would wake up. If he did, he should leave as soon as possible. It would be annoying to have one more mouth to feed, cook and wash dishes.

Oh, and remember to leave the gold when you leave.

After waiting for a long time, when He Sheng came to change the handkerchief at night, he found that the man's fever seemed to have subsided. After taking his pulse repeatedly, he concluded that the fever had indeed subsided.

Not bad, that’s a good start. All that’s left is for the wound to heal.

By the way, during the day, Aunt Li and her son, who had run to the town in despair, went to Huichuntang for treatment. The medical skills of this first clinic in town were fine, but...

Aunt Li remembered what she had promised Li Ping, so she didn't ask about the medical fee or the medicine cost, and shouted at the door, "Hurry up and treat my son, money is not a problem!"

She was thinking that no matter how expensive the dowry was, wouldn’t it be enough to pay for her two daughters?

This doctor's medical skills are superb. After a set of acupuncture, the effect was immediate and Li Ping felt refreshed.

When I went to pay, I was stunned when I saw the price, "This, this, this, four taels of silver for just a few injections?!"

You have to know that the combined betrothal gifts for her two daughters were only four taels of silver, which was enough to renovate a house!
