The words of the old village doctor made Lao Yang's head feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Tan's body shook violently, and then he fell straight back.

Fortunately, Bao Suyun held on.

Ms. Tan stood firm and opened her eyes. When she thought of something, she jumped up and rushed towards Ms. Liu.

"You're a vicious, evil-hearted woman, what kind of idea did you come up with!"

Tan's sharp nails scratched several deep red marks on Liu's face before she could react.

Ms. Liu screamed like a pig being slaughtered and backed away repeatedly.

Blood dripped from the gaps between her tightly covered fingers.

Everyone in the room took a breath.

Tan wanted to scratch her, but was stopped by Bao Suyun and Jin.

Finally, it was Old Yang's loud shout that finally calmed down Tan.

"If you keep trying, Mei'er will die!"

The old man yelled.

Mrs. Tan froze for a moment, then rushed to the bed with disheveled hair, and cried on Yang Huamei's body.

Yang Huamei's eyes were closed tightly, the corners of her lips were blue, and her entire consciousness was blurred.

Soon, the bullock cart was hitched and bedding was spread on it.

Yang Hua'an and Yang Huaming took turns pulling the cart, and Lao Yangtou and Tan followed.

Before leaving, Mrs. Tan took Mrs. Liu with her.

"It was you who harmed Mei'er, come here and take care of her!"

Mrs. Liu cried and followed all the way to the town.

Yang Yongqing and the Liu family's three daughters were all given to the care of Bao Suyun and Jin family.

…

In the restaurant.

Today's business is not as busy as yesterday's.

But when ordering lunch in the morning and noon, there is still a steady stream of people.

The lobby was full of people eating fast food and cooking.

Yang Ruoqing was sitting in the private room in the backyard, looking through the account books sent by the old accounting clerk.

What is recorded above is yesterday’s account.

The accounting method of this era was purely a series of descriptive records.

Traditional Chinese characters are written vertically and from right to left.

You can see that she is as big as her head.

It took a lot of effort to finally sort out the results she wanted to know.

That is, it was just yesterday.

The restaurant's net profit is five taels of silver.

In other words, I made three taels of silver yesterday.

This kind of good situation cannot happen every day.

Under normal circumstances, if you can earn one or two taels of silver a day, that's pretty good.

Calculated in a month, the restaurant can make about sixty taels in net profit.

This is after deducting the cost of ingredients.

After deducting the wages paid to them, we still end up with forty taels.

Forty taels of silver will be divided equally with the old Luo family.

Twenty taels per family!

Earn twenty taels of silver a month, my God!

Yang Ruoqing was so excited that she covered her mouth.

It is better to make more money by opening a restaurant, otherwise, just selling tofu, I don’t know how many pieces of tofu I have to make to earn twenty taels.

Luo Fengtang came in from outside.

Yang Ruoqing quickly waved to him and shared this good result with him.

There was also a happy smile on his face.

"It's really profitable," he said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly and crossed her fingers under her chin.

His big bright eyes moved, thinking about his next plan.

"Can you help me calculate how much money it will cost to buy a piece of land and build a two-in-one courtyard from the beginning to the completion?"

she asked Luo Fengtang.

Their family renovated their house years ago, and they know more about architecture than she does.

After hearing her question, he really started to think carefully.

Soon, he gave her an approximate price.

"To complete the empty house, about forty taels of silver is enough."

"For making furniture, the wood can be cut down in the mountains behind. It doesn't cost anything."

"But the carpentry fees, as well as the craftsmen's food expenses during the process of building the house, would probably cost two taels if converted into silver."

"Buying land costs about eight taels."

"To put it all together, when the new house is completed, fifty taels of silver will be spent," he said.

Listening to his detailed and specific analysis, Yang Ruoqing had an idea.

Earn twenty taels of silver a month, and when you have the money a month later, you can start making preparations.

Build while making money. When the house is completed, you will have earned enough money to build the house.

"You can help me calculate again, if we start at the end of next month."

"How long did it take to complete the courtyard with two entrances and three wing rooms in the east and west?" she asked again.

He thought for a moment.

"It depends on the weather," he said.

"If there are many sunny days, it can be completed in two months."

"If it rains, it will have to be postponed. You never know," he said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

Indeed.

This place is geographically located in the south, catching up with the first half of the year.

Around the Qingming Festival, there will be a period of rainy season.

"Qing'er, are you planning to build a new house?" Luo Fengtang asked immediately.

Yang Ruoqing nodded again.

"As you know, the three rooms in my house were once used by my grandparents to keep miscellaneous items and keep cattle."

"There's not even a main room for dining and entertaining guests."

"My two younger brothers have grown up together. My cousin will also have to live here later, so building a house is imminent," she said.

Luo Fengtang agreed.

“It’s really necessary to build it. When the time comes, choose a good and open area.”

The two of them were having an active discussion when suddenly there was the sound of rapid footsteps outside.

Yang Huazhong broke in.

"Qing'er, I have to leave for a while and come over to talk to you and Tang Yazi."

The man said as he entered the door.

Yang Ruoqing asked: "Dad, where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Where's Yihechun Medical Center?" he said.

"Ah?" She was surprised and stood up.
