Chapter 100 - Selfishness

"Nannan, come here and sit with grandpa." Grandpa Liu greeted Liu Yusheng and sat down on the bamboo bed.

Liu Yusheng walked over, sat down obediently, and waited for the family to ask questions. She has never brought up her medical skills before because she was too young, but after this, there would no longer be the need to hide it.

She waited and waited, but nobody asked questions.

"Grandpa? Grandma? Dad? Mother? Second Uncle and Second Aunt?" If they have comments, they should ask quickly. They didn't have to brew that long.

"Nannan." Grandma Liu laughed lightly. Liu Yusheng immediately squared up. "Won't you really lose money if you charge only one tael?"

"…" Grandma, you're so generous. How could I lose money when I can't even buy spiritual spring water with silver?! Hesitantly, Liu Yusheng asked cautiously, "Those two bottles of potions earlier aren't a loss. But if you add the medicine this afternoon, there's a bit of … a loss."

"I��m afraid there won't be fewer people coming to the door for medical treatment in the future. You'll be able to make up for it. How much do you charge for a consultation, calculate it yourself with a clear conscience. Base everything on a clear conscience."

Liu Yusheng nodded.

"Nannan, you would definitely have to prescribe medicine and such if you take consultations at home later on. Shall we prepare commonly used herbs at home?" Chen Xiulan frowned.

"We have to set up a place for the consultation. There are no more empty rooms in the house. So, why don't we go into the courtyard, and I'll build a shed with Second Brother later? It should be fine to keep out the wind and rain." Liu Dalin stroked his chin in thought.

Liu Erlin slapped his thigh. "If you want me to say it, why don't we just expand the house. The children will get older anyway and will need to each have a nest."

Hearing this, Qian Wanjin immediately chimed in: "Second Uncle, that's a great idea. In my opinion, we should just demolish the house and rebuild it. Let's build a big mansion, with one room for each person! Anyway, the family isn't short of money now! With the kind of three-in-three-out yard in town, it's at most a thousand taels of silver. I'll take care of the construction team!"

Axiu shook his head. "I don't want a room. I'll sleep with Shengsheng."

Liu Yusheng, "…"

The Liu family, "…"

For the rest of the day, the family, including Qian Wanjin, had a heated debate about herbs, the pharmacy, the consultation place, the expansion, and so on. Even Axiu interjected from time to time, repeatedly stressing that he wanted to sleep with Shengsheng.

Only Liu Yusheng was left out of the conversation, completely unable to contribute to the conversation.

In the end, she didn't speak even a word.

It wasn't until one by one started yawning that Grandpa Liu waved his hand. "Alright, it's late, so wash up and go to sleep. We'll continue to mull over it tomorrow."

"…" Is that the end of it? She has waited a long time for the three-court trial. "Grandpa, grandma, do you have anything else to ask?"

"Ask what? Your medical skills are there. It's a good thing to be able to heal the sick, save lives and heal the wounded. As long as you want to go into this line of work, the family will support you. We have nothing else to ask." After a pause, the old man looked at his splinted leg. "Nannan, you said that my leg would heal in two days. You can no longer prohibit me from getting out of bed to walk after tomorrow, ah."

"…" Until Liu Yusheng returned to her room, she was still in a daze.

Thanks to trying to come up with a white to tell her family, her conscience had been restless for a long time.

But as a result, the family didn't ask and she got through it all.

Was the family's heart too big, or was she too tangled?

At the door of the room, Axiu was in a tug of war with Qian Wanjin.

"You have to share a room with me! Lucky Nannan is a girl! I'm telling you, you really can't keep going into a girl's room. Lucky Nannan will be unable to marry in the future?"

"Shengsheng won't marry."

"Why won't she marry? What kind of girl can't get married and have children when she grows up? You've ruined her reputation now. Do you know that Lucky Nannan will have to suffer a lot in the future?" Qian Wanjin was enraged. He himself didn't know why he cared about this so much.

Anyway, he had to keep an eye on her. At least as a partner, he couldn't watch her suffer.

Looking at the person who was holding the door of the room with both hands to prevent him from entering, Axiu brows furrowed. "A girl must get married when she grows up?"

"Of course, if she doesn't marry, she'll be made fun of. People will laugh at Nannan for being an old aunt that no one wants!"

"No one will take her."

"Why would that be? A girl's reputation and integrity are bigger than the sky…"

"I want."

F***, you wish! Qian Wanjin was so infuriated that he stretched his two arms and hugged Axiu, stumbling towards another room.

"Insidious bastard! You're ruining our Nannan's reputation now, so you could take advantage of her later? I'm telling you, no way! Not even a window will be opened for you!"

Axiu didn't answer, his eyes dark as he pondered. Then went forward against Qian Wanjin's force without struggling.

When they got back to the room, Qian Wanjin was about to close the door, when he felt a numbness somewhere on the back of his neck, and then he collapsed.

Before falling into the darkness, there was only one thought in his head – this scumbag!

Before leaving, Axiu looked at someone lying in the doorway of the room, bit his lips, and finally picked the person up and tossed him onto his bed. He covered him with the blanket in passing, right up to the bottom of his nose so he could breathe through his nostrils.

Hmm, that was much pleasing to the eye.

When he got back to Liu Yusheng's room, Axiu realized that they had left the room after a scuffle, and the child hadn't closed the door.

Shengsheng was waiting for him, and that recognition made him feel better.

"You bullied the Young Boss again." The childish voice sounded in the room, helpless with a smile.

Axiu entered the room, closed the door, and dropped the bolt. "You clearly said he was the one bullying me this afternoon."

He still remembered; she told Qian Wanjin not to bully him all the time.

"He bullies you first, but he's the one who suffers every time." Liu Yusheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Did he really think she didn't know anything? When did he ever get bullied? There was only one reason why she said that.

Just protect his shortcomings.

Axiu took off his shoes and got into bed, taking the child into his arms. Still, he didn't forget to justify himself. "I didn't bully him; he bullied me."

Liu Yusheng didn't bother to argue with him, finding a comfortable position and closing her eyes. "What did you do to Young Boss? Why the sudden quiet?"

"He is tired and asleep."

Hehehe, she didn't believe a bit.

But she knew that he had a sense of proportion and wouldn't hurt anyone.

Just like in the afternoon when she saved someone's life. She sensed his resistance, but in the end, he was the first to stand up for her.

Brother Axiu was still the same as before – never giving her a hard time.

In the hall, Grandma Liu washed the old man's face, wiped his body, and sighed softly as she lay down. "Old man, do you think Nannan suffered a lot without us knowing?"

"The child is afraid that we'll be worried about it; let's not put pressure on her. If we really forced her to say it, we would have felt sorry for her, and she in turn would have felt sorry for us, which was blinding creating troubles." The old man reached out and patted his wife's hand. "Go to sleep. Everything that Nannan wants to do, we just need to support her. This child is most afraid of worrying us."

"Alright, sleep."
