74 Chapter 74 Jealous
“Why?” Zhou Ying was stunned and asked, “Brother Tian, do you want to buy them?”
“Yes, I’m out every day anyway, and it’s too bland for me just to sell bean sprouts, so I wanted to sell them together.
“By the way, if you have extra tofu, you can also share a plate with me to try to sell it.”
Zhou Ying replied, “If that’s the case, I’ll give you ten pounds of tofu and five pounds of dried tofu to try. If it sells well, we’ll increase the quantity.”
“Thank you so much, sister,” Tian Jiawang nodded and asked,” I wonder about the price…?”
“We’ll see how it goes tomorrow. Don’t worry, I won’t cheat you. ”
“Alright, I’ll leave you to your work.” Tian Jiawang said as he pushed the cart and walked out.
After Zhou Ying finished her work, she quickly picked up 10 pounds of soybeans and soaked them.
After that, she used a pressure cooker to make a pot of beef soup. She planned to eat them with noodles when Gu Chengrui returned.
What she didn’t expect was to wait until midnight. She had fallen asleep on the bed until Er Zhuang’s cries woke her up.
After suddenly waking up, she was confused for a moment before she came to her senses. She stood and walked out.
Seeing it was Gu Chengrui, she heaved a sigh of relief and asked, “Why did you come back so late today?”
“I was in the neighboring village. I met a pregnant woman who was having a difficult labor, so I came back late. “Gu Chengrui strode in after explaining.
“You delivered a baby?” Zhou Ying asked with a worried look.
This wasn’t the modern world. If he, as a man, delivered a baby, his reputation might be ruined.
“No, I just prescribed some medicine to induce labor and guided the midwife to give birth.” Gu Chengrui pinched her nose and said, “Don’t worry, I know what the situation here is like. I won’t help deliver a baby unless I have no other choice.”
Zhou Ying was relieved and said, “That’s good. Go wash your hands first. I’ll go make some noodles and we’ll have ramen tonight. ”
“Give me two more pieces of meat; I’m really hungry today.” Gu Chengrui quickly said.
“Alright.” Zhou Ying replied and went directly to the kitchen. She stoked the fireplace and closed it up.
Then, she went into her interspace and cooked two big bowls of ramen. She picked out the beef and put it into one big bowl, then brought the bowls out.
After a warm meal, Gu Chengrui took a money bag from his medicine box and handed it to her. “By the way, this is the silver we earned today, a total of three taels and two coins.
The two taels of silver were given by Thirteenth Uncle when I did a follow-up examination.”
“You didn’t ask for money back then, right?”
“Yes, I didn’t. The medicine that came later was also something they bought from town. They felt embarrassed for me treating him for free, so they gave me two taels of silver.
I saw they were sincere in giving it to me, so I accepted it. ”
Zhou Ying nodded and left him two copper coins, putting the rest into her interspace.
“Let’s sleep in your interspace tonight. I need to make a box of acne cream with aloe vera for a patient.” Gu Chengrui said.
“Female?”
“Yes, it’s a little girl.”
“Make me a box of moisturizer then, but I have to feed Er Zhuang first.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking sourly, she put the rest of the bones into the bowl. She scooped a big bowl of hot soup and threw two black steamed buns into it, giving them to Er Zhuang.
After that, the couple took the dirty bowls into the interspace and continued their business.
The following day, when the two came out early to grind soybeans, Zhou Ying remembered that she had promised to provide some tofu and dried tofu for Tian Jiawang. She hurriedly told Gu Chengrui about this.
Gu Chengrui hesitated momentarily and said, “Just do as you see fit, but don’t tire yourself out.”
