The onlookers were dumbfounded when they saw this scene. The few people who had helped the woman just now squeezed out of the crowd with red faces.

Doctor Zou walked to the door proudly and spat in front of the man who was pretending to be dead. “Shameless thing, aren’t you going to die?”

Doctor Zou looked at the onlookers. “My shopkeeper gives free consultations to poor families every month. Some even received medicine for free. Some people’s consciences have been eaten by dogs. They were so good when they were patients and took our medicine. Now that they have something to say, not only did they not say a word of justice, but they even helped to take advantage of the situation. I’ll remember you.”

At this moment, Ah Gen brought a few bailiffs to the entrance of the medical center. When the bailiffs saw the fat man, they went forward and kicked him. “Dog, you’re causing trouble here again. Bring them back.”

A bailiff walked up to Li Yu and bowed. “Madam Li, please forgive me. I’m late.” Li Yu nodded and smiled. “Thank you for making this trip.”

Seeing Li Yu’s pleasant expression, the bailiff was relieved. “We’ll get someone to come here often in the future. I guarantee that no one will cause trouble.” Li Yu glanced at Xing Hua and nodded with a smile. “Alright, thank you.” Xing Hua handed him a piece of silver. “Brothers, take it to tea.”

The bailiff took the silver and felt that it was a pleasant surprise. After bowing to Li Yu happily, he left with the few scammers.

Li Yu asked Xing Hua to take out some charcoal from the stove at the door and placed it in the coal stove. She placed the briquettes on it and in less than 15 minutes, the briquettes started burning.

“Ah Gen, watch what I do. You’ll change the fire like this in the future.”

Ah Gen nodded. “Yes, Madam.”

Li Yu picked up two new briquettes, aimed them at the hole of the briquettes burning in the coal stove, and placed them in the coal stove. She turned to Ah Gen and said, “Remember, when you burn the top briquettes, you have to swap out the briquettes that have burned out below. After the water boils, leave a small hole and cover it. The soup in the pot will always boil.”

“Got it, Madam. Don’t you have to put firewood in the future?”

“Yes. The briquettes have to be placed in the woodshed. They can’t be placed outside. If anyone asks about this thing, tell the Old Master to inform me when he gets home.”

“Yes, Madam.” Ah Gen nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Ah Gen had remembered, Li Yu returned to the residence with Maizi.

Later that night, after Mr. Wen returned home, he smiled and said to Li Yu,

“Where did Xiaoyu get the mud stove? The briquettes inside are quite useful. The shopkeeper of the teahouse opposite asked how much they were sold for. If it’s more cost-effective than buying firewood, they can use this in the future.”

Li Yu was stunned for a moment when she heard that. They were not buying firewood anymore! Li Yu thought about how those people selling firewood were not very capable. Li Yu hesitated.

Mr. Wen saw Li Yu hesitate. “Is it very expensive?”

Li Yu looked up at Mr. Wen. “Sir, that thing isn’t expensive. It’s at the back of the bamboo forest at the back of the Wang family’s mountain. What I’m thinking is that if the teahouse buys our briquettes, the families selling firewood won’t have anywhere to sell firewood.”

When Mr. Wen heard Li Yu’s words, he thought for a moment and sighed. “That’s right! Xiaoyu, this business is just icing on the cake for families like ours. To them, it’s a very important income.”

Li Yu nodded. “Sir is right. Tell the shopkeeper of the teahouse that this thing is very expensive and the main family doesn’t plan to sell it to anyone. We shall put the coal stove in the house to boil water! Oh! Tell Ah Gen that we can’t close the doors and windows in the house with the coal stove. If we stay inside for a long time, we’ll be poisoned to death.”

“Alright, Xiaoyu is a kind and good child.” Mr. Wen looked at Li Yu and smiled.

Li Yu blushed. “Sir, I’ve bought the hot spring farm outside the East City. After Qingming, take the time to invite Old Master. The two of you can go to the farm to soak in the hot spring.”

“Is this hot spring manor the one outside the East City?” Old Master Zhou’s head poked in from outside the door. Then, Yangyang carried his school bag into the flower hall.

Mr. Wen patted Old Master Zhou and said reproachfully, “How unreasonable. You’re already so old, but you’re still not talking nicely. You’ve grown a good appearance in vain.”

Yangyang looked at Mr. Wen curiously. “Grandmaster, what do you mean?”

“Indecent is indecent. Sigh! In short, it’s not a good thing,” Mr. Wen said with a smile.

Li Yu bowed to Old Master Zhou and said, “Uncle, it’s the manor outside the East City. You and Sir can set an appointment to soak in the hot spring. I’ll go to the kitchen to see if they can add more food.”

Old Master Zhou waved his hand. “Alright, alright, alright. Go ahead.” Li Yu left with Yangyang.

Old Master Zhou sat on a chair and looked at Mr. Wen sadly. “My father earned such a big family business and it was squandered by my mother and me until only an old residence was left. If Jiahe hadn’t returned to the capital, I’m afraid I would have pawned the old residence.”

Old Master Zhou rubbed his face. “Sir, I’ve let Jiahe and his mother down.”

Mr. Wen looked at his guilty expression and advised, “Some people sober up early, some sober up late, and some are confused for the rest of their lives. It’s good that you’re like this.”

Old Master Zhou bowed to Mr. Wen. “Thank you for helping Jiahe all these years.”

Mr. Wen stood up. “Let’s go! Let’s take a look in the garden.”

After Ji Xiang returned, Li Yu told him about giving up on the sale of the briquettes.

Ji Xiang nodded. “You’re right. There’s no need for us to snatch the jobs of those poor people.”

“That’s true. I didn’t think it through,” Li Yu instructed Ji Xiang. “Go to the

Wang Family Village tomorrow and get Han San to pay the short-term workers an extra day’s salary.”

Han San learned from Ji Xiang why Li Yu had stopped digging for coal. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, “We’ll listen to Madam.”

After sending Ji Xiang off, Han San returned to the house and told Old Madam Han what Li Yu had said. “Mother, they can’t wait to earn more money. Why is Madam guarding the money and not earning it?”

Old Madam Han looked at Han San. “Don’t play tricks and listen to Madam. Let me tell you, our lives are already very good now. Don’t ruin our good days.”

Haitang nodded. “They don’t earn money that they shouldn’t earn. Such a family is a good family. They have a long way to go.”

Han San muttered, “I know. I’m not stupid!”

Old Madam Han looked at him and said, “I’m just afraid that you’ll do something you shouldn’t and harm the entire family!”

Han San’s thoughts were extinguished by his wife’s words. He took care of the sweet potatoes in peace.

In the blink of an eye, it was dawn. The sky was gloomy. Li Yu followed Auntie He’s instructions and put a big red coat on Yangyang.

Uncle Zhou and Auntie He took out the incense, paper money, snacks, vegetarian wine, and some offerings they had prepared. When they arrived at the gate of East City, the carriages lined up behind the long convoy. They waited for almost an hour before leaving the city. After leaving the city, they saw that the pipeline was filled with carriages and pedestrians going out of the city to pay their respects..
