Chapter 354: Chapter 357: Who Cleans Up Whom?_1

On the road, Qiao Duo’er learned about the two children’s backgrounds. Their parents made a living by boating and met with a landslide. Both parents were tragically killed, leaving behind two minors.

Their uncle was addicted to gambling and had occupied the property of his younger brother’s family. Niu Gang was only spared because he happened to be borrowed by a neighbor.

Truth be told, the two children really were pitiable.

Fortunately, their grandmother was still alive and treated them quite well; they could go to her for refuge.

Once at their grandmother’s house, things would be easier to manage. With the remaining silver from buying medicine and the little girl’s sewing skills, they would certainly be able to support themselves.

In no time, they arrived at Ren Xin Hall.

The doctor, after hearing about the children’s situation from Qiao Duo’er, agreed to waive the consultation fee and only charge for the medication.

The little boy had internal bleeding, which resulted in symptoms like coughing up and passing blood.

However, it wasn’t serious, and with a few days of medication, he would be completely healed.

"You’re from the same village as me. If you trust me, you can come back with me in the evening," said one of Ren Xin Hall’s assistants.

Seeing the children’s hesitation, the doctor said, "Don’t worry, he’s been with me for several years now; he’s definitely a good person."

With the doctor’s assurance, the children let down their guard.

They had silver in their possession, and the boy wasn’t in great health. They were more than willing to have someone accompany them home.

The little girl apologized, "I’m sorry, we didn’t mean to doubt you."

"I understand. You’re still young, and it’s not wrong to be cautious around others," the assistant didn’t take it to heart at all.

Not only was he not angry, but he also thought the children were quite smart.

Plus, he had his own reasons for concern. He was afraid the child’s illness would worsen en route, so he waited until after the doctor’s diagnosis before speaking up.

Their journey to their grandmother’s was settled, and the two children were delighted.

They were only worried about the cow that they had raised from a calf.

The little girl said to Qiao Duo’er, "Pretty sister, you must take good care of the cow. It’s still young and can’t do too much work for long periods, and it needs to be fed grass at night, so it can grow strong..."

The little girl went on and on with advice about raising the cow.

"OK, I will take good care of it," Qiao Duo’er nodded earnestly.

The little boy was also reluctant to part with the cow, but knowing that the buyers were good people, he let them lead the cow away with peace of mind.

After saying goodbye to the two children, Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong began to stock up on supplies.

Before long, the ox cart was piled up like a small mountain.

Once finished shopping, Tan Zhenghong checked again to make sure nothing was forgotten, then they headed to Feng Clan’s Carpentry Shop to look at furniture.

Qiao Duo’er had already provided the measurements and drawings to Wind Liyang during her last visit, but she still needed to check on the progress.

After all, many of the pieces were modern-style furniture, and she was worried Wind Liyang might not be as imaginative.

When they arrived at the carpentry shop, the assistant directed Qiao Duo’er straight to the backyard.

There, Wind Liyang was sawing wood shirtless, another case of "clothes make the man look thin, but the man’s body reveals muscle without them."

His muscles were well-defined, and his physique, simply perfect.

Grinding his teeth, Tan Zhenghong said, "Wife, when we get home, I’ll strip for you."

He admitted that Wind Liyang had a fine body but still thought he was far behind him!

"I see you every day, it’s tedious!" said Qiao Duo’er with disdain.

Tan Zhenghong’s eyes widened, "Wife, I’m jealous. Tonight, I’ll definitely take care of you properly."

Qiao Duo’er twisted his waist and was satisfied only when she saw his grimace in pain.

Every time, it was someone’s little buddy that couldn’t hold back, so who would take care of whom was still up for debate!
