Chapter 81: A Few Taels of Silver

"It's pretty good," Zhong Mingwei was sweating all over his body from being rubbed by her, and he was panting slightly at this time, with a low smile in his panting, "The gentlemen who used to go to the study used to give the words I wrote to other princes. As a copybook, what do you think?"

"Wow, then you must have written quite well," Ah Chou said, twisting a hot kerchief on his calf to give him a warm compress, and at the same time adding another hot kerchief to the crook of his leg, "The other Is the prince's handwriting better than yours? Is there any reason why Qing... Qing comes from... What is it?"

"Blue comes out of blue and is better than blue." Zhong Mingwei answered her words with a "hissing" panting sound.

"Is the handkerchief too hot?" Ah Chou was a little worried, "Do you want to add some cold water?"

"No, it's quite comfortable when it's hot," Zhong Mingwei said, paused, and frowned again, "The knees are so sore."

"It's probably because I was frozen in the past, and the cold has penetrated into my bones." A Chou sighed softly, twisted the hot handkerchief again, and covered Zhong Mingwei's reddened legs, and said very worriedly, "In the future I can no longer freeze my legs."

When Zhong Mingwei was sent from the capital to Ninggu Pagoda, it was the coldest time. He was seriously injured, and the road was bumpy for several months. How could it not be aggravated? What's more, the weather was so cold and the air was so cold that the people in Ningguta were immediately paralyzed. Naturally, there was a reason for this.

Zhong Mingwei also knew this reason, and was afraid that Ah Chou would be worried, so he immediately said: "It's okay, I'm still wrapped in a blanket every day in such a hot day, sweating all the time, how can I catch cold?"

"Of course it's hot now, what should I do if it's winter?" Ah Chou looked at the empty and simple room, and thought about the thin quilts in the box. He was almost worried, and gritted his teeth, "No In a few days, you will have to find someone to build a fire kang, or else your body will recover to this state with great difficulty, and it will return to its original shape in winter."

Zhong Mingwei also knows this truth, but...

Zhong Mingwei bit his lips and said, "Do you have enough money at home?"

"I told you not to worry about this! You are always so talkative!" A Chou muttered, and threw a veil on him again, while pressing hard on his leg, paused, and then whispered He said, "You really don't have to worry about it. How much can we spend on food and drink every day? I still have a dozen taels of silver with me. Let alone building a kang, it is more than enough to knock down and rebuild the place."

Zhong Mingwei knew that what A Chou said must have been mixed with water. She said it was ten taels of silver, but in fact it might be only seven or eight taels, or even five or six taels. He thought that he would be so worried about a few taels of silver, and now he even thought about what he could do to make a living so that he could support his family, so that Ah Chou wouldn't be so tired by himself.

However, what can he do if he can't even get out of bed?

"You really don't have to worry," Zhong Mingwei remained silent for a long time, Ah Chou also knew that Zhong Mingwei would never believe his bold words, and immediately lost his arrogance. She stretched out her hand to grab Zhong Mingwei's hand, tugged gently, and He whispered, "Grandma Chen at the foot of the mountain said that she has promised to take the job for me. I can make money. I really can. Don't worry, okay?"

Zhong Mingwei's heart became even more depressed. He felt that his heart was silted up by this depression. After a while, he said sullenly: "What is Grandma Chen? What kind of work can I do for you?"

Seeing that Zhong Mingwei finally spoke, Ah Chou hurriedly said: "There is a Jixian Bookstore at the foot of the mountain. The teacher there is named Chen. When I went down the mountain, I went there to ask for water a few times. Grandma Chen in their family is very special. Okay, seeing that I do a good job in embroidery, she said that she would go to the village to find work for me. Her old man keeps her word, and she will definitely get me a job. I am also good at embroidery, and I am a serious craft in the palace. The people around here are rare, and there will definitely be more and more people looking for me to do work in the future, and our life will definitely get better and better."
