I Raised A Sick And Weak Prince

Chapter 18

It had to be said that this game was really good at stirring up the players' emotions. If Su Xi had planned to play it step by step before, then her urge to spend money to unlock the game had reached its peak in an instant!

Who could resist Zaizai's urge? Zaizai stood in front of the table in silence for a moment, then walked to the doorstep of the woodshed and sat down. He put his elbows on his knees and supported his face with his hands. He looked at the silent and empty courtyard alone. The sun was setting in the west.

Su Xi's heart was broken. Really.

She quickly switched to the place where the kitchen chefs lived in Prince Ning Fu. She decided to complete as many side missions as she could as quickly as possible. She had to work herself to death to unlock 100 points as soon as possible.

Of course, what she didn't know was that Lu Huan was sitting in front of the door with no extra emotions on his face. He was just frowning in contemplation.

Although that person didn't answer his question this time, it could at least prove one thing. That person did appear at a regular time.

If he could grasp this time pattern, he could more or less take the initiative.

But of course, Lu Huan knew that person was abnormally vigilant. If he pretended to go out and suddenly returned halfway, that person would have disappeared quickly by the time he appeared in the bamboo forest.

This wasn't a good idea.

In addition, Lu Huan sensed that everything that person had done so far had a clear purpose.

Whether it was repairing the roof or sending birthday noodles, it seemed like they cared about him and were beneficial to him.

And things like replying to his question seemed to be considered meaningless by the other party, so they didn't pay attention to it.

Of course, these were all just Lu Huan's guesses.

That person was really too mysterious. They were elusive and left very few traces.

It was difficult for Lu Huan to get any useful information. He could only guess from every little clue.

So, now that he wanted to know that person's identity, what he had to do was to find a way to make that person leave behind some clues.

Although that person wouldn't reply to his note, what if he used other methods to probe?

He wanted to find that person.

He didn't know why his thoughts were so strong.

Was it because the other party was in the dark while he was in the light? This kind of passivity made him feel insecure.

Or was it because he just wanted to know who the person who took care of him on that snowy night when he was suffering from typhoid fever was. The person who gave him the first birthday gift in his barren life. The person who gave him everything from charcoal boots to animal skin robes. The person who gave him so many things. Who was it? What did he look like? What clothes did he wear? What did he wear? What did he like?

Or perhaps, it was because he was afraid that the other party had come at will and would leave in a hurry like a wisp of smoke after a few days.

If the other party suddenly disappeared one day and never came back, and he could only wait until that day to find out.

Then he …

Lu Huan's fingers involuntarily curled up.

He looked at the rabbit lantern under the eaves that he had poured in new lamp oil and hung it up again. His eyes were dark and gloomy under the candlelight. There were many hidden emotions that were bottomless.

Su Xi found Shifu Ding in the side mission [Let Shifu Ding Be Used by the Protagonist] on the map.

Facing the stream from the side door was the courtyard of Fourth Concubine's other concubines. There were a few walls and a garden in the middle. Further to the right was the place where the servants who had some status lived. Fortunately, it was unlocked last time, so Su Xi could directly click on it.

This was the room of a few kitchen chefs. Shifu Ding was the only one lying on the bunk.

He was a skinny stickman with a dry appearance. He lay on his side on the bed on his last breath. His complexion didn't look very good.

There was a bowl of medicine next to him. There was also a lot of soup and medicine spilled on the ground.

Su Xi tapped on him.

The interface immediately popped up.

"Character: Shifu Ding.

Current Status: Health Bar 20%, Stamina Bar 5. Currently suffering from severe typhoid fever. Due to the lack of medical treatment in ancient times, once the typhoid fever is too severe, there is almost no medicine to save him. He can only wait for death. "

This was indeed the case. Typhoid fever was quite serious in ancient times. The wives of the heir princes might be fine and could invite an imperial physician.

However, Shifu Ding's clothes were tattered and the medicine he drank was obviously from a Jianghu doctor. Perhaps he had spent all the savings he had accumulated in Prince Ning Fu over the years just to see a doctor.

Suddenly, two kitchen servants came in from outside. When they saw Shifu Ding still lying on the bed, they scolded, "Why haven't you left yet?

Didn't the steward tell you to pack up and get lost?! "

Shifu Ding was so skinny that his veins were popping out. He said weakly, "I didn't steal anything from the steward. Even if I resign and return to my hometown, before that, I have to make him clear my innocence!"

"What innocence? Hurry up and get lost. Otherwise, what if your tuberculosis disease spreads to us?

We have old and young people to f * cking take care of! "

The two servants strode forward and suddenly grabbed Shifu Ding's arms and legs. With a strong pull, they actually threw him out of the room.

Shifu Ding fell into the snow and coughed violently. He was like a dying dog and couldn't get up.

This scene was like a background introduction that quickly played in front of Su Xi. Su Xi was stunned and didn't even have time to help the old man up.

Someone rushed in from the side door and quickly helped Shifu Ding up. He stared at the two people with righteous indignation, "You won't have good karma!

Previously, you were still apprentices and my foster father took care of you. Now, you are actually so ungrateful! "

It was Bodyguard Third who went out to sell eggs for Zaizai.

It turned out that these two were foster father and son.

Shifu Ding coughed and shook his head, "Don't cause trouble. Help me to your place first."

Bodyguard Third was an especially sturdy and honest little man. His six-pack abs could be seen through his clothes.

But this fierce man saw his father coughing up mouthful after mouthful of blood and was so anxious that he was about to cry. He wiped his tears and said, "Okay, Father. Don't worry, I will find a way to cure you. The previous doctor didn't work, so let's change to another one."

Shifu Ding smiled bitterly, "Sigh, but the two of us have spent all our savings in Prince Ning Fu for so many years. How can we have money for treatment …"

Bodyguard Third helped Shifu Ding to another courtyard. He frowned for a while and suddenly said, "Why don't we go find Third Young Master to think of a way?"

"Father, did you know that among the eggs that Third Young Master dragged me out to sell today, there were a few double-yolk eggs!

It caused the price to be much higher than usual! "

"Double-yolk eggs?!"

Double-yolk eggs meant great wealth. In the capital, almost all of them were supplied to the imperial family and the price was much higher than normal eggs.

Shifu Ding was very shocked when he heard Bodyguard Third's words.

He knew all the farm products in the capital like the back of his hand, so he felt that it was even more unbelievable!

It was winter now, so the weather was cold and the ground was frozen. All the chickens outside the farms were either dead or sick. The few eggs in the capital were all sent to the residences of the nobles. It could be said that the production of eggs was very low, so it was almost impossible to buy them!

Because of this, the price gradually rose from six to eight copper coins.

But Third Young Master only bought a few chickens and casually raised them in his courtyard. How could he raise more than 190 eggs in a few days?!

That was too much of a fantasy!

Furthermore, his son said that there were double-yolk eggs in those eggs!

"I sold those eggs for a total of three taels of silver and eighty copper coins." Bodyguard Third said bitterly, "I have never seen so much silver in my life!

Father, if we raise chickens, we can also lay so many eggs. Why would we worry about not having enough money to buy medicine? "

The father and son sighed as they returned to Bodyguard Third's residence.

Su Xi looked at the two pitiful people and also sighed for them.

However, when she saw that Bodyguard Fourth was coughing violently, she suddenly thought of a way to complete this side task and win the hearts of these two people for Zaizai.

She opened the shopping mall and secretly left a bag of things in Bodyguard Third's residence.

She also imitated the handwriting on the note that Zaizai left for her.

When the father and son returned to the house, Bodyguard Third was just about to help his foster father sit down and pour him some water when he suddenly saw a few doses of typhoid medicine on the table.

He was shocked.

There was also a note on the side, which detailed the method of decocting the medicine, but it was not signed.

As for the handwriting, Bodyguard Third had read some books before. He only felt that the handwriting was flamboyant and very methodical. At first glance, he could tell that it was written by someone with a high status. It was definitely not written by an ordinary servant.

Bodyguard Third was stunned. These few doses of medicine added up to half a tael of silver. How could someone be so kind?

He was worried about not having enough money to buy medicine for his father's treatment, and now someone sent medicine over. Could it be that his father had a cure?

He cried tears of joy and shook Bodyguard Fourth, "Father, look. Is this sent by a kind person?"

"This is?"

Bodyguard Fourth opened one of the packets of medicine and sniffed it. It was the medicine for typhoid. He was stunned and trembled, "We father and son are poor and have no one to rely on. How could someone lend a helping hand?"

After Su Xi was done, he didn't even have time to take a look at Zaizai's side before the inspection line came up.

The nurse was urging him, so Su Xi quickly put down his phone and went in for the inspection.

On Lu Huan's side, he never expected that the number of eggs these hens would lay over the next few days would be much more than before.

The first time he let Bodyguard Third sell the eggs, he earned thirty taels of silver and eighty copper coins. He only put the three taels of silver into his pouch and gave the other eighty copper coins to Bodyguard Third.

After all, if he wanted someone to work hard, he had to give him some benefits.

Bodyguard Third was previously dejected because of his father's illness, but it seemed that his father's illness had suddenly improved. He was much more spirited and ran errands more cleverly and diligently.

Over the next few days, he continued to sell the eggs as usual. He also used the winter as a reason to raise the price. After repeating this several times, Lu Huan had ten taels of silver in his hands.

It had only been a few days?

He put the silver into his pouch and waited for the eggs to save up the first sum of money. Then he would go to Prince Ning Fu to rent a farm.

Other than that, the chives, zucchini, and other crops that Lu Huan had carefully tended had also begun to show signs of growth. He did not know if that person had left something in the small fenced land that night when he had planted the crops for him, but the growth rate of these plants was far beyond his imagination.

These few days, Lady Ning's side was temporarily calm, as if she was waiting for the day of the hunt.

Lu Huan counted the taels of silver in his hands.

Originally, he had three taels of silver left after buying the materials, tools, and seeds. But now, he earned ten taels just by selling the eggs.

He originally planned to spend five taels of silver to buy birch wood and feathers, but today, he suddenly changed his mind.

He went to the market and bought some other things.

Su Xi and Mother Su went through the discharge procedures together and spent some time packing up the things on the hospital bed.

After she got into the taxi with the help of Father Su with her crutches, she quickly opened the game interface.

Mother Su, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, was furious when she saw that she played games every day. She snatched her phone away and said, "Xixi, how can you play games in the car?

Do you know that it hurts your eyes? "

Su Xi was speechless and had no choice but to get out of the car and play again.

After getting out of the car, Father Su and Mother Su carried their things into the building. She followed them into the elevator with the help of her crutches.

After getting the money from the lottery last time, Father Su and Mother Su had planned to move to a new house. This matter had already been put on the agenda.

Su Xi thought that if they knew that she could live in a new house because of the luck she got from playing games, would they stop her from playing games?!

After returning home, Su Xi finally didn't have to smell the hospital's disinfectant anymore and felt much more relaxed.

She lay down on the sofa and turned on her phone.

As soon as she turned on the screen, Su Xi went straight to Zaizai's room. While going through the hospital procedures, she logged in from time to time, so she knew Zaizai's whereabouts these days.

The number of eggs harvested in the upper right corner had been soaring, which meant that Zaizai had been working hard.

Bodyguard C and Master D were probably too stupid to realize who their benefactor was. Su Xi planned to go online and remind them.

Besides, she found that Zaizai was thinking of ways to make a bow. She planned to buy him one.

Zaizai wasn't in the room, so he must have gone out.

However, just as Su Xi was about to change the interface, she suddenly found that there was another note on the table in the room. It was written on the back of the paper.

She suddenly felt a little anxious. No way, Zaizai sent another message?!

If she still couldn't reply this time, wouldn't he be unhappy again?

However, Su Xi couldn't help but go over to see what was written on it this time.

"I've chosen a gift. I hope you like it."

The handwriting paused slightly at the end, as if he was thinking about something.

Gift?

What gift?

Su Xi's eyes lit up. She was extremely excited. What was this?

Zaizai earned his first money to buy a gift for his old mother?

She suddenly had a feeling of being rewarded. It was like playing a game. She thought that she would only get gold coins and rewards after completing the mission, but she never expected that she would suddenly get a secret treasure!

Moreover, Zaizai's handwriting was too good. She was excited. She didn't even look forward to milk tea from stinky boys in school.

She restrained her trembling hands and flipped over the table. Sure enough, she saw two exquisite carved boxes next to the ink, paper, and inkstone.

In one of the boxes, there was a pearl belt that emitted a faint luster. It should be used by men.

In the other box, there was an exquisite hollow silver hairpin. Under the light reflected from the snow outside, it shone brilliantly and was exceptionally beautiful. It should be used by women.

… Oh my god, they're both so beautiful!

Su Xi was so excited that tears streamed down her face. She pressed her fingers on the two gifts and hesitated to choose!!

Why couldn't this gift be taken out in the game?

No, even if she couldn't take it away, she had to find a way to take it away!
