Just as he was about to get into the carriage, a man's voice came from behind, "Doctor, wait a minute."
Tao Qiqi heard the other party calling her, so she stopped and turned around.
After the man chased after him, he handed over the money in his hand, "I almost forgot about this just now."
Looking at the bunch of silver coins in the man's hand, Tao Qiqi waved her hand, "You don't need so much, it's just a matter of effort."
As soon as Tao Qiqi finished speaking, Tao Qiniang in the carriage heard the conversation outside and stuck her head out and said: "Qiqi, accept it, this is the rule."
After Tao Qiniang's reminder, Tao Qiqi remembered the rules of delivering babies.
(Note: There is an unwritten rule in the Dayong Kingdom, that is, after the mother gives birth to the child, she must give the midwife or the person who delivered the baby a hanging copper plate, which means that the newborn child will go smoothly. The midwife must also accept this
Silver means that future births will go smoothly.)
Looking at the money in the man's hand, Tao Qiqi reached out and took it.
After successfully handing the silver to Tao Qiqi, the man thanked Tao Qiqi and returned to his team.
After Tao Qiqi got on the carriage, she happily put the money into her sleeve pocket, turned around and put the money into the space cash box.
Jiang Ye on the side accidentally saw the happy Tao Qiqi. He didn't know what was going on. His mood seemed to be infected by 'him', and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and then he couldn't help but ask.
: "It's just a hundred coins, is it worth being so happy?"
"Even if it's only a hundred cents, for us people, especially in this famine year, it's a small fortune. What's more, it's earned with our own hands, so it's certainly worth being happy about." Tao.
Qiqi answered while pulling up the horse rope and following Jiang Ye left and right to continue driving the carriage.
Jiang Ye: "I also gave you a lot of money before. If an ordinary family had that money, it would be enough to spend in a lifetime. And you earned it by your own ability, and I have never seen you as happy as you are now!"
Tao Qiqi: "That's different."
When Jiang Ye heard this question, he looked confused. "What's the difference?"
Tao Qiqi casually found an excuse and replied: "I can't tell you what's different. Maybe it's because it's too easy to make money, or it's too much money at once."
Jiang Ye: "There is still too much money to make. Wouldn't it be nice to make it easy? If it is too much, you can just give it back to me. I will give it to you bit by bit in the future."
Tao Qiqi looked at Jiang Ye and replied: "You are so beautiful. How can I ask for money back after I have given it to you? If you give it to me, it is mine. Once it goes into my pocket, you can stop trying to take advantage of them."
"
After hearing Tao Qiqi's answer, Jiang Ye couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile: "What a little money fan."
Tao Qiqi: "I don't deny this. There's nothing wrong with being a little money fanatic. Anyway, I make money with my own ability and my own hands. I don't steal or rob, and I make it openly. Moreover, with money,
Only then can our families live a better life.”
When Tao Qiqi left Tao's house with Tao Qiniang, she vowed to let Tao Qiniang live a better life. She is not a big pie, and she doesn't like to be a big pie, so she has to prove it with practical actions.
.
Making money is inevitable.
Even without Jiang Ye's big deal, Tao Qiqi would have thought of other ways to make money along the way.
After listening to Tao Qiqi's answer, Jiang Ye gave Tao Qiqi an appreciative look. He even saw something worth learning from Tao Qiqi.
It seems that I am not as thoughtful and courageous as an ordinary citizen.
In the past, when someone was protecting him, he could live a simple life with his mother without fighting or grabbing her, pretending to be stupid or useless.
But now that the person who protected their mother and daughter is gone, he can only rely on himself to protect himself.
Not only that, he also works hard to protect his mother.
If you want to protect yourself and your mother well, you may not be able to escape those people by not fighting, pretending to be useless, pretending to be weak.
Only when you are truly strong can you protect yourself and your family and allow your family to live a truly stable life.
Seeing that Jiang Ye didn't speak for a long time, Tao Qiqi asked in confusion: "Why did you stop talking all of a sudden?"
After Jiang Ye came back to his senses, he replied: "No, I'm just thinking about something."
"What are you thinking about that makes you want to be so absorbed in it?"
"It's nothing, I just think I should learn more from you."
After listening to Jiang Ye's words, Tao Qiqi seemed to understand what he wanted to express. She nodded and replied without humility: "Then you should hurry up and study hard during this period. If you don't want to be dominated by others, then work hard to become a strong person."
To dominate others."
"Yeah." Jiang Ye nodded in agreement.
The two of them said nothing after that, and the carriage continued to move forward.
Although everything on the road ahead is unknown, they must work hard to move forward.
The soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth. From now on, Jiang Ye would no longer flinch.
****
At noon, the group did not choose to go into the city for dinner. Instead, they chose a spacious place to stop and cook for themselves.
Working together to escape famine, Tao Qiqi and Fang Yu took turns cooking.
Zhao Song, Zhao Hu, Chang Wu and Chang Ning took turns collecting firewood.
Tao Qiqi is in charge of this meal, and everyone is looking forward to Tao Qiqi's cooking.
However, due to limited space, Tao Qiqi simply made egg dumpling noodles for this meal.
Add water to the white flour and stir it into a paste. Turn the water to a low heat and slowly use chopsticks to pour the batter into the water while quickly cutting it into pieces.
Then add a few eggs, wait until the gnocchi and eggs are cooked, add an appropriate amount of salt and you are ready to eat.
Because there were eggs, Tao Qiqi didn't arrange the meat, but Tao Qiqi gave the noodles a proper amount of lard, which was still fragrant.
Although they have the conditions now, they still need to be a little more controlled and not be too extravagant or too eye-catching.
After eating all the soup and noodles, in order to save water, just clean the bowls and chopsticks with the ashes from the fire just now.
After the meal, Tao Qiqi was not idle. Now that she had a ready-made husband (teacher) by her side, she naturally couldn't waste it.
Let Jiang Ye teach her how to read.
Although the living Tao Qiqi is proficient in the ancient writings of all dynasties due to the special nature of her profession.
But the original owner was illiterate.
So in order to make sure that she could recognize the characters of Dayong Kingdom, Tao Qiqi took this opportunity to drag Jiang Ye to teach her.
If you can recognize everything, you don't have to worry in the future.
If you don’t recognize it fully, then study hard now and find a place to settle down in the future. You also don’t have to worry about being bullied for being illiterate and becoming an ‘illiterate’.
The two brothers Zhao Song and Fang Yu took advantage of Tao Qiqi's study and also joined in the class and studied together.
Tao Qiqi naturally supports it.
Jiang Ye didn't have any objections.
Anyway, he ate the food cooked by others and promised to teach her how to read. It would be good to teach one person, and there would be no loss in following a few others who are eager to learn.
After the scorching sun dropped a little at noon, the group packed up and prepared to continue on their way.
But as soon as everyone here packed up their things, a little guy suddenly ran over and grabbed Fang Yu.
