They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 244 Bad News Good News
"Ok?"

"what?"

"What the hell!"

The three people stared wide-eyed, all wondering if they had misheard.

Zeng Xiaoyan was the first to react, "Sister-in-law Zhichun, you... you said you wanted our Xiaoman to be the manager of your estate?"

Liang Mingliang: "That, Zhi, Zhichun... you, you, you're not joking, are you? I'm not helping my relatives. Xiaoman is only fifteen years old. Can he be in charge?"

Liang Xiaoman was stunned; he couldn't refute his third uncle's words. But—

Doesn't it sound amazing?
An apprentice who doesn't want to be in charge isn't a good apprentice!
He dreams of one day becoming the manager.

Moreover, isn't all that hard work and diligence he put into studying so that one day he can become a manager?

A farm, three hundred acres of fertile land, and a dozen or so servants.
Liang Xiaoman quickly replied, "I...I can, I can! Aunt Zhichun, I can do it. If you trust me, leave this estate to me, and I will definitely manage it well for you, really."

Xu Zhichun was pleased to hear him say that and gave him a thumbs up: "Good, good, good, that's ambitious. Since that's the case, then it's settled. Go back and take good care of your injury. Don't rush it. Nothing is more important than your health. If you're not healthy, you can't do anything. Once you've recovered, I'll take you to the estate to have a look."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll do whatever Aunt Zhichun says!"

Liang Xiaoman's eyes sparkled, and she was so happy that her whole body was shining, sweeping away her previous gloom and sadness.

The young boy's eyes were full of hope and confidence for the future.

Zeng Xiaoyan and Liang Mingliang looked at each other in bewilderment.

this--

They wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

He opened his mouth, then closed it again.
I feel a little dizzy.

So, before they even figured out what was going on, Sister-in-law Zhichun and her nephew had already settled such a big matter?
It wasn't that Liang Mingliang liked to undermine his nephew, but this was no small matter. He couldn't help but kindly suggest, "Zhichun, why don't you discuss this with my father again?"

He knew he wasn't very reliable either, so he couldn't say anything substantial or reasonable, but his father was different.

Liang Xiaoman became anxious, "Third Uncle, you don't need to ask Grandpa, I can do it."

"That's the person in charge!"

"I really can! I've been an apprentice for so many years, I've learned everything I need to learn, I can do it." This didn't seem very convincing, so Liang Xiaoman quickly came up with a solution and added, "Isn't there Aunt Zhichun? If I don't understand something or can't make up my mind, I can just ask Aunt Zhichun for advice, right? If you don't trust me, I trust Aunt Zhichun."

Liang Xiaoman initially didn't believe that Aunt Zhichun could have so much ability to change the village, but now he believes it completely.

Aunt Zhichun has such good taste, of course she's capable!

Liang Mingliang was speechless.

Alright, my nephew makes sense.

But as the uncle, he had to save face.

"Ahem, you must remember this: no matter how much you've learned, you're still just a kid at this age. Don't make any decisions on your own; always remember to ask your Aunt Zhichun."

"Don't worry, Uncle, I will!"

Liang Xiaoman silently scoffed to herself, "He calls him a brat? When they were little, they were exactly the same in the eyes of adults, no different at all. Especially when they were being scolded or beaten."
Zeng Xiaoyan chuckled and gave Liang Mingliang a reproachful look: "Alright! Sister-in-law Zhichun must have her own plans. I think Xiaoman is doing well too! Go Xiaoman, your third sister-in-law believes in you!" Liang Xiaoman was very happy, "Yes, thank you, third sister-in-law!"

"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome."

Liang Mingliang's lips twitched slightly; his wife hadn't said that just now.
Xu Zhichun smiled and thought, "This is so much better."

When Liang Lizheng and Aunt Liang San saw their beloved grandson in this state, their vision blurred and Aunt Liang San almost collapsed.

Aunt Liang clutched her beloved grandson's arm tightly and burst into tears: "Heavens above, what's going on? What's going on?!"

Liang Lizheng stumbled a couple of times, exclaiming, "How...how did things get like this? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's good that we're home, it's good that we're home! Third brother, quickly lend a hand and help Xiaoman down. I'm telling you, don't cry, the child's back, what's there to cry about?"

Liang Xiaoman's face was all smiles. "Grandpa, Grandma, don't worry, I'm fine, really."

Seeing him like this, Aunt Liang and Liang Lizheng were even more distressed. "Alright, alright, it's alright, of course you'll be fine. With Grandpa here, Grandpa will take care of everything for you. Just rest and recover peacefully."

This child is so sensible, afraid of worrying them. Even in this condition, he still pretends to be relaxed and smiles as he talks to them. Who knows how much pain he's in?
Aunt Liang and the village head were so heartbroken that they wished they could take his place.

Liang Mingliang rolled his eyes. "Dad, Mom, please don't be like this. Don't worry, Xiaoman is really alright!"

"Shut up!"

Liang Li glared at him and scolded him angrily, "If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all. The child is right here; it would be so hurt if he heard this!"
Okay, forget it, I'm not going to say anything more.

Liang Mingliang had no choice but to shut up, and he and his father carefully helped their nephew off the oxcart and back into the house.

Xu Zhichun said goodbye and went home. As soon as he got home, he found some usable medicine in the warehouse space.

There are oral medications, topical medications, and most importantly, anti-inflammatory ointments.

Xiaoman will definitely have a fever at night; taking anti-inflammatory medicine will help.

Fortunately, the oral medication was in the form of pills, dark, round, about the size of a thumb, like elixirs, with a strong medicinal aroma, giving it a high-end feel, which was enough to fool people.

Ointments are also easy to fool.

She had fever reducers, but they were either Western medicine pills or traditional Chinese medicine preparations, so there was no way to give them to Liang Xiaoman.

Having prepared all the medicines, Xu Zhichun hurriedly delivered them over, instructing that these should be used first, and the medicine from the pharmacy should be kept for later. If these were ineffective, then the medicine from the pharmacy should be used.

Liang Lizheng was extremely grateful.

They trust her, so they will naturally use her.

Liang Lizheng then gave her the money for the consultation and medicine at the clinic, totaling two taels and six qian. Liang Lizheng's family could easily come up with this amount of money, so Xu Zhichun accepted it.

Liang Minghai and Liu were working in the fields when they returned to the village entrance in the evening. They heard someone talking about their son's situation. Liu felt dizzy and weak in the legs, and almost fell. She and Liang Minghai rushed back home in a hurry.

"Grain Buds! Grain Buds!"

Liu's voice was sharp and trembling as she staggered into the house.

As soon as Aunt Liang came out of the house, she grabbed her arm: "Don't worry, Xiaoman is fine, really fine!"

Liu burst into tears: "Everyone in the village saw that he was covered in injuries and couldn't move at all while sitting in the oxcart. How could he be alright!"
