After Xing'er bandaged up her mother, she bandaged up her second sister again.

She discovered that her second sister was more seriously injured than her mother, which explained why she was crying incessantly from the pain.

While bandaging her wound, she took out two small pieces of maltose from her bosom and gave them to her mother and second sister:

"A couple of bites of candy will make the pain go away."

"Eat up, it's delicious."

Li Taohua and Zhang had drunk the spiritual spring water before, so even though they were in pain now, it didn't hurt as much as before.

After reapplying the medication, the pain in my leg was significantly reduced.

The mother and daughter immediately felt less afraid and less worried.

Li Taohua picked up the candy her third sister had given her, gave one piece to her mother first, and then slowly put the remaining piece into her mouth to chew. The sweet taste gradually spread from her mouth.

"Sweet, so sweet!"

"It's delicious, thank you, Third Sister."

At first, Zhang refused to eat it, but after her two daughters insisted, she put the maltose in her mouth and chewed it slowly. Now she doesn't feel as much pain anymore, and her mood has improved.

She looked at the new hut and sighed:

"It's a pity that the tent you brought back before was so nice, and now you've wasted money buying a new one. What a waste."

Xing'er placed the earthenware jar full of ointment on the shelf and turned to say:

"Mother, don't say that. These are all minor matters. As long as you are all well, nothing else matters."

"Also, we need to get the house up and running as soon as possible, otherwise we won't be able to avoid it if something like this happens again."

Seeing that the two were in much better spirits, Madam Yang spoke up from the side:

"Xing'er, I'm relieved to have you back. We'll go back and check on things first. You take good care of your mother and your second sister."

"Don't worry, Auntie."

"I'll take care of everything!"

Xing'er smiled sweetly at her.

Chen Sanmei continued:

"Okay, then let's go back and take a look first, and we'll come back this afternoon."

"Aunties, you all go ahead and do your work, I'm fine."

Just as everyone stepped out of the tent, she seemed to remember something and called them back, "Aunt Qiuhong, Third Aunt, please wait a moment."

"Is there anything else?"

"I still have some ointment and bandages here. Please take them out and distribute them to everyone. My third grandfather and the others were injured."

"Okay, we're out of medicine at home anyway, so give it all to your mother and second sister."

After Yang and Chen Sanmei finished speaking, they took out the earthenware jar and a large roll of medicine cloth together.

Once the person leaves.

Li Taohua said again, her eyes brimming with tears:

"Third sister, I'm sorry!"

"I kicked you, scolded you, and even trampled the wild fruits you painstakingly picked. I was a terrible sister. Please forgive me. I know I was wrong."

Zhang stroked her second daughter's head and said softly:

"It's good that you know you were wrong. I've said it before: a Taoist priest once said that your third sister was missing a little bit of her mind, which is why she did those outrageous things. Once she gets better, everything will be fine."

You still don't believe what your mother said.

Li Taohua sobbed as she looked at her third sister and cried:

"Mother, I was wrong, Third Sister, please forgive Second Sister."

Xing'er was stunned when she heard her mother's words. The original owner was her ancestor, and she was the missing soul of the ancestor. That meant that the ancestor was her in the past, and she was the ancestor in the future.

Li Taohua cried harder when she saw that her third sister was not speaking.

"Third sister, don't you forgive me?"

Seeing her second sister sobbing uncontrollably, Xing'er finally snapped out of her daze and smiled slightly.

"We're sisters, don't worry, it's okay, I don't blame you. But if you treat me like that again, that won't do."

"I can hit people now."

After she finished speaking, she made a fist gesture, which amused Zhang and Li Taohua.

The two of them smiled.

The wound is pulling and hurting.

"Ouch, ouch, I can't take it anymore, it hurts again, Third Sister!"

"I will never treat you like that again."

She leaned back uncomfortably.

Zhang told her to be careful.

"You're too reckless. You even kicked your third sister in the chest before. Didn't you think about what would have happened if you had hurt her? Who would have saved you then?"

"Mother, I know I was wrong."

"I will never do such a thing again."

"Remember this, no matter what your third sister is like, she's still your third sister."

Done.

She then turned to Xing'er and said:

"Xing'er, I also need to tell you this: if your fourth sister and third brother are disobedient, you should discipline them if necessary, and I will also teach them a lesson. But you must also remember that they are your own siblings."

Xing'er stiffened upon hearing this:

"I don't!"

"Mother, don't interfere in the affairs of us brothers and sisters."

Looking at her stubborn expression, Zhang shook her head helplessly. Both were her children, how could she choose? She could only silently shed tears.

Li Taohua comforted her mother, saying:

"Mother, don't worry so much. Third sister has her own ideas. I will also teach fourth sister and third brother."

"Um...."

Zhang wiped away her tears and softly hummed in agreement.

Xing'er, realizing they hadn't eaten, went outside to the tent and brought out everything usable. The bowls were broken, but the chopsticks were okay, and the bag of brown rice was still there.

It's a pity that the earthenware jar that held the sesame oil was broken.

It pained her to see it.

Just as she was busy, a series of orderly footsteps came from behind her.

Xing'er turned her head and looked.

It turned out that it was the old steward of Master Lu who brought more than two hundred men pushing carts. The carts were loaded with timber, tiles, grain, and vegetables.

Before she could even speak, the old butler was already waving at her cheerfully.

She quickly went to meet him:

"Sir, what's going on?"

The old butler stroked his beard and said:

"My husband knows about your situation. He said he'll definitely help you build a house as soon as possible. It's just a few mud-brick houses. I've brought over two hundred people with me, so don't worry!"

Xing'er smiled helplessly:

"Looks like your husband's made up his mind!"

"Of course, my young master choked again yesterday, and he's still lying in bed complaining of feeling unwell today. Master wishes he could bring him over today."

"Alright, alright, sir, when you get back, tell your master to send him over in three days so I can discipline him myself."

"Alright, alright, I'll get them to start construction now."

"I brought a carpenter and a bricklayer for you today, so you can rest assured."

"Well... thank you very much."

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

"And you don't need to worry about their wages and meals, my master will take care of everything."

"This...this is so embarrassing!"

"Miss Xing'er, if you can accept this, I have already accomplished a great task. This is nothing to my master."

After he finished speaking, he turned to another manager and said:

"You...and you, you take everyone over there now and do a good job. Try to get the house ready for me by tomorrow morning. As for the wages, the master will pay you more than enough."

A middle-aged man wearing a light blue short-sleeved jacket said with a smile:

"Don't worry, old housekeeper, we'll definitely handle things perfectly. We'll get these few rooms sorted out, and we'll even give you a big surprise."
