Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Chapter 125 Taunting? Su Wanqing has never been afraid of anyone.

She hasn't been able to sleep well these past two nights because of the noise, and during the day she has to take care of her bodily functions, turn her over, and wash her. She's absolutely fed up! She's never been this filial to her own parents! When is she finally going to move out? Once she moves out, the job of taking care of people will definitely fall on Su Wanqing's shoulders!

Uncle Ding blushed and interrupted somewhat awkwardly, "Tingting! What nonsense are you talking about! I didn't groan all night, I just couldn't help groan a few times when the pain was really bad. It really does hurt a bit, and it's a little itchy too."

Su Wanqing ignored Lin Tingting's chatter, removed the gauze to check, and found that the wound was healing well with no signs of infection.

"It's not a big problem, it's growing well. The pain and itching are signs of new tissue growth and nerve recovery. I'll give you a stronger painkiller tonight, and also give you two injections to calm your nerves and relieve pain. You should be able to sleep well then."

Lin Tingting persisted, "What about during the day? Uncle is in pain during the day too, and he needs medicine too!" It would be best if Uncle could lie in bed and sleep during the day, so as not to bother her with so many things!

Su Wanqing then raised her eyes and looked at Lin Tingting gently, "Cousin, it sounds to me like you'd love for Uncle to sleep during the day so you don't have to bother taking care of him? Uncle usually dotes on you so much, and you can't even stand it after just two days of serving him?"

She paused, then her tone became more earnest: "Cousin, I'm not trying to be mean, but when you first came, you said all those nice things, like you'd take good care of Auntie and make her feel comfortable. And what happened? The food you cooked was so bad even a dog wouldn't want to eat it."

Even if you didn't marry your cousin, would you no longer be your aunt's niece? Would you no longer take care of your aunt and uncle? Would they no longer be your elders? You've only been here a few days, and I've already asked you to do some work, like milking a goat. Yan Shen can always milk a whole basinful, but you only manage a shallow bowlful. Who's going to drink that? Your uncle needs nutrition, and your aunt needs to recover. Is this how you're going to treat her?

Su Wanqing's words, spoken from a moral high ground, were all reasonable and directly attacked Lin Tingting's selfishness and spoiled nature, leaving her speechless and her face flushed red.

Su Wanqing's lips curved into an almost imperceptible smile.

A few days ago, she was worried that Lin Tingting might really quit and run away, leaving no one to do the chores around the house. Now... if Lin Tingting dares to abandon her uncle who has just had surgery, then she's doomed at home. Besides, Lin Tingting has been doing dirty and tiring work for so long, she should be used to it by now.

She disciplined her mother-in-law and sister-in-law with a single chopstick.

Lin Tingting's chest heaved with anger, but she couldn't refute it. She could only look at Zhou's mother with a wronged expression: "Auntie! Look at my cousin-in-law..."

Zhou's mother clicked her tongue, recalling what Su Wanqing had mentioned about sheep's milk candy. "Tingting, what your cousin-in-law said makes sense. Next time you milk, try to milk more. Your uncle is weak and needs to be nourished. Besides, your cousin-in-law said that if we have enough sheep's milk, she'll make us that... sheep's milk candy."

Lin Tingting stomped her foot, almost crying in anger. She came here to cultivate a relationship with her cousin Yan Shen, not to be a maid and milk a goat!

And Auntie, didn't we agree to bully Su Wanqing together? Why are you eyeing that damn mutton brittle candy now? What's so good about mutton brittle candy? Even a dog wouldn't eat it!

That night, Su Wanqing changed Ding Dajiu's dressing and gave him acupuncture, and he slept soundly through the night.

The matter was temporarily forgotten. Su Wanqing was unaware that her good cousin Lin Tingting had secretly sent a telegram to Ding Dajiu's eldest son and second daughter. They learned that the old man had undergone surgery without permission, had two pieces of flesh removed, and was now completely bedridden. They were in a frenzy over this.

The next day, Su Wanqing felt much better; her period was almost over, and she felt relaxed. Looking at the goat milk she had collected, she had a sudden inspiration. She took some simple tools and started making soft goat milk candy when there were no patients at the clinic.

Dissolve the fruit candy in water, add goat milk and stir well, then add crushed peanuts and stir again. Turn the mixture onto a cutting board, flatten it, and cut it into pieces.

The milk candy made this way is just like milk candy—chewy, sweet, and creamy with a milky aroma. It's delicious, super delicious!

She packed all the milk candies into five lunchboxes and then snapped her fingers.

"Golden Spirit!"

Ten times the return!

Su Wanqing discovered another space card bug: she could treat containers and items as a whole and put them into the space together to get ten times the return. This way, she could have ten more containers, provided that the containers were completely sealed.

Her experiments over the past few days have shown that while the rules regarding money and currency are very strict, the rules regarding supplies are much more lenient.

In this way, she instantly gained fifty extra iron lunchboxes of mutton brittle candy. She put them into her spatial storage and then repackaged the mutton brittle candy into bags made of oil paper.

Whether you're giving it as a gift to show goodwill or eating it yourself, it's a great choice. It's even more presentable than fruit candy. Of course, more importantly, you get a lot of free lunchboxes.

Su Wanqing pondered: Could we exploit another bug, like putting another layer of floral fabric over the metal lunchbox, then a quilt over the fabric, and then a sheet over the quilt... Hmm, I'll try that next time!

As for the mutton brittle candy, you can take two bags when you visit Secretary Li, and also some novel foods like fermented rice wine that aren't available here.

Just as they finished cooking, before they could even eat a few pieces, Chuncao arrived with Ga Laosan, carrying a full basket of eggs and a large piece of cured meat wrapped in oil paper. It seemed they had brought all the good stuff they could offer from home.

Although Ga Laosan's face was still a little pale, he was in good spirits. As soon as he saw Su Wanqing, he pushed away Chuncao's hand, knelt down and kowtowed quickly.

Su Wanqing: "..."

"Alright, alright, get up!" Su Wanqing helped the person up. "You've thanked me, but you really don't need the things. Take them back for Lao San to help him recover. You're all struggling financially."

Ga Laosan chuckled and insisted on stuffing the things into Su Wanqing's hands: "Dr. Su, please don't refuse! My life isn't worth more than a few eggs and cured meat? You practically pulled me back from the brink of death twice! From now on, I'll count on you! Didn't you say last time that I could help you with some work for a few days after I recovered? I'm always ready to come!"

Seeing that he was sincere, Su Wanqing accepted the eggs and cured meat: "Okay, I appreciate your kindness. Once you've fully recovered, I happen to have something I'd like you to help me with."

"Okay! Sure! Definitely!"

Before leaving, Su Wanqing wrapped a small bag of freshly made sheep's flaky milk candy in oil paper and insisted on giving it to Chuncao: "Take this, give the little one a sweet treat." Ga Laosan and Chuncao thanked her profusely again before leaving, turning back every few steps.

Before leaving work at noon, Su Wanqing, who had been slacking off all morning, was in a good mood. She hummed an off-key song as she carried cured meat and eggs home.

She was thinking to herself that with more and more stuff in the house, chickens in the front yard, and lamb for smoking in the back, the space was indeed getting small. Even if Zhou's mother and Lin Tingting moved to the new brick house in a few days, they would still need to stock up on firewood, grain, and pickled vegetables for the winter, so it would be best to have a dedicated warehouse.
