Liu Qing rolled her eyes angrily, "I was punished to kneel, are you so happy?"

Qing Yan quirked her eyebrows and said with a smile:

"Yeah, how did you guess that? That's amazing."

Liu Qing gritted her teeth and looked at her with a smile on her face, "When the young master calms down, I will have a good discussion with you."

Qing Yan shrugged and said boredly:

"Liu Yi will be back soon. If you can beat him, come and spar with me."

Liu Qing was so angry that her voice trembled, "You, you, you..."

Qing Yan glanced at him with disgust, "Goodbye, you, you, you, just kneel down, I'm leaving."

After that, she turned around and left, leaving the willows alone and messy in the wind.

Zhao Zhizhi had a good dream and felt refreshed when he woke up.

She stretched herself and was about to go out when she heard a conversation coming from the main room, obviously the voices of Father Zhao and several brothers.

Zhao Zhizhi quietly put his ear to the door and listened carefully.

"The famine has become more and more serious recently. Everyone is trying to hoard food and money is being withdrawn. The work in the town is difficult."

Father Zhao's voice sounded dull and a little depressed.

Then came Zhao Yimu's voice, "Dad, what we are concerned about now is not the lack of work, but the fact that our boss is still holding back our wages."

Zhao Ermu said angrily:

"If he doesn't pay, we brothers will force him to pay, and we won't be given a penny less in wages."

Zhao Sanmu had a calmer temper and immediately refuted his proposal, "Let's not mention that we still have to work under him. Even if you realize your retreat and coerce and induce him to pay wages, you can beat dozens of his men. Worker?"

Zhao Ermu frowned and whispered, "Then what do you think we should do?"

"Without money, we can't store food, so how can we survive the winter?"

Father Zhao slammed the table and shouted loudly: "Okay, stop arguing."

When the three brothers heard this, they immediately shut their mouths.

Father Zhao said in a deep voice: "Listen up, you guys. We will go to town tomorrow to see if we can learn other jobs. As long as we can make money, we will do it no matter what job it is."

The three brothers looked at each other and said in unison: "I know, Dad."

After there was no sound in the main room, Zhao Zhizhi returned to the bed and sat down with his heart full of thoughts.

Father Zhao never told her these things, and she didn't know that her family was in such difficulty now.

I still have space for myself, and I never worry about food and drink.

But the Zhao family's father and brother didn't know about this, and she couldn't tell them about the space.

This matter seemed to be trapped in an endless loop, and even she couldn't find an exit.

Zhao Zhizhi leaned back against the wall, picked up the pillow and began to rack his brains to think of a solution.

She had to come up with a compromise that would allow the food and other items in the space to be used openly.

The first breakthrough to achieve this condition lies in silver.

Otherwise, she would try her luck in the town to see if she could find a suitable job.

It doesn't matter if the salary is low, she just needs a suitable reason.

Although she goes to Dr. Liu's home for consultations almost every day, most of them are free clinics and she rarely receives anything or money.

That day, Zhao Zhizhi was so obsessed with thinking that he accidentally mixed up the herbs.

Doctor Liu saw her distracted look and came over to help her adjust the herbs.

Pretending to be casual, he asked, "Zhizhi, are you thinking of spring?"

Zhao Zhizhi didn't hear what he said at all. He only nodded subconsciously when he heard his name.

Doctor Liu sat on the small bench and asked curiously:

"Come, tell Master which young man stole your heart."

Zhao Zhizhi realized what he said and hurriedly explained:

"I don't. Master, please don't talk nonsense. How can you, a little old man, imitate those gossipy women?"

Doctor Liu's face was stern, and he couldn't help but give Zhao Zhizhi a slap in the face, "As a master, it's nothing to care about my apprentice."

Zhao Zhizhi covered his forehead, bared his teeth and begged for mercy:

"Sure, I said something wrong. Master, you have a lot, don't care about me."

Doctor Liu snorted softly and said mischievously: "Don't talk to me about whether these are available or not. Tell me, what were you thinking just now? You even mixed up the herbs. If you say it's okay, I definitely don't believe it." "

There was nothing he couldn't say. Zhao Zhizhi told Doctor Liu about his worries.

Doctor Liu stood up and returned to the main room without saying a word.

After a while, he came out carrying a basket containing herbs.

Zhao Zhizhi raised his eyes and glanced at the sun that had already set, and said doubtfully:

"Master, what time is it now, are you still planning to go to the mountain to collect medicine?"

It takes several hours to walk on that mountain road alone, not to mention that herbs are scarce at this stage. You have to go deep into the mountains to try your luck and pick a few herbs.

Doctor Liu looked at her and said, "No need to ask anything, just follow me."

Zhao Zhizhi did not doubt his presence and followed him.

It wasn't until the two of them got on the mule carriage going to the town that Zhao Zhizhi realized that he had gone astray.

Zhao Zhizhi followed Dr. Liu to his old friend's house. After watching the two talking, Dr. Liu gave him the herbs behind him in exchange for dozens of pieces of silver.

Only then did she realize that Dr. Liu had presented her with a way to make money.

On the way back, Doctor Liu divided the silver into two and gave her half.

Zhao Zhizhi still wanted to shirk it, but Dr. Liu reprimanded him: "You can't refuse the gift from the elders. Don't you know this truth?"

"Besides, you picked the herbs at home from the mountains. This is the share of money you deserve."

Helpless, Zhao Zhizhi could only accept the money.

To be honest, she felt a little guilty towards Dr. Liu. Dr. Liu gave her all the gold medals to avoid death and told her the past, without treating her as an outsider at all.

However, due to various reasons, she could not expose the matter of space, not even Doctor Liu, who regarded her as her own child, could not tell her.

Zhao Zhizhi lowered his eyes, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart, but he had no other choice.

Space matters are too unorthodox for this era, and it is unknown what the consequences will be if someone discovers it. What she fears is that it will harm her relatives.

I can only show more respect to him in the future.

With a way to get money, and with Dr. Liu's consent, Zhao Zhizhi went to town the next day, planning to sell all the herbs she had left unused.

The location of the medicine hall was a bit remote. If Doctor Liu hadn't led the way here once, she would never have been able to touch this place.

Today, there is another person in the hall, dressed like a medicine boy.

When the medicine boy saw someone coming in, he rushed to greet him and asked politely:

"Does the girl want to buy some medicine?"
