Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich
Chapter 55 Selling one’s body to bury one’s father
Jiang Nan did not regain consciousness until noon the next day.
Jiang Nan still remembers what happened in the dream clearly.
In the dream, little Gu Yanzhou was bullied.
As an adult, Gu Yanzhou took great pains to plan everything, but in the end he failed to take revenge and died of his injuries.
Jiang Nan closed his eyes. The scenes in his dream were crystal clear frame by frame. Unlike his previous dreams, he would forget everything after waking up.
Jiang Nan felt so distressed that he felt as if someone was strangling him and he couldn't breathe.
Tears dripped from the corners of my eyes.
"Her father, look why Nan Nan is crying again. I have never seen her cry so hard since she was a child," Jiang's mother quickly raised her hand to wipe Jiang Nan's tears.
Jiang Nan was pulled back from his sad mood when he heard Jiang's mother's voice.
His eyelashes were wet with tears. When Jiang Nan opened his eyes, he saw Father and Mother Jiang looking at him nervously, with two little kids beside them.
"Nannan, you're finally awake. Your mother and I were so scared. Tell your parents what happened. Don't keep it to yourself."
Father Jiang looked at Jiang Nan's sad eyes and felt heartbroken.
"I'm fine, I just had a nightmare," Jiang Nan spoke slowly under the concerned gazes of his father and mother.
"Mom and Dad, go back and rest. I'm fine."
It is now daytime and looking at the sun outside the window, it is probably noon.
As a doctor, Jiang Nan, combined with his own physical discomfort, knew that he was sick.
I guess he got drunk when he went out to see Gu Yanzhou off yesterday when it was snowing.
Now I feel completely powerless.
"Okay, then you should take a good rest. If you have any problems, call me and your mother."
After saying this, Father Jiang took Mother Jiang and the two children out.
Jiang Nan has been the closest to him since childhood. Although Jiang Nan said that he was fine, his father still felt that Jiang Nan was in a bad mood.
"Nannan is still sick, why did you pull me out!" Mother Jiang looked at Father Jiang with complaints in her eyes.
"You've been tired all day, take a good rest."
Father Jiang didn't say much. He considerately pushed Mother Jiang into the room and asked her to take the two children to rest.
Since they discovered that Jiang Nan had a high fever in the middle of the night, Jiang's father, Jiang's mother and the two children had not slept since then.
Even though Jiang Shuang was so young that he couldn't hold on any longer and dozed off while sitting there, he still insisted on staying by Jiang Nan's side and was unwilling to go to Jiang's mother's room next door to rest.
Jiang Nan is the only relative the two children have in this world.
Father Jiang thought it was already noon, so he went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Jiang Nan was the only one left in the room, and he took off the fake smile he had put on in front of his father and mother.
"Gu Yanzhou, is this what you want to do in my dream?" Jiang Nan murmured as he raised his hand and looked at the jade bracelet on his wrist.
-------------------------------------
Jiang Nan recovered after two days of rest.
During this period, Jiang Nan asked Jiang's father and Jiang's mother to open the business, because how could the business be carried out if it was always closed.
The two of them couldn't persuade Jiang Nan and had to agree.
After two days of rest, Jiang Nan figured out a lot of things.
Even if Gu Yanzhou was just as he had dreamed, he had no power or influence and could not help him.
Only if your own abilities match his can you become his helper.
After the vacation, Jiang Nan continued to see patients at the Sizhen Hall.
During this period, Jiang's father and mother were busy with the restaurant business, which was quite booming and had many repeat customers.
The two of them were too busy taking care of the children, so the task of finding workers naturally fell on Jiang Nan.
However, the few applicants who came were either too old or too young and not very suitable for the position.
That day, when Jiang Nan got off work and just walked out of the Fourth Clinic, he saw a lot of people gathered around the clinic, pointing and talking.
"Hey girl, you are selling yourself to bury your father. Five taels of silver, are you two going to share it?" A man with pockmarks on his face asked with a sly smile.
"No, it's just my sister," the younger woman quickly waved her hands to distance herself from the matter.
"I'll pay you two sisters six taels of silver to serve me together, and I guarantee that you two will eat and drink well." The pockmarked man touched his wallet with an air of wealth.
"Sir, my sister doesn't sell herself."
When Jiang Nan heard about selling herself to bury her father, she stopped and squeezed into the crowd.
The two sisters were kneeling on the ground with a rolled-up torn straw mat beside them. The older girl had a piece of straw stuck in her head.
Jiang Nan never expected that the woman who sold herself to bury her father on TV was actually true.
The two sisters were pretty, especially the younger one, who had grown into a graceful and elegant lady at a young age.
Jiang Nan looked at the two of them. The woman who was selling herself looked about the same age as her. She had made some money from the shop these days, so she could buy her and let her help out in the restaurant.
Jiang Nan turned around and went to the fourth clinic again.
"Doctor Song, can I lend you five taels of silver and return it to you when I come tomorrow?" Jiang Nan said to Song Qingyu.
"What do you want so much silver for?" Song Qingyu asked calmly.
Five taels of silver is neither a lot nor a little.
"Hasn't our restaurant opened yet? I'm too busy to see patients here. By chance, there's a girl on the street selling herself to bury her father for five taels of silver."
"Sanqi, go get the money for Doctor Jiang."
"Thank you, Doctor Song," Jiang Nan hurriedly thanked Song Qingyu when he heard his agreement.
Holding the silver, Jiang Nan squeezed in again, only to see the pockmarked man dragging two girls away.
The two girls were so scared that they started crying and struggled desperately.
"Sir, we are both from an honest family. Even if we sell ourselves to bury our father, it must be consensual. If it were me, I would be willing to go with you, but my sister will not sell herself."
"Stop it," Jiang Nan shouted.
When the pockmarked man saw Jiang Nan, his face was full of disdain.
"If you don't want to cause trouble for yourself, I advise you to stay out of other people's business."
After saying that, he ignored Jiang Nan and dragged the two girls away.
He looked like a scoundrel and didn't even bother to care about the corpse wrapped in a tattered mat next to the girl.
"Sir, you can't force us. You didn't even give us money. How can you do this?"
The onlookers were just joining in the fun, but no one came forward to help the two sisters.
Jiang Nan originally wanted to help the two girls report to the police, but when he heard that the man hadn't even given him the money, he quickly grabbed the prostitute and said to the pockmarked man, "I bought this girl, please let her go."
After Jiang Nan finished speaking, he showed the silver in his hand to the crowd and then stuffed the silver into the hands of the prostitute.
"I have already bought the person. If you don't let go, we will go to the county government office and ask the county magistrate to reason with us."
"You, you, you just wait for me," the man let go when he heard that he was going to see the official, and he did not forget to threaten Jiang Nan before leaving.
"Thank you for saving my life," the prostitute pulled her sister and was about to kowtow to Jiang Nan to express her gratitude.
"Oh, no need, get up quickly." Jiang Nan was startled. She was not used to the ancient people kneeling at every turn.
"Miss, my name is Qingying and this is my sister Qingtao. Where do you live? I will come to you after I have dealt with my father." Qingying said respectfully to Jiang Nan.
"How about I go with you! You two are just little girls," Jiang Nan became more cautious. If she let the man go and he didn't come back, her money would be wasted.
