Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside-Chapter 987: Brother Qin

Tian Xiwang and his wife listened, then immediately praised, "Our Hui ’Er is smart, just a quick thought and she brings us another golden son-in-law. Fine, we’ll listen to Hui ’Er, whatever you say, we’ll do."

Initially, when the Gu Family found them, they were afraid of Granny Gu and didn’t want legal trouble; they were unwilling to testify. But Hui ’Er said the Dai Family wouldn’t do, they wouldn’t lead a good life following them, they’d need to rely on the Gu Family to redeem themselves and seek other paths.

As a result, they redeemed themselves to gain a good register, got a house and land, and a sum of silver. Life became much better than when they were with the Dai Family, no longer having to humble themselves before the housekeeper.

However...

"That old man Yuan already declared he wouldn’t associate with our family, so how can we find him to get information on Qin San Lang?" Tian Xiwang said worriedly.

Tian Hui ’Er smiled, "Father, don’t worry, your daughter has her ways."

Although Yuan Jiagui despised them, he cared about his grandchildren, especially Yuan Xiaohu, who was unhealthy. If she made some nourishing porridge and brought it to her, wouldn’t Yuan Jiagui open the door?

Tian Hui ’Er was bold and decisive, fearing that if delayed, she might miss the chance to make Qin San Lang her good husband. She immediately convinced her mother to spend silver to buy ingredients for porridge.

Tian Xiwang’s wife was distressed, cursed Yuan Xiaohu a few times, but thinking a bowl of porridge could catch a golden son-in-law, she willingly bought rice and chicken.

It must be said, Tian Hui ’Er’s luck was great, just as the chicken porridge finished cooking, Qin San Lang personally arrived at the Yuan Family’s door.

However, Gu Jinli was also there; they came to discuss matters with Yuan Jiagui.

Erqing went to the Yuan Family to knock on the door. Qin San Lang lifted the carriage curtain and smiled at Gu Jinli inside, "We’re here, let’s get out."

Gu Jinli had been confined in the house for some time, eagerly waiting for Qin San Lang’s return. Mrs. Cui finally let her out, making her very happy. She held onto Qin San Lang’s arm and jumped off the mule cart with a smile, "Look, my skills are still so neat and agile."

Qin San Lang laughed, "Indeed, Xiao Yu’s hand skills are formidable."

Praising her, while holding her hand, they walked towards the Yuan Family.

Soon, Brother En opened the door and was surprised to see Qin San Lang, "Benefactor brother, is it you..."

He was about to call for Yuan Jiagui inside when Qin San Lang stopped him, "Don’t call, let’s just go in and see your grandfather, we need to discuss something."

Brother En was very obedient, immediately inviting Qin San Lang and the others inside.

"Brother En, who’s here?" Yuan Jiagui was sharpening a set of tools for treating livestock, looked up, and was startled, "Benefactor, why have you come?"

Qin San Lang wasted no time, stating his purpose directly, "Your skill in treating livestock is remarkable, I’d like you to teach a few people. You won’t teach for free, each month you’ll receive ten taels of silver as salary, and upon training them successfully, you’ll be rewarded with five hundred taels as a master’s gratuity."

At other places, he raises horses and will raise many more, and even one ill Ma Jingui horse is significant, so he urgently needs Yuan Jiagui’s expertise.

However, horses in Great Chu are military assets; outside the barracks, even nobles can’t breed them in large numbers. As a minor Company Commander, he’s permitted at most three horses, if more is discovered, it leads to execution.

Thus, he can’t have Yuan Jiagui personally tending horses but must buy his skills and let his men learn from him.

Yuan Jiagui’s proudest was his skill in treating livestock; back in his old Northwestern home, many offered silver seeking apprenticeship, he refused them all.

Yet Qin San Lang had helped his family; he gladly agreed, "Benefactor saved us three generations, your orders are enough, silver is unnecessary."

Qin San Lang shook his head, "Your willingness to impart knowledge is enough, silver must be given to you."

He glanced at Brother En, "You should consider Brother En and Xiaohe."

Yuan Jiagui cherished his grandchildren deeply, hearing this, yielded and accepted the silver, pledging, "Benefactor needn’t worry, I’ll impart all I know, hiding nothing."

Qin San Lang felt satisfied, saying to Yuan Jiagui, "Tomorrow, someone will come to move your family to the residence for the next three years."

Yuan Jiagui, knowing Qin San Lang’s decisiveness, didn’t ask further, just nodded in agreement.

Gu Jinli, having listened for a while, left; Brother En led her to Yuan Xiaohu’s room to check her pulse.

Yuan Xiaohu hadn’t seen her before and was very nervous, but seeing how beautiful she was, her nervousness quickly faded.

"Sister, will I die?" Yuan Xiaohu asked meekly as Gu Jinli checked her pulse.

"Ah?" Gu Jinli laughed, "No, you simply aren’t sick; it’s mostly due to poor diet and being severely malnourished, thus often dizzy."

Yuan Xiaohu wasn’t well; Qin San Lang mentioned that the Yuan Family’s granddaughter fainted twice en route to He’an Prefecture, her health wasn’t good.

She knew Qin San Lang needed Yuan Jiagui’s skill, so she came to treat Yuan Xiaohu.

She believed that if they treated the Yuan Family well, Yuan Jiagui would wholeheartedly assist Qin San Lang.

Gu Jinli added, "I’ll prescribe two recipes, one requires three days, the other a month. After a month, then you just need more meat and eggs daily; your health will slowly improve, don’t worry."

Yuan Xiaohu was very lean, not only from hunger but also due to intestinal worms; three days of medication to expel them would largely cure her.

Yuan Xiaohu obediently nodded, "Mhmm, Xiaohe will listen to Sister and take the medicine obediently."

Brother En listened nearby, extremely grateful, just as he was about to kneel to thank Gu Jinli, he heard Tian Hui ’Er’s voice, "Xiaohe, Sister Hui ’Er is here to see you! I made chicken porridge, it smells so good, come open the door!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Tian Hui ’Er with a basket, in a clean white and red skirt, stood somewhat aggrieved outside the Yuan Family’s gate, cursing You An in her heart.

That damn dog slave dared block her; once she’s married Brother Qin, she’d surely punish him!

Qin San Lang frowned upon hearing Tian Hui ’Er’s voice.

Yuan Jiagui noted his displeasure towards the Tian Family People and hurriedly said, "Benefactor please sit, I’ll send her away myself."

Qin San Lang nodded, "Please go ahead."

Yuan Jiagui instantly rose, reached the courtyard gate, and said through the bamboo gate to Tian Hui ’Er, "Take your porridge back, we have esteemed guests, it’s inconvenient for you to enter."

Tian Hui ’Er was angry but quickly asked, "Esteemed guests? Is it Qin San Lang?"

Yuan Jiagui assumed Tian Hui ’Er favored Gu Jin’an, didn’t expect her to shift her focus to Qin San Lang, relaxed, nodded, "Yes, it’s Benefactor Qin. You know his temper well; he’s not easily trifled with; you better leave."

But Tian Hui ’Er wouldn’t let the chance slip, she shouted towards the courtyard, "Brother Qin, is that you? I’m Tian Hui ’Er from the Tian Family."

Brother Qin?

Pfft~

Gu Jinli heard those words and almost burst into laughter; Tian Hui ’Er, you’re impressive, calling everyone brother is quite a skill.
