Chapter 30 Dilemma
"You can do it instead."

"I'm sure I can memorize my brother, but you? Speaking of which, who did you learn from? Your water skills are so good."

"I figured it out myself."

"..."

Shen Qingrou wanted to ask again, but Shen Nanzhou and the others came back.

They just sent Su Yue on a wounded boat, and then came back.

During the meal, Shen Muci thanked Li Erya repeatedly for saving her life. Li Erya was flattered and said that a family should be.

"Okay, let's eat." Shen Nanzhou looked at his son, then at Li Erya, and said kindly.

Shen Muci still had no appetite and only ate a little.

Li Erya didn't have any appetite either, she had a cold, and it was a severe cold, she didn't have a fever, but other symptoms were also uncomfortable, she managed to take the last bite, but couldn't help but rushed out and vomited.

"Are you alright?" Shen Qingrou couldn't help feeling sick seeing her like this.

Li Erya's face was dark, she just vomited the last mouthful of food, as for what, "It's okay, it's just a little nausea."

"If you can't eat, don't eat." Mrs. Shen sighed, "No one blames you."

"I thought I could eat it." Li Erya smiled coyly.

However, she didn't dare to be brave, and offered to drink porridge at night. It would be better for her and Shen Muci to drink porridge, boil millet porridge water, and nourish the stomach.

Mrs. Shen asked her son, and seeing that he still didn't want to eat, she made millet porridge for them both.

It's just that it's easy to get hungry after eating porridge, and her stomach was rumbling with hunger before the middle of the night.

Li Erya patted her stomach and counted the sheep, but she was still sleepy, but she had to close her eyes tightly.

I don't know when it will be dawn, Li Erya is extremely depressed, and now she can't find anything to eat when she wakes up, and she doesn't want to get up, and she doesn't even want to open her eyes.

There was an unexpected sound in the room, Li Erya frowned, and quietly opened a small gap, as if something was walking towards her.

"What do you want?"

"It's noisy."

Shen Muyin put down the chest in her hand, and then hurried back to her room, for fear of being discovered by others.

Li Erya looked at the greased paper on the quilt, opened it, and found that it was a piece of bacon inside, of course it was cooked, but the taste was really so-so, and it could satisfy her hunger anyway.

But thinking that the hero finally saw her sincerity, Li Erya felt a little relieved.

It's a pity that she never found a chance to show her sincerity to Mrs. Shen. She didn't want to occupy the position of Shen Muyin's wife, she could be the daughter of the Shen family. Shen Muci's life should be worth the price.

Just wait a little longer, Li Erya sighed, not thinking about anything else.

Su Yue arrived as scheduled.

Shen Muci's medicine was also brought, but he was still embarrassed by Li Erya.

In fact, he also prescribed medicine to Li Erya, but the medicine didn't have much effect on her problem, it could only alleviate the current symptoms.

"Why don't you ask your master to see if there is any other way?" Su Yue said that the medicine can be taken for up to three days.

"Master... I will definitely ask if I see it." Li Erya was stunned for a moment.

The answer disappointed him a little, Su Yue asked about saving lives.

Li Erya explained carefully.

"Did he teach you anything else?"

"Gone."

She didn't do anything about acupuncture and moxibustion. Li Erya shook her head resolutely, and paid the consultation fee voluntarily.

Su Yue could probably see the current financial difficulties of the Shen family, so he only charged her three pennies, and went back without staying for dinner.

Li Erya took a look at the medicine he prescribed, but it was just an ordinary warming medicine, better than nothing, she decocted the medicine smoothly, she decocted Shen Muci's medicine first, followed by her own.

After she drank the medicine, she found that Mrs. Shen's complexion was very bad, and she needed the medicine more than she did.

Seeing her look like the sky was about to fall, Li Erya felt somewhat uncomfortable, and she didn't want the atmosphere at home to be depressed all the time.

If nothing happened to Shen Muci, perhaps at this moment they had already started looking forward to the ranking in the county examination.

Not only Mrs. Shen's complexion is bad, but even Shen Muci, who survived the catastrophe, is also in a bad mood. He wanted to improve the family's situation, but he didn't expect to cause such a big trouble for the family. One can imagine his mood.

The biggest problem in this family is not money, but psychological. When Li Erya heard Shen Muci talking about the county examination, she just stopped talking and shook her head.

Shen Muyin naturally knew what his brother was thinking, but he could only try to comfort him about this kind of thing and let him take the county exam next year.

"Am I very useless?" Shen Muci couldn't help it anymore, but she just shed tears silently.

"How could it be? Daddy still asked me to learn from you. The mountain torrent was not your fault." Shen Muyin quickly comforted him, "We have been waiting for so many years, we are not short of this year."

"Don't tell dad." Shen Muci sobbed and wiped away his tears.

Shen Muyin nodded vigorously.

Outside the school, Li Erya left He Tong and his friends behind.

He Tong's uncle was a master worker in a pottery workshop, and she hoped that he would let his father help him make a few boxes the size of a rouge box.

"I'll go back and ask my uncle." He Tong nodded solemnly.

"If you have it in stock, you can give me one or two, the price is negotiable." Li Erya urged.

"Understood." He Tong replied loudly.

The next day he brought his uncle and a basket of rouge boxes.

The original porcelain-white rouge box was discarded because of his mistake, stained with red dye, and he was forced to pay the bill, nearly two months' wages. Hearing that Li Erya wanted it, he immediately asked for leave to come in person.

"Do you want these?" The man in his twenties blushed and asked nervously.

Li Erya looked at those rouge boxes, and there was a red seal on the side, which was in the same position. Knowing that it was a defective product and he had paid for it, she hesitated for a moment and then nodded, "How do you sell it?"

"Eighty coins, 76 coins, I won't earn you a penny." He Liqin scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"That won't work, you still have to earn money, and you can't make this trip for nothing." Li Erya smiled, and readily paid him one hundred Wen.

He Liqin took the money and thanked him excitedly, "If you want more, I'll talk to the manager and ask him to give you a cheaper price, okay."

"Okay, if I still want, I'll ask He Tong to tell you." Li Erya smiled slightly, took the things and prepared to work.

As soon as she turned her head, she found Mrs. Shen staring at her with a dark face. She should have been staring at her for a while, but Li Erya was about to explain, but she only saw her back.

"I know you spent the money you earned. I'm not qualified to say anything about you, but you've been married to our family for so long. Don't you know what's going on in the house? What are you doing for this broken box with a hundred pennies? Isn't a hundred wen money money? It's still so generous." Shen Qingrou reprimanded in a low voice.
