Chapter 293 Supporting the Sun Family
As soon as Father Wen left, Wen Shu went back to his room and lit the candles and began to silently write the last few pages of "Shan Hai Jing", intending to complete the manuscript "Shan Hai Jing".

Hong Ying woke up half a quarter of an hour ago, and was standing next to the table watching her write and draw.

What happened during the day made Wen Shu fully aware of how smart the big bird beside her was, so when Hong Ying approached, she intentionally explained to it what she had written.

She even decided that from now on, she would devote half an hour every day to teach Hongying how to read, so that even if it could not speak for the rest of its life, they could still communicate in words.

Although there is not much content in the remaining few pages, it still takes a lot of effort to reproduce the pictures as they are. After all, Wen Shu has only learned to draw for a short time.

Fortunately, the pictures in the Book of Mountains and Seas are relatively simple. As long as you draw them carefully and meticulously, there is no problem in achieving eighty-nine images.

The time passed slowly, and when Wen Shumo finished two pages, Father Wen came back from Sun's house.

Wen Shu asked about Mrs. Li's situation with concern, and saw his father sighed: "I woke up, but my mouth is crooked, and I can't speak very clearly. Dalang's wife has a baby again. I heard that , will have to stay in bed for the next half month.”

Wen Shu was stunned after hearing this.

The house leak happens to be raining all night, it's not wrong at all.

The Sun family's original main business was selling tofu, and the Sun family's father and son did some odd jobs in their spare time. After all these years of making up and living together, they are able to survive.

It’s not easy for Brother Da Lang to marry a daughter-in-law, and he can help Auntie Li sell tofu together, so that the Sun family and his son can spend more time doing odd jobs, earn more money, and save Er Lang’s dowry money for a few more years , this day is basically up.

Unexpectedly, after looking forward to a good day for half a year, this kind of thing happened again.

Now Mrs. Li is sick in bed, not only unable to help sell tofu, but also needs someone to serve her.And Dalang's daughter-in-law, Xiaosun, needs to rest and recuperate because of a convulsion. It's good to be able to take care of herself, so she doesn't have the energy to take care of her.

In this way, the Sun family father and son had to grind tofu and sell tofu, and had to assign a person to take care of the family. There was no way to work outside, plus the money for Mrs. Li's soup. . . .
"Father, do you still have the money from Uncle Sun? If there is any difficulty, let's support it."

Unexpectedly, she would mention this, Father Wen was startled.

Just now at Sun's house, he did hear Sun Dalang and Sun Heping muttering about money in the kitchen, it seemed that Mrs. Li's soup and medicine cost a lot, and Dalang's daughter-in-law is going to give birth in two months. Nothing is ready yet. . . .

He wanted to help out a little bit, but the Sun family father and son didn't mention it to him face to face, he took the initiative to mention it, fearing that he would make trouble in his face.Then I thought about the greeting cards I received in the morning, and thought that if Wen Shu's marriage was really settled, the dowry was not ready yet.

Originally, when marrying an ordinary family, he thought that he would have to prepare at least [-] pennies, but now those families are either rich or expensive, and the dowry can only be high or not low, otherwise Ah Ning will get a lot of stares when he marries.

"I don't know, they didn't mention it to me." Father Wen didn't want to tell Wen Shu that it would burden her.

Wen Shu shook his head, "How can you open your mouth before this kind of thing is brought to a dead end, besides, Uncle Sun doesn't know about our family's situation, so he just treats it as before." Then, he put down his pen, calmly called out the control panel, and opened it from the storage basket. Take out two strings of money.

In the eyes of Old Man Wen, it was Wen Shu who tapped his hand in the air, and then reached out to grab it, and two coins appeared in his hand out of thin air.

"Dad will give these two coins to Uncle Sun tomorrow."

Father Wen hadn't recovered from the miraculous phenomenon just now, he stretched out his hand in a daze, "Where did this money come from?"

"Prospects in teahouses."

"No, I'm asking." Father Wen looked confused, as if he didn't know where to start.

Only then did Wen Shu realize that her father couldn't see the control panel, and quickly pointed to the void and explained: "Oh, it's like this, there are many spaces for storing things inside, like empty warehouses. Most of the things and fruits picked are hidden inside. These warehouses are not only secret but also have a fresh-keeping effect, and the fruits will always maintain their original appearance when they are placed inside."

Father Wen looked surprised, "There is such a magical thing in the world!"

Wen Shu smiled and nodded, "Every time I go to the shop, Mrs. Zhao will give me the money of the day or the past few days, saying that it is not safe to put it in the tea shop, and let me go to "Jiao Zi Wu" in exchange for the money.

"But when I thought about it, there would be a loss when it was exchanged for the transaction and then converted into cash. Since there is this secret carry-on space to put it in, I might as well store it all here."

Speaking of this, she smiled mysteriously, "Guess, dad, how much money did the tea shop make in the past two months?"

Father Wen rarely asked about the operation of the tea shop, because he regarded it as his daughter's private property and dowry from the very beginning, and left it to her to take care of it all by herself.

Hearing the words at this time, he couldn't help being stunned, and immediately estimated: "Wuguan?"

Wen Shu shook his head, then gestured proudly, "It's the twelve guan."

"So many!" Father Wen was a little surprised.

In his opinion, the location of the tea shop is remote, and most of the main sellers are dry food, tea and other routine unprofitable livelihoods.As for the "Wisdom Thirst Water" and "Bright Eyes Thirst Water" made by Wenshu with those miraculous herbs, the price is ridiculously high. Not many people are willing to pay that money, so there should not be many sold.

Now hearing her say that the tea shop has earned [-] pennies, I can't help being surprised and delighted.

"So, dad, just give the two money to Uncle Sun." Wen Shu said cheerfully.

"But your dowry..." Father Wen was still a little confused.

That's not a small amount.

"Father is in such a hurry to marry me off." Wen Shu curled her lips and pretended to sigh: "Hey, it's weird to say that women lose their homes when they grow up. As expected, my father started to dislike me even before I got married. Poor, poor."

"Stop pretending." Father Wen laughed and scolded, "Just like you, if you were other parents, they would have driven you out to beg for food."

"Yes, yes, thank you dad for giving me a bite to eat. Since that's the case, how about staying for two more years." She grinned and grimaced.

Seeing that old man Wen was angry and funny, "Then why not just stay at home and be an old lady."

"Okay. As long as Dad doesn't dislike it."

"I despise you, so hurry up and marry yourself out." Saying that, she turned around and walked out.

"Where is dad going?"

"Send money."

Father Wen felt that since he decided to give the money, don't wait until tomorrow, and feel at ease when he sends it early. If the Sun family waits for the money to be used, they can take advantage of it.

After only two steps, there was another voice from behind, "Father, don't be burdened, I still have a few pieces of valuable jade here."

Father Wen paused, then pinched the two strings of money in his hand, and something seemed to loosen in his heart.

"Understood." He replied lightly, and quickly left with two strings of copper coins.

Seeing that her father's pace was obviously easier than before, Wen Shu smiled and lowered his head to fill in the last page.

And Father Wen was really relieved. As early as when the Sun family heard those words, he thought about lending a helping hand, but when he thought about his own situation and his daughter's dowry, he couldn't help hesitating.

I'm afraid that if I act righteously for a while, I will hurt the girl and be looked down upon by others.

Later, Wen Shu took the initiative to mention that at this time, although he was also happy for his daughter's benevolence, he still had concerns. It wasn't until Wen Shu said that there were still a few pieces of jade in her mysterious space that he really let go of that. tone.
