Chapter 731 The Unlucky Sun Family

At the beginning, she would let the villagers plant some common medicinal herbs, which could be considered a test.

But it's still early. She will wait until she travels around the entire Tianling Kingdom and comes back to stock up enough medicinal materials before these clinics open.

It will take another four or five years for her disciples to become masters.

Hang them for another two years and they will be ready for planting.

"I have my own plans. Pour me a cup of tea. I'm a little thirsty." Jiang Fubao didn't explain much. Pan Erya knew that she knew what she was thinking, so she stopped trying to persuade her.

Soon, the carriage disappeared from the villagers' sight.

As soon as Jiang Fubao left, Sun Mugen's family was in trouble.

Their entire family was dragged back to the village by the villagers of Sunjia Village. The whole village surrounded his house and asked them to give an explanation. If the Jiang family did not give them the medicinal seeds, they would lose the crops in their fields.

In the end, the old couple begged for a long time, and finally the problem was solved with silver after the village chief stepped in.

Sun Mugen's family compensated the entire village with a total of three taels of silver.

Every household can get a little bit, although it’s not much, but it’s better than nothing.

These three taels of silver were all the money the Sun family had. They had originally intended to use it to help their grandson get married.

Without money, he naturally couldn’t find a wife.

In a fit of anger, Sun Mugen's grandson ran away to another place to become a son of a carpenter. The carpenter had no children and was worried that no one would take care of him when he was old.

I was so happy to have a son for nothing.

The Sun family lost a strong laborer, so there was more work to do in the fields.

Because the youngest son ran away, Sun Mugen's son and daughter-in-law were angry with them and wanted to divide the family property.

The Sun family was in chaos all day long and became a laughing stock in the village. They had offended the entire village. Usually, the villagers treated them as invisible people, glared at them and didn't say a word to them. Those with bad tempers would even scold them.

As a result, the Sun family members did not dare to hang around in the village. They would go home early after finishing their work and chopping firewood. As they stayed at home for a long time, they naturally had more quarrels.

Finally, in early December, the Sun family split up.

The old couple seemed to have aged ten years and looked lifeless.

During this period, they made a special trip to the town to complain to their daughter Sun Pingmei and ask her to help ask Jiang Fubao for medicinal seeds.

But Sun Pingmei refused to even see them.

They originally wanted to make a scene in front of Jiang's snack shop, but the police came instead.

The two men ran without even looking back, for fear of being caught and put in jail.

Jiang Fubao told her what he had done and what he planned to do.

Sun Pingmei felt so relieved after hearing this.

It is said that a father is kind and his son is filial, but her parents did not treat her as a human being. When she was at her mother's house, even the animals lived better than her. At least they could have enough to eat, but she was almost starved to death.

The fact that she is alive today and has a good life is all thanks to herself.

From the day she got married, she swore that she would not run away as long as her husband didn't beat her to death.

Who would have thought that the lower your expectations, the better the person you marry.

Her husband had never beaten her. Even when the family was the poorest, he shared his food with her. He was also afraid that she would hurt her body and shorten her lifespan, so he didn't let her have more children. If she hadn't begged him, Tongtu would probably not have been able to give birth to a child.

Her mother-in-law was nice to her. She had a bad mouth but a soft heart.

Sisters-in-law get along even more harmoniously.

Sun Pingmei has long regarded her parents-in-law as her own parents.

The Jiang family is her home.

As for those outside the shop, in her eyes they were not even as good as the regular customers of the shop.

The matter just passed like that, and Sun Mugen and his wife knew that they had raised their daughter in vain by marrying her off.

The two of them cursed each other every day at home, using words like ungrateful wolf, beast, damned little girl, and similar insults.

But Sun Pingmei in the town couldn't hear it at all, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. She was living a very comfortable life now.

At that time in Lianshan Town, the People's Hall outside the city had just opened. The news spread outside the county, the prefecture and even the province, and many poor people from all over the country flocked to the town.

After they learned about the Common People's Hall, each of them held on to the last glimmer of hope and wanted to seek protection from the Common People's Hall.

Because they really can't survive.

Especially this year, the harvest was poor, and the areas near the north have been suffering from drought for a year, so many people have sold their young daughters so that the family can survive.

These poor girls were transferred to many places and were finally bought by Jiang Huanyu, who helped them escape from slavery and let them work in the People's Hall. She asked the steward to save their monthly wages and give them to them when they grew up.

When Yue Zhongjiang and Tongtu got married, the Baixing Hall was already packed with people, and many people had no place to live.

A house that costs only one penny can no longer accommodate even six people in one room.

Jiang Huanyu had no choice but to rent two more houses before he could accommodate them all.

So that they won’t be left without a place to live in the middle of winter.

The Common People's Hall officially began to operate, and after getting married, Jiang Tongtu seemed to have transformed from a child into an adult overnight.

He has matured a lot. Together with his brothers Jiang Tonghuo and Jiang Huanyu, he runs the Baixing Hall very well. Now the homeless people have a home.

I also have a job that can make money.

Everyone thinks that as long as they work hard, they can save money, leave the common people's hall, buy land and build a house, and start a new life.

that's the truth.

The following spring, a heavy rain broke the river bank. Jiang Huanyu and his two sisters found Meng Bujiu and suggested that the People's Hall send people to repair the river bank. Meng Bujiu, who had already been informed by Jiang Fubao, cooperated very well.

This matter has no disadvantages for him.

The people were relieved of the suffering of corvee labor and the county government also saved money.

For the three siblings, there were even greater benefits. Under the pretext of repairing the river embankment, they raised a lot of donations from Ruling Prefecture.

This money was used to pay the workers to repair the river embankment. It paid more than corvée labor and was not as hard. If they wanted to quit, they could leave as there was always someone to take their place, and there were even a few hundred taels of silver left over.

There was never a shortage of money in the account of Baixingtang. In just half a year, the Jiang family no longer needed subsidies.

Zhang Jinlan was very pleased.

The names and portraits of the wealthy businessmen who donated money were posted at the gate of the Common People's Hall, where a board like a modern blackboard was installed. This was the idea given by Jiang Fubao.

The names and portraits are posted so that one can see them at a glance even if one is passing by in a carriage.

Very conspicuous.

These gentlemen and ladies who donated money were extremely satisfied. Some even felt that they had donated too little and that it would not look good if the donations were hung up, so they planned to donate more in the future.

Some people even started to compete with each other, thinking that they must surpass each other next time and strive to have their portraits and names posted on the top.

With their portraits, these people are remembered by the people in the city and can be respected wherever they go.

It has never existed before.

The three siblings even planned to open a clinic in Yingnan Prefecture next year, and then follow the example of the Ren'ai Clinic and open clinics all over the Tianling Kingdom.

Jiang Fubao gave them his support and gave them the shop in Yingnan Prefecture that Meng Bujiu had given them.

The area is very large, with two floors and a large yard.
