Chapter 111 – The Power of Dreaming (2)
“Hey, I said, you two,” Gu Xiao felt that he should chime in at this point. His grandson and granddaughter were so mature that he many times that made him felt like he was just an ornament. “Did you forget about your grandpa again? Xiao Ye-zi, do you really think grandpa can’t afford the money to send your brother to school?”
“Grandpa, can you give us an idea of how muChapter money you have left?” Gu Ye had no idea how muChapter Donglong’s military paid and how muChapter her grandpa had saved up in the past 30 years.
The house was newly built and everything inside was newly purchased on top of blankets, clothes, food.... Grandpa had spent so muChapter money in the last month. She was so worried that they’d spend all of her grandpa savings for his golden age.
Gu Xiao seemed to have read her mind and chuckled, “Don’t worry, okay? Grandpa has more money than you think. At least muChapter ore than what you got from the Ding guy!”
Hearing that, Gu Ye’s brows immediately unfurrowed. She had gotten over 600 taels from Young Master Ding. It’d seem that her grandpa was pretty highly ranked in the military in the past. Otherwise, he would not have been able to have suChapter a lucrative saving.
“And, grandpa, what do you mean by ‘money that I got from’ the Ding guy? You made it sound so illegitimate. I legitimately got the money from selling my medicines!” Gu Ye stared in a pouty way. Her lively look made Gu Xiao and Gu Ming chuckled even more.
Gu Ming was glad he made the decision that he did. If they had stayed where they were, his sister would only continue to languish and wither away. Their situation is muChapter better now, his sister was becoming more and more lively and her healthy getting better by the day. She was also getting prettier and prettier. Seeing his sister like that, Gu Ming was very appreciative of his grandpa. He was appreciative of this stable and peaceful life that he had provided for them...
Gu Xiao chuckled for a bit and suddenly recalled something and said, “Never mind the money from the raw herbs and the money from the Ding’s. We can’t take the money from selling the medicinal herbs, those belong to your master.”
Those were her medicines! And the money was hers too! Gu Ye couldn’t only scream feebly to herself. That being said, she did use her master as an excuse left and right, so she had no choice but to nod. Her master probably, perhaps, maybe wouldn’t accept the money?
Gu Xiao noticed that even though his granddaughter was a little money-grubber, but she did understand the whole picture. He nodded satisfyingly and patted her on her head, “If you feel sad about parting with those money, grandpa and pay you the difference. Grandpa’s money is only going to go to the two of you anyway. It doesn’t matter when I give them to you.”
“That won’t be necessary!” said Gu Ye as she shook her head like a hand drum. “Ye-er’s medicinal herbal skill will only get better and better. Once I’ve learned all the techniques from master, I will never need to worry about money again. Grandpa should hold on to your own money; I don’t want to misplace them.”
The techniques of the sage apothecary were the products of 50-60 years of researChapter and hard work; it’d be no small feat to “learn them all”. But Gu Xiao felt that he should be encouraging to the child so he smiled and said, “Okay! Our little Ye-er is so driven! Grandpa will wait for you to take care of me!”
“Yes, yes. When I earned enough money in the future, we will buy a big house in capital city. And also lots and lots of shops. Then none of us will need to work anymore; we will just live off of the rents that we collect!” Gu Ye could already see that in her head; she smiled so muChapter that her eyes turned into a slit.
