Thanks to your hard work, your wife is finally pregnant.

[Made indelible contributions to the development and growth of the family]

[Gain 20 achievement points]

Name: Jiang Yun

Age: 21

[Talent: Celestial Bones (A rare find, the appearance of an immortal)]

[Entry: Perennial Sixth Place]

[Achievement: 20/100]

Jiang Yun paused slightly, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

Basic achievement?

It seems there are far too many achievements, both big and small.

Furthermore, some of their achievements are quite grand and their concepts are broad.

Therefore, it is divided into four stages: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and final achievement.

These grand and broad achievements would allow Jiang Yun to earn multiple achievement points.

This is a good thing.

The more achievement points you earn, the more entries and rewards you will receive.

Today is truly a day of double happiness.

……

"Would you like a dose of medicine to prevent miscarriage?"

Fang Bingchu asked Jiang Yun, who was all smiles.

"How much?"

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment.

I think it's good to have a pregnancy-stabilizing medication on hand as a precaution.

In addition, although Fang Bingchu's consultation fees were quite high, he still had some reputation in Qingshan Village.

He was just selling medicinal herbs.

He is not a heartless doctor.

They will not deliberately exaggerate the illness or frighten the patient's relatives in order to sell expensive medicines for profit.

"A regular dose of pregnancy-preserving medicine costs fifty coins, as for better ones..."

Fang Bingchu explained the price of the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine to Jiang Yun.

The cheapest is fifty coins, while the most expensive ranges from a few taels to tens of taels.

Jiang Yun learned about it.

The medicine for preventing miscarriage, which costs fifty coins, is made from common herbs such as angelica, scutellaria, and peony.

Pregnancy-stabilizing medicines weighing several ounces to tens of ounces contain precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and donkey-hide gelatin.

"Let's get a regular one."

Jiang Yun certainly cannot afford expensive pregnancy-preserving drugs at this stage.

Given the limited reproductive conditions of this era, we had no choice but to get the cheapest one.

"My husband!"

Upon hearing that Jiang Yun wanted to buy medicine to prevent miscarriage, Fang hurriedly came to Jiang Yun's side and grabbed her arm.

"What's wrong, Ling'er?"

Jiang Yun turned to look at Fang Ling.

She bit her lip, shook her head vigorously, and looked anxious, as if she was about to cry.

Jiang Yun understood instantly.

Ling'er was reluctant to spend fifty coins on a dose of medicine to prevent miscarriage.

"Never mind, thank you for your help, Dr. Fang."

Seeing Fang Ling shaking her head vigorously, Jiang Yun gave up.

"Hehe, it's alright."

Fang Bingchu chuckled.

He was somewhat pleased with the compliment of being called a miracle doctor.

In reality, his medical skills were far inferior to those of the famous doctors in the county.

The title of "miracle doctor" will never be bestowed upon him.

"Thank you, Dr. Fang."

Fang Ling bowed and thanked Fang Bingchu.

She then left the clinic with Jiang Yun.

"My lord, Ling'er is perfectly healthy, why does she need that pregnancy-stabilizing medicine?"

Outside the clinic, Fang Ling said reproachfully.

Today's consultation cost thirty coins.

She absolutely couldn't bear to spend another fifty coins on medicine to prevent miscarriage.

Jiang Yun smiled but did not reply.

But I felt a little bitter inside.

Ultimately, we were still too poor.

Even fifty coins for pregnancy-preserving medicine were barely enough.

If her family had ten thousand taels of silver, Ling'er wouldn't have felt bad about spending a mere fifty coins.

"The early rice harvest is just around the corner. How can my husband manage all this alone?"

Fang Ling carefully calculated:

"It would be better to save those fifty coins and hire a day laborer."

Jiang Yun nodded and smiled, "This year should have a good harvest."

After saying that, he suddenly took Ling'er's hand and walked towards the market.

"Ling'er, let's go buy some meat!"

Ling'er was pulled by the hand and jogged after Jiang Yun.

The thought of meat prices not being cheap makes my heart ache again.

"It's not a holiday today, why buy meat?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun sighed that he had truly married a good wife who always thought of him.

Today, Ling'er is pregnant.

Buying meat is of course to celebrate, and also to nourish Ling'er's body.

He took Ling'er to the market.

The market is not big.

It was formed by villagers from Qingshan Village and several nearby villages.

Its scale is far smaller than that of the streets in a county town.

However, the market area was later occupied by the landlords.

Villagers who do business here need to pay rent to the landlord.

Jiang Yun rarely goes to the city; he can buy all the daily necessities he needs at this small market.

He went to the pork stall and, despite Ling'er's objections, bought two jin of pork.

One pound of pork costs twenty-four coins.

The total cost was forty-eight coins, almost the price of a dose of pregnancy-preserving medicine.

On the way home carrying pork.

Ling'er was sulking.

She pinched Jiang Yun's waist hard.

They could have saved fifty coins to hire a day laborer.

Before she could even enjoy her happiness for long, Jiang Yun turned around and bought two more pounds of pork.

Really.

I don't know what to say about my husband.

However, she also knew that Jiang Yun was buying meat to nourish her body.

"My lord, do you prefer a boy or a girl?"

Fang Ling placed her left hand on her stomach and asked.

"I like them regardless of gender."

Jiang Yun answered without hesitation.

He has a golden touch, so he needs to vigorously develop his family business.

It's impossible to have only one child.

It's just that Ling'er will have to work hard.

However, even if Jiang Yun wanted to have a child now.

They didn't have the money to support their large family.

We still need to find ways to earn more money.

The most important thing is to get rid of the status of a tenant farmer.

Now there are cheat codes.

Being a tenant farmer forever is not a good thing.

……

a few days later.

Farmers throughout Qingshan Village are rushing to harvest early rice.

If you're too busy, you can hire temporary workers.

A day laborer earns thirty coins during normal times.

During the rush to harvest early rice and plant late rice, the daily wage is 35 coins.

Sometimes it requires working at night.

The employer provides lunch and dinner.

However, Jiang Yun possesses immortal bones.

I work alone at night.

Harvest as much rice as possible without attracting attention.

Therefore, he only provided lunch to the day laborers.

Jiang Yun hired two day laborers.

The harvesting and threshing process took a total of eight days.

Eight days of short-term work, a total of 560 coins in wages.

Including the cost of lunch provided to the day laborers, the total cost was around 800 coins.

It was close to one or two taels of silver.

Over the past few months, Jiang Yun had hidden six taels of silver under the water vat.

After deducting his and Ling'er's daily expenses, as well as the money for hiring temporary workers.

Now only two taels of silver remain.

The money his parents left him was almost gone.

Now all I hope for is the early rice harvest, so I can exchange it for some money to make a living.

late at night.

In the kitchen.

The faint candlelight flickered.

Jiang Yun and Ling'er were not asleep; they were secretly husking the rice.

Because they were tenant farmers, the landlords did not allow the tenants to husk the rice on their own, nor did they allow them to keep husking tools.

Because the rice was not yet dried and there was a lack of tools.

Jiang Yun and Ling'er could only use a wooden pestle to remove the shells.

Every night, the two of them would secretly shed their shells for an hour.

After eight consecutive days, about ten pounds of brown rice were obtained.

In Qingshan Village and the surrounding villages, almost all tenant farmers do this.

Even if it takes time and effort.

At least we can get some brown rice without paying rent.

By candlelight.

Jiang Yun used a wooden pestle to chisel the rice.

The more they dug, the angrier they became.

The more I chisel, the more uncomfortable I feel.

Who could stand living like this?

Those damn landlords are going too far!

Tenants work hard to grow rice for two seasons, and they only get half the rent.

The tenants were not even allowed to dispose of the other half of the harvest themselves.

"Click."

Jiang Yun exerted force on her hand.

Having acquired immortal bones, his strength increased greatly.

He snapped the wooden pestle in two.

Ling'er was startled and asked in a low voice:

"Husband, what... what's wrong?"
