Chapter 132: Chapter 134: Exchange One Hospital for Two


    The words Zhang Xiangcao wanted to say got stuck in her throat as she waited for Tang Yuxin’s decision.


    “My father also suggested that I drink some, perhaps I might be able to be fair?” She touched her face, even though she no longer harbored much hope for bing fair. After all, she had been dark-skinned all her life, and she hade to terms with it.


    “Alright, fine,” Zhang Xiangcao was at a loss for words. It’s not like she could say that even if she drank it, she wouldn’t be fair. Although that was the truth.


    She was well aware of how much Tang Zhinian cherished his daughter; she hugged her own child, Sisi, tighter. She thought, ‘Tang Zhijun would be the same, right? He would also treat Sisi well, wouldn’t he?’


    Sisi still had a look of confusion on her face, but she was extremely curious about the littlemb, clenching her small fists and swinging them around from time to time, and her little mouth was frequently breaking into giggles.


    And Tang Yuxin now had an additional task, which was to shepherd themb. Every day after school, she would lead themb to the back hills where there was plenty of wild grass for it to eat. Since there was only onemb, she would study while watching it graze.


    As for the taste of themb’s milk, it was quite ordinary.


    Tang Yuxin didn’t understand how Sisi was able to drink it, how the little girl drank it every day and even looked forward to it. As for herself, every day she felt like throwing up from it.


    She led the well-fedmb back home. As they passed by the entrance to the vige, she saw that the walls of their courtyard were already quite high.


    Counting the days, it was about time to hear the news about the road construction. Building the wall like this was just right.<div>


    She continued with her routine life, without thinking about any get-rich-quick schemes. She didn’t remember the lottery numbers, didn’t have much of a business mind, so it was impossible for her family to suddenly be millionaires.


    One step at a time, steadily moving forward.


    She wouldn’tg behind others anyway.


    She was no different.


    Three dayster, when it was time for Tang Zhijun’s house to be built, the county sent people saying they shouldn’t build it because they were nning to construct a road there. Both the homesteads of Tang Zhinian and Tang Zhijun had been requisitioned.


    Of course, topensate them, the government would pay to build two small two-story buildings for them on both sides of the road.


    This certainly sounded great; in exchange for half of their courtyard, they got two in return. Although it was a bit bothersome, it was something everybody would ept.


    Both brothers agreed without hesitation. Such good luck would not strike every household. Essentially, without shedding much money, they had gotten houses on both their homesteads.


    Originally, Tang Zhijun only nned to build one house for his little brother. Later, when he would have money, he intended to build another for himself. He didn’t mind living in the old house with his daughter in the meantime.


    But now, things had taken a favorable turn. He could build houses on both courtyards at once.


    Building a house was a major event in a rural person’s life. The vigers said, ‘The luck of the Tang brothers was amazing! How did this good fortune strike them? This was akin to a pie falling from the sky!’ Many people started nurturing business prospects, wanting to build houses by the roadside, foreseeing its future importance.


    Instantly, those barrennds were in high demand, transforming from being ignored to extremely sought after.


    At first, Tang Zhinian was worried about the isted location of thend, unattractive from both vige and market perspectives. But now, it seemed like he had been overly worried. That area was going to be the best location in the vige soon; the most important thing was, once the road was constructed, it would be much more convenient for the children to go to school.


    By the time Yuxin was to go to junior high, the road would just be ready. It would be smooth and easy to traverse. Formerly, a bicycle ride used to take more than half an hour; once the road waspleted, they could simply walk.
