After evicting Feng Tu's family, only the Jin family's butcher shop remained in Xing Tian village. Jin Weiwei hugged Feng Tu's silver as she hummed a small tune and returned home.
Who knew that as soon as he entered the house, he would be surrounded by little rich kids.
"What are you doing?" Jin Weiwei hugged the silver taels tightly, looking at little Fugui with a vigilant expression.
"Medicine? Where did you get it from?"
"It's said that he's inherited it from our ancestors!" Jin Weiwei shot him a glare. This little rich kid actually dared to block her in the room. His guts were really growing.
He saw the little rich kid turn around without a word and bring out a bowl from the kitchen.
Jin Weiwei took a look. This was the bowl that she had mashed the herbs into juice. He was in a hurry, so he didn't manage to clean it in time. There were still some scraps left inside. Who would have thought that this little rich guy would catch him. This fellow looked foolish, but in reality, he was paying attention to everything.
"What grass is this?" the little rich kid asked as he held the bowl up to Jin Weiwei's nose.
How could she know what grass this was? He had just randomly grabbed a few handfuls inside the magical door.
Seeing that Jin Weiwei didn't answer, little Fugui continued to ask, "Where did the grass come from?"
"Isn't it just growing in the northwest corner of the backyard? It's just some weeds, I'm just messing around with them." Jin Weiwei laughed and tried to get away with it.
"Not in the backyard, not even in the courtyard." Little Fugui replied with a resolute and decisive tone.
Ever since he came here on the first day, he had explored all the environments in this house. These past few days, there was not a single stone in this house, nor was there a single blade of grass.
"Aiyaya, it's just some broken grass, why are you asking me so clearly?" "Ah, I have to ask you. Last time, you said that asking Doctor Jia for a doctor's fee was not enough, and you begged him to come. Why did he give me five taels of silver today?" "Speak, where did you get the silver from?"
The little rich kid turned his head and stopped talking.
Aiyo, it seems like he was hiding something from her. This won't do. This little rich kid who ate and drank with her is naturally hers. How could her people hide anything from her?
Jin Weiwei immediately pulled off the little rich kid's face, "Quickly tell me, where did the money come from?"
The two of them looked straight at each other, causing little rich and noble son to feel a bit uncomfortable. He lowered his eyes and said, "I borrowed it."
Borrowing? What nonsense! Other than himself, how could this little rich kid know anyone else from Xingtian Village.
From the looks of it, he did not want to say it.
Jin Weiwei curled her lips. She wanted to ask him more, but when she saw that he was still studying the medicine in his hand, she was worried that he would ask her more. Forget it, since they were hiding it from each other, there was no point in continuing to talk about it, so she quickly said that she was tired and wanted to rest.

Although the Feng Tu couple's mind was not right, they had their own way of doing business. They had accumulated quite a bit of money by opening a butcher's shop over the years. Although Jin Weiwei only got a third of the share, it wasn't a small amount.
In order to realize her dream of strengthening the Jin family's butcher shop, she gritted her teeth, took out all the money, and put it into the small room next to her own butcher's shop.
But it was easy to remember, and hard to do. The room could be bought with money, but who was going to break through the wall? In order to save money, Jin Weiwei naturally chose to rely on herself.
"Come on, come on, smash here! Use all your strength!" Jin Weiwei ordered the little rich kid to smash the wall.
Peng, peng.
Bang, twice.
The wall was only slightly cracked.
"Why are you so useless, open it, I'll do it!"
Jin Weiwei spat in her hands and snatched the sledgehammer away. She was about to smash it, but she didn't expect her feet to slip and her hands to relax. Coincidentally, the hammer hit her left foot, causing her to cry out in pain.
"Aiya, mother, it hurts!" Jin Weiwei picked up her left foot and jumped on one foot. Her body tilted and she lost her balance.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Fugui hurriedly reached out to hug her, lifting her off the ground.
In the next second, she discovered that she had fallen into the arms of little rich kids.
Time seemed to stop here.
Plop, plop, plop …
Jin Weiwei didn't know if this was the sound of her own heart beating, or the sound of the heart beating of a rich child.
Was this the legendary hug of a princess? Jin Weiwei felt a bit of hidden joy in her heart. It had to be known that both she and the original owner had never experienced this before, but this princess' hug was exactly the kind of action that would cause a young girl's heart to beat wildly whenever she thought about it.
At this moment, she was actually being carried by his princess.
He stuck close to little Fugui's firm chest and felt his warm body temperature. Suddenly, Jin Weiwei's entire face began to burn.
"Why are you so careless?"
The slightly reproachful tone made Jin Weiwei instantly sober up.
"Accident, this was only an accident …" Jin Weiwei pouted, struggling to get down.
"Don't move!" Not only did little Fugui not put her down obediently, he even carried her all the way from the butcher's shop at the east end of the village back to her home.
Fortunately, they didn't meet anyone along the way. Otherwise, Jin Weiwei would have been embarrassed to death.
He carried Jin Weiwei into the room and put her on the bed. Then, he carefully helped her take off her shoes and socks. At this time, her left thumb was already swollen and blue.
"I'll go get Doctor Jia." Xiao Fugui said as he prepared to leave.
"Come back here!" Jin Weiwei hurriedly shouted, "It's just a hammer strike, how could I bother Doctor Jia with such a small injury. I'll personally cool down. After a few days of rest, the swelling will naturally disappear."
Xiao Fugui frowned, disbelief written all over his face.
"Really, I'm not some young miss of a rich family, so I can't stand the torments anymore. Look at me, it's so strong, it's really alright, I know what I'm doing. " Jin Weiwei raised her arm and made a muscular gesture.
Little Fugui could do nothing about it, he could only do as she said and help her apply the ice for a while. When something happened to her, he stopped going to the butcher's, closed the door, and concentrated on taking care of her at home.
In the middle of the night, Jin Weiwei began to feel pain and swelling in her toes. It was unbearable.
Then she remembered that there should have been more of the herbs that she had pulled out of the magical door, so she limped into the kitchen, where she took out the herbs she had hidden, crushed them gently, and applied them to the wound.
She originally thought that she would be like Second Fool Wang last time, immediately having an effect to stop the pain and reduce the swelling, but it seemed that she was wrong this time.
Until the morning of the next day, the herbs did not have any effect. Her toes were still swollen like a steamed bun and she was still in so much pain that she had to grimace.
Why is that? Why did this divine plant suddenly lose all of its potency and become just like ordinary grass?
Could it be that the divine grass wasn't as all-purpose as he had thought? Or was it that it had to be effective against all kinds of diseases?
Or could it be that this divine plant had a temporal effect, losing its miraculous healing ability after leaving the magical gate for a long time?
In other words, the divine grass would 'expire'?
