Chapter 303: Chapter 303: Silver

Tian Chunmei brought two girls to the Gu Family, almost scared away by the smell here and the corpses lying in the yard. But the silver in her arms gave her courage, she held onto the two girls, closely following Fan Meilin, trying not to look or ask.

Seeing the members of the Gu Family scattered across the yard, they quickly stepped over them, but upon seeing Fan Meibao’s tragic state, they all gasped.

Blood soaked the clothes on the upper body, while the lower body was a filthy mess...

"Hurry up, you guys quickly carry the person away, I’ll get a clean set of clothes for my sister."

Yu Daya gave a disdainful look, even though they were real sisters, she expressed obvious disgust.

However, they understood the principle of taking money and relieving trouble, they endured the unpleasant smell, and the two sisters carried the person away, one from the head and the other from the tail.

Tian Chunmei smelt the odor here, her eyes wandered, she also knew who was in charge of this family, soon she noticed Gu Baijiang huddled near the fire, "Hey, do you need any help cleaning up here?"

These words were like heavenly music, especially for Xu Yulan and Liu Yun, who nodded repeatedly, "We would really appreciate it..."

"But I can’t work for free, I can help you get the room cleaned, how much silver are you prepared to give me?"

Fan Meilin was generous earlier, it’s more than what their family earns in a year. If they could earn another sum, they could buy two acres of thin land and have enough food to eat.

"We will give you one liang of silver," Liu Yun thought he was already very generous, but who knew Tian Chunmei would just turn and leave.

"Two liang of silver..."

Seeing her footsteps didn’t stop, they could only shout loudly, "How much silver do you want to help?"

"Nothing less than five liang of silver, for these people at the doorway, I can also have my husband help carry them a bit farther."

"Give you five liang of silver, and you find a place to bury them." Gu Baijiang just wanted to quickly resume a peaceful life now and agreed directly.

"With so many people, it would take a huge pit to bury them," Tian Chunmei shook her head, "This silver is only enough for me to help clean the room, you see the stench inside, if it’s not cleaned, you won’t be able to sleep at night."

"And for these people, you should report to the authorities, after all, there’re dead people."

Tian Chunmei had no problem doing heavy and dirty work, but she was scared too, after all, these were several human lives, lest she be considered an accomplice.

"Do you believe I can find anyone in the village who would do it for one liang of silver?"

Tian Chunmei just laughed, "Easier said than done, go find them now and see if anyone dares come close to you.

My family is just too poor, otherwise, I’d stay far away from you to avoid being implicated."

The members of the Gu Family thought about how no villagers seemed to ask about it since last night, except for the village head.

Right, the village head? They could seek help from the village head.

"We can go find the village head," Gu Kaichen stood up and wanted to walk out, but he ran towards the restroom after taking a few steps.

"Forget it, give it to you," Gu Baijiang didn’t have confidence either, after all, these lowlifes were most afraid of death and might not dare come.

He directly threw her a silver ingot, "Make sure to clean thoroughly inside and out, or double it back."

Seeing the large silver ingot in hand, Tian Chunmei smiled brightly, "It’s certain, I will clean and tidy it up for you."

Saying this, she turned to leave, Liu Yun quickly called her, "Where are you going?"

"I’m going back to get tools, don’t worry, I will dig out a layer of the floor in your room, there’ll be no trace at all."

...

The news of the Gu Family returning quickly reached Bai Suihe, who was disturbed by these people last night, only got to sleep after dawn, and just woke up.

"Are they alright?" Bai Suihe listened to Nanny Pang explain the effects of that medicine last night and became very interested in pharmacy.

"They’re fine, they won’t die," Nanny Pang brought in the specially prepared food for pregnant women, which was cooked according to Bai Suihe’s physique.

"Let’s not talk about them for now, let’s eat first," Nanny Pang set the dishes, "These are specially made by this old servant, see if they suit your taste."

Bai Suihe took the bowl and chopsticks, as soon as she tasted the food, her eyes lit up, "Nanny, this is so delicious."

Nanny Pang was simply a treasure, skilled in medicine and pharmacy, her cooking was so superb, absolutely perfect.

"As long as Miss likes it," Nanny Pang saw Bai Suihe eating nonstop and helped serve more food.

After Bai Suihe put down the bowl and chopsticks, she supported her while walking in the yard.

"It’s not snowing anymore," Bai Suihe looked at the sky, "I thought it would snow for several days."

"No, in Lingnan, such weather is rarely seen, one or two times a year is quite enough.

But here the rain is plentiful, sometimes it rains continually for over a month, once Kai Chun passes, all kinds of snakes, insects, rats, that’s the real disaster." Nanny Pang started to explain the climate here, trying to make Bai Suihe forget the Gu Family.

She knew this matter couldn’t be delayed much longer, but disgusting things are better dragged on if possible.

Sure enough, after walking around several times, back in the room, Bai Suihe asked about the Gu Family.

Nanny Pang surely knew she was more curious about the effect of that medicine, Lin Wei had secretly gone to town following it and vividly told the story, Nanny Pang just retold it, trying to omit some parts, but even this was enough to disgust Bai Suihe.

"Nanny, besides this medicine, do we have any other interesting medicines? I’d like to learn, is that okay?"

"I do have some harmless medicines, but you’ll have to wait until you finish your confinement." Nanny Pang was very firm on this point.

"But learning pharmacy is tedious and hard work..."

Bai Suihe was very interested in it now and was quite confident, even passing the difficult college entrance examination, why fear this?

"Don’t worry, Nanny, I will persist, if I can’t, I shall never ask for anything else in the future.

I also admire your abilities, I rely on you to teach me everything."

Bai Suihe finished and bowed earnestly, "Nanny, I want to take you as my teacher."

Nanny Pang quickly helped her up, "Miss, this old servant does not dare accept such great courtesy, Madam’s great kindness cannot be repaid in this life, teaching Miss a few things means my skill hasn’t gone to waste.

Miss, don’t mention apprenticeship, it would be a slap to my face."

Bai Suihe didn’t manage to convince Nanny Pang and didn’t linger on the student-teacher title, earnestly promised, "Nanny, since you refuse to let me apprentice, then I will support you later, is that alright?"

Nanny Pang’s eyes showed a bit of emotion, though Madam wouldn’t mistreat her, Miss’s words clearly moved her more.
