Yezhi squinted her almond-shaped eyes and patted her protruding belly, making a sound, "Clap, clap...!" To her surprise, someone was providing sound effects for her. Looking over, she saw Wolf Child mimicking her, while Xiao Fang also joined in, slapping her own belly and saying, "I'm so full, so full!" Haha, they were all foodies, true kindred spirits!
After arranging their accommodation, Yezhi caught the hygiene-averse Wolf Child to give her a bath. Wolf Child pouted and refused to cooperate, saying, "I just had a wash the day before yesterday; I don't want to!" Yezhi was exasperated. This girl was always out and about, going wherever it was fun. If it weren't for the dry and cold weather, she would have dunked Wolf Child in water without hesitation. "You don't get to decide; you must take a bath today!" Xiao Fang had just informed her that Qiu'en Private Hospital, the most famous hospital on Cabrera Planet, had accepted "Yezhi's" appointment request. If Wolf Child didn't clean up and ended up looking dirty, it would be a disgrace not just for herself but for Earth as well!
Life on Earth was generally good, except for bathing; she really couldn't understand why Sister Ye was so enthusiastic about it. After some forceful scrubbing, Wolf Child was left with a bright red complexion. The two of them lay on the heated bed, with Wolf Child wide awake and staring blankly. Xiao Fang was anxious; Yezhi was anxious; but the oblivious Wolf Child was not worried at all. In the end, after using the "Shockwave Power Gloves" to knock Wolf Child out, Yezhi darkened her face. The entire room's scenery began to shift continuously. Qiu'en Private Hospital appeared as a black rectangular building surrounded by desolate landscapes. Sitting on the bed, Yezhi felt an eerie chill.
Xiao Fang handed over the appointment number card. Only after passing through eight armed guards were they allowed in. Soon after, they were teleported into a spacious room filled with countless lasers scanning in fan shapes.
In the distance, a black square table held A Lump, which looked very familiar to Yezhi. "A Lump!"
"Ha ha~! Miss Leaf, are you calling me?" Yezhi never imagined that this pile not only sang well but was also an elite from the Bodria Star System.
"Miss Leaf, what seems to be the problem?" Yezhi pointed at the unconscious Wolf Child. "It's my sister who's sick; she had her spleen removed." With his big eyes, A Lump examined her carefully. "Her bodily functions are quite vigorous; regeneration is possible."
"Miss Leaf, we need your sister's blood; we can have it ready in two weeks!" As he scanned Wolf Child's entire body with surrounding laser beams, his two short arms waved in the air. Countless images of Wolf Child and her organs gradually appeared in the room.
Yezhi leaned closer to Xiao Fang. The hospital felt strange; even the treatment methods seemed mysterious. After saving the scan results, A Lump sat down to write a prescription. "Miss Leaf, although your sister's health is good, there are too many toxins in her body and an acid-base imbalance. For these two weeks, she should take my detoxifying medicine and eat more vegetables." Yezhi nodded vigorously; this matter could not be taken lightly.
After noting down the delivery address, A Lump handed over a bill: "240 million." Yezhi felt dizzy from shock. "Miss Leaf, we've known each other for a long time; I'll give you a 20% discount." A Lump was quite generous but still too expensive for her to afford. Now she regretted not managing "Earth's Rarity" business better; money always seemed insufficient when needed!
"Doctor, I don't have that much money!" Being poor made her voice lack confidence.
"Miss Leaf, we can arrange installment payments!" Yezhi sighed in relief as they settled on 192 million total over five years in five installments.
"Miss Leaf, can we add each other as friends on Social Network?" A Lump asked shyly. Knowing an elite doctor could be beneficial; how could she refuse? After adding each other as friends, Yezhi casually asked, "A Lump, what's your name? Now that we're friends, I should know."
"My name is Bidefo! Beautiful!" Yezhi giggled quietly! "A Lump, I have a friend who has stomach cancer; do you have any way to treat it?"
At once, A Lump's big eyes lit up with excitement. "Where!" Cases of cancer were extremely rare in the Bodria Star System. For every ambitious doctor, it represented a dream opportunity.
"Bidefo, don't get too excited; my friend is of course on Earth!"
"Bidefo" deflated at that news—no surgery possible—but then exclaimed, "Miss Leaf~!"
"What's with the 'Miss'? That's too formal, my friends just call me Yezi!"
"Yezi, I want to see the patient!" Bidefo tightly grasped Yezi's hand, her big eyes filled with anticipation. Yezi nodded, "I need to arrange things, let's connect online!"
"Bidefo, please report to the operating room, Bidefo, please report to the operating room!" Seeing Bidefo busy, Yezi waved goodbye to her. Xiao Fang teleported with her and Wolf Child to the hospital entrance, and then the entire room's scenery kept changing.
"Xiao Fang, I'm in debt again! What should I do? It's freezing cold lately; what rare items can we sell?" Xiao Fang also looked troubled. The two of them thought of everything they could sell for money. "Master, we can sell folk songs!"
"Right! We can also sell pencils!"
"Master, if you attend the Cabrala Star's Annual Welcome Star award ceremony, there's an 8 million appearance fee!" Receiving the invitation was expected. She initially planned not to go, but for the sake of making money, she decided to go for it. "Xiao Fang, reply that I will go!"
...
"Sister Luo, good morning!"
While others were still asleep, Luo Fengjuan shyly rubbed her hands together. "Hmm~ Yezi, good morning!" She brought out the steamed eggs and rice cakes from the pot. "Sister Luo, have some breakfast!"
"Yezi, where's Xiao Fan?" Luo Fengjuan took a bite of the sweet and delicious rice cake. Didn't that child say not to run around and that he would come home today?
"Xiao Fan told me this morning that you wanted to take him home because he wanted to say goodbye to his friends," Yezi sat across from Luo Fengjuan. "Sister Luo, I like to be straightforward. If you really want to take Xiao Fan home, has Elder Brother Yu recovered and been discharged?"
Luo Fengjuan thought of her husband who looked sickly and emaciated; tears rolled down into her bowl. Yezi felt that being able to cry was a good thing.
"Sister Luo, Elder Brother Yu's illness is serious! Since Xiao Fan is happy here with us, how about letting him stay a while longer? If he wants to go home, I can send him back anytime."
"Yezi, no! That would be too much trouble for you!" Luo Fengjuan couldn't manage taking care of Xiao Fan herself but... she also didn't want to keep bothering others.
"Sister Luo, everyone in this world has to trouble others at some point; I'm just the big troublemaker in our village..."
"You've got some self-awareness!" Barefoot Aunt and Madwoman stood at the door laughing. Yezi chuckled awkwardly. "Sister Luo, this is our village's miracle doctor." Barefoot Aunt playfully tapped Yezi on the forehead while Madwoman laughed and clapped at Yezi being teased.
"Don't listen to her nonsense; you're Xiaofan's mother, right? Yezi told me about your husband's illness; now you need to talk to me properly..." Luo Fengjuan looked at Yezi with gratitude; what she needed most now was someone to guide her.
Yezi led Madwoman into the kitchen and pulled out some rice cakes for Madwoman to enjoy while also feeding her a Nutrient pill. Then she took out an Indestructible spray and used it thoroughly. She thought that when the weather warmed up, she would take Madwoman to the county hospital for a check-up.
After listening to Barefoot Aunt's words, Luo Fengjuan found her direction. Yezhi pushed the returned blue bundle to her, and this time, Luo Fengjuan did not refuse. She owed Yezhi a debt of gratitude and felt that repaying it could wait; the most important thing now was her husband's life. Xiaofan felt both happy and sad about being able to stay. "What should I do? Xiaofan doesn't want to leave, but really misses Dad and Mom."
Luo Fengjuan squatted down. "Xiaofan will stay at Sister Yezi's house and must be obedient. Dad and Mom will come to pick you up!" Xiaofan nodded obediently as she bid farewell to Luo Fengjuan.
That evening, Village Uncle and Aunt Ren Er came running to her house, arguing. "Yezhi, we can't sell the ducks! Once spring comes, they'll start laying eggs, and if we sell them now, we'll lose out big time!" Aunt Ren Er made a valid point, while Village Uncle remained silent, staring at Yezhi, waiting for her decision. Yezhi pouted, "Alright, Aunt Ren Er, we won't sell the ducks!" Aunt Ren Er smiled broadly. "Yezhi, you should come visit our Duck House sometime. They're all grown into big ducks now!" Yezhi listened with a smile.
"Yezhi, make sure to use that new wooden basket for catching fish!" The day after tomorrow, Zhou Village Head would take the village's strong young men to the Commune to sell fish. Although the plan had been set early on, he still felt a bit uneasy.
"Village Uncle, don't worry; it'll be fine!" Yezhi had already bought a bottle of Reactive Oxygen Species from Cosmic Mall Website. "Comfort Water Molecule," Xiao Fang said that Reactive Oxygen Species would give the fish strong vitality. The Comfort Water Molecule would prevent the water from freezing and maintain the temperature that the fish preferred.
The next day, Yezhi brought Wolf Child, Xiaofan, Black Treasure, and Niu Niu to a snow-white rice field. The village's strong young men were braving the cold to catch fish. Wolf Child, Black Treasure, and Niu Niu—who was lying on Black Treasure's round head—all ran over excitedly to join in catching fish. However, Yezhi felt guilty towards everyone; it was her insistence on selling fish before the Spring Festival that led them here. If there was no Spring Festival economy at this moment, she would surely cry.
In 1981, there really wasn't much of a Spring Festival economy. During this time of material scarcity, even eating a live fish in Guangzhou was difficult. Zhou Village Head and the others braved the severe cold to engage in selling fish at a busy intersection.
Yezhi anxiously waited at home for Village Uncle and the others to return. Just before noon, Xiao Fang reported that Village Uncle had come back. Yezhi rushed out of her house and ran towards the village entrance.
At the village entrance stood many villagers who had come upon hearing the news. Village Uncle seemed to float down from the clouds as he approached Yezhi excitedly and exclaimed, "Yezhi, we sold all our fish! Not a single one left!"
"Look! Look!" Village Uncle patted his heavy green backpack and then patted Old Accountant's green backpack.
The villagers watched as their village head beamed with joy while looking at the heavy backpacks; their hearts filled with happiness. Everyone then surged towards Team and crowded into the classroom to count stacks of cash. By the end of it all, Old Accountant himself couldn't believe what he reported: "4568 yuan!" In front of everyone’s eyes, Xiao Cheng helped count again just to confirm; indeed it was correct!
