Yang Dong still didn’t mention giving silver directly to Yang Xiaocui, but instead said he’d help her buy medicine in town.

Yang Xiaocui wanted to press the issue, but she didn’t dare. She was afraid Yang Dong would get suspicious. If she insisted on taking silver instead of medicine, Yang Dong would definitely think too much about it.

Since he wanted to buy medicine, just let him buy it then. Anyway, the medicine is worth quite a bit of silver. At that time, she can exchange it for silver, or she can let Yang Daniu exchange it himself.

So she nodded and agreed, "Alright, then please help me buy the medicine. Don’t worry, however much it costs, I will definitely repay you once I earn some silver."

Yang Xiaocui made the promise, even though she had no way of earning silver. Her needlework wasn’t good enough; she couldn’t even get into the Yang Family’s workshop. She could only help out with chores at home. But she still had to say it, whether or not she repaid him didn’t matter much, since she was going to marry over later anyway.

Yang Dong originally didn’t expect her to pay him back. He knew she couldn’t afford it. Besides, the silver was meant to help treat Yang Xiaocui’s illness. If Yang Xiaocui recovered, it would benefit him in the future too, after all, she’s the girl who’s going to marry him. So, he didn’t mind so much and said, "No need."

Yang Dong said no need, which made Yang Xiaocui very happy, but she still showed her determination, "I must repay the silver. If I can’t repay it, don’t worry, once I marry into your family, I’ll make up for it by working hard."

Yang Dong didn’t continue the topic, but said, "Let’s go then, I’ll head to town to get the medicine for you now."

Yang Dong walked ahead, with Yang Xiaocui following behind, suddenly reminding herself of what Yang’s old dad said, so she spoke up, "Your dad just told me to go over."

Yang Dong was a bit puzzled, what could his dad want with Yang Xiaocui?

But he still went along with her.

At the fish pond, Yang’s old dad had been paying attention to his son’s situation there. He also saw the two youngsters holding onto each other, considering that the fourth was someone who had plans, he didn’t ask much more. The reason he called Yang Xiaocui over was that it was her first time visiting the fish pond and he didn’t want her to leave empty-handed.

Besides, the fish and ducks in their family had grown up well, and giving some to the in-laws was also a matter of courtesy.

That’s why he called Yang Xiaocui.

Seeing the two of them approaching, he handed the fish and ducks he had just prepared over to Yang Dong, "Fourth, these are for Yang Xiaocui’s family. You take them along and escort Yang Xiaocui home."

Yang Dong accepted the fish and ducks, nodded, and then left with Yang Xiaocui.

Yang Xiaocui was exceedingly surprised. She hadn’t expected Yang’s old dad to give her fish and ducks, but this was even better. Now she had something to say to Yang Dabao, and her mother wouldn’t suspect her actions in the past few days. She quickly expressed her thanks and left with Yang Dong, "Thank you, Uncle Yang."

In her heart, though, she was delighted. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that pretending to faint was the right move. If she hadn’t pretended to faint, how could she have such good days now?

She figured that once she married over, there would be many more good days. She already couldn’t wait to get married. She just hated that she was too young, not even fifteen yet. But there weren’t many days left; soon she would be fifteen.

Thinking about Yang Dong’s third sister-in-law, who married into the Yang family at fifteen, would she also be able to marry into the Yang family once she turned fifteen?

She really didn’t want to live such hard days anymore. She wanted to marry over as soon as possible.

At this moment, Yang Dong still didn’t know that Yang Xiaocui was scheming in her heart how she could marry into their family sooner.
