Chapter 525: Helping Each Other
Seeing Aunt Lin so sad, Xie Pinghuai felt uneasy.
“I’m not lying to you! Who’s lying to you? Isn’t it just a martial arts master? Fine, we’ll hire one, but it’s too expensive. I don’t want to spend Eldest Brother’s money. Your family is so poor. It’s too expensive to hire a martial arts master!” Xie Pinghuai said shamelessly.
If they were poor, then there was nothing they could do, right?
“As long as you are studious, I will hire one for you even if I have to exhaust my family’s wealth. Don’t worry about money.” Aunt Lin was overjoyed when she heard that.
Hiring a martial arts master was indeed expensive, but would she not be able to think of a way?
She knew how to deliver babies, and her methods were quite good. She heard that the wealthy families in the capital pay a lot of money. She put in more effort to see if she could get business from the wealthy families. As long as the mother was healthy and the child was delivered, the money would naturally come.
The Lin family had initially planned to stay in the capital for a month. However, now that they were spending time with the two children, they could not bear to leave.
Grandpa Lin was skilled in medicine. Now that he was traveling through the streets every day as a doctor, he wanted to save money for two years and open a small medicine shop.
The other two sons-in-law of the Lin family were also hard working people.
As long as there were no pests in the house, they would not have to worry about living a hard life. Sooner or later, they would become popular.
How would Xie Qiao dare to let the Lin family bear Xie Pinghuai’s expenses?
After thinking for a moment, she was about to speak when Lin Yaxiang looked at her. She smiled and said, “Young Lady, I know that you are kind-hearted. It’s just that my family’s status is very different from your family’s. If you often help me, my family won’t have enough confidence. In the future, even if we come and go, we can only look up to others. It’s not what we want.
“Both families should be equal. Now that we are short of money, we will think of our own ways. This way, in the future, when it comes to matters involving the two children, we will have the right to speak up, right?” Lin Yaxiang added.
The Lin family could not send the children to the Royal Academy like the Xie family did.
However, it was not impossible for them to hire a martial arts master.
“You are right.” Xie Qiao nodded. “However, since we’re family, it’s only right for us to take care of each other. Earlier on, my Eldest Brother received the Emperor’s reward, so he has more gold and silver in his hands. If he keeps the money, he and my Father will run out of it sooner or later. Therefore, we’re going to buy some shops and rent them out with the money.”
Lin Yaxiang looked at Xie Qiao, not quite understanding what she meant.
“It’s the same for anyone who rents the shops. However, Grandpa Lin’s medical skills are excellent, and he has two uncles to help him. It’s better to open a medicine shop directly. My shop’s location is quite good, and there are many residential houses around it. It would be best if we open a medicine shop,” Xie Qiao added.
Since they were renting, the Lin family would have to pay.
Moreover, the rent would not be too little.
Lin Yaxiang was a little hesitant. “Thank you, Young Lady. It’s just that we don’t have that much money to rent a shop right now.”
“You’ll sign the contract and start renting at the beginning of the year for the first three years. You’ll pay the rent at the end of the year. What do you think?” Xie Qiao asked.
In this way, as long as the business of this medicine shop was good and there were no major issues, they would definitely be able to pay the rent at the end of the year. It was equivalent to giving the shop to them for free in advance.
Lin Yaxiang blushed.
It was indeed a good opportunity, but she thought it would be terrible if she accepted the kindness of the Xie family.
Lin Yaxiang still shook her head. “Thank you, Young Lady. I know that you have good intentions, but regarding the money… I will think of a way. If I earn enough rent, we’ll talk about it. I will have to trouble you when that time comes.”
Lin Yaxiang was very polite.
Although she was an elder, she knew that Xie Qiao was the first wife’s daughter. It was a courtesy for Xie Qiao to call her aunt. She could not really treat herself as an elder.
