Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Aunt Zhang asked hesitantly, “Gu Zi, isn’t it too extravagant to use this for Shi Tou? Shouldn’t we just use some saltwater instead? ” As she spoke, she rolled her eyes at Shi Tou, blaming him for his gluttony and causing trouble.

Su Shen brought over the burn ointment. It was a small tube, just long enough to match an adult’s index finger and as thick as a thumb. It was clearly a precious item. Aunt Zhang felt even more embarrassed, but she couldn’t bring herself to refuse it for her grandson. Deep down, she wanted him to benefit from this excellent medicine.

Gu Zi pulled Shi Tou over, took the ointment from Su Shen, opened it, and punctured the seal with the cap. She squeezed out the bright yellow ointment, carefully applying it to Shi Tou’s wound while speaking to Aunt Zhang, “Is any medicine too expensive when it comes to someone’s well-being? I have it here specifically for Shi Tou. If I didn’t, then we would indeed have to resort to saltwater.” fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

“Aunt Zhang, you’re not being fair. You clearly care about him so much, but you speak as if he’s not important. Love needs to be expressed positively. Do you want Shi Tou to show his care for you in such a negative way?”

Gu Zi said this, but she understood Aunt Zhang’s mentality. Many women living in this era share similar sentiments. They might sound harsh to their loved ones, but they genuinely care about them.

People like them often find themselves in a state of irritation, perhaps due to the overwhelming household chores and lack of help. When constantly busy, their words often don’t match their hearts.

Furthermore, Aunt Zhang was a straightforward person. She didn’t beat around the bush and often spoke bluntly, sometimes to the point of discomfort. But her intentions were not so. She cared for her grandson but also feared causing trouble for others, hence her behavior.

As the ointment was applied to Shi Tou’s little hand, he finally stopped whimpering. He looked at Gu Zi in surprise and said, “Fairy Sister, it’s cold and doesn’t hurt anymore! Grandma, don’t worry. I won’t treat you like this. Let’s eat roasted sweet potatoes together. I’m so hungry!”

Initially, when Gu Zi said she wanted to help her family open a store, Su Shen suggested opening it directly in the city, with him handling the financial aspect.

Although he had never run a store, he believed the principles of doing business were the same.

Pig farms and other supply businesses were best located in rural areas, but businesses that dealt directly with end customers, like grocery stores and restaurants, needed to be in economically prosperous areas with high foot traffic, and the city was the best place for that.

However, Gu Zi rejected his suggestion and his additional financial help. He didn’t want to make her uncomfortable by interfering too much, so he didn’t bring it up again. He let Gu Zi open the store, thinking he would step in if she encountered difficulties.

But to his surprise, she didn’t give him a chance to step in. The store was already featured in the newspaper. Considering the number of stores in the city, not every one of them could make it to the newspaper. This showed how outstanding his wife was, and he felt proud of her.
