Yang Yongjin said, "Third brother, if you can think that way, then you are right."

>

“Although I only glanced at her yesterday and spoke to her for no more than three sentences, Second Brother also feels that Miss Liu is a good person.”

"Just by looking at Brother Damao's character, you can guess what his sister is like."

"If you're really going to give Liu'er a chance, and give yourself a chance too, second brother supports you."

"Don't worry about the money for the wedding when the time comes, second brother will figure something out!"

Yang Yongjin said again.

As an elder brother, I know exactly how much money my younger brother has.

All the previous money was in Chen Jinhong's hands, and the third brother was just someone who could only mouth words. He was the kind of person who worked tirelessly.

After leaving Chen Jinhong, Qian didn't ask her for a single copper coin. He simply left alone and went to Qianyuan County.

When he left, he changed into two sets of clothes, shoes and socks. Sister Eight found his brother's clothes to pad him first.

"Second brother, if I get married, I'll still have a bit of money." Yang Yongzhi suddenly spoke up, interrupting Yang Yongjin's thoughts.

"Where did you get the money?" Yang Yongjin asked in surprise.

Yang Yongzhi smiled and said, "I've been working at a tavern in the county for the past two months. The tavern provides food and lodging, so for two months' work plus some festival bonuses from before, I've saved over two ounces of silver."

Yang Yongjin's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Although we are both runners in restaurants, the pay in the county is a bit higher than here in the town. Qing'er gets along well with the manager at the restaurant and receives bonuses during festivals.

"If you keep it up like this, by the end of the year, you'll have six ounces of silver – guaranteed!" he said.

Yang Yongzhi nodded.

“I originally planned to wait until I had saved five taels of silver before repaying some of your debt, Second Brother.”

"Now I have to prepare for my wedding, this debt can only be put off for later..."

Yang Yongzhi's face was full of guilt, "I'll go back to Er Sao and tell her personally..."

Yang Yongjin smiled and patted Yang Yongzhi's shoulder.

"My and your second sister-in-law's wish is that you marry a virtuous woman to live with, take care of our mother and grandparents together with us, manage the household, and raise good children."

“As for debts, no need to rush, take it slow!” he said. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

Yang Yongzhi nodded gratefully, "Second brother, thank you!"

"Haha, we're brothers, what's the point of all that formality? Don't be so distant!" Yang Yongjin said.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Alright, let's not talk about that for now. I already prepared the gifts last night. Come here and take a look, see if anything is missing, and we'll add it up!"

Yang Yongjin said that he took Yang Yongzhi to the next room and showed him something.

Yang Yongzhi looked at one by one, each case the same.

>

Thirty catties of rice, thirty catties of wheat flour, a full basket of eggs.

There are two pairs of chopsticks, shaped like carp, and they are being raised in clean water.

A hen clucking and with its wings tied, one.

Next, there are some snacks and small bites.

"How's it going? With so much food, this should keep Big Brother Mao and the others going for half a month, right?" Yang Yongjin asked.

Yang Yongzhi nodded repeatedly: "That's enough."

"For some time now, Liu'er has been ill. Big Mao Ge needs to take care of her and doesn't have time to go to the dock to unload cargo and make money."

"Going to the doctor, taking medicine, eating, drinking, and using the toilet—I guess it's all just consuming one's savings," said Yang Yongzhi.

"I know Da Mao Ge's family situation well. If he had enough money, he wouldn't live in such a dilapidated place." He continued.

Yang Yongjin nodded and said, "No rush, one step at a time. As long as you are willing to work hard and think of ways, life will always get better."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

After breakfast, Yang Yongzhi and Lao Yangtou set off together. The grandfather and grandson rode in a horse-drawn carriage to Damo's house.

>Big Mao's house.

Because Old Yang and his group said they would come back today when they left yesterday.

So, early in the morning, Liu’er woke up, combed her hair, changed into a clean set of clothes, picked up a broom and rag, ready to tidy up the house.

>>>Big Mao came in from outside and immediately rushed over to stop her: "Sister, your body hasn't fully recovered, you can't tire yourself out. Come on, go back to bed."

Liu'er smiled and shook her head: "Brother, I can't rest. I've been sick for so long, the house is in a mess like a pigsty."

"When Lao Yang's family arrives later, it'll be so embarrassing. And this kind of hospitality is disrespectful. I'll just tidy up a bit..."

"Come here and get settled, you hurry up, lie back in bed for me!"

Damo unceremoniously snatched the broom and rag from Liuer's hands.

“Old Yang’s family are reasonable people. They saw our situation yesterday, you know. Don't be embarrassed. You've seen the worst of it already, and they didn't say anything about it. They even said they were coming over again today!” Da Mao said.

This is a good example of how HTML tags should not be translated.

Liu'er blushed and had to obediently sit back on the bed.

Da Mao began to clean the room where Liu'er was, chatting with her as he cleaned.

"Liu'er, it seems our family is going to have a happy event!" the man said.

Liu'er's face flushed even redder, "Big brother, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Da Mao grinned and said, "You and Yongzhi!"

"What's wrong with Yongzhi and me? I still don't understand!" Liuer stared at Damao with wide eyes.

In their eyes, flickered a mixture of surprise, astonishment, a touch of trepidation, and excitement.

Dàmao stopped what he was doing, turned around, and came to the bed.

"Sister, there are some things your brother has been keeping from you. Now that I see your illness improving, I'll tell you the truth..."

Then, Da Mao took advantage of Liu'er being sick and disoriented to sneak to Changping Village and tell Lao Yang everything.

“Huh? Me, I...I have lovesickness?” Liu’er was shocked herself.

Big Mao nodded: "No wonder after changing several doctors and taking several prescriptions, it didn't get better."

“Only a heart ailment can be cured by heart medicine, you see, Yongzhi came for a visit, and you instantly became full of energy. This is the effect of the medicine!” Damo said.

Liu'er's breathing became rapid, sitting there for a long time unable to calm down.

After a long while, the girl raised her hand and covered her face.

"Brother, this is embarrassing. I'm too ashamed to see Young Zhi again..." She looked remorseful and dejected.

"Why? This is good, isn't it?" Damo wondered.

Liu'er said: "Old Yang's family, and Yongzhi ge, they all understand my feelings now. How can I still have the face to see them?"

"I was happy before, but now I'm not."

"Why?" Damo asked, even more confused.

Liuer said, “Yongzhi ge, you came to see me out of pity for me.”

“He is a kind person, he doesn't want me to die from this, so he came to see me in secret from his wife.”

"This matter, sister-in-law might have known about it too. Oh my god, I feel so embarrassed, to do this to someone else's husband..."

Liu'er was saying something incoherent, with a conflicted look on her face.
