She had many prescriptions in her mind. If she wrote dozens of them and sold them, she wouldn’t have to worry about money.

However, on second thought, Ye Qingyu thought that doing too much was not a good idea. If she sold too many prescriptions, she would definitely be suspected and even cause big trouble.

She would think about selling prescriptions later.

“That’s right, Brother Qin. My daughter read this from a medical book. Five taels is too much,” Ye Dashan hurriedly said.

“You don’t understand. If I say it’s worth it, it’s worth it. There’s no need to say anything else.” Shopkeeper Qin smiled and waved his hand. “I won’t suffer a loss.”

When Ye Dashan heard this, he could only give up. Instead, he bowed gratefully and thanked Shopkeeper Qin.

He would receive another five taels of silver. Not only could he repay some important external debt, but he could also let his son continue to study and take the Elementary Scholar examination!

Ye Dashan was filled with excitement and couldn’t help but look at his daughter.

It was all because of his daughter that such a good thing happened.

His daughter’s good fortune was back!

Ye Qingyu and her family came out of the pharmacy with joy on their faces.

However, not long after they walked out, Ye Qingfeng let out a cry and jumped. Ye Qingyu and the others were so shocked that they looked at him. “What’s wrong?!”

“Hehe, I just pinched myself. It hurts!” Ye Qingfeng rubbed the place where he was pinched and smiled like a little fool.

“I was just worried that I was having a beautiful dream. Fortunately, I’m not.”

Ye Qingyu was amused by her brother. He was usually very smart, but now, he was so silly that he looked adorable.

“Kid, you’re faster than me. I wanted to pinch myself just now too. I also though I was dreaming. Otherwise, how could there be such a good thing?” Ye Dahe said with a smile.

“Look at the two of you. You can’t keep your cool at all.”

Ye Dashan wanted to scold his brother and son with a straight face, but when he remembered that not only could his father’s illness be cured, but he had also received an additional five taels of silver, he couldn’t keep a straight face either. Instead, he grinned happily.

Ye Qingyu wanted to laugh out loud because of them, but this was outside after all. She still had to take care of her image and couldn’t laugh, so her stomach hurt from holding back her laughter.

She couldn’t help but turn to look at her eldest brother, whose expression was normal. She felt that her first younger brother was still the calmest, smartest, and most tenacious. He was indeed suitable for academia.

“Father, let’s go to the bookstore and buy some books, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones for Qingshu. The examination is in two months. Time is tight, and there’s not much time left for Qingshu to prepare for the exam. Buying these things is the most important.”

Ye Qingyu turned around and spoke to her father.

“Big sister!” Ye Qingshu hurriedly turned to look at her in shock. His expression was moved, and his lips trembled slightly. He was so excited that he could not control himself.

“You want me to continue studying and become an Elementary Scholar?”

“That’s right. Not only do I want you to take the Elementary Scholar examination, but I also want you to take the High Scholar examination three years later, and then become an Imperial Scholar!” Ye Qingyu smiled and looked at her first younger brother with encouragement and approval.

“Not only are you smart, but you’re also willing to suffer and have insight in your studies. I believe that you will definitely be able to become an official.

From today onwards, study in peace. You don’t have to do the work at home anymore. Father and I will earn the money. Our family will be the same as before, getting better and better!”

When Ye Dashan heard his daughter take the initiative to mention spending money to let his son study, he was extremely gratified and quickly said,

“That’s right. Your grandfather’s illness will also recover, and our family will have a lot of money. There’s enough for you to study.”
