Although Zhigang was Zhiguo’s second brother, Zhigang’s wife was a little older than Ding Jun. It was not wrong for her to address Ding Jun as Little Jun.

Zhigang’s wife looked at Ding Jun and spoke with a sincere tone. She seemed to have thought of something, her eyes lit up. “Oh Right, let me recommend you some Chinese medicine that I often take. My mother asked for a folk prescription from an old Chinese doctor in their village. She said that if I take it often, I will definitely be able to give birth to a son.”

Zhigang’s wife said as she stood up to find a prescription for her.

Ding Jun quickly smiled and stopped her. She refused, “No, I won’t take it. I think it’s the same for both boys and girls.”

Zhigang’s wife was stunned. She seemed to have given up trying to persuade her. “Alright, let’s hope its a son. Haha.”

Ding Jun lowered her eyes and did not say anything else.

She helped to do some needlework in the main residence. When it was time for dinner, Ding Jun went back. Just as she was about to cook dinner, Ding Jun saw Ding Ling in the courtyard.

“Sister, give me 10 yuan for living expenses.” Ding Ling skipped towards Ding Jun. It was a matter of course for her to ask for money without any hesitation.

Ding Jun was stunned. She looked at Ding Ling with some scrutiny in her eyes. “Spending so quickly? Didn’t I give you 10 yuan for living expenses last time?”

The last time she went to the Ding family with Chen Zhiguo and said that she could afford Ding Ling’s tuition fees, she also gave her 10 yuan for living expenses. 10 yuan was not a small amount. It was enough for her to spend for a while.

Ding Ling glanced to the side unnaturally and did not say anything else.

Ding Jun’s tone was a little serious. “If you can tell me why you want the money, then tell me. If you can’t tell me, then I can’t give you the money.”

Ding Ling pursed her lips, feeling a little guilty. “My classmates need 10 yuan to plan a trip.”

Ding Jun raised her eyebrows. “Everyone has to go?”

Ding Ling lowered her head even more and scratched her fingers. “No, it’s voluntary.”

Ding Jun Thought for a moment. “How are your final grades? Did you do well?”

If Ding Ling did well, she could indeed go out and play. If she did not do well, then she could not be playful anymore. She had to calm down at home and find a reason to make up for her grades.

Before Ding Jun could finish her sentence, she saw Ding Ling furrow her brows. There was a hint of irritation and impatience in her tone. “Forget it, forget it. I won’t ask you for money.”

Ding Ling turned around and ran away. It was not that she ran away because she did not want the money. It was just that she remembered that she had bumped into the place where Mother Ding hid the money. If Ding Jun did not give it to her, she could just steal some by herself.

Ding Jun looked at Ding Ling’s back as she left, and she was so angry that her she puffed her chest. Just then, someone suddenly knocked on the door, and it sounded very urgent. Ding Jun came back to her senses and quickly opened the door.

The person who came was the neighbor’s aunt. Her expression was a bit serious and nervous, when she saw Ding Jun, she quickly grabbed her sleeve. “Ding Jun, Zhijun’s wife suddenly fainted when she was talking to me this morning. I couldn’t wake her up no matter how I shook her! I called the doctor in the village to look at her, but he was helpless. Then, I called the Chen family to send her to a big hospital. Now, the entire Chen family is in a mess. I came to inform you.”

Ding Jun frowned and thanked him repeatedly. Then, she quickly took the few hundred yuan that she had earned these days and hurried to the hospital with Chen Zhiguo. When the two of them arrived, they happened to bump into Zhijun’s wife who had finished her examination. The doctor was in the ward talking to her family.

“I suspect that she ate something that caused her acute renal failure. Do you know what she ate?”

Mother Chen and Chen Zhijun looked at each other. They did not know much and shook their heads repeatedly. The others were also silent at the side. A few children were sobbing softly.

Ding Jun suddenly thought of something and quickly went forward. “I know. She has been eating Chinese medicine that can give birth to sons.”

Everyone hesitated for a moment. The doctor frowned. “Do you know the formula of the Chinese medicine?”

Ding Jun shook her head. “I don’t know.”

“My daughter! My daughter!” Just then, a middle-aged woman barged into the ward. She was Zhijun’s wife’s mother..
