Yu Wan did not interfere with what happened after that. After paying for the medicine, she brought Little Bruiser out. She held her brother's hand and walked to the side of the road, putting the empty pouch into her arms.When she had turned the pouch over just now, Little Bruiser had seen it clearly. She had not left a single copper coin. Little Bruiser knew exactly what that meant. However, he understood that those copper coins were used to buy medicine for his uncle. Although he really wanted to eat osmanthus cake, he hoped that his uncle would get better.
"Bruiser..." Yu Wan bowed.
Little Bruiser suppressed the sadness in his heart and said sensibly, "I'm fine, Sis. I don't like osmanthus cake to begin with!"
"Is that so?" Yu Wan gently rubbed his little head. Her fair hand slid past his ear and a copper coin appeared between her index and middle fingers. She smiled softly.
Little Bruiser's eyes widened and he quickly touched his ears. "I, I, I have copper coins in my ears?"
Yu Wan smiled. "Do you still want the osmanthus cake?"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes!" Little Bruiser shouted excitedly! His disappointment was swept away. The joy of regaining what he had lost was even more pleasant than the first time he found out that he could eat osmanthus cake!
"How much is osmanthus cake?" Yu Wan came to the stall.
The vendor said, "One copper each."
"Give me a piece." Yu Wan handed him the copper plate in her hand. "Can you cut it in half?"
A copper plate of osmanthus cake was already small enough. How small would it be if it was cut into two halves? The vendor looked at the siblings with a strange expression. In the end, he agreed with a smile. "Okay."
Not only did the vendor cut a thin piece of osmanthus cake in half, he even wrapped it up meticulously.
"Thank you." Yu Wan thanked him and handed half of the osmanthus cake to Little Bruiser. "Can you leave the other half for me?"
"Yes!" Little Bruiser nodded happily!
...
"Brother, what is that woman up to?"
"How should I know?"
"Back then, I couldn't even borrow a single copper coin when I went to borrow money from her. Now that Father's leg can't be treated, she's acting all pretentious again!"
Yu Feng frowned. "Who told you Father's leg can't be cured?"
Yu Song opened his mouth and wanted to say, "That's what the doctor said. You were there at that time too. Didn't you hear it? The best time for treatment has passed. Now, taking medicine will only stop the situation from worsening..."
He was ultimately unable to say these words.
However, Big Brother didn't deny that the woman was putting on an act, right?
He knew it!
She was indeed pretending to be a good person!
What was she after?
Yu Song was almost angered to death by Yu Wan's charity, but he had no choice but to suppress his anger and take the medicine bag from the medicine boy. He thought that perhaps this was what she wanted. She wanted to anger them to death!
...
Yu Wan bought the osmanthus cake with the copper coins left as the fare. She really could not think of making another one out of her fingers, so she could only walk back to the village with Little Bruiser.
