Grace Bennett also had a deep sense of worry, thinking to herself that her son had finally been allowed to come home, and she just hoped nothing else would go wrong.
"Don't worry, I won't act impulsively again!"
Jason Carter certainly understood what his parents were thinking.
"Brother, it's not a big deal if you don't go to college. Many of the girls have gone to the city to work. When the time comes, I'll go work in the city too. As long as we work hard together, we'll definitely be able to pay off the debt."
Olivia Carter said seriously as well.
Seeing his three family members talking like this, Jason Carter didn't want to explain any further. He just smiled and said nothing more.
Chapter 4: Testing the Medicine
The next day, everyone in the family went out to work in the fields. No one let Jason Carter go with them, so Jason Carter had no choice but to stay home and wait for the medicinal wine to finish soaking.
According to his memories, this simplest kind of medicinal wine only needed a day before it could be consumed, and its effects were quite strong.
By noon, seeing the scorching sun outside, Jason Carter carried the jar out and carefully opened it.
As soon as the jar was opened, a fragrant aroma wafted out.
Taking a deep breath, Jason Carter felt a sense of intoxication.
It smelled wonderful!
This was a special kind of fragrance, completely different from any wine aroma Jason Carter had smelled before.
Pouring some of the wine into a bowl, he saw at a glance that the wine was crystal clear, with no color at all, and not the least bit cloudy.
Hmm, this aroma, this color, this feeling...
Comparing it to the knowledge in his memory, Jason Carter was already certain that this was exactly the kind of wine he needed.
Did it really have such powerful medicinal effects?
Sitting there looking at the wine, Jason Carter thought about the effects of the wine from his memories.
Back in prison, Jason Carter had mixed with all kinds of people. They would often joke around in private, and most of the jokes were about men and women.
Although he was only seventeen, Jason Carter had learned quite a bit about such matters from their conversations. What stuck with him most was the issue of men being unable to perform, which was always the main topic of their jokes.
Jason Carter even remembered one cellmate sighing about it, saying that if someone could make him "never go soft," he'd pay any amount of money.
Remembering this, as Jason Carter thought about how to solve his family's financial problems, he thought of that middle-aged man. That man was a boss, but he had that problem, which was why his wife left him for someone else. In a fit of rage, he cut off the man who stole his wife and ended up in prison. However, the man was very influential and got out in just two years.
The target for Jason Carter's jar of wine was that middle-aged man.
Would this wine really work, or would he just end up being laughed at if it didn't?
Jason Carter was also a bit worried about the wine's effectiveness.
After hesitating for a moment, Jason Carter picked up the bowl and drank all the wine in one gulp.
Whatever, I'll just try it myself first.
"Nothing happened!"
After drinking, Jason Carter checked how he felt and sighed, thinking he was just overthinking it.
He put the lid back on the jar and returned it to its place, feeling a bit disappointed.
However, just as Jason Carter put the wine away, he felt a wave of heat rising from his lower abdomen, and suddenly his whole body felt hot.
Ah!
Looking down, Jason Carter was startled. He glanced around, then carefully pinched that crucial spot, and could clearly feel it was extremely strong.
It really works!
Now Jason Carter had no more doubts.
But after drinking the wine, Jason Carter found that his whole body was heating up, and that crucial spot was so swollen it was almost unbearable.
He drank too much!
Looking around, the powerful effect was making Jason Carter extremely uncomfortable.
He could only soak in the river!
Without thinking further, Jason Carter dashed out of the house.
As soon as he got outside, Jason Carter ran toward the small river.
"Xiaofei, what's going on? Why are you running to the river in such a hurry?" After just a few steps, Jason Carter heard someone call him.
"Oh, it's Aunt Xiang!"
Seeing it was his neighbor Aunt Xiang, Jason Carter had to stop.
Then Jason Carter noticed Aunt Xiang's gaze drop to his lower body.
Following her gaze, Jason Carter's face turned red. He instinctively covered himself with his hand and quickly said, "It's too hot, I'm going for a swim."
With that, he said no more and ran quickly toward the small river.
Clicking her tongue, Aunt Xiang watched Jason Carter run off, her own face a bit flushed. She had clearly seen the situation down there.
"This brat really is..." she muttered, her eyes growing a bit heated as she watched Jason Carter jump into the river from afar.
"This brat!"
Aunt Xiang hurried back into her house.
Jason Carter had no idea his actions had stirred Aunt Xiang's feelings. Only after jumping into the river did he feel the heat dissipate a bit.
It shouldn't be harmful!
