Wenfang picked up the bowl and ate the green vegetables and pickles silently.
In fact, she had been used to this kind of life since she was a child. Even before she met Miss Bai, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Men are gods, and they must pass on the incense to the family, so whether the food or clothing in the family must be taken care of by the father and the eldest brother first.
But after coming to Miss Bai, she suddenly discovered that women can also start their own business, have their own property, and take care of so many people.
So now every time she returns to this home, she feels an unspeakable sense of depression.
Now she just wants to take her mother out, take her to see a doctor, and then mother and daughter depend on each other. It is best to never return to this home.
But she also understood that these thoughts could only be thought about secretly in her heart.
Not to mention whether her father and eldest brother would agree, her mother herself couldn't let go of her children and grandchildren, let alone her husband and son to live with her.
After finishing lunch with mixed emotions, and after her eldest brother and his family of three left, Wenfang found that the snacks she bought for her mother were missing.
Seeing that her daughter was silent, Wen Fangniang quickly explained: "You bought so much, I couldn't finish it myself, so I asked your sister-in-law to take it back and give it to the child..."
"It's okay." Wen Fang suppressed the soreness at the root of her nose and said, "I bought it for you, you can give it to whoever you want."
She said and picked up the dirty clothes piled beside the bed. After thinking about it, she picked out a few of her father's clothes and threw them back. She only took a few of her mother's clothes to wash.
Wen Fang Niang saw this in her eyes, hesitated for a long time, but still didn't say anything. She waited until Wen Fang went out and sighed deeply.
After washing the clothes and helping to tidy up the house, it was getting late and she would not be able to catch the car back if she didn't leave. Wenfang went out with worries about her mother.
The few people sent by Mr. Han had already divided their work. Some stayed to continue to keep an eye on her house, while the remaining few immediately followed her.
Several people followed Wenfang back to Wuchang Mansion first, and then saw her waiting outside the city gate for a while before getting on a carriage filled with goods.
Several people, some on horseback and some driving carts, continued to follow at a short distance.
But as the carriage in front went further and further away, and was about to leave the official road, the few people following behind couldn't help but become a little worried.
I don't know if I can follow the opponent's base camp if I continue like this, but it will easily surprise the prey that I haven't caught yet.
After some negotiation, the driver left the official road via a fork in the road, and the other two riders, one behind the other, followed at a close distance.
But the driver driving the car in front seemed to have noticed them and started to look back frequently.
The two of them saw that it was no longer possible to continue following like this, so the one behind them turned the corner first and left, while the remaining one chased after him and said: "Brother, please ask, is it right to go left along the official road?"
Homestead?"
The driver looked at the people on the horse and asked, "Why are you going to Zuojiazhuang?"
"A relative in my hometown has passed away, but my parents are old, so they asked me to come back to attend the funeral for them." The man on the horse said what he had planned for a long time, "My parents took me away from the Zuo family when I was very young.
It's so bad that you don't know the way at all.
“When I came out of Wuchang Prefecture, I asked someone about it, and they told me that if I walked along the official road, I would see a sign saying Zuojiazhuang.
"But I've been walking for so long and I haven't seen any brand!"
After hearing this, the driver softened his expression and said, "You have gone too far. You should go east at the intersection ahead. It turns out there is a sign on the roadside, but it was broken a while ago, so you may not have seen it."
"No wonder, I mean you shouldn't have to go so far!" The man on the horse said with his fists in his hands, "Thank you so much, big brother!"
After saying this, he turned the horse's head and started walking back.
Seeing that he had gone away quickly, the coachman breathed a sigh of relief and continued driving.
Little did he know that the few people who had been following them all abandoned their carriages and horses, hid in the woods on the roadside, and continued to follow them all the way.
After following the road for a while, several people discovered that neat farmland began to appear on the roadside, and there were many people working in the fields.
These people were obviously very familiar with the coachman. When they saw him coming back, they quickly put down their farm tools and surrounded him.
The coachman also stopped the car, took out a large basket from the car, and gave everyone the things that each family had asked him to buy.
Wenfang also got out of the car and talked to the people who came over.
When the leader saw this situation, he immediately made a stop gesture.
He took out a clairvoyant from his arms and looked into the distance for a long time. He could vaguely see a house in the distance, but he couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.
But judging from the scope of the house, it should be quite large.
Regardless of whether this area is the sphere of influence of Miss Bai, at least the people around her are very familiar with it. It is almost an impossible task to infiltrate and explore the information without alerting others.
So after the leader remembered the location, he quietly retreated with his people.
After Wenfang returned to Miss Bai's village, Shen Yunyao immediately came up to her and asked: "Sister Wenfang, you are back..."
Before she could finish her words, Miss Bai's voice came from the room: "Wen Fang is back?"
"Yes, girl, this slave is back." Wenfang quickly saluted.
"How is your mother's health? How are you taking the medicine you took last time?" Miss Bai asked the question that Shen Yunyao just wanted to ask first.
"Thank you for your concern, girl. However, my mother's illness has not lasted for a day or two. As long as it does not get worse, she is already fine." Wen Fang said with a sad expression.
"When we were in the city before, I told you that Madam Tong was very skilled in medicine. Didn't you want to take your mother to see her?"
"Of course I have thought about it," Wen Fang sighed, "but I have inquired about it and found out that Madam Tong now lives in Prince Rui's Mansion all year round and is not in the hospital at all.
"The opportunity for her to consult in person is rare. It's really hard to come by."
"Look what this is!" Miss Bai said, taking out a booklet with her backhand.
Wen Fang was illiterate, but Shen Yunyao on the side immediately read out the words on the cover of the booklet.
"Medical record?"
She wondered, could this be the medical record written by Lady Tong? Miss Bai wanted Wenfang to treat her mother according to the medical record?
But Wenfang had already inquired about Mrs. Tong's medical treatment before, so when she heard the word "medical record" and saw Miss Bai's smiling face, she immediately reacted, widened her eyes in surprise, and said in disbelief:
"Is this, is this a medical record written by the miracle doctor Jiang?"
Miss Bai smiled and nodded, but she had no intention of handing the medical case to Wen Fang. Instead, she said: "I will arrange for someone to bring your mother to Zhuangzi later, and then ask Mrs. Tong to come over and see her.
"I finally asked someone to get this medical record. If your mother's illness cannot be cured, we can't give it to her easily!"
Wenfang was so grateful that she burst into tears. She could only nod her head and couldn't say a single word.
As Shen Yunyao watched from the sidelines, she could not help but have a deeper understanding of Miss Bai's method of winning people's hearts.
