Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

After returning to Houshan Village, Bai Ruozhu rested at home for seven or eight days, but her contact with the outside world was not broken. During this period, she sent Jian Qi and others to the Chamber of Commerce to constantly inquire about news, and finally received a secret letter from her master, saying Helped her save Fang Guizhi and Wei San.

Bai Ruozhu excitedly told her parents the good news, and then came over for the next five days to receive the good news again. It was a letter from Zhang Liliang, saying that they were already on their way to Houshan Village.

These two pieces of news made Bai Ruozhu eat an extra bowl of rice, and even the morning sickness disappeared. Lin Ping'er said that a good mood is the most effective for pregnant women.

At the same time, some rumors against Bai Ruozhu spread in the village. It is not known whether it was spread by the old house or who deliberately spread it. Bai Ruozhu was too lazy to care about it and did not want to have any contact with the old house.

In the main room, Wang Caiyue quietly said to Lin Ping'er: "Mom, I heard bad words again when I went out today. Some people also stabbed me a few times, saying that Ruozhu was divorced and returned home. I was so angry that I almost had a quarrel with them. After one fight, I was worried that this matter would reach Ruozhu's ears, and she would be thinking about her brother-in-law again, wouldn't she be even more sad?"

When Lin Ping'er arrived in the capital, she tried hard to restrain herself for the sake of her image as a lady, but when she returned to the village, the aggressive factor in her bones was ready to stir up again.

"Who? Who said that? I brought people to tear their stinking mouth apart!" Lin Ping'er shouted.

Wang Caiyue hurriedly grabbed her and made a shushing gesture, "Mom, don't let Ruozhu hear this.

Lin Ping'er thought that her daughter was still having the pregnancy, and she immediately suppressed her anger and muttered: "Forget it, there's no need to argue with them. Our Ruozhu is the female chief medical officer personally appointed by the emperor. Who dares to divorce her? Even Xiu. She divorced Xiao Jiang."

Wang Caiyue couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this, "Mom, my brother-in-law is so kind to Ruozhu, why should I divorce him?"

When Lin Ping'er thought about her son-in-law keeping her daughter alone, not taking concubines or marrying each other, and not having the habit of those young men in Beijing going to Fireworks Willow Alley, she immediately squinted her eyes and smiled, "I was just talking casually."

As a result, within two days, those rumors became more and more intense. Some people said that Lin Ping'er had such a bad temper that she didn't even dare to fart. She must have been tricked and she had no shame to go out and confront them.

At this time, someone met Liu, the old lady of the old house, in the village, and asked curiously: "Aunt Bai, I heard that the third daughter of your family was divorced? Isn't it true? Doesn't it mean that the second child of your family is rich? How can my daughter be divorced?"

Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes and curled her lips and said: "My grandson-in-law is the child of a noble family in Beijing. His grandfather is also a pavilion elder. He married Ruozhu by accident because of his financial difficulties. However, the rich family has many rules. It's very serious, Ruozhu has such a wild temper, he will definitely not be welcomed by others."

"Hey, do you mean you are really divorced?" The long-tongued woman asked with excitement on her face. She had seen Bai Ruozhu from a distance once, and his air of grandeur made her jealous to death.

"How did I know? The children have become successful and look down on us." Mrs. Liu seemed to have said this casually, and then walked away with small steps.

The long-tongued woman quickly spread the word in the village, saying that Bai Ruozhu must have been divorced. Some people even said that Bai Yihong's family was rich and unkind, so Bai Ruozhu's divorce was retribution.

Bai Ruozhu didn't ask Jian Qi about this kind of thing. The secret guards on Jian Qi's side didn't bother to pay attention to the gossip even if they heard it, and they wouldn't go to their master to learn from it, but that didn't mean that others were willing to sit back and ignore it.

Wang Caiyue's mother, Wang Su, is the daughter-in-law of the patriarch's family. She is well-spoken and helps many families in the village, so she is very popular in the village.

She first pretended to meet a long-tongued woman on the road. The long-tongued woman did not dare to say nonsense in front of her. After all, the Bai family and the Wang family were related by marriage.

"Hey, isn't this the Zhao family's wife? Why haven't you gone to the ground yet?" Wang Sushi greeted with a smile.

"I'll go right away," the long-tongued woman replied.

Mrs. Wang Su exchanged some casual greetings with her, and then said with a smile: "My family Caiyue is really a blessed person. Her husband's brothers and sisters have all joined the court as officials. Those things in the palace were rewarded by the emperor and the queen mother. Give her a gift as well, the food and clothing are extremely rare, I thought I’d never seen them before.”

The Zhao family's daughter-in-law murmured in her heart, this Wang Su family isn't usually so showy, right? No, she suddenly realized, what does it mean that her younger brother and younger sister have become officials in the court? Wasn't it the second boy from Bai Yihong's family who got second place in the exam?

This curiosity made her feel like a cat scratching her head, and she hurriedly asked: "What kind of sister becomes an official in the court? Can women still be officials?"

Mrs. Wang Su looked like "You really don't understand" and explained with a smile: "That's Ruozhu. She is not only Mrs. Gaoming, but also the female chief doctor in the palace. She is in charge of all the female doctors. But as for a fourth-rank official, she has to I know that our county magistrate is only in the seventh rank."

The Zhao family's daughter-in-law was dumbfounded when she heard Wang Su continue to say: "Our Ruozhu treats the nobles in the palace. Her medical skills are very good. Even the emperor thinks highly of her. Her family is also a close official of the emperor. The two of them are The guy is very good at it, and the most important thing is that although the guy is an aristocratic son from the capital, he doesn’t have those messy habits at all. He hasn’t had concubines or married couples for so long, so Ruozhu is very lucky."

After saying this, Mrs. Wang Su muttered as if to herself: "You are a fourth-grade official, and there are many guards around you. You don't know who is short-sighted and gossiping, and you are not afraid of being dragged into a fight?" You can't even gossip about the county magistrate, let alone a high official who is much higher than the county magistrate."

The Zhao family's wife is already stupid, what? Make a plan? Not that serious, right?

When she left in despair, Ms. Wang Su raised the corners of her mouth, then went to several more houses and said these words again. The last words made her mouth dry and she went home happily.

Bai Ruozhu didn't know about this, but when she went for a walk in the village the next day, she found that the people she met looked at her very strangely, seeming a little curious and a little afraid. She murmured in her heart, what's going on?

So she asked Jian Qi to send someone to investigate. Soon Jian Qi figured everything out and came to her and told her everything.

Bai Ruozhu didn't mind the speculations of the villagers at all, but she was very grateful for Wang Su's actions. When she met her sister-in-law Wang Caiyue during dinner, she took her hand and thanked her properly.

After that, the gossip in the village decreased a lot, but some people still said that Bai Yihong's family was unfilial, and some even encouraged Bai Fu to confess to Bai Yihong, but Bai Fu just listened in silence and did not take any action.

A few days later, an inconspicuous carriage drove into Houshan Village and stopped at the gate of the Bai family. When Bai Ruozhu saw the person coming, his eyes widened...
