Chapter 22
Doctor Lu immediately nodded his head: “Of course, this herb’s effect is not the same as the other traumatic medicine, it’s effect is very good. So, if you can really find selaginella, we can definitely sell it at a good price. I can help you sell it, but you look like this right now… …”
Bai Zhi waved her hand: “I’m fine, it’s only a few skin injuries. Children lived at the foot of the mountain doesn’t live like a precious gem. We will leave the Bai Family soon, so niang and I can only look at each other.”
Doctor Lu’s eyes were full of admiration. This child was so young but very sensible. If his daughter was half as sensible as her, he wouldn’t need to worry about anything.
The sky was getting darker, so Doctor Lu didn’t stay much longer. He hurried back home before the sky completely turn black. He also left in a hurry as to not let the other people made a gossip.
Seeing Bai Zhi closed the door, Zhao Lan took Bai Zhi’s hand and let her sit, then asked: “Zhi’er, what adding selaginella thing are you talking about? Your not talking nonsense, right? This ointment can save people’s lives, you shouldn’t blindly play with it.”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Niang, do you think I’m only talking nonsense? Didn’t you hear Lu dafu’s words? He also knew the effect of Selaginella.”
Zhao Lan was even more puzzled: “How did you know that?” Her daughter seemed to have changed and became more talkative than ever. And everything she said was so strange. She had never heard of them before.
“When I dig some wild vegetables before, I heard some people talking about it. I didn’t know that it was really good. Niang, let’s just sleep, okay? We’re all tired today.”
When Zhao Lan was coaxed to go to bed, she had quickly forgotten the issue. Her daughter has changed, but it was a good change. So, she was very happy.

The next day morning, when Yingzi’s mother and Yingzi came to the Bai Family’s House, they saw the old lady was feeding the chicken in the yard, and so Yingzi’s mother asked: “Is Zhao Lan at home?”
Old Lady Bai straightened her back and looked at Yingzi’s mother in curiosity: This woman actually came to our house and looked for Zhao Lan? This is amazing!
Yingzi’s mother was a woman from the town. But because she didn’t found a good husband when she was still young, she married a man from the mountain village. When she married the man, she gave a lot of dowries. At that time, the scenery was really beautiful. Who knows how many people felt envious.
And because she came from the town, she rarely talked to the women in the village. She always turned a blind eye to them. Especially, to Zhao Lan who was easy to be bullied.
So, why did she came looking for Zhao Lan?
“Do you have a business with her?” Old Lady Bai asked while moving her eyes to Yingzi, who was standing beside her mother. Yingzi has a small bamboo basket in her arm. The basket was covered with a piece of fabric. So, she couldn’t see the thing inside.
Although she couldn’t figure out what was inside, she knew that there must be something good in the basket.
Yingzi’s mother has stayed in this village for a long time now. So, how wouldn’t she know what kind of family the Bai was? And what kind of a person was this old lady is? She also knew what was the position of Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi in this family. If she will give this thing they brought to the old lady, it wouldn’t reach Zhao Lan’s hands.
Yingzi’s mother said with a smile: “It’s nothing, I have something to ask her.” Then, she turned her head over to Zhao Lan’s house. The broken house had collapsed. She thinks it must be because of the heavy rain yesterday. So, she busily asked: “What happened to their house? Is Zhao Lan and Zhi’er all right?”
Old Lady Bai waved her hand and said: “What can happen to them? Those people have strong bones. They didn’t stay here last night. They went and stayed in Hu Changlin’s place. You go in there and you will find her.” Afterward, the old lady added some filthy words.
Yingzi’s mother frowned her eyebrows and quickly pulled her daughter. She doesn’t want to let her daughter heard those dirty words of the old lady.
