Chapter 242 Are you happy to see us arguing?
Hongluan did as instructed.
The copper coin spun around and soon came to rest on the table.
Yu Zhiyi glanced at it and smiled: "Don't worry, the people will be here soon."
Hongluan's face lit up with joy: "Really?"
Yu Zhiyi nodded: "However, we'll have to wait until I get back."
According to the divination, the destined doctor is in the southwest.
Coincidentally, Tianan County is located in the southwest.
However, the divination result was calculated based on Hongluan's wish, and if Hongluan went along, it would be easier to find the person.
But Hongluan still has so many orders to process, and these cannot be delayed.
She told Hongluan about these things and asked Hongluan for a personal item.
Hongluan gave her her favorite hairpin.
With this hairpin as a guide, we should be able to find a doctor soon.
Yu Zhiyi worked for several more days and finally finished processing all the files from the month-long vacation.
In fact, according to the emperor's wishes, she was allowed to take these files out to handle them, and she was also given manpower and the right to act expediently, as well as the right to supervise.
In other words, she could mobilize officials in all the prefectures and cities she passed through to do things for her, whenever she wanted.
However, Yu Zhiyi disliked dragging things out and owed debts. Moreover, the matter of the case file was of great importance. No matter how confident she was in herself, she would not rashly take such a thing out of the capital.
Besides, wouldn't it be better to rest for a month without any distractions?
Why make things difficult for yourself by taking a vacation with a bunch of troubles?
The trip to meet relatives was already fraught with trouble; if we had to deal with the issues in the case files as well, it would only add more worries to the already stressful situation.
Just as Yu Zhiyi finished dealing with everything, the constable who had gone to arrest the wife of the abusive husband returned.
Just as Yu Zhiyi had predicted, the wife was already dead when the constables arrived.
She had been on the run for nearly thirty years, from having a full head of black hair to being old and frail. Because of the inner torment, she had never been happy all these years.
Although the abusive man is dead, he still weighs on her heart like a mountain, leaving her no peace for a moment.
According to the constable, the wife is only fifty years old, but looks like an old woman in her seventies or eighties, which shows that she has not been doing well all these years.
When Li Rou heard this, she sighed inwardly: "They say that marrying a man ensures food and clothing, but if you marry someone like this, let alone having enough to eat and wear, even survival will be a problem."
She remembered her mother.
Her mother was also beaten by her father every day.
Yu Zhiyi pursed her lips: "Whether you're a man or a woman, you need to have the means to make a living. As long as you're strong enough and have enough inner peace, you can survive well even in a difficult world, no matter how stormy it is outside."
Since following Yu Zhiyi, Li Rou has been influenced by different things every day.
For some time now, she's had a vague idea in her mind, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't figure it out.
At that moment, she felt as if a gust of wind had blown away the confusion in her heart, and for the first time, she was so clearly aware of what she had awakened to.
Yes, women also need to have the means to make a living.
Isn't that how a young lady is?
It was clearly a hellish start, but the young lady single-handedly tore through the darkness, not only returning herself to the human world, but also bringing those around her back to the sunlight.
Then I felt a little lost again.
However, the young lady is skilled in divination and can also exorcise evil spirits.
And her?
What can she do?
Looking at Li Rou's confused eyes, Yu Zhiyi said calmly, "Don't rush, think it over slowly. To make a living, you don't necessarily have to have great skills or do earth-shattering things."
"It lies in whether it can bring you inner peace and give you the courage to face difficulties."
Li Rou nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
The governor's mansion has been prepared, but Yu Zhiyi still prefers to live in the house she got from the young master. There is a ready-made landscape there. Although it is not yet springtime, as long as Yu Zhiyi puts her mind to it, she can see the flowers falling in profusion.
She renamed the house again, keeping it simple and calling it Peach Garden.
She moved to Peach Garden the day before yesterday.
It takes half an hour to walk from the Ministry of Justice to Taoyuan, but only a little over a quarter of an hour by carriage if there are no obstacles.
Yu Zhiyi prefers walking.
This is also a form of spiritual practice.
Moreover, walking can also improve physical fitness, making it a very suitable form of exercise for ordinary people like Li Rou.
If the girl takes a walk like this every day, she will be healthy and radiant, even if she doesn't live to be ninety-nine.
Suddenly, Yu Zhiyi stopped.
Not far ahead, a man and a woman are arguing.
Man: "What happened last time was really just an accident. I have no relationship with Ms. Zhang. We just traveled together because we were going the same way."
Woman: "Going the same way? Do you even believe that yourself? Even if you're on the same road, you're a man. Wouldn't it be easy for you to overtake her?"
"When I met her, she was almost home. We only exchanged a few words before she reached her doorstep." The man's voice sounded tired, clearly weary of this entanglement.
"Heh! Aren't noblewomen the most concerned about their reputation? She's an unmarried girl, yet she's been traveling with a foreign man like you all the way. Who would believe she doesn't have feelings for you?"
"Bingyue, watch your words!"
That's right, the man and woman arguing were You Bingyue and Du Ziheng.
The reason for their argument is quite clear.
Yu Zhiyi had no interest in the two of them and was about to walk over when You Bingyue spotted her with sharp eyes and immediately became extremely embarrassed and annoyed.
"Yu Zhiyi, are you happy to see us arguing?"
Yu Zhiyi: "?"
She pretended not to hear and continued walking forward.
The more she ignored him, the angrier You Bingyue became: "What are you pretending to be so indifferent for? You're probably secretly overjoyed, aren't you? But do you know why we're arguing? Do you think he cares about you?"
Yu Zhiyi: "..."
She didn't want to pay attention, but this person seemed to have something wrong with their head. If she didn't respond, who knew what outrageous things this woman would say.
Turning around, a faint smile played on her lips, directly confirming You Bingyue's bad reputation: "Yes, I am very happy."
You Bingyue stared in astonishment.
She was just saying it in anger, but she was certain that Yu Zhiyi was a person who cared about her reputation, and even if she was secretly laughing to herself, she would never admit it.
To everyone's surprise, Yu Zhiyi actually admitted it.
They admitted it!
She was furious: "You really have always been unable to forget him."
"He was able to marry me while still entangled with you, and then continue to entangle with you even after we were married. So why is it so hard to understand that he's now entangled with another woman?"
"If someone has already been unfaithful in a relationship, can you still expect them to be devoted to you?"
