The news that the goddess's name was Zhuang Rongrong spread quickly throughout the town, and praise for her filled the streets and alleys.
Wen Sang and his servant also heard this. They retrieved their carriage and, to prevent any further problems, had it inspected.
The master and servant changed their clothes in the carriage and were on their way to the pharmacy when they overheard people chatting on the roadside.
Chunxiang curiously peeked out, "Madam, are there really such peculiar people in this world?"
"The world is full of wonders." Wen Sang chuckled, rubbing her stomach. "Didn't you just see that? That little girl just casually rubbed my stomach and the pain stopped."
"Madam, could that little baby be the goddess they were talking about?"
Chunxiang covered her mouth in surprise, "Listen to their description of the goddess's appearance, it's exactly the same as that little baby's! Madam, we're so lucky!"
Wen Sang also felt that the little girl was like a goddess. Since she could easily cure her own stomach pain, she could definitely cure Yuan'er's illness too!
Wen Sang was now filled with regret, wondering why she hadn't thought of this earlier, only realizing it after the person had left.
It's true that the older you get, the worse your memory becomes!
"Chunxiang, hurry, search the whole town, you must find that little baby!"
Zhuang Rongrong was enjoying the praise from the townspeople when she suddenly saw a horse-drawn carriage speeding towards her.
Her hand tightened; a benefactor had arrived.
Her good days are coming.
Zhuang Rongrong waited calmly for the carriage to break down next to the blacksmith shop, but to her surprise, the carriage didn't even stop and sped away.
That's strange, the book clearly says the carriage can break down!
I don't know what happened, but we can't wait here. We have to catch up first.
Qin and her three children did not linger in town. They bought some cloth and pastries and sweets and then returned home.
So Wen Sang searched all afternoon, and it was almost dark, but she still couldn't find them. She had no choice but to go and buy ginseng first.
Unable to catch up with the person, Zhuang Rongrong found the largest pharmacy to wait for him. She knew that the important person would definitely ask around at every pharmacy in town when buying ginseng.
"Madam, there are steps, please be careful." Chunxiang helped Wensang into the pharmacy.
Zhuang Rongrong heard the sound and looked out the door. Their eyes met, and she excitedly stood up.
This must be the important person!
After the two changed their clothes, Zhuang Rongrong couldn't tell at all that they were the disheveled women who had asked her for help on the road.
But Chun-hyang recognized her.
So young, yet they have absolutely no kindness.
Chunxiang looked extremely pale and whispered, "Madam, this little maid is the one who refused to stop the car."
Wen Sang looked up and took in the surprise and joy on Zhuang Rongrong's face.
If you're unwilling to help, why do you seem so happy to see her?
Zhuang Rongrong realized she had overreacted and quickly lowered her eyes, sitting down awkwardly.
The shop assistant greeted her, "Madam, please come in. What kind of medicinal herbs do you need? We have everything here."
"Do you have ginseng?"
The waiter's eyes lit up as he looked at Zhuang Rongrong. "What a coincidence! I just bought a ginseng from this little girl. It's of very good quality, although it's not very old, it's still quite good."
Knowing that a distinguished person had come to collect ginseng, Zhuang Rongrong brought along the ginseng she had found in the mountains last time.
She smiled gently and said, "What a coincidence. My ginseng was dug up from the mountain. I wonder if it suits your taste, Madam."
The waiter brought the ginseng over.
It's not top-tier, but it's still quite rare in this area these days.
The girl must have rushed here to buy ginseng because someone in her family was sick and needed money.
Wen Sang didn't hold it against her for not stopping the car, and turned to ask, "Little girl, how much do you want to sell this ginseng for?"
When Zhuang Rongrong arrived, she asked about the approximate price. The salesman said the ginseng was worth at most two hundred taels.
He then spoke frankly, "Madam, is two hundred taels acceptable?"
The little girl's face was full of sincerity, but Wen Sang had been in the house for a long time and could naturally see that her sincerity was just an act.
Perhaps she had her difficulties; two hundred taels of silver wasn't much for her.
Wen Sang gestured for Chunxiang to take the silver.
Chunxiang was somewhat reluctant, but the ginseng was for the young master's life, so she had to buy it for his sake.
After buying the ginseng, the master and servant were about to leave when Wen Sang remembered something and asked the waiter again.
"Waiter, you have a lot of customers here. Have you heard about the goddess that's been making headlines in town?"
“Then you’ve come to the right place, madam. I know the answer to this very well,” the waiter said confidently.
He naturally wanted to find out more about such a miraculous thing. The shopkeeper also knew about it and was planning to go to Peach Blossom Village to see the goddess's beauty.
Upon hearing the waiter's answer and the nobleman's question, Zhuang Rongrong knew that the nobleman was interested in this "goddess".
They might even go out of their way to look for it.
She sat there calmly, carefully wrapping the two hundred taels of silver, listening intently to their conversation.
"Then tell me quickly, what is the goddess's name? Where does she live?"
Wen Sang was somewhat excited. The goddess could not only cure her stomachache, but also pray for rain. If she could ask her to help bring rain back to Wuzhou City, then all the people in the city would be saved.
Her son can also be saved.
The waiter chattered on and on, “That goddess’s name is Zhuang Rongrong. She has a very petite and lovely face and lives in Peach Blossom Village outside the town.”
"Zhuang Rongrong..."
Wen Sang was taken aback. Wasn't it Sisi? That doll called herself Sisi, shouldn't she be called Sisi?
Chunxiang whispered, "Madam, perhaps Sisi is her childhood name, which is usually what her mother calls her."
Wen Sang thought it made sense. Having obtained the clue, she didn't want to wait a moment longer. Regardless of whether it was dark or not, she had someone drive a carriage towards Peach Blossom Village.
After everyone left, Zhuang Rongrong bought a carriage and secretly followed them.
Once the important person enters the village and inquires, she immediately takes a shortcut home, and the important person will naturally come looking for her.
Then, immense wealth will be right before your eyes.
But she forgot that the Zhuang family's house had collapsed.
So when Wen Sang, who had arrived earlier in his eagerness, was led to the farm by the villagers, he only saw ruins.
"this…"
Wen Sang couldn't believe that the goddess was so pitiful.
Thinking of that soft, sweet little face I saw in the carriage, I couldn't help but feel heartbroken for the suffering she had endured.
"Rongrong isn't here. She should be at the Zhou family's house. She's always been on good terms with the Zhou family, and the village chief is also considering having the Zhou family take her in."
Wen Sang hurriedly asked, "Where is the Zhou family?"
The villagers pointed in the direction of Zhou's house, "Just follow this road straight and you'll see it. They're building a new house. I'm so envious."
Thank you.
The coachman drove the carriage quickly toward the Zhou family's house.
They had only been gone a short while when Zhuang Rongrong hurriedly returned. It was her first time driving a horse-drawn carriage, and she wasn't very skilled at it. The horse was also unruly, causing a delay on the road.
When they got home, they didn't find the benefactor, but only a villager walking leisurely on the road.
She hurried over and said, "Uncle, have you seen a carriage come into the village? There was a noble lady in the carriage."
