Days passed, and a week had gone by since the winemaking began.
Zhen Wanwan entered the winery and took a small sip of wine.
After seven days, it had already begun to smell of wine.
"Wanwan! Wanwan! Are you home?"
Outside, Grandma Li and Grandma Zhou arrived carrying their small shopping baskets.
Hearing the noise, Zhen Wanwan responded loudly, closed the lid, and went out of the house.
Seeing the panicked look on Old Lady Li's face, she thought something had happened.
"Mother! What's wrong? Has something happened at home?"
When Grandma Li saw her, she breathed a sigh of relief and then a big smile appeared on her face.
"Wanwan! Hurry up and get ready, you're coming to the county town with me and your aunt later!"
Zhen Wanwan glanced at the two of them curiously; both of them looked delighted.
She couldn't help but tease, "Mom! Aunt! Did someone in the county town strike it rich? Why are you all smiles?"
Old Mrs. Li was anxious. While pushing her into the house to change her clothes, she explained, "What nonsense are you talking about! People are too busy hiding gold, how could they give it to us!"
"Hurry up and get ready, or the miracle doctor will be gone!"
Zhen Wanwan astutely grasped the key words and asked in return, "Mother! What kind of miracle doctor?"
Despite the question, Zhen Wanwan obediently put on a suitable outfit for going out.
Seeing that she was quick and efficient, Master Li stopped pushing her.
She explained from the side, "Recently, a miracle doctor has appeared in our county. I heard he can bring the dead back to life and heal bones..."
The more Zhen Wanwan listened, the more ridiculous it seemed. She kindly reminded him, "Don't be fooled by this 'miracle doctor'! Where in the world is there a miracle doctor who can bring the dead back to life?"
Not to mention healing the bones; once they've all turned to bones, how can a person still live?
Even if you turn it into a zombie, the zombie hasn't turned into bones yet!
Zhen Wanwan secretly thought to herself that she was certain that Old Lady Li and her companion had encountered a swindler.
Grandma Li didn't give her a chance to refuse. After seeing her dressed, she greeted Granny Zhang and asked her to take care of the child.
She and Aunt Zhou then took Zhen Wanwan by horse-drawn carriage to the county town.
Zhen Wanwan felt helpless, but since she was already there, she decided to go with them to take a look.
Strangely enough, Zhu Yuan said he wanted someone from the Hua family to come and take a look at him.
Seven days have passed, and there's still no sign of them.
Even Zhu Yuan has been returning at night these past few days and leaving again early in the morning.
I don't know what he's doing. When I asked him what happened, he only said that he had caught a spy and was going to interrogate the prisoner.
She didn't have time to ask any more questions.
Soon, Zhen Wanwan and the other two arrived in the county town.
Zhen Wanwan asked Ma Si to drive the horse-drawn carriage to the small house she had bought in the county town to rest and wait for them.
She accompanied Grandma Li and Aunt Zhou shopping, while she aimlessly followed the two of them.
Grandma Li and Aunt Zhou headed towards the largest clinic in the county town with a clear purpose.
When Zhen Wanwan arrived in front of the clinic, she was shocked to see the long line of people waiting in front of her.
Wow, this is huge! So many people have passed!
Grandma Li breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the scene before her.
She was always concerned about Zhen Wanwan's health, even though her daughter had sent her a message from the prefectural city saying that she had found a doctor and was much better.
But since she hadn't seen it with her own eyes or heard it with her own ears, she always felt uneasy.
Until three days ago, she heard in the village that a highly skilled doctor had come to the county town.
She didn't blindly listen to what others said, but came to inquire about the situation for three consecutive days.
Seeing that the doctor was truly skilled, she pulled Zhen Wanwan over.
Seeing Zhen Wanwan's nonchalant attitude, Old Lady Li said with some dissatisfaction, "This is a truly skilled doctor. You should let him take a good look at you later... Do you understand?"
Amidst Grandma Li's rambling, Zhen Wanwan nodded numbly.
Since her return, Old Lady Li has frequently asked a doctor to check her pulse.
Although the doctors all said she was in good health and had no problems.
Grandma Li was still worried, believing that their medical skills were not good enough.
So, they found a doctor and asked her to come and take a look.
But Zhen Wanwan couldn't bear to disappoint her daughter, so she obediently followed along to queue for the doctor's appointment.
The queue was long, but the doctor's visit was quick; she arrived after waiting in line for about an hour.
When Zhen Wanwan finally saw the doctor's true colors, she was taken aback. This person was just too... adorable!
Although he was very tall and dressed in a mature style, Zhen Wanwan always felt that he was a minor.
This kid's face looks so young! Is he sure he's over eighteen?
Zhen Wanwan expressed strong doubts!
Hua Yan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the woman in front of him, feeling a deep sense of disgust.
He'd been seen looking at like that many times before!
Although there was no malice in her eyes, he was very annoyed!
"If you look at me again, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
Hua Yan suddenly remembered the suffering he had endured during this period, and he inexplicably wanted to vent his anger.
And this anger was directed at Zhen Wanwan.
Zhen Wanwan felt uncomfortable after being yelled at for no reason.
She snapped, "What are you yelling about! If you don't want to watch, just say so! Who cares about you!"
Hua Yan hadn't expected that the country girl in front of him would directly confront him.
He raised his finger, saying incredulously, "What did you say?"
No one has ever dared to treat him like this since he was a child!
Although he was unpopular at home and disliked by his parents.
But no matter what, he is still a member of the Hua family.
Everyone below him did their best to please him.
In addition, his outstanding talent earned him respect within the clan.
Countless scions of noble families wanted to curry favor with him, but he had never been humiliated to his face before.
Zhen Wanwan didn't care what he was thinking.
This person looks young, but has quite a temper!
No matter how cute the face is, with this bad habit, it's still just a naughty child.
She hates unruly kids the most!
"I'm telling you, you're arrogant! You've grown up so much, don't you even know how to write the word 'respect'?"
Hua Yan was shocked, and only then did he properly examine Zhen Wanwan.
Although the clothes are simple, the fabric is excellent; they are made from the finest materials.
Although her manners and speech were crude, it was clear that she was educated.
During this period, very few families could afford to send their daughters to school, so it can be inferred that this person must have had a good background.
But no matter what family background they came from, they were all insignificant compared to the Hua family.
Hua Yan glanced at Zhen Wanwan, completely disregarding her.
"You rude person! I won't bother with you! You're not welcome here, get out of my stall!"
Before Zhen Wanwan could even utter a sound, Old Lady Li became anxious.
She happily brought her daughter all the way to see the doctor, having waited in line for so long.
Hua Yan just said she didn't want to, and they came for nothing?
Moreover, she dared to disrespect her daughter, which was a sore spot for Old Lady Li!
