Chapter 344 Fellow Villagers' Building
After Chen Yanfu visited the Li family before, she expressed her intention to become a female teacher in the Women's Assistance Association, and would come every three to five days.
Whether it's helping Qin Niangzi with something or just having a chat with Li's mother and sister-in-law.
“Mingyue told me when she got home that you have seen a lot of patients in the past two weeks. I think you should take a good rest after this free clinic ends.”
So, when I arrived, Midwife Li wanted to wake you up, but I stopped her.
You've been working hard for half a month, take a good rest.
I didn't come to you for anything; I just liked Mr. Qin's character and wanted to have a chat.
Li San Niang nodded, but still smiled at Chen Yanfu and said, "Oh, Sister Afu, you don't like me, Li San Niang, after seeing Mr. Qin. I'm so sad."
Li's mother couldn't stand Li San Niang's frivolous jokes the most. "Be serious! What kind of talk is that!"
“Midwife Li, it’s alright. Third Sister is just getting close to me.” Chen Yanfu turned to look at Third Sister Li: “Good Third Sister, you know very well that you are still my favorite. Otherwise, I wouldn’t come to this Women’s Help Association every now and then.”
After a few jokes, the group steered the conversation back to the women's support group meeting.
"Judging from this trend, after the first month of next year, a large number of young women should be coming to school."
"If you need my help then, Mr. Qin, please just let me know."
Madam Qin smiled and replied, "Then I would be more than happy to accept that."
...
During the next two days of vacation, on the first day, Li San Niang discussed the future path of the Women's Assistance Association with Chen Yanfu and the others in the morning. In the afternoon, she worked on planning, mainly because the ten midwives from the school who had learned to read and write by Qin Niangzi should start classes next spring.
What to say? How to say it? All of this needs to be thought out, written down, and explained to Li's mother, sister-in-law Li, and second sister-in-law Li beforehand. Any parts that are not easy to understand can be revised.
Originally, Li San Niang wanted to spend more time with Lu Zhu'er, but during the two days Li San Niang stayed at home, she found that Lu Zhu'er wasn't very attached to her.
It's enough to just see Li Sanniang around, call her "Mother," and hear her respond.
Originally, there were only two days off, but thinking about the invitation Ding Anbo had sent earlier, Li San Niang specially sent a message to Manager Gao to ask for an extra day off.
Manager Gao didn't ask for the reason, assuming that Li San Niang was exhausted and wanted to rest for another day, so he directly granted her leave.
So, Li San Niang told her parents about Ding Anbo.
"I'll go and see what this person's intentions are."
If it can help our women and be of benefit, then I'll decide whether or not to get involved.
If I were a pretentious person, only thinking about making a quick buck, I'd just have a cup of tea and go home.
Seeing the furrowed brows of Li's father and second brother, Li San Niang glanced at Qiu Xiang and said, "Father, second brother, don't worry about me. Qiu Xiang will be traveling with me in carriage number nineteen. Her safety will definitely be guaranteed."
Furthermore, I think the Temple Gate shouldn't dare to cause any more trouble at the end of the year.
Mr. Li still had a stern face: "Then you still need to be more careful. If anything seems amiss, leave immediately."
On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Li San Niang changed into an inconspicuous indigo dress, took the invitation left by Ding Anbo earlier, and went out.
This teahouse, named Laoxianglou, is located on a commercial street in Yankangfang, surrounded by gold and silver shops, fabric and clothing shops, and restaurants.
It was noisy outside, but once you stepped into this building, the noise subsided considerably.
Li San Niang thought that this was probably because soundproofing materials had been added to the walls of the building during the construction process.
As soon as Fu entered, a servant came forward and handed her the invitation. The servant then led her up to the third floor.
"Sir, the invitation clearly states that only Physician Li is invited."
Li Sanniang, who had already stepped into the house, turned around and saw the servant reaching out to block Qiuxiang and Shijiu.
The servant withdrew his hand, looked up and smiled at Li San Niang: "Doctor Li, please invite your two friends to sit in the next room."
After all, the other visitors also went in alone.
Qiu Xiang and Shi Jiu exchanged a glance and said in unison, "No way!"
"Third Sister, since that's the case, let's go back. It doesn't seem like we're very welcome here."
After Nineteen said this, the servant remained silent with his head down, standing at the doorway to block Nineteen and Qiu Xiang from speaking.
Li San Niang then turned to Shi Jiu and Qiu Xiang and said, "It's alright, you two go next door and wait for me. I'll come out as soon as we're done talking."
If anything happens, I will shout it out.
Nineteen and Qiuxiang had no choice but to watch Li Sanniang enter the house, and the two of them followed the servant to the next room.
Li San Niang thought there was no one in the house, but when she went in, she found a man dressed in black sitting at the large round table.
The sound of Li San Niang and the others talking at the door naturally caught the man's attention. When he saw Li San Niang walk in, he stood up and bowed.
"Li San Niangzi!"
My name is Xing Yu. I previously visited the Li family to thank them for saving my son.
After Xing Yu finished speaking, he saw Li San Niang return the greeting and look at him without any surprise.
After the two sat down, Xing Yu poured tea for Li San Niang. Neither of them spoke, but while they were drinking tea, Li San Niang heard Xing Yu laugh out loud.
"Haha, I knew it. If I opened a supermarket, I would probably expose myself."
I just didn't expect that it would take so long for someone to come knocking on my door.
Before Li San Niang could figure out what to say in response, Xing Yu eagerly shared his experiences with her.
"...Oh my, you have no idea how scared I was back then. Even though they're not my biological children, they're still born from this body of mine..."
I then had the idea to come to Chang'an.
"Li San Niangzi, tell me, besides us, there's this Ding Anbo who suddenly appeared, and that one up above," Xing Yu pointed upwards, subtly referring to Emperor Wu, "Are there any other people from the Tang Dynasty in this timeline?"
Li San Niang felt a little embarrassed. She really hadn't expected that Xing Yu, who owned such a large supermarket and had done a lot of business, could be such a lively person.
Li San Niang put down her teacup, staring at it intently, and said, "That depends on how many people Ding Anbo sent out invitations to, and how many of them will actually come over after reading them."
However, "Li Sanniang looked up at Xing Yu, "I wonder what Ding Anbo's intentions are?"
After saying this, Li San Niang turned to look at the wall behind her. There was a landscape painting hanging on the wall, but Li San Niang stared at the painting as if there was someone behind it.
"As soon as I came in, if I calmed down and listened, I could hear that it wasn't just my and Xing Yu's heartbeats in this space," Li San Niang thought to herself, and then activated her X-ray vision on the painting.
really!
There's someone behind the wall!
Besides Ding Anbo, whom I had seen before, there was another man in a white shirt.
