"Why is this disinfection method so complicated?" a woman asked in confusion.
The man in the house said to the woman, "We will do whatever the Second Master tells us to do. She won't harm us."
Gu Fanzhi's men immediately said, "You two, please don't misunderstand me. This method was thought up by Miss Gu, not some second-in-command. If you want to thank someone, you should thank Miss Gu. Don't mistake the person for her."
"What? Isn't this what the second-in-command said?" The middle-aged man looked at them in surprise.
The yamen runner beside him nodded.
The middle-aged man said directly: "Then we won't do it. It's too troublesome."
The woman followed suit, saying, "I was wondering why Second Master would suddenly change it. Looking at how complicated it is, it's obvious it wasn't Second Master's work."
Gu Fanzhi's men were a little angry after hearing what they said. "How can you say such things? Miss Gu is doing this for your own good, and you don't even appreciate it. How can that Second-in-Command's method be as good as Miss Gu's?"
"Miss Gu, Miss Zhang, how could she be so powerful? Can you help me ask her, can she cure smallpox? Can she prevent all of us from getting infected with smallpox in the future?"
When Gu Fanzhi's men heard what they said, they were so angry that their noses were crooked.
"You're asking too much. Who has the ability to do that?"
The middle-aged man said, "Yes. The Second-in-Command can do it."
"How is that possible?" he said subconsciously.
The woman snorted coldly, "How can it be impossible? Your Miss Gu doesn't have that ability, so why should we not allow our Second-in-Command to have that ability? If you can't do it yourself, don't think others are the same as her."
"You, you guys..." Gu Fanzhi's men were very angry.
The yamen runner was afraid the old man would lose his temper, so he tried to smooth things over, "Old Zhang, you two should stop talking. They're from Chang'an City, so it's normal for them not to know the Second In Command's abilities. Once they see it for themselves, they'll understand."
As they were about to leave, the middle-aged woman called out, "Wait."
"Anything else?" Gu Fanzhi's men thought to themselves whether they regretted it and wanted to use that method.
"The Miss Gu you just mentioned is the head of the Gu Trading Company, Gu Pianran?"
"Yes, it's her." The man didn't know the consequences of his words.
The middle-aged woman's eyes suddenly widened, and she opened her mouth and shouted at the top of her voice, "Everyone, neighbors, please come out quickly. The woman who harmed the second-in-command has come to our Yanzhou."
"Everyone, come out quickly."
The subordinate was completely confused.
The courtyard doors that had been tightly closed were opened one by one, and everyone walked out of their homes. Some of them were holding rotten vegetable leaves and garbage in their hands.
"Where is that woman from the Zhang family?"
"Where is she?"
The group looked around and saw no strange woman except a strange man.
A woman with a wild imagination pointed at Gu Fanzhi's subordinate and said, "Miss Gu, could it be him?"
Everyone stared at that person, and he felt a little scared by their unfriendly looks.
"I, I'm not. I'm a man." The man said nervously and stuttered.
Aunt Zhang said, "It's not him."
"Then why are you shouting?" someone said dissatisfiedly.
