Seeing this, Lin Zao knew she couldn't hide it any longer.
"Those robbers broke my mother's leg. Her left leg bone has been set, and the doctor said she'll be able to walk normally again after six months of rest!"
Lin Zao paused for a moment, then said, "It's just that Mother's right leg will be left with a disability."
Tang's mother did not feel the despair Lin Zao had imagined. Perhaps her husband's abandonment made her feel worse, or perhaps the hope of finding her son soon overwhelmed everything.
Tang's mother was only sad for a moment before coming over to comfort Lin Zao.
“Zao Niang, you don’t need to worry about your mother. After all this, it’s already a blessing from God that I’m still alive. I only lost a leg. I can help with the laundry and cooking. I will definitely not be a burden to you!”
"Mother, you will never be a burden to us. Don't worry, we will definitely find husbands!"
Lin Zao finally felt relieved. She planned to rest in Luolin City for half a month and wait for Tang's mother's condition to stabilize before heading north to Ganzhou.
The most important thing now is to find a place to rent for half a month. It's still early, so Lin Zao told Tang's mother and the twins to rest at the clinic first. She would go out and find a place herself and then come back to pick them up.
Tang's mother was worried about Lin Zao going out alone and didn't know what Lin Zao was going to do, but she couldn't stop her and could only repeatedly tell Lin Zao to be careful.
"Zao Niang! It doesn't matter if you can't get the money, just please don't risk doing anything dangerous!"
"Mother, don't worry! I still have you all, I won't do anything foolish! Hu Tou and Ya Ya, you two stay here and take good care of Grandma. Don't go out and run around. If Grandma feels unwell, you must go see a doctor, okay?"
Lin Zao was a little worried about the two children. Tang's mother needed to recuperate and couldn't watch over the twins all the time. If the twins were to run around and act recklessly, no one would stop them.
"Don't worry, Mother, I will take good care of Grandmother and my sister!" Tiger Head patted his chest with a very manly air.
Lin Zao patted his head and said, "Then I'll leave them in the care of our Tiger Head!"
"Um!"
After leaving the inner hall, Lin Zao went out to find the old doctor. The old doctor was sitting outside seeing patients. Just as the last patient left, Lin Zao quickly went over and bowed to the old doctor to express his gratitude.
"Doctor, my mother has woken up. Thank you so much for saving her life. How much will the medicine cost?"
The old doctor waved for Lin Zao to get up.
"Madam, you're too kind! Treating the sick and saving lives is my duty, there's no need for thanks. As for the consultation, just give me 600 coins."
"As for the cost of the medicine, I have prescribed 10 doses for you. The main reason is that your mother suffered a very serious internal injury. The medicine I prescribed contains many precious herbs. The external medicine you used before was very good, so I don't think you need it."
After speaking, the old doctor glanced at Lin Zao's clothes and considered it for a moment.
"However, if Madam is struggling financially, she can choose a slightly lower-grade medicinal herb, but the effect will be much slower."
Lin Zao guessed that the old doctor might have misunderstood that she had no money, so she quickly refused.
"Doctor, please prescribe the best medicine. We have the money, but I don't have any cash on hand right now. I'll go out and exchange some money before I pay you back. Is that alright?"
"My mother and my two children are resting at the clinic. Could you please continue to look after them?"
"Please go ahead, Madam. I'll have my apprentice keep an eye on your mother's side!"
Lin Zao thanked the old doctor again after hearing this, and then left Jishi Medical Clinic with peace of mind.
Upon arriving outside, Lin Zao looked around and headed in a certain direction. She planned to buy some grain to exchange for money, but she needed to disguise herself before going there.
When Lin Zao reappeared, she looked like a completely different person.
His height increased from 165cm to 173cm. He wore height-increasing insoles and used makeup to transform himself into a somewhat dark-skinned and thin man.
The clothes she was wearing were short black and gray cotton clothes that she had found in her spatial storage. They didn't look too different from the clothes of this dynasty, but upon closer inspection, there were still significant differences.
Lin Zao carried a sack of rice toward the largest grain shop in the city.
This bag of rice weighs about 200 pounds. This was from the batch of supplies she moved during the apocalypse. Most of the grain in that batch was packed in burlap sacks, which saved her the trouble of finding other things to pack it in.
When Lin Zao came out of the grain shop, he had 50 taels of silver. The shopkeeper had never seen rice of such high quality as the rice Lin Zao provided, which was why Lin Zao was able to sell it for so much silver.
Lin Zao circled the city a few times, shaking off the people following him. He changed his clothes again, reverting to his original appearance, and headed towards the brokerage firm he had inquired about beforehand.
