Chapter 93 Why are you still thinking about others?
The weather is fine. If we set out now without delay, we can enter the county before the curfew.
Yu Tingwan calculated the time and walked hurriedly on the way back.
Hui Niang had been waiting for a long time. After packing everything, she went to guard Wei Zhao. Seeing the girl coming in, she hurried to greet her.
"Is it going well?"
She had just learned from the store owner that it would be difficult to apply for a travel permit, so she was always uneasy.
Yu Tingwan took out the travel permit and shook it: "It's all done."
There was no outsider in the room, Hui Niang handed the purse in her arms to the girl.
"This is the only money in our family. I took it all out this time. You keep it. Applying for a travel permit, eating, and staying in an inn all cost money, and we can't let you pay. The betrothal gift given to you before was for you, and you should keep it for yourself. Although the money here is not much, I am old and worried, so I'd better put it with you for peace of mind."
The purse was full of Hui Niang's body temperature.
I'm afraid she has been holding it in her arms for the past few days and dared not leave it.
I gave her all my savings.
Yu Tingwan felt mixed emotions.
"We don't lack money, and the herbs..."
Hui Niang said angrily: "Haven't they been sold yet? It's hard to say how much they can be sold for, I'm afraid the pharmacy will lower the price. Besides, there are expenses on the road."
Hearing this, Yu Tingwan didn't act pretentiously and hid carefully.
After all, there are many thieves outside.
At this moment, there was a loud noise.
It was the sound of porcelain falling to the ground at the opposite door, followed by the woman's shrill voice.
"I'm doing housework at home and raising children, but I haven't seen you being considerate. I thought you were always reserved, but it turns out that you're spending all your attention on other bitches!"
"If someone hadn't told me that they saw you in the inn, I wouldn't believe it!"
"What did you tell me? You said you went out to discuss business!"
"On the bed in the inn, discussing business with someone else's wife?"
"You spend money on her, buy her bracelets and gold chains, it's interesting! Who gave you the courage? Ah! Don't forget that you are a son-in-law!"
Yu Tingwan sighed.
Before the people watching the show gathered around, she and Hui Niang helped Wei Zhao up from the couch and walked out.
Although she only heard a few words, the interesting Yu Tingwan had a lot of experience.
After settling Wei Zhao on the ox cart, she handed the sleeve arrow to him for a look, stuffed the wild flowers she had just picked up by the roadside into his arms, and went to the front to drive the horses with Hui Niang.
The girl's mind is very simple.
She is willing to spend money on Wei Shen. She
can't afford a bracelet or a gold chain.
But wild flowers are free!
She can even send them every day!
The wheels rolled forward again.
Wei Zhao drooped his eyelids and looked at the sleeve arrow first.
You don't even need to look at it, you can tell that this thing is made with care as soon as you touch it.
It's suitable for her.
Yue Shan was curious: "Uncle Shen, what is this?"
Wei Zhao didn't even look at him: "Want to know?"
Yue Shan nodded heavily.
Wei Zhao threw the sleeve arrow aside and stared at the wild flowers in his hand.
The girl picked it too hard, and the petals were ravaged, leaving only a few broken limbs and debris.
There is no beauty at all.
How can she be so embarrassed to give it to someone else?
Wei Zhao sneered.
He glanced at Yue Shan.
"Want it?"
Yue Shan stared at the sleeve arrow, a little shy: "Can... can I?"
Wei Zhao: "What do you think?"
He rubbed the wild flower with his fingertips, very good, and another petal fell.
Wei Zhao frowned and said in a bad tone: "If you want it, ask your wife to give it to you."
He said faintly: "Why are you still thinking about someone else's?"
Yue Shan: ???
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Zhao seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at the street corner in the distance.
Just now, someone looked over here.
But now there is no one there.

"I told you, you saw it wrong. How could the stepmother come to town?"
Hu Dalang just pulled Hu Yaozu away. The
two of them were mixed in the crowd.
"I took a quick look too. The girl was so dark. Her profile was indeed similar to the stepmother, but the stepmother was so white."
Hu Dalang glanced at the distraught Hu Yaozu.
"If you ask me, you just miss her too much. That's why you think it's her no matter who you see."
Over the years, Yaozu has been in love with Yu Tingwan. How could he, as a brother, not see it?
Hu Dalang joked: "I guess the mountain road will be unblocked tomorrow, and we can go back. It will relieve your homesickness."
Hu Yaozu's face was not as red as usual.
He was still wearing the student uniform, clean and refreshing, and full of bookish air. He
was a little worried at the moment.
After the New Year's Eve dinner at Master Zizai's house, he began to feel abnormal.
Hu Yaozu pursed his lips, his thoughts were confused.
At the dinner table that day, the teacher said many heartfelt words.
He said that he was kind-hearted and had a talent for studying, and he would achieve something in the future.
He said that among a group of students, he valued him the most.
He asked him if he was married. He
also mentioned that there was a daughter in his family who was waiting to be married.
The teacher wanted to recruit him as a son-in-law.
Hu Yaozu was confused. He did not agree or refuse. He just vaguely said that he had to ask his parents first.
He was not a pedantic person.
How could he not know that if he agreed to the marriage, his father-in-law would help him in the future, and his life would be smoother?
He had to deny it, and he was shocked but also a little happy.
But, he had his stepmother in his heart.
He had been thinking about her for so many years, how could he be willing to let her go?
Hu Yaozu suddenly stopped.
There was a thought in his mind that broke out horribly and darkly.
He... couldn't he have both?

It was dark, and several people entered the county before the curfew. They were not in a hurry to find an inn, but went straight to the largest clinic in the county.
Lanterns were hung outside the clinic, and the inside was brightly lit.
Unlike the deserted clinics in the town, it was crowded.
Hui Niang looked at the crowd and worried: "With so many people, I don't know when it will be our turn."
Yu Tingwan didn't think so much.
"There are so many people, it shows that the doctors inside are good at medicine, which is a good thing for us."
Hui Niang's eyes lit up: "Yes, that makes sense."
Yu Tingwan jumped off the carriage and prepared to squeeze in to ask.
But before she could go in, a medicine boy sent a patient out, and by the way, he saw Wei Zhao, who was listless on the ox cart. As
soon as he saw his face, the medicine boy secretly thought it was not good.
The medicine boy said to Yu Tingwan: "But unfortunately, there are only two doctors sitting in at night today, and I don't know when they will be busy. It's cold outside. Pull the ox cart and follow me into the back door into the yard. There are compartments for patients to rest there. You can follow me to rest first."
As soon as the few people left, they heard the sound of horse hooves coming from afar, and finally stopped in front of the clinic.
Rong Di jumped down first and urged: "Hurry up, I'm waiting for you to save my life."
The military doctor on horseback, carrying a medicine box, looked gloomy and glanced at the clinic.
He was on his way to Ze County with the general's coffin. He was sighing about the impermanence of the world with the deputy general Chi Yu. When he turned around, Rong Di, who came out of nowhere, grabbed his horse.
His tone was very cold.
"Rong Di, don't think that you can talk back to me just because you have the favor of Wei Zhao!"
"When Wei Zhao was studying medicine, I hit him on the head with a ruler!"
"I dared to deal with him, so how can I not deal with you!"
