Meng Nan folded his hands and greeted the Country Magistrate’s wife: “Furen, this lowly official was originally planning to go to the Huangtou Village with Bai Zhi to solve this case. Then, we met your maidservant that was looking for a doctor. Bai Zhi is a warm-hearted person. As soon as she learned Xiao Gongzi had an accident, she immediately rushed over.”
The Country Magistrate’s wife nodded her head. So, that was the case, no wonder the little girl came so fast. Fortunately, she came so fast, otherwise, her son will be in a great danger.
The Country Magistrate’s wife turned her head to the maidservant beside her and said: “You go and take out 100 silver coins, I will give it to Bai Zhi as a reward.”
Bai Zhi busily opened her mouth: “Furen, this ordinary girl only used a bit of her skill, I don’t dare to accept such a tremendous gift.”
Seeing her calm and sincere, the Country Magistrate’s wife was even more pleased. She smiled and said to Bai Zhi: “It might only be a bit of skill to you, but for me, it is a life-saving grace. ”
Meng Nan also opened his mouth and said: “What Furen said is right, compared to 100 silver coins, what is Xiao Gongzi’s life? Do you want Furen to owe you one, that’s why you don’t want to accept it?”
Bai Zhi smiled, this Meng Nan was a strange person. He and she doesn’t know each other, but they know how to support each other’s words.
“Then, this ordinary girl will not be polite and accept.”
The Country Magistrate’s wife nodded her head and told to the other maidservant around her: “Prepare a carriage, send Bai Zhi back to her home.”
This was what Bai Zhi exactly wants. Riding an oxcart takes too much time. People like Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei will surely ride a horse. If she went back with the use of an oxcart, she won’t be able to catch up with them.
“Thank you, Furen. This ordinary girl will now say goodbye.” Bai Zhi’s heart was getting a bit anxious. At this hour, the Bai Family must have gone to the Hu Family. She hasn’t returned. Zhao Lan must be being humiliated by them. Zhao Lan has a good heart. With that kind of personality, she will only suffer more and more to the likes of Bai Family.

The carriage of the government official was very different to ordinary people. It was spacious, comfortable and beautifully decorated.
This was the first time Bai Zhi ride an ancient carriage in her entire life, so she was really looking forward to it.
After stepping in the footstool that the coachman has prepared, Bai Zhi sat down her butt in the couch and opened the closed curtain. After the sunlight swept inside, a strong scent of sandalwood entered her nose. She doesn’t need to ask who it’s coming from.
This guy, his face is rotting, if he doesn’t use any sandalwood to hide the scent, who will dare to be with him?
However, even if that was the case, Bai Zhi can still smell his rotting flesh.
“Isn’t daren going to ride a horse?” Bai Zhi asked Meng Nan, who was sitting opposite of her.
Meng Nan pointed his finger to his own face: “My face is hurt, the wind will only make it more painful.”
Meng Nan stared at Bai Zhi, then said: “Who is your master?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “I don’t have a master, I only studied by myself, that’s why I said I cannot be considered as a doctor. I only know a little. If Daren believes me, I can write you a prescription, then you can try it. But if you don’t, I just hope you get well soon.”
Meng Nan didn’t say he doesn’t believe her. He only looked at her with a smile. He didn’t say a single word.

The speed of the carriage was many times faster than of the oxcart. In less than an hour, the carriage has arrived outside the Huangtou Village.
Jin Shiwei was riding a horse in the front, behind him there were two public servants, and followed by the carriage. Their momentum was not small, especially to a place like Huangtou Village. Their arrival was particularly very eye-catching.
The two public servants were wearing their uniforms and there were swords on their waist. Their facial expression looked very serious. So, when the ordinary people saw them, they couldn’t help but took a step back.
