Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Going Wild with Alcohol in the Middle of the Night “Huh?” Fang Guizhi was caught off guard again, “Pranking someone, are you joking with me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu winked at her and said, “Guess!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s there to guess, stop keeping me in suspense.” Fang Guizhi began shaking Bai Ruozhu’s arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu didn’t wish to keep it from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi was a trustworthy friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bai Ruozhu did not want to implicate Fang Guizhi in any mischief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she just smiled and said, “You’ll know when the time comes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, just sell the wine to the Old Wine House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remember to ask them to keep it a secret, or we won’t sell them the good stuff anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m sure they will cooperate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Getting nothing out of Bai Ruozhu, Fang Guizhi simply wrapped the wine in a bundle and headed straight for the Old Wine House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two jars of wine were actually concocted by Bai Ruozhu before giving birth because she was concerned about sterilization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, considering the alcohol content of the present wines was too low, she made some high-alcohol-content wines in her space, and there was still some left unused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for whether this thing would work, it all boiled down to luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi took the wine to the Old Wine House as instructed by Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Old Wine House, reputed for its generations of winemaking in Back Mountain Village, was renowned enough that people from nearby villages came to buy wine from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were indeed as fair and honest as Bai Ruozhu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the owner smelled the wine brought by Fang Guizhi, he became excited instantly, asking Fang Guizhi where the wine came from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scared by the owner’s reaction, Fang Guizhi had no choice but to lie hard, “I went to the market in the town and exchanged this with a traveling merchant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought I could make some silver by selling it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The owner didn’t ask any more questions but offered her two hundred Wen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi was secretly pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such small jars of wine usually only cost about twenty something Wen when she bought them for her father from the Old Wine House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi hid her copper coins and went back to find Bai Ruozhu gleefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On her way, she saw Bai Yibo, who was heading towards the Old Wine House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of a sudden, Fang Guizhi felt a chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu said she was going to play a prank on someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that she had precisely calculated that Bai Yibo would go buy some wine, and she’d added something to the wine?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh my, that would mean jail time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hastened her pace to persuade Bai Ruozhu not to act rashly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t worth getting into trouble with the officials due to such people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she found Bai Ruozhu, she closed the room door and started to plead with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Bai Ruozhu burst into laughter, reached out her slender finger to poke Fang Guizhi’s forehead, and said crossly, “Silly girl, if I were really plotting something that would lead to potential legal trouble, would I involve you in it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi, after pondering for a while, found this to be true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu would never put her in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Bai Ruozhu’s beaming face at the moment, could it be that she was overthinking?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be just a richer wine?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No additives?” Fang Guizhi blinked her eyes and asked Bai Ruozhu closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu was laughing so hard that her stomach started to hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nodded vigorously, saying, “Yes, it’s just good wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re overthinking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, how does that prank someone?” Fang Guizhi scratched her head in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was finding it more and more difficult to understand Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they were of similar age, how was Bai Ruozhu suddenly so much smarter than her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it really be that having a baby made a difference?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A master stroke is mischief that abides by the law.” Bai Ruozhu winked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not keeping it from you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m just not sure if it will work yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it does, you will naturally know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite asking for a long time, Fang Guizhi received no information from Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was left burning with curiosity and had no choice but to return home frustrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, she got up early, eager to see if anything Bai Ruozhu mentioned had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In particular, she wandered near the Bai Family’s old mansion and found that even before she got there, several people on the road were quietly discussing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s face was either full of contempt or schadenfreude, which clearly indicated that something had indeed transpired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi was thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had Bai Ruozhu’s mischief been successful?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could she really predict things with such precision?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie, what happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s going on?” She spotted three women chatting together and approached them to inquire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, Guizhi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why don’t you go see for yourself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re close with Ruozhu, you could also inform her in case she doesn’t know.” One of the women burst into laughter after speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, it really happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emotionally bidding the three women goodbye, she hastened her steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before she even reached the Bai Family’s old mansion, she noticed some words, seemingly written in ink, on the fence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had learned some characters from Bai Ruozhu before, but not many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These scribbles were too messy, making them look like Ghost-Drawn Talismans to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were hardly a few people in the village with literacy skills and even fewer who used inkbrushes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, it was evident who committed this deed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She struggled to distinguish the words for a while and managed to discern “Die” and it appeared there was also a “You”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t identify the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she reached the Bai Family’s old mansion, the courtyard door was tightly closed, and a crowd had gathered outside for onlookers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was eerily quiet inside the yard until the voice of the Bai family’s old lady broke out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bai!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re good for nothing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t even know when your own husband is in trouble, all you know is eating and sleeping!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the voice of Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang, “Mother, why are you yelling?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you think it’s shameful enough?” Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang sounded very upset because she felt wronged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She called Bai Yibo to bed last night, but he scolded her harshly before going out to the yard to drink wine and moon-watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He claimed that it was something refined men do, and a woman like her wouldn’t understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang felt like she had no control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With even the old master not bothered, what could she do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she went to bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little did she know, an incident would occur at home the next morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything fell silent again inside the courtyard of the Bai family’s old mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi, unable to make sense of the situation, couldn’t help but whisper to an old woman standing next to her, “Old lady, what’s going on?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman, her face flushed with excitement, said, “Oh dear, don’t you know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Scholar of the Bai family got drunk last night and ran all over the main street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only when the villagers went to work in the morning that they saw him lying by the roadside, fast asleep, with a brush still in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the one who wrote all those characters on the fences.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did he write?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I couldn’t understand.” Although Fang Guizhi’s mind was reeling, she managed to maintain a calm exterior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How would I know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the villagers who could read said those were rude words, even telling his younger brother’s family to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The younger brother is his own sibling, isn’t he?” The old woman spoke disdainfully, “This so-called Scholar is cursing his own brother behind his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t he just jealous that his nephew topped the exam?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi nodded quickly, “Exactly, it doesn’t bother him if someone else comes first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of improving himself, all he does is blame others for being better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed, indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that’s all he can do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he wouldn’t be failing the examination for so many years.” The old woman chuckled softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Guizhi said goodbye to the old woman and headed for Bai Ruozhu’s house, giddy with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought she probably had it figured out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu had used one jar of wine to expose Bai Yibo’s true self.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how could she have been so accurate about it?\u003C\u002Fp>",1446,"2026-05-30T14:08:51.304Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","3e0766cfc34e895341b24fce6de03ae27ca0d8b122e81f4bb9167f140ce0e6fc","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-120","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-118",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
