You Won’t Die If You Don’t Seek Death “They say we should fear not a godlike opponent, but a pig like teammate who adds to the trouble!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look at Miss Du: she can’t help in the least, and she’s only causing trouble!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, you’re too young, what do you know about medicine?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can’t just stand by and watch you mess up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m going to town to get the doctor,” Du Fuling declared, heading for the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu thought to herself, you’d better get lost, then I can finally save someone in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Du Fuling was not completely foolish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped in her tracks and turned to the coachman who was helping in the room: “You go to town to get the doctor; I’m staying here to keep an eye on her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fuling, stop the nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I trust Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, what decent doctors are there in this small town?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just stop causing trouble,” Du Zhongshu weakly protested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had Bai Ruozhu not asked him to remain silent, he would’ve scolded Du Fuling a long time ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The coachman can’t leave; I have tasks for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Zhong’s poisoning will reach his Heart Meridian within 15 minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we let this happen, even a Divine Doctor won’t be able to save him,” Bai Ruozhu calmly replied with a huff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No sooner had she finished speaking than Du Zhongshu vomited a mouthful of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the coachman was now panicking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pleaded, “Miss, please let Miss Bai start the treatment, or it’ll be too late.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zepei also began to worry about the well-being of Du Zhongshu, his fellow disciple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He told the coachman, “Take your Miss out for a break.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t bother the doctor while she’s treating him!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Zhongshu nodded slightly, and the coachman had a gloomy look on his face as he escorted Du Fuling outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu took her chance to approach, opened Du Zhongshu’s shirt, and revealed his slim torso.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s a distinction between men and women, have you no shame?” Du Fuling seemed to have realized something, “Oh, I see, you want to marry into our Du Family!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dream on, someone of your status wouldn’t even be worthy enough to be his concubine!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having already begun her needle procedure, Bai Ruozhu couldn’t divert her attention to pay her any mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Zhongshu, unable to speak because of the needle, wanted to reprimand his sister, but he could only glare at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Du Fuling simply didn’t get the hint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zepei wouldn’t allow anyone to insult his sister that way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave Du Fuling a cold glare and ordered firmly, “Get out, don’t make me say it twice!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to suppress a shudder, Du Fuling wondered why the seemingly gentle Scholar Bai looked so intimidating now, making her want to hide away in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured, my sister has no interest in your Du family, and she certainly won’t become anyone’s concubine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll let this go this time because I respect Brother Du, but if you continue your disrespectful remarks, don’t blame me for being unfriendly,” Bai Zepei’s voice was chillingly cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he spoke softly to avoid startling Dengdeng, who he was holding, his authority was enough to intimidate Du Fuling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a few steps back in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, a servant arrived with a large bag of medicinal materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of breath and dripping with sweat, he reported, “The herbs have arrived.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Bai Ruzhu finished the needle procedure, she took the bag of herbs, checked each kind, and after ensuring everything was correct, threw all the materials into a large bathtub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She ordered people to heat it with water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the herbs were soaked in warm water, they released a strong medicinal scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zepei, take Dengdeng out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s too young to be inhaling these fumes,” Bai Ruozhu instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zepei nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave Du Fuling a glare, carried Dengdeng, and walked outside of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t go too far, still keeping a close eye on the situation inside the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the water seemed sufficient, Bai Ruozhu removed the silver needles from Du Zhongshu’s chest one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then ordered the coachman and the servant, “Help your Master undress and get him into the bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Make sure he sits cross-legged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he can’t sit still, you must hold him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she walked towards the door, she added, “There should be enough water just over his shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there’s too much, scoop some out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there’s not enough, add more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stir it once you’ve added water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Call me when it’s done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servant promptly acknowledged her instructions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Bai Ruozhu closed the room door behind her, the servant and coachmen began removing Du Zhongshu’s clothes without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Fuling too followed them out of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite him being her brother, both were not children anymore, so propriety dictated she leave the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you trying to cook my brother alive?” Du Fuling wanted to vent her frustrations on Bai Ruozhu seeing the heated preparations in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu didn’t deign to look at her, lest she reduce her own intelligence by association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this made Du Fuling feel as though she was hitting a cotton wall, thereby causing more frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you deaf?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m asking you!” Du Fuling raised her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu glanced at her lazily and commented, “Can’t you see I’m resting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your brother’s poisoning isn’t cured yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you sure you want to disturb me and stop me from detoxifying him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Bai Ruozhu had a seemingly enlightened expression on her face, “Oh, now I get it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You must be the one who poisoned him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why you keep hindering me from detoxifying him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh no, are you planning to kill me now to destroy the evidence?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zepei almost laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sister was trying to infuriate Du Fuling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it really was Du Fuling’s doing, Bai Ruozhu wouldn’t dare say it so plainly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True enough, Du Fuling’s face turned purplish-red as she retorted, “What nonsense are you spouting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s my biological brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would I harm him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu curled her lips in disapproval, “In these wealthy families, siblings killing each other for money and power isn’t uncommon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knows what you’re up to?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I advise you not to cause any trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people inside have all heard it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you kill me, someone else will know about your misdeeds.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Infuriated, Du Fuling began to stamp her foot, yelling, “Shut up, I didn’t do anything!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll teach you a lesson you won’t forget!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she lunged at Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu had learned some self-defence moves in her past life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she couldn’t even dodge an unarmed woman, what was the use of her training?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She merely sidestepped, but her withdrawal was slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Du Fuling charged forward, she conveniently tripped over Bai’s foot and with a scream, she landed flat on her face, in what could only be described as a ‘five points prostration.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zepei standing at the side had the corner of his lips twitch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were on the second floor, and the impact had made the entire floor shudder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That fall was harsh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu held back her laughter and pretended to be in agony, shouting, “Ouch, my leg!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Du, were you trying to break my leg to prevent me from treating your brother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no response from Du Fuling who was lying on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, she let out a cried and started sobbing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she finally lifted her head, her face was bloodied and her nose was bruised and bleeding so much that her hand could not stop it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu couldn’t help but laugh quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her nose broken, how much more could she say now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Fuling, covering her nose, continued crying while spitting out some blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with the blood came something white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that, Bai Ruozhu finally broke into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>",1348,"2026-05-30T14:08:51.305Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","2afe561b990eb280cd4c2ee3e77d5fa08265b9b681b9abc194b7f9b3984ce249","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-409","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-407",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
