Leads to Sickness After a while, the old man finally sighed and said, “After all, you are young and promising.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Again, he fell into silence, making the atmosphere in the room extremely awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a sad gleam in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with his greying hair, he looked particularly forlorn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu felt like the old man really had calmed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, he surely would have insisted that this opportunity to study at the North Beiyu Study Palace should belong to his eldest son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would have blamed Bai Zepei for being selfish, not yielding to Bai’s eldest uncle, and so on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he can no longer make such complaints now; his eldest son can never take the Imperial Examination in his lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the old man has truly sobered up a bit, or perhaps he has just resigned to his fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can go if you want to, I can’t control you anymore,” the old man said after a while, his tone carrying a hint of spite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong looked quite upset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a feeling of guilt and reluctance in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was afraid that his father might get stubborn and try to save Bai Yibo, which could translate to a capital offense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Lu didn’t join them in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood outside and said, “If you’re leaving, have dinner tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll prepare it for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone who had a good relationship with Bai was proposing to have a meal with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a good thing, but there were too many people, which became a worry instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong quickly said, “Zehao’s in-laws have already asked us first, can we come over and eat tomorrow night?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, then it’s settled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come over earlier in the afternoon tomorrow, and don’t bring anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have everything here!” Bai Lu said as he patted Bai Yihong’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this interruption, Bai Yihong and his family stepped out of the old man’s room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man didn’t pay attention to them anymore and started reading on his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone bowed to the old man before leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Fu was always cold and seemed to be reading a book, but Bai Ruozhu noticed that he had glanced in this direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon returning to the Mountain Village, Bai Ruozhu and her family enjoyed a good meal at Wan’s family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The food was abundantly delicious, almost as lavish as the dishes at a wedding banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Bai family from the second house feel quite embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu was thinking about giving more gifts to the Wan’s family when sending New Year presents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, the two families chatted for a while before Bai’s family got up to leave and meet up with Zhou Deshun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then it was already dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yihong, Zhou Deshun, and Bai Yizhong were drinking in the Main Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zepei, Bai Zehao, and Bai Zeji, the three brothers, went to the room where Bai Zepei used to live to chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The women gathered in Bai Ruozhu’s room to chat, anyway, they didn’t plan to rush back to town that night, so they let their old men drink a few more glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yihong, I’m afraid we brothers won’t have many chances to be together like this in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t know when we can gather again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You won’t be rushing back for the New Year, will you?” Zhou Deshun was quite drunk, his speech slightly slurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, there will always be opportunities in the future.” Bai Yihong didn’t share Zhou Deshun’s sentimentality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of something his daughter had said, he saw a brighter future, even anticipating their two families gathering together again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as nothing was definite yet, it wouldn’t be good to speak too soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the women’s room, they were having a playful chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ruozhu’s mother, you are really lucky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both your sons and your daughter are so outstanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only my son Zhou Chuang could be as steady as Zehao, then I would be more at ease.” Somehow the topic ended up on the topic of children, and Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law could not help but worry for her eldest son Zhou Chuang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the busy farming season, Zhou Chuang had helped Bai Ruozhu’s family with the harvest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu remembered him as not being too old, but also very energetic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never thought that he was not steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhou Chuang is capable and hardworking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was really efficient last time when he helped our family with the harvest.” Lin Ping’er agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law quickly shook her head, “You can’t just look at the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When asked to buy something, he always forgets something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time, I asked him to pass a message to his grandparents, he did go, but he only delivered half of the message and forgot the rest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu didn’t immediately respond, wondering to herself whether he did not take things to heart or if it’s a memory problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memory of young people is generally better, and often only declines with age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this is not without exceptions, but these are often due to physical diseases or conditions in the brain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it’s the former, and she’s just overthinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bai Ruozhu still suggested, “Auntie, how about calling Zhou Chuang to come over and I’ll feel his pulse?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law was startled and asked nervously, “Does this mean he has a disease?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu hurriedly said, “Don’t overthink it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, if the body’s nutrition is not correct, it will be like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some treatment will take care of it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law didn’t quite understand what ‘the body’s nutrition is not correct’ meant, but she thought it would be reassuring to let Bai Ruozhu have a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She immediately jumped off the kang, and in her shoes, she hurriedly went out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ping’er scowled at Bai Ruozhu, “See, you scared your aunt Zhou.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If there’s nothing wrong, then she can be completely relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if there is something wrong, it can’t be delayed.” Bai Ruozhu was quite helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was she supposed to pretend she didn’t know what could be wrong with Zhou Chuang?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, Zhou Chuang was dragged in by his mother, but he didn’t go into Bai Ruozhu’s room, but into the Main Hall for Bai Ruozhu to take his pulse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun, being quite drunk, saw Zhou Chuang and said, “Did you come here to scrounge up some drinks?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go to bed quickly, you have to work in the field tomorrow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Chuang shrank his neck and said, “I was brought here by my mother.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law had no heart to explain to Zhou Deshun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned to Bai Ruozhu and said, “You don’t bother about them, have a look at my son Zhou Chuang as soon as possible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu nodded, came over, and grabbed Zhou Chuang’s wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Chuang subconsciously wanted to pull his hand away, but was held by his mother, who scolded, “Stay still, don’t interfere with your Sister Ruozhu’s pulse diagnosis.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Chuang was still clueless about what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was fine, so why was Sister Ruozhu checking his pulse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t like he was a woman who was pregnant and needed a doctor to confirm with a pulse diagnosis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu held Zhou Chuang’s wrist for a long time without speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, she let go and asked, “Do you have any headaches?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, do you get headaches if you rest late?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or do you feel dizzy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Chuang shook his head, “No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu nodded and asked again, “Is there anything abnormal about your body?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, I’m really in good shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why do you want to look after me?” Zhou Chuang couldn’t hold it in anymore and asked directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law suddenly said, “He has bumps on his back, does that count?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll have to see it,” Bai Ruozhu said, frowning a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By this time, Bai Yihong and Zhou Deshun had stopped drinking and were watching what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They probably guessed that Zhou Chuang had some health problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun’s drunkenness had sobered up significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Deshun’s daughter-in-law was anxious too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pulled her son’s clothes down, revealing the lower half of Zhou Chuang’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the middle of this cold winter, Zhou Chuang shivered from the sudden chill and muttered, “Mother, these are just wind bumps, what could they be?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1414,"2026-05-30T14:08:51.304Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","98355020f6fb0f6b1dc0680cbfec14e8dd0b04ce1d460682c5a2d80a03187659","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-452","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-250",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
