Abandoned Woman Busy Farming-Chapter 1539: Not Just One Bottle of Medicine_1

Bai Ruozhu hid in the Space, but she didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless. She wasn’t afraid the other person had come to assassinate her, but she was afraid they had come to slander her, and this slander certainly couldn’t be ignored.

Soon, the person stopped by Bai Ruozhu’s window and didn’t move further, not even entering the room to check on Bai’s condition, but began digging at the ground beneath her window with light and stealthy movements.

A few minutes later, the person quietly left.

Bai Ruozhu guessed that the other party had hidden something beneath her window. This simple method was strangely effective at framing her by setting up physical evidence. Even though she could say that she would never hide things under her window, if Liu Fei adamantly accused her and refused to let go, it would be very difficult for her to clear her name.

With that in mind, she patiently waited for another half an hour, making sure it was safe outside, before she quietly jumped out the window and dug up a small medicine bottle from the ground.

The moment she touched the bottle, she knew that regardless of what it contained, the outside was smeared with poison. She casually tossed the bottle into the Space and then quickly buried a bottle of qi-replenishing pills in its place.

Back in her room, only then did she enter the Space to closely inspect the medicine bottle, which indeed contained poison related to the one that Liu Xiyu had suffered from. However, she had never seen this type of poison before, so she carefully began to study it.

She took out several herbs and extracted a small drop of the poison. After toiling the whole night, she finally figured out the components of the poison.

Knowing the components, was antidote a problem anymore? A mischievous smile curved at the corner of her mouth. She enjoyed deciphering the components of poisons, but who said she was going to cure Liu Xiyu?

Having not slept all night, she was somewhat tired. Seeing that the sun had already risen outside, she hurriedly went back into the Hot Spring Pool to soak for a while, to feel refreshed and clear-headed.

Just after she left the Space, it wasn’t long before there came Hao Mu’s knock on her door.

"Miss Bai, are you awake? Should I send in some hot water for you?" Hao Mu asked in a gentle voice.

"Good," Bai Ruozhu feigned the tone of someone who had just woken up.

Soon, Hao Mu entered with servants carrying water and towels for washing. While assisting Bai Ruozhu with a wet towel, she suddenly said, "Let’s add an ice basin later on, Miss Bai’s hair is all damp from sweat."

Bai Ruozhu quickly touched her hair. She had been particularly careful to tie up her hair when soaking in the hot spring, but a few strands had slipped out. Thankfully, Hao Mu mistook it for being damp with sweat...

"Thank you very much," she said with a smile of gratitude.

After having breakfast, Fen Wan unexpectedly came to find her, looking at her with a face of grievance and said, "I don’t believe what others say, but do you truly think I am an old woman who has given birth to two children?"

Bai Ruozhu’s mouth twitched. She didn’t want to tell Fen Wan this either, because Fen Wan looked like nothing more than a young girl from any angle, but she also didn’t want to lie.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Ruozhu spoke solemnly, "Fen Wan, technically speaking, I should be calling you my senior. Whether you can accept it or not, you are indeed the biological mother of Chu Hai and Diao Yao. Even if you don’t remember anything, that is an undeniable fact. Your body, due to poisoning, luckily survived and was transformed as though you were reborn. Plus, with no memory of the past, it’s understandable that you can’t accept this."

"But please don’t doubt the sincerity of Hao Feng, and of Chu Hai and Diao Yao towards you. They have sacrificed too much for you. Hao Feng has never married, hiding all her life just to save you and prevent the villains from harming you. Chu Hai once poisoned himself with your blood in his quest to find a cure for you, nearly losing his life in the process. The ordeal of the detoxification was even more grueling."

Bai Ruozhu saw Fen Wan’s troubled expression and sighed before continuing, "I’m not saying all this because I want you to feel burdened or guilty. These are things they would never say themselves, but I, as an outsider, simply cannot bear to let things continue this way. You can choose to accept your former identity, or you can let yourself start a new life based on the current situation. The Reincarnation Poison has given you a rebirth, and you have the right to make the decision you want. However, I hope that no matter what you choose, you will not doubt or reject them. Otherwise, the day you remember everything, you will regret it deeply."

After a long silence, Fen Wan looked up nervously at Bai Ruozhu and asked, "Can I live like an ordinary woman? Will they accept that?"

"I believe that with their love for you, whatever decision you make, they will choose to accept. It might be difficult at first, but they will understand you better than I do," Bai Ruozhu said.

"I know Ning Yu doesn’t like me. I was mistaken before, and I don’t want to force it anymore. But I just can’t get used to Chu Hai and Diao Yao calling me ’mother’. If one day I want to get married, will they accept it?" Fen Wan asked uncertainly.

Bai Ruozhu smiled, "Even if you remember everything and choose to remarry, they won’t object as long as the person you meet is a good match. How could they not accept it?"

Fen Wan breathed a sigh of relief, awkwardly saying, "Actually, I don’t really want to get married; it’s just that being labeled with an identity feels very oppressive."

Bai Ruozhu patted her shoulder, "I understand how you feel; everything will get better."

She was different from Fen Wan, but they also had similarities. The moment she opened her eyes, she had a predecessor’s identity. She had also struggled and even felt some resistance in her heart. But later, she accepted the people around her and even more so the baby in her womb.

The knot in Fen Wan’s heart loosened, and the worry between her brows faded away, returning her to the state she was in when she first awoke.

After Bai Ruozhu cheerfully left, she went to find Ning Yu to tell her that her foolish senior brother no longer needed to be afraid and anxious.

Ning Yu was extremely happy when she heard it and admired Bai Ruozhu, saying, "Junior Sister, you really have a way!"

Bai Ruozhu smirked, raising an eyebrow, "Who am I if not someone who has been through it all?"

While they were still enjoying their pleasant conversation, a group of Royal Guards hurried over, with the Team Leader pointing at Bai Ruozhu and saying, "Are you the Chief Doctor Bai? Please come with us!"

Bai Ruozhu’s face hardened, "Who sent you? Without revealing your identities, I am not at liberty to leave Cining Palace with you."

The Team Leader raised a waist tag and said, "We are under the Empress Dowager’s secret order to investigate a case, please cooperate with us, Doctor Bai."

At that moment, Hao Mu ran over from a side path and whispered to Bai Ruozhu, "They’ve dug up a small bottle beneath your room, not sure what it is."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "No problem, we’ll find out when we go there."

But the Team Leader raised an object in his hand and said, "Not only did we find a bottle of medicine under Chief Doctor Bai’s window, but we also discovered fresh earth near the palace wall with another bottle buried in it. As for what it is, and how you will explain it, it’s best you explain to the Empress Dowager yourself. We are merely here to escort you to Liuyun Hall."
