Lu Jiao thanked him and went home to cook breakfast. Breakfast was simple, porridge with egg pancakes. Lu Jiao cut up some cucumbers to go with the egg pancakes.

The four little ones were a fan of eating egg pancakes this way and complimented the food.

After breakfast, Xie Tieniu’s oxcart arrived.

Lu Jiao asked Xie Xiaobao to take care of the dogs, sheep, and rabbits. In exchange, she promised him good food once she returns.

Xie Xiaobao slapped his own chest to show confidence.

Lu Jiao also packed some eggs and vegetables with her. The 40 to 50 pounds baby boar plus eggs and vegetables were a generous gift.

The oxcart headed to the Apricot Flower Village.

On the way there, the four little ones asked Lu Jiao about the toothbrushes, “Mommy, weren’t you going to make toothbrushes? How come you didn’t?”

Lu Jiao explained, “I plan on using the boar’s bones and fur. I’ve cut off the fur but the bones will have to wait until we are done eating tonight.”

The four little ones stared, “How do you make toothbrushes with a bone?”

Lu Jiao explained, “You sharpen the bones into a handle. At the top of the handle will be lots of holes where the pig fur will go to. Then a toothbrush is made. You’ll know what I mean once you see one.”

Lu Jiao described the most basic form of a toothbrush. That was as good as it got in this era.

The four little ones were excited, “Then we’ll make one when we get back.”

Lu Jiao agreed, “Sure!”

The mother and sons chatted happily. At the front, Xie Tieniu couldn’t help but exclaim, “Third aunt, you know a lot.”

Lu Jiao waved around her hand, “Not that much.”

On the side, sat Xie Yunjin. He was leaning against the cart, making everyone think he was taking a nap. In reality, he was emotionlessly studying Lu Jiao.

This woman’s beautiful face was all smiles. Every movement she made carried much grace and elegance, practically forcing him to observe her.

Sadly, this flower-like woman was truly ruthless.

The memory of how unhesitant this woman was about their separation made Xie Yunjin close his eyes in depression.

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t understand it. This woman knew how hard life would be for divorced women yet she still persisted in doing it. This meant she would much rather deal with the hardships than stay by his side. Was he that bad of a man?

Many times, Xie Yunjin lost all his self-esteem.

At the same time, he was also aware of the fact that this woman was not the woman he once knew. He simply didn’t know her thought processes.

Xie Yunjin comforted himself again and again. Oh well, if she was so determined to leave, he’ll let her.

The oxcart made its way to the Apricot Flower Village.

In the beginning, the four little ones talked to Lu Jiao with excitement. Later in the trip, the swaying of the cart made them sleepy and they fell asleep.

Lu Jiao also shut her eyes to rest until the oxcart pulled into the Apricot Flower Village.

Before they arrived at the Lu family home, other villagers stopped the cart. The people getting in their way were the grandma and grandpa who once visited Lu Jiao to get her medical opinion.

“Ah, isn’t this the miraculous doctor? How come the miraculous doctor managed to find time to visit our poor little village? This village doesn’t dare to welcome a character as high up as the miraculous doctor.”

On the cart, Lu Jiao and the four little ones were startled awake. They darted their gaze toward the people talking.

Lu Jiao recognized them.

The woman was spitting around and gesturing dramatically to talk trash about Lu Jiao to those around her.

“You have no idea what a scam she is! She’s not a miraculous doctor, she’s a con artist! Others may not know, but we know her true colors! She’s lazy, fat, and seduces men. How dare she pretend to be a doctor!”

“Everyone’s been lied to! Today, I’m going to reveal to everyone her real self!”

Lu Jiao started to feel cold and was about to jump out of the cart. The four little ones, however, were already shouting angrily, “You’re a bad person! My mommy never lied to anybody! She’s a great doctor!”

“Yeah, my mommy cured many people! Everyone knows how good she is!”

“You’re the scam! How shameless!”

The old woman who heard the four little ones’ words pointed at the children and cursed, “The old one is a scam, the little ones are a scam too! Nobody from that family is good!”

Lu Jiao jumped out of the oxcart and pulled over the old woman. Coldly, she snapped, “Try and curse another word at me. I will sew your lips together with needles.”

The woman was so shocked by Lu Jiao’s reaction, she didn’t know what to do.

Xie Yunjin also got out of the oxcart then. He stepped in front of the old woman and looked down at her, “You think cursing at others is not a crime? Cursing provokes people. If you are sent to the government, you would be asked to slap yourself as a punishment.”

The Apricot Flower Villagers were stunned by both Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin. Some of these villagers were once helped by Lu Jiao’s medical knowledge. They stepped out to scold the grandma, “Your mouth sure is stinky. Why would you curse at them?”

“You’ve always stirred up trouble. It’s a bad habit. If you don’t improve, you’ll get in trouble.”

As everyone discussed, Lady Tian, Lu Danian, and her two daughters-in-law arrived. She was cleaning at home when someone told her that Lady Lin was cursing at her daughter and son-in-law.

Lady Tian immediately brought people with her to the scene. When she saw that Lady Lin was speaking poorly of her daughter, she lost it.

Lady Tian jumped onto Lady Lin, “You b!tch! You bastard! You moron! You dare to take advantage of my daughter and son-in-law?! Are you seeking death?!”

Lady Tian was tall and large while Lady Lin was short. She ended up getting beat up on the ground.

Before, they ran to the Xie Village to ask Lu Jiao for a consultation because she did it for free. If Lu Jiao charged patients, they never would’ve gone.

Who knew Lu Jiao would kick them out without taking a look? Lady Lin was angry and upon returning home, spread the rumor that Lu Jiao was a scam. Lady Tian ended up bringing some people to beat her up. Lady Lin obviously didn’t learn.

After the fight, Lady Tian pushed Lady Lin’s face into the ground, “If you dare to talk trash about my daughter again, I will tear your mouth into pieces! Try to talk then!”

Lady Lin struggled but she was far too weak. She ended up screaming, “Someone’s killing me! Help!”

Lu Jiao went to pull up her mother. She didn’t want to cause trouble the moment she arrived, “Mom, it’s okay. Let’s not spend energy on her. She’s just a rabid dog.”

Abruptly, Lu Jiao snapped her head towards Lady Lin, “If a rabid dog bites around, we can beat it to death.”
