Shen Wangxin didn't want to hide it from Auntie Shen, so she told her what had happened in the county magistrate court.

Although Auntie Shen could not read, she had never read a book for a day. However, she knew all the logic behind it. Ever since she met Shen Wangxin, she had unconditionally supported all of her decisions. Thus, the matter of treating Elder Chen was no exception.

"Since it's a matter of the county magistrate, we should help out!" Auntie Shen understood that Shen Wangxin was helping County Magistrate Liu with treating Old Chen's head, so she reminded him carefully, "Let's treat Old Chen's head properly, we can't just ignore Old Chen's head because of Zhang Cuihua, do you understand?"

Shen Wangxin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Auntie Shen had clearly misunderstood him! But looking at it from another perspective, her understanding of the situation was not wrong, so Shen Wangxin did not continue to explain further, but nodded seriously, "Third Grandmother, don't worry. If Old Chen lived in my hospital, I wouldn't do anything to ruin my own reputation. I'll definitely treat his legs! "

Shen Wangxin's confident look caused Auntie Shen to rub her head happily.

She was now as tall as Auntie Shen's shoulder. Due to long term malnutrition, the original owner had already grown to twelve years old, but the original owner still hadn't caught up to her. She was as thin and weak as a bean sprout, causing Auntie Shen to feel a pang in her heart as she decided to kill a hen at night to mend Shen Wangxin's body.

Auntie Shen sat on her little horse and plucked her chicken feathers. Shen Wangxin sat beside her, listening to her chatter while she helped her wash the vegetables. When the ingredients were ready, she went to the kitchen to help her.

Shen Wangxin's favorite dish for the evening was a spicy fried chicken. She chopped the chicken into small pieces, then chopped the ginger, garlic, and chilli. The fragrance of the chicken, the taste of the rice wine, and the spicy taste of the chili sauce filled the air with the stir-frying of the spatula.

Although the people in Xitou Village didn't usually eat spicy dishes, they rarely used chilies. However, the daily peppers produced by the Xitou Village were more spicy than normal chili peppers.

Shen Wangxin had always preferred spicy food in her previous life, and she would never be able to quit eating it. Even though tears were streaming down her face due to the kitchen spicy food, she could not stop the drool in her mouth from seeping out.

Seeing her greedy look, Auntie Shen couldn't help but pinch the flesh on her face and laugh: "Luckily there's only the old Chen Family nearby and Zhang Cuihua isn't at home. If people were to smell the meat and know that you have plenty of meat to eat every day, wouldn't they die of envy?"

Shen Wangxin was fine at first, but after Auntie Shen's reminder, she became alert. She could only blame herself for being used to living in the modern world. There was meat on the table every day, but now that she was in the Zhou Dynasty and there were many people in the village who could not even eat their fill, her eating meat every day would arouse the jealousy of others!

But she shouldn't treat him unfairly because of this.

Shen Wangxin sighed helplessly and said, "Then, how about we steal some meat from now on?"

"You …" Auntie Shen, on the other hand, was amused by her. She was helpless, "Wait till you, Third Grandpa, buy the dog for you. When you grow up, we can look after the house. We can relax a little bit. We have to be careful now!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the front yard.

Old Chen might not even have the money to treat his illness, but it's fine if he eats and drinks at their house for free. This meat that he spent money on was not something they could take advantage of!

Shen Wangxin understood what Auntie Shen meant. She wasn't generous enough to eat and drink to her heart's content. Speaking of this matter, she remembered the scene in the court when Chen Xian vomited from hunger. After all, she was a grown man who had hands and feet. If Zhang Cuihua wasn't at home, couldn't she have made porridge? To starve himself to such a state was truly amazing.

Watching the dishes being served up onto the table one by one, Shen Wangxin carried two plates of vegetables and dug up two bowls of rice. She was prepared to bring them to the front yard and deliver them to the Chen Family father and son's room.

Seeing that Shen Wangxin was about to make a move, Auntie Shen immediately stopped her and accepted the tray, "Xin, it's not like that. Since Third Grandmother has said that you should also avoid going to the front yard from now on, even though you are still young, the infirmary is not open yet. "Besides, who knows if Ah Xian is the second Hei Zi!"

Auntie Shen was still brooding over the matters between A-Lian and Hei Zi. When she ran into the mother and son pair in the village, she didn't look too happy.

Shen Wangxin knew Auntie Shen was concerned about her, so she handed the food over to her and let her eat.

A few days later, the infirmary in the front courtyard was set up step by step. It was a misty morning. The signboard that Shen Wangxin had booked a few days ago was sent to the infirmary in a carriage.

The plaque was elegantly decorated with thick, square characters with the words "Five Flavors Medicinal Building" carved onto it. Simple patterns were carved on the four sides of the plaque, and the surface was painted red. One could even see the patterns of the wood beneath it.

The person who delivered the signboard was a carpenter's two apprentices. They even helped Shen Wangxin hang the signboard. Before the clinic opened, a piece of red cloth covered the signboard. The smile on Auntie Shen's face could not fade as she allowed them to eat lunch before letting them go.

When Auntie Shen went to deliver food to Chen Family father and son, she found that Old Chen was looking for Chen Xian everywhere. Only now did she remember that Chen Xian had been staying in the infirmary these days, helping the infirmary with all this work. However, with such a big matter happening today, there were quite a lot of people who came to watch. However, they didn't see where Chen Xian had gone to.

She comforted Elder Chen with a few words, then went to the back yard to look for Shen Wangxin.

"Ah Xian? "Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for almost an entire day!" Shen Wangxin was startled as she shook her head.

Speaking of which, Chen Xian had an extremely well-behaved personality. Even if he went out to pick a dish, he would have to greet Old Chen. He had disappeared for so long without a sound, and he didn't even return for lunch. It was indeed rather abnormal.

"How about this, if you're not back by dinner time, I'll tell your uncles to look for you in the village!" Auntie Shen said, "As long as we don't leave the village, it should be fine."

Unexpectedly, Chen Xian still hasn't come back yet.

Auntie Shen hurried to the field and called her sons, who were on their way home, over. The group of them split up and went to the village to look for Chen Xian.

Without realizing it, Shen Wangxin walked to the grain drying field in front of the village. It was not the harvest time, so the entire field was empty. Normally, there would not be many people who would specially come here.

At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the field, and the scenery that entered his eyes was plated with a layer of hazy gold. A few knots of grass that had been left behind the previous autumn were piled up on their own, casting a long shadow across the field.

"Xin, why are you here?" A familiar voice sounded.

Shen Wangxin looked towards the source of the voice and saw that Hei Zi had appeared behind her at some point in time.
