298 Recommendation

However, the Du Family’s background was not small, and Du Zhongheng could totally not earn this sum of money from her, so this was only an alternative.

“By the way, Lady Qin, I have a recommendation, but I’m afraid you won’t be willing to send the babies far away.”

Bai Shiyuan seemed to have thought of something. After a slight hesitation, he said this to Mo Ruyue.

“Young Master, please speak your mind.”

Mo Ruyue thought that there was no harm in listening and motioned for Bai Shiyuan to continue.

“I know a good headmaster of the academy. He is a Jinshi who was born in the second class. His character and temperament are good, and he especially loves talents. When Du Zhongheng’s matter came to light, although he was despised and scolded by all the students in the world, only the headmaster stood on Du Zhongheng’s side and spoke on his behalf.”

“So, I think that if your baby has any other choice, the headmaster’s academy can be considered.”

When Mo Ruyue heard this, she immediately became interested.

“What’s the name of the academy and where is it? Oh, perhaps I should ask the headmaster’s name first.”

“Hehe, I only knew that Lady Qin would definitely be interested.”

Bai Shiyuan smiled and continued, “That academy is called the Hanchen Academy. It is located in the suburbs outside Ping City. It occupies a vast area and has a beautiful environment. It can be ranked among all the academies in the country.”

“The headmaster’s name is Ye Jingyu. She’s already forty-two years old this year. She has two sons and a daughter, and they’re all married.”

He was very detailed, as if he was afraid that he would miss something. It was so detailed that it seemed like he was introducing a blind date.

The more Mo Ruyue listened, the more she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, she simply waved her hand and interrupted him.

“Alright, Young Master. You mentioned that the academy is in Ping City, right? No wonder you said that I would miss them.”

Ping City was more than one hundred and fifty miles away from the Qin Village. Even in her previous life, when transportation was extremely developed, it would take a long time to travel by car, let alone in this era where most people had to walk and rely on mules and horses at most.

Mo Ruyue had a big black horse, so it wouldn’t take too much time to come and go. But for the babies, once they left, it wouldn’t be easy to come back.

Moreover, Ping City was the territory of the prefect Duanmu Xize. Mo Ruyue knew that he was trying to get his hands on her. If she really let her babies study at the Hanchen Academy, it would be equivalent to sending her weakness right under his nose.

If that were to happen, she would have to follow them to Ping City. Only by being close could she prevent any accidents from happening.

So, should I leave this place?

For some reason, Mo Ruyue suddenly felt a trace of reluctance.

However, nothing had been decided yet. She would wait until the beginning of spring next year to slowly observe the academy. If it was really suitable for the babies, she would take them with him.

The babies would grow up eventually and would spread their wings to fly high. They wouldn’t stay in the small village of the Qin Village forever.

Bai Shiyuan saw that Mo Ruyue’s expression had become more relaxed, as if she had figured something out. He could not help but smile as well.

“Alright, Young Master, thank you for your suggestion. I’ll think about it.”

Mo Ruyue nodded in thanks and went to continue her treatment with the first aid kit.

Bai Shiyuan looked at her back and thought of Mo Ruyue’s five babies. He could not help but sigh. Then, he called his personal attendant over.

“You go to the Hanchen Academy and find out what Ye Jingyu’s attitude is towards the matter of Lady Qin and Du Zhongheng, as well as the two lawsuits that arose because of it. After you’ve inquired clearly, come back and report.”

“Yes, this one will do it now.”

The attendant immediately set off after receiving the task.

Very soon, Bai Jinshang found out about this matter and called Bai Shiyuan over for questioning. After listening to his son’s explanation of the entire incident, he started to ponder.

“Shiyuan, this matter has to be solved as a big deal. Besides the five babies, Lady Qin doesn’t seem to have any desire for anything, and she doesn’t care about anyone. So now that she has something to do, we have to do our best to help her.”

“Father, your son understands. She saved your life before, and now she has saved mother and sister. She is our family’s benefactor. I will do my best to handle this matter.”

Bai Shiyuan nodded his head solemnly. He had already started to think of various solutions in his mind.

“Your body is recovering well now. Keep it up, but remember not to be greedy. If you really want to eat, tell me.”

Mo Ruyue removed the silver needles from Bai Shijiao’s body one by one and gave her routine instructions.

Madam Bai had already recovered under Mo Ruyue’s treatment. However, she still needed a period of time to recuperate because her vitality was damaged.

Bai Shijiao had lost a total of 40 pounds, and this was the result of Mo Ruyue deliberately slowing down her weight loss speed.

“Lady Qin, I’m really craving for it. I miss your cooking. Can you make me a few more nutritious meals?”

When Bai Shijiao heard that, she immediately made a request.

After her treatment started, Mo Ruyue strictly controlled her diet. Even the recipes were set by her.

Bai Shijiao, who had long been used to heavy oil, high salt, and all kinds of heavy spices, suddenly ate those bland and tasteless things. She simply could not swallow them. However, she did not dare to throw a tantrum with Mo Ruyue, so she could only endure it in her heart.

She couldn’t eat and was hungry. Even though she was slowly losing fat, this was not the way Mo Ruyue wanted her to lose weight. It was also the most harmful way to health.

Mo Ruyue also knew that it was a little too much to ask Bai Shijiao to change her diet structure and taste, so she personally made a nutritious meal for her, and a new world was opened to her.

How could the same ingredients become so delicious without any seasoning when they were in the hands of different people?

Bai Shijiao had finished the entire meal, and she even had the urge to finish the entire plate.

However, Mo Ruyue was not a full-time chef hired by the Bai family. She had only given the recipe to the chef of the Bai family and taught him some tricks. However, with the same ingredients and steps, she still couldn’t make Mo Ruyue’s taste.

So later on, Mo Ruyue simply used this as a way to reward Bai Shijiao, and it also gave Bai Shijiao more motivation to continue losing weight.

When Mo Ruyue saw Bai Shijiao’s pleading look, she smiled and said, “I’ll agree to your request on the account of your recent good performance. However, there’s a bottleneck period coming up. Can you hold on?”

The so-called bottleneck period was when no matter if it was acupuncture, massage, medicine, or diet adjustment, there could be no effect at all. There might even be a rebound, which would bring anxiety and irritability to people. This was called the bottleneck period.

In the past month, Bai Shijiao had already experienced two bottlenecks. Every time she was at a bottleneck, Mo Ruyue would make her a nutritious meal as a reward based on her perseverance.
