I traveled back to ancient times, but I was able to lie down and relax.

"Oh, yes, I've known her for a long time, but we weren't close back then. We only became acquainted because of my two sons' marriages. But she still follows the old custom and calls me by my name before I got married. My maiden name is Wang."

Aunt Zhao spoke very casually.

Liu Nanjia felt somewhat uncomfortable. In the village, married women were mostly addressed by their husbands' surnames. The women gradually lost their own names and became known as "so-and-so's wife" or "so-and-so's mother."

As a modern person, she hadn't realized this for so long, and just followed the others and called her Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhao.

This is actually not quite right.

Liu Nanjia felt somewhat guilty, so her mood was naturally low.

Liu Yanxi noticed his sister's unusual behavior and found it strange. Wasn't the matter resolved? So he asked her.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about something." Liu Nanjia shook her head, not telling the truth, because she knew her brother wouldn't understand. Even if she told those women these things now, they wouldn't understand, let alone her brother, a man.

Let's wait for the opportunity later. Changing mindsets can't be accomplished overnight.

However, she did think about something else just now.

This matter has been resolved, and it has also made Matchmaker Li keep an eye on the situation over there. However, the root of the problem remains. She can't just expose them every time they use her brother's name to arrange a marriage; that would be too passive.

Liu Nanjia had an idea, but after glancing at her brother, she decided it was best not to tell him.

When Liu Nanjia went to town that day, she deliberately arrived a little early and asked Song Chen to prepare the stall first. She went to the clinic to see Doctor Bai.

Actually, she wasn't sure if Doctor Bai had what she wanted. If not, she would go ask Carpenter Fang.

"Phosphorus?" Doctor Bai frowned upon hearing this. "White phosphorus? What do you need that for? It's very dangerous."

Liu Nanjia didn't have high hopes. She wasn't sure if there was white phosphorus at this time, or if there was but it was called by a different name. She was pleasantly surprised to hear what Doctor Bai said.

"I'm not going to do anything bad! Well, actually it is a kind of bad thing... but I have my reasons."

Then he recounted the events that had occurred in the Liu family's main branch over the past few days.

"I'm just so angry. To tell you the truth, I was pushed down by that aunt once and hit my head on a rock. I almost didn't make it out of it. Now they keep trying to harm us. I just want to teach them a lesson and scare them so they won't try to get back at us."

Upon hearing this, Doctor Bai's expression softened slightly. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Alright, I'll get you a little bit, just a little. Don't even think about taking more. Besides, this isn't available at the clinic. Come and get it tomorrow... or the day after."

Liu Nanjia was overjoyed and thanked Doctor Bai profusely before returning to his stall.

Song Chen asked her where she had been, but Liu Nanjia remained mysterious and didn't tell him.

As a result, the kid kept asking questions, which annoyed Liu Nanjia to no end.

She discovered that ever since they agreed to let him stay at home, his true nature had slowly been revealed. At first, he was so taciturn and cold as an ice cube, but now he asks the most questions every day. He asks about any new words she says, any new dishes she makes, he's practically asking a hundred thousand whys.

However, Liu Nanjia thought about it again and realized that what she was planning to do was indeed difficult to do alone. If she found a helper, it might be much easier.

So, on her way home, she quietly told him her plans.

Actually, she trusted Liu Yanxi more, but her brother's personality was indeed a bit old-fashioned, and he probably wouldn't agree. What if he not only refused to go with her, but also wouldn't let her go? That would be troublesome.

When Song Chen heard what Liu Nanjia wanted to do, he stared at her with wide eyes.

Liu Nanjia got anxious, "You kept asking, that's why I told you. You can't tell on me."

"No, no," Song Chen quickly stated, "However, if your brother knew, he probably wouldn't agree."

Liu Nanjia rolled her eyes at him, "I'm just not letting you tell my brother, otherwise who will you tell on me? If you dare to tell that family, you can forget about living in my house!"

Song Chen touched his nose. He had misunderstood. He thought this girl would at least tell her brother. It turned out she planned to do it all by herself.

Then Liu Nanjia said, "Since you already know, and I also feel like I need a helper, then come with me."

"Huh?" Song Chen was dumbfounded. Had he gotten himself into a trap?

"What 'ah'? Just tell me if you're going or not," Liu Nanjia said fiercely.

"I'll go, I'll go, but it's really not safe for you to go alone." Song Chen had no choice but to agree, but he wasn't very resistant; in fact, he was even a little excited.

The two discussed the matter further and agreed on some details.

Upon arrival, the day after tomorrow, Liu Nanjia went to the clinic again.

Doctor Bai took out a small packet of tightly wrapped white phosphorus and gave her a long lecture, telling her to use it carefully before letting her go.
