Chapter 372: Can’t Sleep at Night

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qu Yuanxian was a county magistrate in the past, but in the end, so many women had become the factory director and deputy factory director, yet Qu Yuanxian was not even an official teacher.

After thinking about it, Madam Qu still decided to look for Bai Wutong.

Bai Wutong could even give Sheng Huaixuan, a businessman, an important position. Madam Qu felt that with Qu Yuanxian’s contributions to Youjia Village back then, he would definitely be arranged properly.

Not to mention an especially big official, he could at least manage as many people as the 30 families of Qinghe like Cui Shiji.

However, when she thought of how rude she had been to Bai Wutong back then, she was a little afraid that Bai Wutong would bear a grudge.

After much hesitation, she decided to go all out for Qu Yuanxian.

She went to the market and walked around. Coincidentally, Ah Duo’s people had entered the mountain and obtained a huge piece of honey. They had also picked up two big red lingzhi.

Honey was extremely nourishing to women, and lingzhi could calm a person and nourish one’s energy. It was just the right excuse to give it to the pregnant Bai Wutong.

Madam Qu immediately spent 30 taels of silver to buy the entire piece of honey and two lingzhi. She asked the servants to bring it to Bai Wutong.

Bai Wutong’s identity was different now. Moreover, she had many things to do and had to take good care of her body. When Madam Qu asked to see her, she was naturally stopped by Qingfeng.

Madam Qu was disappointed to be unable to meet Bai Wutong. Only then did she truly realize that the gap between her and Bai Wutong was like an uncrossable river.

She returned to the tent anxiously and looked at her husband, who was engrossed in sorting out various documents. She was indignant.

Qu Yuanxian’s talent and knowledge were not much worse than others. Why should his talents be buried here?

If not for Bai Wutong and the others, Qu Yuanxian would not have been fired. Madam Qu felt extremely indignant that they had followed them all the way here and was treated inferiorly to others in every aspect.

She took a sip of her herbal tea to calm down and decided to find an alternative way.

Even if Bai Wutong refused to see her, it couldn’t be that she wouldn’t meet others, right?

Madam Qu found Madam Cui and found out that Yang Quanzi was about to celebrate his birthday. At that time, Bai Wutong would definitely make a visit, so she had an idea.

On Yang Quanzi’s birthday, the arrangements were simple. Everyone came to visit. Bai Wutong also specially got someone to craft a pair of reading glasses as a birthday gift.

Everyone was very interested in the birthday gift from Bai Wutong. Yang Quanzi was also looking forward to it. He opened it with a smile and was stunned when he saw the gold-rimmed glasses inside.

He did not need to make his face appear smaller. Why would Bai Wutong give him such an accessory?

Could it be that Bai Wutong found his face looking too big?

Yang Quanzi subconsciously touched his chubby chin. It seemed to have gotten a little bigger.

Bai Wutong must have wanted him to look younger and more handsome. After Yang Quanzi thought about it, he instantly smiled brightly. “The Consort’s gift is really unique. I especially like it!”

With that, Yang Quanzi took out the reading glasses from the box and put them on eagerly.

His face was really smaller, and his aura seemed different!

Sheng Huaixuan had marketed the glasses frame as a female accessory and it became sought after by everyone. Many people recognized this item and were very surprised that Bai Wutong’s gift was so perfunctory.

Unexpectedly, after Yang Quanzi put on his glasses, his eyes widened in excitement. “I can see now! I can see now!”

Everyone was confused. What did Yang Quanzi say he could see?

Just as everyone was feeling puzzled, Yang Quanzi had already asked Bai

Wutong, “Consort, what is this? It can actually make me see so clearly!’

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “It’s called glasses. The glass pieces on the frame of the glasses can reflect the image into the eyes, so you can see much clearer.”

Speaking of glasses, Sheng Huaixuan had once obtained a rare western-style glass that could also magnify words.

Bai Wutong actually thought of putting the glass to the eyes so that one would not be troubled by their blurred vision. It was too smart!

Most scholars had more or less some issues with their vision. When they heard that glasses could actually allow them to see more clearly, they all looked eagerly, hoping that they could have glasses too.

Yang Quanzi liked Bai Wutong’s gift too much. He would no longer be afraid that he would not be able to see clearly even when staying up late to organize information.

Cui Shize wanted to borrow it to take a look. Yang Quanzi treasured it a lot and even specially emphasized, “You have to be careful. This is a birthday gift from the Consort!’

Cui Shize had no choice but to guarantee to be careful, only then did Yang Quanzi lend it to him to try.

When he put the glasses on, he realized that it was indeed much clearer to look at people up close. However, the scene was very distorted and strange from afar, and his head felt dizzy.

Just as he was wondering why Yang Quanzi did not have any adverse reactions, Bai Wutong had already explained, “Everyone’s eyes are different, and the prescription of the glasses is also different.”

Cui Shize could not help but be puzzled. “How can you determine what kind of glasses to make?”

In the history of China, the Ming Dynasty had started researching glasses in detail. They used mechanical principles to invent a lens grinding machine—the pull-back cart.

This kind of cart was operated with one’s feet and used ore sand, white clay, brick dust, and other materials as abrasives or polishing materials to grind the lenses into concave lenses to accommodate the needs of the eyes. Finally, the grinding technology would use natural crystal rocks to grind the lenses.

After testing with different lenses, a set of primitive photometric methods for “eye-to-eye glasses” was prepared. It was used to test the field of vision and match lenses of presbyopia, myopia, farsightedness, and various luminosity according to the person’s age and different vision.

Even if they did not have an optometrist now, they could still determine the prescription by using the above methods.

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “l got someone to make a lens to test the vision. You’ll know what kind of lens to wear after trying it.”

As soon as she said that, everyone immediately became happy. ‘Thank you, Consort!”

They were in luck!

Yang Quanzi was a little puzzled. “I didn’t test my vision. How did the Consort know that I should wear such glasses?”

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Most old people have a problem with seeing things at short ddistance. There is also a certain type of glasses in this situation, so I just guessed it. ‘

Everyone came to a realization and couldn’t help but praise Bai Wutong for her knowledge.

After giving her birthday gift, Bai Wutong was about to go back and take an afternoon nap.

Madam Qu suddenly appeared and said with concern, “Since the Consort is pregnant, I specially prepared some high quality honey and lingzhi. I hope you can accept it.”

Bai Wutong did not lack honey and lingzhi. Madam Qu did not have much contact with her and even had a previous conflict with her. If she gave her lingzhi and honey, she must have a request to ask of her.

Bai Wutong waved her hand. “Honey and lingzhi are nourishing. Madam Qu, you should enjoy them yourself.”

Bai Wutong did not take a liking to the lingzhi and honey. This was as Madam Qu had expected, so she took out another exquisite tiger-head hat. “This is the tiger-head hat I personally sewed for the young master. I wish the young master peace and prosperity.”

They were all mothers. Everyone would want their children to be fine.

Bai Wutong took a few glances and gestured for Qingfeng to accept it.

Bai Wutong was willing to accept the tiger head hat. Madam Qu was delighted and felt confident to mention Qu Yuanxian’s official position. “Consort, Carefree City is currently short of people to manage.. My husband wants to share your worries and resolve your difficulties, so much so that he can’t sleep at night!”
