"So soon?" Fang Zhiya frowned. "If you leave, who will I go to play with? Ever since I met you, I feel that other people are meaningless. You are the only friend left. Are you just going to abandon me like this?"
"You make it sound like I'm an unfaithful man." Mary chuckled. "Isn't your Fang family a wealthy family in Beijing? You may come back someday. We can meet then. Besides, I may not come back from Beijing. I may find Beijing boring and come back soon."
Mary was about to leave, and Fang Zhiya took Mary to find the county magistrate's wife to say goodbye.
When the county magistrate's wife learned that she was going to the capital, she said to Mary: "Let's have a farewell banquet! Everyone is reluctant to let you go. You are leaving, so let us do our best to show our love. In the past two years, you have helped our Lord Fang a lot, and taught Ya'er a lot of things."
"Madam, don't say that. If it weren't for you and Ya'er, how could we, an orphan and a widow, be accepted so easily? What do you mean by excellent medical skills? I'm not stupid. If I didn't have a backer here, those drugstore owners would want to eat me up. We can have such an easy life only because we met noble people like you and Ya'er." Mary said. "I should host this farewell banquet."
