Cute Beauty’s Romantic Affairs - C74
“Yeah, how can you say that someone had an accident at a table and no one had an accident?” “Lin Qiang, it can’t be that you did it because you knew the poison in the dish!”
Auntie Lin took advantage of the situation and shouted, “Who in the village doesn’t know that your second son is biased towards you? You should have sent your eldest brother to become a yamen runner, so why did you change him into your second son?”
The village burst into laughter. Lin Qiang’s two sons had a clear personality since they were young. The eldest was taciturn, honest, and honest. It was a good way to work in the fields. Although it was a bit stiff, everyone in the village was willing to interact with him.
Back then, when Lin Qiang sent his two sons to study in a private school, he brought their boss home after two years. He said that since their boss had a way out of the house, their second brother should be smart enough to go to school. Originally, there was nothing wrong with that. However, not long after, the second brother broke the head of the teacher’s son in the private school and sent him back.
Lin Qiang had to put in a lot of effort before he found his brother-in-law and got a job in the yamen. Originally, Lin Qiang had said that it was for his eldest brother, to find an honest child to do it well, then he would be promoted.
Everyone in the village knew about his family’s situation, so when they heard Auntie Lin’s words, they couldn’t help but feel suspicious.
“Yeah, and why do you still need tofu prescriptions like this when you’ve eaten too much?”
Some of them reacted as quickly as they could. It was obvious that the Lin Clan was up to no good!
“Only eight families know about this tofu recipe. Although our village is remote, there have been a lot of people coming and going these days making use of the tofu recipe. Maybe there will be people who are jealous of our booming business!”
Those who had originally wanted to ask the Lin Family about the tofu recipe but had been holding it in all this time also took the opportunity to ask, “Seeing that we have people helping, I guess that bad brat Lin Gangliang wouldn’t dare to reach out his hand. In the blink of an eye, he’s already locked onto Lin Yang’s family.”
The woman who was speaking was Sister-in-Law Wang. When they switched marriages and came to the Lin Family Village, the whole family was so poor that they made loud noises. A few months ago, when the cute girl said she was going to trade tofu for tofu, she was the first one to register.
“You all… You’re slandering us! ” Lin Qiang’s old face turned red, “You have to give evidence! “No matter how biased I am, I would never do something like this with my own son’s life!”
“Doctor!” Tell me, what did they eat to the point of spoiling their stomachs? ” Sister Wang rushed forward and grabbed the Goatee Doctor who was about to leave, wanting him to judge her justice.
“This …” The doctor looked awkwardly at Lin Gangliang, sweat trickling down his forehead, “This is the reaction of food poisoning…”
“Poisoned!?” Everyone’s voices rose by eight degrees. “How could they be poisoned?”
The doctor could not speak, and kept his eyes on the place where Lin Gangliang was.
The maiden was silent as she watched his little movements. She was well aware that these people were obviously suffering from food poisoning. It was probably not a serious problem, but what kind of food was it? Why did the Lin Clan’s people that were made into tofu have to be so cruel to their own family?
After coming here for a few months, the little girl had heard about many cases of people dying from diseases. In modern times, dying from a single cold was unimaginable, but in the ancient medical era, some children could not even survive to adulthood.
“It should be the tofu poisoning …” I heard that making tofu requires a type of brine, so it must be from this brine … I wonder if you could let me take a look at this tofu recipe, so that I can be able to confirm my diagnosis. ”
After saying this, the goatee doctor was already sweating profusely. He quickly raised his sleeves to wipe his forehead.
The villagers discussed animatedly, as if they were about to waver.
The lady found that at this time, people were especially trusting of certain professions. For example, doctors, before there was no proof that doctors lied, many people would go bankrupt and cooperate with doctors for treatment. In modern times, this was simply inconceivable.
For example, Jin Ling had previously saved her father, but now the villagers had blindly placed their trust in this godly stick that came out of nowhere.
“I can give you the tofu recipe, but I want to ask, if you know what it is made of, is there any way to treat them?”
Lin Gangliang’s face showed a flash of happiness, which was noticed by his mistress.
“There’s a way, of course there’s a way.” The doctor nodded.
“Alright, let’s exchange then. I’ll tell you what I need to make the tofu. Tell me, how about the medicinal ingredients I need to save them?”
When Ye Xuan arrived, he saw the delicate girl standing amongst the crowd, flaunting her beauty with a single glance as she spoke confidently. Instead, he put down the worry in his heart and began to watch what the little girl was about to do.
After all, all the villagers worked together in the mill to make tofu. If someone was more attentive, they would be able to find out what the tofu was made of, and if they did, it would not be difficult to find out how to make tofu.
“You said this is a tofu recipe, this is a tofu recipe? What if you intend to hide it? ” Lin Gangliang was very dissatisfied with her perfunctory attitude.
“If what she said is the slightest of falsehood, then I, Lin Yang, will willingly follow you to see an official, even if it means that I have to go to jail!”
Lin Yang walked out of the yard with a dark expression, each step he took was like the wind. Upon seeing him, Lin Yang Niang panicked, “Why did you come out!?” Who told you to come out! If you go to jail, what about me and your father!? ”
Lin Yang looked at Cui Lian in the corner and didn’t answer her question. He quickly comforted his mother, “We are good at doing things and sit upright. What’s there to be afraid of? It should be those who are plotting against us!”
The doctor looked hesitantly at Lin Gangliang. Seeing that he was unmoved, he heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s easy to cure this disease. The vine leaves can be boiled in a pot of water. Once you drink it, everything will be fine!”
“What is a Gomez Vine?” Aunt Lin asked. She had never heard of this plant before.
“This vine grows in the mountains. Normally, we wouldn’t be able to see it unless we go up the mountain.”
The cute girl nodded, feeling a little awkward. Could it be that this Kudzu Vine could cure food poisoning?
Lin Gangliang saw that she was in trouble and laughed out loud, “You said that I was greedy for your money, and now that the doctors have said this, why don’t you hurry up and compensate us? If you don’t compensate us for our losses, then we’ll meet at the yamen and intentionally poison us, we can probably be transported thousands of miles!”
Upon hearing the word “exile”, Lin Yang immediately cried, “We will pay!” Don’t exile my son! ” He then turned around to beg the little girl, “Little girl, can you just lend us some money? We’ll pay you back even if we have to work hard!”
If there really was no solution, then she would definitely pay the money to save Lin Yang. However, this kind of behavior would only happen a second time. Could it be that in the future, anyone who tried to sell tofu would have to look for her?
She was a businessman, not a savior.
The situation had suddenly reached a deadlock. Lin Qiang’s men were jeering for Lin Yang to be sent to the official. The villagers were all begging for leniently for a few days, while Lin Yangniang was begging everywhere. But who would be willing to take out that much silver?
Cui Lian couldn’t bear it any longer, she gently pulled on her mother’s sleeve with a wooden expression, “Mother, if I agree to be that person’s concubine, can I lend the money to Lin Yang?”
When her mother heard this, her eyes widened like a thief. With red eyes, she pulled her to the side, “Are you crazy? “How is that Lin Yang good, he’s worth it for you to do this!”
Originally, she wasn’t that weak of character, she only took a fancy to Lin Yang because he was close to her, his family was easy to get along with, also considered a proper person, but for some reason, after watching him for so long, Cui Lian couldn’t trick herself into going back to her parents’ home, she obviously already had deep feelings for him!
But what she did in the past had caused Lin Yang to have no good impression of her. He had even publicly rejected her. How could she not be sad? How could she not hate him?
Last time when the Jade Lotus Lady made a ruckus in the Lin Yang family, it had completely destroyed her hopes of getting one. Moreover, who would be willing to marry a woman with such a stain on her face?
No one from the innocent family was willing to marry her. Lady Cui Lian could only find someone from the county who was willing to take her as a second wife with a betrothal gift of thirty silver taels.
If they were to be married off, it would be equivalent to selling it to someone else. After all, this dynasty was very strict on their wives and concubines.
Cui Lian wasn’t willing to marry, and even said she might as well go to the mountain and become a nun. But now she was willing to marry for Lin Yang, how could Cui Lian not be sad?
“My son is so good, why is he so blind!”
