Quick travel to save a miserable life

The next day, Lin Hui got up earlier than usual because she had ordered last night to send someone to ask for Dr. Lin at dawn today. Therefore, by the time Lin Hui packed up Dao Li Gu's room, Dr. Lin had already arrived.

Li Gu seems to be better today than yesterday. It should be that the detoxification decoction has played a part. Now he is looking at Doctor Lin eagerly, hoping that he can cure himself.

Doctor Lin first checked Li Gu's pulse, and then communicated with the old doctor about yesterday's pulse, injections, and medication.

Dr. Lin frowned, thought for a long time, and said in deep thought: "I seem to have seen this poison in a pulse book in my father's study, but the patient took it by mistake, and the dose was not large, so It’s not difficult to treat, but the dose is too high. If the treatment hadn’t been done in time last night, I’m afraid…”

Li Gu couldn't help but wince when he heard the words "the dose is too high". It took the bark of dozens of trees to extract such a packet of medicine, so the dose couldn't be too high!

Doctor Lin asked Lin Hui, "Do you know how your uncle was poisoned?"

Not only Doctor Lin wanted to know this question, Li Gu also wanted to understand it. He still couldn't figure out why the bowl he drank was poisonous. Could it be that he was confused yesterday and took the wrong one when giving it to his father-in-law?

Lin Hui actually knew this very well, but she just said helplessly: "You have to ask your husband about this. I wonder what he accidentally drank last night that caused the poisoning?"

Hearing this, Li Gu could only pretend to be speechless and shake his head. If he didn't speak, others wouldn't be able to either.

Doctor Lin wrote down a prescription, which was more targeted than what the old doctor prescribed last night.

However, when he walked outside, Doctor Lin said to Lin Hui: "The poisoning is too deep and it is difficult to completely remove it. In the future, the body will be much weaker than before, and there may be problems with the children. Moreover, you cannot be tired, and your life span will also be reduced." Affected!"

He knew that Lin Hui and Li Gu had a deep relationship, and that the Lin family had few heirs, so he told Lin Hui about this first.

Lin Hui nodded to express her understanding.

What does this mean? Master Lin and Lin Hui are dead in their previous life, and the Lin family has been completely wiped out. All the family property has fallen into the hands of evildoers. Now they are just collecting some interest from Li Gu, and the bulk will come later!

Asking Doctor Lin to stay in the house for a while, Lin Hui went directly to Master Lin's study.

Last night, he asked for a doctor and made medicine. Mr. Lin was already alarmed. The reason he didn't come was because Lin Hui had told Mr. Lin before calling the doctor that it was just Li Gu's gastrointestinal discomfort, so he called Mr. Lin. He stopped.

Now that Doctor Lin is coming in early in the morning, I'm afraid he can't hide it, so it's better for Lin Hui to reveal it to Mr. Lin personally. Keeping Dr. Lin is just in case. Although Mr. Lin has always been in good health, he is fast after all. He is sixty years old, and I am afraid that he will suffer from bad health due to the stimulation.

Mr. Lin met Lin Hui and found that everything was fine, so he casually asked his son-in-law how he was doing. Finally, he said that he was going to visit Butler Wang later. He was busy recently and just asked someone to send some things. Today He was going to visit in person after breakfast.

In fact, he has never visited Butler Wang because of Lin Hui's series of actions in the mansion. So many problems were discovered at once. Butler Wang has been the chief steward of the mansion for so many years, so he is definitely to blame. Mr. Lin How could there be no grudge?

It's just that Mr. Lin thought that he was the wet nurse's only son after all, and the two of them had been together for many years, and he had decided to remove Butler Wang from his position as chief steward, so he no longer cared about the rest.

He also wanted to personally inform Butler Wang of the news this time, and planned to cancel the slave status of Butler Wang and his son in the next two days, and transfer the prepared property of Zhuangzi to Butler Wang's name.

Seeing this, Lin Hui couldn't help but smile bitterly. She originally wanted to let Mr. Lin know the truth of the matter later, but now, I'm afraid she can't do it. Otherwise, once Butler Wang and his son are deprived of their slave status, they will be good citizens, which will not be good. It is a sin to punish the master by being a slave.

Lin Hui was thinking about what to say. Suddenly, a servant at the door came to report in panic, saying that an official had come to Lin's house and asked the master to go to the front hall for questioning.

Both Mr. Lin and Lin Hui were shocked, but then, Lin Hui thought of a possibility. Calculating the time, the people sent to the provincial capital to purchase gems should have turned back. Could it be that those robbers still acted like they did in the previous life?

Mr. Lin walked quickly to the front hall, and Lin Hui followed behind him, his body heavy.

The one who came to Lin's house was the county government's chief Xing. On weekdays, the Lin family in the three classes and six rooms of the county government had no shortage of filial piety, and the heads of various departments were even more generous. Therefore, this Xing Xing, the chief, could be regarded as an acquaintance of the Lin family.

He politely bowed his hand to Mr. Lin, and told the story about the people from Jinyulou who went to the provincial capital to buy goods and encountered robbers on their way back. He also said that because the bodyguard he hired was very skilled, there were no casualties or financial losses. Instead, several robbers were captured alive. One of the robbers confessed that they were instigated by others. As for the instigators, they were your housekeeper Wang Youcai and your son-in-law Li Gu.

This short conversation made Mr. Lin's mood go up and down. He felt that there might be something wrong with his ears. First he heard that the people sent to buy gems encountered robbers, then he learned that there was no loss, and finally told himself The people who instigated the robbers were Butler Wang and Li Gu!

But looking at Capt. Xing's slightly sympathetic expression, Mr. Lin knew that he had heard correctly. There must have been some misunderstanding for so long. Maybe someone had conspired to frame him. One was the big housekeeper he had known for many years, and the other was... My own son-in-law, how is this possible?

But regardless of whether Mr. Lin believed this fact or not, the executioner had to take these two people back to the Yamen for questioning.

Lin Hui watched Mr. Lin slumped on the chair, his eyes dull and speechless. She had no choice but to summon Steward Qi, who asked him to take Capt. Xing and his agents to arrest the two men separately. Then she invited Doctor Lin from the back hall.

Doctor Lin said that Mr. Lin was temporarily absent-minded due to a sudden stimulation of his mind. It was not serious and just two injections would be enough. If he was worried, he could prescribe a medicine and drink one dose.

Lin Hui felt relieved now. Punishing the evildoers was important, but Mr. Lin's health was more important. As long as he was fine, it would be fine.

Now that someone from the government has come forward to expose the crimes of Li Gu and Butler Wang, there is no need for her to come and tell Mr. Lin personally.

After seeing Dr. Lin give Mr. Lin two injections, Mr. Lin came back to his senses. He let out a long breath and sighed heavily. Although he recovered, he was still in low spirits.

But when Mr. Lin saw Doctor Lin about to leave, he quickly came to his senses and asked him to stay and take Lin Hui's pulse again.

He was worried that Lin Hui might get pregnant after hearing the news just now.

It wasn't until Dr. Lin said that Lin Hui's pulse was strong and there was nothing wrong with her that Mr. Lin was relieved that his daughter was fine.

However, he was still upset about what Chief Xing had just said and was eager to know the details.

So, he decided to take two people with him and go to the county government office in person to find out the news.

Mr. Lin wanted to go out immediately and went to the county government office, but he was stopped by Lin Hui, who said that he would go out after having breakfast. Only then did Mr. Lin realize that he and his daughter had not had breakfast yet. Considering that if he refused to eat, he might My daughter was also uneasy, so she patiently sat down and finished breakfast with Lin Hui before going out.
