After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 50: Everyone Has Their Own Secrets and Investigates Secretly

In the county jail, the Lin family's father and son were recalling the details of the diagnosis.

"Father, besides being extremely skinny, does Mr. Qian have any other physical symptoms?" Lin Mingxuan asked.

"It seems that there is a bulge in the abdomen." Mr. Lin thought for a moment and replied.

"His illness must have lasted for a long time. His breathing was weak, and during the examination, apart from some groans, there was basically no response." Lin Mingyuan sighed.

"For people who have been ill for a long time, eating is a big problem. If he could eat something, he might not die so soon." said Mr. Lin.

Lin Mingxuan suddenly felt like he was electrocuted and had an idea, but the idea was too vicious. Just thinking about it made him feel cold all over. He quickly shook his head, trying to get rid of it.

"Mingxuan, what have you thought of?" Lin Mingyuan noticed Lin Mingxuan's abnormality and asked.

"Brother, it's nothing." Lin Mingxuan was reluctant to say. He couldn't believe that a son deliberately didn't let his father eat, which led to his father's death.

In another cell, Qian Asheng was a little anxious. The coroner wouldn't find anything, would he? No, that shouldn't happen. Wu Ge said it was okay. The doctor couldn't find anything. Nothing would be found out from a dead body. In the end, it was still a dispute between the two parties. He could afford to delay it, but the clinic couldn't. If they settled privately, they could get the money.

"Old man, since you didn't make me a young master, just make some money for me in the end."

Why did he have to work for others since he was young? People younger than him dared to bully him. Why did he have to look at other people's eyes for everything? Why did he have to endure? Why couldn't he be a young master?

It's all my fault that my family is poor. If they were poor, they shouldn't have given birth to me. Wu Ge is right. Since they gave birth to me, they should be responsible for me for my whole life, just like Wu Ge's mother, who would make money for me even after she died. How dare you be named Qian when you are so poor?

Qian Asheng grabbed a handful of straw and threw it hard at his feet.

Inside the county yamen, Magistrate Wang spread out the anonymous letter of complaint and read it several times. After a long while, he called two yamen runners.

"You two, go to Qian Asheng's house and ask the neighbors about Qian Asheng's character. Then, go to his house and check the items and furnishings at home. In particular, check whether there is any food at home and whether there are any signs of cooking in the kitchen."

"Yes." The two bailiffs quickly ran out of the door.

The two went to Qian Asheng's house first. They thought no one was there, but they found someone lying in the yard to cool off.

"who are you?"

The man heard the noise, turned around, stood up quickly, and pulled up his clothes to cover his exposed belly.

"Hello, gentlemen. My name is Wu A Ming, and I am A Sheng's brother. Something happened in A Sheng's family, so I came to help."

"Well. We want to go into the house and take a look. You just stay here and don't move." said the bailiff.

"Yes." Wu A Ming nodded.

There were only a few shabby pieces of furniture in the room. When they opened the box, they found it was empty. The bed board was bare with some rags thrown on it. The two looked at each other and shook their heads.

The kitchen was outside, and there was a layer of dust on the stove. When I opened the lid of the rice jar, there were only a few grains of rice left at the bottom of the jar, and there were more rat droppings than rice grains.

"No wonder the adults asked us to come and see the situation." The two of them immediately understood.

"Go back to your own home. The Qian family is involved in a case now and you can't come and go as you please."

"Yes." Wu A Ming was waiting to get the money, but it seems that this time it is not that simple.

The yamen runner closed the door, and Wu Ah Ming left the alley in his slippers. Not far away, Chen Pi and his men followed quietly.

Wu A Ming hummed a tune, walked through several alleys, came to a very dilapidated courtyard, and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" A voice came from the yard.

"I."

"Hey, big brother, please come in." A shifty-looking man opened the door and stuck his head out to look into the alley.

"Don't worry, there's no one here. The officers can't take care of us now." Wu A Ming said.

"Yes, big brother. There are good wine and food in the house, please come in."

"Don't rush to eat. Go to the county government office and ask about Qian Asheng's case."

"Okay, I'll go right away." The man opened the door and ran out. A young man from the Ding's herbal medicine shop quietly followed him.

Chen Pi pressed his body tightly against the wall at the entrance of the alley, not daring to breathe. Later, he transformed himself into a doctor who traveled the streets selling plasters. The others were divided into two groups, one group took a break, and the other group followed quietly not far away.

The young doctor entered the alley and started to hawk his wares:

"Plaster, plaster, a panacea, just apply it and all the pain will go away!"

The gates of several houses in the alley were open. It was almost evening and the men who had gone out to work were returning home one after another. A few people heard the noise and went out.

"How much is the plaster, young man?"

"Two cents a piece, the price is fair, no cheating."

"Okay, give me two."

"Give me three stickers. Will you sell them for five cents?"

"Okay, big brother is a straightforward person."

"Where are you from, young man? It's almost curfew, can you go home?"

"Not far, not far. I'm from Xifang too."

"That's good."

"Brother, is that family very rich? I heard someone drinking inside." Chen Pi said, pointing to the yard where Wu A Ming entered.

"Put it down quickly." An elder brother lowered his voice and pressed Chenpi's arm down.

"The people in that courtyard are all scoundrels. You can't afford to offend them. There is a leader named Wu A Ming, who is very vicious. You'd better stay away from him."

"The government doesn't care?"

"No one dared to say anything. It would be terrible if they were retaliated. This place is remote and officials rarely come here."

"Okay, thank you for the reminder, brother. I'll take my leave now." Chenpi put the bag on his shoulder and walked towards the entrance of the alley.

"This place is probably one of their hideouts. People have to eat. Let's ask someone to come over to sell buns tomorrow and meet the 'big brothers' inside." Chen Pi thought secretly and quickened his pace.

Rushing back to the Ding residence, Master Ding had not yet returned home. Chen Pi asked the others to go back and rest first, and he waited at the door. As the night deepened, the sound of a carriage was heard, and Master Ding had arrived home.

"Master, you have worked hard." Chenpi stepped forward and supported him.

"Chenpi, you guys have worked hard today, let's go in and talk."

The two entered the yard and walked to the main house.

"Master, we found a hiding place of Wu A Ming and others in Mu Lian Lane, but we don't know what the situation is inside and how many people are there."

"Okay, I'll write to Xi Rui later and have my family deliver the letter tomorrow."

"Yes, sir. What results have you got?"

"I went to three clinics this afternoon. There have been no extortion incidents in recent years. I will continue to visit tomorrow."

"Master, do you need us to send someone to help you?"

"No, just do your own thing. What are you going to do next?"

"I'm going to sell buns and fruits tomorrow. I'll set out early in the morning. It doesn't look like those people can cook. I'll have to wait until they come out."

"Okay, be careful. Do you have enough money?"

"Don't worry, it's enough."

After the two of them discussed countermeasures, Mrs. Ding came in:

"What happened?" she asked.

"It's okay, it's all about the store." Mr. Ding replied.

"Why are you so busy so late? Go and have dinner soon." Mrs. Ding signaled Chenxiang to serve the meal.

"Master, Madam, Chenpi will take his leave first." Chenpi bowed and ran into the backyard.

Mrs. Ding felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. In the past, Chenpi would always gossip a little, but today he ran away as if he was avoiding her. So, she confirmed again: "You are not hiding anything from me, right?"

"No." Mr. Ding replied.

"Really do not have?"

"Really." Mr. Ding answered, but turned his face to the other side. Boss Ding, who was very shrewd in business, did not dare to lie in front of his wife.

"No, tell me honestly, what's the matter?" Mrs. Ding said seriously.

"It's just...something happened to the Lin family."

"What's the matter? Is Xirui okay?" Mrs. Ding became anxious when she heard the Lin family.

"See, I knew you would be anxious."

"Just tell me now!"

"Xi Rui is fine. The Lin family clinic has been sued and we are trying to find a solution." Boss Ding told everything that happened in the Lin family.

"Hey, how could this happen?"

"Don't worry, the Lin family is trying to find a solution, and our family is also helping. The magistrate is wise, and the matter will be resolved soon."

"What can I do?" Being sad or anxious is useless. It would be best if you could help.

"You're doing well at home, which is a great help. Before leaving today, Xi Rui specifically told you that she didn't want you to worry."

"This child...Oh, never mind. You eat first." Chenxiang had already set the table.
