Yang pulled Liu Sicheng and hid behind a pile of firewood, watching the carriage from her brother-in-law's family slowly leave.

Liu Sicheng asked, "Why is my brother-in-law so kind all of a sudden? Not only did he give me money, he also treated Er Ni'er's illness?"

Yang brushed off the dirt on her body and turned to go home. "What do you know? The wealthy families in the city are all into marriage. Who knows, a young man from a wealthy family might have taken a fancy to our Er Ni'er. If my brother-in-law can become the matchmaker, we can become a family in the future."

Liu Sicheng chuckled.

Yang asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Liu Sicheng said: "Then aren't we the father-in-law and mother-in-law of that young master?"

Yang grinned, raised her hand and patted Liu Sicheng, "What good things are you thinking? We are poor people, we don't have anything. Your brother-in-law is a scholar, and your eldest nephew is a juren. They don't even need to kneel when they see the county magistrate. If you want to marry into a rich family, you have to recognize your relatives, and you should recognize your sister and brother-in-law."

The two returned home happily and ran into Liu Weiran head-on.

Seeing the two of them talking and laughing, Liu Weiran asked, "Dad, Mom, what are you two doing?"

Yang was about to speak when she suddenly remembered what her brother-in-law had told her, and said quickly, "No big deal. Go to the east end of the village and ask your uncle Liu if he's still slaughtering pigs. Ask him to save some meat for the New Year."

Liu Weiran had no doubts and walked into the east room in a graceful manner.

Yang thought for a moment, followed him in, and asked cautiously, "Er Ni, where is your husband from?"

Liu Weiran's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise, "Mom, do you believe me?"

Yang smiled awkwardly.

Liu Weiran's face turned slightly red, with a sweet and affectionate look on her face, and she said softly: "He is Ji Jue, the eldest son of the Changyuan County Magistrate. He treats my daughter very well and teaches her to read and write."

She looked at Yang with shining eyes, "He also said that having Wei Ran in this life is enough, and he will treat me well for the rest of his life."

Yang's scalp went numb when she heard this, and she cried out in her heart: Oh my god, he is really crazy, and he has dementia.

Changyuan County is not far from here, and Yang often goes to the county to buy things. What girl or young wife wouldn't like the eldest son of the county magistrate?

To ordinary people like them, the county magistrate's son was like a god, someone they could see but could not reach.

I didn’t expect that Erni would dare to have feelings for him?

He must be locked up well. If he gets out and offends the county magistrate's son, the Liu family will not be able to afford the blame!

Early the next morning, Liu Sicheng went to the city to find Kang'an Pharmacy as Qin Jingchang had instructed.

Sure enough, the doctor had already packed ten prescriptions, and as expected, he did not mention the money.

Liu Sicheng returned home, handed the medicine to his wife, and whispered, "The doctor said that people with madness have very bad tempers. They not only beat and scold people, but also bite people. If they can't be seen, they will run away. Once they run away, they will never be able to find their way home again after the madness comes."

Yang was panicking, "What should I do?"

Er Ni'er has fallen in love with the county magistrate's son!

Liu Sicheng said, "The doctor said that in order to prevent Er Ni from escaping, he added some sleeping pills to the medicine. Apart from making your legs and feet weak and causing you to sleep more, there are no other bad effects."

That's it.

Yang followed the doctor's instructions, soaked the medicine, and let it cool down at night.

The two of them quietly took Liu Baocai and rushed in while Liu Weiran was still asleep.

Liu Weiran was sleeping soundly. He opened his eyes when he heard the door open and asked, "Dad, Mom, Brother? Why did you get in?"

Yang gave a look to Liu Sicheng and Liu Baocai.

The two of them pounced on him together and pinned Liu Weiran down.

Liu Weiran was horrified and shouted, "What are you doing? Let me go!"

Yang cried and said, "Er Ni, there is nothing I can do. Who made you so crazy? Don't worry, your father has already got you some medicine. You will be fine after you take it."

What madness? What medicine?!

Liu Weiran's hands were tied behind his back with hemp rope, tightly.

Her father and brother held her down, one on each side. Her mother pinched her chin, forced her mouth open, and poured a bowl of black medicine into her mouth.

Liu Weiran whimpered, but most of the medicine was still poured into his body.

She cried loudly, "What did you give me to drink? I'm not sick! Didn't you hear that I'm not sick? You are crazy, you are crazy..."

Yang picked up another bowl and comforted her while she drank it, "Mother knows, good Erni, you will be fine after drinking the medicine."

Liu Weiran was going crazy.

Who is sick?

Which damn doctor said she was sick? !

But it was useless to struggle anymore. He had to drink at least half of the two bowls of medicine.

His stomach was full of medicine and was rumbling.

Liu Weiran said kindly: "Let me go, I'm really not sick, I'm fine. I'm more sober than you all!"

She became more and more angry and shouted, "Who the hell told you I'm sick?!"

Yang stepped back in fear: It’s over, the madness is coming!

Usually, her Erni is a very obedient girl. She never even speaks loudly.

If you weren't extremely crazy, how dare you curse at people?

Liu Sicheng quietly approached Yang and whispered in her ear, "Can you untie her?"

Yang's hands were still shaking, and her voice was shaking, "Wait a minute. She's sick now, and if we untie her, she might run away. Crazy people are very strong, and we're afraid we can't hold her down."

The three people stared at Liu Weiran, watching her struggle and cry enough, and then she gradually became drowsy and fell asleep.

Yang clasped her hands together and whispered, "Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva bless me and help my Er Ni get better soon."

She walked out trembling, saying as she walked, "Lock the door, lock it tightly, don't let her run away."

Their daughter is crazy, if she runs out and offends someone again, they can’t afford to pay her back…

Yang felt very upset: Oh, what kind of fate is this for her!

The door of the east room was slammed shut and locked with a big iron lock.

Outside the courtyard gate, a figure was peeking around. He waited until the Liu family locked the door to the east room and entered the north room before quietly leaving.

The man left Liujia Village and headed straight for Jinzhou City.

Soon we went to Kang'an Pharmacy in the south of the city.

After entering the pharmacy, I went straight to the second floor.

Qin Jingchang saw a figure flash by the door, put down the teacup in his hand, took out two hundred taels of silver notes from his sleeve pocket with a smile, put them on the table, raised two fingers and tapped them lightly, and said, "Sir, thank you for your trouble. After the matter is completed, Qin will definitely reward you handsomely!"

The person sitting opposite smiled awkwardly and bent slightly.

If Nanny Qin was here at this moment, she would certainly be able to recognize that the doctor sitting opposite Qin Jingchang was the one who came to the garden to diagnose Qin Shu's "illness" on the day when Qin Jingyuan and his wife's coffins were brought into the mansion.

At this time, the doctor was sweating profusely, his face was pale, and he sat there trembling and dared not move.

Qin Jingchang smiled and said, "Doctor He, don't worry. I am a scholar and my words are my due. Besides, there is nothing wrong with the prescription you wrote, and there is naturally no problem with the medicine you packed."

Doctor He replied with a mumbling "yes".

Qin Jingchang stood up leisurely and bowed to Doctor He. "Doctor He, please sit down. Qin will take his leave."

Just as Doctor He was about to stand up, Qin Jingchang forced him to sit down again.

Hearing the sound of Qin Jingchang coming down the stairs gradually fading away, Doctor He slumped down in his chair and breathed a long sigh of relief.

If you misstep once, you will regret it for the rest of your life!

Back then, I shouldn't have coveted those few dozen taels of silver and done such a heinous thing!

Thinking of the shopkeeper Qin and his wife, such kind people...

Doctor He sighed: Now he and Qin Jingchang are tied to the same rope.

If he doesn't want to die, he has to obey Qin Jingchang's orders.

I just don’t know who Qin Jingchang has harmed this time.

On the other side, Qin Jingchang returned home. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw a cousin from the clan walking out of the door.

His heart skipped a beat: things had been happening one after another these days, and he had forgotten about the 57th memorial service for his elder brother and sister-in-law!
