"I'll leave you to have a meal, why bother you to do this anymore."
As soon as Chu Nanzhi finished speaking, Lin Jinxiao in the back room also heard the conversation between the two, and his weak voice immediately came out:
"Sanlang, I'd better trouble you to bring some food in."
Both of them looked a little embarrassed.
Li Ce glanced at Chu Nanzhi embarrassedly, filled a bowl with some food in a panic, and said with a stiff smile: "Sister-in-law, you eat first, and I'll feed brother Jinxiao."
Chu Nanzhi didn't argue anymore. Although she thought about him in every way, the guy inside still looked at her awkwardly.
It's hard work anyway, so it's good to have someone to share it with.
She was minding her own meal. The four little ones knew that their father was fine. At this time, they were in the mood to whisper to each other.
Erbao Lin Ruixi came close to Dabao and muttered: "Brother, when did bad women learn to treat people?"
Dabao also found it very strange. In the past, the doctors invited to the house always gave people a lot of money. Today, the old doctor not only refused to accept money, but also gave money to the bad woman.
They had never seen anything so strange.
What's more important is that with the medicine the bad woman gave him just now, the pain in his back is no longer so severe.
Sanbao Lin Ruichong was a little worried, so he walked up to Dabao Erbao and whispered: "Will a bad woman lie to us?"
"I don't think so."
Dabao bit his chopsticks and thought for a while: "The doctor grandpa gave the bad woman money, and he also asked her for prescriptions to treat people."
"Then why is that bad woman so nice to us all of a sudden? And she seems to have become so powerful that she might even catch up with Dad."
Erbao Lin Ruixi thought about the clumsy woman who could only lose her temper and hit others, and felt incredible.
At this time, Chu Nanzhi was recalling the scene where the rabbit hit the tree on the back mountain today.
She had seen bizarre things, but never anything so evil.
Is it really just pure luck?
When I came back to my senses, I saw a few little guys whispering, not knowing what they were whispering.
There was no need to ask Yuan Fang, she could guess that the little ones were talking about her.
She tapped the table lightly with her chopsticks: "When you eat, just eat well. Why are you whispering to each other? There are no rules at all."
When the little treasures heard this, they immediately stopped talking, lowered their heads and continued eating.
After Li Ce fed Lin Jinxiao, he came out and sat down happily in his original position, smiling from ear to ear:
"I see that Brother Jinxiao's face looks much better. I was really scared to death just now. My sister-in-law is really amazing. I didn't know that my sister-in-law is proficient in medicine before."
Glancing at Chu Nanzhi, he hesitated to speak.
After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly continued: "On the way to see the old doctor off, the old man even asked me that he didn't think my sister-in-law was a capable person last time I came home, but today it was an eye-opener for him."
Although he tried his best to act as natural as possible to prevent her from noticing his true intentions.
But Chu Nanzhi saw through his intentions at a glance:
This guy is questioning himself.
When I was fed, I felt like a different person, maybe because I had a mission on my shoulders.
In the past few days, she tried her best to hide her clumsiness and not be so sharp, but when the crisis came, she had to show her true ability. She could not completely sit back and watch everything like the original owner.
After Wei Wei thought about it, she pretended to be embarrassed and replied: "Actually, I'm afraid you won't want to hear this."
Looking at the back room, she deliberately raised her voice: "When I was chatting with Taoist Ximen, I accidentally heard him mention some folk remedies to save lives and heal the wounded. I just heard the recipe from the Taoist."
She smiled naively, and then said: "It's no use rotting in the stomach anyway. Since the old doctor is willing to give him money, I will tell him."
After all, Taoist Ximen is already dead. They will never confront a dead person.
"Well, that little Taoist priest is treated as a guest even by the county magistrate. He does have some great powers."
When Li Ce heard that she was taught by Taoist Ximen, he no longer had any doubts.
Although that guy had evil intentions, he was indeed quite talented. Both he and Lin Jinxiao knew this.
But he still had other questions in his mind, so he shamelessly asked again: "I think my sister-in-law is also good at investigating doubts and solving cases. I guess she often listens to that man talk about county government affairs, so she is influenced by it, right?"
"Hehehe."
Chu Nan's gardenia smiles but does not smile.
As a person from the police academy, she has learned systematic professional knowledge, so why should she ask a novice for advice.
However, he was able to think about it this way, which saved him from trying to find reasons, and then he answered calmly: "I have indeed heard of it."
Neither of them mentioned whether they were having an affair.
After all, she was willing to expose the little Taoist priest for Lin Jinxiao. From this point of view, Li Ce believed that this woman was innocent.
Chu Nanzhi knew that mentioning this matter would not be beneficial to her, but when it came to catching thieves and seizing stolen goods, catching traitors and cheating, things without evidence would always turn into rumors.
If you continue to engage in detective work in the future, you will inevitably be exposed from time to time.
She had to find a defensible excuse for herself.
There are gains and losses, and she doesn't care about the rumors.
How can a person become a strong person if he cannot withstand rumors and ups and downs?
Looking at Li Ce, she smiled reluctantly and said slowly, pretending to be serious:
"Actually, your sister-in-law and I are lazy on weekdays, but that doesn't mean I'm really stupid. When I'm smart, I'm no worse than you men. I guess I was forced out by this crisis."
"Yes, yes, my sister-in-law's abilities are obvious to all."
Li Ce laughed with relief:
"No matter what outsiders say, I believe in my sister-in-law. Brother Jinxiao is my elder brother. He has treated me well since I was a child and gave me such a good job in the county government, so that our family does not have to go hungry. I am grateful.
He and my life belong to him. My sister-in-law saved my eldest brother, which means she saved me. She is my reborn parent, and you will all be my relatives from now on."
Chu Nanzhi was very moved when he heard these words.
In fact, there are not many people like them and his wife in the whole village.
No wonder Lin Jinxiao trusts him so much.
In the back room, Lin Jinxiao heard their conversation clearly.
After thinking about it carefully, I seem to think that what she said makes some sense.
Just hearing Taoist Ximen's name made him feel a little uncomfortable.
But she finally got rid of the little Taoist priest with her own hands.
No matter what her purpose is, this is a fact that cannot be erased.
After dinner, Chu Nanzhi packed the remaining mushrooms and rabbit meat for Li Ce to take back, and tidied up the kitchen from top to bottom.
She put the newly bought vegetables on a small shelf in a cold and damp place in the kitchen, placed them on it, and placed a basin of cold water below. Although it was not as effective as a refrigerator in keeping fresh, it could still barely hold three taels.
day, it will not wither immediately.
After calculating the remaining silver, plus the two taels of gold, the total is one hundred and fifteen taels.
This is already very rich for ordinary families, enough to last for several years even if they don't work.
The next day, the old doctor sent someone to deliver the remaining one hundred taels of silver, along with some valuable medicinal materials and ten branches of old wild ginseng, which gave Chu Nanzhi some new plans.
She decided to find time to go to a clothing store in the county to buy some new clothes for the family.
In fact, the four little guys are all handsome and charming, but if they wear rags all day long, they will inevitably be disliked by others.
She plans to send some of the remaining money to Liu Yun's family in a few days to check on the physical condition of the original owner's father.
But thinking about the Chu family's new son-in-law, she felt uncertain.
I vaguely remember that Liu Shuyang was a decent man when he first married into the Chu family. In the past two years, he had been hanging out with Qi Mochen and Lin Jinhong for a long time, and he was completely ruined.
Chu Nanzhi is not a person who can swallow her anger. Since she decides to help the Chu family, she will help to the end.
If this person is really hopeless, she doesn't want the entire Chu family to be dragged down by him.
