"Does this kind of trivial matter still require Mr. Cai to take action?"
Cai He, who was sitting there slowly tasting the wine and delicacies, had no intention of getting up. He glanced at Tang Wan'er with contempt and drank the wine slowly. Tang Wan'er felt that he was simply an M now. Cai He was really in his mouth.
Not a single good word.
Then she, Tang Wan'er, would not let him continue to say that, and she would try to get her back no matter what.
"Well, I bet Mr. Cai is someone who only does big things. We, the common people, don't look down on him."
"Since Miss Tang is almost certain in her heart, why bother teasing Mr. Cai? Just go and show off your skills."
"Forget it, there's no point in arguing with you. I'll just lend you a hand."
So the soldiers ordered by Tang Waner asked them about their identities as she asked, and asked the soldiers to tell them that Tang Waner could figure out who the real owner of the copper coins was.
"Sir, do you really have a way to identify the owner of these copper coins?"
The innkeeper was doubtful.
Tang Wan'er smiled and just asked the boss to prepare a basin of hot water.
"The hot water is here, what should we do next?"
"Throw the copper coins into the hot water."
The waiter did as the boss ordered. Tang Wan'er looked at the situation in the hot water and thought, this is indeed the case.
"These coins belong to this plainly dressed guest."
Tang Wan'er pointed at the man who came in later.
"Miss, don't talk nonsense, the villain got this money from selling medicinal materials!"
"Indeed, you claim to be selling medicinal materials, and the other guy is selling pancakes and fruits. If you are selling medicinal materials, over time, the copper coins should have some smell of medicine or flowers; and if you are selling pancakes and fruits,
There will definitely be oil stains on the hands. I asked the guy just now. He often sells pancakes while collecting money. So, if the oil-stained hands touch those copper coins, there will definitely be oil stains on the copper coins. I asked him before
The boss threw the copper coins into the hot water just to see if there were any oil stains on the coins, so everyone can see the results."
A layer of oil floated on the surface of the hot water.
The matter was resolved quickly, and the person who stole the money was turned over to the authorities.
I don’t know if it was because of these things or something else, but Cai He’s attitude was a little more relaxed than before. After a few days of traveling, they were getting closer and closer to the capital. On this day, their carriages and horses were on the main road of Lu County.
, was blocked by an old woman.
"Go, go, don't you see this is the official vehicle of the patrol envoy? Don't block the road!"
"Is it a senior official? Senior official, please help the old woman."
The old woman who realized from the situation that it was a senior official and his entourage knelt in front of the convoy, blocking the road, and kept calling for help. When Cai He saw the commotion, he asked what was going on. His subordinate answered that it was a crazy old woman.
Blocking the road ignorantly.
When Tang Wan'er heard the old woman shouting about her grievances, she understood that this might be the rhythm of blocking the sedan chair to petition. Looking at the sad expression on the old lady's face, it didn't look like she was doing it for others.
When Tang Wan'er saw that Cai He didn't immediately get off the horse to check, she knew that if she didn't do something, the old lady's matter might not be done. She didn't think she was meddling in other people's business, so she asked the driver to get her into the carriage.
He stopped, walked straight to the old woman, and asked gently.
Cai He couldn't help but mutter to himself: "This young lady from the bachelor's mansion is so willful."
