Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

The county magistrate patted the gavel to silence the noisy hall, "Come here."

Catch your head and cup your fists, "My lord."

The county magistrate ordered, "Go and summon the wife of the head of Hejia Village."

A woman in the crowd raised her hand and replied, "My lord, I am here."

The crowd made way for the woman to enter the hall.

The woman knelt down, "Minister Zhang Juan, I have seen you."

The county magistrate asked, "Where is the dress you bought for the woman?"

Zhang Juan said, "My lord, the skirt I bought was for my daughter's birthday. It rained heavily a few days ago and the skirt got wet. My daughter took it out to dry, but it disappeared when I collected the clothes in the afternoon. My daughter was crying." It's been a long time."

She looked at the peasant woman with angry eyes, "I didn't expect to be stolen by her."

The peasant woman was regretting that she had told the truth uncontrollably, her head buried, her body trembling slightly.

The county magistrate asked, "What about the needle she mentioned?"

"That needle..." Zhang Juan faltered, "When I was picking out a dress in the shop, I saw a needle fall on the floor, picked it up and took it away, and when I got home I put it on the table. If there is a flower on the skirt, I will give it to her."

So that's what happened!

The magistrate's eyes fell on He Da and He Er, "Do you know what your mother did?"

The two replied together, "I know."

The gavel fell, and there was a bang, and the hall was silent.

Just as the county magistrate was opening his mouth, an old man in his fifties broke into the door. As soon as he entered the hall, he knelt down and begged for mercy, "My lord, my wife and two sons are obsessed with ghosts. Please forgive me, my lord!"

The county magistrate was unmoved, and continued to announce the verdict, "This matter, Mrs. Wang is the mastermind, intentionally hurting people and defrauding others of their money. This trend cannot last long. Therefore, this county magistrate sentenced Mrs. Wang to five years' imprisonment and a fine of ten taels of silver."

Upon hearing the verdict, Mrs. Wang panicked, cried bitterly, and begged for mercy, "Your Excellency, Your Excellency, please forgive me! I won't dare anymore, never again, don't go to jail, I don't want to go to jail!"

The county magistrate ignored her and continued to issue the decree, "He Da and He Er are accomplices, helping the tyrants to abuse. This county sentences you two to three years in prison and fines you five taels of silver."

He Da and He Er looked ashamed, with bursts of despair in their hearts, and hurriedly begged for mercy, but the county magistrate didn't listen to them at all.

People have to pay for what they do, everyone is the same!

"Let them sign and pledge, and put them in prison."

"Yes, my lord."

The old man watched the three of them being imprisoned, leaving behind a silly daughter. He couldn't help crying for a moment. He knew he should have stopped it, but it was too late now.

The county magistrate said, "Catch the head, send someone to follow the old man to the house to get the money!"

Catch your head and cup your fists, "Yes, my lord."

"Retire!"

After the trial of the case, the people dispersed one by one, and soon the case spread all over the county, and when it was told, everyone couldn't believe it.

They scolded the farmer's wife for being devoid of conscience, for being a snake and a scorpion!

They all sympathized with that girl again, it was such a shame to be born in such a family.

Here, Chu Qingzhi, Tang Jinghong and the others walked towards the shop in silence, Wang's actions were too vicious, and they needed to slow down.

Zhan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang walked to Chu Qingzhi's side, Zhan Hongjun said, "Master, where is your home, let's go back quickly?"

Bao Linjiang quickly agreed, "Yes, Master, I've been looking forward to the journey."

"I'll be back right away." Chu Qingzhi then introduced everyone to each other, first getting to know each other.

The two teenagers hurriedly called Chu Qingyue Second Sister. They should have called Master Aunt, but it was too awkward. Anyway, they don’t need to be so particular in the village. Chu Qingzhi asked them to call them Second Sister. Just keep the respect for Master in mind. Care about these vain things.

Chu Qingyue was naturally happy, who wouldn't like such a smart young man.

When they came to the shop, everyone found that Sang Wanlu had come and was getting off the carriage, her movements and expressions were very anxious.

Sang Wanlu's eldest maid hurriedly helped her up, with a frightened expression on her face, "Madam, be careful, don't affect the fetal gas."

Chu Qingyue stepped forward quickly, "Wanlu, you are heavy, why are you here?"

Sang Wanlu worried, "I heard that something happened to the shop, so I came to see it."

Chu Qingyue smiled at her, "The trial of the case is over, the bad guys have been punished, it's all right."

"That's good." Sang Wanlu heaved a sigh of relief, her gaze skipped over everyone and landed on Chu Qingzhi, her eyes sparkled, "Qingzhi..."

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, "Congratulations."

Sang Wanlu bowed to Chu Qingzhi, and said gratefully, "Qingzhi, it's lucky to have met you, otherwise I wouldn't have such a blessing."

"I'm a doctor, I should." Chu Qingzhi blessed, "I wish you a lovely and healthy baby."

Sang Wanlu smiled and nodded, "Thank you."

The eldest servant girl stepped forward and said, "Miss Chu, can you prescribe an anti-pregnancy prescription for Madam? Madam has not let anyone prescribe it until now, and she doesn't trust other doctors."

Chu Qingzhi nodded, "Okay." She walked towards the shop, there were papers and pens inside, and Zhan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang hurriedly followed.

After the prescription was written, Zhan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang hurriedly picked up the prescription and looked at it. Some puzzled, they asked Chu Qingzhi for advice.

Chu Qingzhi still dotes on the two little apprentices, explaining to them one by one.

"So that's it, I've learned a lot!"

"Learning is boundless!"

Chu Qingzhi laughed, went out and handed the prescription to Sang Wanlu, "Three bowls of water boiled into one bowl, once a day, if you walk around more, there will be no problem."

"En." Sang Wanlu happily agreed, and then her expression gradually became serious, "Qing Zhi, I want to discuss something with you."

Chu Qingzhi said, "Say it."

Sang Wanlu looked at the shop, "I'm pregnant and it's inconvenient to take care of these shops, so I want to give the shop to Qingyue."

Chu Qingzhi looked at Sang Wanlu, "What do you mean?"

Sang Wanlu smiled and said, "I rented the shop, and the rent has been paid for half a year. The shop assistants are hired and paid every month. There is still some cloth in stock in the shop, and now all are handed over to Qingyue."

Chu Qingzhi asked, "Then how much will we pay you?"

Sang Wanlu shook her head, "No need, just treat that money as your money for my doctor's visit. It's much more expensive for me to conceive a child, so you don't have to be polite to me, I've already made up my mind."

Chu Qingzhi thought about it, what Sang Wanlu said just now would not exceed three hundred taels of silver, which is acceptable, "Then I will thank you on behalf of Second Sister."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Sang Wanlu waved to Chu Qingyue, "Qingyue, let's go to the store to handover, I won't come to the store tomorrow."

Chu Qingyue was dizzy from being hit by the pie, it was too unreal, "Really, really give me the shop?"

Chu Qingzhi came over and tugged on Chu Qingyue's sleeve, "Second sister, I really give it to you, you go to hand over the store, and the store will be yours from now on."

Chu Qingyue was still dizzy, and her reaction was also slow, "Oh, good."

Ning Yuting suddenly said, "Miss Qingzhi, I'll help Qingyue, you go home first, Grandma and Aunt Chu want to cry when they miss you."

Want to cry? Chu Qingzhi smiled, "Okay, then I'll leave the rest to you, I'll go back first."

"Don't worry, it will be done."

The four got on their horses and went home.
