Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Bai Ruozhu feels that the reputation of welcoming guests is very important, and making money is also important, but no matter how important it is, his own conscience is more important.

She quickly finished giving the fat man a set of injections. The fat man woke up and vomited a mouthful of blood, but his face looked much better.

That was congestion accumulated in his body due to internal bleeding, and it would be better to spit it out.

"What the hell is this place? I will never come to welcome guests for dinner again, nor will I let my relatives and friends come. I almost lost my life here." The fat man cried and said as soon as he woke up, Seeing that he still had the energy to curse, it showed that the injury was not a problem.

Bai Ruozhu ignored the fat man and continued to inject another person with internal injuries. Soon the person stopped vomiting blood, took one of the pills Bai Ruozhu gave him, and his complexion improved.

Bai Ruozhu then treated other people's injuries, and bandaged those with wounds. After she finished all this, the government officials arrived, and the person she arranged to pick up the medicine box also came back.

She took the best golden sore medicine from the medicine box and distributed it to the injured, telling them how to apply it.

At this time, the head catcher came in and asked: "Is the accident when we welcome guests man-made? What did you find?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly looked at Bai Zepei, because Bai Zepei also discovered the problem. He had been busy treating the injured, and he didn't have time to ask him what he had discovered.

Bai Zepei looked at the head catcher, bowed and saluted, and said, "This is Bai Zepei, the new graduate of the Royal Academy. Please send me to take a look at this place."

When the arresting officer heard that the person was being promoted, he thought that there was no guarantee that he would be able to go to high school next year, and that he might become a Beijing official in the future, so he had to be more polite.

"Okay, please give me Mr. Bai's advice." The catcher returned the greeting and walked over, speaking more politely.

At this moment, Bai Ruozhu asked the shopkeeper for paper and pen to write the prescription, but the corners of her mouth were still slightly raised. Her second brother was indeed very meticulous in handling things. He first identified himself and spoke with more weight, so the matter was easier to handle.

Bai Zepei's actions attracted everyone's attention. Although all the guests who came to welcome him had fled, the injured and accompanying people were still left and could not leave, so they just happened to follow and hear what was going on.

He pointed to the broken section of the railing and said: "Although the railing was broken accidentally, you can find clues if you look closely at the fracture. This railing was soaked in the water of the wick. As long as there is a little cut, it will be very... It breaks easily, and if you didn’t know about the wick, you probably wouldn’t have discovered it at all, and you’d just think it was caused by years of disrepair.”

After hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly answered, "Sir, we just renovated it three months ago. The railings were replaced with new ones only after they were removed. The quality was also checked at that time. It is definitely not in disrepair."

The catcher looked at Bai Zepei and asked, "What is the wick?"

"I have read about this in my sister's medical book. There is a kind of wick flower. When it is in full bloom, remove the stamens and dry them in the sun. Then soak the stamens in water to make even the hardest wood lose its toughness. Just a little scratch will It can make the wood break easily," Bai Zepei said.

Tang Feng, who was standing on the second floor at the moment, reached out and touched the fence that connected the pillars, and even put it to his nose and sniffed.

"Then how do you prove that this railing has been soaked with some kind of wick?" This was the first time the catcher had heard about wicks, so he was still cautious.

"As mentioned in the book, the water in which the wicks are soaked will have a sour smell, but it does not smell like moldy wood. Instead, it smells like sour pickles. Brother Chai will know after smelling it." Bai Zepei pointed to the break on the railing and said: "And here, the cut at the edge is too neat. It was obviously cut by someone with a knife. It is only a very shallow part. If you didn't know about the wick, who would have thought that such a shallow cut could break the railing?"

Bai Ruozhu nodded. Her second brother had a good memory. He had taken her medical book and flipped through it before. Unexpectedly, he had memorized such an inconspicuous thing as a wick, and it was mentioned in the book that wicks are used as medicine. , this feature has only been briefly mentioned in two sentences.

The catcher came closer to the railing and smelled it. Sure enough, he smelled the sour smell that Bai Zepei described at the fracture. He looked at Bai Zepei with more admiration.

"Young Master Bai is indeed well-informed. From this point of view, this thing seems to be man-made. But as for who did it and who is the mastermind, we need to investigate carefully." The catcher said and looked to the side. The shopkeeper stood there and asked: "Have there been any suspicious people coming and going recently when welcoming guests? Or are there any suspects?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly told what he had discovered, but he did not name the suspect, but said: "Brother Chai also knows that we do good business in welcoming guests, and we are loved by many noble people in Beijing. It is normal for some people to be red-eyed." of."

The catcher rolled his eyes, and he probably understood what the shopkeeper meant, which meant that it was probably the hand of the competitor who was welcoming the guests.

Bai Ruozhu had already written a prescription at this time, mainly for the three seriously injured people. She asked the shopkeeper to arrange for the clerk to get the medicine, and said to all the injured: "I feel sorry for causing you all to be injured, so today's meal money will be It’s free, and it’s free for everyone to welcome guests and have dinner within this month.”

Everyone was a little excited after hearing this. You must know that it is still the beginning of the month, and you can get a lot of money for welcoming guests to eat. One month is free, and they are making a lot of money!

"Does Doctor Bai have the final say?" someone asked worriedly.

Bai Ruozhu smiled and said, "I also have some shares in welcoming guests, so I can still make the final decision on this matter."

"Great! You're welcome then. I lost a lot of blood, and I'll have to wait for the guests to make up for it later." The man said cheerfully.

"The shopkeeper takes note of these guests and is not allowed to charge them for meals this month." Bai Ruozhu emphasized to the shopkeeper again.

"Yes, yes, I will obey the madam's instructions." the shopkeeper said.

The official sent someone to take some evidence. The broken railing couldn't be moved away entirely, so the head catcher asked someone to cut off a small piece. He then collected several people's confessions and went back to report to Jing Zhaoyin.

Tang Feng walked down from the second floor. He smiled at Bai Zepei and said, "Brother Bai is indeed better than me. Brother Bai won today's competition."

Bai Zepei frowned and said, "If the results of the third round are not announced, it will not be considered a victory or defeat. Let's compete again in the future."

Tang Feng smiled and said, "You know the wick, you're one step ahead of me."

Bai Zepei raised his hand to him, but said no more.

The injured here have been taken care of, and the officials have returned after checking. Bai Ruozhu asked the shopkeeper to hire several carriages to send several people home, leaving only the three most seriously injured, and they drank medicinal soup. leave.

Tang Feng also left at this time. Bai Ruozhu approached her second brother and asked, "Didn't he help you last time in Jiangnan? Why did they fall out and start fighting again this time?"

Bai Zepei smiled and shook his head, "It's not that we fall out, but it's because we cherish each other that we like to meet and compare notes and compete."
