Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun glanced at each other. Most of the sailors and boatmen on the ship had never read books and spoke rudely or with some accents. Only they and Li Jin from the shipping department spoke Mandarin, which was slightly So elegant.

"Lock him up first and go see Li Jin. Wu Liu, take a few people to look for the cook's son." Jiang Yichun and Bai Ruozhu thought together.

The two of them rushed to the top together and found Li Jin in his room.

"Master Jiang, Master Bai, what are you doing?" Li Jin looked confused, but Bai Ruozhu didn't know if it was because of his good acting skills.

"Li Jin, where were you when it was dark this morning?" Jiang Yichun asked, staring at him coldly.

Li Jin shivered when he saw him, "Xiaguan didn't go anywhere, he was just sleeping in the room."

"Who can prove it?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

"I live alone, who can I ask to prove it?" Li Jin became nervous, "What's going on?"

"Someone ordered the cook to poison this morning, and we have discovered it." Jiang Yichun said.

"What!" Li Jin was startled, "Who did it? Mr. Jiang, are you okay?"

His expression suddenly changed, "When you come to my place... you don't think it was me who ordered you, do you?"

Li Jin almost cried, "I am advising you to give Zheng Xin a chance to make amends, but I won't poison you for him. I wouldn't dare even if you gave me ten courages!"

Bai Ruozhu quietly glanced at Jiang Yichun. Li Jin didn't look like a poisoner.

She looked around the room and smelled it carefully. It didn't look like she had discovered the problem very quickly.

She walked over, pointed at a bit of powder and asked, "What is this?"

Li Jin looked at a bit of powder on a cabinet in his room in surprise, "I don't know. The house is cleaned every day. Maybe the boatman put it there."

"This powder is the medicine that was added to the meal in the morning." Bai Ruozhu said to Jiang Yichun.

Jiang Yichun suddenly glared at Li Jin, "I'll give you a chance to tell the truth. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. I have the highest official rank on this ship. Killing a junior official directly is not a problem."

He was already very cold and had murderous intent, which scared Li Jin so much that his legs and stomach started to tremble.

"Master Jiang, I really don't know. I swear, I swear, if I instruct the cook to drug you, I will die badly. I will be struck by lightning when it rains!" Li Jin cried in fright. While crying, he made a poisonous oath.

"It's empty talk. Don't leave the room for now, lest anyone threaten your safety. If you are indeed unjust, we can clear your name after we find out the truth." Jiang Yichun said.

Li Jin kept saluting, "Okay, okay, thank you Mr. Jiang, thank you Mr. Bai."

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun left Li Jin's room and immediately arranged for Yuan Licheng to guard him. Indeed, as Jiang Yichun said before, they were more afraid of him being killed.

"I don't think it was Li Jin who did it. You deliberately said that someone poisoned us and didn't mention the patient. If it was the real culprit, I'm afraid it would have been easy for him to leak the news." Bai Ruozhu said, "And his demeanor It’s not like cheating.”

Jiang Yichun also nodded, "I swore a heavy oath, he shouldn't have done it."

Ancient people respected ghosts and gods. If it was really Li Jin who did it, he would not dare to say that he was struck to death by lightning.

"Then who instigated the cook and then framed Li Jin? Is there a mole among us?" Bai Ruozhu thought of Mo Beishan for a moment, and Mo Beishan was the one who had the furthest relationship with them. , and there is no need for their own people to do such a thing.

"Don't guess now. After all, that person didn't succeed. If he takes action again, he will always show his fox's tail." Jiang Yichun said.

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "If his plan fails, he will try another one. We have to protect the patient."

The two went to the patient's side, and Bai Ruozhu checked him again. Not only did the old man lose too much blood, he was also malnourished due to long-term imprisonment, so his recovery was very slow.

Bai Ruozhu fed him a yellow pill to help him strengthen his physique and help him recover faster.

After such an interruption, breakfast was not finished. Fortunately, Wu Ya and his mother-in-law were very considerate and brought the food again, and Bai Ruozhu and the others took a few full bites.

In the afternoon, everyone brought everyone they found to the council room.

Among them was an old sailor who seemed to be a hard-working man, but had a somewhat cowardly character. There is also a middle-aged boatman. He always helps to collect the ropes, so he has noticed some rules of navigation. There are three other people, each of whom has learned something. In total, there are five people who form the helmsman’s think tank.

"The five of you will discuss it more. As long as you can figure out a route, you won't be bullied by Zheng Xin anymore." Bai Ruozhu said to them.

The old sailor with a cowardly personality asked worriedly: "Zheng Xin has relatives in the Shipping Department, could it be..."

Jiang Yichun glared at him, "Don't worry, the shipping department can't control me yet."

The old sailor trembled when he took one look at him and did not dare to ask any more questions.

Soon Wu Liu came to report that he had found the cook's son.

"He was just knocked unconscious. Nothing happened. He said he didn't see the other person at all." Wu Liu said.

Well, the clue is still broken.

Fortunately, there were no more storms in the next two days, and the person who secretly ordered the cook to poison her did not take any further action, as if he never found an opportunity to take action.

The seriously injured old man finally woke up.

"How do you feel? Do you still remember who you are?" Bai Ruozhu was called over by Qiu Zhi. Seeing the old man's dazed expression, Bai Ruozhu felt a little worried.

Fortunately, the old man's eyes slowly became clearer, "My eldest daughter, you saved me, right? I heard your voice in a daze."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "I treated you, and your health will gradually get better."

The old man sighed heavily, and his eyes slowly turned red, "Thank you, I have been locked up there for many years, and I finally see the light of day again."

"Who are you? Why are you being held there by Zheng Xin?" Bai Ruozhu asked hurriedly.

The old man suddenly became excited, causing a violent cough. Bai Ruozhu hurriedly helped him calm down, but the old man's face turned red, he rolled his eyes and fainted again!

Bai Ruozhu hurriedly gave him an injection, and his condition improved a little, but he was too emotional. If he was forced to wake him up and ask questions like this, he might die directly.

In this way, at night, Bai Ruozhu woke up the old man and asked Wuya to bring some rice porridge to feed him. Unexpectedly, the old man drank a few mouthfuls of porridge and said angrily: "I am his master!"

Bai Ruozhu was stunned for a moment, then realized that the "him" the old man was talking about was Zheng Xin!
