Chapter 243 Is it her?
"I didn't!! Doctor Yin, I thought I was just helping to start the fire!"
Men are so scared that they pee.
"We have inquired about it. You built a brick house and slept in a stone house. Even if there was a fire, at most you would be smoked for a while, which would be a lesson for you! I really don't know if he was planning to confuse you!"
There is a huge difference between arson and murder.
(An explanation is given at the end of the previous chapter, you can go back and take a look.)
The man was really frightened, with tears and snot all over his face, crying harder than a child. He kept begging Yin Huaixi to forgive him and let him go.
The sound was so sad that it broke the heart of those who heard it and brought tears to those who saw it.
It looks pitiful, but also hateful.
Yin Huaixi thought, if I didn't have some skills in making medicine and Li Xiao was not here, would you guys let me and my daughter go after you climbed over the wall?
The reason you are crying so hard now is just because you were caught.
If he hadn't been caught, he would have happily returned home with the money.
If you didn't intend to kill anyone, then is arson right?
No matter what, he came here with malicious intentions.
Yin Huaixi was not one to show mercy. She found a few pieces of cloth, rolled them into a ball and used it to cover all of their mouths.
I plan to wait until dawn to deal with the rest.
The three of them lit the lamp and went to the pharmacy.
"Doctor Yin, can you guess who wants to harm you?"
Yin Huaixi looked at Li Xiao's worried eyes, and shook her head, saying, "I have no idea. I don't know any master. I do know Lord Qin, but I have only met him a few times. His wife shouldn't act rashly."
"It's not necessarily because of the old man. If someone wants to do something, they will always find a reason."
Jiang Wan frowned and thought about all the wealthy families in the city that might be related to her family.
Fu family?
I haven't contacted Mr. Fu for a long time, so it can't be him.
Master Qi?
That's even more impossible.
One hundred taels could cost him his life.
Neither will Dongfuju.
They also pointed to their own supply of oyster sauce and were very nice. Even if Hailing Company had the stock, he would go there to buy it instead of killing people.
I'm not sure about Cangsu City, but if there's competition, they might take action. I'll ask Boss Zhang and the others about this when the time comes.
In Hailing City, there are actually not many wealthy families that have some connection with his family.
Neither the mother nor the daughter could figure out who it was, and Li Xiao, a mountain man, was even less able to guess who it was.
He was worried.
I went down the mountain a few times, and twice I encountered someone trying to kill the mother and daughter. Although the medicine on the wall was very powerful, there were ways to avoid it.
What if someone is well prepared next time? The mother and daughter are so weak that they will be bullied.
Li Xiao's heart was about to explode when he thought of that possibility.
No, he will still have to guard outside the tree from now on.
There was silence in the room for a moment.
Jiang Wan had no idea what to do so she took out the medical records that A'niang kept and looked through them.
This booklet records the names of patients and their symptoms every day, as well as prescriptions, etc. It has been her mother's habit for many years.
As I was flipping through the pages, I suddenly saw a name called Mrs. Unknown among a bunch of names.
Jiang Wan paused, and immediately thought of Madam Min.
she……
She had been treated by A-niang before, and A-niang knew that she was infertile. Now she is pregnant again.
The Min family was so wealthy, and the nonexistent child in her belly would surely bring her a lot of wealth. So she couldn't bear the risk of her illness being exposed, and she had the motive of finding someone to kill her mother.
Jiang Wan held the piece of paper with a serious look in her eyes.
She had a strong intuition that the person who did it was Mrs. Min.
"Wanwan?"
"Mother, I'm fine. I just have some ideas."
Yin Huaixi immediately looked at the piece of paper in her daughter's hand, her eyes becoming serious.
That day, when her daughter came home from the birthday banquet, she had already told her that Mrs. Min was diagnosed with pregnancy due to vomiting at the banquet.
This matter had nothing to do with her family, and she didn't want to get involved in the private affairs of a wealthy family. So she just treated her daughter's words as gossip and just listened to them.
Now, if I don't mix it in, trouble will come to me.
If that woman really did it, she will regret it for the rest of her life.
Yin Huaixi silently put the book away.
"It's too late today, let's all go to bed early. We'll send those people to the government office tomorrow."
Since human life is involved, the short man might not confess so easily.
Leave professional matters to professionals, and let the yamen runners interrogate them thoroughly when the time comes.
The three of them dispersed, the lights went out, and silence returned to the yard.
The next morning, Baozhu and Anan were waiting outside the yard hand in hand.
They didn't come very early. Normally Jiang Wan would have been up at this time.
However, due to the ordeal last night, both mother and daughter fell asleep very late and were unable to get up in the morning.
Even Li Xiao only came to his senses when he heard his good brother calling him.
"Brother Xiao, I think I heard the voices of Anan and Baozhu, go open the door for them."
Li Xiao responded and went out to open the yard door a crack.
"Uncle, why are you acting so strange today? You opened the door with such a big gap. Are you afraid that someone will come in?"
While Anan was asking the question, his eyes were fixed on the people tied up in the corner of the yard, and he was suddenly startled.
"Uncle, uncle!! Who are they?"
Baozhu was also startled and immediately hid behind Anan.
Why are there suddenly several tied-up men in Master's house? ?
"Last night these guys tried to climb over the wall and set fire but were caught."
"Ah?! Are Master and Xiao Wan okay?"
Both girls were very worried.
"Don't worry, the person was caught before he could even get in."
Li Xiao looked at the people in the corner. Their eyelashes were trembling and their eyes were rolling. They looked awake at a glance.
These people are really good at pretending.
"You two should stay away from them. When your master wakes up, she will deal with them herself."
Li Xiao was afraid that the two little girls would soften their hearts when they saw those men showing weakness, so he strongly asked them not to get close.
Baozhu and Anan didn't think too much about it. They were more worried about the situation of their master and Xiaowan.
Fortunately, after a good night's sleep, both mother and daughter have recovered their spirits.
They wore their best clothes and combed their hair beautifully.
Today they personally sent the person to Lord Qin and waited for the exact result.
"Anan Baozhu, you two have a day off today, go and have fun. Master has to go to the city to do some work."
The two little girls looked at each other, raised their eyebrows, and understood each other's thoughts.
"Master~~We want to go too, please take us with you~"
"Master~~"
The two little girls hugged Yin Huaixi's arms, one on each side, and shouted at her until she felt numb all over.
