Chapter 2850 Murderer 2
Bai Shan had Dafu taken away, and Dafu's mother could only sit on the ground and cry as she watched the bailiffs take Dafu away.
The onlookers sighed and looked cautiously at Bai Shan who was standing in the yard. Seeing that although he had a stern face, he did not scold Dafu Niang, they tentatively took two steps forward.
Seeing that he didn't respond, he carefully stepped forward to support Dafu Niang and whispered to comfort her, "Don't cry, life is more important. I don't know what's happened to Dafu's family..."
Dafu Niang cried even louder.
Manbao found the two children, forgotten in a corner, huddled together in fear. He picked them up and handed them to Granny Jin, saying, "Please help take care of them for two days."
Grandma Jin glanced at Dafu Niang who was still sitting on the ground crying, sighed, took the child and agreed.
The doctor, who had been hiding aside and watching the whole lively scene, withdrew his gaze with a sense of unsatisfaction and saw Zhou Man standing aside and talking to Grandma Jin.
He went over to her and wanted to ask her how she had saved the life of the woman in labor under such circumstances.
To be honest, delivery is already difficult with an inverted fetal position, and if the baby falls and bleeds heavily, in this case, the baby will basically start to bleed at the beginning, and the most common situation is that the woman dies of bleeding before the baby is born.
So he was very curious about how she stopped the bleeding and helped the woman give birth so quickly.
I'm just a little embarrassed. I cheated someone this afternoon. No, he wasn't really a swindler, right? The tonic he prescribed wasn't wrong...
The doctor just came up and was about to speak when Bai Shan also came up.
Although no one spoke to Bai Shan, they kept their eyes on him secretly. After all, he was an official, so they had to keep an eye on him.
Bai Shan walked towards Zhou Man and asked, "Are you done? Do you want to go home?"
Manbao nodded, "Okay, let's go."
The doctor was stunned, and everyone in the yard was stunned as well. They didn't react until the two of them walked out of the yard, but no one dared to call Zhou Man again. They could only watch Zhou Man and Bai Shan leave side by side.
After the people left, the neighbors realized what was happening. They surrounded Dafu Niang and said, "So this woman invited the officials here."
For a moment, I didn't know whether to praise her good luck or sympathize with her.
Although this woman saved the rich family, she also sent the rich man to jail.
Dafu Niang felt like this day was just a dream. Her face was dull and she couldn't even make basic movements like crying.
The doctor was not like these ignorant women. As a doctor in a pharmacy, although he did not have much power, he was definitely more informed than these women.
He quickly guessed the identities of the pale-faced official and the woman with unusual actions.
My heart felt like it was boiling with oil. I couldn't stay there any longer, so I picked up my medicine box and left.
He trotted all the way back to Baicaotang. It was closed, but he didn't care. He knocked on the door and went straight to the backyard.
The backyard of Baicaotang was divided into two parts. One side was where the shopkeeper and his family lived, and the other side was the backyard of Baicaotang, used as a warehouse and for the doctors to live.
"Boss, something happened."
The shopkeeper asked calmly, "Did you harm the patient?"
"Oh, what do you mean by making the patient suffer? Am I a quack? I basically don't treat anything I can't cure. Do you know who I ran into today?"
"Doctor Shao from Renhetang, two houses away? Did you two get into a fight?"
"No," the doctor said aggrievedly, "I met Mr. Zhou, the director of the Qingzhou Medical Bureau, Mr. Zhou, the little miracle doctor in the capital."
The shopkeeper sat up straight, staring at him with wide eyes. "How did you meet her? Are you friends with her? Is she really as kind and amiable as the letter from the capital says?"
The doctor said gloomily, "What they said in the capital is complete nonsense. How can a woman in her teens or twenties be described as kind? Amiable, though forced, is far too cunning. She even came to our pharmacy today, pretending to be sick and asking for a child, so I prescribed her a soup recipe to regulate menstruation and replenish blood."
The shopkeeper never imagined that their fate with the legendary Mr. Zhou started from this, and he was silent for a moment.
"But that's not the most important thing. What was I saying? Oh, yes, I had an outpatient consultation today. Actually, it wasn't me who did it. I just provided some medicinal herbs. The patient was Mr. Zhou..."
Just as the doctor was talking, Manbao and his group returned to the county government office. Bai Shan personally watched the bailiffs take the three people to the jail and chose adjacent cells for their two families.
Beihai County was poor, and even the prison cells reflected that. The space between the two cells was not a wall as Bai Shan usually saw, but a wooden fence.
So the three of them can see each other as soon as they look up.
Bai Shan said to the guards, "Be alert at night and don't let them fight, even between husband and wife."
The officer agreed, and since the county magistrate had specifically instructed him to do so, he paid special attention to these three people.
When Bai Shan returned home, Manbao had just washed up and was waiting for him to eat with his hair still wet.
Bai Shan sat down opposite her and asked, "How is the mother doing?"
"It's not good," Manbao said, "She's been suffering from severe physical damage and a weak foundation. This hemorrhage was so severe, I don't know if she can recover."
Manbao's expression was unhappy. He said to Bai Shan, "The wealthy family deliberately caused the quarrel. It's obvious that they didn't intend to have this child from the beginning. But they probably didn't expect the Guo family to be so aggressive that they could treat a pregnant woman like her so harshly."
At that time, Manbao turned his head and saw the push. He saw clearly that the pregnant woman's legs were raised when she was pushed to the ground, which shows how great the force was.
Bai Shan also talked about his own investigation. "I asked the neighbors, and the conflict between the two families has been going on for a long time."
He said, "They live across the street. The Guo family put their firewood against the wall, and half of it would go away. They suspected that the Wu family had taken it. The Wu family would come back with water, and the bucket would bump twice and spill water. The Guo family would stand in front of the door and curse for a long time, saying that the Wu family had watered the ground and made it slippery and hurt people. There are so many things like this, too many to list."
Manbao sighed, "Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. How can life be interesting when the relationship between neighbors is like this?"
Bai Shan nodded: "I think the root of this conflict is the pregnancy of the wealthy family."
He said, "Wu Dafu and his wife have already given birth to two daughters. Not long after she became pregnant with her third child, rumors started circulating in the alley that she was also pregnant with a daughter."
Bai Shan paused, pursed her lips, and then said, "The Dafu family was beaten by Wu Dafu for this, but the child was not aborted. These days, the rumors are even more intense. Everyone says that her belly is small and round, and it is obvious that it is a girl."
Manbao was so angry that he couldn't even eat. "She can't even eat enough, and when she puts on loose clothes, you can't even see her belly. How can it be so big if it's not small?"
It was also because of this that she didn't realize that the other party was pregnant.
Moreover, her movements were very agile, and it was obvious that she had worked hard during her pregnancy, and she didn't even care about the fetus in her belly. Otherwise, a seven-month pregnant woman would hold her belly while walking.
See you at 6pm
