Chapter 109 Zhou Yanxiu's Plan
Although he was standing in the autopsy room that he was most familiar with, Wang Xiaoqian felt that something was quietly changing, just like his ordinary life, which had become a completely different experience because of this trip to Dongping County.
Holding the autopsy tools tightly in his hands, Wang Xiaoqian felt the urge to do a great job for the first time.
Zhou Yanxiu was also feeling uneasy. He had originally chosen to be an official in Dongping County just to temporarily get away from the turmoil in the capital. He was supposed to return to the capital when his term was up next year, but he didn't expect that in this last year, this small county would give him such a surprise.
As the newly verified autopsy notes were delivered, one could imagine the shock that would ripple through the court and the people of the Jin Dynasty. This work could be said to be a lasting legacy, and the man who initiated this revolutionary coroner system, along with all his subordinates, would leave a lasting mark in the history of the Jin Dynasty.
Such an achievement is something he could not achieve even if he served as the county magistrate of Dongping County for decades. Once this is accomplished, the gap between him and the powerful children in the capital will be completely widened.

Zhou Yanxiu hesitated for a few days before finally writing a letter and handing it to Qi Moxuan. "I believe this letter is very important to Mr. Nancheng. His works have benefited me greatly. Now, I intend to take the lead in compiling a new Dajin Coroner's Autopsy Notes based on Mr. Nancheng's works. Mr. Nancheng should be given the first place for this contribution. I ask Manager Qi to ensure that this letter is delivered to Mr. Nancheng as soon as possible."
Qi Moxuan took the letter handed to him by Zhou Yanxiu with great trepidation. He didn't understand how things had become so serious.
Qi Moxuan held the letter as if it were a hot potato. He had a premonition that Mr. Nancheng's secret would no longer belong to him alone.
But Qi Moxuan didn't delay and gave the letter to Fan Hui that night, asking her to deliver it to the girls' school early in the morning. Qi Moxuan didn't tell Fan Hui what Zhou Yanxiu had said. It wasn't that he didn't trust his wife, but sometimes less trouble is better than more.
Because the baking oven was designed by Cui Qingyi herself based on her memories of her previous life, she was afraid that any problems would arise during the process and delay its future use. In the past few days, Cui Qingyi would visit the girls' school from time to time.
The stove in the backyard of the girls' school has been set up. The stove is the same one that ordinary people use in their homes and there is nothing special about it, but the two brothers of the Qiao family did a meticulous job and smoothed the gaps between the bricks. Cui Qingyi was very satisfied when she saw it.
A baking oven had just been lit, and Qiao Yishi was in the process of lighting it. This was the first time he had made an oven of this shape, so he wanted to light it and see if he could achieve the baking and heat preservation effects that Konjac had mentioned.
He lit the fire while Konjac passed dry wood beside him. After just a few days, the two of them had developed an unspoken tacit understanding.
It was Wangcai who first discovered Cui Qingyi's existence. He was sleeping in the shade. A familiar fragrance came to him in his dream, and the lazy big black dog quickly woke up.
Cui Qingyi originally thought that it would be better for her not to show up at this time, but before she could step back, a huge black shadow pounced at her legs, and it was so excited that it seemed as if they hadn't seen each other for several months.
They had just handed over the puppies last night.
Konjac and Qiao Yishi looked over at the same time. Cui Qingyi cleared her throat awkwardly and said, "Well, let me see how the oven is doing."
Qiao Yishi hurriedly made way for Konjac and pointed at the burning oven. "We just finished one. Miss Konjac and I told her to light it and try it out. If it doesn't work, we can make some changes."
Konjac didn't say anything, just looked at Cui Qingyi and smiled.
Cui Qingyi took a closer look at the oven and could tell that the two Qiao brothers had made it strictly according to her drawings. The appearance was exactly the same as Cui Qingyi remembered.
"It looks good. Thank you and Brother Qiao for your hard work." Cui Qingyi said politely.
Qiao Yishi grinned, he was afraid that he might do something wrong and make Miss Cui unhappy.
Cui Qingyi was not dissatisfied with anything. She hoped that Konjac could find a good man to marry and live a peaceful and smooth life in the future.
She also had no intention of relying on her status to control Qiao Yishi for Konjac. From now on, they would live together as a couple. She treated Qiao Yishi better now so that Qiao Yishi wouldn't use her attitude to talk to Konjac about it in the future.
Cui Qingyi took a look and felt that there was nothing wrong with the production of the oven, so she turned to find Aunt Qin. Qiao Yishi looked at Cui Qingyi's back and breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though Miss Cui was always gentle and courteous every time they met, he still felt inexplicably intimidated. Qiao Yishi attributed this to the fact that Miss Cui was a member of Konjac's family, a noble and capable one at that. Since he had a crush on Konjac and wanted to marry her, he naturally had to please her family.
Konjac found Qiao Yishi's long breath amusing and moved closer to him.
It only takes a few moments for a young man and a young woman to develop feelings for each other and for their relationship to progress rapidly. At least after a few days of spending time together, Konjac and Qiao Yishi's relationship had become noticeably closer. Of course, this intimacy existed only between them; in front of outsiders, they were very discreet.
"Are you afraid of my girl?"
Konjac asked with a smile. Cui Qingyi had said long ago that they should call each other sisters. Konjac usually called Cui Qingyi "sister" in front of outsiders, but when facing Qiao Yishi, Konjac would always call Cui Qingyi "my girl."
She didn't mind letting Qiao Yishi know that she used to be a servant, and she also wanted Qiao Yishi and the Qiao family to understand that the girl was willing to be nice to her because she was a good person, but she had to know her limits.
If Qiao Yishi wants to be with her, he must understand this: the girl is someone she must respect, and Qiao Yishi must also respect the girl when they are together.
The girl is not her, nor is she someone that her future husband's family can do whatever they want with.
After being a teacher for more than half a year, perhaps because I have grown older, Konjac has become more and more rational in thinking.
Qiao Yishi lowered his head and moved slightly closer to Konjac, and whispered, "It's not that I'm afraid, I'm just worried that I might do something wrong and make Miss Cui dislike me." She won't marry you to me.
Qiao Yishi kept the last sentence in his heart and didn't dare to say it out loud. He felt that now was not the right time.
Aunt Qin was sitting in the classroom dedicated to the literacy class, writing lesson plans. She had already written a lot of lesson plans, and she felt that she had a good grasp of this introductory course.
But the closer it got to the opening day of the girls' school, the more Aunt Qin felt that nothing was perfect and everything needed improvement.
Seeing Cui Qingyi coming, Aunt Qin stopped writing, pressed the paper with a paperweight, and then turned around to talk to Cui Qingyi.
"Do you know about the story between the Qiao family kid and Konjac?"
Aunt Qin had been at the girls' school every day these days. As a person with extremely keen observation skills, she naturally noticed the interaction between Qiao Yishi and He Konjac.
