Chapter 142: The Abducted Woman [I]



After dinner, the warm sun gently sprinkled on the street. Lin Yuexi took Wang Lijuan's arm and walked briskly towards "Bencao Yiyuntang". Along the way, the two talked and laughed, and the warm sun stretched their shadows out.

As soon as you step into the threshold of "Bencao Yiyuntang", the familiar medicinal fragrance hits your nose, lingering at the tip of your nose, making you feel inexplicably at peace.

Lin Yuexi took Wang Lijuan to the medicine counter with familiarity. After a while, all kinds of medicinal materials were accurately weighed and packaged by the waiters with skillful and smooth movements.

After getting the medicine, Lin Yuexi was not in a hurry to leave. She walked to the counter and started chatting with the guys.

She spoke sincerely and clearly to the doctor, "This is my second sister-in-law Wang Lijuan. Her family also grows Gastrodia elata. Can she send some to your pharmacy in the future? The Gastrodia elata she sends is of absolutely top quality. You can accept it without any worries."

"Okay, Dr. Lin, don't worry. As long as it's recommended by you, it must be correct. We will definitely charge according to the rules." The doctor on duty smiled and agreed readily.

Then she continued, "Last time I went to the main store in Beijing and met Master Bai. She said that you had studied Chinese medicine with him for several months. She said that you have a great talent for medicine and have learned all that he has learned in his life. If you can come to my pharmacy to see patients, I would also warmly welcome you."

"Master, you are bragging for me! How could I have learned all his medical knowledge? Besides, I am working in the county hospital now. The hospital does not allow me to come here to see patients." Lin Yuexi said with a smile.

The doctor waved his hand, and the smile on his face became more friendly: "Doctor Lin, Master Bai is not a person who exaggerates. Everyone can see your talent and hard work.

The county hospital is full of talented people, and you can also play a big role here. If you have the opportunity in the future, you must consider our pharmacy."

"Okay! If the county hospital doesn't want me anymore, I'll just stay in your 'Bencao Yiyuntang'..." Lin Yuexi said jokingly.

"Okay, as long as you are willing to come, my 'Bencao Yiyuntang' will always open its door to you..." said the doctor sincerely.

Lin Yuexi smiled and then took Wang Lijuan to say goodbye to them.

After seeing Wang Lijuan off, Lin Yuexi took Lu Ziyan and Lu Xiyun to happily stroll the streets for the whole afternoon.

The mother and her two children were happily carrying their bags and preparing to go home.

Suddenly, a woman bumped into her. Lin Yuexi was about to say that she didn't have eyes, but she saw a man chasing after her, cursing as he ran: "I told you to run, I'll beat you to death!"

The woman turned pale with fear and fell to the ground, holding her head with both hands, trembling. Lu Ziyan and Lu Xiyun hid behind Lin Yuexi tightly, watching this scene in amazement.

Lin Yuexi was filled with anger. She took a step forward, protected the woman behind her, and glared at the man: "What do you want to do in public? If you have something to say, talk it over nicely. What's the point of hitting someone?"

The man was shocked by Lin Yuexi's momentum and stopped in his tracks, but he still shouted angrily: "This is my wife. I teach my wife a lesson. What does it have to do with you?"

The woman on the ground raised her head while crying. There were still traces of tears and obvious bruises on her face. She cried and shouted, "I am not his wife. I was trafficked here. He locked me up at home every day and didn't let me go out. He also beat me every day. ..."

"You bitch, what are you talking about? Even if you hate my son for hitting you twice, you can't say you are not my daughter-in-law!"

At this time, a middle-aged woman in her fifties came over, pulled the woman up, and walked away while talking.

"Comrade, I'm really not her daughter-in-law. Please save me. I was really sold to her family by human traffickers..." The woman was dragged by the woman who claimed to be her mother-in-law and stumbled. She desperately asked Lin Yuexi for help.

At this time, two police officers on duty came towards them. Lin Yuexi suddenly had an idea, "Comrade, if you are really abducted, then you should ask for help from the two police officers opposite..."

When the woman heard Lin Yuexi's words, hope instantly ignited in her eyes. She struggled to break free from the middle-aged woman's pull and staggered towards the police, shouting at the top of her lungs: "Public Security Comrades, save me! I've been abducted!"

The two policemen heard the call and stopped immediately.

When the man saw the woman asking the police for help, he quickly stepped forward and covered her mouth and said, "Comrade Public Security, it's not like that. She is my wife. I had a fight with her today, and she walked out of the house..."

The middle-aged woman also said, "Comrade Public Security, this is indeed my daughter-in-law. If you don't believe me, I'll show you their marriage certificate..."

After saying that, he took out a marriage certificate from his bag.

The two police officers looked at the marriage certificate that the middle-aged woman took out and said, "Since you have a marriage certificate, you should go back and live your life properly. It's not proper to fight on the street..."

The woman cried loudly upon hearing this, "Comrade from the Public Security Bureau, they forced me to get this marriage certificate. I was really trafficked here..."

When the man saw the police saw the mother take out the marriage certificate and the police didn't care, he became bolder and slapped the woman in the face.

"You stinky bitch, if you don't beat her for three days, she will tear the tiles off the roof. Public Security Comrade, I will bring her back right away, so that she won't be embarrassed in public..."

The police saw the man beating the woman in front of them and said sternly, "Comrade, what family conflict can't you resolve? Why do you beat people in the street..."

At this time, there were already many passers-by watching around, and everyone started pointing and talking.

The mother and son panicked as they saw more and more people gathered around. They quickly said to the two police officers, "Comrade Police Officers, wasn't it because she pushed me into a corner that I did it? I promise that as long as she comes back with me, I won't hit him again..."

"No, Public Security Comrade, I won't go back. He is lying. If I go back with him, he will beat me to death..." The woman struggled and cried.

Seeing this, Lin Yuexi knew that the woman was telling the truth, so she stepped forward and said to the police: "Comrade Public Security, I think there is something fishy going on here. The scars on this woman's face are obviously not caused once or twice. How could a normal quarrel between a couple lead to such a fight? We can't let them off so easily."

The people around also echoed each other, condemning the behavior of the man and the middle-aged woman.

A gray-haired old man stood up and said indignantly: "Comrade Public Security, I have lived for most of my life and I have seen a lot of such things. There are too many poor people who have been abducted. You must investigate thoroughly and not let the bad guys succeed."

The crowd's voices grew louder and louder, and the two police officers immediately realized that this matter could not be handled hastily.
