Chapter 41 That bandit...was arranged by the old lady?
"As soon as I received your message, I arranged for people to go to Yunyin, halfway up the mountain. What will happen there in the future that deserves your attention?"
Song Mingen asked, "Do you still remember what Ji Wuchen said when he came to deliver the prescription?"
"He said Sister Yu dreamed of you being poisoned by an arrow..." Wen Can quickly realized, his eyes widening. "Could Sister Yu be dreaming that a wanted criminal will soon appear at the Yunyin Inn? It seems like we can just sit back and wait for the criminal to come and get the reward easily this time!"
Song Mingen smiled and said, "You have a broad mind. No wonder you have so many ideas to make money. However, they are not criminals wanted by the court, but horse bandits."
"Horse bandits?"
"Sister Yu dreamed that our family of three would be killed by bandits at the Yunyin Inn halfway up the mountain."
"Did I hear it wrong?" Wen Can couldn't believe it.
Song Mingen looked at him solemnly, "You heard correctly. Sister Yu dreamed that I was hit by a poisoned arrow, and it was so accurate. If we hadn't taken precautions, our family of three would have died in the Yunyin Inn halfway up the mountain."
Wen Can opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time.
This was so shocking to him!
Can Sister Yu’s dreams always be so accurate?
"Since Sister Yu's dream is possible, why don't you three stay at the Banshan Yunyin Inn...? Why are you going to the Banshan Yunyin Inn? Are you going to Xuancheng for a trip?"
Song Mingen smiled and said, "I went to the capital to visit my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Your sister-in-law missed her family..."
Wen Can drank several cups of herbal tea before he suppressed the excitement and shock in his heart.
"Are you all going?"
"Yes, Achan, we'll go to the capital when Mingzhu comes back."
Wen Can said, "If the old lady wants to come with us, then don't stay at the Yunyin Inn halfway up the mountain. Walk another twenty miles to Xuancheng Posthouse."
Song Mingen shook his head, "We have to go! We have to let the dream happen naturally. In the dream, only our family of three died at the hands of horse bandits."
With a clang, a teacup slipped from Wen Can's hand and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.
"Brother, dreams...dreams are all fake and can't be taken seriously."
Wen Can really wishes he was a blockhead.
He has been good friends with Song Mingen for more than 20 years and is also the second-in-command of Suzaku Pavilion.
In addition to having ideas for making money, his brain also has good reasoning ability.
"Whether it's true or not, the truth will be revealed on that day. Oh, by the way, how's the Chen family's situation going?"
"I came here to tell you this. The prefect is personally handling this matter. The evidence is irrefutable. Within three days, the Chen family will be convicted and sentenced. Their property will be confiscated, and they will be exiled and beheaded."
Song Mingen said, "The Chen family in the capital is a baron's family. Doesn't the prefect care about them?"
"The Chen family of Penglai County is just a branch of the Chen family in the capital. The relationship is very distant. I should go see the old lady."
Wen Can picked up the prepared gift box and put it down after a moment.
Looking at Song Mingen's face full of resentment, "If I hadn't gone to Cuican Building, I wouldn't have known that I was in debt..."
Seeing Wen Can coming to see her empty-handed, Chen Chunhua exchanged a few polite words. Then, despite looking listless, she forced herself to stay alert and said to Wen Can, "Xiao Can, can you talk to your uncle about giving you some extra time for the wine money..."
"Aunt, please stop worrying about these mundane matters. Just focus on recuperating and get well soon. Go to the capital sooner rather than later. There's no rush for the wine and drinks..."
Wen Can deliberately paused for a moment to take in the joy in Chen Chunhua's eyes.
He continued, "Just pay us for the drinks before you go to Beijing. Rui Ge'er has a better chance of passing the entrance exam in Beijing than in Penglai County. I, your nephew, would like to congratulate the old lady in advance."
At this time, Chen Chunhua not only lacked energy and spirit, but her complexion also turned a little paler.
"Thanks to your good wishes, my brother Rui will definitely pass the imperial examination in the future. Ming'en, please take Xiaocan to dinner. Don't neglect him."
"Okay, mother."
Chen Chunhua looked at the departing figure with an unfriendly look.
No one can hinder her eldest grandson's career!
The next day, Chen Chunhua asked Song Minglang to go to the county to sell the shop.
Asi reported to Song Yu everything that happened in the Song family every day.
"A Si, go to the mountains and see if you can find any injured wild rabbits or wild goats."
Ah Si glanced at the sow lying under the big poplar tree, which was saved by Song Yu's caesarean section.
To be precise, it is a sow that is half a person's height with a black head and a black back to the buttocks.
"Miss, how about you cut me? Will that help you learn seppuku faster?"
Song Yu looked at his small body and said, "This seppuku is a rare medical technique. Using it to treat patients is also rare. It is also very risky and can easily lead to death. Right now, I am just trying to master this medical technique. I will start practicing on injured small animals. As for using it on humans... I will have the opportunity soon."
Those "horse bandits" who harmed them in the previous life must not be let off, as they can be used as training.
"Okay miss, I'll go up the mountain right away."
"Wait, Ah Si. If you haven't found her yet, forget it. After you go down the mountain, go straight back to Wushuang Village. My aunt should be arriving in the next two days. I want to be the first to know when she returns to the village."
"good."
"Miss, the little tower of incense has taken shape. Come and have a look."
Bai Lan came over with a tray of thumb-sized incense sticks.
Song Yu handed Bai Lan an antidote pill, picked up a small incense tower, placed it on the stone table in the yard, and lit it with a fire stick.
The sparks and white smoke disappeared in just a moment.
"Miss, it seems to have worked. There is no fragrance."
Song Yu sniffed gently and said, "If you smell it carefully, you can still smell the fragrance of medicine."
Bai Lan sniffed carefully again but still couldn't smell anything.
She gave up.
She didn't have the young lady's keen sense of smell, and she only learned the basics of medicine.
A quarter of an hour later, the birds in the cages, the ducks and rabbits on the ground, and the sow tied to the tree all fell asleep.
Seeing this, Bai Lan said excitedly, "Miss, you really succeeded in developing this. It will be much easier to trap scumbags next time."
Song Yu smiled and nodded, "There are still many good people in this world, but the scum are hiding among the good people, and it is difficult for us to distinguish them with our eyes."
"Miss, you're right. If we have it, can we easily defeat the bandits when we go to Yunyin in the middle of the mountain?"
Song Yu narrowed his eyes. "Wouldn't it be too easy for them to take down the bandits so easily? We should have taken the detoxification pills and pretended to be unconscious that day to find out the mastermind behind this."
Bai Lan suddenly had an idea and realized the terrible truth.
That day at Fuxiang Building, she not only saw the eldest young master, but also the young master of the Chen family...
"Miss, when you hit the bug on the young master's face last time, were you just trying to vent your anger by hitting him? I remember the young master wanted to take you to the county to meet his classmate. That person was that scumbag from the Chen family, right?"
Song Yu nodded, "That's the one I'm going to hit!"
Bai Lan now confirmed her suspicions. "So... those bandits at the Yunyin Inn in my dream were... arranged by the old lady?"
“We’ll know on that day.”
＊
"Madam, we will arrive in Penglai County this afternoon. Should we stay overnight in the county or go back to the village directly?"
"Return to the village."
Song Mingzhu didn't know whether Zhang Yuan had stabilized Old Jiang in Yancheng.
The most urgent thing is to go back to the village and take Song Yu away.
As for finding a husband for her in Beijing, it was just an excuse to keep her elder brother and sister-in-law in check.
