"Don't worry, no one can hurt me. But you all must be careful and not let any villains take advantage of the situation."
After Chen Qingqing finished speaking, she paused, then solemnly instructed,
"You must investigate Hu Yuniang secretly. Once you have a clear understanding of the matter, come and tell me immediately."
"Okay, I've got it." Chen Dabao turned to leave, but then suddenly remembered something and quickly pulled a large stack of banknotes from his pocket, handing them to Chen Qingqing. "Sister Qingqing, take this money, just in case." With that, he turned and left.
Life is unpredictable, and the world is full of uncertainties.
As Chen Qingqing watched Da Bao's departing figure, she felt a vague unease. Even if she found a clue, could it really clear her name?
What if the person behind this has a powerful background and is determined to kill her?
Fortunately, I had already gotten a general idea of the cell layout a couple of days ago.
She had prepared for the worst. If she really couldn't clear her name, she would never sit idly by and wait to die. Even if she had to become a wanted criminal, she would escape from here.
We must now prepare for both possibilities, lest our promising future be ruined before it even begins.
The simplest and most brutal method is to drug the jailers and then swagger out the door.
Just in case, we had to dig a hole in the back wall of the cell, just in case.
Without hesitation, Chen Qingqing activated her all-powerful spatial storage and selected the tools that suited her best.
Whenever the prison guards were drinking and having fun, she would start smashing the walls.
The wall was made of blue bricks, and she quickly removed one of them.
After the first piece was smashed down, the second piece was dug out, and the third piece was dug out. In less than two days, a hole that could be entered and exited was completed.
Looking at the few passersby on the street outside, Chen Qingqing smiled with satisfaction.
To avoid being discovered, she completely sealed it up with the original blue bricks, so that no one could tell the difference...
After leaving the prison, Chen Dabao hurriedly returned to the Ruyilou branch.
He repeated everything Chen Qingqing had said to Chen Feng without missing a single detail.
"Does Qing mean that someone is jealous of us and deliberately framed her?" Chen Feng asked in shock.
Da Bao nodded affirmatively, "Yes, the whole of Anyang is talking about this right now. Everyone knows the Chen family of Nanshan Village. Everyone knows that the Chen family produced a young girl who not only knows how to make sugar but also how to treat illnesses. In just one year, she became the richest businesswoman in Anyang."
Our family has no connections or powerful backers, so I think Qingqing is right; someone must be eyeing our family.
After listening to Da Bao's words, Chen Feng calmed down. He felt that his younger sister had always protected him and their family, and now it was his turn as the older brother to protect her.
He made a decision in his heart: if his little sister was really sentenced to death, he would try to storm the execution ground, even if it meant doing so.
“Da Bao, then listen to Qing Ya Tou. The Ruyi Lou branch will temporarily close. I will stay here to keep a close eye on the yamen’s movements. You go back to Nanshan Village to handle the sugar mill matter first, find out about Hu Yuniang’s interpersonal relationships, and come back to tell Qing Ya Tou as soon as possible. Don’t delay.”
After saying that, he turned to Wu Cuihua and said, "Cuihua, you go back to Nanshan Village with Dabao. If your parents find out about this, they will definitely be worried. Go back and comfort them. Come back after everything is settled."
Wu Cuihua nodded vigorously, "Okay, you need to take good care of yourself. Da Bao and I will leave right away."
Qingshui Town
The news that Jishetang had been shut down by the government spread like wildfire throughout the streets and alleys of Qingshui Town.
"Have you heard? Jishetang has been shut down by the government!"
"I heard yesterday that people have died from poisoning caused by Jishetang's medicine."
"Impossible. Miss Chen from Jishetang has superb medical skills. My stubborn headaches hadn't been cured by any doctor I'd seen, but after drinking a dose of herbal medicine prescribed by Miss Chen, my headaches were gone. With such superb medical skills, it's impossible for her to poison someone."
“Yes, I also believe that Jishetang is innocent. Back then, I was afflicted with a serious illness and tried countless herbal medicines, but none of them worked. I asked Doctor Chen for help, just to give it a try. To my surprise, he prescribed me a small packet of medicine, and after taking it for three days, I was cured. How could such a miraculous doctor kill someone?”
"Why don't you believe me? I was in Anyang buying goods a couple of days ago, and I saw with my own eyes that Miss Chen was thrown into jail at the yamen gate. It is said that there are witnesses and physical evidence, and I'm afraid this time she is in grave danger."
"How could such a thing happen? It's true what they say, good people don't live long, but evil people live for a thousand years."
"Who says otherwise? We finally opened a reputable clinic, and then this happened. Now we'll have nowhere to go for treatment if we ever have a headache or fever again!"
"You're exaggerating a bit. It's not like Jishetang is the only clinic in town. There's also Huichuntang right down the street!"
"Give me a break. The doctor at Huichuntang is terrible at treating patients, but he's incredibly greedy. He'll exaggerate a minor ailment into a life-threatening emergency. He won't even bother with you if he doesn't try to rip you off."
"You're right. Huichuntang is a shady doctor who only cares about making money. They don't care about the patients' lives at all. They just take your pulse haphazardly, rummage through your mouth, and look at you like they're checking an animal's teeth. Then they'll prescribe several large packets of herbal medicine. I guarantee you won't feel good from taking it, but you won't die either."
"Yes, if you put it that way, then Miss Chen from Jishetang truly embodies the heart of a benevolent doctor."
......
At a tea stall by the street, several people were drinking tea and talking.
Chen Zhancai, who had just woken up from a lazy nap, intended to go out for something to eat, but was suddenly drawn in by the chatter of the people around him.
He frowned slightly. Jishetang?
That brat's clinic seems to be called that. Could it be that she's really involved in a murder case?
If that's the case, then God has truly opened his eyes!
Should!
Serves you right!
You heartless, ungrateful brat, now you're getting your comeuppance!
How ignorant I am! How come I only just found out about something so wonderful?
If I had known earlier that that brat had been arrested, I would have bought a few strings of firecrackers to send her off.
He's neglected his duty! He's truly neglected his duty as the third uncle!
Today is such an exciting day! We have to add a couple more dishes to celebrate that brat getting into a murder case.
Chen Zhancai was so happy he almost wanted to roll around on the spot.
But he was still a little worried. What if something went wrong? Then all his joy would be for nothing.
To confirm the truth of the matter, he suppressed a smile, approached the group, and asked softly,
"Gentlemen, which Jishetang clinic were you referring to? What's the name of the doctor there?"
"There's only one Jishetang in Qingshui Town. Which other one do you think there is? Doctor Chen is a renowned female doctor. You don't seem stupid, so how come you don't even know that?"
Upon receiving confirmation, Chen Zhancai was overjoyed and wanted to laugh out loud. He couldn't help but blurt out, "Great! That's wonderful!"
