Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

Lin Xiao turned pale with shock, and grabbed the autopsy report from Zhao Qian's hand to read it.

She thought that the job brought by Zhao Qian could clear her innocence, but she didn't expect that it would actually fulfill her "criminal" facts.

"Please don't doubt my professionalism, sir."

Seeing that Lin Xiao didn't believe his words, Wu Zuo said with some displeasure.

"Have you checked everything?"

Zhao Qian confirmed again.

"The inspection is clear, and there is no doubt that poisonous salt has been eaten."

Hearing Wu Zuo's swearing words, Zhao Qian looked suspiciously at Lin Xiao who was carefully reading the autopsy report.

Could it be that they really died after eating the poisonous salt made by Lin Xiao?
Do not!
Absolutely impossible!
He still believed in Lin Xiao.

After reading the autopsy report, Lin Xiao ran to the corpses again, ignoring the smell of corpses, and directly lifted the white cloth covered with blood stains.

I saw that they were all sallow and thin, and they looked like they were malnourished!

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiao seemed to have thought of something, turned around and asked Wu Zuo:

"Excuse me, is there food residue in their stomachs?"

Wu Zuo was stunned, apparently puzzled by Lin Xiao's sudden question.

"Most of the food residue is still there, and it should have died of poison not long after eating it."

"What was their last meal?"

"There are wild boar meat, rice, fish and some wild vegetables."

Sure enough!

Lin Xiao looked at Zhao Qian with a twinkle in his eyes:
"Master Zhao, do you see the problem?"

Zhao Qian nodded:
"Looking at their appearance, they should look like they haven't had enough to eat for a long time. How can they eat wild pork and rice?"

In the Great Xia Dynasty, because fish meat was not seasoned with refined salt, under normal circumstances few people ate it, unless they were really poor.

As for wild vegetables, this is an ingredient that can be seen everywhere, and it is not surprising that families with poor conditions will eat it.

But this wild pork and rice, ordinary families dare not make this, let alone poor people.

Because domestic pork always has a smell of mutton, few people eat it, so no one raises it in captivity, so all the pork that can be bought is wild boar.

Wild boars are ferocious and require many people to catch them. Therefore, the price of wild boar has always been high.

Poor people basically cannot afford it.

So is rice.

Rare things are more expensive!
But now, the thirteen members of the Shi family ate wild pork and rice for their last meal.

Everyone knows what this means.

"Come here, let's check the financial status of the thirteen members of the Shi family!"

Zhao Qian ordered.

"Yes!"

A policeman said respectfully, turned and left.

"Mr. Zhao, thank you for clearing my name. I, Lin Xiao, owe you a favor!"

Lin Xiao clasped his fists to Zhao Qian and thanked him.

"Brother Lin said it too early. When I clear you of your crimes, it won't be too late to thank me then."

Zhao Qian laughed and said, not caring about such a false name.

What he cares about is how to further develop his relationship with Lin Xiao, and then recommend him to his uncle Wang Tuo.

At that time, he will definitely be able to take the place of Brother Sigui in Wang Tuo's heart!
"No matter what, I will remember this kindness."

At the same time, Linjiacun was in a panic because of the poisonous salt incident.

Not long after Lin Xiao was taken away by Zhao Qian, people from the government came.

They broke into Lin Xiao's house aggressively, claiming that Lin Xiao was suspected of producing poisonous salt, which poisoned thirteen members of Shi's family to death!

Huarong, who scared Lan Lian and Han Ruoshui who were making lip balm, turned pale.

They stood there at a loss, neither advancing nor retreating.

"My lord, you said that the poisonous salt that I was in charge of killed people, do you have any evidence?"

Lan Lian bit her head and stepped forward to ask.

Snapped!
The head catcher slapped Lan Lian hard:

"What kind of thing are you, how dare you question this headhunter?"

Lan Lian was beaten so hard that she almost fell down, but fortunately, Han Ruoshui helped her in time.

She covered her slapped face, resisting the pain and said:
"My master did not make poisonous salt, sir, you must have made a mistake!"

Snapped!
Another loud slap:

"Bold! The head catcher personally took his wife to inspect it, and confirmed that all thirteen members of the Shi family died after eating poisonous salt. Are you still going to defend yourself as the head of the family?"

"Impossible! All of us are eating the salt made by the head of the family, and no one is poisoned!"

Lan Lian shouted: "Master, how can you confirm that what the Shi family eats is the salt made by my family?"

"you!"

The head catcher said angrily:

"How dare you doubt the head arrester, come and call me!"

Snapped!
A whip down.

Lan Lian's blood flowed from the pump, and her skin immediately swelled up.

She gritted her teeth stubbornly, didn't make a sound, and didn't beg for mercy, but just looked at the head catcher firmly.

Seeing this, the head catcher couldn't help being furious.

In his mind, a pariah like Lan Lian who doesn't know how to praise should be taught a good lesson.

"Come on, drag her down to me, and punish her with a hundred lashes!"

"My lord, please slow down!"

The village chief hurried over after hearing the news, and seeing Lan Lian's miserable appearance, he couldn't help feeling sad.

"who are you?"

"If you go back to the official, the villain is the head of the Lin family village."

"Okay, it's just in time. Lin Xiao made poisonous salt and poisoned thirteen members of the Shi family. What about others? Hand him over!"

The head catcher shouted sharply.

"The salt made by Xiao Linzi is poisonous? This, this, this is impossible!"

The village chief exclaimed.

"Hmph! Whether it's poisonous or not is up to you! Hand him over!"

The head catcher yelled, he doesn't want to talk too much nonsense with the village chief, he just wants to hurry up and bring Lin Xiao back to the government office to deal with business.

He still has to go to Wanhualou to find Xiaocui's warmth!
"This one……"

The village chief looked at the dying Lan Lian with a bruised nose and swollen face from the beating in embarrassment.

"Where did your boss go? Hurry up and let him out!"

"The head of the house went to the brother's workshop early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."

Lan Lian kept her mouth shut, and Han Ruoshui who was standing aside didn't want to get involved in this muddy water, so she hurriedly said.

"Little sister!"

Lan Lian glared at Han Ruoshui bitterly.

"I didn't say anything wrong!"

Han Ruoshui stared back at Lan Lian unwillingly, and continued:
"Usually, the head of the house should have come back, but now, how long has it been, and the person hasn't come back yet, I guess it's because Dong Chuang happened to run away! Do you still want to hide this from the official for such a person?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Lan Lian glared at Han Ruoshui.

She really couldn't figure out why Han Ruoshui, who was a smart girl in daily life, became confused at this moment!

If Lin Xiao was really taken away, what would happen to her as a concubine?

The headhunter got a satisfactory answer, and he glanced at the pretty Han Ruoshui approvingly, and then said to Lan Lian in disgust:

"Learn from others, what does it mean to be a man who knows current affairs!"

After all, he took people away from Lin Xiao's house and went straight to the brother's workshop!
