Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

Chapter 236 Do you have anything to do with this matter?

"Wan Lizheng, what's going on?" Liu Qingcao raised his eyes and asked tentatively.

Wan Huaimin did not answer, his eyes still looked straight at Liu Qingcao.

Jiang Dayin watched this scene, silent, his heart beating faster, for fear that Wan Li was about to say something big.

Xia Gengcai didn't know what Wan Li was about to say, but seeing Wan Li being so serious, he knew that this was not simple. He looked at Liu Qingcao and saw that there was no trace of urgency on her face, but he felt that it was not a big deal.

Time passed by the stick of incense, as if an hour had passed. Wan Huaimin looked away and fell on the tea cup.

"Qingcao, Xin County Magistrate Gou died suddenly the day before yesterday. The cause of death cannot be found. I heard from the people of Xin County that Magistrate Gou was tortured every day. Many doctors were consulted, but no one could find out what the illness was.

The yamen servant at the mansion said that in the last few days, Magistrate Gou knelt on the ground in the courtyard, kowtowed constantly, and kept saying "let him go, let him go." "Wan Huaimin's voice was long and calm, and no emotion could be heard.

Liu Qingcao counted the days and found that it had been about half a month since they administered the medicine, and the effect of the medicine had not yet been fully exerted...

His death was not due to his own poison, it was someone else who killed him.

Liu Qingcao really felt that it was a pity that Gou Xingwan had done many evil things, so it would be an advantage for him to die like this.

"Wan Lizheng, does this matter have anything to do with us?" Liu Qingcao looked at Wan Huaimin with innocent big eyes flashing in confusion.

Wan Huaimin glanced at Liu Qingcao, frowned, looked at the two people behind him, and said in a dull tone, "You two, go down."

"Yes, Wan Lizheng."

"Yes, Wan Lizheng." The two of them walked away and stopped by the gate of the private school.

Wan Huaimin glanced towards them to make sure they were out of earshot, then sighed and whispered:
"Qingcao, you shouldn't get involved in this matter. After all, this is a court official. If he is found out, it will be a serious crime to behead his head."

!!!

"Why does Wan Lizheng think this matter has something to do with me? I'm just a little girl, how can I have such abilities? Wan Lizheng is overestimating himself." Liu Qingcao suppressed the doubts in his heart and planned to deny it.

Moreover, Gou Xingwan's death really had nothing to do with her, but when Wan Huaimin said this, there must be some rumors outside that reached his ears.

"Qingcao, do you have anything to do with this?" Wan Huaimin spoke again uncertainly.

"Wan Lizheng, it doesn't matter."

Liu Qingcao looked at Wan Huaimin and nodded heavily, his tone was calm and his expression was calm.

"That's good. If you're so smart, you won't do such a dangerous thing." Wan Huaimin let go of his uneasiness after hearing her affirmation.

Liu Qingcao hadn't been out for a long time. She didn't know what was going on outside, so she still had to ask Wan Huaimin about this matter.

"Wan Lizheng, what happened? Why did you ask like this just now?" Liu Qingcao asked tentatively.

"Recently, there are rumors in Xinxian County that a little girl aged thirteen or fourteen and a man in his thirties beat up Magistrate Gou at the gate of the county seat. It is said that the person was seriously injured."

Wan Huaimin told what he knew. When he talked about the little girl who was thirteen or fourteen years old, he subconsciously glanced at Liu Qingcao.

Liu Qingcao twitched her mouth after hearing this. She thought it was Wei Li and Ji Yuezhi who were exposed, but she didn't expect that it was the people of Xin County who were spreading rumors.

"I have heard about this, but it is not like this. I happened to be in Xin County those two days, and I saw Magistrate Gou riding a carriage out of the Yamen. He was in high spirits and did not look like he was injured. "Liu Qingcao said half should be kept and half should be mixed with true and false. "Oh, you're here too?" Wan Huaimin's heart suddenly became relieved again.

"I went to Xin County to collect the accounts that day. Of course I was there." Liu Qingcao curled her lips lightly and looked calm.

"It's really time to collect the debt." Wan Huaimin frowned and muttered softly, as if he didn't believe Liu Qingcao's words, and seemed to be making excuses for Liu Qingcao.

Liu Qingcao was speechless, but admired Wan Huaimin's vision.

He guessed most of this right, but not entirely.

"Wan Lizheng, Magistrate Gou died suddenly. He must have offended someone who is not afraid of trouble. Otherwise, who is a magistrate so bold as to dare to assassinate court officials?"

"You are right, Qingcao. It's just that after Magistrate Gou died, the position of magistrate became vacant. I don't know who the court will send to take over the new county this time."

Wan Huaimin felt his teeth itch with hatred when he thought of what Gou Xingwan had done. When he heard the news of Gou Xingwan's sudden death, he actually felt that God had opened his eyes.

But when he heard rumors from the people later, he immediately thought of Liu Qingcao, so he came to Shihe Village early in the morning to confirm.

"Isn't there still Brother Gan? Maybe the court will re-appoint him!"

That's what Liu Qingcao said, but if you think about it carefully, it's actually unlikely. Unless the person who interceded for him last time comes forward again, the emperor can't remember him at all.

"Maybe." Wan Huaimin's eyes lit up for a moment, and then quickly dimmed again.

Liu Qingcao smiled slightly and said nothing more. After all, Wan Huaimin understood officialdom better than she did.

"Wan Lizheng, this matter is beyond our control. Thinking about it now will only increase your worries." Liu Qingcao saw that he was unhappy and advised him.

"Oh, I just hope it will be good. It has been less than two months since Magistrate Gou came here. The entire new county has been badly damaged. The prefect above is busy with affairs, and there are always omissions. We local officials have no power, so there is nothing we can do. No way." Wan Huaimin sighed to himself, looking lonely.

Liu Qingcao agreed very much. Although Wan Huaimin was an official, he could go to the prefect to file a complaint against him. However, those who were oppressed had already been warned by Gou Xingwan, so how could they dare to come forward.

What's more, Gou Xingwan has a backer, and the prefect may not be able to do anything to him...

"Wan Lizheng, please eat some of the cakes and bread I made. You arrived so early, I think you didn't have breakfast." Liu Qingcao didn't want to see Wan Huaimin blame himself, so he took the initiative to end the topic.

Although Wan Huaimin felt guilty, he quickly put away his emotions.

"Okay, I have to try it. I haven't eaten this for a long time." Wan Huaimin's gray eyes brightened a little, and he smiled and picked up a piece of cake and bread and ate it.

……

After Wan Huaimin left, Liu Qingcao immediately returned to the medicine warehouse to continue making medicine, including various medicinal powders, pills, and potions.

For half a month, Liu Qingcao soaked himself in the medicine library, and even called students with good pharmacology qualifications to make medicine in the medicine library.

After one cart of medicinal materials was used up, another cart was bought. Qianfeng Medical Center didn't have any, so they went to the county town to buy them. But the county town didn't sell them anymore, so they went to the prefectural city. When they really didn't have any, they organized students to dig in the mountains.

Those students were busy these days and became thinner and darker, but each of them got a health pill made from willow grass, which made them extremely happy.
