There is room for the evil peasant woman

Chapter 49 Buying a Shop

After Shen Yan came out, she went to town to find Fang Ya to check out the shops.

"What do you want from this shop, young lady?" The thin, shrewd-looking man looked at Shen Yan.

"Well, the location needs to be on East Street. It's best if the shop is bigger. There are no requirements for the interior layout."

When the thin man heard this, he rolled his eyes carefully for a moment, thought of a place, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "My dear, this is just a coincidence. A few days ago, a seller came over and told us that he wanted to sell a shop. Come on, I’ll take you to see it right now!”

Shen Yan nodded and followed the man to that place.

But when she saw the appearance of the shop, Shen Yan frowned slightly. It wasn't that this place was bad, but on the contrary, this place was great!

It's in an excellent location, has a lot of traffic, and the shop is well decorated. Why was it sold like this? Or sell it at a low price?
  Thinking like this, Shen Yan asked the man who was introducing this place to her: "Did something happen here?"

Upon hearing this, the man who had just introduced him spat at the words, looked around, and when he saw that no one was looking towards him, he whispered: "To be honest, little lady, this place is indeed very good. However, I heard that the seller inside had offended someone and seemed to be running away recently. There were many people who wanted to buy this place, but later they didn’t buy it for some unknown reason..."

After hearing this explanation, Shen Yan's eyes flashed, "Can I go in and take a look?"

Shen Yan was really satisfied with the place.

"Of course, Miss, please—" Zuo Yi led the way, his footsteps obviously much lighter. Unexpectedly, this person still wanted to buy. If the order was completed, he could get a lot of money from it.

As soon as Shen Yan arrived inside, he was slightly shocked by the things inside. The room looked a bit dark because the windows were covered with black cloth.

There are all kinds of poisonous scorpions hanging on the wall, all kinds of snakes and toads that are extremely poisonous at first sight...all the five poisonous things!

There were also a lot of unusual tools on the table. Shen Yan couldn't recognize what they were, but this place didn't look like he was running a bright business.

As soon as he entered this place, Shen Yan felt that this place was a bit eerie, and looked at the man whose legs and feet were trembling a little: "What did this place sell before?"

The man rubbed his hands, his eyes unclear, and looked at Shen Yan with a forced smile: "A few months ago, a very strange person suddenly bought this land, but no one around has seen it. With her appearance, everyone was a little curious as to what she was selling for selling such a good place, but as a result, you see, she was selling these weird things."

As he spoke, he pointed to the surrounding scene, "Most of the people who came in were scared away. I don't know what happened during this period. It seems to be related to the county government. I don't know the specific situation. ! But, little lady, this shop is definitely a good place, but some of the buyers in front of me didn’t buy it because they felt unlucky about the things sold here before. Others were already sure about it, but later because of some It’s over, but, little lady, you have to believe me, there’s no chance you’ll miss this place a second time! The location is good, the shop is big, and there aren’t many shops that suit your liking!”

After some persuasion from the man, Shen Yan noticed that the man's behavior was abnormal, but she did not expose him. Her eyes darkened and she asked, "Is it related to the county government? When did it happen?"

Shen Yan suddenly remembered that when she treated the county eldest son before, he seemed to have been poisoned...

Shen Yan felt that the current scene must have something to do with what happened that day.

"Well...it happened about ten days ago, but this person only recently came to us to sell our house. That person was indeed strange. None of us could see her face clearly, but what we can confirm is that she is A woman."

"What about these things? Doesn't she want any of them?" Shen Yan pointed at the things behind him.

When the man saw it, he smiled and said, "Well, when she came here, she said that these were all left to the next homeowner, saying that this was a meeting gift from her."

Hearing this, Shen Yan's eyes flashed and she responded with a smile: "Okay, I want this shop!"

Upon hearing this, the man's eyes immediately lit up, "Okay! Let's go through the formalities now, so as not to delay the little lady's time later."

Shen Yan responded and followed the people out. The moment he stepped out of the house, Shen Yan looked back again and saw the poisons hanging on them. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. These are also very good Chinese medicine...

-

After handing over the house deed, Shen Yan arrived at the door of the county government office.

"Hello, is Mrs. Zheng at home? I want to find her." The gatekeeper glanced at Shen Yan and sneered: "Who do you think your wife is? Can you meet someone like you casually?" At this time Shen Yan was still dressed as an ordinary peasant woman, a dark green dress, the material of the clothes was good but not bad, and she wore her hair in a woman's bun.

Shen Yan was not surprised to receive such an answer, and said to the young man in a calm tone: "Go and tell her that the female doctor who treated you half a month ago is coming to review the eldest son today!"

Upon hearing this, the young man looked at Shen Yan carefully and saw that Shen Yan didn't look like he could lie. After thinking about it for a while, he slowly said: "Okay, you wait here. The slave will go in and report."

Shen Yan nodded in agreement.

Within a moment, the man hurriedly walked out, this time with an obviously more respectful expression, "Please come in, please come in!"

Even his actions are much more flattering than before!
  When they came to an elegant and quiet courtyard, they saw Mrs. Zheng and two pretty women drinking tea and chatting. When she saw Shen Yan coming, Mrs. Zheng stood up and came to greet her: "Doctor Shen is here, is there anything urgent? Something happened? Or is there something wrong with my Yan'er?"

"That's not true!" Shen Yan reassured Mrs. Zheng and told her not to worry, then looked at everyone in the room, "Can we move over and have a chat?"

Ever since Shen Yan rescued her child, Mrs. Zheng had a very good impression of her.

"Of course, Miss Zhang, Miss Ye, this lady and I have something to do. You two should have a good chat now. I'll come back later!"

The county magistrate's wife said so, and the two of them naturally agreed.

When he arrived at the side room, he closed the door and said, "Madam, I wonder... have you found the person who poisoned the young master?"

"What are you talking about..." Mrs. Zheng's eyes trembled slightly, "I found her, but the person was not easy to catch, so she escaped again!"

Hearing this, Shen Yan was almost sure that the owner of the shop and the person who caused the poison were the same person, but wasn't that place still selling it? Where will the transferred money go?
  "That shop on East Street was originally called 'Yan Xin Pavilion'. Does that belong to that person?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng looked at Shen Yan and frowned slightly: "How did you know?"

Shen Yan didn't hide anything, and directly stated his purpose of coming: "I've taken a liking to that shop on East Street, and the deed has been handed over, but there are a lot of strange things there... Did you really not find that person?"

Shen Yan always felt that something would happen to this person in the future.

"I can still lie to you, but now that you have taken over this shop, you have to be careful. That person is not a good person! It is because of her that our Yan'er's life is in danger..."

Mrs. Zheng slowly told Shen Yan how Zheng Shuyan fell into the woman's trick.

The reason can be said to be a bit dramatic.

Mrs. Zheng said that the woman might be from South Vietnam and knew the art of witchcraft. One day when she first came to Qingshui Town, she fell in love with Zheng Shuyan because of Zheng Shuyan's heroic act of saving a beautiful woman. However, she had been practicing witchcraft since she was a child. Even his body is a container for poisonous insects. His face is covered with various marks, which makes him look extremely scary, so he wears a black cloak all year round.

After knowing her feelings, she went directly to confess her feelings to Zheng Shuyan, and she also showed the marks on her face very straightforwardly. In her mind, if you like someone, you have to accept everything about others, but her The idea obviously didn’t work in that situation!
  The result can be imagined. Zheng Shuyan had never seen such a scene before, and he was not very courageous. He was frightened and fainted!
  When the woman saw it, she felt dissatisfied and directly planted a poisonous insect on the person. Her original intention was to ask Zheng Shuyan to slowly accept herself in the illusion she weaved. As a result, the man was unwilling to do anything in the illusion and provoked the woman. I'm so annoyed that I just want to activate the psychedelic Gu in advance to kill people!
  But before it even started, Shen Yan got rid of the poison.

The woman also learned that she couldn't do her thing. Zheng Shuyan told his father everything as soon as he woke up. Before anyone from the county could come to arrest her, the woman ran away and has not been seen yet.

"However, she sold the shop to me. You know, why didn't those people who wanted to buy the land buy it later?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng's eyes were complicated, and she was vaguely afraid: "That woman is so evil. Buyers who go there will suddenly faint within a short while. This has happened several times. After all, That place is really good, and many people want to buy that shop, but after this happens a few times, no one will go to see it. Doctor Shen, you..."

"I'm fine!" Shen Yan knew what she wanted to ask, "From the beginning to now, there is no abnormality in my body."

"Is everything okay?" After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng was slightly shocked. She thought of something and looked at Shen Yan with unclear meaning: "Is it possible that she reserved this shop just for you?"
