Chapter 630 A life for a life
When the third patient stood up and went to the counter to pay and get the medicine, Jiang Fubao suddenly felt several eyes scanning her.
Turning her head, she found the man sitting and waiting on her left, looking at her and then at the words behind her.
His eyes were dark and unclear, seeming to be filled with fear and admiration.
Within two days, the news that the emperor personally wrote the inscription to grant the Ren'ai Medical Clinic to Jiang Fubao spread throughout Lianshan Town.
Even spreading outward.
Jiang Fubao is also becoming increasingly busy.
Half a month later, Meng Bujiu, who had finished his busy work, took an afternoon off and returned from Chang'an Town. Without even entering his home, he went to Ren'ai Medical Clinic to look for Jiang Fubao.
When she came in, Jiang Fubao was taking a patient's pulse. Her apprentices were following behind her like small potatoes, each holding a booklet and taking notes with a thin brush.
He looked very serious.
Meng Bujiu didn't disturb her.
Jiang Fubao also saw Meng Bujiu. They both raised their chins and blinked. Meng Bujiu then went to the backyard to wait for Jiang Fubao in a familiar manner.
During this time, he opened the medical book that Jiang Fubao had placed on the stone table.
The cook who was selecting vegetables took advantage of her free time to pour him a cup of herbal tea.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and not everyone can afford ice.
Therefore, the herbal tea sold at Ren Ai Medical Clinic is very good, second only to the fruit drinks and mung bean soup sold in Jiang’s snack shop.
"Brother Bujiu, what are you looking at?" Jiang Fubao, who had just finished giving acupuncture to a patient, was finally able to take a break.
She walked to the backyard and saw Meng Bujiu reading a book.
"I was reading your medical book. The treatment methods in it are a bit strange. Fighting poison with poison? If the poison is not used properly, won't the patient die?"
Meng Bujiu put down the book in his hand, then drank the herbal tea in the cup, looking straight at Jiang Fubao with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Oh, this is the book that Mr. Shen gave me before. I never finished reading it. I happened to have nothing to do, so I brought it from home to kill time."
Jiang Fubao replied casually.
"Him? I haven't heard from him for a long time." Meng Bujiu nodded slightly, his eyes drifting away.
"Didn't he say he was going to Jiangnan? He will probably come back to visit after he passes the imperial examination. Brother Bujiu, do you like this herbal tea? I'll give you the recipe. Ask the maid to make it for you. Hang it in the well every day, or chill it with ice. You can drink it when it's completely cool. You work hard every day and often go out on missions. You can't get a heat stroke."
Jiang Fubao discovered that Meng Bujiu had become a little tanned in just half a month.
It's not ugly at all, it looks more manly.
Originally, in the words of her second uncle, he was a pretty boy.
After becoming the county magistrate, Brother Bujiu's eyes became sharper. If an outsider was here and was glanced at by him, his calves would probably tremble.
However, she is not afraid.
You should know that brother Bujiu loves her the most.
"Okay." Meng Bujiu smiled gently.
The corners of his eyes narrowed and curved.
"By the way, why did Brother Bujiu suddenly come to see me? Isn't the county government busy recently?" Jiang Fubao sat opposite him and asked in a voice as sweet as an oriole.
"It's time to take a half-day break. The case has just happened to have been judged, so I wanted to tell you something. Don't you love to hear gossip?" Meng Bujiu turned sideways and smiled dotingly.
If we were to ask who knows Jiang Fubao best, besides her family, the next best person would be Meng Bujiu.
"Hehe, Brother Bujiu really understands me. Then just tell me. After you finish, I will invite you to have dinner at Zuiyuexuan after the clinic closes. I heard that his family recently invited a chef from the Imperial City. His ancestors were imperial chefs and he has served many new dishes.
Since Brother Bujiu is taking a half-day break, let's go back to Chang'an Town after dinner. Grandpa Gan misses you too. No, we have to call Grandpa Gan up with us. Forget it, I'll send Shitou to Zuiyuexuan later and ask the waiters to deliver the dishes to Dong's house. Grandpa Gan hasn't been active in the past two years, so he probably doesn't want to go. Let's go to Dong's house and eat with him."
Jiang Fubao rested her elbows on the stone table, her left palm supporting her cheek. She tilted her head slightly and discussed with Meng Bujiu.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Meng Bujiu nodded in agreement.
Then he began to talk about the case slowly.
"According to Fubao's suggestion, I found a six-year-old girl, asked her to change into white clothes and wear a wig. The girl was timid and kept crying. It was creepy to hear her crying in the village late at night, and it was even more realistic when she cried. The mother and son were so scared that they wet their pants and knelt on the ground to explain everything they had done. As for the villagers who spoke up for them.
They were both scared and told the truth. The two were sentenced to immediate execution. Of course, I executed him first and then told my father. As for the woman, I arranged for her to divorce and helped sell her in-laws' house and land. I gave her all the money and sent her to the next county. There was a village there where people who had fled famine in the past few years lived. The villagers were not familiar with each other and would not bully her. After this incident, she could no longer stay in Chang'an Town..."
Meng Bujiu spoke in detail and explained the case clearly, and even raised his eyebrows at Jiang Fubao mischievously.
It’s good to have a father who is a prefect.
The verdicts did not need to be sent to the prefect for review.
"Beheaded? Where was it beheaded?"
Jiang Fubao forgot to blink her eyes when she heard this. She felt a little sore for a moment, so she rubbed her eyelids and felt better.
"Caishikou, Chang'an Town. I have ordered the villagers to watch the execution together. Anyone who dares to kill people again will be beheaded!"
Since Emperor Mingsheng came to power, many laws have been added.
But the emperor is far away.
The villagers' deep-rooted ideas simply cannot be changed. They still believe that, just like before, a girl's life is not a life and can be killed if they want.
With the intimidation of these two heads, I'm sure they won't dare to do that anymore.
Jiang Fubao clapped his hands in applause, and instantly felt no longer tired.
The whole person is in high spirits.
"Good! You did a great job. This kind of person is so cruel and cruel. He should pay with his life for his life. He looks down on women, but he was born under a woman's crotch. He is so cheap!"
Jiang Fubao felt very relieved after scolding.
It stands to reason that scholars are pedantic, but Meng Bujiu looked at her with admiration.
He didn't show the slightest disdain, nor did he feel that her words and actions were overstepping the mark.
"Master, please come here quickly. Someone is dying and bleeding a lot." Just when the two were chatting, Chen Hongxia pulled open the curtain with an anxious look on her face, walked to the backyard and shouted.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Fubao immediately stood up and asked.
"A man rolled down the mountain with a huge cut on his stomach. He was bleeding profusely and fainted. In fact, the senior brother said that he could not be saved. However, he was the only son in the family and had three hungry children. His family members cried so hard that they knelt in the clinic and begged the master to save him..."
