Splendid pastoral, the doctor girl is a little sweet

Chapter 30 Conscience's Condemnation

The man kowtowed to Gu Yingying to make amends, "I'm sorry for you. Even if you kill me, you should."

Gu Yingying wanted to teach him a lesson, but she hadn't thought that if she found him, she would definitely let him die.He was able to take the initiative to confess his guilt, presumably because he was condemned by his conscience, and it wasn't too bad.

"You murdered me together with them. I will not forget this grudge. But now I know that you were persecuted by Yin's family to do things that hurt nature and reason. I am not an ignorant person, and I know that you have no other choice." I don’t want to pursue it any longer.”

The man was even more ashamed, his face turned red from holding back, his forehead was swollen, and he said he deserved to die.

The magistrate said that that man, like Butcher Yin, had harmed her, so he should be punished.

The man handed over the silver taels to her at that time and admitted his mistake.

Regarding the fight between the people in the two villages, the magistrate not only punished Butcher Yin and the others, but also punished the members of the Gu family.It is said that they took people to make trouble, injured people, and had a bad influence.It should be punished.

Gu Yingying did the math, the money fined by Gu's family was less than half of the medical expenses paid to her by the people of Yin's family.

In my heart, I think it's fair for the magistrate to do things.

Yin Yuejiao's mother was imprisoned the same day for imprisoning the man's mother, and Yin Yuejiao's father was also punished.Presumably, in the recent days, he should be able to settle down a bit, right?
Gu Yingying was not worried about Jia Shi and the others coming to make trouble, and she was not afraid of Yin Yuejiao and Fu Xin who were still in Fucheng.She was only worried about the man that Xin Lan's sister had a crush on, fearing that he would not be able to eat the pastries with medicine and would have a relapse.

Even if Sister Xinlan only indirectly mentioned to her that she can't go out these days, what should I do?

But she herself guessed that the reason why Sister Xinlan asked that question was related to the man who had eaten the cakes she made, his condition had improved, and he was able to sell paintings near the monastery.

To this day, we still don't know the man's name.All she knew was that the man was Aunt Xiu's son.

Thinking about it in his heart, he should make some pastries after his family harvested the rice and send them to Sister Xinlan.To help Sister Xinlan, you have to help the person that Sister Xinlan has a crush on get rid of the illness.

When that person recovers, he will definitely treat Sister Xinlan better.

Seeing that her friend is having a good time, she is also happy.

The next day.

As soon as it was dawn, Gu Yingying and Mrs. Zhu got busy in the kitchen.The sister-in-law and the sister-in-law cooperated well. One washed and cut vegetables, and the other cooked them.

The burning of the fire was also done by Zhu Shi by the way.

After a while, Gu Yingying cooked several dishes, and only waited for the pig's trotter soup in the pot to be cooked, and then made a few cold dishes, and the meal was ready.

The family harvests rice, and the villagers will come to help.In addition to three meals a day today, some tea must be prepared for the villagers to take to drink when they go to work in the fields.

Considering that Niu was pregnant, Gu Yingying still invited Xingya'er's father for her, and asked them to sign the testimony for her.So I boiled some brown sugar water for this benefactor, and put it in a ceramic teapot for tea.

a while.

Both Xu Xinlan and her mother and daughter came to the kitchen.

Taking advantage of her mother helping Mrs. Zhu add firewood, Xu Xinlan came to the stove and said to Gu Yingying who was serving fish soup: "I went back last night and saw Xingya."

"If you see her this morning, bring her over and have dinner here." Gu Yingying put down her spoon and said to Xu Xinlan with a smile.

"Oh, I can't bring it." Xu Xinlan pouted lightly, "It's not like you don't know that she is timid and won't go with people other than her family?"

Of course Gu Yingying knew this.Tell the truth: "But today is different, her second uncle and the others will come over. There are people by her side, what are you afraid of?"

"But her grandpa won't come." Xu Xinlan shook her head, whispered into Gu Yingying's ear, and said softly:
"Yesterday, Xingya told me that she and her father helped you, and her aunt already knew about it. It's just strange this time, her aunt not only didn't blame them, but also didn't blame her. My second aunt helped spread the word, but she acted like nothing happened and didn't mention anything."

Gu Yingying snickered.

Yesterday, when she went to the yamen, she also took the contract she had signed with the carpenter.It was entrusted to a government servant whom Xu Shibo knew and handed over to the magistrate.

After a while, the yamen came out and said to her and Xu Shibo in private: "Master Zhifu has read the contract and knows that it was the carpenter who broke the contract first and provided convenience to Mrs. Jia. I want me to ask you , I brought the contract here this time because I want the carpenter to pay some silver taels to Miss Gu?"

Gu Yingying smiled slightly, "It doesn't need to be so troublesome."

Although the contract clearly stated that the blueprint of the windmill she drew, without her permission, was not allowed to be lent to others for viewing, let alone provided for others to use.

If the master carpenter breaks the agreement, he will pay her 100 taels of silver according to the rules they set.

But she knew that the master carpenter was very stingy, and it was impossible for him to be willing to pay her money.

And she brought the contract here this time not only to deal with the master carpenter, but also to show some color to Jia Shi who built his happiness on the pain of others.

Of course, she was not reconciled to being so cheap, and let that shrew sell the windmills she made with her blueprints to make money.

Gu Yingying pretended to be very understanding and suggested:

"My lord, the lady of the people also knows that the magistrate has just returned from the imperial city recently, and he has a lot of official business to deal with. The lady of the people can't bother the lord of the prefect because of such a trivial matter. I just have a good suggestion, and I want to tell the magistrate My lord, listen."

Upon hearing this, Yachai quietly flashed a trace of joy in his eyes, and said:
"Let's talk and listen."

"According to the views of the women, it is better to ask Jia to donate all the windmills he has made for the use of villagers in several nearby villages. In this way, not only can Jia's reputation be spread far and wide, but also for the benefit of the villagers. "

After saying this, Gu Yingying suddenly felt much more at ease.

Yachai raised his eyebrows lightly and said: "It's wonderful, it fits our lord's intentions. My lord has also told me that the Luo family is not the Gu family, and they don't have that much land. They have also made so many windmills, so they are not afraid of being left idle? It’s better to take it out for the big guys to use, so as to make the best use of it. It can also leave a good name.”

Thinking of this, Gu Yingying realized that after returning home, Xu Shibo hadn't told sister Xinlan and the others about anything related to Jia's raising money for Xingya'er's father to make a windmill.

When the food was brought to the table, Gu Yingying had looked through the main room and the cubicle, and she really didn't find anyone from the Luo family.

Including Niu Shi, who promised to come and said that he would come to help her cook earlier yesterday, did not show up.

Gu Yingying's heart sank slightly, feeling that the situation was not good.

The main reason is that Mr. Niu has always kept his promises. Even if he is a little cowardly, he will not dare to come to help harvest the rice because he is afraid of Mrs. Jia.

When the folks had breakfast and went to work in the fields, Gu Yingying took the opportunity of bringing tea to the folks and asked Xu Xinlan to ask some of Jia's neighbors.

Only then did I learn that it was this morning that the magistrate sent someone to Luo's house and gave Jia's father-in-law a box of tea.It is said that it was brought back from the imperial city, and it has the effect of prolonging life.The magistrate himself was reluctant to drink it, so he asked someone to bring it to Jia's father-in-law.

Jia's father-in-law is not someone who has never seen the world, so he received the tea and saluted to thank him.Faced with the proposal of those yamen servants, let them keep a windmill, and donate the rest to the folks in the neighboring villages, so they can only reluctantly agree.
