Chapter 25
Cai Shumin had actually been here for a while, but he didn't come out when he saw his mother and the girl named Mu Mian talking.It was so convenient for him to understand the whole story.

Cai Shumin was furious, for such a clear and simple case, but those two yamen servants brought him back, obviously abusing their power and disregarding human life.

Reminiscent of the recent troubles, Cai Shumin clenched her fists.

But he didn't dare to bring his anger to the surface, so he could only try his best to pretend to be calm, if his mother saw the clue, he would inevitably faint again.

Chen originally thought that this was an unjust, false and wrongly decided case caused by the dereliction of duty of a few servants, but she did not expect her son to have such a serious expression.

She asked with concern: "Zhiyan, is there something strange about this?"

Cai Shumin patted Chen's shoulder reassuringly, and said with a smile: "Mother, leave this matter to me, and I will take care of it. Mother should take care of her health and don't worry about these things."

Chen was uneasy: "Don't you lie to me? Knowing son is like mother, how can I not understand you?"

Cai Shumin said without changing his face: "You are worrying too much, Qiaoer, help the old lady to rest, I will talk to Miss Kapok."

Seeing her son like this, Mrs. Chen couldn't figure it out, so she had to leave.Before leaving, he comforted Kapok: "Mian girl, don't be afraid. My son will help you."

How clever Kapok is, she has already seen the reaction of County Magistrate Cai.

I'm afraid that even County magistrate Cai can't do anything about it.

But Mu Mian still nodded and said: "Old lady, I am not afraid of Mrs. Cai helping me. Don't worry, go and rest. You have to recuperate from this illness. Don't overthink it."

Mrs. Chen turned her head three times and walked away.

Seeing her mother leave, Cai Shumin waved back the other members of the cell, and said, "Miss Mu, you saved my mother, so I shouldn't have shied away from this matter."

"Your Excellency, you don't need to be embarrassed, I understand." With a faint smile on the corner of Mu Mian's mouth, Cai Shumin was interrupted, "Your Excellency must have many constraints when he first took office. It's the same as being a guest. When entering someone else's territory for the first time, you will always be timid and unable to move freely. If the adults mess up because of the Minnv's affairs, the Minnv will be guilty. Please calm down and don't be impatient. Xu Tuzhi will always turn against the guest one day .”

What an anti-client!This girl is so transparent.

Cai Shumin's eyes showed admiration. He originally came to Shucheng County with aspirations, and he thought that he could show his talents and plans, but the fact is that he was intercepted by Liu Xiancheng's party as soon as he arrived in Shucheng County. After entering the county seat, not only was he made things difficult and squeezed out everywhere, but now he couldn't even protect a girl.

How does this make him not irritable?

But what Cai Shumin didn't expect was that the plainly dressed, immature and weak peasant girl in front of her could say such a sentence. Knowing the predicament he was in, this girl's insight was really amazing.

He looked at the little girl earnestly. In the dimly lit cell, the girl stood tall and lively, with a pair of bright and clear eyes shining with bits and pieces, making it impossible to move away.

She was obviously in a dangerous situation, but she still wanted to appease his emotions. She was so calm and calm, not chaotic in the face of danger, her will should be indestructible, right?This person lives up to its name, although it is not as dazzling as peonies and narcissus, it is as strong and stubborn as kapok.

"Slowly figure it out, turn the customer into the main? How much weight does the word kapok girl have? I don't want to hide it from the girl. I know that I have come to Shucheng for more than three months, and I really feel powerless." As soon as the words came out, Cai Shumin regretted a little. He and a little girl What are these for?
But Kapok pursed her lips and began to think.

Cai Shumin actually had some hope when he saw it, he laughed, he must be crazy to pin his hope on a peasant girl who is not yet fifteen.

But in the next second, he heard Mu Mian seriously: "I heard from Shopkeeper Qian that Liu Xiancheng's younger sister is married to the magistrate, right?"

Hearing her question, Cai Shumin said without thinking, "I'm not married as a wife, I'm just a concubine." After speaking, Cai Shumin wanted to slap him again, and he was talking nonsense again.

He coughed and said, "Why did Miss Mu ask this?"

Kapok raised the corners of her lips, showing a beautiful arc: "Lord Cai, I dare to say something, I'm afraid you won't make a fuss about the affairs of the back house, but in fact, if you grasp the affairs of the back house well, you can cut your life's path." Liu Xiancheng only dared to act recklessly in Shucheng County because his sister was favored by the magistrate, so what if the close relationship between Liu Xiancheng and the magistrate was broken?"

Broken relationship?Cai Shumin only felt his eyes light up, and he woke up the dreamer with a word. Why had he been thinking about fighting with Liu Xiancheng before, but he didn't expect to start from the magistrate's level?
"However." Cai Shumin smiled shyly, revealing the embarrassment of a teenager, "I don't understand the matter of the back house."

It seems that Mr. Cai has not married a wife yet.

Mu Mian pursed her lips and smiled, and she said: "My lord, I think the money shopkeeper has a very close relationship with Liu Xiancheng, and my lord can also start to investigate from him. As for the concubine"

Kapok paused, and closed his eyes to think.

Cai Shumin waited for her without saying a word.

Kapok thought for a while and said, "Your Excellency, you can try to buy some of the handyman servants around the backyard. These people seem to be unworthy of the master's reuse, but not being reused also means that they are not loyal enough. Sir, don't underestimate them. They want to survive in the mansion. He is very well-informed about the news in the mansion."

Cai Shumin nodded, agreeing with her thoughts very much: "Since that's the case, I will immediately investigate. Miss Mu will be wronged and stay here for a few more days, and I will send someone to protect the girl."

Seeing him walking out in a hurry, Mu Mian said, "My lord, I have an uninvited request. My parents are at home, and I'm not at ease. Could you please send someone to my house to have a look?"

Cai Shumin agreed without even thinking about it: "Don't worry, the girl has saved my mother's life, and it should be done." After finishing speaking, she rushed away excitedly.

After Cai Shumin left, Kapok paced around the cell, thinking carefully.

After discussing with Mr. Cai, she felt a little more at ease. As long as she can draw Liu Xiancheng's hole card, she can ensure that she is safe and sound.

However, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, Yan Yiming will definitely spread the prescription, and then Liu Xiancheng and the others will be angered, and her life may be in danger in prison.

what to do?She can't be killed by someone, so she can hide in the space and see no one.

She still has to think of some way to protect herself.

It has to be said that Kapok's deduction was quite correct. On the second day and night, an unexpected visitor came to the cell.
