Chapter 25

Young Master Su gave her another 20 taels of silver, and after Ye Qiongdan took the money, he asked with a smile, "Do you want to memorize another copy?"

"It's so thick, can you memorize it?" Young Master Su handed her a dictionary, "This is a dictionary!"

When everyone heard the word "dictionary", their faces changed, thinking that Ye Qiongdan would not be able to recite it no matter what.They couldn't help looking at her with sympathy, and they wondered if A Liang's family would force her to pay if she couldn't recite the dictionary!

Before they knew it, everyone had a good impression of Ye Qiongdan. First of all, they felt that scholars know propriety, righteousness and shame, so they should not do such a thing. Secondly, it was because of the attitude of Ah Liang's family who refused to go to see the official, which seemed too suspicious. !

"No problem, but you need to pay more to memorize the dictionary!" Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly, ""Dalong Jiezi" contains more than 700 Chinese characters, and the book has a total of more than 3 characters. You have to pay me at least five times price?"

"Can you recite it?" Su Xiaogong asked suspiciously.

"Can you get the money?" Ye Qiongdan smiled calmly, like a plum blossom laughing at the spring breeze, very temperamental.

Young Master Su took out the money in the purse, counted it, and pursed his lips: "Money...the money is not enough, but my house is nearby, at worst, I will get it to you when I go home!"

"So, you want to hear me recite?"

"Think!" Su Xiaogong said loudly, and looked at the crowd, "Do you want to?"

"Think!" Everyone said in unison.

"Okay!" Ye Qiongdan opened the dictionary calmly, and began to read ten lines at a glance.

After two cups of tea, she returned the dictionary to Young Master Su.

"Don't you need to read it again?"

"Let's start." Ye Qiongdan said calmly.

Under the sunshine in early summer, the girl stood like a straight young white poplar. Her voice was beautiful, like gurgling spring water, or like jade beads falling into a plate. The bustling pier became quiet, and everyone subconsciously didn’t want to disturb her. .

In a restaurant not far away, Wu Jinghong, the son of the richest businessman in the North, stood by the window again, and focused his gaze on her.

Ashin asked the young master to stop staring at a country girl several times, but he was afraid of being taught a lesson, so he could only keep his mouth shut resentfully.

What's so great about having a photographic memory?

Some scholastic talents can still remember with a photographic memory even after reading a book!

She's just a poor girl, so what if she has a superb memory?Can she still become the mistress of a big family and manage the entire family's palace?
When only one-fifth of "Dalong Jiezi" was memorized, the workers had already finished their work and rushed over here one after another.

These contractors who were born in poor families admire educated people the most, even if the other party is a little girl.

Therefore, the surroundings are still very quiet, and no one speaks.

After Ye Qiongdan finished reciting "Dalong Jiezi", she stretched out her hand and said, "Give me the money!"

"It's really verbatim!" Young Master Su was shocked, he untied the purse nonchalantly, and put it in her hand, "It's still ten taels of silver, I'll go back and get the money later!"

"Do you still want to recite it?" Ye Qiongdan teased.

"I can't bear it... I can't bear it..." Young Master Su shook his head hastily, "If you keep memorizing it, you will lose all your wealth..."

Ye Qiongdan gave the purse to the eldest brother, and looked at A Liang's family: "Now believe that I have a photographic memory, right? As I said, this uncle didn't come to my place to buy food yesterday! He will definitely not because he ate my house The food is poisoned!"

"He's just been poisoned! If you don't believe me, go ask Dr. Xue from Jihetang!" the mean woman shouted.

The surrounding contractors understood what was going on here, and they couldn't help discussing it. Some people immediately went to the surrounding stalls to order other things to eat, even if these snacks were more expensive.

"Doctor Xue went to pick up someone from the passenger ship. I saw him just now! Why don't you invite Doctor Xue over here!" someone shouted.

The mean woman glanced at A Liang: "Quick! Invite Dr. Xue over immediately!"

Ah Liang went to do it immediately, and after a while, he brought two doctors, one old and one young, over.

The old doctor with a strong body and a good spirit is the chief doctor of Jihetang. He is over 70 years old this year, and his medical skills are unrivaled in Qinghe County.

Doctor Xue is 30 years old this year. He is a closed disciple of the old doctor. He is skilled in medicine and approachable, and he is well-known in Qinghe County.

When the old doctor saw the old man on the stretcher, out of the benevolence of the doctor, he immediately looked at him and asked him about it, and then shook his head repeatedly.

"Doctor Sun, my father has been poisoned, right?" the mean girl asked hastily.

"Yes, poisoned." The old doctor nodded seriously.

"Oleander poisoning." Ye Qiongdan added.

The old doctor looked at her in surprise, and the faces of A Liang's family became very ugly.

"It's indeed oleander poisoning. There's no cure for this kind of poison," the old doctor sighed, "Please be sorry."

"Now do you still believe that I poisoned the food?" Ye Qiongdan said frankly, "I have no grievances with you, why do you put oleander in the food?"

"Maybe you put it in by accident!" A Liang immediately said, "You don't know medical skills, how do you know that my father was poisoned by eating oleander? So, you must have put the oleander in there." of!"

"Who says I don't know medical skills?" Ye Qiongdan laughed, "What do I know that needs to be spread widely and known all over the world?"

The old doctor looked at her again and said nothing.He didn't think Ye Qiongdan knew medical skills, this little girl is not yet Jiji's age, right?Even if he worked as a helper in the medical hall, he was at best an apprentice grinding medicine.

"Anyway, you did this poison! Lose money!" Ah Liang's mother began to cry and roll on the ground, "If you don't lose money, don't think about leaving today!"

"Report to the official! I will go to the county government to sue you for blackmail! Your old man ate oleander by mistake, and he wants to extort a sum of money from me!" Ye Qiongdan said without fear.

"Why do you say that our family wants to blackmail your brothers and sisters' money?" The mean girl snorted coldly, "I'm poor, and I think everyone in the world is as poor as you!"

"I'm poor? I just earned 140 taels of silver from Mr. Su. Do you have that much money?" Ye Qiongdan raised his eyebrows, took out a few copper coins from his pocket, and used the Liuren divination method to calculate Finally, with a slight smile, "I know what's going on."

"What's going on?" The mean girl suddenly felt a little uneasy.

"Your father's name is Hou Aisan. He was originally from Bingzhou. When he was seven years old, he fled here due to a severe drought in Bingzhou..." Ye Qiongdan looked at the old man's face and eloquently told the whole life of the poisoned person. The more A Liang's family heard, the more shocked they became. Then, she combined the content of her divination and said, "Yesterday at Xushi, Hou Ailiang put oleander flower juice in the dish served to my father. The reason is that the girl he likes is about to get married, and my father wants to Raise money for the eldest son to discuss marriage, but don’t want to marry the youngest son to his sweetheart.”

"You nonsense!" A Liang shouted excitedly.

The members of the Hou family don't think so. Recently, the conflict between A Liang and his father has intensified. A few days ago, if no family members stopped him, A Liang would almost kill his father!

The old lady of the Hou family completely forgot the purpose of coming to the Ye brothers and sisters. She knew very well that the old man was at home yesterday and never came to buy Lao Shizi's food. Their family came here today to blackmail the brothers and sisters!

When Ye Qiongdan talked about the old man's life at first, she was very surprised. After hearing that, she even admired the little girl.Her family lived in Houjiawan, which was not too close to Qili Town. She was sure that this little girl would not know about their family's affairs!
This shows that this little girl may have some evil skills!

Perhaps the truth is as the little girl said!
Even when the old woman took off her shoes, she slapped A Liang on the forehead: "You naughty son! You naughty son! You naughty son! What's so good about that little brat/hoof? Your father has raised you for so many years for nothing! Get married Marriage? You want to get married before your elder brother is married, is there such a reason?"

"Mother! Mother, don't talk nonsense! We are here to seek compensation!" The mean girl was in a hurry.

Now that the matter was over, the rest of the Hou family didn't bother to extort money from Ye Qiongdan, and they all started yelling at A Liang.

How can the onlookers not understand?Naturally knowing that this pair of brothers and sisters were blackmailed by someone, they looked at the pair of brothers and sisters suddenly with pity, and some contractors who hadn't eaten yet decisively handed over the money to Ye Qinghan, and bought meals from him .

After half a stick of incense, the food was sold out, and the Hou family finally calmed down.

Ye Qiongdan stroked the wind-blown broken hair on his sideburns, and asked in a cold voice, "Who came up with this trick?"

The members of the Hou family fell silent, and the onlookers cheered up immediately after hearing this.

"If you don't tell me, I'll sue you to the county government!" Ye Qiongdan said loudly.

"Boss Li, who sells Hu spicy soup, asked me to make it," said the dying old man lying on a stretcher. "I know that A Liang hates me...Boss Li said, as long as I am willing to put my own death on your brothers and sisters Not only can I get a sum of money from you, but I can also get 20 taels of silver from him. In this way, A Liang can also marry a wife."

When Ah Liang heard it, he had mixed feelings.

"It's not me!" A small peddler who was watching the excitement immediately shouted, "Hou Aisan, don't swear! Little girl, I can only be regarded as acquaintances with this Hou Aisan, but we can't talk about friendship. Crawling nonsense!"

"What nonsense?" The old lady of the Hou family shouted, "Your aunt is his cousin's aunt! When we went to Jihetang to see the doctor today, we happened to meet you. You know that my old man has been hit. The poison of the oleander, I just want to use it as a trick, so that I can borrow a knife to kill someone for you! Hmph, you just can't see someone stealing your business!"

"It's not me! It's really not me! I, Li Ying, am open and aboveboard, so I wouldn't do such a thing!"

"You can save this and tell the county master," Ye Qiongdan said, "Or, you can confess to the other participants. I don't believe that you are willing to give 20 taels of silver to Mr. Hou alone. If you confess , can also reduce the sentence, after all, the law will be lenient for group crimes."
