I didn’t want to bring trouble on myself, so I lowered my head and tried to slowly creep past the corner.
"Wait a moment."
Cai Ziwei, who was lying on the lazy chair, suddenly opened her eyes and looked straight at me.
I laughed twice: "Good evening, what can I do for you?"
After looking at me, Cai Ziwei said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Can't I call you if I have nothing to do? Have you eaten? There is fish soup left for you in the kitchen."
Why are you so kind? I saved her life, but I didn't see this little girl thank me.
Don't think you gave me any medicine in the fish soup.
"Um, thank you. I ate outside."
After hearing what I said, Cai Ziwei's face instantly drooped, and she said lightly, "Oh, that's up to you."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and rested again.
I was completely confused. Although women's moods are changeable, they can't change so quickly.
Not daring to provoke him again, I continued to walk back to my room cautiously.
The deaths of three members of Chen San's family were so strange that it caused a lot of waves in the local area.
I am very busy, but I am not busy solving cases, but busy treating people in the village.
"Doctor Shangguan, I always feel that my mouth is bitter and smells bad. What should I do?"
"And me! My menstruation has been very irregular lately."
The people in the room were talking to each other, which made my head spin. I had no choice but to help Cai Zixin, so I asked them to line up one by one, check their pulses one by one, and then write down the following about their diseases. Give them prescriptions and let them take the medicine themselves.
Of course, our work is not in vain.
Grandma Cai's family is farming, and the B&B also sells dry goods. On this day, everything was sold out.
During dinner in the evening, Cai Zixin prepared a table full of dishes. His eyes looking at me became more and more fiery: "I have to pay tribute to Xiao Rui for this glass of wine today. Our place has not been so lively for a long time."
I was also a little embarrassed and quickly picked up my wine glass: "Thanks to Brother Xin for taking care of me."
"Xiao Rui, I like you more and more now. Do you really not consider my sister? My sister is also pursued by many people."
"Brother!" Cai Ziwei's face turned red and her beautiful eyes stared at her brother.
I drank the wine in the glass in one gulp: "Thank you, Brother Xin, for the compliment, but I don't think about these things yet. Let's have a drink."
"Okay! Anyway, you are the number one choice for my sister-in-law!"
As long as two men have the same topic, drinking is like drinking water. After three or two glasses of cat urine, they can no longer tell who is who.
At the end, I seemed to have lost consciousness, but I seemed to be very awake. I could feel someone carrying me back to the room, and I could also feel someone sitting beside my bed, and something soft and warm fell on my face. .
Unfortunately, everything is too dreamy and I can't tell them apart.
When I woke up the next day, I felt dizzy and the world was spinning when I got out of bed.
Someone was knocking on the door outside. I crawled to the door on my hands and knees and opened it.
Outside the house, Cai Ziwei held a bowl of medicine in her hand and looked at me fiercely: "My grandma asked you to drink this bowl of hangover medicine."
"Okay, thank you."
I took the bowl and drank the medicine inside. My stomach felt warm and my body gained a lot of strength, but I still couldn't get up from the ground.
Seeing me like this, Ziwei was kind-hearted. She gave me a hand and put me on the bed.
"If you don't know how to drink, just drink less. My brother's drinking capacity can drink you to death."
Her tone of voice was still fierce, but I could feel that she actually cared about me.
"thank you."
Ziwei snorted lightly, turned and left without saying anything.
But what I saw clearly was that the roots of her ears were red.
Yeah, my charm is still as good as before.
After regaining some strength, I changed my clothes and was about to go out. Suddenly I saw Grandma Cai walking up to me worriedly: "Rui Wazi, you should not go out recently."
"Ah, what's going on?"
I don't quite understand what Grandma Cai said.
Grandma Cai sighed heavily: "Grandma Chai is dead, and now people outside suspect that you killed her."
But I still looked confused: "Who did I kill? Who is Chai Sihai?"
Cai Zixin's face on the side also looked a little solemn: "Chai Sihai is Granny Chai."
"How could I? I have no grievances against him. I have no motive for killing him at all."
There have been too many things happening in the village recently, and I am the only outsider, so all the faults are naturally suspected of me first.
Cai Zixin was also a little puzzled: "Mistress, is there a mistake? Our Xiaorui just came here and only chatted a few words with Granny Chai. How could he kill someone?"
"There are too many rumors outside, and no one will believe what I say." Grandma Cai touched my head, "Ruiwazi is very good, I believe you will not kill her."
I was suddenly moved.
Although it feels uncomfortable to be wrongly accused, what makes me feel heartwarming is that the Cai family has always stood by me and never doubted me.
Since being suspected by the people in the village, many fewer people have come to see me for medical treatment.
Among the only few people, there are still many who are here to cause trouble.
I was sitting on the chair chatting away, grinding the dried herbs. A young man in his early twenties wearing round glasses sat in front of me and looked at me with a scrutinizing look.
These days, I am used to this kind of look, and I said without changing my expression: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Give me your hand and I will feel your pulse."
The young man stretched out his hand obediently: "I didn't expect you to be so calm after things like this."
I smiled lightly: "What else can I do? Run out and tell everyone loudly that I had nothing to do with Grandma Chai's death? Then there will probably be another rumor in the future that I am a little mentally ill."
"I can help you reverse the case."
The young man spoke astonishingly, and I looked at him in surprise.
"You may not remember, but my mother suffered from severe rheumatism before. After taking your medicine, she improved a lot. She treats people for free. I still believe you are innocent. And my father is a villager. Sir, I have many privileges."
Afraid that I wouldn't believe him, he added another sentence.
I smiled bitterly, what else can I do if things have developed to this point? I can only believe it.
Seeing that I didn't refuse, the young man suddenly became excited.
The young man introduced himself and said his name was Liu Ben. He was twenty-five years old and a graduate student in history. He was visiting relatives during the summer vacation and his favorite thing to read was detective novels.
Liu Ben held a pen and paper in his hand and began to ask seriously: "What were you doing between eleven and one o'clock last night?"
