After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 56: Sunrise in the East, Rain in the West

As it got dark, two yamen runners tied up the boy they had captured from the An Family Restaurant and quietly went to the back door. Not long after, Qin Xiaofeng brought the two of them here.

"Boss, we've caught them, two little kids," said the tall bailiff.

"It's really hateful!" Qin Xiaofeng clenched his fists.

"Boss, don't be angry. Have all the people over there been caught?" asked the shorter bailiff.

"He was caught. The funny thing is that Wu Ah Ming tried to escape from the toilet but ended up falling into the pit."

"Evil deeds will be punished," said the shorter bailiff.

"Boss, this time it was all thanks to the eldest lady of the An family and the second young master's wife of the Lin family. The arrest of these two people was cleverly planned. Not even a teacup was broken. It was effortless."

"That's good. Once this matter is settled, the Lord will reward you according to your merits. Let's go."

"Yes."

Just as everyone was about to turn around, a voice came.

"My lord, please stay."

It was Ding Xirui who came over with Chenpi.

"Sir, this person is the wife of the second young master of the Lin family." The tall yamen runner introduced.

"I, Ding, greet you, Your Excellency."

"Madam, please stand up. We would like to thank you first." Qin Xiaofeng clasped his fists and continued, "We will report the arrests at the restaurant to the magistrate. Jishiditang and Bencaotang will be rewarded. Madam, don't worry."

"Your Excellency is too kind. I am not seeking a reward. I wonder if you could tell me a little about what happened in Mulian Lane. My family is waiting for good news from the government."

"Everyone in Mulian Lane has been arrested." Qin Xiaofeng answered directly.

"Thank you!" Ding Xirui bowed, feeling delighted.

"I'll take my leave now."

"Please take care, sir." Ding Xirui bowed again.

"Xirui, that's great." After the bailiffs left, An Yumo jumped out.

"Yes. I feel relieved," Ding Xirui patted his chest and continued, "Chenpi, there's nothing to do here. Go home and tell everyone that your hard work over the past two days has not been in vain."

"Yes, miss." Chenpi jumped three times and went towards Bencaotang.

As the night deepened, Ding Xirui said goodbye: "Yumo, curfew is almost here. I'll go back first. I should go to Xishi again tomorrow. If I have time, I will come to see you."

"Okay, let's go." An Yumo sent Ding Xirui to the carriage. She felt better because she had finally helped her good friend.

Mrs. An was ill these two days, and she was at home taking care of her mother. When she arrived at the restaurant today, she learned that something big had happened to the Lin family. She hurried to Bencaotang to inquire about the situation. Before she left, she ran into Ding Xirui who was rushing back from Mulian Lane. Before she had time to say a few words of concern, Ding Xirui asked her for help. So the two designed a capture plan.

Looking at the departing carriage, An Yumo felt complicated. She was relieved that Ding Xirui and the Lin family were fine, but she was a little worried that Ding Xirui was still busy and didn't know how long he would be busy.

In the county government, Qin Xiaofeng led the prisoners captured from Mulian Lane into the prison. When he passed Qian Asheng's cell, he shouted, "Brother, how did you get in?"

Wu Ah Ming pretended not to hear anything and did not react at all. Qian Ah Sheng, that idiot, actually exposed him, and he did not want to be charged with instigating others to do evil.

"Brother! Brother!" Qian Asheng stretched out his hands from the cell and waved them wildly, trying to grab Wu Aming.

"Come here, put this man in solitary confinement and don't allow him to talk to anyone else." Qin Xiaofeng ordered.

"Yes." The jailer came over and locked Wu A Ming into a cell in the prison, and the others were locked up opposite Qian A Sheng.

When leaving, Qin Xiaofeng called a jailer and quietly instructed him, "Pay attention to the movements inside, write down their conversation, and report it to the adults later."

"Yes," the jailer agreed.

After leaving the prison, Qin Xiaofeng and others went to the back hall of the yamen to report to Magistrate Wang.

"Sir, we have accomplished our mission and brought back all the people from Mulian Lane."

"Okay, you have worked hard on this matter. Let the brothers have a good rest. Tonight, Master Yuan will go to interrogate them and calm them down first."

"Yes! I'll take my leave." Qin Xiaofeng walked out.

In the Lin family courtyard, everyone was waiting for Ding Xirui. Lin Mingxuan walked to the door and gazed into the night.

The sound of a carriage was heard.

"The young lady is back." The servant saw Ayi and shouted.

Lin Mingxuan walked forward, and the others walked towards the door.

Lifting the curtain, Lin Mingxuan's hand had already reached out. He got off the carriage by the handrail, and this action seemed to be familiar to him.

"Xi Rui, what's the situation in Xifang District?" Mrs. Lin asked.

"Mom, that group of people have all been arrested." Ding Xirui said with a smile.

"That's great!" Everyone couldn't help but smile. They had been busy for a long time, waiting for this moment.

"Come in quickly and have dinner." said Mr. Lin.

"Okay." Everyone from the Lin family walked in.

The government has completed the arrest, but I don't know how effective the clinic's persuasion is. At the dinner table, Ding Xirui looked at Lin Mingxuan, but there seemed to be a cloud of worry between Lin Mingxuan's brows.

"Doctor Sun from Zixia Hall has agreed to testify with us, but Doctor Lan from Fangcao Hall is still hesitant." Lin Mingxuan saw the doubts in Ding Xirui's mind and said it out.

"Well, this matter was just discussed in the hospital. After Xirui came back, I forgot to talk about it again." Wen Yuexin said.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Ding Xirui smiled at Wen Yuexin, and then continued, "Why did Doctor Lan hesitate?"

"Cowardly and fearful." Lin Mingyuan said.

"Mingyuan, you have to control your temper." Master Lin said. He looked at Ding Xirui and continued, "Doctor Lan is probably worried about being retaliated against in the future."

"Hmm..." Ding Xirui nodded to show his understanding.

"I'm afraid it's not possible to continue the glory of Fangcaotang without paying any price," said Lin Mingyuan.

"That's true. Doctor Lan is too cautious, and his son is even worse. He always retreats when faced with difficulties." Lin Mingxuan added.

"I hope we can receive good news tomorrow. Let's eat." Mrs. Lin spoke.

"Yes." Everyone ate in silence.

When she returned to the courtyard in the evening, Ding Xirui did not go back to her room directly. She stretched out her arms and started stretching. She was so nervous these days that her neck was sore.

"Are you tired?" Lin Mingxuan asked.

"Well, some," she replied.

The next moment, a pair of hands appeared on her shoulders.

"Ah!" Ding Xirui was startled.

"Don't be nervous, sit down in front of the corridor and I'll give you a massage." Lin Mingxuan said.

"Okay." Today was a good day, and Ding Xirui was in a very relaxed mood, so she agreed readily. If it were a normal day, she might feel embarrassed.

The two of them arrived at the corridor.

His fingers moved on his shoulders, and the person's hair pierced his hands. Lin Mingxuan felt his hands itchy, and his heart was itchy too.

In the Lan family's study, Lan Jixian was still hesitating. He walked back and forth in the study, feeling very troubled.

"Someone, go and call the young master." Lan Jixian ordered.

Soon, Lan Yiming, the young master of the Lan family, arrived. Lan Jixian told his son about going to court to give evidence and let him make the decision.

"Dad, you can make the decision on this matter. I will listen to you," said Lan Yiming.

"Yiming, you can't rely on your father all your life. Sooner or later you will inherit the clinic and become the head of the family. What if I force you to make the decision this time?" Lan Jixian said.

"Dad...if there are no other clinics and only Fangcao Tang comes forward, what should we do if we are targeted by that group of people? My son doesn't want to be scolded or beaten. What if Fangcao Tang has no business, how will we live in the future? We'd better refuse." Lan Yiming said in a low voice.

"Oh!" Lan Jixian looked at his son and shook his head.

"Go back."

"Yes." Lan Yiming felt relieved and left quickly.

After her son left, Mrs. Lan walked in with food.

"It's all your fault. Look at your good son." Lan Jixian said unhappily.

Madam Lan put the food heavily on the table with a "bang". "Did I spoil you? Humph~ Who is it that keeps saying 'no trouble is a blessing' and 'big things turn into small things, small things turn into nothing' all day long? Who can't be the master of others but can be the master of us at home? Who is it that keeps saying 'don't cause me trouble' all day long?"

"You--" Without waiting for Lan Jixian to say anything else, Mrs. Lan turned and left, slamming the door before going out!

"I've had enough!" Mrs. Lan went back to her room angrily.

Lan Jixian was angry, but his wife's words kept ringing in his ears. Was it really as his wife said? Was he a wicked person? Was he timid? Was he a poor teacher?

Two months ago, when the scoundrels went to Fangcao Hall to cause trouble, his son quietly asked whether he should report to the police, but he interrupted him immediately. He remembered that his son did not seem to have the same temperament as he did now when he was a child.

Thinking of this, Lan Jixian walked towards the desk step by step and began to write a letter.
