Investigating a case requires evidence. Although the result has been revealed just now, if we arrest people without evidence, and the higher-ups investigate, Tian Xingjian will lose his job.

Tian Xingjian ordered his men to take Ling Feng back to the county government office, and then the constable and the coroner went to Ling Feng's home.

The hunting dog Xiao Wei dug out Jip's clothes from Ling Feng's stove, and there was still a corner that had not been burned to ashes.

The fabrics of the clothes of the Western Regions people are different from those of the Ming Ning Kingdom, and they can be distinguished at a glance. Moreover, the Western Regions people like to use incense to fumigate their clothes, and over the years, the smell remains on the clothes.

There were also ashes of burnt hair in the stove.

At this point, Ling Feng confessed that he was greedy for profit and wanted to monopolize the revenue of the candy bean shop. He invited Jip to the tavern for dinner and drinks under the pretext of sharing the money with Jip.

After eating, they both went their separate ways.

Halfway through the journey, Jip discovered that the money Ling Feng gave him was not correct, so he went to Ling Feng's house to argue with Ling Feng.

During the argument, Ling Feng got anxious and pulled out a knife and stabbed him.

Ling Feng had long wanted to kill Jip, get the secret recipe for making jelly beans, and monopolize the profits.

After accidentally killing Jip that night, he remained calm. He asked his wife and children to close the doors and windows, and he worked in the kitchen for half the night.

He thought he had handled the matter cleanly, but he didn't expect that Jeep's whereabouts were seen by the night watchman.

Although he and Jip had been doing business together for many years, they did not interact often, so he did not know that Jip's middle finger on his right hand was a deformed finger.

I didn't pay attention when dealing with the body, so I left a handle.

Tian Xingjian sentenced Ling Feng to death that day and gave his family three days to prove their innocence. If they could not prove that Ling Feng did not kill the person, he would be executed after four days.

Most of Ling Feng’s property was confiscated to appease Jip’s family.

However, because Jip's family was not in Mingning State, Tian Xingjian was required to issue a document, and then the official post would send the money to Jip's home.

The people heard about Ling Feng's murder and witnessed Tian Xingjian's handling of the case, and everyone applauded.

It’s a pity that such a good official is about to be transferred to the post of Shengjing prefect.

Thinking of this, everyone felt unhappy.

Because Tian Xiaoxiao will definitely follow County Magistrate Tian to Shengjing, and she won’t be able to watch melons anymore.

You can't just run to Shengjing City to eat melons, right?

Lin Yunzhi took Tian Xiaoxiao out for a walk for an entire afternoon.

Tian Xiaoxiao wanted to know how the case was progressing, and was a little absent-minded while shopping.

While buying the four treasures of the study for Lin Bingsheng, Lin Yunzhi led a few older children to choose pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Tian Xiaoxiao sat on a chair provided for customers in the store and teased Daju.

The people nearby had been waiting so hard that they just wanted to eat melons, but after Tian Xiaoxiao left, she no longer expressed her feelings.

Tian Xiaoxiao was sitting on a chair and watching the store owner introducing his products, when a dream came to her mind.

It was a dream of seeking a child.

[Qingchen, the owner of this shop is really a love-sick man. He has been married for 20 years and has no children, but he has never left his wife. Such a man is rare in the world.]

Tian Xiaoxiao praised the owner in her heart.

[If this happened in our place, if a woman couldn't give birth to a child, she would most likely be rejected by her husband's family, divorced, and kicked out of the house.]

[It’s not that his wife can’t have children, it’s that his wife isn’t a woman, how can she have children?] The big orange cat lying on the ground meowed a few times.

The people nearby who were pretending to come buy something immediately put down their pens and papers, knowing that there was melon to be had again, and concentrated on eating it.

[What? Not a woman? What is this operation? ]

[The shop owner didn't know and thought he had married a woman who had loved him for twenty years.]

[Alas, the shop owner's affection is wasted. ]

[When the child was born, a wandering Taoist priest happened to come to his home and read his fate. He said that although the child was a boy, he had to be raised as a girl, otherwise he would not live to adulthood.]

[The family didn’t believe it at first, but the child got sick every other day. They visited famous doctors in Mingning Country, but all the doctors gave the conclusion that the child would not live past the age of 20.]

[The family then remembered what the Taoist said. Not to mention, since raising her as a daughter, she has had no problems at all.]

[The family moved from Duchuan to Wucheng so that no one would know about their son’s past.]

[At the age of fifteen, the son of that family had grown into a beauty so beautiful that she could make fishes sink to the depths, geese fall to the ground, and the moon hide in shame on flowers.]

[He had a sweetheart, a man. In the end, he managed to marry that man.]

When people heard Qingchen's voice, their jaws dropped.

Today's melon is really delicious.

The shop owner was still introducing pens, inks, paper and inkstones to Lin Yunzhi when he heard that Tian Xiaoxiao had eaten the melon that hit her head, and it was such an explosive melon at that.

I couldn't even speak at that moment.

[Qingchen, a man disguised as a woman may be able to conceal it for one or two years, but they have been together day and night for twenty years without being discovered. Is the store owner stupid or is the man's disguise skillful? ]

Tian Xiaoxiao thought hard.

[Well, have you ever heard of hermaphroditism? ]

[I've heard that there was a hermaphrodite player in our country who underwent surgery to change from bisexual to female. I understand what you said. Life is so wonderful.]

Tian Xiaoxiao lives in the 21st century and has seen more bizarre things in the entertainment industry than this one.

No one can control genetic mutation, but people in this era cannot accept it calmly and try to cover it up, which has harmed many people.

[The shop owner’s wife is actually a woman psychologically, but this kind of hermaphrodite cannot have children. I guess she doesn’t even know it.] Qingchen sighed.

[There is one advantage of this era. If you can't give birth yourself, you can find a concubine for your husband, and the child born will be registered under your name, and it will be considered your own child. ]

Tian Xiaoxiao recalled the various mistresses in her previous life and the scenes in which the original wife fought against the mistresses.

[The shop owner loves that person so much that he has never taken a concubine.] Qingchen's thoughts were incomprehensible to the onlookers.

[Since the two of them like each other, can we help them?] Tian Xiaoxiao suddenly felt sorry for them.

[When I heard the store owner's dream a few days ago, I helped them deal with it. The store owner's wife has become a real woman. As for the child, it depends on their luck. ]

[Qingchen, how can you be so nice!] Tian Xiaoxiao excitedly picked up the big orange dog on the ground and gave it a few big kisses.

The onlookers saw Tian Xiaoxiao's actions, which revealed a childish innocence. The man and the cat were like a beautiful landscape.

[I helped them because they had no children and the owner never left him and never complained about his wife. If it was someone with such a ruthless heart, I would ignore him.]

The shop owner really wanted to come over and thank his benefactor, but ever since the people of Wucheng heard Tian Xiaoxiao's inner thoughts last time, it had become a convention that Tian Xiaoxiao must not be allowed to know that everyone could hear her inner thoughts.

So when Tian Xiaoxiao left the store, the owner bowed three times in the direction Tian Xiaoxiao was leaving.

Then, without fear of the people's eyes, he closed the shop and went home to see his wife.

The people of Wucheng are very tolerant and inclusive. As for the incident involving the shop owner and his wife, everyone just listened to it and let it go, and no one gossiped about it anymore. They were looking forward to Tian Xiaoxiao giving them some delicious melons to eat before she left.

After returning home, Tian Xingjian was still in the yamen and Tian Xiaoxiao was sleepy, so Ade carried Tian Xiaoxiao back to the room to let her rest.

Having eaten melons and done good things today, Tian Xiaoxiao fell asleep contentedly.
