The Little Lucky Girl
Chapter 142 Solve the doubts
Ming Youyou looked at him sympathetically. "How about this? You know how to make medicine, right? You can make some common medicines and give some to people each time you prick them. It won't be dangerous if you only prick their arms and legs. I guess someone will be willing to take advantage of this."
The apprentice finally regained some spirit, "But those medicines are from the clinic..."
"You are so stupid. Why don't you go pick some in the wild? You can use it after drying it."
"You mean mugwort, yew grass, or something like that?" The apprentice was discouraged. "What kind of medicine is that? We all know that the ones they dry themselves may be better than ours."
"Then why don't you pick a few more herbs?" Ming Youyou remembered that she still owed her second grandfather some medicine. "Make some commonly used medicines, such as patches that can be applied to the waist and shoulders. Many people like them."
The apprentice's eyes widened. He had never seen this kind of medicine patch before.
When Ming Youyou saw Zheng Huan and the others coming to see her, she waved her hand and said goodbye to the apprentice, "Come to Xiaguan Village to play with me when you have a day off. I'll take you to find those herbs."
The apprentice was about to say that there was no rest in the clinic when he saw the old doctor winking at him. He immediately perked up and shouted to Ming Youyou who had already run away: "Okay, wait for me to find you, don't forget it."
Ming Youyou ran towards Zheng Huan, "Are we going to see Master Tao now?"
Zheng Huan shook his head. "Master Tao is very busy right now. He probably won't be free until the evening."
"But Mrs. Tao just sent someone over to invite us to dinner." Feng Xu added with a chuckle.
Ming Youyou's eyes lit up and she waved her hand, "Let's go and ask Chef Zhang to order some food."
The four men rushed towards the backyard of the county government office. Halfway through, they saw a familiar man. "Isn't this the fat yamen runner who couldn't catch the parrot?"
Ming Youyou stared at the man's back for a while, then suddenly ran up, jumped up, patted his shoulder and said, "Second Brother Fang, it turned out to be you."
Fang Er was startled by the sudden noise and stumbled, almost falling. He hurriedly held onto a big tree next to him to steady himself, but a lot of feathers fell out of his robe.
Feng Xu picked it up first and took a look. "This is the parrot's feather, right? Why are there so many of them? Are you going to pluck them all out?"
Ming Youyou looked at the color of the feathers and her eyes widened. "This is not a parrot's." She excitedly grabbed Fang Er's robe and wanted to turn it over to see. "Did you perform a magic trick?"
Fang Er was afraid that she might not be able to control her strength, so he quickly bent down and followed her strength, "Be careful, don't break my eating utensils."
Zheng Huan and the others didn't expect that there was such a mystery, and immediately gathered around with interest.
Fang Er saw that he was blocked in all four directions, and he couldn't run away. He simply stopped and confessed, "Yes, there was more than one parrot in the lobby just now. I changed it every time I caught it."
"You have contributed to this," he said to Ming Youyou with a smile, "If it weren't for the idea you gave me to turn it into a fish tank, my master and I wouldn't have thought of using this trick."
Zheng Huan and the others suddenly realized, "So it's not that the bird is magical, but that you replaced it in time."
Fang Er had just performed a superb performance, but unfortunately he couldn't tell anyone about it. Now that he had an audience who could tell about it, he couldn't help but brag about it proudly.
"At first, the adults just wanted to try to make the Qi family's parrot speak a few more words, so I found a bird trainer I knew when I was performing. Unfortunately, the training time was too short and the parrot was too stupid, so it was useless."
"I saw that Master was so worried that he couldn't eat, so I wanted to perform a magic trick to cheer him up, and this idea came to me by accident. We found seven or eight parrots and taught each one a sentence. When the time comes, I will release the parrot that Master needs, depending on his gestures."
Ming Youyou had seen Fang Er's performance and was quite impressed, but Zheng Huan and the other two were stunned. They hadn't noticed any flaws at all and couldn't help but exclaimed, "What a miraculous skill."
Lu Tai recalled for a moment and asked curiously, "But how did the parrot know to go to the scholar's wife and his concubine?"
Fang Er grinned and said, "This is the skill of bird trainers. To put it simply, they tampered with their clothes and smeared some special scent on them, and the birds followed the smell and flew over."
Several people were full of admiration, "It's amazing to be able to develop such a skill, and it's even more amazing that Master Tao can think of using it."
Zheng Huan thought: "Since the parrot can be used, why not teach it to say a few more words, or even directly tell the truth to deter the criminals, wouldn't that be simpler?"
Fang Erke couldn't answer this question. "I just did what the adults told me to do. If you want to know the answer, you have to ask the adults."
So after dinner, several people went to line up at the door of Magistrate Tao's study. There were too many questions about today's events, and they were not the only ones who wanted to know the answers. After they were called in, they found that Principal Pei, Master Ji and Elder Zong were also in the study.
Magistrate Tao did not even dare to sit down. He stood obediently beside the elder of the clan, pouring tea and water for the old man from time to time. He was even more obedient than an elementary school student.
Seeing the four people greeting the elder in a familiar manner, Magistrate Tao understood. He glared at them in condemnation and asked with his mouth, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Several people chuckled and said, "The old man said his whereabouts must be kept secret."
Magistrate Tao nodded, but he was not really angry. "The old man is of noble status, so you are right not to say anything, but can you help me ask? You are not considering me as your own. Oh, I am so sad."
The four people stared at Magistrate Tao with an exaggerated expression in astonishment. Ming Youyou took out the needle bag that the old doctor had given her and said, "My lord, are you too excited? Why is your tone of voice so different? Do you want me to give you a few injections to wake you up?"
"Go away, go away. I'm fine." Magistrate Tao's eyelids twitched as he looked at the needle and he automatically moved a little further away from her.
"Okay, let's talk about the case quickly." Elder Zong said, and Zheng Huan and the others took the opportunity to raise their questions.
"You mean why I only let the parrots say such specious sentences as 'You harmed me, and you'?" Magistrate Tao smiled. "I talked with Qi Ming once in Pingyang City. He is extremely intelligent and thoughtful. He cannot be fooled easily."
"Plus, the Pingyang County Magistrate has tried the case several times before. He has accumulated experience in court and knows how to avoid falling into the traps set by the judge. Ordinary methods are useless."
Everyone thought back to Qi Ming's performance and found that since he opened his mouth, the emotions of the onlookers were led by him and they felt that he was really innocent, so this person was indeed a powerful character.
