My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings

Gu Shuwen was kicked to the ground by the village head.

The village head's sudden action shocked the county magistrate.

Gu Lizheng has been dealing with me for quite a few years, and I have never seen him so out of control.

Could it be that there is something else behind Fang Zi's plan?

Thinking of this, the county magistrate couldn't help but frown.

The county magistrate waved his hand, and the bailiff stopped the village head.

Gu Shuwen glared at the head of the village angrily. "You old fool, just wait. When I become powerful, I will be the first one to deal with you!"

Gu Lili glared at Gu Shuwen coldly, and Gu Shuwen turned his head away guiltily.

The village head then realized his mistake and quickly bowed to the county magistrate, saying, "I was so angry that I did this. I hope you will forgive me, sir."

The county magistrate shook his head and said, "Gu Lizheng, tell me what's going on!"

The village head glared at Gu Shuwen and said angrily, "Your Excellency the County Magistrate, this prescription was given to me by Gu Lili from our village, not by Gu Shuwen!"

The county magistrate looked at Gu Lili and felt that she looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.

When Gu Shuwen heard what the village head said, his eyes rolled and he sneered.

"Humph! This prescription was given to my mother by a master. It must have been stolen by Li Xihua, and then told to Gu Lili!"

Gu Shuwen's calculations were going very smoothly. Anyway, his mother was confused now.

There's nothing you can get out of asking, so even if we confront each other, I'm not afraid!

When the village head heard Gu Shuwen's shameless words, he almost fainted from anger.

He was just talking nonsense, and he went to tell them the prescription himself last night.

Gu Jingsheng was very grateful at that time, but now in his mouth, she has become his mother's.

Moreover, he trusted Gu Lili more.

If the prescription was really from Niu Cuihua, she would definitely tell me.

Seeing the headman retreating repeatedly, Gu Lili quickly supported him.

"Grandpa Village Head, don't be anxious!" Gu Lili quickly advised.

The head of the village was so angry that he kept using his hands to calm his breath, and for a moment he couldn't utter a word.

Gu Shuwen couldn't help showing a smug look on his face, "Hmph! You old thing, you still want to fight me!"

The county magistrate thought about it for a long time and finally remembered who Gu Lili was.

He quickly asked, "Gu Lili, are you the one whose father died on the battlefield?"

Gu Lili said calmly, "Your Excellency the County Magistrate, that's right!"

"Then who is this Gu Shuwen?" the county magistrate continued to ask.

"Your Excellency the County Magistrate, Gu Lili and I are cousins, and my father is his second uncle. I never thought that you would steal my mother's prescription and come here to take credit for it. This is really ridiculous!" Gu Shuwen got up from the ground and pointed at Gu Lili and said indignantly.

Gu Shuwen didn't know that his mother and Gu Lili had been in court, and he was a little smug for a moment.

"Gu Shuwen, when your mother gave birth to you, did she get her face in her belly?" Gu Lili spat.

Gu Shuwen didn't react to the meaning of Gu Lili's words for a moment. When he reacted, his face changed drastically, but because he was in front of the county magistrate, he didn't dare to do anything.

After hearing what Gu Shuwen said, County Magistrate Yang's eyes changed when he looked at Gu Shuwen.

I can still remember clearly what happened in the county government office that day.

That family is not a good family!

But it is difficult to determine the truth of the matter based on the one-sided statements of a few people.

After all, there is no conflict between the ownership of a person’s character and the ownership of a prescription.

Seeing that County Magistrate Yang was hesitant, Gu Shuwen thought of striking while the iron was hot and said, "If the County Magistrate doesn't believe me, you can send someone to bring my mother over for questioning!"

Anyway, Li Xihua is dead now and my mother is stupid, so what evidence is there?

As long as I insist that the prescription is my mother's, let's see what they will do.

Master Li, who had been silent the whole time, nodded and said, "Sir, County Magistrate, why don't you send someone to bring his mother here? We'll know the truth once we ask her!"

Gu Lili thought for a moment and said, "Sir County Magistrate, actually, there is no need to go through so much trouble. Since Gu Shuwen said this is his mother's prescription, he must know these herbs. Why don't we identify them together and we will know everything clearly!"

After listening to it, the county magistrate thought it made sense and gave Master Li a look, and Master Li went out to prepare.

In the county magistrate's heart, he was more willing to trust Gu Lili.

After all, family education will definitely have an impact on future generations. Gu Shuwen's parents and grandparents are all bad people, and the county magistrate really doesn't believe that they can educate Gu Shuwen well.

Master Li came very quickly, and when he came back, he was holding a tray with several medicines on it.

"Since you two can't agree on which medicine to choose, come and identify the prescription. Gu Shuwen, you go first!" the county magistrate pointed at Gu Shuwen and said.

Gu Shuwen looked at the Chinese medicine on the tray with an unnatural expression on his face. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead because he was too nervous.

Gu Shuwen looked around and suddenly an idea came to his mind. "Gu Lili is my elder, so naturally the elder should go first!"

The county magistrate almost couldn't control his expression and really wanted to roll his eyes at Gu Shuwen.

Gu Lili rolled her eyes at Gu Shuwen and said, "Mr. County Magistrate, it's not fair to identify the medicines this way. Why don't Gu Shuwen and I write down the names of the corresponding herbs? Wouldn't that be better?"

When the county magistrate heard this, he thought it made sense and ordered people to prepare it.

Gu Lili couldn't help but give County Magistrate Yang a thumbs up in her heart.

After a while, the medicine was divided into two portions. The county magistrate glanced at Master Li, and Master Li immediately understood.

He waved to the waiting yamen runner and called over, "Take Gu Shuwen over there to write. Come, Gu Lili, come over here and write."

Gu Shuwen and Gu Lili were separated into two sides. Gu Lili walked to her side, picked up the pen and quickly wrote down the name of the medicine.

On the other hand, Gu Shuwen's hand holding the pen was reluctant to put down.

If you look closely, you will find that Gu Shuwen's hands are shaking slightly.

The county magistrate did not urge him, but looked at him with an ambiguous expression.

Gu Shuwen thought about it, gritted his teeth, picked up the pen and wrote the name of the medicine on the paper.

The county magistrate walked over to Gu Shuwen and frowned when he saw him.

Among the four Chinese medicinal herbs, three were wrong.

He turned around and went to Gu Lili, and his brows finally relaxed.

"How dare you, Gu Shuwen, deceive me. You couldn't even write the name of the medicine correctly, yet you still dared to say that this was your mother's prescription. You are such a bastard!" County Magistrate Yang looked at Gu Shuwen and shouted angrily!

Gu Shuwen was so frightened that his legs went limp and he fell to his knees, but he remained tough.

"My Lord, I have been studying all my life and I don't know much about pharmacology, but this is definitely my mother's prescription. If my Lord sees that Gu Lili is pretty and favors her, I can do nothing about it. Justice is in the hearts of the people."

When the county magistrate heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

This bastard!

However, what he said seems to make sense. We cannot convict people simply based on whether they can recognize the prescription. This would easily lead to criticism.

"Master Li, go! Drive my carriage and bring Niu Cuihua here for the confrontation!"

Gu Lili was also very angry about what Gu Shuwen said.

She hurriedly said, "Your Excellency the County Magistrate, I have another way!"
