Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

When Nanny Chun brought Dong'er back to the front hall again, Xu Mingzhe had already returned and was reporting the situation to Xu Yiru and his wife.

The prefect of Yongshun Prefecture was named Ding Maoye, a descendant of a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River. He had been in office for nine consecutive years in Yongshun Prefecture, which means he had already been in office when Yongkang Prefecture was hit by a flood that year.

Ding Maoye learned the identity of the visitor from the yamen runner. His eyes moved slightly, and then he personally received Xu Mingzhe.

"It's Mr. Xu. I'm sorry for not welcoming you!"

Although Xu Mingzhe is a merchant, his younger brother Xu Mingli is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and is expected to succeed the Minister of State. This person has a very good reputation since he took office, and his promotion speed is much faster than his. It can be seen that he is quite favored by the emperor. If he can make friends with him...

Xu Mingzhe bowed and said, "Master Ding, you are too polite. Mingzhe came here today to report something."

"Oh? Please go ahead, Mr. Xu!" Ding Maoye asked in confusion.

Xu Mingzhe briefly explained the cause of the incident, "Master Ding, this shows that this man is just one of the henchmen. This group of people is so rampant, so the gang must be quite large. Please investigate thoroughly!"

Something flashed in Ding Maoye's eyes, and then he frowned and said, "It's been many years since then, and I can only do my best. But rest assured, Master Xu, since I have caught one, I will follow the clues and investigate thoroughly to the end! Give the people justice!"

Xu Mingzhe bowed and thanked him, then handed the man over to the bailiff to be taken away.

Afterwards, Xu Mingzhe pleaded with Ding Maoye to send a message to the Chang family if he caught the gang.

Ding Maoye's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, and he tried to find out the relationship between the Xu and Chang families. Xu Mingzhe was not stupid either, and he just said that the two families had some business dealings.

Ding Maoye seemed to believe it and wanted to invite him to have dinner. However, Xu Mingzhe declined on the grounds that he was just passing by and his parents were still waiting for him at the inn, so he said goodbye and left.

After hearing this, Xu Yiru and his wife did not say much, but only asked Xu Mingzhe to prepare to leave for Qinghe County in the afternoon.

Seeing Nanny Chun and the other two coming, Xu Mingzhe had Wu Daya brought in.

The little girl lowered her head timidly, her little hands nervously pinching the corners of her clothes.

"Da Ya!"

Hearing the familiar voice, the little girl raised her head suddenly, looked at her mother, and rushed over sobbing, "Mom!"

"Mom is here, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Dong'er reached out and hugged her daughter, her eyes red.

Then she pulled her daughter forward and knelt down, "Thank you, Master and Madam, thank you, Young Master!"

The little girl was a little confused, but she kowtowed too.

"Get up! Is there anything else you want to pack? Let Xu Yuan go with you to get it?" Old Madam Xu asked in a gentle voice.

"Madam, I want to go back and pack some clothes, and I also want to deal with the house I have now."

Wu Dayou has been imprisoned and they have left, so there is no need to keep the house.

"Okay, go ahead! Zhe'er, let Xu Yuan take two people to go with Dong'er. Go quickly and come back quickly. We will set off at 5 p.m.!"

Everyone agreed and went their separate ways.

On the other side, the Liu family compound.

Today was the day agreed with Doctor Meng to reconnect Liu Fulin's broken bones. Therefore, neither Liu Xiumei nor her daughter went to the workshop to work.

Xu Ruolan and her daughter, Xu Huairen, He Feng brothers, and Ye Miaoyin and her daughter were also in the room.

It’s just that the others came out of concern, while Xu Huairen, the He Feng brothers, and Ye Miaoyin and her daughter came to help.

Four people with kung fu skills were responsible for holding down the limbs, and Ye Miaoyin was here to break her legs.

Liu Xu looked at the master holding the weapon, no, the hammer, and had an indescribable feeling.

It was weird no matter how you looked at it that her master, a woman who looked gentle and dignified, would do such a cruel thing.

After Doctor Meng said it was okay, Han Duoduo quickly stuffed a piece of cotton cloth into Liu Fulin's mouth.

Everyone else in the room was very nervous, especially Liu Laishun's family. Doctor Meng saw this and frowned, then drove everyone out without saying a word.

Liu Xu looked at the closed door and curled her lips.

In the room, no one was timid except the person involved. Before the fight even started, Liu Fulin was already sweating profusely.

Ye Miaoyin took advantage of Liu Fulin giving a wink to a few people, and Han Duoduo rolled her eyes and let go of Liu Fukang's shoulders.

"Grandpa Meng, how long will it take? Are you not ready for us to hold you down?"

"Why are you panicking? I'll find some painkillers and give them to him later, and the pain will be less severe." As he spoke, he rummaged through the medicine box.

When Liu Fulin heard this, his eyes lit up and his body relaxed a lot.

It happened in a flash. Ye Miaoyin struck down with two hammers without hesitation, hitting the exact spot designated by Doctor Meng. Han Duoduo even pressed her hand back at the moment her mother's hammer fell.

"Ugh..." Liu Fulin felt the pain spread from his legs to his whole body. His face turned pale, his eyes bulged, his features twisted, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. Because his mouth was stuffed with cotton cloth, he could only make vague groans of pain. His body trembled involuntarily, and his limbs struggled hard, but he was held down tightly and couldn't break free at all.

Doctor Meng was so shocked by this sudden situation that his hands trembled and he almost threw the medicine bottle in his hand away. "What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to wait a moment? I haven't given him the painkillers yet?"

The others blinked and looked at Ye Miaoyin and her daughter. Ye Miaoyin said... "I've never heard that you had any painkillers before. I thought you were just saying that to divert his attention."

Doctor Meng was so angry that he blew his beard. He poured out a pill and fed it to Liu Fulin, "That was many years ago. Can't I, your uncle Meng, improve my medical skills?"

Liu Fulin felt pain and speechless at the moment, feeling cheated. Fortunately, as the pills entered his mouth, the pain in his legs did gradually subside.

"Grandpa Meng, should we still press it?" Han Duoduo asked with a blink.

"Hold on, I have to set his bones. Painkillers won't stop the pain. Don't let him move, or else the bones will be set crooked and we'll have to start over again."

Doctor Meng began to carefully examine the broken leg, and as he examined it he said, "The position of the break is just right. I'm going to cut open the flesh and remove the wrong part. Hold it steady."

The others nodded cautiously.

Outside the house, a group of people were waiting at the door without moving, so they naturally heard the conversation in the house clearly. They were worried and a little amused.

Doctor Meng used silver needles to stop the bleeding, cut the bones, stretched the tendons, reconnected the bones, and then sewed them up. It took two hours.

Even though Liu Fulin took painkillers, he still fell asleep in the pain.

After the legs were clamped securely with a wooden board, everyone let go of their hands. Doctor Meng wiped the sweat off his face and motioned He Lei to open the door.

The door opened and everyone outside rushed in. The Liu family was naturally very worried.

"Doctor Meng, Fulin's leg?" Liu Laishun asked softly.

Doctor Meng wiped his hands and replied, "So far, the treatment has been successful. Now we have to see how he recovers. He will definitely cry out in pain when he wakes up, which is normal. Someone will go back with me to get some medicine later. Give it to him to drink when he wakes up. It contains painkillers and medicine to help him recover. He may feel sleepy after drinking it. You must take good care of him during this period, and don't move him around until his bones have grown back."

"Hey, okay! Thank you, Doctor Meng, thank you, Doctor Meng!" Liu Xiumei was about to kneel down to Doctor Meng, but was stopped by the old man.

"Well, it's the doctor's duty. Besides, I have received the consultation fee, so you don't have to do this."

Everyone in the Liu family had tears in their eyes. Now Liu Laishun was almost recovered, and Liu Fulin's broken bones had been reconnected. The dark cloud that had been hanging over their family's heads was beginning to dissipate.

Aunt Lin asked someone to pour out all the blood and water, and brought in hot water for Doctor Meng to wash.

After the old man packed up, he hurried back to get the medicine, and Liu Fukang followed him to get it.
