At this time, Doctor Zhang had already written the prescription. He wanted to give it to Meng Yu, but when he saw that the radish was tiny, he passed it to Fan He.

Fan He glanced at Cao the butcher and immediately took over: "I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll go get the medicine!"

Fan He warned: "Don't play tricks!"

Meng Yu stretched out his hand: "I'll go, I don't believe him!"

Fan He wanted to persuade her, but then he thought, this little girl is smart, maybe because children from poor families grow up early, she knows more than other children? Maybe she really can?

This child is a little bit amazing, and he is also very eloquent!

But he was too young, so Fan He simply said to Doctor Zhang: "Well, Cao Boping will pay, and you can help pick and boil the medicine. If your mother is free, come and take a look more often!"

Mrs. Zhang immediately promised: "No problem, I'm close."

Fan He turned to Meng Yu again: "Is this okay?"

Meng Yu nodded.

Doctor Zhang hesitated, "Ms. Zhao is seriously injured. My medical skills are not good enough. How about I go to the county town and ask the doctor at the clinic to prescribe medicine?"

Butcher Cao immediately objected: "No, that won't work. It will be too expensive!" His money didn't come from the wind. It was earned by slaughtering pigs one by one and selling the meat piece by piece.

"No matter how valuable it is, can human life be more valuable?" Fan He shouted, "The person is in this condition now. If you can't save him, you will be sued!"

Butcher Cao immediately shrank his neck and stopped talking.

Doctor Zhang was also very happy. He was eager to find an opportunity to go to the county clinic and communicate with the doctors to improve his medical skills.

Fan He glared at Cao the Butcher: "What are you still standing there for? Give me the money!"

Cao the butcher took a bunch of money with a painful look on his face. There were more than 40 coins. He said pitifully, "Doctor Zhang, how much will it cost to cure her injury? This is all I have. Is it enough?"

"Enough," Doctor Zhang said slowly, "It's definitely not enough. It should be at least one or two taels of silver. If we hadn't come so quickly, he might have been hard! Now that you're still alive, just be happy!"

One or two taels?

"Isn't that too much?"

"A lot? Medicines cost money, right? You need to be healed for such an injury, right? You can't work for a few days, right?"

"But, but she bumped into me by herself, I didn't push her!"

Fan He was displeased and shouted, "If you hadn't gone to her house and made a move on her, she would have felt like she had no way out and would have gotten to this point? Who wants to die when they can live? If it were you, would you be willing to die?"

After being scolded, the butcher Cao dared not argue.

Not only did he feel pain in his flesh, but even his teeth began to ache. The one that hurt the most was his damaged eye. It had clearly healed, but now it seemed to be starting to ache again.

He failed to gain anything but ended up losing the rice. It's like this again. Are these two women unlucky for him?

Under Fan He's cold gaze and the pointing and criticizing of the villagers, Cao the Butcher was filled with anger and resentment, but he could only grit his teeth, take out some change and give it directly to Doctor Zhang.

He was unwilling to give up and muttered: "Master Lizheng, I just want to take a concubine. Am I wrong?"

Fan He said righteously: "It's not wrong for you to want to take concubines. You have money, you can take as many as you want, but you can't force them. Ask a matchmaker to tell them. If they are willing, you can hold the wedding; if they are not willing, you can ask the matchmaker to talk about it again. You can't force them, and you can't break into someone's house and touch them! The fine you paid today is not unfair! If the person dies, you will be sentenced to beheading. Your son will not be able to take the imperial examination, understand?"

He glanced at everyone present coldly: "Don't think that spreading gossip is no big deal. Today it's the Zhang family's fault, tomorrow it's the Li family's fault. Gossip can also kill people. If someone really dies, won't your conscience hurt?"

Those who had instigated the commotion, exaggerated the incident, and deliberately made indirect accusations against Zhao Susu no longer dared to speak.

"If anyone spreads this again and I hear it, I will tie you up and send you to the head of the pavilion. Do you understand?"

Meng Yu was very satisfied. With Fan He's warning, these people would think about the consequences if they dared to gossip again.

Doctor Zhang spread out his palm, moved the three small pieces of silver and a small string of square-holed coins, and said to Fan He, "Master Li Zheng, I will go to the county town to find a doctor and ask them to prescribe medicine. I will definitely cure Miss Zhao."

Fan He nodded, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the matter was finally settled.

If Meng Cheng were here, if there was an adult in the family, the way things would be handled today would not be like this.

But the only adult was unconscious with a bloody head and only breathing his last breath, and the only person standing was a child less than four years old.

There are so many eyes in the village watching over this orphan and his widowed mother. If he is unfair, everyone will poke him in the back.

He thought for a moment, then lowered his head and asked the short Douya: "Besides seeing Li Dazhu stealing the cow and Wang Mazi pushing someone into the water, what else did you see?"

The head of the pavilion said that there should be no murder cases, but that means there should be no unresolved cases. It is different if the matter is resolved, and it can also be a meritorious service!

This child runs around everywhere and remembers everything she sees. If I ask her, maybe she can reveal some information about the case, I can also gain face in front of the head of the pavilion.

Meng Yu blinked his eyes. This place is poisonous.

Asking such a big thing to a child like her?

Are they going to put her, the child, on the fire?

She shook her head in confusion, "No, I just saw those things and forgot them as soon as I saw them! If they hadn't said bad things about my mother so loudly that I could hear them, I wouldn't remember them at all!"

Many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief and made up their minds that they would never say bad things about the mother and daughter and stay away from them!

Fan He searched around in his pocket and took out two candies. He smiled like a bad uncle and said, "Think about it carefully. If you can come up with another one, the candy will be yours!"

Meng Yu: “…”

Do you really think she is a three-year-old child? One by one, they offer her candies to coax her.

But this candy was beautifully packaged and smelled good. She had eaten all kinds of candy in her previous life, but she didn't have much impression of it, but this candy was really tempting.

It's normal for her, a child, to be tempted by candy, right?

"Look again, there are so many people here, is there anyone you have seen before or know?" the strange uncle continued to coax.

Some people started to get nervous again. They pretended not to care and looked elsewhere, but their peripheral vision was still fixed on this side.

Meng Yu drooled at the candy and looked around obediently.

The little guy's face had some flesh on it, and his eyes, like black grapes, seemed to be shining. He looked very cute, but the people present did not dare to look directly at him.

At this time, there were only six or seven men in the yard. Some of them wanted to run away, but they knew that any action at this time would be guilty, so they had to hold on.

Meng Yu turned back and continued to drool over the candy, but shook her head: "No!"

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

Fan He was a little disappointed.

How could there be none? Yes, there were few people here, maybe there really wasn't one, so he would ask again when there were more people. He didn't believe that with this little girl around, he couldn't accomplish anything!
