The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

The county magistrate's wife looked at the group of women in front of her who were crying miserably, and said coldly: "Since you are so reluctant to let my son go, then go with him! So that my son won't be lonely all the way! You couldn't hold his heart while he was alive, so go down there and continue to work hard!"

The crying in the hall stopped immediately, and the women looked up at the county magistrate's wife in shock, their faces full of disbelief!

After a moment, he was sure that he had not heard wrong, and he knelt down and cried and begged.

"Madam, please spare me! Madam, please spare me!"

"Madam, I am willing to become a nun, spend the rest of my life in seclusion, copying Buddhist scriptures for you to pray for your soul!"

"Madam, I am willing to become a nun, please spare my life!"

The county magistrate's wife looked at this group of beautiful women and snorted coldly, "Humph! I'm flattering you by letting you be buried with my son! Don't be ungrateful!"

After saying that, he looked at the butler beside him and said sternly: "Butler, didn't you hear me? Send them on their way!"

The housekeeper looked at the lady with a sinister face, then looked at the women kneeling and begging, and asked cautiously: "Madam, how about we wait until the master comes back?"

"What? My words don't count? Or does the housekeeper want to go down and accompany my son in person?" said the county magistrate's wife with a distorted face.

Upon hearing this, the housekeeper said he dared not, sighed, and waved to the servant next to him.

The servants stepped forward and strangled these women to death without hesitation!

They said silently in their hearts: Don't blame us. If we don't take action, if the lady gets angry, we will be the ones to die!

Seeing this, the county magistrate's wife nodded in satisfaction and instructed the housekeeper, "Housekeeper, go and dress them up nicely and prepare a thin coffin!"

The housekeeper hurried down to arrange for people to prepare.

After venting her anger, the county magistrate's wife looked at her son in the coffin, and she was overwhelmed with grief! She felt dizzy and fell to the ground, fainting!

"Madam! Madam! Call a doctor quickly! Find Doctor Zhou from Huichuntang." The nanny quickly supported the madam and shouted urgently.

A little maid hurried out of the house and ran towards Huichun Hall!

The nanny then ordered another maid, "Xiangcao, go to the county government office and find the master! Tell him that the mistress fainted from excessive grief!"

"Yes, I'll go right away!" The maid responded and went downstairs.

Half a minute later, the nanny heard a sound coming from outside the door curtain.

"Is the madam awake?" She looked up and saw her master hurriedly entering the room.

"Madam? Why hasn't the doctor arrived yet?" The county magistrate first held the lady's hand and called out, but when there was no response, he asked the nanny angrily.

"Sir, the palace physician caught a cold a few days ago and hasn't recovered yet. I'm afraid he might pass the disease on to Madam, so I asked Xiangcao to invite Doctor Zhou from Huichun Hall." The nanny replied respectfully.

As soon as the voice fell, Vanilla's voice came from outside the door: "Doctor Zhou, hurry up!"

The nanny hurried out to welcome Doctor Zhou in.

"Greetings, His Excellency the County Magistrate!" Doctor Zhou bowed to the County Magistrate.

"Doctor Zhou, please don't be so polite. My wife is in a coma. Please come and see her right away!" The county magistrate quickly stretched out his hand to stop Doctor Zhou from performing the gesture and motioned for him to treat his wife right away.

The nanny had already placed a silk handkerchief on the lady's wrist. After Manager Zhou felt her pulse, he took out a silver needle and pricked several acupoints on the county magistrate's wife's hand. The wife then let out a sigh of relief and woke up slowly.

The county magistrate's wife woke up and saw her husband looking at her with concern in front of the bed. She grabbed his hand and said excitedly: "Husband, our poor child! He died so tragically! Have you caught the murderer?"

The county magistrate glanced at Doctor Zhou, who stood up and said, "Sir, Madam fainted due to anger and excessive grief. I will write a prescription for you. You can take it for five days!"

Seeing the county magistrate nodded, he bowed and went to the outer room to write a prescription. The nanny came out and quickly prepared paper and pen.

While prescribing medicine, Doctor Zhou listened attentively to the conversations in the room.

The county magistrate could never have imagined that Doctor Zhou had internal strength. Even in the outer room, even if the couple lowered their voices, their conversation was still clearly heard by Doctor Zhou.

"Master, have you caught the thief?"

"No, according to the coroner's analysis, my son died last night. When I got there, there was no trace of the thief. Moreover, the thief was very experienced and didn't leave any trace!"

"Without any clues, did our poor son die in vain?"

"Madam, don't worry. There are clues. Although the three yamen runners who knew about this have died, I infer that they must have kidnapped a girl to send their son to play. I have sent people to check the places they went yesterday to see if there were any kidnapped girls!"

"What's the point of finding that little girl? Master, you don't think that ordinary people can do this, right?"

"Madam, what if the murderer saved the girl? That way we can find a clue! I have ordered people to close the city gates and search every house. If the thief is still in the city, he will not be able to escape."

......

When Shopkeeper Zhou heard this, he was horrified. Thinking about what Lin Xi and the others had done yesterday, it was most likely Lin Xi who did it. It was the county magistrate's son who beat that little girl yesterday!

As long as the county magistrate knew that the three yamen runners had been to Linshan Village, and then captured a few villagers from Linshan Village and interrogated them, he would find out that the little girl Yuanyuan had been kidnapped. Then Lin Xi and the others would be in danger!

Shopkeeper Zhou deliberately slowed down the speed of writing the prescription and thought about countermeasures in his mind. The county magistrate had already ordered the city gates to be closed. How should he tell Miss Lin Xi the news?

When the nanny saw that Shopkeeper Zhou stopped writing and frowned in thought, she thought he was thinking about the prescription and didn't think much about it.

At this moment, the lady's excited voice suddenly came from the inner room: "I just want those little goblins to be buried with my son. If any of them are useful, my son will not go out and make trouble! What, the master is distressed! Don't think I don't know that those little goblins have no choice but to get close to you. If they can't seduce my son, they will come to me!"

"Ma'am, what are you thinking? You can see that I have dealt with them. I have been targeted by my mortal enemy recently, and I am afraid that he will catch me!"

"Humph! You only care about your career! My poor son!"

"Madam, madam, what's wrong with you? Doctor Zhou! Doctor Zhou!"

Hearing the shout, Doctor Zhou hurried inside and saw that the county magistrate's wife had fainted again!

Doctor Zhou cheered in his heart. He was worried that he had no reason to go out of the city to deliver the message to Lin Xi!

He remained calm and quickly used acupuncture to wake up the county magistrate's wife! He bowed to the county magistrate and said, "Sir, the wife is in great sorrow and pain. She has fainted twice in a row. She must be taken care of, otherwise it may affect her lifespan!"
