A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

"What do you want to do?" Shen Nian asked after being silent for a long time.

"Of course, we should give someone a taste of his own medicine." Xia Tian said sinisterly.

"Do you remember what that little maid looks like?" Shen Nian thought for a moment, "I'll send someone to find her later."

"Remember, I think we should just find her out and keep an eye on her secretly. That little maid used to work under Mrs. Li, the gardener, and was only transferred here to serve in the past few days."

Xia Tian has been following Liu around these days and has basically recognized most of the people in the mansion. Although she doesn't know some of their names, she will never forget anyone she has seen before.

"It's impossible for a little maid to harm me for no reason. She must have been instructed by someone." Xia Tian analyzed and was suddenly shocked, "Oh no, maybe something has happened to this little maid." Thinking of this, he suddenly looked up at Shen Nian. Shen Nian also thought of this, and his face looked even uglier.

"Don't worry, I'll draw a portrait and have someone look for it first. What if it's too late today and Liu hasn't had time to make a move yet?"

Xia Tian calmed himself down, took the paper on the table, picked up a piece of charcoal from next to the brazier on the ground, shaved it slightly with a dagger, and began to draw on the paper.

In just a few minutes, a simple portrait sketch was completed. Xia Tian picked it up, blew off the charcoal powder on it, and handed it to Shen Nian.

Shen Nian took it, took a look at it, and handed it directly to Mu Chen, "Go find the person first, don't alert the enemy. If you find the person, find a place to control him first."

"Yes." Mu Chen took the portrait, took a look at it, put it in his arms, and went out quickly.

"How about I take you out to see a doctor tomorrow." Shen Nian was still worried. Although Xia Tian told him that she had not eaten anything from there, he still felt it would be more reassuring to check.

"Not tomorrow. Tomorrow is Shen Ning's wedding day, and Liu asked me to go there early in the morning."

Seeing Shen Nian's bad face, Xia Tian comforted her, "It's okay, I really didn't eat anything of hers. Besides, she can't possibly give you this kind of medicine one after another. Maybe now she thinks she has succeeded, so she won't use such a sinister trick again in the future."

Shen Nian knew that Xia Tian was trying to comfort him, but it was not his character to just let the matter go.

Then he remembered what Xia Tian had said just now, "Treat others in their own way," and asked, "How do you mean by counterattack?"

"Hehe, you dare to give me the sterilization drug? Then I will give it back. Anyway, I still have this tea with the sterilization drug."

Xia Tian snorted, "Brother Shen, don't worry about it. I'm at Liu's place every day now. There are plenty of opportunities. You just need to find that little maid and give her a hard time when the time is right."

"No, it's too risky. What if you get discovered..." Shen Nian was worried and didn't want Xia Tian to take the risk.

"No, believe me." Xia Tian said firmly, "I will definitely not let anyone notice. If I can't find an opportunity, I won't do it. Okay?"

"Okay, don't act rashly." Shen Nian continued to remind.

"Well, don't worry." Xia Tian smiled and shook his hand.

Shen Nian also held it gently with his hand, and felt a little more at ease.

Today, Muchen came to him and said that Xia Tian suspected that there were drugs in the tea, and asked him to take it to the doctor for examination first. His heart began to hang in the air.

He thought of all kinds of possibilities, but he never expected that Liu would actually give Xia Tian a sterilizing drug. He felt his hands and feet cold at that time.

Later, when he came to his senses, he felt a little relieved. He was relieved that Xia Tian was alert enough and did not fall into the trap. However, this feeling of being plotted against at any time was too uncomfortable. He now wished he could tear Liu into pieces.

It seems that he still needs to speed up the investigation and get rid of the cancer of the Liu family as soon as possible.

The two of them were thinking about how to deal with Liu.

As for Liu, after receiving the news from Aunt Qi that "the matter was done" in the afternoon, the depression that had been pent up in her heart for a while was swept away, and she was in a good mood to joke with Shen Lan.

"Mom, is there any good news? You seem to be in a good mood." Shen Lan asked curiously.

Her mother hadn't laughed so happily since her fourth brother was injured and seriously ill. Even when they tried to cheer her up, she just smiled perfunctorily and never showed happiness from the bottom of her heart like today.

"Well, there is good news. Mother has found a marriage for you. When Shen Ning gets married tomorrow, I will ask someone to sound out the situation." When Liu heard Shen Lan asking her, she could only talk about her marriage.

When Shen Lan heard that Liu was happy for her marriage, she looked shy but felt sweet in her heart. She hugged Liu's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom~"

"Okay, I won't say anymore. I'll tell you when it's done." Liu knew Shen Lan was shy, so she stopped talking about it. "Where did your fourth brother go? I haven't seen him all day."

"It seems like he went out. I don't know if he's back?" Shen Lan replied indifferently.

"This child is running around everywhere before he's fully recovered." Liu complained casually.

"Mom, let's not talk about my brother anymore. My second sister is getting married tomorrow. Please give me that set of ruby jewelry to wear!" Shen Lan shook Liu's arm and acted coquettishly.

"Okay, I'll put it on you tomorrow. Then put on the pomegranate skirt that your mother made for you last time. Our Lan'er will definitely look the most beautiful." Liu scratched Shen Lan's nose lovingly.

There was laughter and joy in the room, but things were not going well for Muchen.

When he found the maid's residence, the maid was not there.

He looked around again but couldn't find anyone. He thought that something bad had happened to him, so he turned back unwillingly and prepared to check at the nearest corner gate of the garden.

It was also his luck that when he turned near the corner gate, he saw two people carrying a sack and trying to go out of the corner gate. The person waiting at the corner gate to open the door was Mrs. Li, the gardener.

Mu Chen did not alert the enemy and followed quietly.

The two men went out of the corner gate. There was a carriage parked outside the corner gate. The two men worked together to lift the sack onto the carriage, then got on and drove away.

The carriage was not moving fast, and Muchen was following closely behind.

The city gate was not closed yet. The carriage only sped up after it left the city. Mu Chen also used his lightness skills to continue following behind.

The carriage traveled for about half an hour before arriving at a mass grave. The two men took out the sacks and carried them directly over to throw them into the mass grave. One of them wanted to open the sacks to take a look, but was stopped by the other.

"I say throw it here and leave quickly. This place is too gloomy and it's late at night. If it weren't for the silver that Mrs. Li gave me, I would have thrown it away long ago."

"But what if he's not dead? It will be hard to explain when we go back." The other person was worried and wanted to confirm it one last time.

"Oh, she was dead at that time. I checked it myself. Don't worry, even if she wasn't dead, she would have frozen to death if left here. Maybe some wild beast would come here at night!" The person who said this became impatient and urged the other person to leave quickly.

It's late at night and this place is very cautious.

When the other person heard this, he thought so too. Even if a half-dead person was thrown here, he would probably not survive. Moreover, the sack had not been moved for such a long time. It seemed that he was worrying too much.

They didn't insist any longer, and the two of them left the cemetery at a very fast speed.

Muchen hid in the dark and watched the two men drive away in the carriage before slowly coming out and walking to the cemetery to check.
