Grandma said that cabbage cannot be sold at a very high price, and usually two cabbages can be sold for one copper coin.

So much cabbage means a lot of copper coins.

Woo woo woo, her pennies flew away.

Sang Ye was worried that the medicine in the field would affect her, so he took her to the shade of a tree not far away.

"Don't be sad, baby. If that's the case, let's make them pay for it."

Hearing about the compensation, Mu Baobao was still in a bad mood, "But those were the cabbages that my grandparents spent a lot of effort to grow."

"It was about to be harvested, but it was destroyed by someone."

"That's too bad."

Sang Ye could understand this feeling, "Okay, okay, I won't be angry anymore. I'm not beautiful when I'm angry."

Mu Baobao looked at him with a pout.

Sang Ye quickly stroked the fur and said, "Big brother said the wrong thing. Our baby has always been very beautiful and pretty."

Mu Baobao's mood improved a little. "Big brother, why do some people hate to see others have a good life?"

"What does other people's lives have to do with me?"

Sang Ye explained, "Jealousy."

"For some people, they cannot tolerate people of similar status living better than them."

"If someone's status is higher than theirs, they can only say a few sour words at best, but they dare not really do anything."

But this is not absolute.

Mu Baobao said, "I understand." "I will urge my brothers to study hard and strive to become officials soon."

"That way, the neighbors wouldn't dare do anything to my family."

Sang Ye touched her head, smiled but said nothing, that was not the case.

It’s better for him not to tell the baby about this for the time being.

The doctor came quickly.

After the doctor's examination, he found that the land had been drugged with a very poisonous drug.

If someone with a wound on their hand touches these cabbages, the wound will rot in a short time, and in severe cases, amputation may be required.

"Doctor, please help my grandma, she just touched the cabbage." Mu Baobao said anxiously.

After the doctor took Zhu's pulse, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone, this aunt is not poisoned."

"but……"

After a pause, he added, "I suggest you all move to another place."

"This poison has penetrated deep into the ground. It won't be long before the ground in this house is affected and it will spread to other places."

Sang Ye's brows darkened. He didn't expect it to be so serious.

"Is this going to harm everyone in the Mu family?"

The Zhu family members gasped, their hearts pounding. This... They hadn't offended anyone since they came here, so who was so vicious to want to take their lives?

The doctor said, "In the long run, that's the case."

"Over time, the wells and other crops in this house will be affected."

"If someone eats it, they will be poisoned and slowly die from festering."

Zhu was so angry that she wanted to curse, but she was worried about the doctor being here. "I don't know which beast is so cruel and crazy."

Fortunately, Mr. Sang was here this time, otherwise something big would have happened at home.

Mu Laodi and his companions also had grim faces and were filled with fear. This was simply too terrifying.

Mu Baobao stamped his feet angrily, "Grandma, we have to catch this bad guy and not let him harm our family again."

"Mom, let's move." Qian said with a trembling heart, "The land here has become like this. We can't live here anymore."

"It's a pity that we only bought such a nice house not long ago."

No matter how much Zhu cared about the money, she would not be confused about such a thing. "Let's go, pack up quickly and move to the inn today."

“Those vegetables in the field…”

She turned to look at the doctor and asked, "Doctor, can I still have the vegetables from my garden?"

The doctor suggested, "It's best not to do it, just in case."

Zhu's expression was extremely grim, and she wished she could chop the man into pieces. "Shovel away everything in the field, don't leave any hidden dangers."

"Let's go, let's pack up quickly."

She took her three daughters-in-law and several servants and began to pack up the house.

"Old man, the chief constable is here." At this time, a servant came in with the chief constable and two constables.

After the two sides exchanged greetings.

Sang Ye explained the situation in detail and stated the harm of the poison: "We don't know who did it yet."

"But I suspect it was done by a neighbor who was jealous of the Mu family."

The chief constables were all confused after hearing this. Not only did the murderer poison people, but he also used such a vicious poison. Was he planning to poison everyone in the area to death?

"Please rest assured, Young Master Sang, we will get to the bottom of this matter as soon as possible." The captain bowed.

"Also, we'd like to ask, if the Mu family can make enemies with others while living here for a while?"

At Sang Ye's suggestion, Father Mu shook his head and said, "No."

"Since we moved here, we've basically not interacted with our neighbors. We spend most of our time either at home or out."

The captain hummed in understanding, "So, how are your relationships with your neighbors?"

Mu Lao said, "It's neither good nor bad."

"The neighbors tried to establish a relationship with us many times, but were rejected by my family. As a result, they spread some unpleasant rumors."

"My family doesn't mind it too much."

After the captain of the police learned more about the situation, he left the Mu family with a few detectives and began to investigate the neighbors.

As soon as they started checking, they saw a middle-aged man acting suspiciously not far away, carrying a bag and seemingly about to go out.

"Stop!" the captain shouted. "Who are you from? What are you doing there?"

The middle-aged man was so frightened when he saw the constable that he almost fell to the ground.

Then he rolled and crawled forward, looking as if he was being chased by an evil ghost.

Seeing this, the constable pointed two constables to chase after him, "We must catch this guy for me. There is definitely something fishy about this guy."

The two constables immediately chased after him.

The captain took the remaining constable and found a nearby family to inquire about the situation of the escaped middle-aged man.

"That man is the son of the Dong family." The woman curled her lips, her words full of disgust.

"This guy has five older sisters and he's the only son. He's been spoiled by his parents since he was little, and he's done a lot of bad things in our area."

"He's also incredibly arrogant and can't stand anyone being better than him. Unfortunately, his parents spoil him, and we've had a lot of conflicts. Almost no one likes this family."

The captain grasped the key point, "What is the relationship between the Dong family and the Mu family?"

The woman said, "The relationship is not good."

"It was unilateral on the part of the Dong family. The Mu family ignored the Dong family."

"The Dong family is jealous of the Mu family, a peasant family that has so many dignitaries helping it, and they have been slandering the Mu family openly and covertly."

"Especially that bastard from the Dong family, who even arrogantly said that sooner or later he would take over everything from the Mu family."
