Chapter 145 Lin He'er Gossips About the Workshop

Meanwhile, on Lin He'er's side, after Little Grape was given a second bowl of medicine, her fever finally subsided.

The doctor gave her several packets of medicine and came into the inner room personally to tell Lin He'er how to administer the medicine to the child. His attitude had completely changed from when she first came in!

Okay, thank you, doctor!

Where should I pay for the medicine?

Lin He'er took the medicine, prepared to pay the bill, and then carried Little Grape home.

Madam, forget about the medicine money. I've already asked for your method, so consider it payment for the medicine.

The doctor brought up the matter again, and Lin He'er's lips twitched involuntarily upon hearing this.

This is because I'm afraid I'll forget when I get back!

Okay, thank you very much!

Don't worry, doctor, I live in Songnan Lane! After I take the child home, I will write down the prescription carefully and have someone bring it to you.

Sure, sure!

The doctor smiled and saw Lin He'er off, not worried that she might deny everything once she left!

The cost of medicine is indeed a burden for ordinary people, but for me, it's nothing. Being able to exchange a few herbs for new medical skills is simply too worthwhile!

Lin He'er settled Xiao Putao into the carriage, then took Shanzi and drove the carriage home together!

After the three arrived home and settled everyone in, Lin He'er then instructed Granny Li to go to the shop and bring the children from there home.

Since I've decided to take them in, I'll let them stay at my house for the time being.

Fortunately, our house is big enough now, and with so many kids, a few can sleep in each room, which is sufficient.

When Granny Li brought the children back, Lin He'er assigned her more work.

Granny, could you please make some clothes for each of them these next few days? The weather is cold now, and the children are still wearing only thin clothes. We don't want them to get cold.

Don't worry, madam, I'll finish the clothes in the next few days.

When Li Mama saw that the lady had brought back so many little beggars, she didn't ask any questions. She just did what the lady instructed her to do.

After settling the children in, Lin He'er realized that Meng Xing hadn't returned yet.

So much time has passed, could it be that the people from the county government haven't arrived yet?

I think I should go out and take a look myself.

Just as Lin He'er was about to go out, she saw Meng Xing return from outside, followed by Brother Luan!

Meng Xing, it took quite a while to get things done.

"Madam, you don't know, those people are not ordinary beggars," Meng Xing said to Lin He'er with a speechless expression.

They are wanted criminals who committed crimes in the neighboring county!

Ah!

Lin He'er didn't expect that things were not so simple.

Tell me in detail what exactly happened. Upon hearing that the beggar had become a wanted criminal, Lin He'er's gossip-loving nature immediately kicked in!

I'm not entirely sure either; I just overheard the constables mention it.

Meng Xing summarized the language and explained it to Lin He'er;

A few months ago, those beggars from the local temple robbed a wealthy family in the neighboring county and killed the rich man and his coachman on the spot.

After taking the money, the group ran away. Because the crime scene was remote, they thought no one would see them, so they didn't wear masks when they committed the crime.

To everyone's surprise, the coachman was not dead. He was rescued by a passerby and then went to the county government to report the case.

That's why these people became wanted criminals!

Later, they seemed to realize that the county government was arresting them, so they came to our area and disguised themselves as beggars every day to avoid being captured by the officials!

Who knew we'd run into them! Meng Xing remarked, realizing his family's luck was just... well, let's just say it was incredible.

After hearing what Meng Xing said, Lin He'er also felt that her family had hit the jackpot!

Fortunately, those desperate criminals ran into Meng Xing, who was a good fighter. If they had gone to the local temple by themselves today, they might not have made it back!

Thinking of this, Lin He'er couldn't help but feel a little fortunate!

Okay, I understand. You can go ahead and get back to work!

Lin He'er dismissed Meng Xing and was about to return to the backyard when she saw that Luan Ge was still with her!

Look at me, I almost forgot to tell you, Little Grape's fever has gone down and she's resting in bed now. Your other younger brothers and sisters are all in the backyard.

Thank you, Madam. Brother Luan is relieved to hear that Little Grape is alright.

The man followed Lin He'er back to the backyard to visit Little Grape.

Lin He'er had been busy for so long and hadn't eaten yet. It was already late afternoon, so she asked Granny Li to make her some simple food.

This will also allow these children to have a full meal.

After finishing his meal, he had just put down his chopsticks when he saw Meng Xing come to the backyard again.

Madam, a broker from the brokerage firm has come to the shop. He says that he has made progress on the matter you instructed him to handle.

I heard you needed it urgently. The person here hasn't left yet; they're waiting for you in the shop!

Oh, I guess Zhang Ya has already found a place. I'll head over now.

Lin He'er was surprised that Zhang Yaren was so fast; he had already found the land, and the timing was perfect.

After waiting for a while at Zhang's shop, Madam Wen arrived.

Greetings, Madam. I have done my duty and have found a place for you!

Thank you, Zhang Yaren, your speed in getting things done is absolutely top-notch!

As Lin He'er spoke, she gave Zhang Yaren a thumbs up!

Haha, you flatter me, Madam. If you have time, shall we go and look at the place?

Okay, that's over!

The location is a bit far; after all, even the smallest workshop wouldn't be located in the center of the county government.

If Zhang Yaren leads the way and we need a carriage, my carriage happens to be empty.

That would be even better, thank you for your understanding, Madam!

Lin He'er called Meng Xing to drive the carriage, Zhang Yaren gave them the location, and the group drove the carriage there.

When they arrived at the location, Lin He'er calculated in her mind that it took about ten minutes, and it wasn't far from her shop.

The place the carriage had arrived at was one that I had never been before, as it was a cluster of small workshops in the county town.

Madam, it's just a few steps inside.

Zhang Yaren led two men directly to the workshop entrance.

Madam, this is the place! Let's go in!

Lin He'er followed the people into the workshop.

Madam, the workshop is not large; in terms of living space, it is at most equivalent to a three-courtyard house.

The front yard where we are standing now, apart from this gatehouse, is all open space.

This workshop used to be a cloth dyeing business, so the front yard was large and mostly used for drying cloth.

After Zhang Yaren explained, Lin He'er understood why she saw tall wooden stakes all around the courtyard when she entered; it turned out that ropes had been laid out for drying cloth.

After we've looked at the front yard, let's go take a look at the back yard.

As they talked, they went to the backyard.

In the backyard, a young man was tidying up his things.

He didn't even look up when he saw someone coming to the backyard; he just focused on what he was doing.

Zhang Yaren, who is this?

Oh, this is the original owner of the shop; this workshop belonged to him.

Zhang Yaren waved to Lin He'er, and after keeping the two of them a safe distance from the young man, he whispered to Lin He'er;

Madam, the house we're looking at today is this child's house. He's decided to sell it and is just packing up the last few things.

Oh, you don't know, I know this child too. The reason I was able to find you a workshop so quickly was because the child contacted me, and it just so happened that we ran into you!

Zhang Yaren, is there anything wrong with the workshop?

Seeing Zhang Ya acting mysteriously, Lin He'er, adhering to the principle of being cautious, quickly asked him a question!

Madam, you misunderstand. The workshop is fine, but I don't want to talk about it in front of the child. I thought he wasn't here today, so I brought you along. If I say too much, I'm afraid he'll be upset.

Hmm? There's a story behind this?

Lin He'er seemed to have caught a whiff of gossip, and stared wide-eyed at Zhang Yaren, asking him;

Can you tell me what's wrong?

Uh……

Zhang Yaren hadn't expected that Madam Wen quite enjoyed listening to gossip, so he could only whisper to her.
