"Is there anything going on if Miss Ye is taken away like this? The county magistrate looks very angry. Will he punish her?"

"What are you worried about? It's not like we didn't tell her that the magistrate was here, but she insisted on leaving the magistrate there. Can the magistrate not be angry? It's all her fault."

"Yes, and the county magistrate took the initiative to go to her home. What an honorable thing, but she refused. Isn't this a blatant slap in the county magistrate's face? If not her, who will be arrested?"

"I think so too. She is so arrogant that even the county magistrate doesn't take her seriously. Will she annoy the magistrate again and harm us?"

As soon as these words came out, the other villagers became even more frightened: "I said that Ye Qingran is not a good person. She just wants to use us to make money. After making enough, she will not care about us. Once she leaves, our original business will be destroyed." If we can’t do it, and we can’t do our current business, why don’t we starve to death?”

"Don't say it yet, it seems like this is really the case!"

"That's all for later. Now we should be worried about whether we can still get money for the work we are doing! If she is gone forever, where can we reason?"

"Yes, yes, let's go to her house now to ask for money. If it's too late, they might run away!"

After saying that, a group of them went straight back to the village and started knocking on the door of the Ye family's residence, completely forgetting to send a message to Ye Qingran.

When Ms. Jiang heard the noise, she immediately rushed over, opened the door, and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"

"We're here to get paid!"

Hearing this, Ms. Jiang became even more confused: "Is this the day you pay your wages? Ran'er is still in the shop and hasn't come back. If you want to find her, go to the shop."

"She was taken away by the county magistrate. It's not certain whether she can come back. What should I do with her?"

"what?!"

Mrs. Jiang was startled, "What did she commit? Why did the county magistrate suddenly arrest her?"

The villager didn't want to tell her this, so he directly asked for money: "It's all her own fault. She offended the county magistrate, and it has nothing to do with us. We only need our labor money, so hurry up and get the money!"

Ye Guodong walked out of the house, heard this and asked: "You have to hand over the goods when you come to ask for wages, right? Are you just asking for money with nothing?"

After he finished speaking, the villagers reacted and went back to get the goods.

"Here, the goods you want are all here, as well as my man's money for running errands. Please pay them together!"

Ye Guodong calmed down and continued: "It's not yet the day to settle wages. If you settle the wages in advance, does that mean you won't do any work in the future?"

But the villagers did not accept this trick and asked for money on their own: "Whether we do it or not is a matter for the future. Now that Ye Qingran is gone, no one knows whether she will come back or when she will come back. Of course we have to prepare for it." For your own sake, get the money first.”

They stretched out their hands directly in front of him, "What if she doesn't come back and dies in the county government office, who should we ask for money from?"

"How can you curse Ran'er like this? She treats you well. She helped you so much in the past, giving you food, clothing, and work. Now that she has been taken away, forget it if you don't help find a solution. Adding insult to injury, how can such a thing happen in the world?"

Mrs. Jiang said angrily, almost swearing.

But the villagers didn't care at all: "She was taken away because she offended the county magistrate. It's not like we didn't remind her that she had to do that. She asked for it. Does it have anything to do with us?" Why do you want us to pay for her mistakes?"

Ye Guodong was silent, thinking about a solution in his heart.

After all, those silver coins were all in Ye Qingran's place. Although Ye Qingran usually gave them a lot of silver coins for living, they couldn't handle such a large amount of wages at the same time.

But the villagers' attitude was very firm and they would not leave until they saw the money.

At the county government office, Ye Qingran was suppressed by the guards as he moved forward. When he arrived at the county government office, it was almost evening.

The county magistrate didn't embarrass her too much. He really just asked her to sit down and drink a cup of tea, and then they had a serious chat about the development of Lianhua Village, and the conversation was quite harmonious.

When the conversation was over, Ye Qingran felt that the county magistrate was actually quite good, so he found an opportunity to talk to him alone: ​​"My lord, the county magistrate, there is something I want to remind you. I know some medical skills, and it depends on your There should be no child in the face, the problem is…your body.”

This was said in a subtle way, but how could the county magistrate not understand it?As if the secrets he had accumulated in his heart had been discovered, he suddenly said angrily: "What are you talking about? How can I have a problem? I don't have children just because my wife is in poor health. How can it be that I have no children?" Question! Don’t talk nonsense!”

Seeing the way he jumped, Ye Qingran felt helpless.

She just told the truth, and she told him in private, but he didn't want to accept it.

"Sir, it doesn't matter even if it's a little incomplete, but you really can't blame your wife..."

Before she could finish her words, the county magistrate shouted loudly: "Come here! This banshee has deceived the public with her words. Now drag her away and beat her to death with sticks!"

Ye Qingran was shocked. He didn't expect that the county magistrate, who was fine just now, suddenly wanted to beat her to death, and his attitude changed too quickly.

But she didn't panic and said bluntly: "Folk women know medical skills and can help adults cure stubborn diseases."

After hearing this, the county magistrate waved his hand to the guard to stop, frowned and asked, "Is this true?"

"Of course I can take it seriously. Folk girls have cured hysteria in other places. Not to mention miraculous medical methods, there is definitely no problem in diagnosing and treating some diseases, not to mention that the adult's chronic illness is not serious."

The county magistrate may not believe what he said before, but he was moved by the statement that his illness was not serious.

He knew that he had some problems in that area, and he went to see a doctor specifically, but nothing worked. As a result, he never had a child of his own. This has been his heartache for so many years.

As a man, it is really a shame and a shame to not be good at this. That's why he was so angry when Ye Qingran found out. But now that there is an opportunity to be cured, how can he let it go?

"You hand over the prescription and I will let you go."

Ye Qingran shook his head: "No, this is my secret recipe. I can't give it to anyone. What's more, this disease can't be cured by just taking medicine. It also needs acupuncture to dredge the veins."

She spoke very seriously and did not appear to be lying at all. The county magistrate then half-convinced someone to let her go.

But he was still a little worried. He had just said that he would beat her to death. If she tampered with her during the diagnosis and treatment, wouldn't he be dead?

Ye Qingran guessed what he was thinking and said, "Just find a doctor to look at my diagnosis and treatment."
