Yu Jiahe brushed across Ruier's wide-open eyes, and those eyes closed as if comforted.

"Rong'er, mother really knows she is wrong, can you please wake up soon?"

No matter how much the old lady cried and screamed, those eyes would never open again.

"What's going on?" The county magistrate came over hurriedly, without having time to change out of his official uniform. As soon as he entered the room, he saw her mother holding a corpse and crying sadly.

Meng Jinhua briefly explained the matter to him.

He stared at Rui'er's body in surprise, then helped the old lady up.

"Mom, you are tired. Go back and rest. I am here."

Then he signaled to Granny Sun to help the man away.

The old lady was reluctant to leave, and the county magistrate said, "Mother, you are tired."

The tone is irresistible.

The old lady was supported by Granny Sun and walked away.

The county magistrate ordered others to deal with Rui'er's body and walked out of the room with Yu Jiahe.

"Thank you for your help today." said the county magistrate.

Yu Jiahe took out the doctor-seeking list and said, "This is what I should do. I think the old lady's illness should have been cured and will not relapse."

"Okay, I'll have the butler take you to claim the reward later. What happened in your house?"

"Don't worry, County Magistrate. I am only responsible for curing illnesses and saving lives. I don't know anything else."

This little girl is quite smart. The county magistrate nodded, thinking that she would not dare to go out and say anything. She is just a commoner, how could she offend an official? Even though he is just a small county magistrate, not everyone can become a county magistrate in the vicinity of the capital.

When Yu Jiahe walked out of the gate of the county magistrate's mansion, she did not expect that the three doctors who had looked down on her were waiting at the door.

"Little girl, may I have a word with you?" Their attitude was much better than before, and they spoke politely.

"If you have something to say, just say it here. I'm in a hurry to go home." Yu Jiahe said.

"I wonder how the little girl cured the old lady's illness?"

"It's very simple. The old lady just has some heart problems. Once the heart knot is untied, the disease will naturally be cured."

"I wonder what the old lady's problem is?"

Yu Jiahe smiled and said, "Everyone has her own way of curing illness. I think since you have cured the old lady's illness, I won't ask any more questions."

The three doctors all looked unhappy. The oldest one said, "Young man, don't be too arrogant just because you have some talent. You may fall flat on your face in the future."

"Do you mean that you have nothing to show for yourself now that you are old?" Yu Jiahe asked back.

"A yellow-haired girl who is still wet behind the ears."

"You're a stinky guy who takes advantage of his age."

"You..." The doctor pointed at Yu Jiahe.

"I'm in a hurry, please make way." Yu Jiahe hasn't been home for several days and doesn't know if her family misses her.

Three doctors were left, looking at each other.

The three of them just wanted to know how she cured the disease. Even though their words were no longer aggressive, their tone was inevitably condescending. It was clearly a question, but it made it seem as if she owed them an answer. Since they looked down on her, she would not force them.

With a huge sum of five hundred taels in his pocket, Yu Jiahe saw that everyone was on guard, so he decided to hurry home and give the money to his mother.

We rented a horse carriage and headed back to the village.

As soon as she got home, Tao Xing showed her non-stop concern for her and even cooked a very sumptuous meal for her.

After dinner, Yu Jiahe gave the money to Tao Xing.

Holding the silver note of five hundred taels in her hand, Tao Xing was very excited. Her son had just brought back one thousand taels two days ago, and half a month later her daughter brought back another five hundred taels. Their family was going to become rich.

"Mom, I want to discuss something with you."

"What's the matter?"

"I want to invite a teacher back."

"Ah?" Tao Xing was very surprised, but after thinking about it, she felt it made sense. "Your brother should indeed go to school. In the past, our family had no money, which delayed his education. Now that money is available, the money for school is enough. But why don't you send your brother to school, but hire a teacher instead?"

Although she is rich now, she used to live a poor life. Tao Xing would save as much money as possible.

"Not only my brother, you and daddy also need to study. I don't say how much knowledge you need to have, but you must be able to read."

"Your father and I don't need to do that. We are too old to learn it."

"Mom, it's okay. Our goal is not that difficult. We just want you to recognize what words look like and be able to read them when you see them in the future. You can give birth to such a smart brother, so you must be very smart too."

Tao Xing was coaxed into agreeing.

Eleven has been living in Yu Jiaye's room. The scars on his face have healed a lot, and only a faint pink remains. You can't see them unless you look carefully. If he keeps applying medicine, the scars will become lighter and lighter.

"I want to go out for a walk." Eleven had been feeling depressed for a long time. He had been staying in the room and could no longer bear it.

Yu Jiahe also knew that locking a person in a room for a long time would make them suffocated, so she agreed.

He has been recuperating for a long time, and no one in the village has heard that any outsiders have come here. If this is the case, it means that this place is still safe.

But to be on the safe side, she still wanted to confirm it.

Li Juxiang was sitting at the doorstep of her house embroidering shoe pads, and from time to time she would look up to see if anyone was walking by with something in their hands.

"Aunt." Yu Jiahe called her.

"Xiao He, what do you want to talk to your aunt about?"

Yu Jiahe nodded, "There is indeed a small favor that I need your help with."

Li Juxiang rolled her eyes and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, I'm very busy every day and I'm afraid I don't have any free time."

Yu Jiahe also took Li Juxiang's pulse some time ago. She was in good health except that her menstrual period was a little irregular. However, they were very sensitive about this disease and insisted that they were not sick.

"Didn't Auntie tell you that you have lower abdominal pain during your period? I have a very simple way to treat it."

"You say." Li Juxiang became interested.

"That depends on whether Auntie is willing to help me."

As expected, it was still Yu Jiahe, who never let others take advantage of her. "What do you mean by help?"

"Please help me keep an eye out for any strangers who have come to the village recently."

Li Juxiang thought it was a big deal. "This is a simple matter. Leave it to me. Even if it's a stranger in the village, I will dig out all his secrets for you."

Yu Jiahe took out the motherwort she had picked from her backpack.

"Aunt, remember this grass. Dry it and soak it in water to drink. If you drink it for a period of time, you won't feel so much pain during your period."

Li Juxiang held the motherwort in her hand. This small thing could really cure abdominal pain. She had seen quite a few of them in the mountains. Anyway, she could just pick them for free. Whether they worked or not would be known after she drank them.

Yu Jiahe chose her for a reason. She often sat at the door of her house and liked to gossip with others. She could tell anything that happened in anyone's house from him.
