Ling Yiran was very fast. Because of the evidence given by Su Li, the county magistrate was immediately sent to jail.

As Zhou Yu worked, she told Su Li the gossip she had heard.

“I heard that Jia Village’s scholar replaced someone else’s test paper and even killed his fiancée…”

“He’s been arrested now. I heard it won’t be long before he’s beheaded. If the old man hadn’t forbidden me, I’d have gone to see the excitement.”

Su Li shook her head when she heard the gossip Zhou Yu had heard. Indeed, she had brought this upon herself. It was a sin for one to live after committing such evil.

This time, the county magistrate was pulled down so quickly. Ling Yiran’s identity should not be simple. After all, this was not a small matter. Without a certain power, he could not do it.

To express her gratitude, Su Li specially made a pot of chicken soup for Ling Yiran.

He Yufeng smelled the fragrance of the chicken soup and felt a little sour. He Qingyao and He Qingmu approached him and said, “Father, are you jealous? Is it because Mother made chicken soup for someone else?”

He Yufeng looked at them and asked, “No, who told you?”

These words did not sound like something two children could say.

He Qingyao and He Qingmu sold Yao Jun out. “Uncle Yao said so. He just said that you were jealous because mother made chicken soup for someone else.

You must want to kill that person.”

He Yufeng’s face darkened and he said to them, “Don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s talking nonsense.”

It seemed that Yao Jun was really too free. He still had the time to gossip. It seemed that he had to increase his workload.

Not far away, Yao Jun couldn’t help but shiver. He had only casually said a few words just now, but who knew that the two little fellows had heard him?

If they heard it, they heard it. They even learned how to tell that to He Yufeng! They were really annoying!

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed, and Ling Yiran’s injuries had recovered quite a bit. Although he was reluctant to part with these peaceful days, he still had more important things to do, so he said goodbye to Su Li.

“We’ll be leaving soon! ” Ling Yiran said.

“So soon? You haven’t fully recovered from your injuries. It’s best for you to continue recuperating.”

Su Li was a little surprised to hear that. She thought that they could stay for another two days, but she did not expect them to leave so soon. With his current injuries, it would be better if he could continue recuperating for two more days.

Ling Yiran said, “I’m sorry to disturb you for so long. I’m going home to take care of myself, and I have a lot of things to deal with.”

He had been hiding in peace for so many days. It was time to go back and let those people have a taste of chaos.

Su Li nodded and instructed, “Then remember to get Dr. Cheng to disinfect your wound every day. It won’t be a small matter if your wound gets inflamed.”

Although Ling Yiran’s injuries had not completely recovered, as long as he was properly taken care of, there would not be any problems.

Hearing Su Li’s advice, Ling Yiran felt a little warm in his heart. He said, “Thank you. I’ll remember your kindness. If you need my help in the future, just let me know.”

Su Li waved her hand and said, ‘You helped me once before, so we are even.”

Ling Yiran smiled. “That’s different!” At this moment, two guards came in. “Master, you can leave now.”

Su Li sent them to the village entrance.

Cheng Yu was still thinking about the anesthetic. He said, “Ms. Su, when is it convenient for you to teach us about the anesthetic?”

Su Li shook her head and said, “I’ve changed my mind. I won’t teach you anymore.”

“What?” Cheng Yu raised his voice.

Didn’t they agree on it previously? Why did she suddenly change her mind?

Su Li said, “Who asked you to drag it out? I’m going back on my word now. I can sell you the anesthetic, but I won’t teach it to you.”

After these few things, she understood a lot of things. Some things still had to be held in her hands. Otherwise, she might become meat on the chopping board and still be slaughtered.

Moreover, even if she taught Cheng Yu the anesthetic, they might not follow what she wanted. The agreement was only effective on gentlemen, but it was worthless to shameless people.

As long as she set the price of the anesthetic lower and asked Cheng Yu and the others not to sell it to the patient at a high price, the problem should not be too big.

Hearing Su Li’s words, Ling Yiran turned to Cheng Yu and said, “Then I’ll leave the anesthetic to you in the future.”

Ling Yiran’s words meant that he agreed with Su Li.

This matter was also his fault. He had been dragging it out and had not made a decision, which was why the current situation was like this.

Ling Yiran stood in front of the carriage and said to Su Li, “Madam Su, I was blinded by the fog in the past. Please don’t take offense.”

Su Li said nonchalantly, “Boss Ling, what are you talking about? Anyone would be vigilant. After all, who would have thought that a weak village woman would know medicine?”

Ling Yiran smiled and handed a box to Su Li. “This is a small gift I prepared for you. I hope you don’t mind.”

Su Li did not decline and took it with a smile. “Thank you for spending so much.”

With the weight of the box, Su Li could guess that the thing inside was silver. Now that she happened to be short of money, giving her silver was just what she wanted.

Ling Yiran’s carriage drove further and further away. Su Li also turned around and went home.

When the woman at the village entrance saw Su Li and Ling Yiran talking for a long time, the gossip in her heart surged again. However, no one dared to say it in front of Su Li. They could only discuss it after she left.

Su Li’s combat strength was too strong. Last time, she directly scolded the most powerful woman in the village until she cried. Moreover, she specially picked on the sore spots of others, so she won every battle.

Even so, no one in the family could help her. He Yufeng was making the Rubik’s Cube while Yao Jun was making relatively simple building blocks. Everyone had a clear division of labor and no one had time.

Su Li thought for a moment and felt that this could not go on. She had to continue finding another person to help, but who should she find? This was a difficult problem.

She didn’t really want to use the people in the village. Those people were really too talkative. She didn’t want them to cause trouble for her when they couldn’t help.

Yao Jun threw away the building blocks in his hand and ran to play with Riceball. Suddenly, he felt a cold wind blow over and Su Li’s voice sounded from behind him.

“Are you very free?” Su Li asked.

Yao Jun turned around and smiled ingratiatingly: “I’m not free!!”

He was afraid that he would say something wrong and be kicked out of the door.

Su Li said, “Oh, forget it. I wanted to assign you a mission.”

Yao Jun’s eyes immediately lit up when he heard that. “Boss, what exactly is it? Tell me quickly. I promise to complete the mission..”
