This was the first time that Xin Yi saw the body of the person who drowned in the water ghost case. On the way back to the village while driving the donkey cart, she was thinking about the nux vomica tree by the canal, and she felt uneasy and sneezed several times in a row.

.

"Mom, someone is thinking of you."

Sannian shouted to her on the carriage with a smile.

Xin Yi glanced over lazily, "It must be you three bad guys who read it. One thought, two thoughts, three thoughts... sneeze!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

The children forgot quickly and were not affected by Yun Qiqiao's incident. They were particularly happy sitting in Uncle Fu's car.

When Xin Yi returned home, she saw Mrs. Cao waiting at the door of her house, carrying a bamboo basket in one hand, a chicken in the other, and her son Tiedan, saying hello from all the way.

"The little lady is back?"

This naughty boy Tiedan is an honest man today, but he just hangs his head and is not very happy.

Xin Yi smiled and said, "Why is Mrs. Cao here?"

Lady Cao didn't feel awkward at all. She put the squealing chicken on the ground, pulled her son's ears, and asked him to apologize to Xin Yi and the child.

How could Xin Yi really care about her child?

She laughed it off.

However, Mrs. Cao sighed with emotion, "I thought about it later and realized that what you scolded me that day was quite right. When something happened to the stone, I looked at the iron egg like an eyeball. I was too arrogant and spoiled him. This

If something goes wrong now, something bigger will happen in the future. By then, it will be too late to regret..."

As she spoke, she took the chicken and the bamboo basket and stuffed them into Xin Yi's hands.

"Thanks to you this time, I have nothing to thank you for. You fell into the water a few days ago, and the soup made by this chicken is just right to replenish your body. And these eggs... the child is growing tall and eating just right."

Xin Yi didn't answer, and just said: "Ms. Cao, you're welcome. I've already paid the consultation fee, so I can't take your things anymore."

"This is my intention. You must accept it, otherwise you will still hold grudges and be angry with me."

"No, no." Xin Yi smiled slightly, "I take revenge on the spot when I have a grudge. I usually don't take it personally."

Mrs. Cao looked at her in astonishment.

After a moment, he let out a sneer.

"To be honest, I really like your cheerful temperament."

Then he pushed something to Xin Yi, "Whether you think it's my apology, or whether I sincerely make friends with you, I have to accept it, otherwise I won't go back..."

Xin Yi didn't want to fight for this little thing, so he smiled and asked Yi Nian to come over and take the things. Then he turned around and opened the cover of the donkey cart, and took out some pastries and preserved fruits bought from Bianjing City.

"I know your family is lacking in everything, but this Bazhen cake is good for me. It also strengthens the spleen and stomach. I have just recovered from a serious illness, so eating it is the best thing."

Miss Cao's natal family, Xiao Cao's Mansion, is not comparable to the Great Cao's Mansion, not to mention that her mother is just an aunt raised by a girl, with a low status, and she is far from as glamorous as she married into the Lu family.

"You have just separated your family, and everything is inconvenient. How can I get your things?"

Xin Yi smiled and shook his head, "How can you, a fellow villager, make me poor just because of this? There will be many places for Madam Cao to help me in the future."

Mrs. Cao became enthusiastic and said, "You can speak up if you have any questions. I am also a person who can speak to this village. If anyone wants to bully you mother and son again in the future, I will not spare him."

Xin Yi pondered for a moment and then laughed.

"There is really a matter in front of me, and I need Mrs. Cao's help..."

Xin Yi looked around, at the dilapidated house and yard, then at the three skinny children, and sighed helplessly.

"I plan to renovate these three dilapidated houses and make a living to support my family, but with three children, my hands and feet are not convenient. I want to find some helpers to help me cope..."

Miss Cao is a smart person, and she understood what she meant as soon as she heard it.

She originally thought that Xin Yi didn't have the money to hire a handyman, but looking at the things she hauled back in the donkey cart, none of them were bargains, and she wasn't someone who was short of money at all.

Thirty years in Hedong and forty years in Hexi. This young lady is a capable person and has the ability to be the king of Guangling County. From now on, who will ask for help is still uncertain. It is definitely right to build a good relationship.

Miss Cao thought about it, and the smile on her face became a little softer.

"Isn't this difficult to handle?"

Mrs. Xiao Cao pursed her lips, pointed to the courtyard opposite the official road, and lowered her voice, "Although your husband's family is not a thing, your uncle's family are all honest and responsible people. It's so convenient to have this door to door."

Zhang Zhengfu's family and Zhang Zhengxiang's family had many festivals due to the division of ancestral property and various events after Zhang Xun came to power. Even when Zhang Xun died, Zhang Zhengfu only came once to offer incense and a funeral meal.

Not even a bite was taken.

Seeing the smile on Mrs. Cao's face, Xin Yi felt blessed.

"That's good."

…

The eldest uncle's family has many children, and there are more than ten people in the family. They make a living by selling rice cakes at a stall in Hongqiao, and their life is tight.

His family has two daughters, one named Xiang Ling and the other Liang Ren, who have already reached the age of marriage. However, due to rumors that the girl in Zhangjia Village had unknown children, neither girl was betrothed to another family.

Xiangling fourteenth year has narrow eyes, smiles first when meeting people, looks smart and lovable.

My beloved is fifteen, tall and strong, with a steady temperament, and is a good worker.

That night, Xin Yi asked Yi Nian and San Nian to bring some candies and pastries to his uncle's house for his two grandsons.

The family member knew that she and her husband's family were not getting along, so he was not surprised by her overtures. In order to reciprocate the kindness, Xinyi couldn't burn the kang at night, so the uncle asked Zhang Liangren to come over to help, and brought two loads of firewood by the way.

Xin Yi took the opportunity to propose that he hire two sisters, Xiang Ling and Liang Ren, to come to the house to help them, each paying fifty cents a day.

Zhang Zhengfu's family has a lot of labor force, and there is no shortage of work for his two little girls. When he heard this, he was so grateful. How could he not refuse?

Under the recommendation of Madam Xiao Cao, Xin Yi found a few young and middle-aged handymen and hired them one hundred cents a day. After working from dawn to dusk for five or six days, he renovated three old houses.

New tiles were replaced, walls were repaired, fences were built, and a new stove was built. Wood piles were driven in near the Bianhe River, planks were laid, and a square wooden bank was built with thatch.

A pavilion was built on the wooden bank for rest...

The weeds outside the house were pulled clean, the soil was turned over, and a fence was built around it. The radish and cabbage bought by the uncle's house were scattered and chopped with chives and garlic, and everything started to look decent...

Xin Yi himself was not idle either. He took his three children and two sisters from the Zhang family, and while handling the medicinal materials hauled back from the Sun Family Pharmacy, he started planning for his own face seriously.

The first finished product she made was "Qingyan Babai Powder".

There is no way, she has task obsessive-compulsive disorder, and at the same time she also has some hope - she wants to return to her original world...

When she woke up, she couldn't put it back on, but Fu Jiuqu sent Duan Sui to deliver some pharmaceutical equipment.

Also delivered at the same time was Duan Sui's big mouth.

"The water ghost case has come to an end, and the criminal has been killed——"

Xin Yi was shocked, "The murderer? Who is it?"

Duan Sui gave him a pass, and after Xin Yi poured him a sip of tea to drink, he smiled and said: "It is thanks to Sun Huai that he helped our ninth master interrogate a female traitor, and the female traitor recruited a male traitor."

The murderer..."

Xin Yi pricked up his ears.

"It would be a long story to tell you this."

Before Duan Sui could finish his voice, he suddenly propped himself up on the table.

"Okay, if you want to know what happened next, I'll explain it later. I have official duties, so I'll excuse you."

Xin Yi gritted his teeth and saw Duan Sui was about to leave, so he kicked the chair. The chair flew over and hit Duan Sui's back leg hard...

With a bang, Duan Sui knelt forward and fell.

"You...attacked me?" He turned back suddenly and glared at Xin Yi.

Boom! Xin Yi raised his feet and stepped on the back of the chair, looking at him with a half-smile,

"To whet your appetite, chop off your feet but kill your hands. Either you whet my appetite, or I'll chop off your hands~choose!"
