Old man Tu has been a doctor for decades, and has dealt with patients all his life, and has long seen through the good and evil of human nature.

From the heart of a little apprentice, how could he not understand, seeing that she was depressed, so he changed his irritability in the past, patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "People's hearts are not ancient, the world is difficult, if you dig your heart into others at every turn, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later." As a doctor, if you want to read the sinister nature of human nature in the future, you should look at it early. ”

Xia Qiu was suddenly lost, "Master, I don't regret giving medicine to the villagers, I just feel that this kindness may be used." ”

Old man Tu squinted, already guessing her concern, "No matter what others do, we can just have a clear conscience." You are tired enough to follow Xiao Lu Zhuan, take good care of your spirit, there are still many things to do. ”

Xia Qiu didn't speak again, stunned.

The master didn't understand her uneasiness, not because he was afraid that the villagers and laborers would kidnap her with morality, but from those hundreds of pairs of eyes, he saw the troubled times before the county town of Lin County was broken, and the sinister human heart.

In the month of being trapped, Lin County ran out of ammunition and food.

It is the instinct of human nature to live. At first, it was just smashing and looting, but later it caused trouble and hurt people, and then even people ate people, and the hell in the world is nothing more than that.

The evil of the red fruit fruit vividly shows the selfishness of human nature, so that the fear hidden in Xia Qiu's heart is suddenly released.

After the Jin family finished the work at hand, he took the time to stew a cup of Ningshen nourishing soup in the back kitchen, and then fried two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and served it to Xia Qiu.

The familiar taste, the hot meal, Xia Qiu looked at the vivid Jin's and looked at himself lovingly, and the haze was suddenly swept away.

The kind of eyes like looking at a daughter-in-law are like a light in the dark, pulling Xia Qiu out of the mud.

With my mother here, everything is no longer so scary.

After eating and drinking, Xia Qiu gave Lu Tingxiu a share again.

Lu Tingxiu has a habit of cleanliness, no matter how busy he is, the government office is in order, but now it is messy, the desk is full of messy official documents, not to mention, and paper seals are thrown all over the ground.

Oh, there are no incompetent people under the magistrate, so he can only treat himself as a bull.

Instructed Lu Tingxiu to the side to eat, Xia Qiu squatted on the ground to clean up the scattered paper seals, and looked at them a few times out of curiosity, all of which were portraits of mine guards.

There are no new clues now, and he collects the portraits of these dead people in order to find clues from them. There are so many people in Yamen, it can be regarded as Bai Xiaosheng of Lin County, but none of these people are familiar, and most of them are outsiders.

Xia Qiuhu asked: "You plan to make the portrait of the deceased public as a breakthrough?" ”

"No, this can only be investigated secretly."

Xia Qiu was surprised, but it was not surprising that a private mine of this scale dared to announce that under the guise of recruiting workers at sky-high prices, the power of the people behind the scenes was so great that they were not afraid of the incompetent government at all.

You must know that the previous magistrates were all soft bones, and they didn't even dare to care about bullies insulting people's lives, let alone such a tricky case.

They are confident that anyone can hold it in their hands, who knows that Lu Tingxiu is a hard bone.

It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he breaks the law and commits crimes, he doesn't have to discuss.

To fight a snake, you have to take advantage of its slack to have a chance to hit seven inches. If you bite at this time, it is very likely that things will be reversed, such as assassinating officials, or messing up Lin County, which will outweigh the losses.

If you want to be a good official of Lin County, it is difficult to ascend to the sky.

Xia Qiu pulled out one of the portraits, frowned, and said, "I haven't seen this person." ”

She held in her hand the portrait of the mysterious man, dressed in a nocturnal black robe, and could not see anything except his eyes and fat body.

Lu Tingxiu pondered for a moment, "He is the person who destroyed the mouth of the mine, even if he is not the instigator behind the scenes, his status is definitely not low." ”

Xia Qiu couldn't help but look at it twice.

"This person may be related to the person who recruited An Niu Woling." Lu Tingxiu put down his chopsticks, and his warm and deep eyes fell on her, "You have a flexible brain, what are your high opinions?" ”

Yo, the sun is coming out in the west.

Xia Qiu felt that Lu Tingxiu was a philistine, so he would bow his head appropriately and pat himself on the back.

In the past, he kept saying that she was a cook, but now he would discuss important government cases with her.

Is this to impress her?

"Thanks to Lord Lu for not giving up, I will do my best."

Well, her face is so big, Lu Tingxiu smiled and said nothing, and continued to bow his head to eat.

Xia Qiu really recognized it, Lin County is located in the middle of nowhere, and the people tighten their belts to live, except for her who is infected with strange poison, there are not many fat people.

However, in addition to the county seat, there are 36 towns in Lin County, and it is not easy to get into the right seat.

"Lin County is rich and so fat, there shouldn't be much, right?" In her previous life, she was just a peasant girl, and Xia Qiu really didn't have a score in her heart about the situation outside the village.

"That's a lot." Lu Tingxiu had a lot of whispers between his words, "Don't look at Lin County as poor, but in fact, it's not bad for money, it's just concentrated in the hands of a few people." It is not easy for the powerful merchants in the towns, the leaders of various tribes, etc., to find out for a while. ”

Xia Qiu stared at the portrait for a long time, and then recalled the details of the labor case before and after, and said thoughtfully: "Even though there are a lot of fat people, there are not many who know everything about the government's movements." ”

Lu Tingxiu's eyes showed appreciation, "Do you have any suspicions?" ”

Xia Qiu hesitated: "Private mining mountains, in addition to requiring huge financial resources, power is also indispensable. The Hua family is famous as a Confucian businessman in Lin County, commonly known as a good man in the business world, and his shadow is indispensable for building bridges and roads. Such a soft persimmon, why didn't Wu Tongxing dare to pinch it? ”

Lu Tingxiu was surprised, staring straight at Xia Qiu. Interesting!

Xia Qiu was weird, touching his own face, "What do you think I'm doing?" ”

"Hua Ting is not thin on you."

couldn't stand his yin and yang weirdness, Xia Qiu glanced at him, "Let's talk about the case now, don't let go of all the suspects, why are you mentioning Huating?" I didn't doubt him. ”

"Oh, I thought it ......," Lu Tingxiu'er, "it turns out that you suspect Master Hua." ”

As for the ghost, she is not blind, looking at him so clearly, he also suspects the Hua family, he just wants to drag her into the water.

The so-called words and deeds, a true Confucian businessman will not teach Hua Ting to be a fool, let alone openly run the casino well. Whether it's a coincidence or a misunderstanding, Mazi fished Xia Lao Er and Qiao Lao Hei in Changsheng Gambling House.

This person is observant, and he will inevitably be in the Changsheng gambling house for a long time, and even a low-key person like her can be caught by the keen eyes of the gambler, and there is no reason for the casino to let go of the pockmark.

"The Hua family not only has a gambling house, but also two brothels." Lu Tingxiu's words are not shocking, and he is endless.

Xia Qiu couldn't close his mouth, Hua Ting Yanfu was not shallow, no wonder he was not interested in Yingying Yanyan, it turned out that he was tired of watching it before changing his taste.

Gambling houses and brothels have always been the fastest places to collect information, so her suspicion of the Hua family is not groundless or a temporary interest.

However, suspicion is suspicion, and the government does things based on evidence.
