Minglan kowtowed, her voice whimpered, and said: "Little girl Minglan is like this, a few days ago I asked a friend to buy a bottle of ointment in Qinghe County, and the person who bought the ointment was Lin Xiaowan. Because my friend received her this ointment very well, I thought about trying it. ”

"After I bought it back, I started to use it fine, my face became slippery, my acne disappeared, and I even felt that it had turned a lot whiter. At that time, I was still very happy, but I didn't expect that just two or three days ago, my face began to blister, which was painful and itchy. The blisters were broken, my face was full of red marks, and I couldn't see anyone. ”

"Please let me call the shots! Let this vicious woman who ruined my face be punished! ”

After speaking, Minglan kowtowed again, and didn't get up for a long time.

Jiang Tingyuan listened, but it was no different from what he heard just now. He said, "Lift up your head first and listen to me." ”

Minglan raised her head when she heard this, waiting to be questioned.

Jiang Tingyuan and Lin Xiaowan's eyes fell on Minglan 's face, and they were both puzzled. However, Lin Xiaowan did not rush to defend herself, and wanted to see how Jiang Tingyuan dealt with it.

It's just that what made Lin Xiaowan curious was why Jiang Tingyuan came out with an angry face, and even glanced at Feng Qingquan specifically. That look is like a warning, but also like a reminder.

Feng Qingquan naturally also noticed Jiang Tingyuan's gaze, and when he looked at each other, he had a bad premonition in his heart. Coupled with Jiang Tingyuan's face full of anger, he affirmed his thoughts even more.

It seems that it was not negotiated.

What annoyed Feng Qingquan the most was that he didn't do anything about it. Even if Mrs. Yong'an Hou won't blame, if she wants her to help herself, it shouldn't be possible. It's no wonder that the officials who went out brought back so late!

Thinking of this, Feng Qingquan couldn't help but glared angrily at those officials.

"When did you buy this ointment?" Jiang Tingyuan asked, "I want the exact time." ”

Minglan paused and said, "How many times ago...... Ten...... I don't remember exactly, sir. ”

How would she know? Madame didn't tell her, and she didn't say much. I just said that when the time came, I would cry and cry about how miserable I was, and the matter would soon be over. As for herself, she already hated the people who sold the ointment, and if it weren't for those ointments, her face wouldn't have become like this.

But she didn't dare to say it, and she didn't dare to get angry.

Jiang Tingyuan said solemnly: "When?" ”

"My lord, I really can't remember." Minglan lowered her head again and said in tears.

Jiang Tingyuan sighed and continued to ask, "Then when did you start using it?" ”

Minglan said: "I ...... a few days ago"

"How many days exactly?"

"I ......" Minglan raised her head with a bitter face, and said, "There are too many complicated things every day, I really can't remember it, adult." ”

Jiang Tingyuan raised his eyebrows: Too many complicated things? Mrs. Yong'an kept saying that this was her personal maid, but she didn't know why Minglan had so many complicated things. But he didn't break it, and the name of Mrs. Yong'an Hou still doesn't appear here as well

Jiang Tingyuan asked again: "Can you find a doctor?" ”

Minglan subconsciously wanted to shake her head, but then thought of Mrs. Yong'anhou's instructions, and changed her words: "I found it." ”

"What did the doctor say?" Jiang Tingyuan asked sharply.

The doctor said...... Say I'm doing this with those ointments. Deactivated, after deactivation, the scab should be fine. Minglan replied hesitantly, thinking as she spoke, for fear of saying something that shouldn't be said.

She didn't dare to make a mistake, and if she upset her wife, then she would have a sad life in the future.

She never thought that Madame had relieved her mind, as long as she insisted on using Lin Xiaowan's ointment, but now it was such a situation.

Lin Xiaowan stood aside, with a calm face, not worried about the result at all. And she was kneeling here, as if she were waiting for the verdict to be pronounced in the first place.

Those who cheat will always be weak-minded. On the other hand, Lin Xiaowan's frankness, the two formed a stark contrast.

Only then did Minglan think about it and observe Lin Xiaowan. It looks like an ordinary woman, without majesty or momentum. The face is pretty, and it looks very easy to touch. It's ordinary, but that heroic spirit is attractive.

Minglan didn't dare to look more, so she withdrew her gaze and waited.

"Are you sure that the ointment you used was sold by Lin Xiaowan?" Jiang Tingyuan asked solemnly.

Minglan did not hesitate, nodded and said, "Yes, my lord." ”

However, the hall was lively.

"Yo, whose daughter is this? That's seven taels of silver, I can't even remember when I bought it? If it's me, let alone a few days ago, let me tell me when I bought it, and I can tell if I bought it with the silver given with my left hand or with my right hand. ”

"What kind of young lady is this, have you ever seen a young lady who doesn't have one or two maids around her?"

"Look at this temperament, it should be a maid."

"Yes, yes, I can imagine it. And it's also a maid who is not favored. ”

"It's this face, it's really miserable."

"A maid, huh? Then it's even more impossible to remember the days! Spent so many belongings that you can't even remember the time? I don't believe it, old woman. ”

"I can't believe this."

Listening to these people, Jiang Tingyuan did not stop him, but looked at Minglan with a serious face. Minglan could naturally hear it, the more she said it, the worse her face became, and she wanted to speak several times, and finally she could only lower her head and pretend to wait calmly.

Feng Qingquan came out at this time and shouted, "Silence! Quiet! This is the court, not your front yard. ”

"Master Feng, isn't the court just for us to have something to say, we don't make any noise, why can't we?"

"Huh...... Master Jiang didn't speak. ”

"An old dog that jumped out of nowhere."

The title of the old dog suddenly made Feng Qingquan blow his beard and stare at him, "Presumptuous!" Shut your mouth before you speak! ”

Jiang Tingyuan sneered: "Master Feng's official authority is so great. ”

As soon as he said this, Feng Qingquan immediately shrank back and stopped arguing. As for what the people said, he affirmed: "Please also ask the villagers to be quiet, the public court really needs to be quiet, and I also ask the villagers to cooperate." If we find out that we have bent the law for personal gain, it is not too late to accuse. ”

"Okay, listen to Master Jiang."

"Master Jiang, you continue to interrogate, we won't speak."

After that, no one spoke freely.

Jiang Tingyuan had already thought about it in his heart, but there must always be a convincing basis, and he couldn't let Mrs. Yong'an Hou catch him like this. After all, what was said in the room, no fourth person knew.

It's different here.

Jiang Tingyuan looked at Lin Xiaowan and asked, "Do you have anything to say?" ”

He didn't have anything to ask Lin Xiaowan, the reason why he didn't interrogate Minglan too much was just to see how Lin Xiaowan was going to resolve it for herself.

Lin Xiaowan didn't think about so many twists and turns, and when she heard Jiang Tingyuan do this, she said bluntly: "My lord, I can defend myself." ”

Jiang Tingyuan said with a straight face: "You say." ”

Lin Xiaowan turned around, faced Minglan and said indifferently: "Miss Minglan, I have been observing you since I came. I don't ask you when and where you bought my ointment, what I want to ask you now is, if it's a problem with the ointment, why is it that only half of your face is ulcerated, but the other half is fine? Could it be that Miss Minglan only painted half of her face every time? ”

As soon as the words came out, it immediately caused an uproar.

Syllable!

The startling sound suppressed the chaotic sounds.

Minglan looked up at Lin Xiaowan and was speechless.

Is it possible to say that you are willing to wipe half of your face?

However, Lin Xiaowan didn't even give Minglan a chance to say this, she said, "Miss Minglan, I have carefully observed you. The skin tone on the other side of your face is noticeably better than the rest of your face. For example, the neck ......"

"So, you've all used the ointment. But why is it half good and half bad? ”

"Even if you're allergic, your whole face should be the same, right? So there is only one explanation, and that is that you are not using the same bottle of ointment on the left and right sides of your face. ”

"I don't know what I'm saying, right or wrong, Miss Minglan?"

Although it is speculation, it is reasonable and well-founded, but it makes people unable to say anything wrong. Looking at Minglan again's reaction, it is obvious that she has admitted that what Lin Xiaowan said is true, but because of a certain relationship, she doesn't dare to tell the truth.

Lin Xiaowan wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Jiang Tingyuan. I only heard Jiang Tingyuan ask: "Lin Xiaowan, what do you mean by allergies?" ”

"That's it...... A rejection reaction. Lin Xiaowan explained.

However, it seems that this explanation is not understandable.

Jiang Tingyuan asked uncertainly: "What you said should be, no?" Minglan 's face is not affected by this ointment, so it blisters? ”

"yes, that's what it means." Lin Xiaowan nodded and said, then looked at Feng Qingquan and asked, "The above is all my speculation, not enough to be trusted." Master Feng, do you want to say that? ”

Feng Qingquan was caught off guard by the question, but quickly reacted and said, "That's the case!" You can't just believe it on the basis of a few words that you justify yourself. ”

"It's okay, I can still find evidence." Lin Xiaowan shrugged indifferently, and then asked Jiang Tingyuan, "Master Jiang, do you want to continue?" ”

"Go on." Jiang Tingyuan said.

Evidence is the foundation of a verdict. Jiang Tingyuan deliberately did not interfere, he knew that the evidence that Lin Xiaowan said was ointment. As long as you take it out and test it, everything will be clear naturally.

Lin Xiaowan's idea was indeed so, and with Jiang Tingyuan's approval, Lin Xiaowan took out an ointment from her cloth pocket, and asked Minglan at the same time: "I don't know if Miss Minglan brought the ointment you usually put on her body?" ”

"Brought it." Minglan nodded, took out the ointment she was carrying, raised her hands flat, and said, "Here." ”

Lin Xiaowan smiled at the corner of her mouth and said, "This is the ointment I made, and if you compare the two, you can know if it is the same one." ”

"What if it is?" Jiang Tingyuan asked. In his opinion, this is not a good approach.

Lin Xiaowan didn't care, and said, "Then find something else." ”

"It just so happens that Pharmacist Zheng is here today, so I'm still bothering Pharmacist Zheng." Jiang Tingyuan looked at Zheng Qiankun who was standing on the side and said.

Zheng Qiankun walked out and said, "Lord Jiang is polite, this is my business. ”
