Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 7019 Shocked
"Your Excellency...?"

The middle-aged man turned his head and glanced at the visitor. Seeing that the visitor had an extraordinary demeanor, he seemed to be a son of a noble and wealthy family, so his tone softened.

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is how much money he owes you?" Zi Yan's tone was flat, with a hint of arrogance.

"Master, he doesn't owe me, he owes our boss. A total of 500 taels of silver, with recurring interest, and now he has to pay back 700 taels." The man said.

"I'm very puzzled. He looks like a poor scholar. How could your boss lend him so much? Kai Shantang is not like that." Zi Yan asked.

"Although Ge Hongmin is just a scholar, when he borrowed money, he was a knife and pen official in the county government. With this official status, it is no problem to borrow 500 taels." The middle-aged man said sincerely.

Zi Yan smiled and said: "So that's the case, that's good, I will help him pay back the money."

"Young master, I will pay back the money myself. Thank you for your kindness." Ge Hongmin took a step forward and cupped his hands.

What he didn't know was that once the son paid back the money for him, he might have to pay more and more terrible things in the future, and even endanger the lives of his family.

"You still have it?" Zi Yan sneered.

"No one who offends my young master will end well." Mi Qi next to her opened her eyes and raised her lips.

Ge Hongmin gritted his teeth, he was a little shaken.

The young man in front of him looked like he was from a wealthy family with his clothes and attire, and he was not an ordinary wealthy family, but a high-status family.

He has worked in the county government for more than ten years and has met many people, but there are not many who can compare with the young man in front of him in terms of temperament.

He is now in a dilemma.

Agree or disagree, the consequences seem to be serious.

But does he really have the right to refuse now?
"Ge Hongmin, this young master is willing to pay back the money for you. Isn't that a great benefit? If you refuse, can you bear the consequences?" The middle-aged man also persuaded.

The middle-aged man doesn't care who pays back the money. What he cares about is that he has the hope of recovering the debt. In this way, he will definitely be rewarded when he returns.

Since it was a matter of interest, of course he persuaded Ge Hongmin to accept it quickly.

"This is 700 taels of silver bills. You can take it back and pay for your business." Mi Qi took a step forward, took out a stack of silver bills, counted seven from the top, and stuffed them into the hands of the middle-aged man.

This is called cutting first and then playing...

"Brothers, let's go."

The middle-aged man got the money, greeted him, and walked away with his two younger brothers.

He walked so resolutely and so fast that in the end the three of them started running, afraid that the young man who gave the money would regret it.

Ge Hongmin glanced at Zi Yan with a complicated expression, then quickly lowered his head.

He didn't know what to say. From the beginning to the end, he actually had no choice.

"What? Why don't you take us to your house?" Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.

"My lord, the Vaisha is so simple, how can a nobleman stop?" Ge Hongmin's expression had gradually become numb.

"If I say yes, it's fine. Lead the way and walk." Zi Yan waved.

"Hey, let's go, my young master has spoken, you have to hurry up, what are you waiting for?" Mi Qi glared again.

Ge Hongmin shivered, nodded and walked forward.

"Young master, come with me."

The book boy next to the young master had terrifying eyes, as if he was about to kill someone. He didn't dare to delay any longer, so he could only turn around and walk into the distance.

After walking for a while, a small courtyard appeared in front of him.

This is a relatively remote place in the county, and the surrounding environment looks very ordinary.

The wooden gate to the small yard is locked from the outside.

"Your wife, aren't you at home?" Zi Yan frowned.

They didn't speak a word all the way, but when they reached the door of the house, they heard Zi Yan say something.

"Zhuo Jing is not in good health, and has been bedridden recently. When I was not at home, I was afraid of accidents, so I locked the door outside." Ge Hongmin said.

"Is there no child in your family?" Zi Yan asked again.

This Ge Hongmin is in his early thirties. People of this age have generally been married for more than ten years, and most of them have more than one child.

"It happened before, but I didn't bring it up and died young. Later, the lady was weak and didn't dare to have it. The doctor said that if she wanted the child, she might die." Ge Hongmin said in a low voice.

"So that's how it is. After a while, let me feel your wife's pulse to see what's going on." Zi Yan said lightly.

"Don't dare to trouble your son."

"Your wife's medical treatment is for your face, what's the fuss about?" Miqi said loudly.

"This, that young master can do whatever you want." Ge Hongmin shrank his neck.

"Mr. Ge is a scholar, don't be so loud, it will affect people's ears." Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.

Ge Hongmin felt wronged for a while, at first he thought that the young master wanted to speak for him, but unexpectedly, he just made the book boy's voice a little softer.

Well, from now on, you can do whatever you want.

Ge Hongmin took out the key, unlocked the door, and pushed open the door.

After stepping into the courtyard, I heard a cough coming from the wing room.

Ge Hongmin didn't care about anything else, he hurriedly walked a few steps, rushed into the main room, and entered the side room...

After Zi Yan entered the room with Mi Qi, what she saw was Ge Hongmin supporting a woman, patting her back, giving her comfort.

"I'm kidding, my wife has a cough." Ge Hongmin said.

Zi Yan noticed that the woman's complexion was very ugly, sallow and sallow, she looked like she had been ill for a long time.

"Let me take a look, stretch out your palm." Zi Yan said lightly.

"My lady, stretch out your hand, this is young master, he is a good man." Ge Hongmin said in a low voice.

He knew whether it was good or bad, no matter what the son's intentions were, at least he said that he wanted to see a doctor at the moment and it would not be malicious.

The woman stretched out a hand from under the quilt.

This hand is scorched, like dry firewood, and the skin is a little wrinkled.

Zi Yan stretched out two fingers and pressed on the woman's veins.

"The doctor in the county said that my wife has lost both blood and vigor, and her internal organs have been damaged..." Ge Hongmin said.

"Don't talk, my young master is thinking about something, don't interrupt him." Mi Qi spoke in a low voice this time, but the effect was very good. As soon as he opened his mouth, Ge Hongmin shut up.

After a while, Ziyan let go of her finger, glanced at Ge Hongmin and said, "Go, go to the next door to talk."

With just such a sentence, Ge Hongmin was already nervous.

Could it be that the situation is very bad?
After coming to another room, Ge Hongmin looked at Zi Yan with anxiety.

"Your lady, it's not a disease, it's poisoning." Zi Yan said lightly.

"This... Young Master, how could my wife be poisoned?" The result beyond his imagination made him startled.

"How did you get poisoned? I don't know. You should think about it yourself. When did your wife get sick? And under what circumstances did she get sick?"
