They had called Lin Yaxiang over for two reasons.
One was to scare Xie Pinghuai, and the other was to ask her if she had ever drowned a baby girl like the old woman they caught today.
Xie Pinggang was a bad person himself. He used to be a bandit, but he knew that he had to abide by the rules in his line of work.
What was a midwife?
It was a way to survive!
If she drowned baby girls, they would not get in contact with the Lin family anymore.
Moreover, now that he was handling this case, if there were people deliberately looking for trouble, they would definitely look into Lin Yaxiang's past. If she had killed babies before, by then, they would definitely force him to punish Lin Yaxiang.
Hence, he asked Lin Yaxiang to make some preparations in advance. That was right... to be prepared to be killed by him.
Of course, Xie Pinggang still had some confidence in the Lin family.
