Chapter 54: The Root of the Death of the Original Owner
After administering the needle to Mrs. Chu, Bai Qiuluo went out with Hua Guohua.
"Doctor Hua, how is my wife?" The door opened, and Chu Xing asked first.
"It's under control for the time being, but the condition is not optimistic, and I asked Chu Yuanwai to prepare two rooms, I'm afraid that Qiuluo and I will have to live in the village these days." Hua Guohua said lightly.
"Okay, I'll get people ready." Chu Xing said, and directly ordered Li Chaoran on the side to prepare the room.
Li Chaoran responded, turned around and went down to prepare.
At noon that day, the next person invited Bai Qiuluo to lunch.
Bai Qiu arrived relatively late, and almost everyone sat down.
Chu Juncai sat next to Chu Xing, looking well-behaved and pure.
If it weren't for the speculation caused by the previous accident, Bai Qiuluo might really think that he was a simple child with insufficient intelligence.
But such a child may cost Mrs. Chu's life!
After treating Mrs. Chu, Bai Qiuluo took the opportunity to inquire about the situation of the Chu family.
It turns out that the current Mrs. Chu is not Chu Xing's original partner, and Chu Jun is the birth of Chu Xing and his original partner, after the original partner died, Chu Xing married the current wife, and there has been nothing for many years.
Chu Juncai was not a fool at the beginning, it is said that he was very favored by Chu Xing after he was born, and he was also known as a prodigy when he was eight years old, his mother died, and he had a serious illness, and he became a fool after waking up.
Although Chu Xing's heart hurts, he has never given up on this child, but he has always been very good to Chu Juncai when he is at home.
I heard that Chu Juncai is actually fifteen years old now, and boys are generally taller and stronger than girls, but Chu Juncai is only fifteen years old, but his body is only as tall as her, a thirteen-year-old girl, which shows that when Chu Xing is not at home, his life is not necessarily very good.
Bai Qiuluo was sure that there must be some story between Mrs. Chu and Chu Juncai.
And judging from Chu Juncai's behavior, he may be pretending to be crazy! Thinking about him being a prodigy, he must be extremely smart, and it is not impossible to protect himself by pretending to be crazy.
If everything is as she thinks, Chu Juncai did it, then what kind of grievance can make a child not hesitate to pretend to be crazy and stupid, but also to kill a woman?
Bai Qiuluo felt that his mind was a little unable to turn.
"Everyone's here, let's eat." Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chu Xing, who was at the top, spoke.
After starting to eat, Chu Xing first picked up the dishes and chopsticks to feed Chu Juncai, Chu Juncai grinned, looked at Chu Xing with admiration, and smiled very innocently.
Bai Qiuluo looked at it, and his heart was a little hairy.
Anyone who sees such a smile will not believe that such a seemingly stupid and innocent child will be the real murderer behind the scenes, right?
Bai Qiuluo ate without knowing the taste.
When I raised my hand to pick up the dishes, I found that the Chu family's dinner was very rich, and many dishes were available.
Chu Xing fed Chu Juncai before he began to eat by himself.
Bai Qiuluo found that Chu Xing was a picky eater, only eating a few dishes in front of him, Bai Qiuluo looked at the few dishes that Chu Xing ate, but couldn't help frowning slightly.
Subsequently, Bai Qiuluo focused most of his energy on observing Chu Xing's eating.
After finishing the meal, Li Chaoran brought a medicine and gave it to Chu Xing to drink.
"Is the owner of Chu Zhuang unwell? Is this a medicine to drink? Bai Qiuluo couldn't help but ask.
Chu Xing was slightly stunned, "It's not uncomfortable, this is a health soup, I may be old these years, and I have been feeling powerless." Steward Li had a heart, so he went to the doctor to prescribe this recipe, and he kept drinking it, but he thought it was not bad. ”
"I see." Bai Qiuluo smiled slightly and didn't ask more.
Li Chaoran on the side tensed up when Bai Qiuluo spoke, and seemed to be very nervous, and when he saw that she didn't ask, he relaxed.
Li Chaoran was an extremely feared existence in Bai Qiuluo's heart, so his strangeness fell in Bai Qiuluo's eyes, which also made her vigilant.
When Chu Xing was drinking the medicine, the tip of her nose moved slightly, she smelled the smell of medicine in the air, her heart jumped, but her face was silent.
After the meal, Bai Qiu went to the kitchen, and happened to meet someone carrying the medicine residue to pour it.
Bai Qiuluo stopped him and asked with a smile: "This is the residue of the health soup that your owner drank?" ”
"yes."
"Can you show me, the owner of Chu Zhuang said that this soup works well, my father has not been in good health, if this medicine is really as good as the owner of Chu said, I want to try it for him when I go back." Bai Qiuluo said with a smile.
In my heart, I was silently apologizing to Bai Zixin, Dad, let you take the blame, I'm sorry!
"The white girl is really filial, then look at it." When the man heard this, he didn't refuse, and handed the medicine residue to Bai Qiuluo.
Bai Qiuluo stretched out his hand to rummage among the medicinal residues, sniffed the smell of the medicine again, and then smiled: "Thank you, I think I know what medicinal materials are." ”
Maybe her smile was too clean and confusing, and the family turned red when he saw it, and hurriedly said, "No thanks, then I'll go pour the medicine residue first." ”
The man and Bai Qiuluo hurried by.
Bai Qiuluo smiled and walked towards the guest room.
Sure enough, there was a problem!
Bai Qiuluo frowned, not knowing whether he should meddle or not.
Back in the courtyard, Bai Qiuluo lay on the bed, thinking about the strange things he encountered one after another in the Chu family today, one was Chu Juncai, who seemed to be stupid, but wanted to kill his stepmother, which was unbelievable.
The other is that Chu Xing's food is problematic.
Someone is using food and pharmacology to give him chronic poison, this person is likely to be Li Chaoran, even if it is not him, it has something to do with him!
However, this is all the conclusion she came to after secretly observing.
There is no evidence to prove it.
She and Chu Xing have no relatives and no reason, just came to his Zhuangzi today, or came to treat his wife's illness, if you rashly run to tell him, your son wants to harm your wife, someone in your house wants to harm you, will Chu Xing treat her as a psychopath?
Not to mention whether Chu Xing would believe it, in case he didn't believe it, and her words were listened to by other well-intentioned people, then the secret hand hidden in this Zhuangzi to kill Chu Xing was about to come at her?
Bai Qiuluo didn't know, but he could also feel that his behavior was definitely inappropriate.
Chu Xing is a good person, she doesn't want him to have an accident, but in the same way, she doesn't want to lose her life because of this matter.
What to do?
Bai Qiuluo couldn't think clearly for a while, and in the entanglement, Bai Qiuluo fell asleep.
In a trance, Bai Qiuluo had a dream.
In the dream, she appeared in the back mountain, carrying a basket on her back.
Someone was facing away from her, talking.
"Can I add the dose this month?"
"It's better not to, if you add it, it's easy to expose the filling."
"But the old guy seems to have become suspicious, and if he is not solved, I am afraid that there will be a problem."
"What could be the problem? He believes in you so much, believes in his wife, where can something go wrong? You can just follow the weight with peace of mind, and when the time comes, he will naturally die. When he dies, all the property in his name will be yours. ”
Perhaps the word death was too cold, which scared Bai Qiuluo, and she took a few steps back in shock in her dream.
The foot stepped on the dead branch, and there was a crisp click, attracting the eyes of the two people who spoke.
One of them was wearing a cloak and covering his face, so he couldn't see clearly, but the other looked like Li Chaoran.
Bai Qiuluo was so frightened that he turned around and ran.
As soon as the screen turned, another scene appeared in front of me.
She galloped through the mountains in a panic, and finally got down the mountain, and walked briskly on the way back to the village, but was hit by the oncoming carriage, and her head hit the stone on the side of the road.
Even if it hurts.
Pain carved into the bone marrow.
When she looked up, her vision was blurred, and what she saw was Li Chaoran's indifferent gaze when she lifted the curtain and looked at her.
Even if Bai Qiu fell asleep, his body lying on the bed couldn't help trembling, full of cold sweat.
In the dream, she had passed out, Li Chaoran didn't seem to be at ease, and sent a coachman to mend the knife for her, but because she happened to meet a villager returning to the village, she had no choice but to give up.
Later, because the carriage hit someone and was arrested, there was another-stirring stick Bai Zichao, and Li Chaoran immediately paid 50 taels of silver, saying that it was for her to bury herself.
Later, in order to embezzle the fifty taels of silver, Bai Zichao threw Bai Qiuluo in a mass grave in the mountains, and then she crossed over.
Bai Qiuluo suddenly woke up from his dream at this time, his forehead was full of cold sweat, and his eyes were full of fear and uneasiness.
She remembered, remembered!
No wonder the original owner buried this memory, but it turned out that this was the source of her death.
At that time, the original owner unexpectedly overheard Li Chaoran and others conspiring to kill people, although he heard it without a beginning or end, but he also got Li Chaoran's jealousy, and he was about to kill people at that time, in fact, the original owner was indeed dead.
At that time, the original owner didn't know who the person Li Chaoran wanted to kill was, but now it seems that that person must be Chu Xing.
Then the food she saw today, coupled with the pharmacological neutralization of poisoning Chu Xing, must have been done by Li Chaoran.
The moment he figured everything out, Bai Qiu was covered in cold sweat.
Then, anger welled up in my heart.
The original owner was killed because he accidentally heard Li Chaoran's words without a head or tail, but Li Chaoran was still alive and well, wearing gold and silver and wanted to occupy Chu Xing's property, I heard that Li Chaoran, who was saved by Chu Xing under the hands of bandits, Chu Xing was his savior, but he wanted to harm him, he was simply a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be fed!
"Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you for your revenge, and I will never let Li Chaoran live safely and get away with it." Bai Qiuluo clenched his fists and opened his mouth low.
She said that to the original owner.
When the words fell, she felt a touch of joy and relief rise in her heart.
Bai Qiuluo couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his heart, so, was that the most intuitive reaction of the original owner himself?
"Little junior sister, the master asked you to come over...... Hey, are you taking a nap? Did I wake you up? Meng Donghai strode in the door and was a little embarrassed to see Bai Qiuluo who was still sitting on the bed.
