Chapter 338: The Most Poisonous Heart (1)
When Shen Yuechen heard this, her expression couldn't help but change color.
Sure enough, someone poisoned it...... Thanks to them, they can think of this method, and mix the poison into sandalwood, which unconsciously inhales people's bodies.
After Shen Yuechen recalled, He Yalin's face that couldn't hide her thoughts couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Changfeng was also embarrassed, he didn't want to take care of this matter voluntarily.
Sandalwood is poisonous, this is something he can be sure of, but there are thousands of poisons in the world, if you can't find the person who poisoned it, you have to work hard to find out why this poison is.
Lu Changfeng saw that Shen Yuechen was silent, and only used his fingertips to gently stroke along the rim of the cup one by one, which was also difficult.
"Grandma, human life is at stake, without further ado. Since it has been found that sandalwood is poisonous, it is better to quickly identify the elders in the family and conduct a thorough investigation. ”
Shen Yuechen didn't know the urgency of the matter.
It's just that this matter is too big, and it involves the second room, so she can't go and talk to the elders alone.
Shen Yuechen immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhu Jintang, who supervised the granary, and asked him to hurry up and come back.
Sure enough, Zhu Jintang got her message, put down what he was doing, and hurried back.
He originally thought that she was uncomfortable, but when he saw her sitting upright, she looked unharmed, but her expression was heavy, and Lu Changfeng on the side was also standing with her eyes down, looking embarrassed.
Zhu Jintang couldn't help but wonder, and hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Yuechen put the small piece of sandalwood on the table and said softly: "I heard today that Aunt Tao in the second room is seriously ill, and even Zhu Qingyue's child is also sick. The concubine wanted to make a contribution, so she asked Dr. Lu to go over and have a look. Dr. Lu's medical skills, the concubine body is the most trustworthy. It's just that after Dr. Lu checked the pulse, he noticed something unusual...... Aunt Tao's illness is already strange, and the high fever does not go away, it looks very much like the symptoms of summer plague, but in fact, it ......"
She said as she handed the sandalwood forward, "The concubine was worried that it was the summer plague that would affect our family, so she asked Dr. Lu to take a closer look." ”
Speaking of which, Lu Changfeng took over the conversation in a timely manner and continued: "Grandma, the following things will be told by the old man. ”
Shen Yuechen nodded, and Zhu Jintang frowned slightly: "Doctor Lu, you go on." ”
Lu Changfeng stroked his beard and continued: "The old man has been practicing medicine for decades and has seen many symptoms of summer plague. This disease is menacing, and once you get it, you will die. However, according to the old man's experience in practicing medicine for many years, Aunt Tao's illness is not a disease of summer plague. The old man has always told the truth in front of the grandmother, and Aunt Tao's body is not a fever, but a heat poison. Therefore, the old man and the grandmother told about it, and after the grandmother knew, she tried to go to Aunt Tao's room, and found this piece of sandalwood. ”
Poison! When Zhu Jintang heard this word, the corners of his forehead instantly bulged with a green tendon.
His face calmed down, and he looked at Shen Yuechen and said, "You mean that someone poisoned the family?" ”
Shen Yuechen nodded slightly: "That's true." Sandalwood is poisonous, and the people targeted are undoubtedly Aunt Tao and Qingyue. ”
Zhu Jintang shook his head in disbelief, but what Shen Yuechen said would definitely not be wrong, and the evidence was in front of him.
Zhu Jintang stood up suddenly, put away the sandalwood wrapped in a handkerchief on the table, turned around and walked outside the house.
Seeing this, Shen Yuechen hurriedly followed, but his pace was too fast for her to catch up.
"Miss, slow down......" Cui Xin hurriedly stepped forward to help and raised her voice to persuade.
As soon as she said this, Zhu Jintang's feet paused, and she quickly turned around, looked at Shen Yuechen and said, "You slow down." ”
Right now, no matter what happens to his family, the only person he wants to take care of is Shen Yuechen.
Shen Yuechen saw that Zhu Jintang was angry, and didn't want him to act impulsively, so he hurriedly said, "Where is the uncle going to go with such an angry look?" ”
Zhu Jintang clenched his palms and said: "Naturally, I want to find out, there are people who do such a bad thing at home and poison people, this is the worst thing." ”
Shen Yuechen also knew the seriousness of this matter, but she didn't want to see Zhu Jintang lose his temper, this was the matter of the inner courtyard.
"Uncle, don't worry, the concubine will go to the room with you."
If such a thing happens, it is most appropriate to let the elders come forward to do it.
Zhu Jintang knew the scruples in her heart, and was silent for a while, before nodding and saying, "Okay, let's go over together." ”
It was a long time before dinner, and the courtyard was quiet, except for the maids passing by from time to time, holding the cups and dishes needed for dinner.
Just after this silence, suddenly, I heard the old man shouting: "Ridiculous! It's ridiculous! Who did such an unseemly thing? ”
The maids outside the door were startled by his sudden shouting, and some of them almost broke the things in their hands.
The old man rarely has such a big temper, and his slightly thin body shook his anger slightly, and even his gray beard trembled.
The old lady's face was also extremely ugly, and she shook her head and said, "What a sin!" Who did it exactly? ”
Shen Yuechen lowered his eyes slightly: "I just found the poison by accident, but who is the person who poisoned it?" You have to ask your aunt to check carefully to find out. ”
She already had an answer in her heart, but for the sake of a harmonious relationship between her family, she deliberately covered it up.
Such a thing, no matter how well it is hidden, it is difficult to get rid of it completely.
The old lady naturally didn't allow her family to do such a miasma of things, and she immediately sent someone to find Chai's family.
In the afternoon, Chai just complained to the old lady, saying that the old lady was too partial, and everything had been long-lived, so that her status as the second lady of the Zhu family in the family was getting lower and lower, and she was about to be a junior.
The old lady calmly persuaded her a few words, only saying that it was to give Shen Yuechen a few words of exercise, and she had no partiality.
Suddenly, the Chai family came to the upper room a little angrily, and as soon as he entered the room, he didn't bother to salute the elders at first, but went straight to Shen Yuechen, and asked in a cold voice: "Shen Yuechen, what are your ideas?" ”
Shen Yuechen was stunned by her question, and seeing that her tone was not good, she hurriedly got up and said, "Auntie, didn't you misunderstand something?" ”
Chai sneered: "What is the misunderstanding? It's only been a day, and you've messed up our second room. What else could I misunderstand! Shen Yuechen, you can't wait for anything, are you? You have to step on the head of the second room to feel comfortable, don't you? ”
Chai, who was angry for a while, was a little speechless, completely losing his usual grace and nobility, his words were sharp, and his eyes were cold.
Zhu Jintang's face sank, he took two steps forward, blocked in front of Shen Yuechen, looked at the Chai family, and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, it's not too late for you to figure things out before getting angry, Yuechen has nothing right or wrong, you don't have to embarrass her like this!" ”
Chai Shi saw Zhu Jintang standing up and talking back, and he was even more unhappy in his heart: "Jintang, Jintang, I have been an aunt in vain, I have hurt you for so many years, and you have never thought about it at all in your heart." What am I embarrassed about her? Obviously, you guys are matched together to embarrass me, and it's true that nylon is embarrassed. ”
When Zhu Jintang heard this, he was a little anxious.
"Auntie, what you said is serious, if this sandalwood is not discovered by Yuechen, then someone may never know about the poisoning. The Zhu family is so big, there are so many people inside and out, if you don't find out this vicious person, what will you do if someone is killed in the future? ”
Chai Shi was choked by his words, but he still looked indignant: "In any case, this poisoned person will never be the person next to me, if you want to investigate, you shouldn't just check me, everyone in the family must find out." ”
Seeing her unreasonable appearance, the old lady couldn't help frowning and said, "Second daughter-in-law, have you figured out the ins and outs of the matter?" This matter is not that we are deliberately targeting the people around you, but that someone has indeed poisoned Xiao Tao and Qingyue! Do you know that this is something that is happening under your own nose, what reason do you have to blame others? ”
Chai Shi listened to the old lady's words, and was unconvinced, but his tone softened a little: "Old lady, what kind of person I am, don't you know?" I am usually cautious in my words and deeds, abide by etiquette, and never do anything transgressive, but if I am not angry today, how can I be so excited? ”
The old lady snorted lightly: "Listen to your words, it is clear that you are being sarcastic, Yuechen does not understand the rules and is secretly making trouble." However, don't you want to think about it, she's a pregnant person, who has nothing to do when she is full, can she use such a lie to confuse you? Now that this poison has been found and placed in front of you, don't you feel afraid in your heart? If, if she hadn't found out, wouldn't it be another great scourge for this thing to stay with you? ”
Chai glanced at Shen Yuechen, who was standing behind Zhu Jintang, and just shook his head and said, "Old lady, she has only been to Xiao Tao's room a few times, how familiar can she and Xiao Tao be?" I've only been to a place a few times, how familiar and how well can I know it? Is she an immortal or a Taoist, why can't anyone else find something that can be seen as soon as it comes to her eyes? ”
When Shen Yuechen heard this, he understood. It turns out that the reason why the Chai family is so angry is not only because she is nosy, but also because she is worried that she is doing bad things behind her back and wants to deliberately frame someone......
Thinking of this, Shen Yuechen couldn't help but shake his head silently in his heart.
When this matter was handled, it was really more troublesome and tangled than expected......
Zhu Jintang was beside him, and couldn't help but be furious: "Second aunt, your words are bloody." Could it be that Yuechen helped you out of suspicion? Hum! It's a pity that you usually think of yourself as an elder, but it's a pity that this age has been lived in vain, and your mouth is powerful, but you are confused, and you can't understand the slightest truth of right and wrong, it's really black and white, and it's ridiculous! ”
As a junior, it is absolutely disrespectful to directly scold her for being confused and ridiculous in front of her elders.
Chai's face was so angry that he turned white, and the old man Zhu on the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he slapped the table again and said, "Shut up for me!" ”
