Chapter 48
After listening to shopkeeper Wu's description, Gu Nanyan sighed.

I think it's better to tell the Liu family about this matter first, and then decide whether to tell the Liu Cheng family.

After thanking Shopkeeper Wu, she saw that there was nothing else going on in the store, and was discouraged by the Qian family, so she thought about going back earlier.

There are not many people in the store, most of them come in out of curiosity.

Gu Nanyan was not in a hurry either.

Doing business has always relied on customers to lead customers. Today is only the first day, and it would be good if someone buys it.

In ancient times where communication and transportation were underdeveloped, news spread very slowly.

When those in need know that there is such a place as "Fruit and Heavenly Fragrance", they will naturally come to the door.

Gu Yueju adapted quickly, and with Cui Yao watching, her business became more and more proficient.

Gu Nanyan handed over the store to the two of them with confidence, and went back.

When I arrived at the entrance of the village, I happened to see Widow Zhang walking out of the village.

She saw Gu Nanyan and others walking up to say hello with a smile.

"Aunt Liu just came back from town." Widow Zhang glanced at Gu Nanyan.

"I've heard that your family, Nanyan, is really promising. You have opened a store in the town. Is the business going well?"

Mrs. Liu was not warm to her, and only smiled lightly.

"How can I, an old woman, understand this? Are you going out?"

Widow Zhang's eyes flashed, and she laughed dryly.

"Yeah, I'm out of food here, I want to go to the town to buy some."

After that, he bowed his head and left.

Gu Nanyan looked at her back suspiciously, saw her hurrying, didn't think much, got off the ox cart and headed home.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, Dou Bi's rough voice came out anxiously.

"Hurry up, go get the water again, and make sure he spits it out!"

Gu Nanyan felt bad when she heard the words, and walked into the yard quickly, and saw Dou Bi hugging Zhao'er with a small black face, pouring water into his mouth.

Aunt Cui exclaimed, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug her son.

"What's the matter, why is Zhao'er's face such a color."

Dou Bi frowned: "I don't know, I just played at the gate of the courtyard for a while, and it was like this when I came in."

"I looked at him as if he had been poisoned by a snake, but I didn't find a wound on him."

If you get snake venom without a wound, you have eaten something unclean.

Thinking of seeing the panicked back of Widow Zhang at the entrance of the village, Gu Nanyan's eyes turned cold.

At this time, she didn't think too much in a hurry, first she felt Zhao'er's pulse, and at the same time exchanged some antivenom from the turntable.

Seeing that she was holding a strange needle, Dou Bi was about to prick Zhao'er, so he stretched out his hand to block it.

"what are you doing!"

The little prince was already suffering enough, how could Miss Gu prick him with a needle.

Without even looking at him, Gu Nanyan stretched out his other hand to grab Dou Bi's skirt and threw him out.

Then quickly inject the serum into Zhao'er's body.

"You, you dare to abuse the prince in front of the emperor, Gu Nanyan, you..."

He was about to reprimand Gu Nanyan for being bold, but was interrupted by Li Mi with a livid face.

"To shut up!"

Li Mi knew Gu Nanyan's ability, even though the genius doctor Dou was invited by the ninth brother, he was still more willing to trust her.

But Liu and the others were dumbfounded when they heard Dou Bi's words.

What Huang Shang Huang Zi, do they have a surname Huang here?
Aunt Cui burst into tears holding her unconscious son, why did her child suffer so many disasters, tuberculosis just happened, and then he was poisoned again.

Bai Shi silently wiped her tears from the side.

They are all mothers. If it was Li Xu who fell here today, she might not be much better than Aunt Cui.

Li Xu was sitting on the side crying right now, he blamed himself for not taking good care of his younger brother.

Bai patted his head and said, "Xu'er is not afraid, with your sister Nan here, Zhao'er will be fine."

Seeing that Li Xu's mood improved a lot after hearing Gu Nanyan, Bai knelt down and looked at him at the same level.

"Tell mother why my brother is like this."

Zhao'er and Li Xu have been inseparable since they came to Shangshan Village. If something happened in the middle, he should know.

Li Xu glanced at his mother blankly, and said, sobbing, "I don't know, Zhao'er and I played with beanbags at the door for a while and then came back."

Gu Nanyan sewed the sandbags for them. Although the needle points were messy, the two children liked it very much.

Bai smiled, wiped away the teardrops on his face, and asked persuasively, "Did anything happen during that time, or did you meet any strangers?"

Li Xu shook his head hesitantly: "There are no strangers, only an aunt from the village has been here."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the pastries that had been squashed on the ground.

"She gave each of us a piece of pastry, but I didn't eat it, so I was recruited."

Seeing that Zhao'er seemed to like that snack very much, he gave him his own.

He is an older brother, and he should let his younger brother eat something delicious.

They're not short on pastries though.

Gu Nanyan often bought some snacks for them, and even made a small cloth bag for them to hang on their bodies.

Seeing that Zhao'er's face recovered a bit, Gu Nanyan picked up the crumbs on the ground, put them on the tip of her nose and sniffed them.

"It's the venom of the cobra." There was a chill in her voice.

The finch-tailed snake is a venomous snake endemic to the south, named for its tail-like finch-tail.

This kind of poison is not common, and she knew it because someone had been poisoned by it when she was in the General's Mansion.

This poison tastes colorless and tasteless, but it has a very faint special smell.

The original body was able to remember this smell because this body was born with a keen sense of smell.

Their Shangshan Village is located in the north, and there is no bird-tailed snake infested, so the poison was deliberately put in the pastry.

Gu Nanyan squinted her eyes, not thinking about it for the time being.

She carried Zhao'er into the back room and put anti-inflammatory drip on him.

Aunt Cui saw that the blackness on her son's face had faded, and now he was only a little pale, and her heart was half relieved.

What followed was a surge of anger.

Zhao'er was obviously poisoned on purpose!

She lived too comfortably in Gu's family and forgot to be cautious in the palace, which is why Zhao'er suffered such a serious crime.

After Gu Nanyan settled Zhao'er, she went to Widow Zhang's house with a chill all over her body. Unexpectedly, the door of her house was locked, and Widow Zhang and Lao Liu Zhou were not in the house.

She kicked open the courtyard door and smashed everything that could be smashed inside, even the courtyard wall.

When the neighbors saw that it was Gu Nanyan, they all shrank their heads and dared not go out, and only peeked through the cracks in the door.

The village chief hurried over after hearing the news, and rubbed his forehead when he saw the mess in the courtyard.

This widow Zhang loves to chew people's tongues when she has nothing to do. I'm afraid she might offend Gu Yatou by saying something wrong.

Although he really didn't want to deal with this matter, as the village head, since he saw it, he couldn't just ignore it.

"Girl Gu, why are you so angry, but Mrs. Zhang made you angry?"

There was no warmth in Gu Nanyan's eyes. She looked at the village chief and said calmly: "Ms. Zhang poisoned my whole family with the intention of harming my family. I want to report to the authorities!"

The village head was shocked, so serious? !
"This...is there a misunderstanding?"

If he believed that Lao Liu was poisoned that week, how could a woman like Zhang have the courage?
Gu Nanyan sneered when he heard the words: "Is it a misunderstanding? I'll find out when I go to court."

After she finished speaking, she ignored the surprised eyes of the people around her and kicked the wall, half of the house collapsed in an instant.

Looking at Gu Nanyan's murderous back, the village chief wiped off his cold sweat.

Then I remembered that when the banquet was held at her house, the magistrate personally came to congratulate her, and the cold sweat broke out even more.

Gu Nanyan is not someone who is aimless. Since she said that Widow Zhang poisoned her and wanted to report to the police, there must be such a thing.

He couldn't help looking in disgust at the courtyard where there was only half a corner left.

This widow Zhang is really a disaster, if she had known about it, she would have been kicked out of Shangshan Village.

This is a good thing, if the news of the poisoning of the villagers is spread, the village chiefs of other villages don't know how to gloat.

The reputation of their village is also going to be bad!

Thinking that the village chief is even more annoying to Widow Zhang.

He doesn't care about this matter anymore, if he can do such vicious things that hurt people's lives, even if his head is beheaded, he is no different.

Gu Nanyan didn't delay when she left Widow Zhang's house, and after talking to Mrs. Liu, she went to the Yamen to report to the officials.

She doesn't know whether the person behind the scenes is coming for her or Li Mi, but since she dares to hurt the person she protects under her nose, she must be prepared to bear her anger!
 In order to save the manuscript, I planned to stay up late, and I drank two tanks of strong tea in one breath, feeling flustered_(:з」∠)_
