Chapter 847 I am innocent, what fear

The doctor checked it several times before putting down the tools, bowed to Chu Taiping, and said with a rather embarrassed expression, "Master Chu."

He just yelled but didn't continue, Chu Taiping was very anxious about Chu Man's cigarette poisoning, but the doctor was hesitant to speak, which really frightened him, but in front of many guests, he couldn't lose everyone's demeanor, I had no choice but to restrain my eagerness, and said calmly, "You just say it's okay, I won't blame you."

With Chu Taiping's affirmation, the doctor slowly said, "This medicine is called Five Elements Grass, which is both poisonous and medicinal. It is usually only sold as a small tonic in various medicine shops. If Five Elements Grass is mixed with seafood, it will cause severe abdominal pain. , the legs and feet are weak, and if it is mild, it will not be able to get out of bed for a few days, and if it is severe, it may directly cause death. Judging from Miss Fifth's symptoms, it does not seem to be serious, and it should not be a serious problem after a few days of recuperation."

Hearing the doctor said that there is no serious problem, Chu Taiping's hanging heart eased a little, as long as the person is fine.However, the explanation of the medicine clearly does not mean that Chu Taiping forgave the poisoner by the way. Chu Taiping's expression relaxed for a while, and then he raised his face again, "How did the poison get in there? Xixi, she might put it in." Is it poisonous?"

What Chu Taiping is most concerned about is actually the latter issue. The last thing he wants to see is that his family members turn against each other.

"The poison needs to be injected before the seafood is killed, and then the medicinal properties can be melted into the meat juice when it is cooked. The poisoning of the fifth lady is not deep, and the medicinal properties are not strong. It must be injected after cooking." The doctor still lowered his head. He said quickly, "I have just experienced that Miss San's bowls and chopsticks are not poisonous, so if you want to track down the person who poisoned it, you should go to the kitchen and ask the chef who has touched this dish."

Chu Xixi wisely didn't answer, since the doctor had already proved her innocence, she didn't need to say anything more.Chu Manyan rolled around on the ground in pain, the originally exquisite hair accessories were scattered all over the floor, and the lively bun was also rolled down, so it was really messy.The clothes have been stained with dust, here and there, in a mess.

The sharp pain in her abdomen prevented her from caring about her clothes, and she gasped for breath to relieve the pain.I thought I could use this to drive Chu Xixi out of Chu's residence, but when I heard the doctor say this, I was anxious, and I didn't care about my own pain, so I yelled at Chu Taiping, who looked relaxed, "Father, my daughter thinks she has no enemies." , you know your daughter's character, how could someone want to harm me? Unless some people want to take your favor from me!"

"Some people" pointed clearly. If it was the other three sisters of the Chu family, they should have done it long ago. Why did they wait until now, so the only thing left was the third lady who had just been picked up from the countryside.

"Could it be her?" Someone whispered in the crowd, the voice was not high, but when everyone was silent, it happened that everyone could hear it.

"I heard that I learned to gamble when I was in the country, and I was almost sold to a brothel..." another person continued.

The memory that had been deliberately sealed was turned up without warning, and Chu Taiping felt a pain in his heart. Originally, this incident had been almost forgotten under the efforts of Chu Xixi, but he did not expect that it would be brought up again at this juncture, and it would promote public opinion. .

Chu Xixi glanced sideways at Chu Manlian, who was secretly proud of herself. She noticed that the two people who spoke just now didn't look like guests from a banquet. The two men had mischievous eyebrows, and they hid themselves in the crowd when they talked.Because of the conversation between the two, the guests all thought of the bad rumor, and the expressions on their faces suddenly became richer. Although they still had an air of nothing to do with themselves, they looked at Chu Xixi.Consciously or unintentionally, I became more suspicious.

About that rumor, Mo Shuang had heard bits and pieces, and it was all told to his mother when his seven aunts and eight aunts came to visit, and sometimes he just listened to it when he was nearby.But he didn't believe it.There is such a thing as a rumor, if you believe it, there is, if you don't believe it, there is no.He has always believed that when you know a person, you should talk to him and study them carefully, instead of just listening to someone's one-sided words.

Mo Shuang watched the development of the situation quietly, Chu Xixi's calmness was beyond his imagination, or rather, her mind was beyond her age.What he is more interested in now is how she can get rid of her crime.He stared at Chu Xixi with interest, but Chu Xixi glanced at Chu Manlian and then turned to look at Chu Taiping.

Chu Taiping was obviously incited by those words, his face blushed and then turned blue, turned blue and turned black, and finally turned ashen and looked at Chu Xixi.Chu Xixi was dressed plainly and stood there thin and small. If she didn't have her own arrogance, someone would probably regard her as a servant's child.

When Chu Taiping looked over, Chu Xixi could clearly see the suspicion in his eyes. Although he said he didn't care, it was his father after all. Now that he was so indifferent, it was impossible to say that he wasn't chilling.

Chu Xixi looked at Chu Taiping stubbornly, without avoiding the slightest bit, and his bright eyes were frank, neither sad nor happy, and there was no grievance or resentment towards being suspected.

Chu Taiping was dazed for a moment. There was nothing in this child's eyes. In this situation, he was still so calm and composed. He couldn't help thinking, what kind of things did Chu Xixi go through in the countryside that made her feel happy? Extraordinary maturity.

"Did you poison it?" But in Chu Taiping's eyes, Chu Xixi was just a child after all. After a short daze, Chu Taiping walked up to Chu Xixi, squatted down, and tried to show a loving appearance.There was some coaxing in what he said.

Chu Xixi sneered from the bottom of her heart, but she had a timid look on her face, "It's not me... my sister said she wanted to eat shrimp, but she couldn't reach it, so I picked one for her." Now Chu Xixi, except for her mother, is weak , she is already indestructible, if you want to deceive her even a little bit, it will be foolish.Now, she is going to return ten times and a hundred times what they have done to her.

When Chu Taiping heard what Chu Xixi said, he felt a little relieved and happy. Seeing that something was wrong, Chu Manlian quickly stood up, squeezed her tears, and cried, "Daddy, my sister is in so much pain!!—" Chu Manyan winked, Chu Manyan was already rolling all over the floor in pain, but now that she got instructions from Chu Manlian, she became even more exaggerated. For a while, there was no sound of silk and bamboo at the banquet, and there were only two daughters of the Chu family competing with each other. crying miserably.

Chu Taiping frowned indistinctly, Chu Xixi keenly caught his flash of boredom, she was waiting for this moment, Chu Xixi rubbed her eyes, pretending to wipe her tears, the delicate skin around her eyes instantly turned red, she Slowly took a step forward, and tugged at the corner of Chu Taiping's clothes.

Chu Taiping felt it, looked down at her, and saw a pair of red eyes looking at him, with indescribable grievances, Chu Xixi sniffed, "Daddy, sister says it's me, don't worry..."

He walked up to Chu Manyan again, and made a gesture to help her. Chu Manyan would not let her touch him. Even though his abdomen was still hurting, he stretched out a hand and pushed Chu Xixi. Chu Xixi sprained his foot, lost his footing, and fell to the ground.

Chu Taiping hurried forward and helped Chu Xixi up. Chu Xixi looked at Chu Taiping and sobbed softly, "Daddy, I just want to help my sister up. Daddy, you can just treat me as me. Let's continue to celebrate my brother. I'm not feeling well, you can punish me after the banquet is over."
