The Forensic Doctor's Daughter-in-law

Chapter 432 Orchid Silk Handkerchief
When Dou Zihan inspected the gardener's leg, another thought suddenly came to her mind, that is, is the cause of the gardener's leg injury related to his motive for killing?
Since the gardener is dead, it is necessary to check the roots of the gardener. Only through the background song of the gardener's background can we find new clues. When the county magistrate inquired, the manager of the Fang family reported the origin of the gardener without even thinking about it.

Because this gardener was not hired through Ren Yazi, nor was it recruited by the Fang family, but Mrs. Fang brought it back to Fang's mansion when she went out a few years ago.

It is said that the gardener is also kind to the old lady Fang, but the Fang family is not clear about the specific situation, not even the head of the Fang family.

But it would be inappropriate to ask Mrs. Fang now. Mrs. Fang's heart disease is already a long-standing problem. Under the joint treatment of Dou Zihan and the invited doctor, the condition has been temporarily controlled, and there is no life-threatening condition for the time being. up.

But this kind of illness can't bear any big psychological blow. Therefore, after the gardener was arrested and committed suicide by taking poison, Mayor Fang hoped that Mr. Li and County Magistrate Xu would not disturb Mrs. Fang. It was fear. When Mrs. Fang knew that the person she brought back might be the murderer of Mrs. Fang, her mood fluctuated greatly, and she was once again in danger.

Although County Magistrate Xu and Young Master Li wanted to find out clues from the gardener's identity and background, they had to be concerned about the old lady Fang's body. Said, the poisoning incident of the third aunt.

After Dou Zihan inspected the dead body of the gardener who committed suicide by poisoning himself, he was invited by the third aunt's maid to the third aunt's room.Although Dou Zihan prescribed a prescription yesterday and suggested that the Fang family ask other doctors to take a look, but the Fang family now has a kind of blind worship for Dou Zihan's medical skills.

When Dou Zihan arrived at the third aunt's room, the poisoning condition of the third aunt had stabilized and she was awake, but her spirit seemed a little weak.

The mushroom soup that San Yiniang used yesterday, from the kitchen to San Yiniang's room, a total of five people were involved in it, including the steward who bought fresh mushrooms in the kitchen, the cook who made the mushroom soup, the maid who lit the fire, and the food delivery. The servant girl, finally in the hands of the third aunt.

Now, these people have been separated by the county magistrate Xu, but the results of the interrogation are not satisfactory. The servants who bought them insisted that he has been responsible for buying them for so many years, and it is impossible for him to be unable to distinguish between poisonous mushrooms and non-poisonous mushrooms. In order to prove his innocence, he also specially found witnesses to prove that when he bought mushrooms, other people bought the same mushrooms from the same store. of.

The people in the kitchen also testified that the manager in charge of purchasing, although sometimes the price of vegetables may be raised, some extra money, the quality of the items that can be purchased has always been guaranteed, and there has never been any mistake before. There is nothing abnormal in his recent words and deeds, so the suspicion of buying should be ruled out.

Eliminating the suspicion of buying, the rest is the cook and the girl who burns the fire. This cook is also an old cook in the Fang family for many years. It is common sense to distinguish whether mushrooms are poisonous, let alone something wrong. The suspect is her, so anyone who is not too stupid will not do the stupid thing of using poisonous ingredients in their own meals.

Although the cook's complexion is very bad, she firmly denies that she used poisonous materials, not to mention that the cook is a servant of the Fang family, and the cook's mother was once the dowry maid of Mrs. Fang , she didn't have the need or the motivation to poison an aunt who just walked in.

Moreover, her husband is also the shopkeeper of a shop of the Fang family, and there is no suspicious identity background. It seems that the suspicion of the cook can be ruled out, not to mention that when the cook is making soup, there are always other people in the kitchen. people.

As for the fire-burning maid, she was only keeping the fire in the kitchen when the cook was away, but the fire-burning maid was really a dull-looking person with relatively dull daily behavior, and she had been in Fangfu for more than two years. He has been doing some chores in the kitchen, and he doesn't interact with anyone on weekdays, so naturally he can't say that he has any grudges with San Yiniang.

Judging from the eyes, there is nothing suspicious about this burning girl, but after all, no one can prove that this burning girl is innocent, so this burning girl is temporarily locked up.

In addition to the fire-burning girl, the woman who delivered the food in the kitchen and the maid next to San Yiniang also had the opportunity to touch the mushroom soup. The servant girl also took out the food in front of Third Auntie, and in the end, the most suspicious ones became the kitchen fire girl and the woman who delivered the food.

But the two of them didn't look like suspects on the surface. The Fang family also sent people to search the room where these people lived, but nothing suspicious was found.People can only be guarded temporarily.

When San Yiniang saw Dou Zihan coming in, she struggled to stand up and greet Dou Zihan, but was stopped by Dou Zihan's hand. She didn't care about these vain manners, so she took her pulse for San Yiniang. Compared with yesterday, Naturally, it is much better, but it will take a while to get rid of the residual poison on this body.

When she entered the third aunt's room yesterday, Dou Zihan didn't have time to carefully observe the layout of the third aunt's room. Now she looked around inadvertently, just like the first impression she gave her of the third aunt's room yesterday. The current room is still the same Especially when Dou Zihan discovered that San Yiniang seemed to be a person who liked flowers and plants very much, there were several potted flowers on the window sill of this room, as well as on the antique shelves. The varieties of these potted flowers were very single, and all of them were orchids.

Orchids have always been known as gentlemen among flowers. Judging from these pots of orchids, the third concubine is obviously a person who likes orchids very much. Staring at those pots of orchids, Dou Zihan seemed to have something flashed in his mind. So fast that she didn't catch it in time.

"What are you looking at, madam?" Third Aunt sat on the bed with her back leaning on a pillow, noticing Dou Zihan's gaze, she asked.

"Oh, nothing? I just took a look." Dou Zihan turned around and smiled lightly.

"The concubine's room is arranged randomly, Madam, you are laughing at me." The third aunt said upon hearing this.

"Third aunt, you are more polite. You are much more elegant than my wife. I can see that you are also a woman with a beautiful heart." However, a woman like third aunt is a beauty, so why would she want to be a concubine for a man? ?Although Dou Zihan was slandering her in her heart, she could only think about it in her heart, and she absolutely couldn't say it in front of Third Auntie.
