Chapter 900: Growing up with a cunning heart
"You're making such a big fuss, aren't you afraid that ungrateful Mo Wenjing will find out?" Xi Lin grabbed a handful of peanuts and handed them to Song Yanxi, and couldn't help but glance at Mo Jinchuan.
Obviously, he felt that this method was too risky and not reliable enough.
Give him some time, maybe he can come up with a more appropriate solution.
Mo Jinchuan stretched his still weak wrist and asked coldly, "Do you really think that the fourth brother will believe that I'm dead?"
Xi Lin tutted his words twice. "You old Mo family members are all like cunning people. He might not believe it until he sees the body."
Thinking of something, he looked at Song Yanxi who was diligently peeling peanuts next to him, "What about you? Are you fooling around just because he's fooling around?"
Song Yanxi didn't even raise her head, "Doctor Xi, are you asking me?"
Having hit a snag, Xi Lin said awkwardly, "I finally understand. I definitely owed you two in my past life, so I'm here to pay you back in this life."
He leaned back in his chair and sighed, "The second day of missing my little, sweet disciple."
As he spoke, he rubbed his belly and said, "I'm sorry for making you suffer by following me."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the main door.
The voice of Wang's sister-in-law rang out, "Doctor Xi, the second uncle asked me to bring you some food."
"Sending us food?" Xi Lin said with a smile, "Could it be that they put some drugs in there and wanted to send us away?"
Hearing this, Wang's sister-in-law immediately became anxious, "We dare not do that. We are still waiting for the antidote from Doctor Xi. If something happens to you, we will not survive."
No one was not afraid of death, especially the panicked people crowded in the yard, who wished they could run to Xi Lin and dig out their hearts to show him.
Their lives depend on his decision.
Xi Lin thought about it and said lazily, "Come in."
The door opened again, and Wang's sister-in-law came in with a daughter-in-law from the same family, with two trays filled to the brim.
Not only were there both meat and vegetarian dishes, but there was even a pot of wine, which was extremely thoughtful.
Wang's sister-in-law had regained her composure by now, no longer showing her previous arrogance. With a smile on her face, she said, "The door is closed and we can't get out, so we can only use the meat and vegetables we have in the kitchen. Please don't be disgusted."
She exchanged a glance with her companions, and while arranging the dishes, she pretended to ask casually, "Divine Doctor Xi, I just saw Xian'er's mother hurried out. Did she go to do something for you guys?"
As she spoke, she quickly added, "Please don't be angry, everyone. I just asked that question. If you're unhappy, just pretend I never said anything."
Xi Lin sat down at the table nonchalantly. "Ask ahead. If you have anything else to ask, please ask quickly. Don't delay our meal."
The Wang family's sister-in-law rolled her eyes and asked boldly, "Divine Doctor Xi, it's almost dark. I'm afraid Xian'er's mother won't be back today. Why don't you let everyone go back to bed first?"
Xi Lin invited Mo Jinchuan and Song Yanxi to sit down, and said without raising his head: "If you are tired, go back to sleep. The Wang family doesn't have that many beds for you to lie down on."
Hearing this, the two people who delivered the food were ecstatic, and Wang's sister-in-law couldn't wait to say, "That's great. Doctor Xi, please quickly take out the antidote."
Xi Lin looked at her, "Antidote?"
Mrs. Wang hurriedly nodded, and her daughter-in-law who was traveling with her also nodded.
Under the expectant gazes of the two, Xi Lin looked at Song Yanxi who was sitting opposite him and said, "Doctor Song, since they are so sincere, give them half of the antidote."
"What? Just give half?" Wang's sister-in-law suddenly became anxious.
Xi Lin raised his eyebrows, "Why, you don't want it?"
Seeing that Song Yanxi had no intention of taking the antidote, the people traveling with her hurriedly said, "Yes, of course you don't want the antidote."
She exchanged a glance with Wang's sister-in-law, her mouth almost stretched to her ears.
Just before coming here, they had already discussed that even if they could only get the antidote for two or three people, their trip would not be in vain.
As soon as they got the antidote, they let several young and strong men take it first, and then rushed in to pin down and tie up the three men.
Once the person falls into their hands, are you still afraid that they won’t hand over the antidote?
Wang Mao said that the man Wang Xian'er picked up had some martial arts skills. Wang Erleng still hasn't woken up after the kick he gave him.
There's no telling what lives are still on his hands.
If they were to capture the person and hand him over to the government, wouldn't they get a huge reward?
Just thinking about it made the two of them so excited that they could hardly stand.
But when they saw clearly that Song Yanxi had only poured out one pill, the smile on their faces instantly disappeared.
Wang's sister-in-law spoke first, "What do you mean? If you don't want to give me the antidote, then don't give it. Are you giving one to get rid of a beggar?"
The person accompanying her hurriedly tugged at her arm and whispered, "Sister-in-law, one is fine. It's better than nothing."
"Bullshit!" Wang's sister-in-law wanted to curse.
The young wife had been married for a short time and didn't know the situation of each household in the village, but she knew a little bit.
Most of those young men who were in good health and strong were drafted during the military conscription a few years ago.
The rest are hardworking and down-to-earth. During the slack season, they either work as servants in the town or go out to make a living.
Those who could still stay in the village at this time were either the old and the young, or scoundrels like Wang Mao and Wang Erleng who did not do the right thing.
It's okay to let them eat and drink, but they can't do any serious work.
Without three or five people to give them courage, they wouldn't even dare to enter the room.
It’s better to rely on herself than to rely on those cowards.
The Wang family's sister-in-law became angrier and angrier as she thought about it. She gritted her teeth and decided to take the pill herself and then find an opportunity to run away and report to the police.
She quickly reached out, snatched the pill from Song Yanxi's hand and was about to walk out.
Xi Lin seemed to see through her thoughts and reminded her, "This antidote is enough for thirty people.
If someone accidentally eats it, they will explode and die."
After hearing the last few words, Song Yanxi silently clenched the porcelain bottle.
Sure enough, Princess Roujia was not the only one who loved reading picture books.
Sometimes, she really wanted to pry open Xi Lin's head and see what was inside.
Anyone who knows a little about medicine wouldn't be fooled by his nonsense.
Mrs. Wang looked at the pill in her hand, her eyes widening. "How can such a small thing kill someone?"
Xi Lin smiled slightly and said, "If you don't believe me, you can try it."
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang wanted to throw away the pills in her hand.
She rolled her eyes and couldn't help cursing, "You young man, your words are really rude. Why don't you try this deadly thing yourself?"
Knowing that Xi Lin had no good intentions, she quickly looked at Song Yanxi and asked, "Doctor Song, how do I take this medicine?"
It's impossible for everyone to just sit there and watch this pill, right?
If this could be effective just by looking at it, then it would truly be the panacea described in the book.
Song Yanxi suppressed her laughter and explained, "Dissolve it in a bowl of water. Each person who is poisoned can drink a sip. Don't take more than that."
Mrs. Wang looked at the porcelain bottle in her hand and asked, "What if she drinks too much and only takes two sips?"
