Chapter 185 Poisoned]

After hearing what Shen Fenghe said, the villagers were stunned and looked at her in surprise.

"Can't eat? Young lady, what do you mean? Why can't I eat it?"

Seeing that her chance to make money was about to be ruined by Chen Fenghe, Gou Zi's mother immediately put her hands on her hips and said, "Why can't we eat it? This stone tastes salty. When it's ground into powder, it becomes salt. You say it can't be eaten, right? Oh! I see! What a coincidence! The seafood merchant who came to the village last night, I'm afraid he colluded with you, young lady, right? His purpose is to trick us all into buying those seafood that looks good but is useless! Now that my family has found cheaper salt, she saw that those seafood can't be sold and can't cheat everyone anymore, so she can't sit still! It must be like this! Don't believe her!"

The village head couldn't help but ask, "Miss Shen, is that really the case?"

Chen Fenghe was a bit amused and confused. Even though she had played the role of the seafood merchant last night, her good intentions had been taken for granted.

She smiled faintly and said:

"Uncle Village Head, I've been exiled all the way here, how could I know any seafood merchant? However, even though I don't know him, I don't think he's cheating you. Putting aside other things, even if you don't eat the seafood you bought, you can still make a lot of money by reselling it in Qingzhou City, right? If this is considered cheating you, then I'll just keep quiet."

After hearing her words, Shen Fenghe couldn't help but laugh and cry.

The village head and other villagers couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing this. "That's right. We can make a lot of money even if we resell these seafood!"

Gouzi's mother looked a little embarrassed and said, "Even if I'm wrong, my salt is good quality and cheap. Even Wenxuan's family bought it and ate it. How can it be inedible?"

Just as Chen Fenghe was about to speak, a shout suddenly came from afar.

"Oh no! Village head! Oh no! Something happened at Wenxuan's house! Everyone, hurry over to Wenxuan's house! Wenxuan suddenly foamed at the mouth and fainted!"

After hearing this, the village head was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly took everyone to Wenxuan's house.

Chen Fenghe frowned slightly. Is he still a step too late? As he thought about it, he followed.

When they arrived at Wenxuan's house, Wenxuan's mother was so frightened that she couldn't even cry. Only when she saw the village head coming did she quickly kneel down and kowtow repeatedly: "Village head, please save Wenxuan! Wenxuan's father is not at home, and I am a woman, what can I do! If Wenxuan is killed, I can't live anymore!"

Everyone gathered around and saw that Wenxuan had indeed fainted completely, with white foam still at the corners of his mouth.

Chen Fenghe took a look and realized that this was the child who had brought them two eggs last night.

The village head was also anxious and asked hurriedly, "Wenxuan's mother, please get up first. Did Wenxuan eat something dirty? He looks like he has an upset stomach... You two should hurry up and drive the ox cart. Let's take little Wenxuan to the town to see a doctor..."

At this point, the village head's eyes suddenly lit up. He turned around and looked at Chen Fenghe, then said, "I almost forgot! Miss Shen is a doctor. Please, Miss Shen, save this child! Wenxuan is sensible and good at his studies. He is a good candidate to become the top scholar in the future!"

Wenxuan's mother heard this and without caring about anything else, she immediately came over and knelt down in front of Shen Fenghe with a thump: "My dear lady, if you can save my Wenxuan, I will be willing to work like a cow or a horse to repay you!"
