Chapter 35: The uproar

"Everyone calm down and listen to me first!"

After greeting everyone, Jiang Xueying calmed her eyes and said slowly, "I know the French fries I make, Jiang Xueying, and there will be no problems. Otherwise, how come I sold so many French fries before, and nothing went wrong? Most of you are strangers, and this is probably your first time here. How come I am the one selling them?"

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect the proprietress to be so eloquent and stumped them with her questions. Just as she said, many people had heard of French fries, but they thought they were a bit expensive and had never bought them. This time they bought them to try because they heard they were very cheap.

A woman immediately shouted, "Don't talk nonsense. We went to the French fry seller and he said that you made these. Who else can make French fries besides you? Did you hear that someone was poisoned and want to deny it because you are afraid of being sued?"

"Don't be angry, ma'am. I'm just telling you the truth. There's nothing wrong with the fries I sell, and I didn't ask anyone else to sell them. Otherwise, why would I open this shop?"

After hearing what she said, the family members became even angrier, thinking that she was shirking responsibility and didn't want to take responsibility. After all, their family members had problems eating French fries, and the seller didn't want to be responsible, so they naturally had to hold Jiang Xueying accountable.

"Don't try to quibble. I bought this from you. Since you made it, it's your responsibility wherever you sell it!"

The old man was very angry, and others followed suit. They insisted that Jiang Xueying made the thing, and so she should pay compensation.

Gradually, many people came to watch the show. They all watched the show with their arms folded, pointing and making a few remarks from time to time.

Jiang Xueying took a quick glance and thought to herself that this wouldn't work. She had to clarify as soon as possible, otherwise it would affect her store's business in the future. After all, so many eyes were watching her.

The next moment, her expression became serious and her tone became heavier.

"The fries I sell are all in bags that I make myself. There are special markings on them. If you don't believe me, just look."

As she spoke, she picked up a paper bag and showed it to them.

"Take a good look at this. This is the mark I made on it. If you bought it from me, bring the paper bag to me. If it is really a problem on my end, I will definitely take the responsibility and give an explanation to the person who ate it with problems!"

Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was powerful.

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other. How could they get the same paper bag? Not to mention that the paper bag that the previous person used to wrap French fries was not as good-looking as this one, the taste was not very good either.

At this point, they had no choice but to tell the truth about what had happened before.

"That person insisted that you made it, and said that no one else could make it except you, so we believed it. After all, we had never heard of French fries or no French fries before."

Another family member answered: "Yes, that man said you asked him to go out and sell it."

Hearing this, Jiang Xueying's face darkened. Sure enough, someone was plotting against her.

She exhaled slowly and said in a deep voice, "In that case, please bring the uneaten fries to me. I've been selling fries for a long time and have never encountered anything like this. I need to get to the bottom of this."

The French fries fried by Zhang Erhu did not taste very good, and there was no special seasoning, so most people did not finish them, so someone soon handed over the unfinished French fries.

Looking at the French fries, Jiang Xueying frowned. It was obvious that they were not fried by her. Her fries were not so bad.

She rummaged through the bag for a while and found it strange. Apart from the unsightly appearance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. Then how come so many people were poisoned? Could something have gone wrong during the frying process?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she suddenly saw something in the gap. When she picked it out, she found it was the stems and leaves of potatoes.

"Who else brought fries? Show them to me too!"

Jiang Xueying wanted to confirm it. If it was only in one bag, then it would be a problem. But if it was in every bag, then it would be a problem.

After checking several bags of French fries one after another, she found that almost every bag was mixed with potato stems and leaves. No wonder she was poisoned. How could she not be poisoned after eating this?

Seeing more and more people being poisoned, not only did more than half of the people buying French fries drop, but there were also fewer people walking on the streets.

Jiang Xueying had not expected the current situation. It would have been fine if these unscrupulous merchants had imitated others, but now they were eating the villagers into this state. Where did they get the potatoes?

But after all, this happened because of her own French fries. Jiang Xueying anxiously thought of a solution in the house, and then her eyes lit up and she rushed straight to the village chief's house.

"Village Chief, the situation is very urgent. In order to prevent something more serious from happening, I need you to do me a favor."

The village chief was also worried about the poisoning of the villagers. After all, he was a member of the same village. He saw that the villagers' condition was getting worse and worse, and he had been worried for several days. Now that he heard that Jiang Xueying had a way to solve the problem, he was naturally the first to agree with it.

"Daughter-in-law of the Ye family, please tell me quickly. As long as I can save the villagers, I will definitely help you with all my strength."

Jiang Xueying nodded and asked the village chief to gather all the poisoned residents to his house. She then went to her own chicken coop and collected a lot of chicken manure.

When she entered the village chief's house with a bag of chicken manure, the gathered villagers covered their noses and frowned.

"What on earth are we here for? Aren't there any ways to cure the patient's current symptoms?"

Jiang Xueying poured the chicken manure into the large vat she had prepared long ago, and then burned it vigorously. She nodded with satisfaction when it was burned to ashes and soaked in water to drink, which has the effect of inducing vomiting and laxative.

Poisoning from accidentally ingesting potato stems and leaves is not a big deal but it is not a small matter either. Just spit out all the poisonous substances and you will be fine.

After all, there are no advanced drugs and gastric lavage techniques now, so we can only use this method, and then slowly recuperate later.

After adding water to the burnt chicken manure, Jiang Xueying divided the water into the amount of villagers who were poisoned.

"Everyone come and take one and drink it. Just spit out the poisonous substance and it will be fine."

The method of detoxification was right in front of them, but the villagers were unwilling to drink it. They looked at each other in confusion, and some even started vomiting on the spot. It must be said that this method of detoxification was really disgusting.

"Are you sure this method works? I've lived for so many years and I've never seen anyone use chicken manure to detoxify. It's disgusting."

The other villagers were obviously also concerned about this. Asking them to drink animal feces, even though it had been burned, would make them feel extremely uncomfortable. Moreover, they could smell the pungent odor when they picked up the bowl. How could they drink it?
