Chapter 219 It's good that you're alive
Jiang Zhizhi is the kind of person who likes to ask questions, so she threw a string of questions at Zhou Xiye.
Zhou Xiye also had no clue: "Let's wait and see. By the way, our meeting is about to end in the next couple of days, and Vice Minister Shang and the others will be returning to Shanghai. Would you like to meet with them?"
Jiang Zhizhi thought about it seriously: "It's better not to, to avoid causing unnecessary trouble."
After all, the Bian family's matter has caused quite a stir this time, so it's better to keep things quiet to avoid causing trouble for Shang Shiyi and the others.
Zhou Xiye agreed: "I'll find an opportunity to talk to Vice Minister Shang. There will always be opportunities in the future."
Jiang Zhizhi then thought of Song Man: "I wonder how Sister Song Man is doing. If we still have time after dinner, let's go check on her."
Zhou Xiye had no objection. When the two arrived home, only Fang Hua was there.
Seeing the two return, Fang Hua wiped away her tears and said, "We didn't cook dinner at home tonight. You two can go to the cafeteria for something to eat, or you can cook something for yourselves."
Seeing that Fang Hua's eyes were red and swollen and her voice was hoarse, Jiang Zhizhi realized that she had been crying at home for a while. She quickly took off her coat and handed it to Zhou Xiye, then went over and took Fang Hua's arm: "Mom, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
Fang Hua wiped away her tears with a handkerchief: "Xiao Chuan's hands still can't be diagnosed with anything wrong. Today, it started to appear on his wrist, growing layer by layer, and it's starting to hurt."
I had already cried once in the afternoon, and now that I saw Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi come back, I couldn't help but shed tears again.
Jiang Zhizhi asked in surprise, "How can this be so strange? The hospital still can't diagnose it?"
Fang Hua shook his head: "We've also invited experts to come and take a look. They suspect it's poisoning, but they don't know what kind of poison it is, so they don't know how to detoxify it. When we asked Xiao Chuan what he came into contact with, he couldn't say either."
Seeing Fang Hua like this, Jiang Zhizhi also became anxious. Although Zhou Xiaochuan was a scoundrel, Fang Hua had treated her well, and she didn't want to see Fang Hua sad.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Mom, don't worry. As long as we know it's poisoning, there's always a way to treat it. If all else fails, ask a few more doctors."
Fang Hua sighed: "Your dad went out to find some old doctors to come and take a look. He's still at the hospital right now. I was feeling really unwell, so I came back to sit for a while."
With tears in her eyes, she looked at Zhou Xiye and said, "Xiye, you have to think of something. Although Xiaochuan has been going too far lately, he is still your brother. We can't just stand by and watch him suffer."
Jiang Zhizhi suddenly stood up and pulled Zhou Xiye: "Come on, let's think of a solution."
As he spoke, he walked outside, grabbed his coat, and put it on.
Zhou Xiye could only hurry up and catch up, not quite understanding what Jiang Zhizhi could do.
The two went out, and Jiang Zhizhi said with a tense face, "Go find Brother Song Dong. I want to see Bian Yucheng."
Zhou Xiye frowned: "This is against the rules, and he is a key suspect now. What you're doing will cause trouble for Brother Song."
Jiang Zhizhi clenched her fists: "So we're just going to wait like this? If Xiao Chuan's poison really came from Bian Yucheng, then if we keep waiting like this, Zhou Xiao Chuan will die!"
Zhou Xiye remained calm: "We don't have any evidence right now. Even if we go to Bian Yucheng, he won't admit it."
Jiang Zhizhi gritted her teeth in anger: "Then beat him until he admits it. You can't reason with someone like Bian Yucheng."
Zhou Xiye brushed the snowflakes off Jiang Zhizhi's bangs: "I'll go talk to Brother Song and ask him to keep an eye on this matter. In any case, we can't let Brother Song get involved. If it really is poison, then there is an antidote."
Jiang Zhizhi gripped Zhou Xiye's fingers, her eyes lighting up: "Wang Xiaoliu! Go find someone to investigate Wang Xiaoliu's uncle, and why doesn't Wang Xiaoliu look down on Zhou Xiaochuan? Could they really be good friends?"
Zhou Xiye instantly understood Jiang Zhizhi's suspicions: "What do you plan to do?"
Jiang Zhizhi wrinkled her nose and snorted, "Since we're in such a passive position right now, let's break the deadlock and take the initiative! Then we'll test Wang Xiaoliu's reaction."
Zhou Xiye knew Jiang Zhizhi had many tricks up her sleeve, and he couldn't figure her out: "You have a plan?"
Jiang Zhizhi raised her chin: "Doesn't Zhou Xiaochuan hate me? Then let him hate me even more, I don't care anyway! Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it!"
After saying that, she excitedly grabbed Zhou Xiye's hand and said, "I'll go tell Mom that we're going out to eat, and while we're at it, we'll go see Sister Song Man at the hospital, and then we'll go see Zhou Xiaochuan."
Before Zhou Xiye could even speak, Jiang Zhizhi had already turned and run home. She opened the door, said something to Fang Hua, and then ran out again, grabbing Zhou Xiye's hand: "Come on, let's go eat first."
The two went to the canteen in the courtyard and ordered two servings of dumpling soup with dried sesame leaves and two multigrain steamed buns. Pickled vegetables were provided free of charge.
When dried sesame leaves are cooked in dumpling soup, they have a unique aroma that Jiang Zhizhi can accept.
While eating, a question suddenly popped into my head: "Will my dad come back after he finishes at the nursing home?"
Zhou Xiye nodded: "They will come back, but they may not stay in the old house and will be assigned a new one."
Jiang Zhizhi didn't care where they lived; what she cared about was that Sun Xiaoyue could also return to the compound: "That idiot Zhou Xiaochuan is a loyal follower of Sun Xiaoyue. If he finds out that Sun Xiaoyue is coming back, there will probably be some excitement."
Zhou Xiye frowned. He hadn't really thought about this issue before, and Jiang Zhizhi's words gave him a headache: "I'll go talk to him..."
Jiang Zhizhi quickly reached out to stop her: "Don't mention it. If you do, Zhou Xiaochuan will hate you. If Sun Xiaoyue wants to use Zhou Xiaochuan, then we'll wait and see how she slips up and brings out the people behind her! That way, we'll have to sacrifice Zhou Xiaochuan a bit."
"Anyway, he's stupid, so he deserves to suffer."
Seeing Jiang Zhizhi's sullen expression, Zhou Xiye finally reminded her, "He trusts Sun Xiaoyue, so don't let him do anything even more foolish."
Jiang Zhizhi twitched the corner of her lips: "It's hard to say."
After the two ate, they went to the hospital to see Song Man first.
In a private hospital room, Song Man lay on the bed. Already thin, she looked even thinner. Her face was pale, and she was shrouded in white bedding, looking as frail as a paper doll.
Chen Limin sat on the edge of the bed, peeling an apple and grumbling. When she saw Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi come in, she quickly stood up: "Xiye, Zhizhi, you're here. Come and talk to her. She won't drink a drop of water. Is she trying to drive me crazy?"
Song Man turned to look at Jiang Zhizhi, a tear welling up from the corner of her eye and sliding down her cheek into her hair.
Jiang Zhizhi felt a tightness in her chest and quickly went over: "Sister Song Man, we've come to see you."
Chen Limin continued, "The doctor said she could eat some thin food after a while, but she won't even open her mouth when I put porridge right in front of her lips. I..."
She started crying, feeling wronged: "Am I your mother? Am I your class enemy? Why do you hate me so much!"
Jiang Zhizhi interrupted Chen Limin, saying, "Auntie, you go out first. I want to talk to Sister Song Man."
Then, looking at Zhou Xiye, he said, "You go see Xiao Chuan first, I'll come find you in a bit!"
