Chapter 195
Based on Boss Shen's understanding of Liu Suniang, she is really capable of doing something to take her life.
That person is unreasonable. She doesn't care who the murderer is. She will take away anyone she doesn't like.
Tian Bajiao yawned, "What should I do then? How about I go find two masters to perform a ritual tomorrow?"
"Oh, the person is not even dead yet, why are you rushing to perform a ritual?"
What Boss Shen meant was,
"We have to find out what's wrong with her. If she's really dying from the drugs, we have to find a way to save her."
"What can we do? How about... should we report it to the police?"
Tian Bajiao asked without much thought.
Boss Shen knew without hesitation that this wouldn't work: "Have you never heard of officials protecting each other? Someone from the Zhou family works for the government. Reporting to the authorities is useless. Besides, Liu Suniang is not in the right mind. She might turn around and insist that she wasn't poisoned, and then say that we are shameful people and curse her. What will we do?"
The last time I hired a doctor for her, that idiot scolded her very harshly. Boss Shen is still furious when he thinks about it now.
"Even if she comes to her senses and feels that she has indeed been poisoned, she will most likely think that we were the ones who poisoned her. If we then find her guilty of false accusation, we will be in big trouble."
The more Boss Shen thought about it, the worse it got.
Tian Bajiao: "Then we need to find out who poisoned us before we can come up with a solution."
"That makes sense. Don't worry about the shop tomorrow. Get up early, and after dinner, go and find out. We'll think it over when you come back."
Boss Shen patted her and gave her instructions.
Tian Bajiao:?
"What the hell? No matter who poisoned me, there's no way he could tell me? Hey! Boss? Boss!"
Tian Bajiao shouted twice but failed to stop the man. Boss Shen walked away at a very fast pace.
She was asked to find out what was wrong with these masters and bosses, something she couldn't even figure out herself.
It would be strange if Tian Bajiao was willing to investigate thoroughly.
"What does this have to do with me?"
She muttered, pulled the quilt over her and lay down.
She should go to bed early.
They said she had to get up early, but by the time Tian Bajiao got up, the meal was ready, but Boss Shen still couldn't get up.
She could only leave some for her and then went out. After wandering around all day, she returned home empty-handed at night. Facing Boss Shen's expectant gaze, she said, "I found out that the doctor who treated her was named Zhang, and he was from Baicaotang."
It was a drugstore, quite famous in the town, but the prices were a bit high, so only wealthy people went there.
The person Boss Shen contacted last time was from a nearby pharmacy and was an old acquaintance of her father. He didn't collect her medical fees.
Today, when she saw Tian Bajiao, he stopped her and told her that Zhou Erye had also gone to him to apologize yesterday and asked about what happened that day.
However, the doctor did not mention Liu Suniang's poisoning, and asked Tian Bajiao to warn her boss not to talk nonsense and not to cause trouble for herself.
I have good intentions, but the reminder was a little late.
But there is nothing to complain about. It is good that the doctor remembered to remind her. It is better than forgetting it completely.
Boss Shen looked at her and continued to ask, "And then? Did you find out anything else?"
"No, the Zhou family's front and back doors are guarded, so I can't sneak in, and it's not easy to go up and ask directly. But I heard from the people living nearby that Madam Liu is indeed ill. They said they haven't seen her for several days, and everyone is very happy."
Tian Bajiao heard that she loved to bargain when buying things, so after she fell ill, the Zhou family became much more willing to pay when shopping.
Boss Shen: "That's all I need you to inquire about. Just ask two people and they'll know."
"But I'm a stranger here, so I have no way of checking this!" Tian Bajiao complained.
"Okay, okay, I'll go by myself. You, you, you, go and make dinner. Why didn't you come back at noon..."
Boss Shen's resentment was so deep that it was hard for her to go from extravagant to frugal. She was used to having someone cook for her, but when she cooked for herself, the egg pancakes were burnt and the rice was undercooked. She felt upset.
After all, he is just a child and can't get things done.
After dinner, Boss Shen strolled out and no one knew where he went. He came back in the middle of the night. Tian Bajiao had packed his luggage and was ready to run away, so she rushed into the shop in a hurry.
"Boss, where have you been? Why are you back just now?"
She ignored Tian Bajiao who was pretending to be concerned, looked around, rushed into the kitchen and drank a lot of cold water before saying, "Don't mention it, I went to the pharmacy and then to the snack shop..."
"Go to the snack shop?"
Tian Bajiao looked at her in confusion.
Boss Shen panted and said, "Yes, the pastry shop. I asked around the medicine shop for a long time but couldn't get anything out of it. I was really curious, so I went to the pastry shop and took the pastries to Zhou's house."
Tian Bajiao: "You are really brave, aren't you? What did you find out from the Zhou family?"
"I didn't find out anything," Boss Shen said. "I didn't even see Liu Suniang. She said she'd taken some medicine and gone to sleep. The old lady then asked me to chat for a while about some calming incense, saying she'd been having insomnia and nightmares lately. By the time I prepared the incense for her, it was almost dark when we left Zhou's house. I thought I'd just get back quickly, so I took a side road. Unexpectedly, I saw Xing'er acting suspiciously, so I chased after her and took a look..."
Tian Bajiao: "What are you looking at?"
"I saw her following Mr. Zhou Er all the way to the Liu Family's Herbal Medicine Shop. After Mr. Zhou Er went in, she went back. I was afraid she would see me, so I ran back as well."
Boss Shen said in a mysterious tone.
Tian Bajiao asked her, "Since you didn't see Madam Liu, but saw Xing'er, why didn't you stop her and ask how Madam Liu was? It seems we should help them, right? There seems to be no need to hide it, right?"
Boss Shen: ...
"I was so panicked at the time. What did Mr. Zhou do in the middle of the night instead of staying at home and going to Liu's house?"
"Perhaps it's because Madam Liu is seriously ill, so he should go and tell her."
"Can't we talk about this during the day? Can't we send a servant to tell him?"
"If the illness is really serious, it would be better for him to tell the doctor himself, and this kind of thing should always be kept secret from the patient." Tian Bajiao really didn't want to get involved in these things, and kept saying things to make a big thing small and a small thing nothing.
Boss Shen didn't listen to her nonsense: "There are so many ways to hide it from her. Why would you run out in the middle of the night? That would only make you look guilty. If I were to ask you, Mr. Zhou must have discussed it with the Liu family and planned to poison Liu Suniang to death!"
"No way, why would they do that?"
"Hate her. Think about what Liu Suniang did to the Liu family, and look at her temper. I'm afraid these people have been holding grudges for a long time, so they teamed up to kill her."
