Chapter 78 The Truth Comes to Light
"Zhou Jincong, the doctor you invited is a famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the city, right?"
The chief's wife fought in many battles in her early years. Although she has settled down now, she is not the type of person who stays at home all the time.
At first she felt that the old man next to Zhou Jincong looked familiar. Now that she thought about it carefully, she realized that this man was the old Chinese doctor in the city who had a bad temper but excellent medical skills.
Zhou Jincong nodded and said, "I went to the city specifically to invite Mr. Sun here just to clear my wife's name."
After hearing this, a look of satisfaction flashed across the eyes of the chief's wife.
"In that case, please trouble Elder Sun to check the prescription and the residue."
"Okay, okay!" Old Sun stroked his beard, but his eyes fell on Ye Wangshu.
"This girl doesn't look very old, but I, an old man, am quite curious about her medical skills."
Old Sun has a strange temper. The reason why he was willing to follow Zhou Jincong on this trip was that he was curious about how powerful Ye Wangshu, the girl who Zhou Jincong said had extraordinary Chinese medicine skills, was.
At this time, Zhang Guozhu also opened the door at the urging of Mrs. Zhang.
"Madam, Captain, please come in!"
Zhang Guozhu glanced at Ye Wangshu, and a trace of stiffness crossed his face.
Ye Wangshu didn't take Zhang Guozhu's attitude to heart and asked directly, "Sister Zhang should have kept my prescription and the residue from the medicine from a few days ago, right?"
"Leave them all here, and follow me."
Zhang Guozhu took the person to the kitchen and handed the prescription in his hand to the old Chinese doctor, "Here is the prescription and the residue."
Elder Sun lowered his eyes to look at the prescription in his hand, and then he was overjoyed, "Great! This pregnancy-maintaining medicine is well written, and the handwriting is also good."
"Girl, are you interested in going to the clinic in the city with me?" Old Sun looked at Ye Wangshu with surprise, and he couldn't wait to take her to the city.
"Ahem! Mr. Sun, please take a look at these medicine residues first." Zhou Jincong coughed lightly, then stood in front of Ye Wangshu.
"You kid, you really don't know what's good for you." Old Sun curled his lips, shook his head and then slowly walked to the table.
Using chopsticks to separate the medicinal residue, Old Sun's brows immediately knitted together, "Who added hawthorn in there?"
"Even if you're a sour person, you can't eat hawthorn! Hawthorn is cold in nature and can cause abortion!"
When Mr. Sun said this, everyone was shocked.
"That day when Sister Zhang brought the medicine for me to check, she was the only one at home besides me."
Ye Wangshu turned and looked at Li Xiaoxia, and everyone looked at her after hearing this.
"It's you! You're the one who wants to kill my wife and child!"
Zhang Guozhu was shocked when he heard this, and his breathing became faster.
He strode over to Li Xiaoxia and tightly grasped her shoulders. "Why did you harm my wife and child? I have no grudge against you. Why did you do this?"
"It's just a little bit. I just wanted to make her stomach ache for a few days. Who knew it would cause a miscarriage?"
Li Xiaoxia was frightened by Zhang Guozhu's attitude and blurted out the truth.
Now that there is evidence and Li Xiaoxia has admitted it herself, everyone immediately began to denounce Li Xiaoxia.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoxia realized that she had been exposed and quickly tried to make amends.
"No, I mean, eating a little bit of hawthorn will give you a stomachache. I don't mean to harm your wife and child. I just remembered that when I was pregnant, I had stomach irritation for a few days after eating hawthorn..."
The more Li Xiaoxia spoke, the less confident she became, but she still looked at Zhang Guozhu stubbornly, as if trying to convince him that she had not harmed anyone.
"But that day, after I asked Wangshu to check the medicine, I saw you take the hawthorn fruit to the kitchen. At that time, you kept saying that I couldn't be pregnant, so before leaving, I specifically asked Wangshu to look at the herbs again."
Mrs. Zhang looked at Li Xiaoxia with tears in her eyes, "Li Xiaoxia, you still don't admit that you put the hawthorn fruit there?"
"I was afraid you'd see I was fine, so I deliberately put on this act. I never thought you were actually trying to frame Wangshu. Li Xiaoxia, you have such a cruel heart!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard what Mrs. Zhang said.
"Li Xiaoxia, you and Ye Wangshu are sisters-in-law. What did she do to deserve such treatment?"
After learning the whole story, the chief's wife looked at Li Xiaoxia in disbelief.
She really couldn't imagine why someone could be so vicious.
"I'm not! I didn't!"
Li Xiaoxia was anxious and retreated repeatedly under the pressure of the crowd.
Only now did she realize that this was a trap set by Ye Wangshu and the others.
He knew that he had done something wrong, but he pretended to know nothing.
Li Xiaoxia covered her head and shook it, looking at everyone like a madman. "It's you, you guys teamed up to frame me! I didn't do it, I didn't do it!"
Everyone was stunned by her condition, and when they came to their senses, Li Xiaoxia had disappeared.
After Li Xiaoxia left, everyone gathered around and apologized to Ye Wangshu for their previous words and actions.
"I don't blame anyone, but people's words can be scary. I hope everyone will not make wrong judgments based on what others say in the future."
Everyone nodded, and then left under the command of the chief's wife.
"Wangshu, your sister-in-law...will she attack me again?"
Mrs. Zhang looked at Ye Wangshu with a worried look on her face, and went over to hold her hand. "This is the second time. The way she looked just now... I was really scared."
"Probably not. After what happened today, if anything happens to you, everyone will suspect her. She probably won't be stupid enough to attack you again. But you still have to be careful. Tell me if you encounter any problems."
Mrs. Zhang nodded, then lowered her eyes and saw the things in Zhou Jincong's hand and quickly said, "Take all these things back! I'm fine to begin with, you've already given them to me."
"This matter has nothing to do with Wangshu, but it is my sister-in-law who has the intention to harm me. I should apologize, not to mention that this is for my nephew."
Zhou Jincong stuffed the things into Zhang Guozhu's arms and said, "Take good care of your wife. If you have any problems, remember to come to me and Wangshu at any time."
"Captain, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have bothered my sister-in-law based on rumors."
Zhang Guozhu bowed to Ye Wangshu, and when he looked up again, his eyes were red. "My wife and I are able to have this child thanks to the medicine prescribed by Dr. Ye. How could I be so foolish as to doubt Dr. Ye just because I doubt him?"
"You are also anxious. Take your sister-in-law back." Although Ye Wangshu didn't like being wronged, she didn't blame Zhang Guozhu.
"Girl, you're so amazing! Are you really not considering coming to the city with me and becoming a proper doctor?"
After everyone had left, Old Sun approached Ye Wangshu and asked.
Ye Wangshu shook his head and said, "Senior, I want to stay in the village."
"Alright!" Old Sun looked at Ye Wangshu with regret, then sighed and said, "Boy, take me back quickly. If you make me miss the patient after such a long time, I will never forgive you."
Zhou Jincong naturally would not refuse. After sending Ye Wangshu home, he drove Old Sun back to the city.
