Chapter 567 Poisoning Feng Jing
Seeing that the cake was about to be eaten,
Feng Jing suddenly thought of his second sister-in-law and put it down again.
"This pastry looks quite novel." Feng Jing peeled it open and took a look. "Doesn't my second sister-in-law always lack new ideas for making cakes? Why don't I take it back first and show it to her before eating it."
Besides, there is Xiao Nuobao. If it tastes good, I have to share some with my sister.
So Feng Jing licked his lips and put the cake back into the oil paper package, thinking of taking it home.
After returning home, after dinner, the whole family gathered together to chat.
The earthen dragon was burning warmly, and Xiao Nuobao, wearing a small single-layered shirt with a petal collar, was playing on the carpet. After a while, her little face was flushed from the heat.
Feng took out a palm-leaf fan and fanned her for a while.
Soon, several brothers came home, and the little fat girl squeezed in between them, and was rubbed on the little face, which made her laugh non-stop.
At this time, Doctor Wu finished preparing herbs and came into the house to join everyone.
"You say, life is really good now." Doctor Wu laughed, "In the middle of winter, it is still hot enough to use a cattail leaf fan to fan the air. If it were in our farmhouse, we would never dare to think about it." Mrs. Feng
thought about it and agreed.
In the past, even if the kang was heated, the wind would still come in through the window slits in winter, and it was always hot enough to sweat.
"If we talk about the past, a few years ago, when my family was the poorest, the children could not even have a snack a year. How could it be like now, when cakes can be eaten as meals." Mrs. Feng was very moved.
Although life has improved, the love in the peasants' bones cannot be erased after all.
Feng went to tell Madam Zheng to ask her to tell the servant in the fire room to burn half a pound less charcoal every day in the future, because the house was too hot and uncomfortable.
When the adults were reminiscing about the bitter past, Feng Jing remembered the cakes and ran to get them for Shudai.
"Second sister-in-law, look." He opened the oil paper package.
"I don't know what the filling of this cake is. I see a lot of black inside, but it doesn't look like black sesame or cocoa powder, so I wanted to bring it back to show you."
Li Qiqiao has been learning Nuobao's calligraphy these days, hoping to learn more characters so that she can understand the ancient recipes in the future and come up with more new products.
So her eyes lit up when she heard it, "Did you buy this from a shop outside? Is there any new ingredient on the market now?"
The cake was exquisitely shaped and the filling was rich, almost overflowing.
Li Qiqiao couldn't wait and broke it in half. Who knew that just as the black filling was exposed, Doctor Wu beside him moved his nose and suddenly rushed over to snatch it away!
"What is this strange smell?" Doctor Wu's face changed drastically, "Don't eat it yet!"
He seemed to be unbelievable, and he moved closer to smell it twice, then his eyes trembled and he threw it to the ground.
"It turned out to be a filling made of poppy paste. Where did this food come from? Is it going to kill people!"
The Jiang family was shocked when they heard it.
What? Poppy hidden in food...
Feng Jing's face turned pale immediately, "No way, Grandpa Wu... But this is a snack issued by our Imperial College, how could there be that thing?"
Feng's heart skipped a beat, and she rushed over to touch Feng Jing's face, her voice trembling, "Did you eat it, and how much did you eat?"
Feng Jing shook his head in panic, "I wanted to bring it back for my sister and second sister-in-law, I haven't touched it yet."
As soon as these words came out, the family's hearts that were hanging in their throats finally let go.
Even Xiao Nuobao was shocked, and his pale little face was stunned for a long time.
After confirming again and again that Feng Jing had not eaten it, the cold sweat on Feng's body dissipated a little.
At this time, Doctor Wu quickly opened all of them and carefully checked the things inside.
"That's right, there is half poppy paste and the other half should be bean paste, mixed with a lot of honey, plum meat, red silk and peanuts, so when you eat it, you won't expect something strange to happen for a while, it's really poisonous!"
"Based on this amount, eating half of it will definitely be addictive!" Doctor Wu's forehead was sweating with fear.
What's more terrifying is that if someone with a weak body eats a whole piece of cake, he may even die.
The Jiang family shuddered when they heard it.
Isn't this going to kill people!
Jiang Fengnian was furious, veins popped out on his forehead, "Why would the Imperial College give this to a child? Could someone deliberately want to harm the child? Investigate, this must be investigated! I'm going to find Wu Jijiu now to see if other students have been affected!"
Fengze also stood up with a frown.
"Brother, I'll go with you. It's hard to say whether all the children are involved in this matter, or whether our Fengjing was the only one who was harmed, but since the incident happened in the Imperial College, there must be an explanation!" He had a bad feeling in his heart.
The Jiang family is now a big tree that attracts wind.
It is unknown if someone is only targeting Fengjing.
Feng felt that the matter was complicated, but she was not afraid. She stood up, took the war capes for her two sons, and said a few words with a sullen face.
"No matter who did it and what their purpose is, you must remember that we don't cause trouble but we are not afraid of it. If anyone dares to harm our children, we must find him out!"
The two of them nodded and rushed to the Wu Mansion in the night.
Seeing that it was getting late, Feng knew that the children were frightened, so she made the quilts.
"We can't find out this matter in one night. You go to sleep first. If there is anything, we can still talk about it tomorrow."
But how could Xiao Nuobao sleep? After rolling into the warm quilt, his little body kept tossing and turning, wondering who wanted to harm his fourth brother.
Don't let her catch him!
Not to mention Feng Jing, he was scared and didn't dare to think that if he really ate it, he would be badly hurt.
Feng looked at his pale face and her heart ached.
I could only stay by the bed, touching his head constantly to scare him.
"Touching the fur won't scare him, touching the ears will scare him for a while, touching the hands won't scare him..."
Listening to her mother's constant chatter, the little fat girl's eyelids gradually became heavy, and finally she was able to close them.
But Feng Jing didn't sleep all night, and he looked like a sick chicken, with dark circles under his eyes.
The next morning, at noon, there was finally news from Fengnian and Fengze.
