Upon hearing this, the young man blurted out, "How could I make things up? He is a student of Zhang's Private School, just like me. His name is Wen Xu, and he is currently working at Yun Jin Medical Clinic."
Yunjin Medical Clinic?
Song Xia had never heard of it, nor had anyone else present.
Upon learning that Song Xia was going to see Wen Xu, most of the people present followed her.
When Song Xia and his group arrived at Yun Jin Medical Clinic, the clinic's doctor was treating an old woman.
Their clinic is located in a somewhat remote area, so not many people come here for treatment.
I noticed that so many people had arrived.
The young apprentice immediately stepped forward: "Gentlemen, who are you...?"
Song Xia then explained his purpose.
Upon learning that they had come to see Wen Xu, the apprentice quickly approached his master: "Master, they have come to see Wen Xu."
The doctor was a middle-aged man in his thirties.
He glanced at Song Xia and the others, then looked away and said, "Tell them that Wen Xu just took his medicine and went to sleep, so he can't see them now. If they want to see him, they can come later."
Song Xia walked over and asked, "How long is 'later'?"
The doctor ignored her and continued to take the pulse of the old woman in front of him.
Song Xia pulled up a stool and sat down next to the old woman.
Seeing that she wouldn't leave until she saw Wen Xu, the doctor finished taking the old woman's pulse and said, "Wen Xu's family is all in the backyard. He's their precious child. He got sick from eating at your shop. If you go to see him, his family probably won't be very kind to you."
Song Xia said firmly, "If it really is our shop's fault, I will cover all his medical expenses and even provide compensation. If not, then I won't be polite to him either."
The doctor really didn't expect Song Xia to be so arrogant.
He paused for a moment and said, "In that case, go to the backyard to see them. Wen Xu is in the Tianzi room; his family is all there."
Song Xia got up and left, and everyone who came with her followed her to the backyard.
When Song Laosi caught up, they had already gone into the backyard.
He ran inside quickly.
As soon as I came in.
Song Laosi saw an old woman whose clothes were covered in patches raise her hand and rush towards her daughter.
"Xia'er, be careful!"
Song Xia was naturally able to dodge; she simply sidestepped.
The old woman fell to the ground next to her with a thud, groaning in pain: "Ouch, it hurts so much, it hurts so much! That little bitch is so wicked."
"Who are you calling a slut? You're the slut!"
Song Laosi ran over and said.
Song Xia ignored him and said to the old woman, "As soon as I said who I am, you pounced on me and hit me. Did you expect me to just stand there and let you hit me if I didn't dodge?"
Seeing her say that.
Li, Wen Xu's mother, shouted, "So what if I hit you? If you hadn't made our Xu'er sick, would his grandmother have hit you? If anything happens to my son, we'll never forgive you!"
"that is!"
Wen Xu's father and two younger sisters chimed in.
Their voices were quite loud.
Song Xia stood ramrod straight and asked, "Officials in the government always require evidence when handling cases. You say Wen Xu got sick from eating food from our fast food restaurant, do you have any evidence?"
Wen Xu's grandmother, Madam Liang, got up and said, "Evidence? What do you mean there's no evidence? Xu'er felt unwell as soon as he ate it, and his classmates who were with him can testify to that!"
"Okay, then we'll report this to the authorities."
As soon as Song Xia said this...
The expressions on Liang's face all changed.
Just then.
Wen Xu walked out of the room with a pale face. He didn't have any patches on his clothes, but they looked faded from washing.
“Young lady, this is just a small matter. Why take it to the yamen? The town magistrate is very busy every day. It would be wrong for us to trouble him with such a small thing.”
He truly deserves to be a scholar who passed the imperial examination; he is different from the rest of his family.
Song Xia stared at him and said, "A small matter? You think this is a small matter? If it were really a small matter, why would everyone know about it? I don't care what happened, I have to find out today whether it was the food from our shop that made you sick. If it was, I'll take full responsibility. If not, I'll pursue this to the end!"
Their family's circumstances clearly weren't good, so why would he really be willing to spend money to eat at their fast food restaurant?
Before Wen Xu could speak.
Song Xia asked Song Lao Si to report to the authorities.
Less than 15 minutes.
Song Laosi then led Yan Jinling and the others over.
I asked them a few questions.
Yan Jinling sent someone to invite the student who had dined with Wen Xu. As for him and the rest of the people, they were responsible for bringing all those involved in the case back to the yamen.
Old Man Song was a little worried. He tugged at Song Xia's sleeve and said, "Daughter, are we really going to make a scene at the yamen?"
"Go, why wouldn't you go?"
"Don't you know whether the food in our shop is clean or not?"
Song Xia's words silenced Song Lao Si.
Yan Jinling knew that his uncle would send someone to fetch a doctor soon, so on the way back, he took it upon himself to invite two doctors and went back to the yamen with them.
After listening to Yan Jinling's explanation, the town magistrate asked Song Xia and Wen Xu a few questions.
After asking the question.
The town magistrate had the two doctors he had invited take turns taking Wen Xu's pulse.
After examining Wen Xu, both doctors said that he had indeed eaten something bad, but they didn't know whether it was because of the food from Song Xia's shop.
Liang said smugly, "You brat, what else do you have to say?"
"Of course I have something to say."
Song Xia turned to the two doctors and asked, "Doctors, I have a question for you. Wen Xu said he came to our shop for a meal with a classmate. Since they ate together, how come one got an upset stomach while the other is fine?"
Two doctors.
The younger ones fell into deep thought.
The older man met Song Xia's gaze and said, "Everyone's physical condition is different. The reason he had an upset stomach is probably because he's a bit weak..."
"Okay, I understand."
Song Xia walked up to Wen Xu and asked, "Wen Xu, what did you eat this morning?"
Why did she ask these questions?
After a moment of silence, Wen Xu chose to tell the truth: "A steamed bun and a bowl of porridge."
"What about noon?"
Song Xia asked him again.
Wen Xu clenched his fists.
Song Xia waited a while and, seeing that he didn't speak, raised an eyebrow and said, "What's wrong? You don't remember what you ate for lunch? If your memory is this bad, how did you pass the imperial examination?"
Although Wen Xu knew what Song Xia meant, he still had to answer her.
"Of course I remember, I just feel nauseous just thinking about what we ate for lunch. Besides the grilled meat skewers, we also ate from your shop today..."
Song Xia interrupted him, saying, "Wait, you said you ate grilled meat skewers. Our shop doesn't sell grilled meat skewers."
Wen Xu spoke in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft.
"Your shop doesn't sell grilled meat skewers, but I ate them without any problems. It wasn't until I ate your twice-cooked pork, shredded pork with garlic sauce, freshly fried crispy pork, and a vegetable and tofu soup that my stomach started hurting."
Song Xia asked Wen Xu, "Even poison has time to be consumed, let alone food. How can you say that our family's food caused your stomachache?"
