Chapter 63 Put the Blame on Me
Not long after Xu Hao finished speaking, her mother rushed to the hospital.
After all, she was an expert in pig farming with decades of experience. When Xu Haoniang saw Qin Lie and Zhao Xue for the first time, she realized something was wrong and immediately went home to look for the aphrodisiac she had placed in the cabinet.
She soon discovered that one bag was missing. She searched through all the drawers and cabinets at home but couldn't find the other one, so she rushed over immediately.
"Leader, this has nothing to do with my Xu Hao. It's all my fault. If I hadn't thought about giving the army's pigs more offspring and letting everyone have more meat to eat, this wouldn't be the case."
Although she is from the country, Xu Haoniang is also very eloquent.
She brought the medicine for the benefit of the troops, but she didn't expect someone to take advantage of her kindness.
Political Commissar Zhu was not the kind of pedantic person. He asked her, "Auntie, besides you and Xu Hao, who else in the army knew that you brought medicine to the army?"
Xu Haoniang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her leader did not intend to pursue the matter, but she hated the person who drugged her even more in her heart.
She began to count on her fingers, "Dapang's mother, Sister Chunhua, Sister Hongxing, Warrior Qian..."
Seeing that Xu Haoniang was about to name everyone in the family compound, Political Commissar Zhu immediately interrupted her, "Auntie, you only brought some medicine, do you really need to tell everyone in the family compound?"
Xu Haoniang was a little embarrassed. "Isn't this my job? I just love talking to people about raising livestock."
"Who knows where you put the medicine?" Gu Xizhou interrupted her.
This time, Xu Haoniang hesitated for a moment, tried hard to recall, and said the name again.
This time, the number of suspects immediately decreased a lot. They were all the sisters-in-law and aunties who came to help Xu Hao early this morning.
"Xiao Gu, go talk to these people and see if there are any clues." Political Commissar Zhu thought for a moment and said to Gu Xizhou.
Gu Xizhou didn't respond, his eyes fell on Qin Lie who was glaring at him in the emergency room.
"Commissar, perhaps asking Deputy Battalion Commander Qin and Comrade Zhao what they ate and drank would be faster."
Political Commissar Zhu patted his forehead and said, "I was actually troubled by this..."
Fifteen minutes later.
Qin Lie and Zhao Xue both woke up and were transferred to the ward. At this moment, there were only a few leaders in the ward, including Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou, as well as the women's director Gao Yun who hurried over.
Originally, Su Nanzhi should have avoided suspicion, but Qin Lie identified Su Nanzhi as the suspect after waking up, so she was allowed to enter the ward and confront Qin Lie.
When Qin Lie pretended to faint, he kept recalling how he was hit.
Without waiting for Political Commissar Zhu to ask, he immediately pointed at Su Nanzhi and said excitedly: "Political Commissar, I drank the water that Su Nanzhi handed me, and that's why I was drugged."
Speaking of aphrodisiacs, he only felt waves of pain in his lower body.
Su Nanzhi pointed at herself in shock, "Me?"
"I didn't even know there was aphrodisiac in Platoon Leader Xu's house, how could I give you the drug?"
"And am I out of my mind? I'll pour water for you, a scoundrel."
After saying this, Su Nanzhi's eyes turned red, and she looked at Political Commissar Zhu beside her with a look of grievance, "But it's not unreasonable for you to doubt me. After all, in the entire army, I am the only one who has a grudge against Qin Lie."
"It's just that I didn't do it. I won't admit it even if you torture me."
Seeing that Su Nanzhi looked like she was about to cry, Political Commissar Zhu immediately said anxiously, "Comrade Su, we haven't investigated the matter thoroughly yet, so we won't make any rash decisions. Furthermore, we won't resort to torture..."
As he said this, he couldn't help but glare at Qin Lie fiercely.
This idiot is talking nonsense without any evidence.
Qin Lie didn't notice Zhu Zhengwei's gaze, but only looked at Su Nanzhi grimly, "After I arrived at Xu Hao's house, I drank the water you gave me."
Su Nanzhi said nothing, just kept "crying".
A leader who had witnessed the entire quarrel between Qin Lie and Su Nanzhi couldn't help but speak up, "Xiao Qin, what you said is wrong. Xiao Xu clearly handed you the water you drank."
Xu Hao was involved, and he was called in immediately after he was waiting outside.
When he heard everyone suspect that there was something wrong with the water he handed out, he naturally started to explain.
Finally, the object of suspicion fell back on Su Nanzhi.
At this moment, Su Nanzhi had stopped "crying" and, facing everyone's suspicious gazes, pointed her finger at Zhao Xue, who had opened her eyes at some point.
"Comrade Zhao handed me the water."
Zhao Xue never really fainted. After she and Qin Lie were caught on the scene, she knew that the matter was serious.
Seeing Su Nanzhi pointing her finger, she pretended to be calm.
"Xiao Su, I not only poured water for you, but it's fine for others to drink it too. Why is there something wrong with your water cup?"
"And how can you prove that it wasn't you who drugged me and put the blame on me?"
"I know you've been angry with us because Qin and you broke off your engagement and got together with me, but you can't do such a thing."
Hearing this last sentence, Su Nanzhi raised her eyebrows and looked a little amused.
Zhao Xue's move brought the blame back to her, and also announced the relationship between her and Qin Lie.
However, when Qin Lie heard what Zhao Xue said, his face turned ugly for a moment.
But he also knew that if he said now that he had nothing to do with Zhao Xue, he would be acting like a hooligan. Not to mention joining the army, he didn't even know if he would have the chance to be reformed.
But he was reluctant to admit that he had a relationship with Zhao Xue.
As a deputy battalion commander, his future wife should not be an ugly, uneducated country woman like Su Nanzhi, nor should she be a second-married woman with a child like Zhao Xue.
Zhao Xue was relieved to see that Qin Lie did not refute her. At the same time, her mind quickly recalled to make sure that no one noticed when she drugged him.
Su Nanzhi took in the expressions on the two men's faces. Just as she was about to speak, Gu Xizhou's voice suddenly rang out from the side.
"Comrade Su doesn't even like me, how could he possibly like Qin Lie?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire ward instantly became quiet and eerie.
Everyone's eyes kept on Gu Xizhou and Su Nanzhi.
Although no one spoke, Su Nanzhi could guess what they were thinking from their expressions.
I didn't expect that Captain Gu, the most beautiful girl in the army, has someone she likes?
The lesbian I like is the ex-fiancée of the deputy battalion commander from the countryside!
And this lesbian actually doesn’t like Gu Xizhou?
Everyone looked at her with an expression of "Is there anything wrong with your eyes?", which made Su Nanzhi's cheeks turn red unconsciously. But when she saw the calm expression on Gu Xizhou's face, she quickly dispersed.
He just means well, why is she shy?
