The nannies hired by the old chief of staff were usually honest middle-aged women from the countryside or from the working class. Aunt Hao was usually honest and dutiful, never doing anything out of line. Now, caught drugging someone, she was panicked and speechless.
"Grandpa! What kind of medicine did Aunt Hao put in my porridge?" Ye Qiao shouted, his face full of anger and horror.
When the old chief of staff heard this, he was shocked and strode over.
"Xiao Hao! What are you doing?!" the old chief of staff asked sternly, and he also saw the square piece of paper in the nanny's hand.
Aunt Hao finally reacted and was about to throw the paper into the fire pit, but the old chief of staff was still strong and quick to grab her wrist with great accuracy to stop her from destroying the evidence.
"What is this?!" the old chief of staff shouted again and snatched the paper away. It was obviously the paper used to wrap pills in a small clinic, and there was powder on it.
"Chief, Chief, this, this is the tonic I added to Qiao Qiao. It's a tonic! It refreshes the mind!" Aunt Hao lied and stammered, feeling so guilty that she didn't even believe it herself!
The old chief of staff was a veteran after all. Just one look from him scared the nanny so much that her legs trembled. "Don't tell the truth, Xiao Dong!" He snorted coldly and shouted in a deep voice with full energy.
Guard Xiao Dong immediately ran over, "Report to the commander! Please give instructions!"
"Xiao Dong, take this piece of paper to the military hospital laboratory and ask them to test what medicine is on it! Just say it was my instruction!" The old leader ordered in a deep voice.
Xiao Dong saluted and said in a deep voice, "Yes!"
"No! No... Old Chief, I, I..." Aunt Hao looked helpless and in pain.
"Aunt Hao! Has our family been harsh on you? Why do you want to harm me? If that's a tonic, why do you have such an expression? Or do you have something to hide?!" Ye Qiao stepped forward and asked sternly.
Grandpa must have known that it was not a tonic. He asked Brother Xiao Dong to take it for testing because he was worried about her health.
Now, she has to force Aunt Hao to tell the truth and not let her take the blame for Qin Lan!
Aunt Hao shook her head, her eyes red, "Ms. Qiao Qiao, that really is a tonic..."
"Hmph! You don't admit it, right? Brother Dong has already taken it for testing. When the results come out, let me see what you say. Aunt Hao, if you have any difficulties, please tell me. I think grandpa will take care of it for you. Otherwise, you will be severely sentenced for your behavior of drugging soldiers' families in the military compound!" Ye Qiao continued to scare her with shocking information.
The old chief of staff also realized that something was wrong at this time. Why would a nanny harm the young lady for no reason? Unless someone instructed her to do so!
The old man's heart sank.
Aunt Hao knew the consequences. At the very least, she would lose her job, and at the worst, she would be sentenced to prison. She never expected that she would be caught by Ye Qiao!
"Ms. Qiao Qiao, that's a laxative. It's me... I can't stand you and want you to fail the exam..." Aunt Hao lowered her head and took the blame.
How could she dare to betray Qin Lan? If she offended Qin Lan, she would be in trouble.
Qin Lan said that if she did as she said, she would help her son secure a job at a government agency in J City. She also said that the dosage was small, and if Ye Qiao took it, it would only cause symptoms of chronic gastroenteritis, and he wouldn't notice it, let alone realize that it was her who was interfering.
For the sake of her son's future, she took the job. Otherwise, not only would Qin Lan ruin her son's job, but even her own job!
"You don't like me? What grudge do you have against me? I'm afraid someone ordered you to do this? You'd better admit it and don't be stupid enough to take the blame for others!" Ye Qiao said again.
