Chapter 190: Filled with Filth
"Aunt Gu, what's wrong with me?"
Dabao weakly propped himself up and spoke while looking at Gu Yuanniang who was not far away.
Seeing the boy wake up, Gu Yuanniang immediately came over, looked at the boy and said, "Don't move, lie down quickly."
"Aunt Gu, I still have to go to Mr. Nangong to learn martial arts. I can't sleep any more. He will start to blame me later."
After saying that, Dabao was about to get up, but as soon as he stood up, he fell down heavily again. He felt a tingling sensation on his wrist. Dabao immediately lifted the clothes on his wrist, and he could only see that the original blood vessels had turned black, and there was something flowing in the blood.
"Good boy, he won't say anything to you. I've already handed in the leave application." Gu Yuan's mother sighed and tucked the quilt back into Dabao's arms: "You've been poisoned."
"How could this be!" Dabao spoke in shock. Because he was so excited, he coughed up some blood again.
Gu Yuanniang's heart tightened, and she immediately took a handkerchief to wipe the blood clean: "It was the princess of Liang who poisoned your wine glass. Miaomiao and Weiwei wanted to help you get the antidote, but unexpectedly Weiwei was stabbed as an assassin. Now she is also poisoned and bedridden."
"Ahem."
Hearing this, Dabao became a little excited and coughed a few times, with blood dripping from the corners of his mouth: "Mom, where is mom? Why can't I see her?"
"Miao Miao is going to find an antidote for you." Gu Yuanniang responded.
"Where to? Liang Country?"
The excitement was hard to calm down. Gu Yuanniang suddenly regretted telling him all these things. She quickly pushed him down on the bed and said, "Yes, only if you lie down on the bed obediently offline, Miaomiao will feel relieved."
After hearing this, Dabao stopped making a fuss and lay quietly on the bed.
Seeing that the boy closed his eyes, Gu Yuan's mother left without disturbing him.
They haven't been open for the past few days, but I still have to go over and take a look at the shop.
As soon as she reached the door, Gu Yuanniang saw Xu Qingshan looking into the shop. When he saw that the shop was not open, he shook his head with some regret.
"Why are you here?" Gu Yuanniang asked with some confusion when she saw the man.
When Xu Qingshan saw her, he raised his mouth in joy: "I have been wondering why you haven't opened for business these days, and I have come to see you every day. Today I finally get to see you."
Gu Yuanniang blushed at his words, looked at the man and said, "What do you want me to do?"
Xu Qingshan took out a piece of oil paper and opened it, only to see a bunch of bright red fruits inside: "These are fresh fruits. I have been waiting to bring them to you. I have been holding them in my arms for fear that they will get cold."
"Hehe." Gu Yuan's mother was amused by his silly look. She picked up a piece of fruit and put it in her mouth. The slightly hot fruit tasted very good.
Gu Yuanniang thought secretly.
Seeing the woman glance at him and leave, Xu Qingshan immediately chased after her: "You haven't told me why you haven't opened the store in the past few days."
Following the woman to the department store, the original shelves were covered with a thin layer of dust. Gu Yuanniang took a feather duster and started cleaning.
While working, he told Xu Qingshan what had happened in the past few days.
When Xu Qingshan saw her working, he immediately walked over, picked up the rag beside him and started wiping.
After listening to Gu Yuanniang's story, Xu Qingshan frowned in disbelief: "This is really outrageous. She actually did such a despicable thing under the feet of the emperor. It's too much!"
"There's no point in saying more. I can only hope Miaomiao comes back with the antidote soon."
Gu Yuanniang sighed and spoke.
The store had not been open for several days, and I was thinking of cleaning up the shop and going back, but just as I was about to go out, a man came up to me with a threatening look.
"Finally you opened the door, otherwise I would have thought you were going to hide for a long time!" The man looked at Gu Yuan's mother and spoke unhappily.
This sudden accusation made Gu Yuanniang stunned: "I wonder what happened, my dear husbands? Why are we running away?"
"How dare you ask!"
One of them said angrily: "What do you mean by pushing those filthy things in front of the back door? They have been there for several days. How can we do business with such a strong smell?"
"What a filthy thing! How come I don't know about it?" Gu Yuanniang was a little confused.
"Whether you really don't know or you're just pretending, just go and take a look at those things." The man pointed at the back door impatiently and said, "If you don't do business, we still have to. If you leave those things there, customers won't dare to come."
"That's right." The man next to him responded, "You'd better pack your things quickly."
Hearing this impatient tone, Gu Yuanniang got angry: "We have never left any filthy things behind, don't frame us!"
Seeing this scene, Xu Qingshan immediately stepped forward and pulled Gu Yuanniang and these people apart before he stopped.
After sending everyone away, Gu Yuanniang immediately went to the back room to check.
I saw a lot of dirty things piled on the wall at the back, and the smell was terrible.
Seeing this, Gu Yuanniang immediately covered her nose and went forward to check: "Who piled these things here? It's absurd!"
Xu Qingshan was also forced to take two steps back by the smell.
"Sixth Lady, let's deal with these things first."
With a silk scarf wrapped around her nose, Gu Yuanniang took a broom and cleaned everything up.
Xu Qingshan was helping on the side.
There were quite a lot of these filthy things, mixed with a lot of slop and some leftover rice scraps.
"Why is there still a crab shell here?" Xu Qingshan said while holding a crab shell.
Gu Yuanniang walked over and searched around and found many crab shells.
"Now I know who did it."
Apart from Zuixiefang, she couldn't think of another place that had so many crab shells and had a grudge against the department store.
After spending an entire afternoon, I finally cleaned up all the filth in front of me.
Gu Yuanniang collapsed on the chair in exhaustion: "These despicable villains just love to use these unpresentable means."
"Sixth Mother, have you offended the owner of the Zui Xie Restaurant?" Xu Qingshan asked. The Zui Xie Restaurant was several blocks away from the department store. What kind of hatred could make people run several blocks to throw these things?
"They were the ones who sold the dead crabs themselves, and they didn't allow anyone to say anything." Gu Yuan's mother said angrily, "If you have the ability, don't do those shameful things yourself. You don't dare to admit it, and you still use this method to hurt others!"
"Dead crab?"
Xu Qingshan asked in confusion, and understood what Gu Yuanniang meant between the lines.
