Liu Cuiying turned around suddenly and said casually, "I'll go find the two dollars."
"Take your things and don't come back after you've found them."
"Ah, this?"
Liu Cuiying didn't want to leave because she hadn't given the poison to Fang Suyun yet.
Then she turned back and said, "Suyun, Suyun, I can't leave. If I leave, I have nowhere to go."
"But you said you'd stay one night and leave, otherwise we wouldn't have kept you. You agreed yesterday, there's no reason to change your mind today."
"Suyun, I really can't leave. Please have mercy and let me stay here."
She was anxious to find medicine and to persuade Fang Suyun to let her stay. In desperation, she actually knelt down to Fang Suyun.
"My daughter, please take pity on me. I really have nowhere to go. I have no choice."
Fang Suyun helped her up, "Mom, what are you doing? You're trying to shorten my lifespan. Let me tell you, I'm determined. Even if you kneel down in front of me, I won't let you stay."
The old lady was so sure yesterday that she would leave today, so why did she change her mind? Perhaps she hadn't achieved her goal yet.
"Suyun, my dear daughter, please take me in for one more day, just one day. I will leave immediately tomorrow."
"Another day, who knows if you'll still stay tomorrow?"
"No, no, I promise to leave." She found the medicine during the day and gave it to Fang Suyun. She would leave tomorrow and never come back.
Fang Suyun pretended to think for a moment, then said, "Then stay for another day. If you don't leave tomorrow, we'll kick you out."
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely leave tomorrow. You don't have to chase me away."
She said this and went out.
Xu Zhenqing listened to their conversation in the room, then came out and said to Fang Suyun, "Did you find anything yesterday? She suddenly stopped leaving again. Did she fail to achieve her goal?"
"I think so too. She only went to the bathroom last night and didn't do anything else. She said she lost her money and went out to look for it."
They checked the yard and the house but found nothing suspicious.
Xu Zhenqing stared at Liu Cuiying's bag. "Although I know it's wrong to go through other people's things, Liu Cuiying is not a good person. I think we should check her things."
"Okay, let's take a look. You can't use conventional methods on someone like her."
Xu Zhenqing smiled. Fang Suyun became increasingly cold and sober towards Liu Cuiying.
They opened Liu Cuiying's bag and found some food, clothes, and some money, but nothing else suspicious.
After checking, they wrapped the bundle for Liu Cuiying according to its original appearance.
Fang Suyun did not cook for Liu Cuiying. After they finished eating, she locked the door and went to work. No one cared whether Liu Cuiying would come back or when she would come back.
Liu Cuiying searched all the places she had been to yesterday, but could not find the packet of medicine powder. She thought she had not looked carefully enough, so she searched again, but still found nothing.
When she was so hungry that she felt dizzy and wanted to go back to the cowshed to eat, she found that the door of the cowshed was locked and she couldn't get in at all.
She looked at the top of the wall, which was about one person tall, but beyond her reach, so she had to give up.
Tired and hungry, she originally wanted to sit at the door and wait for Fang Suyun and the others to come back, but when she thought about her unfinished mission and the fact that she had not found the medicine yet, she stood up and went to look for medicine again.
Xu Nuannuan was grazing sheep in the field when she saw Liu Cuiying looking for something. This was the third time she had seen Liu Cuiying looking for something today, and she seemed very anxious.
She suddenly ran up to Liu Cuiying and said, "Old woman, what are you looking for? Let me help you find it."
Liu Cuiying subconsciously wanted to blurt out: "I'm looking for it." But when she looked up and found that it was Xu Nuannuan, she quickly swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
"I'm looking for money. I lost two dollars yesterday and I want to get it back."
"Old woman, you always love money. It's only two dollars, isn't it worth all this trouble?"
"Two dollars isn't enough? It's enough for me to eat for a few days. How can I not change it?"
Then she went to look somewhere else.
Tuanzi had already told Xu Nuannuan everything Liu Cuiying did last night. Xu Nuannuan pouted and asked, "Are you really looking for those two dollars?"
She said to Tuanzi, "Why don't you follow him and look for something special? After all, your dog's nose is much better than hers."
"Okay, I'll go look for it too." After saying that, he spread out his four paws and ran away.
Fang Suyun and Xu Zhenqing also saw Liu Cuiying looking for something in the field. Fang Suyun said, "Is she still looking for those two dollars?"
"She's always been a money-grubber, but for those two dollars, she was willing to put in the effort."
Tuanzi quickly walked around and came to tell Xu Nuannuan: "I didn't find anything."
Xu Nuannuan touched her nose. It seemed that the things the old woman had lost had been picked up by someone.
Lin Ruyan also saw Liu Cuiying in the field. She originally wanted to hear the news that someone had died in the cowshed, but when she went to work early in the morning, she saw Fang Suyun was safe and sound, so it must be Liu Cuiying who had failed.
She hated Liu Cuiying for being a waste and it was a shame for her to have such a grandmother.
Liu Cuiying searched until noon. She even turned over the grass by the roadside, but she couldn't find any trace of the medicine bag, not even a piece of paper.
She guessed that the package of medicine must have been picked up by someone else.
It was filled with poison. I wasn't worried that someone would die if they accidentally took it. It had nothing to do with him anyway. She was worried about her own loss. Without the powder, how could she poison Fang Suyun?
