Chen Wei's face became serious.
The death of an old sow is not a big deal, but if the old sow is poisoned to death, that would be a big deal.
Chen Wei knew the difference between the important and the unimportant, and immediately ran into the house. "Chen Lie, the old sows at the pig farm died. Xiao Zhang, the pig feeder, said it was because they added garbage from your house to the pig feed, like fruit peels and the like."
Following closely behind, Xiao Zhang hurriedly added, "Besides banana peels and apple peels, there are also some medicine residue."
After saying this.
Zhou Sese and Sheng Xijiang just walked to the door.
After hearing this, she clenched her fingers slightly, but she forgot that her hand was being held by Sheng Xijiang, and for a moment her fingers were clenched in Sheng Xijiang's palm.
Sheng Xijiang lowered his eyes.
Looking at the two people's tightly clasped hands, he curled his lips slightly.
Sese took the initiative to hold his hand tightly.
Chen Lie also happened to see Zhou Sese, and immediately asked Xiao Zhang to go down, "Send the piglets to the other sows that gave birth to piglets to feed them, and bury the sow."
Xiao Zhang was stunned for a moment.
It seemed that no one expected that Boss Chen would let this matter go so easily.
But after all, I am paid a salary, so I still have to listen to my boss and do whatever he says.
Xiao Zhang nodded.
Just step back.
When he reached the door, he was stopped by Zhou Sese, who asked, "The only difference between what the sow ate today and yesterday was the fruit peel and medicine residue you mentioned?"
Xiao Zhang nodded.
Xiao Zhang had been taking care of the old sow since she was pregnant. After the sow finally gave birth to eight piglets, Xiao Zhang took care of both the old sow and the piglets to the point of almost developing feelings for them. But then the old sow suddenly passed away, and Xiao Zhang felt very sad.
Zhou Sese had an idea in her mind.
He looked up at Chen Lie and said, "Boss Chen, can I go to the pig farm and take a look?"
Chen Lie walked over quickly and asked, "You mean..."
The two looked at each other, Zhou Sese stopped Chen Lie from saying the next word, and nodded meaningfully.
Chen Lie quickly said, "Xiao Zhang, take this woman to the pig farm now. Do whatever she tells you to do."
Half an hour later.
The couple came back.
Zhou Sese's face looked heavy.
There was a dark cloud of anger on Sheng Xijiang's face, as if a heavy rain would pour down in the next second.
After seeing the expressions of the couple, Chen Lie knew something was wrong.
Subconsciously, he glanced inside the room. Lu Wenwen was sleeping inside. Chen Lie brought the couple out of the mourning hall. "Comrade Zhou, what exactly is going on?"
Zhou Sese lowered her voice and said to Chen Lie in a voice that only the three of them could hear, "The dregs of medicine used to feed the pigs are indeed what's left after I boiled the Chinese medicine I prescribed for the old lady, but I found that there are a few more medicines in the dregs that I haven't prescribed before, including Spring House Tripterygium wilfordii, Paris polyphylla, and Evodia rutaecarpa. The first two herbs are highly toxic, and the last two are less toxic. Mixed together, they are enough to poison a middle-aged man to death."
Sheng Xijiang concluded, "Your mother was poisoned to death."
Chen Lie’s eyes went dark, and he almost fainted as he hadn’t eaten for a whole day.
Sheng Xijiang raised his hand at the right time and steady Chen Lie's arm.
Chen Lie could barely stand.
Looking at the anger and violence that erupted from Chen Lie's cold eyes, Zhou Sese knew that Chen Lie already knew who did it. "Xiao Zhang has picked up all the remaining drug residues and can send them for inspection anytime and anywhere. Boss Chen, the next step is your family affairs. We will not get involved. My wife and I are leaving first. Boss Chen, accept my condolences."
Chen Lie watched the couple leave.
He returned to the room angrily.
Lu Wenwen climbed up from the bed. "You're like a wolf, what are you doing? Do you regret letting me go home? I'm telling you Chen Lie, if you don't keep your word, you're a coward!"
Chen Lie walked over step by step, looked at Lu Wenwen's neck, and really wanted to strangle her to death.
He asked in a low voice, "Let me ask you, did you make all the medicine for my mother?"
Lu Wenwen nodded, "I made them all myself, is there any problem?"
Chen Lie sneered disheartenedly, "There's a problem, a huge problem. Why did you add four extra herbs to the medicine you prepared for my mother that weren't prescribed by Comrade Zhou?"
Lu Wenwen: “…”
Chen Lie laughed and slapped himself hard. "Comrade Zhou had reminded me a long time ago that I should find professionals to take care of my mother. It was you, I saw you repent and be confident, and I saw you taking good care of my mother under my nose, that I...
Little did I know that you are such a vicious person. You killed my mother, and I will never let you go. Forget about going home. Tomorrow, I will have Chen Wei take you to the police station. Lu Wenwen, everyone must pay the price for what they have done. I want your life in exchange for another's."
Finished.
Chen Lie turned and left.
Lu Wenwen fell off the bed in a panic, crawled all the way to hug Chen Lie's legs, and said loudly, "I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please don't send me to the police station, please..."
Chen Lie pried open Lu Wenwen's fingers one by one, even nearly breaking her little finger. "Dream on."
Lu Wenwen collapsed on the ground. Suddenly, she thought of something and shouted as if she had grabbed a lifeline, "Chen Lie, I'm going to turn myself in, but you have to agree to one request of mine. I want to write a letter to my family. Please call Wen Nuan and ask her to deliver the letter to my family."
