Chapter 315: Celebrating the Festival?
Doctor Tong was preparing lunch in the yard. Seeing the three Song children at the door, he stepped forward and said softly, "Aman, is there anything wrong?"
Song Chuman directly stated her intention: "Grandpa Tong, we want to buy two roosters. Can you sell them to us?"
Doctor Tong nodded: "Of course, I'll catch it for you."
Soon, Doctor Tong weighed the two roosters and put them in the backpacks of Song Chuman and Song Chuhuai respectively.
Song Chuman asked, "Grandpa Tong, how much is it in total?"
Doctor Tong said, "In the city, roosters are about thirty coins per catty. I just weighed them, and two of them weigh ten catties. You should give me three hundred coins."
Upon hearing this, Song Chuman readily gave the copper coins.
Thirty cents per pound, the price is indeed fair.
Seeing the three children turning around and about to leave, Doctor Tong hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out, "Aman, have you had any problems with the Shi family recently?"
Song Chuman thought of what happened that morning and pretended to be aggrieved. "It's not a big deal about the festival, but this morning the Shi family wanted to go on the Yang family's fishing boat with me, but I refused. They seemed to hate me at that time, as if they wished I were dead."
Doctor Tong's doubts were suddenly resolved, and he warned, "So that's how it is. From now on, it's best for you to stay away from the Shi family. Don't approach them without permission. If you meet anyone from their family, avoid them if possible."
Today he went to look for the antidote, but he couldn't find any herbs in the Xiaocaogou that Shi Quanzhi mentioned.
Later, Shi Quanshun came over and said that his second brother had said the wrong place, it was Taohuagou.
He immediately felt that something was definitely wrong.
Later on the way back, he recalled the route and found that after the Shi family found the poisonous snake, if they went home, they would never pass by the cave near the Song family's main house.
Moreover, when he questioned the Shi family, they were evasive and their words were inconsistent, which showed that they felt very guilty.
He found the herbs and discovered that Shi Jia Dalang had become a living dead. Then Shi Jia Erlang and Sanlang had another big fight.
Combined with what Song Chuman said just now, it can be seen that the Shi family caught the poisonous snake today, and it is estimated that the first person they wanted to deal with was the eldest wife of the Song family.
Unexpectedly, a poisonous snake accidentally ran out during the journey and harmed Shi Jia Dalang.
Shi Jia's Erlang and Sanlang had a disagreement over whether to save their eldest brother.
Song Chuman pretended to be innocent and said, "Well, I know. I know some people are spoiled by their families. If you don't give in to them, they will hold a grudge. I know the Shi family has something against our family."
Doctor Tong nodded with a complicated expression: "You are right to think so."
Song Chuman expressed her gratitude a few words, then turned around and left with her brother and cousin.
On the way, He Xiaoshuang asked, "Ah Man, what did Grandpa Tong say just now?"
Song Chuman said, "It means exactly what it says. Cousin, you are not familiar with the people in the village, and you don't know who are the Shi family members. If you see someone you don't know, just avoid them. There are many bad people in the village, and I'm afraid they will hurt you."
He Xiaoshuang nodded with a confused look on his face.
But just when they were halfway there, they saw the Shi family members anxiously pushing a cart with a person lying on it, coming towards them from the opposite direction.
When Shi Quanzhi and Shi Quanshun saw Song Chuman, they immediately forgot about sending Shi Quanjian to the city for medical treatment.
Shi Quanzhi roared, "Song Chuman, you caused my eldest brother to be poisoned, you must take responsibility."
