For ordinary people, it's already difficult to complete one course in five years of university, but Tang Cuimei has plenty of clinical experience.
Therefore, they are fully capable of setting aside some time to take forensic courses.
Regardless of whether this major is valued nowadays, Tang Cuimei is at least a strong woman who truly wants to improve her abilities.
"Fifth Sister, you are very outstanding, and your classmates are also very outstanding. But you can know a person's face but not their heart, especially those who are extremely jealous. You must be careful of your roommates and try not to eat the food you eat."
Upon hearing this, Tang Cuimei realized what Xiao Jiu was talking about. "You mean the Zhu Ling case?"
Xiao Jiu's eyes widened. "Fifth Sister, you know about this case? Does that prove we exist in a different time and space?"
"What is the Zhu Ling case?" The slow-witted Tang Cuixiang didn't understand what kind of riddle they were talking about.
Xiao Jiu recalled that Hong Kong had only recently returned to China when Tang Cuixiang came. Although the incident occurred in 1994, it still took more than a year just to confirm the thallium poisoning.
1995 was the first year, and in 1998, the suspicion against Sun was dropped due to insufficient evidence. However, the case has not been closed until she came here.
Knowing who the murderer is, but due to insufficient evidence, how many people felt frustrated at the last minute?
In an era before the internet was widespread, Shi Daliang was a cook who was oblivious to the world around him and focused solely on the kitchen. It was perfectly normal for him not to know. Of course, it's also possible that he didn't live in their timeline, and the existence of parallel universes is not impossible.
Seeing everyone's curiosity, Tang Cuimei briefly explained the details of the Zhu Ling case, and the sisters then learned that there was a chemical called 'thallium', which could cause poisoning.
"That woman is so wicked! Such an outstanding girl, and she's still alive just because of jealousy? That's terrifying!"
Xiao Jiu sighed, "Not only is she alive, she's doing quite well. Later, she changed her name and ran away to a foreign country. But her fate will definitely not be good. Bad people will eventually be punished!"
"So, Jiu'er, are you worried that our Cui Mei is too outstanding and will be envied?"
“This isn’t the first case of someone poisoning their roommate. Sis, you absolutely have to keep this in mind.”
Tang Cuimei felt uneasy after Xiao Jiu said that: "Two of my roommates are from the Chemistry Department."
"But you're right, I'll be more careful in the future, don't worry."
Tang Cuixiang became more cautious because of this, after all, no one can really see through the people around you, whether they are human or ghost.
At noon, the Tang sisters gathered together, while Xiao Jiu was called away by the Tao brothers to go to the countryside to watch a movie.
Although she didn't want to go, her brothers were so enthusiastic, and she couldn't spend all her time with her sister and ignore her brothers, so she had no choice but to go.
Her eldest and second eldest brothers rode bicycles, and her eldest brother even put a thick cushion on the back seat so that she wouldn't be jolted.
The younger brother wasn't so lucky. He was huddled on the crossbar of his second brother's bicycle, looking incredibly uncomfortable, while his third brother sat behind him. There were two old-fashioned bicycles, one belonging to his eldest sister and the other to Tao Changyi.
The old-fashioned bicycles of that era were sturdy, and crucially, they all looked rather slim.
Even with so many people with me, it wasn't cumbersome at all; I felt very energetic pedaling the bicycle.
The only downside was the uneven road; it was incredibly bumpy. Even with thick cushions in the back, it felt like my butt was going to fly off.
However, before they could reach their destination, they were blocked by a crowd of people hurrying back.
"Are you going to see a movie too?" After receiving a reply from her brothers, she quickly waved to them.
"Hey, stop watching! Go home right now! Someone's died! I heard the family showing the movie is run by a commune official. They hired someone to show a movie for his old man's 60th birthday, but it caused some jealousy. Those starving people came to their house to steal their food and pushed the old man over. Now his birthday has turned into a death anniversary. It's a mess over there. Go home right now!"
"Where did these people who steal food come from?"
"Who knows? We don't know either. All we know is that their family was robbed. They were happy at first, but then things turned out like this. So, you know, you have to live each day to the fullest. Who knows if you'll see the sun rise tomorrow? There's nothing wrong with being a little selfish."
The man shook his head and walked away, moved by what he felt.
The five siblings stood there, watching people emerge one after another from the busiest street in the village, muttering curses and swearing at the robbers and thieves for doing such inhuman things.
But some people retorted, saying, "Who told them to show off so much? These days, who doesn't have someone who's starving? They're overjoyed, not only are they full at home, but they also come to provoke outsiders. Don't be fooled by the fact that they're using a birthday celebration as an excuse to collect gifts and make a fortune. In the end, they turned that money into windfall gains. They deserve it!"
Actually, things will improve once the summer harvest is over; the hardship and difficulties will only last for the next six months.
But what people don't know is that while the poor are dying of poverty and the starving are starving, these corrupt officials, when reporting yields of thousands or even tens of thousands of catties per mu, never considered the feelings of the common people.
Even when delivering grain to the state, if you weighed it at home, there would be those who bullied you and underreported the weight when you arrived at the grain station.
Doesn't all the difference in grain end up in the mouths of these scoundrels?
But you can't afford to offend these petty people, because if you do, it will implicate your entire production team.
When the time comes, the bribes and kickbacks will be so severe that they'll skin you alive.
Ordinary people have it tough, and they can only swallow their pride and suffer in silence. Who told them they weren't capable of becoming officials?
If Shi Daliang hadn't suffered physical damage in this life, with his previous life's skills, he could have easily landed the head chef position at any major factory. Even if he wasn't a permanent employee, he could have started as a temporary worker and, over time, become a permanent employee because of his delicious cooking.
Having a skill at any time means you'll never be forgotten.
But the prerequisite is that you have to be in good health.
Unfortunately, Tang Cuixiang's body is damaged and she can't lift a spoon anymore. You could say she can lift it occasionally and bear it.
If you treat flipping the wok as a future job, you will never be able to complete it.
So he was very, very disappointed, because even in the most difficult times, he had never seen a cook starve to death.
The job of a cook may not sound glamorous, but in times of scarcity, it was a lucrative one.
This is a job that's just as good as a driver or ticket seller—a secure, stable job!
Anyone who hears about a death during the Lunar New Year will feel it's unlucky.
They couldn't watch the movie, but the brothers didn't want to go back either, so they rolled their eyes.
"Let's go take a look at the river in the county town."
