Chapter 96 reveals the truth
Even if he had hidden the purchase of food from Liu Chunhua, there was no guarantee that she had seen it in secret.
This hidden danger is like a knife hanging over her head, making Liang Huanxue feel uneasy.
"Don't worry too much. There will naturally be a way to solve the problem when the time comes." Old Mrs. Liang didn't think too much about it.
When they were fleeing from famine, they had encountered robbery, but the Liang family was still able to protect themselves.
"Yeah." Liang Huanxue nodded.
It is indeed too early to predict what will happen in the future. Instead of worrying so much, it is better to focus on dealing with Shen He.
Early the next morning, many people from the village still came to fetch water.
Qin Dawei was the first one in line. When he saw the Liang family coming, he hurriedly said, "Those people yesterday might have had some problems, so they were vomiting and having diarrhea. It definitely has nothing to do with the water here. Anyway, I don't believe it."
Many people behind him also echoed, "Yes, yes, yes, we don't believe it. We know at a glance that Shen He is behind this. I saw her sneaking around yesterday. Maybe she put the poison in their bucket at that time."
"That's right! The bucket didn't have a lid, and it was dark at that time. It would be very easy for her to poison it."
"I knew from the beginning that she was not a good person. If it weren't for her, Fu Qing wouldn't have become paralyzed and Fu Shushu wouldn't have disappeared.
I heard that her prodigal son was sold to Xiaoxiang Pavilion and tortured beyond recognition. She was severely beaten before she brought him back. "
Liang Huanxue frowned when she heard this.
Fu Jixiang was actually brought back by Shen He?
How tortured must one be to not even want Xiaoxiang Pavilion?
Liang Huanxue put the water tank back to its previous position and asked them to fetch water one by one. She actually caught a glimpse of Shen He out of the corner of her eye.
"What are you doing here again? Are you trying to poison the water again?" When Nian Huayue saw her, he took a few steps forward, blocked her way, and said unhappily.
"Don't accuse me wrongly. When did I put poison in the water? It was obviously you who wanted to harm people, but you blamed me. I have to warn you not to drink the water here, otherwise you won't even know how you died." Shen He said in a sinister tone.
Since those people chose to come here to fetch water, it was naturally out of trust in the Liang family. They would never believe her provocation.
"You don't let us drink the water here, so tell me, where's the water you drink?" Qin Dawei sneered at her.
Now this is the only water source in the village, and there is no water anywhere else.
He saw with his own eyes Shen He going to the neighbor's house to ask for water.
She even drinks the water herself, yet she has the nerve to say there is something wrong with it?
Who has the problem?
Qin Dawei's words choked Shen He, and she was stunned for a long time without being able to refute.
Liang Huanxue couldn't help but laugh when she saw this.
I didn't expect that Qin Dawei was quite good at arguing with others.
Since Shen He said there was something wrong with the water, she had to explain clearly what kind of water she drank.
Otherwise, no one would believe her.
"The water I drank was naturally the water that was stored in my house." Shen He took a long time to come up with an excuse.
"Really? Then why did I see you going to Li Shuanzi's house to ask for water?" Qin Dawei ruthlessly revealed the fact.
Li Shuanzi is Shen He's neighbor. Liang Huanxue didn't expect that Shen He would be watched by Qin Dawei when she went to ask for water. Let's see what she can say now.
"I... I did that because I wanted to help you test the poison. Since you don't believe that there is anything wrong with the water, I can only use this method." Shen He's brain worked quite quickly and she actually came up with an excuse.
Qin Dawei's perspective on the problem is really peculiar. Normally, after hearing the symptoms she described, most people would sigh and think that there is something wrong with the water. After all, people who have been poisoned do have these symptoms.
But he questioned whether Shen He did this in order to murder her husband.
The contradiction was immediately resolved.
"I...how could I possibly want to kill him? I...I didn't know at first..." Shen He was at a loss for words.
If she had not said before that she went to her neighbor's house to ask for water because she wanted to test poison, she might have been able to make up a few more excuses for herself now.
“Whether there is something wrong with the water or not, I am happy to drink it. It is better than dying of thirst. Besides, there is nothing wrong with me. Is it the water or me that has the problem?
We know it in our hearts, you don't need to tell us." Qin Dawei saw that Shen He had nothing to say, so he turned around and left with the bucket.
Before leaving, he turned around to look at Liang Huanxue and smiled at her.
Liang Huanxue was stunned by his laughter and had no idea why he behaved like that.
Those who were originally hesitant, after hearing what Qin Dawei said, carried their buckets and returned to the water-fetching team.
Shen He was furious when she saw that her words did not have much impact. "Just wait and see. It seems that you will not believe me unless someone dies!"
At this time, Qin Dawei, who was supposed to walk away, came back for some reason and said to Shen He: "Don't mention Fu Qing's life. I'm afraid no one will believe you then."
Shen He's face turned pale when she heard this. "Don't worry, Fu Qing will be alive and well."
Qin Dawei chuckled, "If you say so, then I'm relieved. Fu Qing can't die, so what can be wrong with this water?"
Liang Huanxue really couldn't help laughing out loud this time.
Qin Dawei might not be a good person, but he is not as bad as she thinks.
At least when it comes to arguing with people, he is really good, and Shen He has no way to refute him.
Since there weren't that many people today, we finished drawing water in no time.
Liang Huanxue put the water tank back into the space and returned to the Liang family.
She prepared some mung bean soup to relieve the heat, and was about to serve a bowl to Old Lady Liang when there was a sudden knock on the door.
Liang Huanxue went out and saw that it was not a familiar face. She was sure that she had never seen this person before.
She frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?"
"You are Huanxue, right? I heard your grandma talk about you. Is she here? I have something urgent to see her about!" said the woman outside the door.
Liang Huanxue turned around and saw her father standing under the eaves, so she shouted, "Dad, someone is coming!"
Liang Huanxue did hear the knock on the door, but she didn't move when she saw Huanxue walk past. When she heard her call out, she knew she didn't know the person outside, so she didn't open the door and just walked past.
He looked at the person outside the door several times before recognizing her. "My little cousin?"
"It's me, it's me. Oh, I didn't expect you still remembered me!" The person outside the door was very happy to hear this call, but the happy expression only appeared for a moment before it turned into an anxious mood, "I came here to ask you for help with something."
