The place Qing Ning arranged for us to have dinner was a restaurant that specializes in roast goose.
It is also the famous Lion Head Goose in the south.
Yu Zhiming tasted a piece of goose head, which was full of gelatinous texture and had a good texture and taste.
"Is it okay?"
Qing Ning said proudly, "We will have this goose head dish at our wedding banquet. We will invite the most famous local roast goose chef to come to the wedding banquet and prepare it on the spot."
Yu Zhiming said, "A wedding banquet can be done with a little refinement. There's no need to be so demanding."
"It's not good to surpass the level of my brother-in-law's wedding banquet."
Qing Ning chuckled and said, "My dad has already said that our wedding banquet will be more than one or two times better than my brother's."
"Don't worry about my brother having any objections. He loves me very much, not to mention it. The most important thing is that he wants to curry favor with you, hehe."
Yu Zhiming smiled gently and said, "We are all family, so it's okay to say that we are fawning over each other!"
"Hey, do we need to decorate our wedding room? Time is running out, so we need to hurry up if we want to decorate it."
Qing Ning shook her head and said, "No need. We can just simply decorate it with flowers and decorations. We'll be moving to Huashan Second Hospital next year. There's no need to make a big fuss."
Yu Zhiming was very satisfied with this answer, which was exactly what he wanted...
At this time, on the other side of the table, Sun Lin, who was eating silently as if he didn't exist, said softly, "Doctor Yu, I just received news that the person has been released from suspended animation, but his physical condition is not very good."
"Also, tests have confirmed that it was bromadiolone poisoning."
Qing Ning asked curiously, "What kind of poison is bromadiolone?"
Yu Zhiming explained: "This is an anticoagulant rodenticide. Rats won't die immediately after ingesting it. Instead, after five or six days, they'll gradually develop coagulation disorders and chronic bleeding throughout their body, eventually leading to massive hemorrhage and death."
"The dog that man ate must have died from eating a poisoned dead rat."
Qing Ning sighed softly, "What era is this? You still dare to eat dead dogs."
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "In the countryside, dog thieves poison guard dogs for profit. They usually use fast-acting poisons like potassium cyanide and succinylcholine."
"After high-temperature cooking, the toxicity in the meat of poisoned dogs will be significantly reduced, and the probability of harm from eating them will be lower."
"Perhaps this person has eaten a poisoned dog like this before, so he has a lucky mentality."
Qing Ning said, "In other words, the dog used its own body to avenge the dog clan."
Yu Zhiming raised his hand and flicked Qing Ning's forehead, saying, "I was just making a blind guess, and you took it seriously."
Qing Ning chuckled and asked, "Is this bromine rat poison very toxic? Will that person die?"
Yu Zhiming explained, "Bromadiolone is a chronic poison, diluted by the rats and dogs. Although the man had obvious symptoms, the damage to his liver and kidneys was not serious. With proper treatment, he should be able to recover."
"But if it's delayed until the later stages, it'll be difficult to deal with. Even if the patient is saved, there's a chance of permanent damage to their internal organs."
"Those who ate dog meat need to be found as soon as possible and taken to the hospital for examination and treatment."
Qing Ning's eyes sparkled as she said, "That means you saved more than ten people today."
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Your pagoda will surely reach the sky, with countless floors."
Just then, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang.
It’s Gu Qingran calling.
"Zhiming, when will you be home?"
Qing Ning leaned over to the loudspeaker and replied first, "We're having dinner at a restaurant outside. Are you coming to our house again?"
Qing Ning heard her brother hum on the phone, and then said, "After dinner, we still need to go shopping."
"If you have something to say, tell me. If you don't, go home and be with your wife."
The next moment, Gu Qingran's depressed voice came from the phone, "Zhiming, control your wife and tell her not to answer your calls casually in the future."
Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "Brother, what's the matter?"
Gu Qingran said on the phone: "Xia Linge went to see Mr. Qin to apologize for the Ginseng Life-Sustaining Pills. He also said that it was his fault for not managing them properly and that his family had secretly copied them without his knowledge."
Yu Zhiming said sarcastically, "If this old fellow didn't have that intention, he should have completely forgotten the recipe and the production process instead of recording it for the tribe to study."
"That's exactly the truth."
Gu Qingran echoed this, adding, "The old man also said that to make up for his mistake, we can choose three of the ginseng tonic recipes that have been accumulated and passed down by the Xia family for generations."
"Old Qin said he wants your opinion on how to deal with this matter in the end."
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment and said, "My opinion?"
"The Ginseng Life-Sustaining Pill is Doctor Wang's family recipe. You guys can make the decision on this matter."
"My opinion or something is not important."
Gu Qingran chuckled during the call and said, "Old Qin said that although they were the ones pushing this matter in the capital, the Xia and Chu families' connections in the capital should not be underestimated."
"Old Qin said that they only managed to handle this matter with such swiftness and severity because they moved you out."
"So your opinion on this matter is very important."
Yu Zhiming said softly, "Brother, what will happen to the Xia family?"
Gu Qingran replied, "It will severely damage the reputation of the Xia Family Clinic. They will have to pay a fine and someone will be held responsible. It will be a serious blow to the entire Xia Family, but with their wealth, they should be able to hold out for three to five years."
Yu Zhiming thought for a moment and said, "Since we can't bring down the Xia family, my suggestion is to try to get as much benefit and advantage as possible."
"Okay, I understand." Gu Qingran replied.
Seeing that the two had finished their business, Qing Ning leaned in close to the phone and showed it off, "Brother, remember the redwood furniture I told you about that contained a lot of gold, right?"
"I went to check it out this afternoon and tomorrow, and found another mezzanine. It's very likely that there are calligraphy and paintings hidden inside."
"Maybe it's worth more than that gold."
Gu Qingran warned: "Make your fortune quietly, don't make a fuss, or the original owner will ask for it back."
Qing Ning said proudly, "How could I not have thought of this? I've already signed an agreement with the original owner..."
"Even if it's a gift, any discovery won't belong to the original owner. It all belongs to us..."
It was almost 8:30 in the evening. After dinner, Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning didn't rush back home, so they just strolled around.
This area belongs to the old city and is not a well-known commercial area. There are not many people strolling around at night.
However, the trees on both sides of the road are as thick as a man's embrace, and from time to time a historical building appears, which is also quite interesting.
Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning walked slowly hand in hand, just like a young couple in love walking on the street. They cared about the person holding hands with them rather than the surrounding scenery.
They walked around for nearly an hour without realizing it. Just as they were about to go home, Yu Zhiming suddenly heard an angry shout.
"Gu Qingning, it's really you!"
Yu Zhiming looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young woman walking towards him angrily, ignoring her companions' pulling.
"Gu Qingning, do you still remember me?"
Qing Ning carefully looked at the short-haired woman in front of him with an angry look on her face and said frankly, "I'm sorry, I don't remember."
"Excuse me, who are you?"
The short-haired woman laughed angrily, "You don't remember? You must have bullied too many people in the school bathroom."
"But you must remember this."
As she spoke, the short-haired woman unbuttoned her tightly buttoned collar, revealing a patch of white skin on her chest.
Yu Zhiming's expression froze.
There were two circular scars on the fair skin of the woman's chest, clearly caused by cigarette burns...
