Chapter 104 Auntie Makes Trouble and Extorts Money
"Where's the boss of your store? Where did he go? Call him out. What the hell are you selling? You said it was nothing, but you almost ate my man to death!"
"Don't buy anything here anymore, they are all scammers! You may die if you eat it!"
"Why hasn't your boss come yet? If you don't come, I'll go to the police station and arrest you all! I'll close your store!"
A middle-aged woman made a scene in Lu Zhao and Su Yunqi's dry goods store, saying that something bad happened after she ate the package of dried medicinal materials she bought from them. The employees in the store couldn't handle this kind of problem, so they had to come to Lu Zhao, but Lu Zhao was not there, so Su Yunqi had to take his father and mother and others over to take charge of the situation.
"What's wrong, auntie? Did something happen to uncle? No matter what caused it, the most urgent thing is to send uncle to the hospital. Have you sent him to the hospital? Otherwise, I will go to the hospital with you to see uncle first. We can sit down and talk about anything."
As soon as Su Yunqi came over, he tried to comfort her, trying to calm her down, but the auntie couldn't calm down.
"You don't have to go to the hospital to see him. Just tell me how you want to solve this problem! If you can't solve it, I will never forgive you!"
She glared at Su Yunqi fiercely.
"Then what is your request, aunt? How do you want us to solve it?"
Su Yunqi asked gently, asking her what she thought first and letting her calm down. If she was not calm, there would be no way for them to communicate.
The aunt couldn't see Su Yunqi's intention and thought that Su Yunqi admitted it, so her emotions immediately calmed down. But it wasn't much, and she was still very angry.
"How else can we solve this? Pay the money!"
"He has to recuperate in the hospital for a month. What will our family eat and drink during this month? I want not only medical expenses and nutrition expenses, but also mental damage compensation and lost wages. You decide what to pay. If you are not satisfied, I will go to the public security bureau to sue you!"
"What! You didn't say anything, and I don't know if it was really because you ate our food that this happened, and you want so much money? Who can give it to you?"
Father Su said dissatisfiedly.
"Dad, don't talk yet."
Su Yunqi pulled Su's father's hand and asked him not to speak for the time being.
She looked at the aunt again and said gently.
"If it's really caused by eating our food, then our family will definitely pay for it. Don't worry, big sister. We will pay for the medical expenses, lost wages, mental damages, and nutrition expenses! We will also go to the hospital to see the uncle in person!"
She said this to the auntie and also to the customers who were watching. Because a person who was suspected to have had an accident after eating their food came out, the customers who were about to buy things were hesitant and simply watched the fun from the sidelines. No one bought anything.
"Aunt, when did the uncle have problems? What symptoms did he have? When was he sent to the hospital? What did the doctor say? What did he eat before the accident? Did the doctor say that the uncle's accident was related to what he ate?"
Su Yunqi asked slowly but unhurriedly, but threw out a series of questions, loudly and impatiently, and she was unwilling to answer.
"Why do you have so many questions? Don't you want to pay the money?"
"Of course not. Everyone is watching. I believe everyone wants to know what caused it. Otherwise, if you make such a fuss, no one will dare to buy things from our house, right?"
Su Yunqi said briskly, looking at everyone.
Everyone nodded in agreement and offered support.
"Yeah, if you don't explain clearly how can they compensate you? How can they know if the problem is caused by eating their food? If you are like this, and you want to compensate without saying anything, then everyone will come to the door of the store to make a scene. After all, there is money to be made."
"That's right. I've bought things from this store many times and they all tasted good. How come nothing happened to me? I think the dry goods here are cheap and delicious."
Although the store has not been open for long, they already have a loyal customer base, and when they encountered this incident, they couldn't help but speak up for Su Yunqi.
Seeing that everyone agreed and wanted her to explain clearly, the aunt could only answer Su Yunqi's question reluctantly.
"He was sent to the hospital last night. He was vomiting and having diarrhea and almost died. The doctor said that he was poisoned by something he ate. What we ate last night was the dried food we bought from you! The very same material package! You sold so many kinds of herbs with the dried food. You put anything in there just to make money! It must be because you mixed too many things together. The herbs conflicted with each other and became toxic. That's why my man was poisoned. If you don't compensate me, who will?"
Auntie has a good point.
Su Yunqi nodded, as if it made some sense.
"In addition to our herbal medicine package, did you eat anything else last night? After all, eating too much doesn't necessarily mean this is the cause, right?
After all, we have been selling this combination for two months. So many people buy it every day and I have never heard of anyone having any problems. Moreover, my husband ate it first. He tried it and found no problems before I dared to sell it to everyone. ”
"We want to make money, not kill people. If the food is really poisonous and people get poisoned after eating it, the little money we make won't be enough to compensate us."
Su Yunqi tried to reason with her seriously.
"Impossible! The problem is that we ate your food. We ate your food yesterday and nothing else!"
The aunt quickly denied it.
"Auntie, are you sure? Didn't your family cook anything else except cooking our herbal medicine package all day yesterday?"
"No more! This was the only thing we ate all day yesterday! So the problem must have been caused by eating food from your house!"
The aunt was bitten to death because of Su Yunqi and the others' package of dried medicinal herbs.
Su Yunqi nodded and continued to ask.
"Then, Auntie, were you at home the whole time last night, and were you always with Uncle? Could it be that he ate something in private that you didn't know about? For example, pickles or something. If pickles are left out for too long, they could be poisoned."
"It's impossible that he didn't eat anything! I was at home, I saw it clearly!"
"Auntie, did you eat all day yesterday?"
Su Yunqi took the opportunity to ask again, but the aunt was unable to react, so she spoke in a ferocious tone.
"Of course I ate. That's nonsense! Who wouldn't go without eating for a whole day?"
"Okay, since both you and uncle ate our food, why is it that only uncle has problems while you are fine? Is there a misunderstanding? After all, poison doesn't distinguish between who has it and who has it."
At this point, Su Yunqi was basically certain that this auntie was here on purpose to cause trouble.
It is possible that her husband really had an accident and is in the hospital, but it is definitely not caused by eating their food. She just wants to extort money. It is also possible that her colleagues saw that their business is too good and sent her to deliberately cause trouble, hoping to make their business fail.
