Chapter 116 Dead (Part [-])
Hearing the maid's scream, everyone looked over together, only to see that Mrs. Li rolled her eyes, foamed at the mouth, and slipped off the chair.

Seeing this sudden scene, the nanny next to her was taken aback.

What's happening here?
Why is it different from what was negotiated.

Madam didn't tell her that she would faint. Could it be that the doctor didn't say it seriously enough, so Madam fainted temporarily?
It can be seen that the servant girl who came with them looked panic-stricken, the madam not only foamed at the mouth, but also her face was black and blue, it didn't look like she was pretending.

Could it be that Madam has also been poisoned by some kind of poison?
Mammy's heart skipped a beat, and her complexion changed drastically. She didn't care to question Xiao Jinyue anymore, and rushed towards Mrs. Li.

No matter how they yelled, Mrs. Li just lay unconscious on the floor, motionless.

The people in the store couldn't help but look at each other, they just came in to buy some candy, why did this cause death?

The doctor frowned and stood aside in bewilderment. Although the lady got a little bit of arsenic, the amount was very small, and she vomited out as soon as she took it.

The amount of poison in that point was very low, and he had just finished his pulse, and there was nothing wrong with the lady's body, so she shouldn't have passed out from foaming at the mouth.

"Please step aside, the imperial doctor is here..."

Just when everyone was getting more and more uneasy and wanted to leave the sugar shop, the boy who was sent out by the second manager came back.

When they heard that it was an imperial doctor, everyone couldn't help but pause. Driven by curiosity, they held back the pace they wanted to leave.

Imperial Physician Zheng saw Miss Xiao in the crowd, and a flash of surprise quickly flashed in his eyes.

He was taking a rest today, and not long after he arrived at the store, he was invited by the servant to make a doctor's visit. He did not expect to meet Miss Xiao Er.

The second girl Xiao is young and has excellent medical skills. With her here, why did you invite him over?
Although Doctor Zheng was puzzled, he could see a lady with a dark complexion lying on the ground, so he walked over quickly without thinking too much.

Xiao Jinyue gave him a soft blessing, "The imperial doctor came just in time, please give this lady a diagnosis and treatment, and see what's wrong."

Doctor Zheng came forward with the medicine box, squatted beside Mrs. Li, opened her eyelids to check, felt her pulse, and picked up Mrs. Li's arm to check the pulse...

Although Imperial Physician Zheng had no expression on his face, he muttered to himself that Mrs. Li's pulse condition was really strange.

All the people in the store were quietly waiting for Dr. Zheng's diagnosis and treatment. Xiao Jinyue walked gently to Dr. Zheng's side and squatted down, and asked with a worried face, "The doctor checked before and said that Mrs. Li's body has been detoxified from arsenic. , nothing wrong. But just now Mrs. Li suddenly foamed at the mouth and passed out, can the imperial doctor find out the reason?"

Doctor Zheng just wanted to say that the doctor's diagnosis was correct, Mrs. Li was indeed poisoned by a little arsenic.

But before he could speak, he suddenly smelled a familiar and strange smell at the end of his nose.

The astonishment in the eyes of Imperial Physician Zheng flashed past. If he smelled it right, the smell just now...

But didn't the boy who invited him over just now say that this newly opened sugar shop was run by Miss Xiao Er?
But since it was her shop, and today was the first day of opening, Miss Xiao Er's move really made him, Monk Zhang Er, puzzled.

Everyone looked at Dr. Zheng with a solemn expression on his face, and his brows were tightly frowned, but he didn't say a word for a long time, and everyone's hearts couldn't help but lift up.

I don't know what happened to the lady lying motionless on the ground.

The nanny and maid beside the lady were even more nervous, swallowing and wanting to ask something, but they opened their mouths again and again, but they didn't know what to say.

Xiao Jinyue squatted beside her with a worried expression on her face. Seeing that the imperial physician was silent, she couldn't help but put her hand on Mrs. Li's nose and tried it.

The nanny was about to yell at her, but Miss Xiao quickly withdrew her hand, muttering in horror, "Prince doctor, this lady, she... seems to be out of breath."

what?
Out of breath?
Mammy's face changed drastically, and she collapsed to the ground.

The servant girl's legs went limp, and she knelt down absentmindedly.

Didn't Madam say that a little bit of arsenic is not a problem? Why are there no more people now?

Impossible...it must be that Miss Xiao Er is lying.

Thinking of this, Mammy was excited, she got up quickly, threw herself beside Mrs. Li, stretched out her index finger, and put it tremblingly under Mrs. Li's nose.

But the expected breath was not there at all.

Mammy didn't give up, she moved her finger away and put it back again.

Still not.

Tried and tried again and again, but the more I tried, the colder my mother's heart became.

"How... how did you die?" Nanny sat slumped on the ground, staring blankly at Mrs. Li's dark face.

Madam is dead, she can't even think about living again.

She was Madam's personal nurse, but Madam died under her nose, the master and the eldest son would never let her go.

Not only her, but even her whole family don't want to live anymore.

She will die when she dies, but her children are still young, how can she be willing to let them die with her like this.

It's all Miss Xiao's fault. If her father hadn't forced the master to resign the marriage, the eldest son would not be unhappy all day long, not interested in studying, and the master's work in the yamen is not going well.

Those colleagues in the Ministry of Rites are used to meeting with the wind to make the rudder. On the day of retiring the engagement, seeing the son of the Duke of Zhen Guo speaking for the Lord Xiao, the colleagues in the yamen are now ignoring the master.

The master was neglected in the yamen, and everything was not going his way. After returning to the mansion, he often quarreled with his wife, and he didn't have a good look at the eldest son.

Madam felt more and more unhappy, plus hearing that niece He Wanying's shop was burned down, and even the land was taken away by Miss Xiao, Madam couldn't bear the resentment anymore.

Hearing that Miss Xiao's sugar shop opened today, Madam decided to ruin her reputation and take back the shop to relieve her resentment.

The source of all this is Miss Xiao, who killed Madam.

If it wasn't for her, Madam would be fine.

She will not hurt the lives of the whole family.

Nanny stared at Xiao Jinyue resentfully, wishing she could pounce on her and eat her alive.

"It was you who killed our wife, I want you to pay for our wife's life..."

Mammy suddenly became violent, and rushed towards Xiao Jinyue with a ferocious expression.

The second steward standing next to Xiao Jinyue raised his foot and kicked the nanny who rushed over.

The nanny was kicked backwards immediately.

The second steward was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't show mercy.

Whether it is a workshop or a sugar shop, the second manager is in charge. He has eyes for this business. No matter what aspect it is, he will follow the second girl's requirements.

Especially the health issue, the second girl has repeatedly emphasized that this is the top priority.Under her strict requirements, the workers from the second manager down to the workshop, and even the cashiers in the store, put hygiene first.

This hygiene, not just the hygiene of the sugar industry, but the personal hygiene of all of them.
