Chapter 190 Food Poisoning
When Bai Jinli was persuading her, she swore: "Girl, it wasn't my mother who wanted to accept it, but Yang Youbing insisted on giving it to me. Wouldn't it be insincere if I didn't accept it?"

"Besides, you will cooperate with him to do business in the future. Mom is helping you establish a good relationship."

Listening to Mrs. Li's words, and looking at Yang Dianxian's expression of resignation, Bai Jinli said that it should be so.

Some people are willing to give, some people are willing to accept, that's right, she won't worry about it.

He really deserves to be the stupid son of the landlord's family, he always gives gifts as he pleases.

A few hundred taels of silver are given as soon as they are offered, but they really don’t know the hard work of making money, thinking that the money is all blown by the wind.

Thinking of the scene when he was cheated by Li Manman back then, Bai Jinli felt that it was nothing.

After being busy for several days, the school finally had a holiday today, so Bai Jinli took a late sleep, and after getting up, she followed Mrs. Li to the county.

Originally, she planned to come to the county by herself today, and she had already written many parts of the follow-up chapter of Journey to the West, but now the market is very urgent, and she plans to give the latter part to Yan Su today.

But before she came, she found that Mrs. Li was playing alone in a wheelchair at home, and thought she was boring, so she was hired along with her.

After all, the wheelchair is for patients, not a toy, let alone for laziness and not walking.

Bai Jinli didn't want to see Mrs. Li become a lazy old lady because she had a wheelchair, so she was not allowed to use the wheelchair more, and just stared at Mrs. Li and asked her to dance in the square dance.

No, after the dance, they dug her into the county to go shopping.

As a human, you always need to be more active to improve your body's immunity and prevent you from getting sick.

Besides, she still has some money in her hand, and she still wants to buy some clothes for Mrs. Li.

The two of them came in a carriage, and together with Lin Chenyuan, the driver was Zhuifeng.

Because he went to Zhongling Embroidery Workshop first, Bai Jinli and Mrs. Li went in and sat for a while.

Knowing that Lin Chenyuan and Yan Su had something to discuss in advance, she gave Lin Chenyuan the manuscripts of Journey to the West that she had written and asked him to hand them over to Yan Su at that time.

After she greeted Mrs. Zhong Ling, she said that she would take Mrs. Li to visit their shop.

But I didn't expect that I saw a large group of people in front of the shop from a long distance away, as well as the clamor of those people.

Bai Jinli was not too nervous, she wanted to hear what everyone was talking about, so as to speculate what happened, and see how Lao Li would deal with it.

Unexpectedly, when her mother heard that someone was causing trouble, she was the first to yell out uncontrollably.

Well, she is really a mother!
"Shaodong's family, why are you here?" Seeing Bai Jinli appear, Lao Li seemed to have a backbone, felt a little relieved for no reason, and hurriedly greeted him and opened his mouth.

"Who is this?"

"This is my mother, what happened?" Bai Jinli looked at the situation in front of her with seriousness in her eyes.

"Hello, old lady. Young master, it's like this. Our shop is running well, but this person suddenly came over to make trouble, saying that the snacks he bought in our shop had rat feces in them.

I argued with him and said that I would report to the officials, but he just ate the contents of the paper bag, and soon... died. "

Bai Jinli's eyebrows sank upon hearing this, and she nodded to show that she understood.

What's the matter?
Forcibly touching porcelain?Or is it a coincidence?
"Mother, wait for me here first, I'll go and see him." After speaking, Bai Jinli walked up to the middle-aged man, and reached out to feel his pulse.

After checking the pulse, there were really no signs of life. She touched the man's carotid artery again, but there was no response. It seemed that he was really dead.

She checked the man's body carefully again, and took out a few silver needles to check.

After checking, he asked again: "Lao Li, you said before that he died after eating snacks. Where are those snacks?"

"Young Master's family is all here. I thought something was wrong, so I sent someone to report to the officials, and even hid the remaining snacks as physical evidence."

"Well, yes, you did a good job." Bai Jinli nodded, took the paper bag and checked it.

It was filled with dried pork, and there were not many pieces left in total. She picked up a piece and looked at it carefully, then her gaze sank.

"There was rat droppings in it before? Where is it?"

"Um, well, when he was defending me just now, he reached out and picked out two pieces of mouse droppings and threw them away, so he ate the contents." Lao Li continued to speak with some embarrassment.

"Young Master, do we want to find those things too? There are too many people now, and I don't know who stomped them away."

"No, I'm just asking." Bai Jinli shook her head.

After checking the situation, Bai Jinli had almost guessed what was going on in his mind, but before he could speak, he heard the onlookers start arguing.

"Who is this woman? What does she want to do to the dead?"

"Yeah, why did she appear suddenly? Who is she? Did she come here to make trouble?"

"Fuck your mother, this is my daughter's shop, if my daughter doesn't come, who will come?"

Mrs. Li couldn't help but stepped forward and glared at the few people who spoke, and then continued to speak.

"In my opinion, it's all you gossips who are making trouble. My daughter's shop is doing well, so what are you doing all of a sudden? Are you jealous of my daughter's shop and come here on purpose to make trouble?

Let me tell you, don't try to make trouble, or don't blame me for being rude. "

"Everyone, don't get excited. This person is the young owner of our snack shop. She is checking on this person's condition. The doctor and government officials will arrive in a while. I will definitely give everyone a reasonable account and explanation."

Seeing Mrs. Li's defensive attitude, Lao Li wanted to click his tongue.

Saying this is obviously to sow hatred, but what can he do, this is the young master's mother, and she looks fierce, he can't just go there and let her shut up, right?
Dare not dare!

"I already know what happened. I am from this snack shop. I can tell you very seriously that this person's death has nothing to do with our shop."

Bai Jinli stood up and spoke very calmly.

"It has nothing to do with you? How is it possible? He was fine before, but he died at the door of your shop. Before he died, he ate the things sold in your shop."

"Oh? Then how do you know that he must have died because he ate something from our shop? How can you be sure that he didn't eat anything else?" Bai Jinli asked back.

"What do you mean by that? Do you want to say that this person deliberately took poison and killed himself in order to blackmail your shop?"

"Oh, it's impossible. Although there is a good saying that people die for money and birds die for food, but he has no reason to put his life on it for 30 taels of silver."

The onlookers sneered, expressing their disapproval of Bai Jinli's inference.

"I didn't say that. My meaning is very clear. He didn't die because he ate the snacks in the store. Didn't he say that the doctor will be here soon? If you don't believe it, you will know in a while."

Bai Jinli didn't explain too much, she just spoke lightly.

She knows medical skills and knows what's going on, but the onlookers don't know.

Even if she tells the truth now, the onlookers will think that she deliberately made it up in order to clear the store's reputation.

Besides, this person is already dead, and there is no way to save him, so why not wait a little longer, and wait for the doctor to tell them in person whether she is right or not.

Not long after Bai Jinli finished speaking, he saw the waiter in the shop leading a doctor hurried over.

Coincidentally, this doctor is none other than Old Doctor Xue from Xuanbaotang.

Xue Zimo's eyes lit up a little when he saw Bai Jinli. If Bai Jinli hadn't winked at him vigorously, maybe he would have rushed over excitedly to recognize his relative on the spot.

Seeing that old doctor Xue understood her signal, Bai Jinli couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If old doctor Xue showed that he knew her very well, the onlookers would think that she was in collusion with old doctor Xue.

Fortunately, Old Doctor Xue is not a straight man like Carpenter Tan. She can even imagine that if the person who came was Carpenter Tan, Carpenter Tan would definitely say it in a serious and suspicious way.

"Bai Jinli, what's wrong with your eyes, are they cramping?"

Ah bah, it's such a time, and she's deserted again!
"What's going on? What's wrong with this man?"

Old Doctor Xue suppressed the excitement in his heart, and after surveying his surroundings, he focused his gaze on the middle-aged man lying on the ground.

"Doctor, take a quick look, how is he?" Xiao Er didn't know that this man was dead, so he asked in a hurry.

"En." Old Doctor Xue nodded, put the medicine box on his back next to the man, squatted down and began to check the condition of the middle-aged man.

All the onlookers also stared at old doctor Xue closely, hoping to hear from him, a professional doctor, what the cause of this person's death was.

"Dead? Food poisoning, hopeless, prepare for the funeral."

After searching for a while, Xue Zimo spoke in a low voice.

"Food poisoning? Everyone heard it. The doctor said that this person died of food poisoning after eating. The people in this snack shop also said that it had nothing to do with them. It was obviously a deliberate sophistry."

"Oh, you are interesting. The doctor only said that he suffered from food poisoning, but did not say what he ate to die. Why are you so sure that he must have eaten our snacks before he died?" Bai Jinli stared at this person and sneered.

From the very beginning until now, this person has been secretly picking things up, constantly saying bad things about their snack shop, Bai Jinli seriously suspects that this person is a spy sent by his opponent.

"Then... Of course, he was fine before he came. We all saw him eat your food before he died. Why, am I wrong?"

The waiter at Shopkeeper Qiu's house couldn't help shrinking his neck when he met Bai Jinli's gaze.
