Although Huang Fei's investigation did not make substantial progress, he did get some special information.
Let’s make a list one by one.
According to what he said, Shen did go to the vegetable market, but she didn't have much social activities and just wandered there aimlessly.
Taking this opportunity, Huang Fei learned some little-known information from several people who were familiar with her.
Recently, Mrs. Shen adopted an orphan whose parents both died, and also arranged to live in her small courtyard.
In the eyes of others, her move was a bit unwise.
How do you say this?
When you are young, you don’t want to adopt, but when you are old, you want to raise the next generation. This is obviously not in line with human common sense.
The older a person gets, the more limited his energy is. How can a half-dead person take good care of his children?
However, Shen had his own ideas.
It is precisely because I am older that I should think more about my future affairs.
When I am a hundred years old, who will throw a funeral pot for me?
Let...Qi Xiao from the Qi family?
That is absolutely inappropriate!
He is the master and he is the servant. How can there be a master in the world who breaks a basin for his servant? Even if others have the heart, I don't have the qualifications.
Therefore, it is better to raise one yourself.
Moreover, now, with medical care, food, clothing, and schooling free of charge, there doesn’t seem to be much pressure.
So Shen adopted a child.
For a long time after that, everything was business as usual, nothing out of the ordinary.
Until a few days ago, Shen's child suddenly disappeared for no reason, and no one knew where he had gone.
At first, the woman searched for it for a while, but to no avail, she gave up.
It is not uncommon for children to get lost, it happens from time to time.
But the strange thing is that Shen didn't choose to report the crime.
She has been with the Qi family for many years. Even if she does not know the law, she should know how to ask the government for help.
Besides, with her special relationship, which yamen would dare not to file a case?
Although she is a servant, she is still a member of the Qi family. Even if the magistrate of one party sees her, he has to call her aunt respectfully.
She reported the crime, and no one dared to make excuses.
Therefore, Huang Fei was puzzled by her indifferent behavior.
This kind of person can happen to anyone, but it can never happen to the Qi family.
Strange indeed!
"Yes, why didn't she report the crime? I just need to put pressure on her and it's possible to find her child back. Why doesn't she open her mouth?"
"Oh? Mr. Qi also thinks this is weird?"
"This is puzzling, how can I not be surprised?"
"How about I investigate further?"
Originally, Qi Yu didn't want to cause trouble, but things happened to happen, so he couldn't let it go.
The affairs of one's own family are important, and the affairs of other people's families are equally important. I have always advocated putting the people first, how could I be biased?
Besides, what was lost was a living person, so we couldn't just turn a blind eye.
"Brother Huang, let me keep an eye on the Qi family. You can go find out the whereabouts of this child."
"Okay! I'm leaving!"
"..."
Judging from the current known situation, Shen's performance is not obviously critical to the poisoning.
Therefore, Qi Yu put aside his doubts about her and started investigating from other aspects.
However, no suitable clues could be found in other aspects, so it seemed that it could only be shelved for the time being.
Soon, it was noon.
Qi Yu drank a pot of refreshing strong tea and then planned to return to the hospital.
His wife and children all live there, how can he not feel concerned?
Just as he was about to lock the door and go out, he suddenly saw Mr. Shen rushing back.
What surprised Qi Yu was that her vegetable basket was empty, not even a single vegetable leaf.
Eh~~
She went out early in the morning and didn't return in a hurry until now. How could she get nothing at all after such a long time?
"God's Coming"
Could it be that the vegetable market was so popular that supply exceeded demand, so she didn't get any vegetables?
Seeing the confusion on Qi Yu's face, Shen seemed slightly panicked.
After a simple nod, she hurriedly lowered her head and left.
"Auntie, did you go shopping just now?"
"Ah... Sir, yes. However, because the price of vegetables today is too expensive, I am not willing to spend money to buy it. Otherwise, I will be scolded by the old lady again."
"So that's it."
Seeing her panic, Qi Yu couldn't help but feel more confused.
After so many years together, I have never seen her so afraid of me. Why is it suddenly abnormal today?
Is there something really wrong with her...?
If there are any problems, you will know after trying it!
"Auntie, I'm extremely hungry now. Please cook me a bowl of egg noodles."
"Uh...Why don't you go out to eat, sir? Oh, I mean, I'm too slow, I'm afraid I'll waste time and starve you."
Qi Yu stroked his beard and said with a slight smile: "It's just time, what can't we wait for? Just do it, auntie."
Seeing that she couldn't resist, Shen had no choice but to nod in agreement.
After a little leaning, the smoke slowly rose up.
At the same time, there is a rich aroma of stir-fried food.
Mrs. Shen was busy in the kitchen, while Qi Dalang hid in the dark and watched.
At the beginning, Shen's movements were normal, but after the noodles came out of the pot, there were some slight abnormalities.
I saw that after thinking about it again and again, she actually added a little unknown seasoning to the bowl.
The contents of the small bottle seemed to be pepper, but if you look closely, it didn't look like it.
What is this?
Seeing this, Qi Yu couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart. At the same time, an instinctive sense of vigilance also came to mind.
Tell me, is there anything fishy about that condiment?
Could it be that...
He wanted to go back to his thoughts, but Qi Yu's expression remained as usual. He saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, but it was invisible to him.
"Master, the noodles are ready. Please use them slowly."
"What a useful lady!"
Qi Yu picked up the noodles with chopsticks, but did not open his mouth to eat.
While blowing hot air, he asked seemingly unintentionally: "Auntie, I heard that you recently raised a baby. Is this true?"
Zai Zai is a general term for children in the South, and they are basically all called them like this.
However, it seems a bit incongruous for someone like Shen who is in his old age.
As everyone knows, Qi Yu asked this intentionally.
The purpose is naturally to force her to make a corresponding defense.
