Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 344 Sandalwood is poisonous (3)

If it weren't for the old acquaintance with Lu Changfeng who had known each other for many years.Shen Yuechen would not say this without any scruples.

In front of Lu Changfeng, Shen Yuechen didn't need to worry too much, because he could be regarded as half of his confidant.

Lu Changfeng is a man with excellent medical skills, a low-key person, clear eyes and few words, and he is by no means a reckless person.

From what he said, Shen Yuechen had vaguely sensed his embarrassment, and it was a waste of time, so she simply said everything clearly.

When Lu Changfeng heard the word "poisoning", he frowned unconsciously, and said, "To tell you the truth, grandma, I really think so. But I can't make a direct guess just from the pulse condition..."

Shen Yuechen's mind sank slightly, and he only said: "Then how can you diagnose it?"

Lu Changfeng said: "You have to examine all the people around Aunt Tao one by one, and then carefully check all their daily necessities, food, housing and transportation, so that you can know whether Aunt Tao's illness is caused by human beings or not?"

Shen Yuechen also knew that what he said was reasonable, but things were not as easy to handle as he said.

Aunt Tao is Zhu Jinlun's concubine and the second wife, so it's not up to the eldest wife to intervene if she wants to investigate.

Now, although Shen Yuechen is not as careful as before, he still pays attention to propriety when doing things.

She doesn't have to take care of Xiaotao's affairs, but in the end, human life is at stake.What's more, Zhu Qingyue is not yet a year old, if something goes wrong, it will be a big blow to the Zhu family.

Shen Yuechen has always had mixed emotions towards Xiao Tao, similar to sympathy and worry.

Seeing her pondering for a while, Lu Changfeng hurriedly said: "Grandma, please come up with an idea as soon as possible. If it's not poisoning, then Aunt Tao's illness may really be summer fever. I must find a countermeasure immediately , otherwise, if you are careless, it will be a life..."

Shen Yuechen stroked her stomach, nodded and said: "I know what's in my mind, please trouble Dr. Lu to stay in the guest room first, let me be wronged for a few days, and wait until I go back to the old lady first."

For this kind of thing, she has to say hello to the elders.Zhu Feng and Li Shi were delayed by the heavy rain on the road, and they had to thank time to come back. The only person she could find was the old lady.

When Shen Yuechen passed by, the old lady happened to be paying respects to the Buddha in the Buddhist hall.

Shen Yuechen didn't make a sound to disturb, but just stood aside quietly, and after she finished the incense and stood up, she saluted and said: "Yuechen pays respects to the ancestor."

The old lady was slightly taken aback, turned around to see her coming, she couldn't help but blamed with a smile: "You child, since you're here, why don't you know how to say something."

Shen Yuechen said softly: "The old ancestor worshiped Buddha devoutly, Yuechen doesn't want to disturb you."

The old lady asked her to come and sit with her, and asked someone to open the window to diffuse the sandalwood fragrance in the room.

Shen Yuechen saw that the old lady looked good and seemed to be in a good mood, so she didn't deliberately go around the bush, and directly talked about the second room and her worries.

She said everything that should be said, but she didn't say a word about Lu Changfeng's guess.

Hypothetical things cannot be convincing until they are proven.

The old lady was shocked when she heard it. She knew that someone in the second room was sick, but she didn't expect it to be such a serious thing.

The first thing the old lady thought of was not how strange Xiaotao's condition was, but how to arrange for the mother and daughter.

"Things like Summer Plague will kill people, so don't be careless. No, we have to find a place to resettle their mother and daughter quickly, and if it is delayed, we will have to implicate our family..."

The old lady got her idea quickly, without giving anyone time to react, she immediately ordered Nanny Yang to send them to the wing room in the south courtyard, where they were placed in isolation. All the bedding and clothes in the room were burned in the backyard, and the cup The bowls and dishes should also be smashed and thrown away one by one, and they are not allowed to be used again.

Shen Yuechen had expected such a reaction from the old lady, it was inevitable.

It's just that once the things in the house have been moved, it's not easy to find the poisoning utensils.

If it is really poisoned.

If you can't find the poisoned thing, you can't find the poison, so if you want to completely detoxify, it will be a waste of time.

Shen Yuechen thought for a while before he said: "Old Ancestor, Doctor Lu has just checked Aunt Tao's pulse. If it is summer plague, it is still too early to tell. In my opinion, it is better to put the person in an empty room in the south courtyard first, so that she can take care of her." Let Dr. Lu go over and take a closer look. As for Aunt Tao's place, don't move too much for now, so as not to disturb the people in the courtyard."

The old lady thought for a moment before saying: "That's fine, if there is too much commotion, it will really mess up the family."

Shen Yuechen nodded: "If the ancestor can trust Yuechen, why not leave this matter to me."

The old lady looked at her in surprise, and said: "You are pregnant, so you must not make any mistakes. Let the servants do this kind of thing, what are you worrying about?"

Shen Yuechen lowered his head: "If you don't know, Yuechen can also hide and be lazy. But now that you know, Yuechen still wants to do his part, and he can help at least. Don't worry, ancestor , those hands-on work, Yuechen will never touch it, it's just a matter of listening to it and making up its mind."

Seeing that she wanted to take care of the second bedroom, the old lady wanted to give her a chance to try.After all, she was the first to notice what happened this time.

After coming out of the Buddhist hall, Shen Yuechen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if she followed the old lady's wishes, she might not be able to find anything.

She came out on her front foot, and Yang Nanny followed her on her back foot, and deliberately lowered her voice: "Grandma, please take a step to talk?"

Seeing her following, Shen Yuechen nodded slightly, and then took her hand to the small open space behind the Gongyue Gate.

"Grandma, I shouldn't talk too much, but I just heard the meaning behind what Grandma said. It seems that there is something about Aunt Tao, and there are hidden things... There are some things that you can't talk to the old lady, but you can. Tell the old man, although the old man is old, but fortunately he still has some experience, maybe he can help the grandma..."

Shen Yuechen has been married to Zhu's family for a long time, and Nanny Yang knows exactly what kind of person she is.

She likes to leave a little bit of leeway when she speaks and handles things. Moreover, whenever she is not sure about something, she will definitely take care of it herself and find out one or two.

Nanny Yang has been by the old lady's side all year round. She is the most obedient and the most sensitive to people's faces.

Shen Yuechen clearly still had something hidden in her heart, and Nanny Yang could naturally see it.

Shen Yuechen knew that Nanny Yang was a smart person, and after seeing her see some clues, she just told the truth: "Mama's eyesight is really good, since you have seen it, Yuechen will not hide it much. Can you talk while you walk?"

Nanny Yang happened to be going to do some business, so she simply followed Shen Yuechen to the house where Aunt Tao lived.

On the way, Shen Yuechen told Nanny Yang about Doctor Lu's doubts. After she heard it, she was shocked and shook her head repeatedly: "No, no. How could someone in our house do such a dirty thing? ?”

Shen Yuechen shook her head slightly and said, "What's the matter? I'll have to check it out carefully for me to find out."

Nanny Yang sighed: "No wonder you didn't tell the old lady just now, if the old lady knew about such a thing, how could she be angry?"

Shen Yuechen said: "Wait a while, please help me to look around after passing by. Doctor Lu said, if it is really poisoned, then the utensils used for poisoning must be things that are commonly used every day."

Nanny Yang nodded: "Don't worry, grandma, I will cheer up."

Xiaotao and the child had already been carried to Nanyuan, the house was empty, but everything was still there, no one came in to touch it.

Shen Yuechen looked around the room, but felt that there was nothing particularly noticeable.

Nanny Yang personally inspected the tea bowls, cups and saucers in the house, filled them with clean water, tried and tried with silver hairpins, but unfortunately found nothing.

Although Nanny Yang used scissors to open the pillow and bedding bit by bit, and cleaned out all the cotton inside, nothing unusual was found.

Although nothing was found, Shen Yuechen still felt that something must be hidden somewhere.

Xu Shi made such a commotion that both Chai and He Yalin were alarmed.

The two of them came together, and when they saw Yang Nai and Shen Yuechen turned the house upside down, they couldn't help being shocked and said, "What are you doing? You are already sick, so how can you destroy the house too?" ?”

There was anger hidden in Chai's heart, she, the second wife, should be in charge of the affairs of the second bedroom, and He Yalin would be the one to take care of it.
Why did Shen Yuechen come here to cause trouble?Moreover, looking at this posture, it seems that he is searching for something.

He Yalin's face changed slightly. She never expected that Shen Yuechen would appear here, and she was still leading people to search the house... What are they looking for?Could it be that she discovered that thing... He Yalin's complexion instantly became a little unsightly, and Chai's current attention was on Shen Yuechen, so she didn't notice that something was wrong with her.

Shen Yuechen looked at Chai Shi and He Yalin, and smiled faintly: "It happened so suddenly, I didn't bother to inform my aunt and siblings, I'm really sorry."

Mrs. Chai glanced at her with a half-smile, "What is it? I need to trouble you to come here in person. Yuechen, you are also pregnant now, why are you still so reckless in doing things?"

Shen Yuechen could hear her displeasure, "Auntie said that Yuechen shouldn't have come to bother me. However, Aunt Tao's condition took a turn for the worse, and even Doctor Lu couldn't see the cause, Yuechen really felt strange..."

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Mrs. Chai didn't pay much attention to Aunt Tao's affairs, only knew that she was sick.

After Zhu Qingyue fell ill, Mrs. Chai specially sent someone to take her away to take care of her, leaving Aunt Tao to the doctors without any concern.

Grandma Yang interjected at the right time: "Second Mistress, you still don't know anything. Aunt Tao's illness this time is very similar to Summer Plague. The maidservant was ordered by the old lady to come here to investigate and find out what it is. The thing made Aunt Tao sick... Let's take precautions before it happens, so that no one will be infected again!"

Seeing that they moved the old lady out, Mrs. Chai couldn't help but sneered.

But He Yalin's heart shuddered, she lowered her eyes slightly, and unconsciously clenched her palms tightly.
