Chapter 15 Poisoning
Wang Long was in a bad mood and had no appetite to eat. He wanted to go to the bathroom to wash his face to calm down.

The toilet needs to go through the kitchen. The dishes have been served long ago, and the chefs have gone to rest.

When Wang Long passed by, he saw someone inside, a man and a woman.

These two people, Wang Long, knew each other. They had been there when they were giving gifts to the old lady. They were Li Qiang, the son of Li Wenhao, the elder brother of the Li family, and Huang Tingting, his daughter-in-law.

They were a couple sticking together, and there was an earthen pot burning on the stove in front of them, and they were pouring things into it.

Is this boiling Chinese medicine?

Wang Lung didn't look much, and when he was about to walk through the kitchen without stopping, he saw a strange insect thrown into the medicine jar, which looked a bit like a centipede.

This aroused his curiosity, and he stopped, went to the kitchen door and looked inside.

The two couples had their backs to him, unaware that he was peeking.

Wang Lung knew that centipedes could be used as medicine, but he didn't know whether that colorful insect was a centipede.

He felt that the bug was as poisonous as the centipede.

The two of them were sticking together and stirring the Chinese medicine in it, laughing badly from time to time, which didn't feel like they were doing good deeds to Wang Long.

Is it...

Wang Lung had a guess.

He didn't look any further and went to the bathroom.

Facing the mirror in the toilet, Wang Long examined himself.

In the mirror, he was confused, confused, angry and jealous.

These several emotions finally merged into... cowardice on his face.

Yes, cowardice.

Wang Lung is too cowardly.

He can't even compare to ordinary people. Ordinary people have jobs, but he doesn't. He is a useless trash who eats soft food!

Compared with Wang Chenxuan, Wang Long is not worthy of carrying his shoes!

He looked in the mirror and was angry at his own weakness. He wanted to relax, but it made his mood worse. He wiped off the water on his face angrily, and walked out.

"Wang Long, come and sit with me."

He went back to the hall, and the old man sat on the side and called him over.

"Dad, are you full?" Wang Long asked. The banquet had just started and the guests were eating and chatting. It was obvious that the father-in-law didn't eat much like him.

Thinking of this, the anger in his heart dissipated a lot, replaced by guilt towards the old man.

"It's just a meal, are you afraid you won't be able to eat it in the future?" The old man laughed, and Wang Long smiled dryly and sat opposite him.

"Don't worry about the jade bowl, you are our Li family, your grandma won't blame you, and we won't blame you." The old man said humanely.

Wang Long nodded, he didn't dare to look at the old man.

He knew the impact of his incident on the Li family. This incident was destined to spread, and the Li family would become a joke in Jiangnan City, and it would also have an impact on their industry.

Fortunately, Wang Chenxuan sent a gift to cooperate with the Li family on behalf of the Wang family to make up for his mistakes.

When he thought of Wang Chenxuan easily settling his faults by himself, he felt even more uncomfortable.

"You boy, why are you still putting on a bad face?"

"Today is grandma's birthday, such a good day, why don't you be happy?"

The old man patted Wang Long, and Wang Long finally smiled. He felt that the old man was really kind to him.

Much better than his parents who were drinking and playing cards all day before he crossed.

"Now can you tell me what happened to that jade bowl?" the old man asked.

Wang Long simply told him the matter, obviously, he was deceived by that Zhang Donghan.

He had called Zhang Donghan just now, and he had already indicated an empty number.

Thinking about it now, Zhang Donghan played a huge trick on him.

His tricks, Wang Long, are already clear. He purposely wandered around the stalls in Antique Street, pretending to know a lot about antiques, to attract Wang Long's attention.

Then he lured Wang Lung to his accomplice's stall and pretended to be attracted by the jade bowl to trick Wang Lung into taking the bait.

He put so much effort into acting so realistically, and even bargained for him, just to make Wang Long believe him and believe that the bowl is real.

And he succeeded.

"So that's how it is..." After listening to the old man, he understood the reason: "I knew you would not play tricks, so it turned out that you were deceived."

"It's all my fault that I lost my head for a while." Wang Longdao, he was right, it was because he firmly believed that he was the protagonist and that everything would go according to the novel he had read, so he was fooled carelessly.

If he got the jade bowl and checked it carefully and got someone to appraise it, today's incident would not have happened.

It is because he is too arrogant that he has fallen into the current situation.

His father-in-law chatted with him, which made him feel much better.

At this time, the son and daughter-in-law of the boss Li Wenhao walked past them with a bowl, and the bitter smell of medicine wafted all the way.

Wang Long looked at the two of them, and saw that they came to the old lady, handed the bowl to the old lady, and the old lady drank it directly after taking it.

This made Wang Long extremely entangled. He watched the old man struggling in his heart for a long time, and finally said:

"Is the old lady sick?"

His father-in-law's expression changed, and Wang Long didn't understand why. It took him a long time to realize that he didn't speak clearly.

How can I directly say whether someone else is sick?
"I'm sorry, I made a mistake. I asked grandma if she was in poor health." He quickly apologized.

"It's okay." The old man knew that he was in a bad mood today: "Grandma is in poor health. She has been like this since my father left."

"Did you see a doctor?"

"Look, I went to a lot of doctors, and they all said that she is old and her illness can't be cured, so she can only take medicine to suppress it."

The old man sighed, and it was obvious that he had worried a lot about the old lady's illness.

"Traditional Chinese medicine?"

"Yes." The old man asked, "What's wrong?"

Wang Long struggled again for a while, then leaned close to the old man and whispered, "I just saw Li Qiang and his wife making medicine for grandma."

"Yes, grandma has always been taken care of by the elder brother and his family." The old man said humanely. He has been dealing with people in the business field for many years and has a keen mind, and he has noticed Wang Long's state: "Do you have something to say?"

Seeing this, Wang Long expressed his thoughts: "I see they put a worm in the medicine...the worm seems to be poisonous, grandma is not in good health, could it be them..."

Wang Long didn't say anything more, not because the old man understood what he meant, but because the Li family was so generous to him, and he even said bad things about the Li family. belly.

It's just that he was afraid that what he thought was true. Li Qiang and his wife poisoned the old lady's medicine, and it would be bad for their Li family.

"It's not that I want to frame them, it's just that I'm worried..." Thinking of this, he added.

The father-in-law nodded: "You don't hesitate to offend the Li family again and tell me that these things are indeed for our Li family's consideration. You did a good job. If you see this kind of thing, you should make a mistake."

"You're right, they boiled poison!"

Wang Long was shocked. His father-in-law had known about it for a long time?

Looking at the calm expression of the old man, he had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that the old man was also involved in the poisoning of the old lady?
I told him that it was Zhao Yun's savior who ran in the wrong direction and gave A Dou to Cao Cao with his own hands?
