Chapter 324 A fish slipped through the net
Thinking of this, Si Nanzhao looked at Lin Zhong seriously and said, "Uncle Lin, you have disappointed us so much. For a woman, you not only drugged us, but also poisoned Yunbei. What do you want to do? Kill me and Yunbei?"
"No, no, why would I have such an idea?" Lin Zhong immediately waved his hand and said, "Repaying kindness with enmity, I can't do such a thing."
"Really? Then tell us, what are you doing now?"
"Me?" Lin Zhong was speechless. Yes, he said that he would not repay kindness with enmity, but what did he do?
In order to meet Jiao Niang without being discovered by Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei, he drugged them.
"Tell me, why did you poison me?" Yun Bei looked at Lin Zhong and asked coldly. Lin Zhong's heart was no longer on their side, otherwise he would not have helped the evil.
"I did not, nor did I intend to poison you."
"Uncle Lin, it's already come to this, why don't you admit it?" Si Nanzhao looked at Lin Zhong with increasing disappointment. He truly regarded Lin Zhong as his own uncle and elder.
Because of the old man's relationship, they trusted him quite a bit, but what did he do?
He drugged and poisoned them, this was his way of repaying their trust.
"Nan Zhao, believe me, I really didn't poison Yun Bei. I gave her something to help her conceive. Some time ago, I told Jiao Niang that you had been married for more than a year and still didn't have a child. Jiao Niang said there was a medicine that could help you have a child. So, I asked her for that medicine, and then put it in the noodles that Yun Bei ate that day."
"Jiao Niang also told me that there would be some reactions after taking that medicine, and told me not to worry. It will be fine after a while, and then you will be able to get pregnant."
"You believe everything she says? Uncle Lin, I really want to ask you, where is your brain? Before, Yunbei said you were in love, but I didn't believe it. Now, I believe it. Do you think that if there really is such a thing, your wife would be childless?"
"Me?" Lin Zhong couldn't say anything to defend himself or his wife. He hadn't thought about it before. Now, he suddenly found the problem.
If it was really that kind of medicine, how could Jiao Niang not have a child? If she had a child, then she would be lying to him if she said she was alone.
This brings up another question: why did Jiao Niang lie to him?
Cheating for money? Cheating for sex?
But he has neither of these two. As for wealth, he only has a little salary he saved up in the past. As for lust, he is an old man, how can he be lustful?
But if it's not for these two things, then what is she doing it for?
Thinking back to Yunbei saying that he was poisoned, Lin Zhong's brain suddenly woke up and he thought to himself, "Is she coming for Yunbei?"
Thinking of this, Lin Zhong's face turned pale instantly. He looked at Yun Bei and Si Nan Zhao, his face full of self-blame and guilt.
"Nan Zhao, Yun Bei, I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this. I was deceived by Jiao Niang."
Seeing Lin Zhong's guilty look, Yunbei and Sinanzhao did not intend to forgive him, because even if it was an unintentional mistake, it had serious consequences.
If Yun Bei didn't know medicine, if she didn't have the space, she might have been poisoned to death by now.
Of course, there was another reason, which was that they were worried that Lin Zhong's so-called self-blame and guilt were just a pretense. He acted guilty because they had discovered his affairs.
If they hadn't noticed, he might have been feeling pretty proud of himself.
"Uncle Lin, you are not young anymore, how could you be deceived so easily? Now, Yunbei is poisoned, and we don't know if it can be cured. What do you think we should do?"
"How could that be? Isn't Yunbei's medical skills very impressive? How could he not even be able to cure the poison?"
"Yes, Yunbei's medical skills are great, but the poison the other party used is even more powerful. Yunbei still has no clue, otherwise why did she sleep and not eat dinner yesterday? It's because of the poison. Otherwise, Uncle Lin, how about you ask that beautiful lady for the antidote?"
"Okay, I'll go ask her why she poisoned Yunbei."
Hearing Lin Zhong say this, Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei looked at each other and said, "We'll go with you."
"That's fine." Lin Zhong did not refuse. First, Yunbei knew medicine and could tell whether it was an antidote. Second, he was afraid that he would be fooled by Jiao Niang again.
The three of them locked the gate and walked towards Jiao Niang's house.
However, what Lin Zhong did not expect was that Jiao Niang was not at home.
Looking at the locked gate, Lin Zhong felt a little embarrassed and said to them, "Nan Zhao, Yun Bei, she is not at home. Why don't you go back first and I will wait for her here."
"Uncle Lin, you should come back with us. At worst, we can come back in the evening. She should be home in the evening."
"Yes, yes, yes, she is home all night."
"In that case, come at night."
The three of them went back home. Seeing that it was getting late, Yunbei went straight into the kitchen to prepare lunch.
She refused Lin Zhong's help because she no longer trusted him.
After confirming Jiao Niang's identity and settling the matter, Yun Bei felt it necessary to find a place for Lin Zhong to live.
Yunbei was no longer comfortable keeping someone who had once tried to harm him by his side.
She believed that Si Nanzhao would not object to her decision.
Lin Zhong felt sad when he saw that Yunbei and Sinanzhao were unwilling to let him help. He knew why they were like this, but he also felt wronged.
Who knew Jiao Niang was that kind of person? Who knew her so-called fertility drug was actually poison.
Yunbei and Sinanzhao didn't care what Lin Zhong thought. They called him uncle and respected him as an elder, but he was not their real elder. Whether Yunbei was pregnant or not had nothing to do with him.
To put it bluntly, he crossed the line and meddled in matters that were not his business.
Because he was in a bad mood, Lin Zhong didn't eat much. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and went back to his room.
Yunbei and Sinanzhao looked at each other and didn't try to persuade him. No matter what happened, if you did it, you have to take responsibility.
After dinner, the couple cleaned up the dishes and the kitchen, then went back to their room to take a nap.
Lying in bed, the two couldn't fall asleep.
Si Nanzhao turned his head to look at Yunbei, expressed his guess, and then asked: "Wife, who do you think she is?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? We can see each other in the evening."
"I'm afraid that even if I see her I won't know who she is."
"Then wait for the news from Zhou Yanfang. I believe he should be able to find out about Jiaoniang's background soon. However, I think she is more likely from the Nangong family. Maybe she is the one who slipped through the net last time."
"how do you know?"
"Do you believe in women's intuition?"
