Gu Changde looked at Xia Qianqian and couldn't believe that she would poison the food.
"Mr. Village Head, why are you still hesitating? Arrest her quickly!" The man stepped forward, ready to arrest Xia Qianqian.
Gu Changde raised his hand to stop him: "The matter has not been investigated clearly yet, don't be impulsive."
"Mr. Village Head, does she know the Third Young Master? You are an honest official, you cannot be partial to her." The man's eyes flashed with malice.
One sentence provoked the people to think deeply.
This Xia Qianqian was also well-known in Pingning Town. Not only had she participated in the Jade Girl Selection, she had also fought a lawsuit. The man who insulted her reputation was dealt with miserably. Moreover, she had frequent contacts with the Third Young Master Gu, which made Mrs. Gu unhappy and she even scolded her on the street.
Will Gu Changde bend the law for personal gain
Everyone looked at Xia Qianqian with strange eyes.
Xia Qianqian felt like she was on edge. She asked, "Doctor Tong, you have tasted my dough. Do you have any questions? Please tell me."
"No problem." Doctor Tong picked up the dough and invited the people to taste it. "Everyone can try it."
Many people tried the dough, and none of them had abdominal pain or diarrhea. Sure enough, the problem was not with the dough.
But the victims did suffer from abdominal pain and diarrhea after eating the meatballs fried by Xia Qianqian, including Xia Qianqian herself.
"That's strange." Doctor Tong frowned, stroked his beard and fell into thought.
Xia Qianqian held onto the door frame: "Doctor Tong, my stomach hurts again, can you give me some medicine first?"
"Okay." Doctor Tong took out the pills he had prepared long ago. After Xia Qianqian took them, her stomachache went away after a while.
Xia Qianqian regained some strength and began to think. She brought all the ingredients from home, except for the oil pan which was stored at the restaurant.
Could someone have put something in the oil
Thinking of this, Xia Qianqian's face changed drastically, and she subconsciously looked at Gu Changsheng. Of course, he couldn't harm her, but it couldn't be ruled out that there was a villain behind it.
However, if the matter were to be revealed here, it would be disadvantageous to Gu Changsheng and would seriously affect the restaurant's business.
The perpetrator is very cunning. No matter which of the two of them gets caught today, he will be covered in dirt.
Xia Qianqian is in a dilemma: should she protect herself or Gu Changsheng
"Oil!" Doctor Li hurried over and Xia Yu ran beside him.
He had heard what happened. If there was no poison in the cloth, then the problem must be in the frying pan.
Xia Qianqian's face changed drastically. Just as she was about to tell Li Sui to stop talking, Gu Changsheng narrowed his eyes and asked, "Oil?"
"Since everyone has tasted the dough, it proves that there is nothing wrong with the dough. Then the only problem can be the oil." Li Sui said loudly.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the oil pan and everyone was whispering.
Manager Liu's face turned pale. The oil and the pot were stored in the restaurant, so how could there be a problem
Gu Changsheng cast a cold look at Manager Liu.
"I'll check right away." Manager Liu bowed, went back to the restaurant, gathered all the waiters who were on duty last night together, and questioned them one by one.
Xia Qianqian sighed and looked at Gu Changsheng worriedly. The speed at which things were developing was no longer something she could control.
"How could there be a problem with the oil? Even if there is a problem with the oil, it is still you who poisoned it." The man shouted, "Fellow villagers, let's send her to the authorities! Such a vicious person must not be allowed to continue doing business in the town."
One person took the lead, and several people started to make a fuss. The villagers all wanted to send Xia Qianqian to the government. And, they wanted to send her to the county government!
