Chapter 378 New Year's Eve Dinner (1)
Of course, Lin Fei didn't say this to A Bing. Wen Mingtang sat up from the bed, and roughly pieced together the details of the whole incident from the scattered conversations of several people.
The enshrined candles were smeared with medicine, and after being lit, they emitted along with the candle smoke, which would make people hallucinate after smelling them.
Wen Mingtang reached out and touched his throat, thinking of his bewitched behavior in front of the mourning hall, he couldn't help but smile wryly. I thought it was because I saw Lao Yuan lying down and thought of "myself" in the dream, and I couldn't get out of control for a while, but I didn't realize that my emotions couldn't be out of control, it was man-made.
The medicated candles are mixed in with the normal candles, and which candle you light is entirely up to luck, and in this case... if you get tricked, it is pure bad luck.
It can be seen that the person who did this didn't care who the living person was. What he was really targeting was Lao Yuan who was lying there.
It's really heart-wrenching! Even if you die, you will be slandered with such a bad name, and you will have no peace.
Wen Mingtang walked around the screen and walked out. Because everyone came quickly when the incident happened, she didn't hurt her throat, but there were still some scars on her neck, which would disappear on their own after two days.
Not a big problem.
"Sedative medicine three times a day, at least three days!" Seeing Wen Mingtang coming out from behind the screen, Lin Fei was not surprised, he had heard the movement on the bed behind the screen just now.
Wen Mingtang looked at the pile of tranquilizers piled up on the case, sighed, but nodded in response.
The problem is not serious, but this medicine still needs to be taken.
Seeing her coming out, Ah Bing hurriedly asked her if she was okay.
Out of the corner of Wen Mingtang's eyes, Wen Mingtang caught a glimpse of the slow-talking old doctor rolling his eyes and moving his lips, as if he was saying, "Everyone is up, and I'm asking if there's anything wrong? Is there anything serious?" ?”
Wen Mingtang couldn't help pursing his lips and wanting to laugh when he saw this: This old doctor is an honest person who disdains polite words.
Shaking his head at A Bing, saying that he was fine, Wen Mingtang asked him, "How about the glutinous rice balls?"
A Bing said: "The glutinous rice **** are boiling medicine. She...she feels uncomfortable, and always feels that she has hurt you."
"What does this have to do with her? It's the bad guys who hurt people." Wen Mingtang said to A Bing, and then thanked the old doctor.
The old doctor nodded, told her about the stuttering taboos of taking medicine, and then left.
After the old doctor left, Wen Mingtang touched his neck, walked up to Lin Fei, and solemnly bowed to him: "Just now...Thank you Lin Shaoqing."
Thinking about her behavior in the mourning hall, she would be afraid even if it were different. Under such circumstances, he was the only one who came over and stopped her in time.
If Lin Fei hadn't appeared in time, there would never have been only these two scars on her neck, and her throat might have been injured.
When a person sees something "frightening" at first glance, it is instinctive not to dare to act when frightened. Those who can not shy away from fearing that they will be stained with "theories of ghosts and gods" and come forward in time are very few.
Not to mention, this is still in Dayong, Wen Mingtang is a little more grateful in his heart.
Lin Fei's eyes fell on the scars on her neck. Although she dealt with the stove on a daily basis, her body was not touched by "stove ash" at all, and the exposed skin on her neck was as white as jade. Originally it should be extremely beautiful, but because of the two scars, it looks a little shocking.
What happened in Dali Temple? Does the fact that her house was turned over count? Wen Mingtang thought to himself, but then shook his head in the bottom of his heart: Lin Fei had already reminded her before, so this matter is naturally not counted.
It is nothing new for someone to sneak into Dali Temple, but...
After A Bing was anxious to see the glutinous rice **** and left, Wen Mingtang explained the troubles encountered by Ji Caimai: "...I originally wanted to settle this matter years ago, but I didn't think about it. It's so harsh there!"
Lin Fei seemed a little surprised by this, raised his eyebrows, and asked Wen Mingtang: "Is there really no approval from the internal affairs yamen? Is there a note of disapproval?"
Wen Mingtang nodded and said, "Of course there are, it's at Ji Caimai's place."
Ru Ji Caimai, who has experienced in this kind of people's hometown, knows the truth of "words are not proven".
If it is not the case, there is no evidence for the words and no written evidence. Is it okay to want the people from the internal affairs office to testify and prove their own mistakes?
After Wen Mingtang said "There is a note", Lin Fei nodded and said: "I will let Zhao You go to Ji Caimai's place later on, and you don't have to worry about this matter."
Wen Mingtang bowed his head and responded, he was completely relieved that this matter was taken away by Lin Fei.
If it is true as Ji Caimai said, the internal affairs yamen are so indiscriminately strict, it is too rampant, and has already made countless enemies.
There is no need to worry about such a rampant person, even if the other party is His Majesty's adoptive mother. The ones who should be really careful are those villains who wait for everything to be wrong and hide in the dark.
What she was afraid of was never someone searching her house, but why her house was searched.
What exactly does Du Lingmou want? Wen Mingtang didn't know that these things were only the tip of the iceberg.
After talking about this with Lin Fei, the two left the house, Lin Fei went to find Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu, and Wen Mingtang went to the kitchen to meet the glutinous rice balls.
Entering the kitchen, Tangyuan hugged her and blamed herself for a while and shed tears. Wen Mingtang took a lot of effort to comfort Tangyuan.
Although Lao Yuan died because of the case, he himself had little to do with the case. Furthermore, although there were quite a few people entering and leaving the Yuan family mourning hall, they were all neighbors of the Yuan family in the same neighborhood.
The medicine for candles is not rare, and it is not impossible for ordinary people to buy. Therefore, those who would do such things, start with candles, and attract "criticism" are mostly "acquaintances".
Since this kind of thing happened to everyone in Dali Temple, they would not stand by and take the initiative to find out the person who prescribed the medicine.
This is also their job, each performing its own duties, it is the best.
Wen Mingtang spent the whole afternoon in the mourning hall with glutinous rice **** and burning paper money to appease him. When it was time for Shenshi, he also "performed his duties" and got up and went to the kitchen to prepare the New Year's dinner.
Today is New Year's Eve, no matter what, we should prepare some New Year's meals.
New Year’s Eve is another reunion night, and those who have families have to go back to their respective homes to eat New Year’s dinner. However, people like Wen Mingtang and Zhao You, who had no home, lived here with glutinous rice balls.
These days, I don’t have the mind to arrange meals, just take a casual bite. I’m used to Wen Mingtang’s cooking-flavored glutinous rice **** with the addition of Lao Yuan, so I really don’t have the mind to eat, and I’ve already lost a lot of weight.
Although she was the one who was recruited in the mourning hall, Tangyuan's complexion was much uglier than hers!
Wen Mingtang poured the washed rice into the pot. If this continues, it won't work! Thinking about the candle, you know that there are a lot of things waiting for Tangyuan to come forward!
