The relatives of the deceased all showed a hint of panic. Thereâs such a thing? Eating rat poison and still not dying?
"So, I say this food wasnât eaten by the elderly gentleman but by you all." Yang Ruxinâs face suddenly darkened.
Gu Di suddenly stepped forward and immobilized the four people, then took the rat poison to check.
"No..." The few people screamed in terror, "It has nothing to do with us..."
"Force it." Yang Ruxin chuckled slightly.
"Please, let us go, we really didnât mean it, someone instructed us..."
But no matter the shouting, the rat poison was diluted with water and fed to the four, then the immobilization was relieved.
"Ugh..." The group collectively began to gag.
"I told you this wouldnât work..."
"Just for five hundred taels of silver, to kill my mother..."
"Didnât you also take part in the division?"
"Who knew her motherâs dishes could cure poison?"
"What to do? I donât want to die..."
"I donât want to die either... ugh..."
The conversation between the four made the surrounding people understand the truth without needing to ask; it was indeed a scam, and they began condemning them.
"Ah..." The boss started clutching his stomach and rolling on the ground.
Then the other three people also began to roll around.
However, although the pain was unbearable, they just wouldnât die; eventually, the young son and daughter-in-law fainted from the pain.
"Dead?" Lord Jiang looked at Yang Ruxin.
Yang Ruxin went over to check the pulse and then shook her head, "Just fainted from pain, one dip of cold water will wake them."
Congxin personally brought over a basin of water and splashed it on the womanâs face, resulting in her jolting awake.
"Everyone saw that, right?" Yang Ruxin directly addressed the onlookers, "Whether itâs our hot pot restaurant or vegetarian restaurant, all of our ingredients are not only non-toxic, but they can also detoxify... everyone eats grains and such, accumulating toxins in the body, and our ingredients can clean them out and help everyone detox and feel relieved..."
The crowd suddenly erupted; this was comparable to miraculous medicine, and they began clamoring to book a table, saying theyâd come once a month even if itâs expensive...
A worker-looking guy at the back of the crowd saw this and couldnât stand still anymore, turned around and ran, needing to report back to the master quickly to come up with a response to such an unexpected turn.
The four who survived death were already exhaustedly sitting on the ground, relieved to have eaten quite a bit of those vegetarian dishes earlier, otherwise, the bowl of rat poison would have surely killed them.
"Still going to report us?" Yang Ruxin looked at the few people.
"No more reporting." They collectively shook their heads.
"Since youâre not going to report, then now..." Yang Ruxinâs face suddenly darkened again and she turned to kneel on the ground, "Lord Jiang, now I want to countersue these people for their inhumanity, seeking wealth through murder, even plotting against their own elderly mother..."
"No, itâs not..." They panicked upon hearing this, hastily waving their hands and shaking their heads, "Itâs wrong..."
"It was all the boss coupleâs idea, itâs not our fault..."
"How is it not your fault? You were the one who put the rat poison in the bowl..."
But no matter how they bit at each other or cried for injustice, they couldnât stop themselves from going to jail.
