Chapter 373: Meeting Madam Wu For the First Time
Old Master Fu called for Jiang Li to sit beside him. Jiang Li sat obediently, even though she was almost pierced by Fu Zhongtian’s fierce eyes.
Jiang li sized up the Fu residence and asked in puzzlement, “Where is Madam Wu? Why don’t I see her?”
When she suddenly mentioned Madam Wu, Old Master Fu realized that the important person in this matter was not in the hall.
Old Master Fu coughed twice and asked Li Shuwan where Aunt Wu was?
Before Li Shuwan could answer, Madam’s sharp but not mean voice came from afar. It could only be said that her voice was relatively soft, which was why it was so sharp. This voice reminded Jiang Li of the voice of the teacher in the violin classroom next door when she was young.
Jiang Li was even more curious about who this Madam Wu was.
Madam Wu was wearing an apron. She was probably only 1.6 meters tall. She looked like an ordinary middle-aged woman, but her eyes were dark. Although her figure might have been a little deformed, she could still see her beautiful appearance from before.
Madam Wu came over with a smile. When she saw Old Master Fu, she quickly greeted him.
“Old Master Fu, you’re back. I just made dinner. It’s time to eat.”
However, no one moved, which made v feel a little strange. Then, she realized that there was an unfamiliar face sitting in the hall.
It could not be considered a stranger. Auntie Wu had seen a photo of Jiang Li before. When she saw the photo, she felt that this girl’s looks were really harmful. If she looked like this, it would make a man’s heart confused.
However, the real person was even more beautiful. Jiuxiao was lucky to have married such a young and beautiful girl.
Then, she looked at Jiang Li’s body. Her big butt and breasts were also not bad. Well, she could give birth to a big, fat child in the future!
Jiang Li felt a little awkward being stared at by Madam Wu. Madam Wu had a special relationship with Fu Jiuxiao, so Jiang Li did not dare to glare at her.
Fortunately, Old Master Fu broke the awkward situation first.
“Madam Wu, I have something to ask you.”
“What is it?”
Only then did Madam Wu shift her gaze away from Jiang Li. She wiped the dust off her hands with her apron and stood respectfully to the side.
“Did you poison my food?”
“Huh?”
Jiang Li,”…”
Did he have to be so direct?
Old Master Fu’s words were like a bolt of lightning, bombarding everyone until they were a little dumbfounded.
Madam Wu did not react in time. It was not until Old Master Fu asked again that Madam Wu widened her eyes. She could not believe it, and her voice was a few degrees sharper.
Jiang Li could not help but turn her ears around.
“Old Master, what are you saying?! How could I do such a heartless thing? !”
As Madam Wu spoke, she wiped her tears with her apron. She felt very wronged.
Fu Zhongtian also did not seem to understand. He looked at Old Master Fu and did not know why Old Master Fu would suddenly do such a thing.
“Dad, what are you talking about? Madam Wu has worked for our family for so many years. How could she do such a thing?”
“Yes, yes.” Li Shuwan also nodded and agreed somewhat nervously.
Jiang Li was a bit puzzled. Could it be that Fu Zhongtian really did not know? After all, the first person that Jiang Li suspected was Fu Zhongtian.
“I didn’t ask you. Don’t interrupt!” Old Master Fu asked the butler at the door, “Is the doctor here?”
“Yes, Old Master.”
“Okay.” Old Master Fu stood up with his walking stick and walked to the dining area with vigorous steps.
“Invite him here. Jiang Li, you come here too.”
Jiang Li walked over obediently with a calm expression.
Fu Zhongtian had suffered too many losses from Jiang Li, so when he saw Jiang Li’s nonchalant look, he felt even more uneasy.
It was so late, and Jiang Li was not at the hospital with Fu Jiuxiao. What was she doing at the Fu family’s old residence?
The family doctor did not know what had happened after coming over, but he could feel the heavy atmosphere as soon as he entered.
The doctor could not help but shiver. He did not know what he was going to do, and the butler came to get him. He did not even have time to ask why Old Master Fu was looking for him.
It was not until Old Master Fu asked him to test whether there was poison in the food that the doctor realized that someone was trying to harm Old Master Fu!
The amount of poison was small, so normal instruments could not detect it. However, Ban Yue told them a simple method, which was to use chlorine water to drip on it. If black smoke appeared, then the results would naturally be known.
Although the poison was very difficult to detect, a doctor with some experience should be able to recognize it.
As expected, following the steps Jiang Li had told them, when the chlorine water was poured into one of the dishes, a puff of black smoke emerged from the dish!
The doctor’s expression changed on the spot.
Not only because of the black smoke but also because this dish was a dish that Old Master Fu had to eat every day. No one else would touch it!
