Chapter 375: Found the Culprit
Old Master Fu ignored Li Shuwan and looked at Jiang Li instead.
“Jiang Li, continue.”
Jiang Li nodded and suddenly asked Madam Wu.
“Auntie Wu, are you always alone when you cook? Did anyone else approach the kitchen?”
Auntie Wu shook her head. The Fu family attached great importance to food hygiene, so she was usually the one who took care of the kitchen.
“Then, did anyone ask you to add anything to Grandpa Fu’s food?”
As soon as Jiang Li asked this question, Li Shuwan hurriedly interrupted.
“What do you mean? Who dares to add anything to Grandpa Fu’s food and even ask Aunt Wu to add it directly? Isn’t that stupid?”
Jiang Li’s eyes moved slightly as she said indifferently, “I didn’t say to add poison…”
Supplements, medicines, and health-preserving items were all available on the elderly’s dining table, and it was the same for Old Master Fu. Although there was no problem with these supplements, it would be a different story if they were tampered with.
As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, Li Shuwan shivered. Although her movements were very small, Fu Zhongtian, who was closest to her, noticed it.
Fu Zhongtian’s heart skipped a beat. This stupid woman could not have really done such a thing, right?
Madam Wu’s eyes suddenly lit up when she was reminded by Jiang Li.
“There is such a thing!”
Aunt Wu was a little excited and pointed at Li Shuwan.
“Eldest Young Madam gave me a jar of imported ginseng powder before. She said it’s good for the old man’s body and asked me to put some in when I make soup!”
Aunt Wu’s words made Li Shuwan go crazy,
“That’s just an ordinary supplement! Aunt Wu, why are you framing me like this?!”
Old Master Fu frowned and shouted coldly to shut Li Shuwan up.
He also asked the butler to bring the jar of supplement over. Li Shuwan wanted to stop him, but she was stopped by Jiang Li.
“Eldest Sister-In-Law, why are you so nervous? If that jar of supplement is fine, won’t you be innocent?”
Fu Zhongtian’s face turned dark, but with Old Master Fu here, he couldn’t defend Li Shuwan.
When the butler came back, he brought back an empty jar, and the powder inside was gone.
Li Shuwan was overjoyed when she saw it. She looked at Jiang Li with a smug look, and Fu Zhongtian secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Madam Wu finally realized that she had used up the last bit of powder today!
She immediately felt extremely desperate.
This time, the scene fell into dead silence again.
However, Jiang Li picked up the empty jar and looked at it. It was really empty, so empty that the inside was shining.
Madam Wu said that she habitually washed the empty jar clean..
Jiang Li, “…”
“Dad, I think Madam Wu framed me and used an empty jar to fool everyone.” Li Shuwan glared at Madam Wu.
“Who said this empty jar is useless?” Jiang Li played with the jar.
“Have you forgotten about the police? Why don’t you just take it to the police station for testing? No matter how clean it is, some trace elements can’t be washed off.”
Li Shuwan still stubbornly refused to admit it, thinking that Jiang Li would not call the police.
However, she did not expect Old Master Fu to agree with Jiang Li’s point of view.
Li Shuwan was stunned. Fu Zhongtian’s expression finally changed, and he was a little nervous,
“Is there a misunderstanding?”
“If there’s a misunderstanding, why don’t we go to the police station and find out,” Jiang Li said indifferently.
Fu Zhongtian was angry. “How can we alert the police with such a small matter?! Do you have to let the entire Sea City see the Fu family as a joke?”
“If Eldest Sister-In-Law isn’t guilty, then what’s there to be afraid of? What’s there to be nervous about? Are we just going to let Madam Wu take the blame?”
Jiang Li retorted. Madam Wu did not expect Jiang Li to still think of her, and she was a little touched.
“I think you just want to mess up our Fu family!”
“This is related to the Old Master’s life. As a son, you’re not protecting the Old Master, but you want to protect your wife?”
“Enough!”
Finally, Old Master Fu spoke up. After all that, he finally understood everything, but he did not expect his daughter-in-law to be so vicious!
