"If it weren't for your quick decision, his life would have been lost!" Ye Zhinan rambled on, fearing arousing suspicion.
Qin Yihuai eyed her coldly and continued, "Do you know what kind of poison he was poisoned with?"
"Arsenic." Ye Zhinan blurted out. In fact, she wasn't sure. There were only a few types of poisons in that era, and Qin Yihuai couldn't take it for a chemical analysis. To determine the specific toxin, she had to take it into her space for testing. But she didn't want to share these follow - up matters with the person in front of her.
Qin Yihuai stared at the person in front of him enigmatically without exposing her random fabrication.
Obviously, it wasn't arsenic! But what the poison was didn't matter. The purpose was clear.
"Let's take him back first!" With that, he pulled over a ox - cart and took the man back.
That night, Ye Zhinan was exhausted. As soon as she got home, she fell into bed and slept until Han Xiangmei woke her up.
"Dear daughter, don't be sad. If the seed drill is gone, we'll make another one." She was worried that her daughter was still sad about what had happened the day before, so she was staying in the room sulking.
She pulled the quilt and saw her daughter's flushed cheeks from sleep. She quickly felt Ye Zhinan's forehead.
"Thank goodness you're not sick."
"Mom, I'm fine." Ye Zhinan stretched. Hearing the crackling sound outside, she wondered, "What's going on outside?"
"It's your elder brother. He wants to cheer you up, so he's making a seed drill."
Before her mother finished speaking, Ye Zhinan rushed out.
With her elder brother's craftsmanship, forget it!
"Brother, you take a rest. Let me do it!" As soon as Ye Zhinan ran into the backyard, she was stunned by what she saw.
Ye Yingfeng had actually made a seed drill, a brand - new and complete seed drill!!!
"Sister, try it quickly and see how I did!" Ye Yingfeng seemed even more excited than she was.
You know, he used to be a total klutz at handicrafts. He couldn't even split firewood properly until he had worn out the chopping block.
Ye Zhinan could only sigh that exile was a good thing. At least it had cultivated a brother who might not be very smart but was very dexterous.
"You did a really good job! I should have let you do it earlier. At least we wouldn't have to give up the chance that was already in our hands."
These words happened to be heard by Qin Yihuai who had just entered the door. His eyebrows twitched slightly, but the change was so quick that no one noticed.
"Miss Ye!"
Ye Zhinan's heart skipped a beat. When she looked at Qin Yihuai, she smiled brightly, "Inspector Qin, what wind brought you here so early in the morning?"
Qin Yihuai glanced at the sun high in the sky, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. "Chen Li is back."
"Then let's go and have a look! Wait for me a moment." Ye Zhinan went back into the room, took some medicine and gauze from her space, and then walked out of the door.
She left Ye Yingfeng alone facing the newly made seed drill.
"They don't even take a good look at this thing. I spent a whole morning on it!"
Ye Zhinan was only concerned about Chen Sheng's injury. If she hadn't used modern techniques, the man would probably have already passed away.
Actually, passing away might not be a bad thing. Maybe he could be reborn in another world, and perhaps his mind would become more open - minded.
"Don't worry. I'm here!" This time, he had misunderstood.
Qin Yihuai watched Ye Zhinan remain silent all the way with a solemn expression. He was afraid that she was worried about Chen Sheng making things difficult for her.
In fact, at this moment, Ye Zhinan was secretly delighted that Qin Yihuai could no longer see through her. How could she care about Chen Sheng?
"Inspector Qin!" A constable suddenly chased after them from behind, but as soon as he saw Ye Zhinan, he immediately stopped speaking.
"Just say it."
The constable hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, as if he was going to the execution ground, and said, "Chen Sheng wants to take Miss Ye's life!"
Ye Zhinan:......
Qin Yihuai's eyes darkened, and a murderous aura filled his eyes.
"And..." The constable glanced at Ye Zhinan again.
"Speak!"
"And people outside are saying that Miss Ye killed someone to cover up her crime!"
...Damn it!
Ye Zhinan had seen ungrateful people before, but she had never seen such a stupid and ungrateful person.
She lifted her skirt and ran towards the Chen family's house.
Qin Yihuai didn't care about anything else and immediately followed her.
If this woman rushed over like this, she might really kill someone!
As soon as Ye Zhinan arrived at the Chen family's house, she was stopped by Chen Li at the door.
"Miss Ye, please calm down!"
"So you do know it's not my fault!" Ye Zhinan was furious as soon as she saw the Chen family members.
Chen Li was speechless. His legs went weak, and he knelt down again.
This scene happened to be seen by Chen Sheng who came out.
"Why are you kneeling to her? It was she who harmed your elder brother!" With that, he covered his half - amputated arm and started running around the yard as if looking for something.
"Brother, forget it. Miss Ye is a good person." Chen Li shouted loudly. Then he whispered to Ye and Qin, "Don't worry. I've hidden all the sharp weapons in the house!"
He still wants to kill someone? Ye Zhinan's pupils shrank suddenly.
She knew that if the doctor - patient relationship was not handled well, there would be irrational patients.
Doctors must first control their emotions and stay rational.
"Your arm was amputated to save your life. It was an emergency at that time, and there was no way to discuss it with your younger brother or you."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned for a moment.
"You're just angry that I smashed your seed drill, so you cut off my hand on purpose. You said it was to save my life. I've never heard that losing a hand would cost one's life."
So he didn't know that he had been poisoned. Ye Zhinan and Qin Yihuai looked at each other. Qin Yihuai stepped forward and shielded her behind him.
"You were poisoned!"
Chen Li was shocked. "What? My elder brother was poisoned? What kind of poison was it? Who poisoned him?"
"An investigation is currently underway!" Qin Yihuai said word by word coldly, "Chen Sheng, where did you go last night? What did you do? Who did you meet?"
"Brother, you went out?" Chen Li was shocked again.
It seemed that he knew nothing.
Chen Sheng stammered and didn't dare to look at everyone. "I didn't go out. I've been at home and didn't see anyone. When I woke up, I found my hand was gone."
"Then how do you know it was Miss Ye who harmed you!" Qin Yihuai pressed on step by step. His eyes looking at Chen Sheng became even deeper.
"It must be her. She was angry that I smashed her seed drill!" Chen Sheng insisted.
Chen Li stared at him in astonishment. "Brother, you even smashed Miss Ye's seed drill!"
...
He really knew nothing!
Ye Zhinan stared at the two brothers in front of her thoughtfully, then pointed at Chen Sheng's arm.
"Blood is oozing out! You need to apply medicine, or the wound will get infected, and you'll have a high fever all over your body. If the fever gets too high and causes convulsions, it won't be good. You're not very smart to begin with." She said calmly.
But Chen Sheng would never let her treat him. Qin Yihuai took the medicine and stepped forward.
"I'll apply the medicine for you. It won't be her doing. Is that okay?"
"Brother, your arm has been bleeding!" Chen Li's worried eyes were filled with tears.
This man is really... Ye Zhinan got to know the Chen brothers better.
Seeing that the other party didn't resist, Qin Yihuai stepped forward to change the dressing.
The wound had been treated very well. If it weren't for Chen Sheng's fidgeting, it would hardly bleed.
Ye Zhinan watched them from afar. Suddenly, she had a strange feeling that there seemed to be a key point missing in the whole thing.
What could it be?
