Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 323 Lying Comes Out of His Mouth
"Don't say you don't believe me, I don't believe it either." Wang Chunjuan sneered and continued, "I know Tao Qiuyi's timid and cowardly nature. Even if you gave her ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare to poison someone."

Tao Qiuyi was raised by her, so she knew her personality best.

Tao Qiuyi, who survived her suicide attempt by jumping into the river, seemed like a different person, and her courage had grown. But she probably still wouldn't dare to poison someone.

"Wei Laosan said that Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi poisoned Wei Laoda, but they were probably wronged."

"Why did Wei Laosan frame them?" Huang Lingyu asked, frowning.

Wang Chunjuan scoffed dismissively. "What else could it be? When the Wei family divided their property, Wei Jingyuan took two rooms. Wei Laosan and Wei Laoda lost two rooms. How could they be content with that?"

"For the sake of two rooms, Wei Laosan and Wei Laoda conspired to frame Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi, saying they poisoned Wei Laoda." Huang Lingyu glanced at the house behind her, her face full of disgust.

She found it hard to believe that Wei Laosan and Wei Laoda had framed Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi over two houses.

"The eldest and third eldest Wei's goal is to drive Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi out of the Wei family. What excuse they're making is not... Hey, hey, where are you taking me?" Before Wang Chunjuan could finish speaking, Huang Lingyu grabbed her wrist and dragged her out.

"Let's go to the Wei family's house to see what's going on." Huang Lingyu pulled Wang Chunjuan along and quickly walked out of the Huang family's courtyard.

As soon as the mother and daughter stepped outside, they encountered a neighboring woman coming out of the yard next door.

"Hey! Chunjuan, Lingyu, where are you and your daughter headed?" a neighbor woman asked with a smile.

Huang Lingyu naturally wouldn't tell her neighbor that she and her daughter had gone to the Wei family to watch the excitement.

But Wang Chunjuan would say, "I heard that Wei Laosan went back to the village to find the brigade leader, saying that Wei Jing and Tao Qiuyi were going to poison Wei Laoda. He's on his way to Wei's house right now, and Lingyu and I are going to go and see what's going on."

"We're all from the same village, we should be united and friendly. Sister-in-law, where are you going?"

The neighbor woman replied, "What a coincidence! We were thinking the same thing. I also heard about it, so I was planning to go and see."

Upon hearing the neighbor woman's reply, Wang Chunjuan happily said, "That's great, let's go together."

The two women hit it off immediately and decided to travel together.

Huang Lingyu listened to the conversation between her neighbor and her mother, and felt speechless.

These two are utterly hypocritical.

They were just there to watch the fun, but they had to come up with a high-sounding reason, calling it "unity and friendship."

The three hurried along and finally arrived at the Wei family's courtyard a few minutes later.

By this time, a large crowd had gathered outside the Wei family's courtyard. Especially at the entrance, there were layers upon layers of people.

There were discussions, speculations, and some people simply watching the spectacle without saying a word.

Wei Jingyuan stood at the gate of the courtyard, the gate behind him was closed.

Wei Laosan was filled with righteous indignation, spitting as he spoke about Wei Laoda's situation in the hospital.

Finally, Wei Laosan said with great sorrow, "Jingyuan, you have truly disappointed us. No matter what, we are all family. How could you poison your uncle?"

After Wei Laosan finished speaking, Wei Jingyuan said expressionlessly, "No matter what I say now, Uncle San won't believe me, and he'll think I'm just making excuses. Since that's the case, I won't say any more. I'll just ask Uncle San two questions."

Seeing Wei Jingyuan's calm and unhurried demeanor, Wei Laosan had a bad feeling.

But with so many villagers in front of him, he couldn't very well not let Wei Jingyuan ask.

“Ask away,” Wei Laosan said, then quickly added, “No matter what you ask, it doesn’t change the fact that you poisoned your uncle.”

Wei Laosan gave him a "I'm doing this for your own good" look. Wei Jingyuan remained noncommittal to Wei Laosan's words. "My first question is, Uncle, have I visited Uncle in the hospital these past few days?"

"No, you've never visited your uncle even once." Speaking of this, Wei Laosan was filled with anger again.

It was clearly Tao Qiuyi who beat her older brother so badly he ended up in the hospital.

Wei Jingyuan, as Tao Qiuyi's husband and a member of the Wei family, not only failed to discipline Tao Qiuyi, but also never even visited his uncle in the hospital once.

They really aren't afraid of what the villagers will say.

Wei Jingyuan was satisfied with Wei Laosan's answer, but he didn't show it on his face. He continued, "Second question, since I haven't visited my uncle in the hospital..."

"Of course I never brought food to my uncle, so how could I have poisoned him?"

Qiuqiu was still sleeping inside. He got up early, ate breakfast, and then sat in the yard weaving a winnowing basket with bamboo.

He could hear them talking even before they reached their yard.

By the time everyone arrived at the courtyard gate, he had already overheard the gist of their conversation.

To say that he and Qiuqiu poisoned their uncle is truly a case of trumped-up charges; when someone wants to find fault, they will always find a pretext.

After hearing Wei Jingyuan's question to Wei Laosan, the crowd who had been gathering for the fun finally realized what was going on.

Yes, Wei Jingyuan didn't visit Wei Laoda in the hospital, so naturally he didn't bring him any food. How then did Wei Laoda get poisoned by Wei Jingyuan?
Seeing that everyone was about to side with Wei Jingyuan, Wei Laosan was anxious.

In her haste, she blurted out without thinking, "You didn't visit your uncle in the hospital, but you asked me to bring him some food."

As soon as the lie was out of his mouth, Wei Laosan regretted it.

Wei Jingyuan sneered. He really didn't expect his third uncle to lie so easily.

Before Wei Jingyuan could answer, the door behind him opened.

Tao Qiuyi came out, a smile on her pretty face. "Third Uncle, when did our Jingyuan ask you to bring food to the hospital for Uncle? What did you bring? Braised rabbit with radish?"

"Did I wake you up?" Wei Jingyuan bent down slightly and whispered to Tao Qiuyi.

"Hmm," Tao Qiuyi responded, she had indeed been woken up by the noise of these people. She said softly, "What I said last night has come true."

She said last night that this matter was not over. Sure enough, today Wei Laosan brought a group of villagers back to denounce him and Wei Jingyuan, using the same absurd excuse.

"Mm," Wei Jingyuan replied.

When Tao Qiuyi mentioned braised rabbit with radish, Wei Laosan couldn't help but shudder.

Last night, he brought rabbit meat to the hospital. Just as he was about to eat it, Aiguo started complaining that he needed to use the restroom. He had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and take Aiguo to the restroom first.

When I got back, I saw my older brother eating the wild rabbit meat he had brought.

As he rushed over to grab it, his older brother suddenly collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

It's obvious they've been poisoned.

He called a doctor to examine him, and the doctor said it was food poisoning. He's still terrified; if he had eaten wild rabbit meat on the road, he would be the one lying in the hospital now.

On the other hand, who could have imagined that the rabbit meat he took from Wei Jingyuan's pot would be poisoned?
