Chapter five hundred and seventy seventh separate interrogation
"Wait a minute! Erlang and Sanlang must be on their way back."
Gu Chengyu felt that this time was still enough to wait. It was only about two hours, and the body should not be damaged.
The few people returned to the main room, and Gu Chengyu asked Uncle Gu and Gu Chengli who had arrived to stay.
He wanted to interrogate Wang Yueniang and the others, but the incident had not yet been explained clearly.
"Tell me everything from beginning to end." Wang Yueniang was interrogated first, while the other two were waiting outside.
Wang Yueniang left the west wing and felt that her chest was no longer so tight.
She glanced at Gu Chengyu and suddenly felt panicked.
"You are holding a banquet in the yard. I had prepared the food and was going to come out to help you. But I thought that the head of the house and the two people had not eaten in the morning, so I wanted to knock on the door and let them come out to eat. Who would have thought that as soon as I walked to the door?
, I heard shouting, and I didn’t know what was going on. When I opened the door and took a look, I saw this look.”
Wang Yueniang calmed down and then told the story of how she discovered this incident.
Uncle Gu was very confused, "They live in one house?"
There are four rooms in the west wing. Why do three people live in one room?
Wang Yueniang was a little embarrassed by Uncle Gu's words, and even Gu Chengyu touched her nose.
"Originally, Mrs. Wang and the head of the house were staying in the house these two days, but last night Mrs. Li went in and didn't come out."
Wang Yueniang spoke hesitantly, with a bit of embarrassment on her face.
Uncle Gu blushed and realized that he had asked a stupid question.
He coughed lightly and waved his hand, signaling Gu Chengyu to continue.
"Did you know that my second brother had taken tiger whip powder before?" Gu Chengyu stared at Wang Yueniang with his eyes fixed on this question. This question is very crucial.
Wang Yueniang folded her hands together, and Gu Chengyu could see that she had used some force.
Looking at his face again, he looked very calm.
"I know, I rarely took it before, not much. After Mr. Li got married, he sometimes took it. I have seen the medicine several times, and it comes in a porcelain bottle."
Wang Yueniang had bought this kind of medicine before, so she was very impressed with this kind of porcelain bottle, but she couldn't afford such expensive ones back then.
"How could you have seen his medicine lying around?" Gu Chengyu asked in a deep voice.
Logically speaking, this kind of private medicine should be properly stored. Why would it be left randomly?
"I tidied up his house. Except for the locked cabinet on the kangqin, I scrubbed everything else."
She had indeed come into contact with Gu Chengyi's porcelain bottle filled with medicine. She didn't want to say it at first, but who was Gu Chengyu?
If he noticed it, Gu Chengyu might think that he had a guilty conscience.
Gu Chengyu thought for a moment. He didn't see the medicine bottle when he entered the house just now. Could it be that he had put it away?
"When did you see that porcelain vase? How much was left in the porcelain vase at that time?"
Wang Yueniang paused, "I saw it the day before yesterday. He brought it back when he first came back. There is still half a bottle of medicinal powder in the porcelain bottle."
Gu Chengyu looked at Wang Yueniang's calm face and asked the last question.
"When he takes medicine, do you prepare it for him, or does he prepare it himself?"
Wang Yueniang was shocked. Did she suspect that she had given Gu Chengyi more medicine?
She looked a little panicked and waved her hands repeatedly: "He did it himself, I didn't help him let it go."
Gu Chengyu stared at Wang Yueniang with his eyes, and Wang Yueniang felt as if Gu Chengyu's eyes were poking two holes in her body.
After a long while, Gu Chengyu nodded and did not ask Wang Yueniang again.
"Da Shun, you and Wuzi search the house to see where the porcelain bottle containing the medicinal powder is."
Gu Chengyu turned around and ordered Dashun.
"Yes!" Dashun turned around and walked out the door. Gu Chengyu felt that this person was very discerning and could be used by his side.
Wang Yueniang was taken out, and Uncle Gu didn't understand why Gu Chengyu asked these questions.
Gu Chengyu saw Uncle Gu and Father Gu asking questions, but did not explain.
Soon, Mrs. Li was brought in, and Gu Chengyu asked the same questions that Wang Yueniang had answered before.
"Are you clear about the fact that my second brother took tiger whip powder?"
Mr. Li nodded, "I know! He had taken it before, and then he took it several times after my cousin came along."
When Mrs. Li talked about this, a trace of anger flashed across her face.
"Did you give him the medicine yesterday, or did he put it in himself?"
Li's pupils shrank and her breathing became a little rapid, "I put it in for him."
Gu Chengyu narrowed his eyes slightly, but his tone of interrogation became slow and calm.
"How much powder was left in that porcelain bottle? Did Ms. Wang see it?"
Mrs. Li paused and seemed to be reminiscing, "Only a little bit. My cousin also saw it, and it just happened to pour in."
Uncle Gu and Father Gu were a little confused. Why is this different from what Wang Yueniang said?
Who put the medicine into the tea yesterday? Mrs. Li couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.
Because Mrs. Wang was present at that time, if Mrs. Wang saw it, it would be meaningless for Mrs. Li to lie.
"Oh? Is there really only a little bit left in the porcelain bottle? Or are you deceiving us? There's more than that in the bottle. Is it full? Did you pour it all in?"
Gu Chengyu suddenly burst out loud, startling everyone present.
"No, I didn't. The master was watching me when I did it. He never trusts others and always does it by himself. I did it once yesterday, but he was still staring at me. How could I dare to do it more?
Besides, there’s only this little amount in the bottle, I don’t want to put more!”
Gu Chengyu sneered but did not continue.
Uncle Gu, the others, and Mrs. Li all thought that Gu Chengyu was trying to deceive her, so after Gu Chengyu didn't ask any more questions, Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally, I want to ask you, when was the tea on your table brought in? Did you see it? Who changed the tea?"
"It's Wang Yueniang, she brought it in. Not long after I entered the house yesterday, the master asked her to prepare tea, and she brought it in."
Gu Chengyu felt a chill, and at the stall where the three of them were doing that, he actually asked Wang Yueniang to come in and serve tea and water. It was really ridiculous.
"Okay, let's change."
Father Gu and Uncle Gu were full of questions. Did Xiaobao suspect that someone wanted to kill Gu Chengyi?
The last person to come in was naturally the Wang family. Regarding the Wang family, Gu Chengyu also had the same problem.
"I don't know what kind of medicine it is. It was the first time I saw him take it yesterday."
Mrs. Wang shook her head fiercely. She had never heard of this tiger whip powder before, but today she still heard Dr. Li say it was the medicine of tiger and wolf.
Only then did she understand the meaning.
When Gu Chengyi took it yesterday, she was just getting up, so how could she have time to ask these questions?
"Your cousin put the medicine in the tea yesterday? Did my second brother keep an eye on it?"
"I, I didn't pay attention"
Wang's face turned red. She saw her cousin making such an action, but she didn't pay too much attention because her attention was on other things.
