Chapter 422 Chronic Poisoning

"Codonopsis pilosula, verbena, forsythia, Gynostemma pentaphylla, ginseng..."

Jiang Xiaofan ignored He Ming and focused on identifying the traditional Chinese medicine bag in his hand.

Just as He Ming was about to start sarcastic, he suddenly felt that the names of the medicinal materials seemed familiar. He accidentally took out the medicine list and compared it, only to find that what Jiang Xiaofan said was accurate word for word.

"This, this is impossible!"

He Ming's face turned pale: "Only Dr. Liu and I know this prescription. No one else has seen it at all. How did you know about it?"

Jiang Xiaofan raised his eyebrows: "Making a fuss is a basic skill of a Chinese medicine practitioner."

Xia Xi asked hurriedly: "Xiaofan, are these medicinal materials like this?"

Jiang Xiaofan frowned slightly: "There is nothing wrong with the medicinal materials. They are just tonics that replenish qi and blood."

Liu Taixiong's face was ugly: "Huh! You actually suspect that my medicinal materials are poisonous? I don't know how high the sky is."

Jiang Xiaofan said impatiently: "You know whether you are a good bird or not!"

"You!" Liu Taixiong was furious, but remembering his relationship with the Zhong family, he immediately endured it.

"I want to see what you are capable of?" Liu Taixiong waved his sleeves and sneered.

Xia Xi looked at Jiang Xiaofan in confusion: "Xiaofan, are you mistaken?"

Liu Taixiong had a very good reputation in Jinyang City, and even dignitaries lined up to beg him. Therefore, after hearing Liu Taixiong's vows, Xia Xi couldn't help but hesitate.

"It's true that Uncle Xia was poisoned. There's nothing wrong with the medicinal materials, so what's the problem?"

Jiang Xiaofan frowned and thought deeply. Xia Dongliang's body was definitely poisoned, but the Chinese medicinal materials were obviously fine.

Are Liu Taixiong and the others really innocent?

A gust of wind blew through the tops of the sweet-scented osmanthus trees, and a few leaves fell on Jiang Xiaofan's shoulders. A unique fragrance hit his nostrils.

Jiang Xiaofan came back to his senses, twirled the leaves and smelled them a few times, then immediately turned around and started searching around. His eyes fell on Xia Dongliang's bamboo bed, where there was a box of opened pastries.

Jiang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, then strode over to pick up the pastry box, put it under his nose and smelled it twice, and then smelled the osmanthus leaves in his hand, with a sneer on his lips.

Seeing this scene, He Haibo and Liu Taixiong both changed their expressions.

Jiang Xiaofan looked at Xia Dongliang: "Uncle Xia, are you eating these pastries?"

Xia Dongliang nodded: "I like to eat some sweets."

Jiang Xiaofan asked: "Who sent these pastries?"

Before Xia Dongliang could speak, He Haibo suddenly shouted loudly: "This is none of your business. We don't welcome you at Guiyuan Villa, so leave immediately!"

Xia Xi felt something was wrong, looked at the pastries carefully and said, "This pastry was sent by Manager He. My father loves sweets, so they send pastries here regularly."

"If you think about it carefully, every time your father's condition gets worse, is it because he ate this kind of cake?"

Hearing Jiang Xiaofan's words, Xia Xi and Xia Dongliang were stunned.

"Yes, it seems that every time I eat pastries, my body suddenly collapses..."

Xia Dongliang's expression changed as he said this: "You mean there's something wrong with the pastries?"

Jiang Xiaofan looked at He Haibo with a cold face: "There is nothing wrong with the pastry. Several nourishing Chinese medicinal materials are added to it. But mixed with the smell of osmanthus leaves, it becomes a chronic poison. This chronic poison will invade the internal organs and cause

The person looks like he is deficient in energy and blood."

Jiang Xiaofan's words were loud and loud, like thunder in He Haibo's ears. He Haibo subconsciously took two steps back and stammered: "I, I don't know what you are talking about. I bought the pastries at a roadside stall."

"Which roadside stall?" Xia Xi understood at this time and asked He Haibo closely.

"I, I forgot." He Haibo said bravely.

"If you want to detoxify, I can give you the imperial meal recipe in return." He Haibo simply broke his face and looked at Xia Xi fiercely: "Do you want your father to get better? If you want, just bring out the recipe."

"No!" Xia Dongliang shouted, and immediately covered his chest and coughed violently: "He Haibo, I am blind, knowing you are such a bastard!"

"Haha, if it weren't for your royal meal recipes, do you really think that I would have taken you and your daughter in? How naive!" He Haibo said with a sarcastic look on his face.

Xia Xi cursed with red eyes: "You are so crazy, you actually poisoned my father for the imperial meal recipe!"

"frenzied?"

He Haibo said: "You two, father and daughter, just came to Jinyang City, and I took you in. I gave you a place to live, gave you opportunities to work, and even the tuition fees were lent to you. How dare you not repay the favor?"

scold me?"

Xia Dongliang said with a look of sorrow and indignation: "Over the years, I first helped you control Guiyuan Villa. After my health failed, my daughter took over and made a lot of money for you Guiyuan Villa. It should have been paid off long ago...

…”

Speaking of this, Xia Dongliang suddenly remembered something: "When I was in charge of the kitchen three years ago, my body suddenly became weak. Did you poison me?"

"So what?" He Haibo said unceremoniously: "You are too shrewd, and you value the imperial cuisine recipes more seriously than your life. I have no choice but to use some means to make you retire, and then let you Xia Xi take over your job...

I originally wanted Xia Xi and He Ming to get married so that we wouldn't have to do anything, but she is so disrespectful."

Xia Xi said sadly and angrily: "Even if I die, I will not be with him."

He Haibo sneered: "You don't have to die, but your father can't say it. When this kind of chronic poison attacks, forensic doctors can't detect it... I advise you to hand over the imperial meal recipe, otherwise you will miss the detoxification time. Congratulations!"

Uncle, I am irresponsible."

Xia Xi struggled with expression on her face. She knew that the meaning of the imperial meal recipes was no less important to her father than his life.

They came all the way from Rongcheng to Jinyang City, and no matter how difficult it was, they never came up with the idea of ​​​​imperial meal recipes.

But now my father is suffering from chronic poison and his life may be in danger at any time.

Xia Xi gritted her teeth and said, "I'll give you the royal meal recipe, but you must save my father first."

"Haha, no problem, that makes sense." He Haibo smiled evilly, as if his conspiracy had succeeded.

"No, you can't give it to him!" Xia Dongliang struggled and yelled: "Don't worry about me, just leave!"

Xia Xi shook her head with tears in her eyes.

He Haibo couldn't wait to ask: "Where is the recipe?"

Just as Xia Xi was about to speak, a weak voice suddenly sounded: "Well, let me interrupt. In fact, Uncle Xia's chronic poisoning is easy to treat."

"Huh?" Hearing this voice, He Haibo turned around subconsciously. He saw Jiang Xiaofan standing aside with his hands in his trouser pockets and a careless smile on his face.

The words just now came out of his mouth.

He Haibo's face darkened: "Jiang Xiaofan, for the sake of the Zhong family, I won't argue with you. Now that you're leaving our Guiyuan Villa, I'll pretend I've never seen you."

"no problem."

Jiang Xiaofan nodded, stretched out his hand to support Xia Dongliang, and said to Xia Xi, "Let's go."

"What do you mean?!" He Haibo said angrily upon seeing this.

Jiang Xiaofan was confused: "Didn't you say let us go?"
