Mrs. Nan was worried, so she simply found a donkey cart from the village and took Nan Qian to the town to look for the white pinellia.
They didn't want to wait until they arrived in town to find that the Bai family had no stall.
Mrs. Nan asked someone nearby and found out that the Bai family had come. As soon as they set up their stall, they said there was something going on at home and left again.
Mrs. Nan felt strange, but she was more concerned about her daughter's health now, so she asked the driver to take them to Baoshan Village.
In the morning, Bai Banxia followed her parents to the town. When the first customer came to buy pancakes, after her father spread the batter, she smelled something wrong.
So delicious!
She hurriedly called Qi Zhen, "Qi Zhen, please take a look, is it wrong?"
Qi Zhen's expression also changed, "The bean paste has been touched."
"What's wrong? What's the problem?" Seeing their solemn expressions, the guest asked worriedly.
Bai Banxia winked at Qizhen, and then said with an apologetic smile to the customer: "Brother, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was sleepy last night and put the sugar in instead of salt. The batter tastes wrong and I can't sell it anymore. The sign will be damaged."
"
"Sugar is more expensive than salt. You can get it wrong and you will suffer a huge loss." The guest didn't think much about it, "It's a pity that such a big bucket can't be used."
"It's all my fault. We can't set up a stall today. We definitely can't sell this neither sweet nor salty thing to everyone. We can just go home and eat it ourselves." Bai Banxia quickly took the first pancake that her father had set out.
Came down, "Dad, I'm closing the stall and going home."
Bai Tian also saw something was wrong. With his daughter's level of care, how could she mistook sugar for salt?
He didn't dare to ask any more questions and immediately listened to his daughter closing the stall. However, Zhang Lingzhi was a little reluctant and muttered: "You can also sell meat and intestines with bones removed, why come all the way here and then go back again?"
"Let's make some extra meals when we go back." Bai Banxia said with a smile.
Although Zhang Lingzhi was a little reluctant to say this, but in the end the greedy man got the upper hand and said nothing more.
The family closed up the stall and left the town, so fast that Du Sanniang didn't even meet them. When they inquired, the people next to them said that the daughter of the Bai family had used the sugar as salt. Du Sanniang couldn't laugh or cry, and followed Yu Yu
He sighed with emotion: "It's not easy for someone as careful as Banxia to make mistakes."
Yu Yu smiled, but had a different idea in mind. He simply went to collect the sausages early and planned to send them to Baoshan Village himself and ask what was going on.
When Bai Banxia and the others left the town, there was no one around, so she whispered: "Dad, Mom, our bean paste has been poisoned."
"What?" Zhang Lingzhi almost jumped up, "What kind of poison? Will it kill anyone?"
"Yes!" This was not answered by Bai Banxia, but by Qi Zhen.
Bai Tian looked at Qi Zhen in surprise, "Do you understand this too?"
"I don't understand, but I remember the smell. I went to the mountain to pick mushrooms for Pinellia ternata before but missed it. Pinellia ternata said that after eating that mushroom, the whole village could come to our house for a meal." Qi Zhen replied.
"What's the banquet?" Zhang Lingzhi didn't turn around.
Bai Tian covered his head and said, "Her mother just eats and drinks for free..."
Bai Banxia's face darkened, "If Qi Zhen hadn't picked the wrong kind of mushrooms not long ago, I might not have noticed it today. Our pancakes sell so fast, I'm afraid something big will happen. People outside are too talkative.
, it will not be good for us if word spreads, so I ask you to close the stall quickly."
"Which unscrupulous thing did this? Report it to the official!" Bai Tian was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out.
Zhang Lingzhi was also very angry, "Is it a joke to kill someone? We must find it out and never let it go."
Qi Zhen's face was so cold that it seemed like it was about to freeze, and he spat out two words: "Bai family."
Bai Tian and Zhang Lingzhi both calmed down for a while. It was difficult to guard against thieves day and night. Only the Bai family could do this.
"Qi Zhen, did you mark the bean paste area last night?" Bai Banxia asked.
She had prepared medicinal powder for Qi Zhen before. After Qi Zhen ground the mung beans, he would mark them next to them to prevent anyone from disturbing them.
There was nothing wrong with the Bai family, and it was not put to use. On the contrary, Qi Zhen had used it before when he was in Stone Village, and the murderer was caught because of it.
"I did it." Qi Zhen nodded, he was always cautious.
Bai Banxia smiled at him, "It's been so long since I've been without a problem, I feel relaxed, but you can still be relied upon."
The corners of Qi Zhen's lips raised slightly, "We'll find out if we go back and check the soles of my family's shoes."
"What mark?" Bai Tian felt a little sour in his heart. He felt that his daughter and Qi Zhen were getting closer and closer to each other. He, his biological father, no longer knew what they were talking about.
"I gave Qi Zhen some special medicinal powder, and he marked it so that if someone messes with the ingredients, it will get on their pants and shoes," Bai Banxia explained.
Bai Tian breathed a sigh of relief, "This is a good method. You can figure it out when you go back."
When the family returned to the village, some people saw it and came to inquire out of curiosity. Some even thought that Bai Banxia and the others were being bullied when they went out to the stall, so they quickly went to report the news to Zhang An.
When we passed by the Bai family's fields, we could already see the uncle, the second uncle, the elder brother, and the third uncle doing farm work in the fields.
"Dad, call them all home. If you have anything to say, go home." Bai Banxia said.
"Okay." Bai Tian ran to the field without knowing what he said, but Bai Shui didn't make any fuss and followed them back obediently.
Bai Banxia glanced at Sanlang. From the moment Sanlang saw them, his face was not very good-looking, and his eyes were always looking towards their cart.
She already knew something in her mind, she just needed some evidence.
All the Bai family members have returned home, and only Erlang Bai Shengming, who went to Nanling Village to study, is not there.
"Why are you back so soon?" The old lady looked at Bai Tian and asked worriedly.
Before Bai Tian could speak, Bai Shui rushed to say: "The third child said that he took over a business from a big family and asked us to come back to discuss how to help."
He also glanced at Bai Tian and said, "Third brother, you have agreed that the money will be shared equally among the three families."
Bai Tian snorted coldly, "Excuse me, if I don't say so, can you come back obediently?"
The Bai family members were stunned by his change of expression, sensing something was wrong in the atmosphere.
"Lao San, what's going on?" the old man asked.
"Dad, the bean paste we sell at the stall has been poisoned. If you sell it, it will kill people!" Bai Tian's face turned livid when he mentioned it, "We lost people's lives in our business and poisoned people. The rest of the Bai family
Can people be fine? If it’s not the same, they should be punished again?”
At this time, clans were the unit. A family was almost always prosperous and suffered losses. Some serious crimes implicated nine clans.
"What?" The old man's face turned a little pale, "Is nothing wrong?"
Bai Banxia spoke up, "If it weren't for my keen sense of smell, my pancakes would sell so fast, and most of the people who ate them would die within a quarter of an hour, leaving no time to detoxify."
"What's so poisonous?" The old lady was also frightened and couldn't tell. "Do we have anything to eat in the morning?"
Bai Shui's eyes kept rolling, "What do you mean? There is no profitable business anymore? Are you kidding me, third child?"
"If I didn't say that, could I have called you back? Is it possible to shout outside that someone in our family has been poisoned?" Bai Tian said, trying his best to suppress his voice.
