Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 339 The pot is also poisonous? !

Hearing this heart-wrenching cry, the people at the door felt something was wrong and walked into the yard.

Although Village Chief Fu is old, his steps are very brisk.

Moreover, the villagers followed him subconsciously, so Village Chief Fu walked in front and was the first person to see the miserable condition of Old Lady Shen.

I saw Old Mrs. Shen lying on the bed, with a pile of white foam and black and red blood on her face and pillow.

Her entire face was an abnormally dark blue color, her eyes were wide open, and there was even a lot of blood in her eye sockets.

Even the knowledgeable village chief Fu couldn't bear to watch it.

"Step back, don't let anyone come in!"

This old lady Shen is most likely dead, and everyone would be scared if they saw it.

Seeing the seriousness on her husband's face, Liu Sanniang also realized the seriousness of the situation.

She never held Village Chief Fu back on serious matters, so she quickly asked everyone to leave.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see. Just know that Old Lady Shen is inside."

The villagers watching were not fools. When they saw the appearance of Village Chief Fu and his wife, they all had vague guesses in their minds.

But they were also very taboo, so they followed Liu Sanniang out.

Only a few brave ones were curious and couldn't help but stand on tiptoe to take a look into the house, but they were instantly frightened and their faces turned pale.

"Fu Wan was right. Old Mrs. Shen died tragically. It's obvious she died of poisoning!"

"Really? You saw it?"

"Don't mention it. His face was covered in blood and black. How could I have been wrong?"

Although everyone said they had left the house, they were reluctant to leave and gathered at the door, talking among themselves.

So even though Fu Ming didn't see it with his own eyes, he was able to piece together the tragic story of how Old Lady Shen was poisoned to death by crabs from the villagers' accounts.

"Awan, is that crab really poisonous?"

Fu Wan sighed, "Why don't you all believe it? It's not only poisonous, it's extremely poisonous. Not to mention eating that crab, even the water used to steam it is enough to kill several people."

It's no exaggeration to call the crab the "cobra of the sea." Crucially, neither serum nor medication for this venomous crab existed in the 80s or even in the 21st century.

Fu Ming was stunned when he heard this. "It's okay if crabs are poisonous, but how can the water used to boil crabs also be poisonous?"

At this moment, Boss Fu and Ye Xiaocui also came back hurriedly from outside.

Boss Fu looked at Fu Wan with a look of hesitation on his face. "Did you know that Old Lady Shen is dead?"

Fu Wan nodded, "I know, my eldest brother just told me."

Boss Fu sighed, "She treated you and your daughter so badly before. Now that she's dead, the debt is settled. Don't think about her anymore."

"That's for sure. Whether she's dead or alive has nothing to do with me."

They were already strangers, and Mrs. Shen's current fate was most likely karma.

Ye Xiaocui had a strange look on her face, "The poisonous crab that Old Lady Shen ate was personally delivered by her son Shen Dongsheng.

Not only did Old Lady Shen become ill from eating too much, but strangely, the chickens Qian Xiaohua raised also died."

She and Jiang Chunlan had just returned from talking to those well-informed gossips in the village, and heard that Qian Xiaohua was still sitting in the yard crying.

Fu Wan guessed the cause of the chicken's death after just a little thought.

Fu Ming reacted belatedly.

"Is it the water used to steam crabs?"

"should be."

Boss Fu and Ye Xiaocui were completely confused. "What do you mean by steamed crab water?"

Fu Ming quickly explained, "Awan said that the crab was very poisonous. Not only was the crab meat poisonous, but the water used to steam the crab was also poisonous."

The people in their village are thrifty in their bones. The water used to steam the crabs was most likely used by Qian Xiaohua to feed the chickens, so all the chickens were killed.

When Ye Xiaocui heard this, her face turned pale with fright.

"Oh my God, so her kitchen is not full of poison?"

Fu Wan thought about it and felt that this was still a possibility.

"If nothing else, that pot must be poisonous."

She suddenly remembered the news she had read in her previous life. It said that in a coastal city on an island nation, a fisherman had also caught a copper-cast crab. Similarly, he couldn't bear to throw it away, and seeing the crab's plump and beautiful appearance, he took it home to make soup.

As a result, he was seen by a neighbor who was visiting while he was cooking soup. The neighbor was an experienced fisherman and recognized that the crab was poisonous at a glance. He advised him to throw the crab away.

But although the crabs were thrown away, they did not throw away the pot. He used the pot to make pork rib soup. As a result, more than a dozen people who drank the soup were poisoned.

Fortunately, the pot had been washed several times, so the toxicity was weaker, and these dozen people survived.

So, Fu Wan couldn't guarantee anything else, but the pot used to steam crabs in Qian Xiaohua's house was definitely poisonous.

"Should we go and remind them?"

Ye Xiaocui was not a heartless person. She was only doing this because of Qian Xiaohua's deceased husband. Also, Fu Yaozu was still a child, so she couldn't bear to let the child die.

Boss Fu and Ye Xiaocui have been married for many years, so how could he not know what his wife is thinking?

He turned around and walked out of the courtyard without looking back.

"I'll go talk to the village chief and let him handle this!"

This is all they can do. If Qian Xiaohua takes their kindness for granted and they are blackmailed later, who can they turn to for justice?

As for Village Chief Fu, he no longer exists. Unless Qian Xiaohua doesn't want to stay in this village, she wouldn't be stupid enough to blackmail the old village chief.

After Boss Fu left, Ye Xiaocui still felt uneasy.

"Awan, do you still remember what that crab looks like? Can you draw one for me? I can show it to you when I go to the beach later."

She was really scared. The crab's water alone could poison a chicken to death, so it was probably the same for a human.

If you pick up that kind of crab and cook it without paying attention, your whole family will be in trouble!

"Okay, I'll draw it for you now!"

The distinctive features of the cooked crab are its color and the spots on its body. She happened to have Fu Ling and the others' crayons in her room, so she used them to simply mark the colors.

There were paintings everywhere, so Fu Wan simply drew two more, thinking of giving one to Jiang Chunlan and Wang Xiuer respectively.

At this time, Qian Xiaohua's family was in chaos.

"Shen Dongsheng, even though your mother died in our village, she is still a member of your Shenjia Village. So, take a cart and drag your mother back to bury her!"

Village chief Fu tried to persuade her earnestly, saying that he was also having a headache. Although the weather was cool now, he couldn't just let Old Lady Shen stay in that old house like that.

Shen Dongsheng remained silent, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Qian Xiaohua.

It’s all this woman’s fault. If she hadn’t listened to the advice and picked up the poisonous crab, his mother wouldn’t have died!
