Chapter 2015: Chapter 2015: Confirmed Dead (3)
Actually, no need to notify anyone, as the people next door heard the commotion too. At this moment, both Gu Di and Hong Ye were there, so they quickly came over. However, seeing the old lady foaming at the mouth, both of them dared not make their own decisions.
"You have someone inform madam, I’ll enter the palace to inform the Empress Dowager." Hong Ye glanced at Gu Di.
"Let’s not disturb the Empress Dowager for now, but you go report to the authorities." Gu Di gave Hong Ye a look, "I trust that madam will handle it well."
Hong Ye nodded. Something happened at the vegetarian restaurant, it would certainly affect the hotpot restaurant. After all, everyone knew that the vegetables at the hotpot restaurant were the same ingredients used at the vegetarian restaurant.
The diners here had already put down their chopsticks, waiting to see the outcome.
Originally, some people wanted to get angry and go against the hotpot restaurant, but seeing them report to the police immediately without hesitation, they suddenly felt there might be some hidden truth, so they held back.
Yang Ruxin had just eaten and drunk her fill and was coming out of the Baoyue Building when she saw Gu Di running over with a worried look: "Madam, something happened at the vegetarian restaurant."
Yang Ruxin’s gaze flickered. The vegetarian restaurant had only been open for less than a month. Although business was indeed good, it wasn’t good enough to arouse envy yet. Unexpectedly, someone had already started making moves. They were really impatient. Although she didn’t think it would really harm her, it was annoying.
"Did you report it to the authorities?" After pondering for a moment, Yang Ruxin looked at Gu Di.
Gu Di nodded: "We reported it immediately, by now the government officer should have arrived."
"Is the person dead?"
"I checked when I arrived; there’s already no breath."
"Since that’s the case... then let’s go, directly to the Governor’s Office." Yang Ruxin nodded.
Lord Jiang was already troubled over the murder of Wang Zhengzheng, and unexpectedly there was another murder case. He couldn’t ignore it, so he had his deputy Congxin bring the government officials to bring everyone in.
"Are you saying the vegetarian restaurant’s food is poisoned?" Lord Jiang looked at the several people crying miserably below and frowned.
"Yes." The eldest son wiped away his tears and nodded, "Our mother has always been in good health, always eating vegetarian and praying. We saved up Silver to bring our mother for an expensive vegetarian meal, but who knew, she only ate a few bites, said her stomach hurt, and before we could do anything, our mother fell to the ground... my lord, you must seek justice for us..."
"Why are you all unharmed then?" Congxin couldn’t help but ask.
"Indeed, since you dined together, if the food was really poisoned, how come you’re all fine?" Lord Jiang quickly nodded.
"My lord." The younger son sighed, "We’d love to eat too, but it’s too expensive, we couldn’t bring ourselves to. This time we booked the cheapest banquet just for our mother to eat..."
The onlookers couldn’t help but nod; they couldn’t tell, but these people seemed rather filial.
"But who would have thought, one meal would kill mother-in-law..." one of the daughters-in-law also began to cry.
"Who says this person’s death is our vegetarian restaurant’s fault?" At this moment, Yang Ruxin, who had been watching from the doorway for a while, pushed through the crowd and walked in.
"If it wasn’t your fault, how did my mother die?" The eldest son, upon seeing Yang Ruxin enter, immediately charged at her with blazing eyes, "Are you that conscience-less merchant? Give me back my mother..."
