Chapter 312 Reap the consequences
Uncle Jiang Chenghai signaled An Yue to untie the cloth that bound the man's mouth.
Jiang Chenghai said to the man: "Tell the truth!"
Mother Wei's heartbeat quickened, and she prayed silently, hoping that things would not get worse.
The man said cautiously, "I have indeed seen her. She and another young woman came to me to buy the medicine to change the fetus."
Wei's mother suddenly rushed towards the man, as if she was going to fight him to the death.
She beat the stall owner and cursed, "You big liar, I haven't even looked for you yet, but you came to my door. I'm going to beat you to death!"
When everyone saw this, they rushed forward to stop it.
After Wei's father pulled Wei's mother away, Wei's mother continued to curse: "It was you who killed my daughter, you murderer! I want you to pay with your life!"
Grandfather Jiang Wuwen slammed the table and asked loudly, "What on earth is going on?"
Jiang Chenghai quickly explained, "Dad, this guy is cheating people in town. It was this guy who sold Wei Wan'er the fetal reversal drug, which caused Wei Wan'er to die in her womb."
Jiang Wuwen was furious after hearing this: "How dare you harm others like this? Is there no law?"
After hearing this, the man quickly explained: "Listen to me, my reincarnation medicine is just some common weeds."
After hearing this, An Yue opened the herbal bag and took a look.
Indeed, there were many kinds of things, and An Yue carefully distinguished them.
There are foxtail grass, purslane, plantain, houttuynia cordata, motherwort, amaranth, and Viola yedoensis, a bunch of weeds...
An Yue asked seriously, "Who told you this prescription?"
The man explained: "No one gave me a prescription. I just cut some weeds on the edge of my field."
"How did you come up with this idea?"
"My mother was ill, so I took her to the town for a doctor. The doctor prescribed some medicine for her. When I took it home and prepared to boil it, I found that there were several herbs in the medicine bag. They were all wild grasses that I often see in the fields."
"At that time, a plan came to my mind. I thought that if the doctors could make money with these wild grasses, then I could also make money with wild grasses."
"So, I carried a basket on my back and went to the fields to cut grass. After drying it, I cut all the weeds into small pieces and wrapped them with straw paper, just like the pharmacy did."
"Due to the drought, the crops in the fields have all died. I have no money, and my mother has to rely on medicine all year round to survive. I have no choice but to come up with this way to make money."
An Yue picked up a few small pieces of purslane and motherwort and asked, "Then do you know what the medicinal effects of these wild herbs are?"
The man shook his head in confusion.
An Yue continued, "You, you! You really hurt me so much!"
She took the motherwort and purslane in her hand to the stall owner and said, "These weeds are medicinal herbs, but medicines have to be used for the right diseases. If normal people take these herbs in small amounts, it may be fine."
"But my aunt is a pregnant woman. She is weak and cannot take such things."
An Yue brought the wrapped herbs to everyone in the Wei family and said, "These wild herbs are all effective in cooling the blood and removing blood stasis."
"My aunt's pregnancy was unstable to begin with, and she was able to keep it alive only after taking the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine prescribed by the doctor."
An Yue snorted coldly and shook her head and continued, "It was not easy to save the fetus in my aunt's belly, but she has to take these cold blood-activating medicines, and she has been taking them continuously."
Mother Wei shook her head in disbelief: "No, no, no, I just want Wan'er to give birth to a boy for the Jiang family. I really didn't intend to harm her."
After hearing this, Wei's father became furious. He raised his hand and slapped Wei's mother hard in the face.
Snapped!
Father Wei was so angry that he was out of breath. He pointed at Mother Wei and said, "You you..."
"That day, Wan'er suddenly started bleeding profusely. I thought it was because you didn't take good care of her that that happened. I never expected it! I never thought it was you who used these crooked ideas to harm her!!"
Wei's father became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and slapped him again.
After slapping her, he raised his foot to kick Wei's mother, but fortunately their son Wei Zhi stepped forward in time to stop him.
Mother Wei covered her painful face and cried in regret, "Wan'er, I am sorry for you. I know I was wrong."
The grandmother was already in tears. She pointed at Wei's mother and the vendor and cursed, "So it was you! You guys are killing people! That's two lives lost!"
Then he covered his face and sobbed: "Poor little grandson..."
Wei Zhi's eyes were red, and he said helplessly: "Mom, you are confused! You are really confused!"
That day, when Wei Wan'er was sent to the town, the doctor asked Wei's mother about the specific situation.
When she told the doctor the truth, the doctor scolded her.
At that moment, she knew she was wrong.
But later, after bringing Wei Wan'er back to the Jiang family from the town, she was afraid of being blamed.
Therefore, they pushed all the responsibility onto the Jiang family, letting the Jiang family bear the blame.
I want to try to make myself feel at ease in this way.
But now, the truth was revealed, just like the veil was torn apart, and she had nowhere to hide.
Only the most intuitive result is that she has to face the facts and regret her ignorance for the rest of her life.
She knelt on the ground in the yard, slapping her face non-stop and shouting, "I deserve to die! I deserve to die..."
Grandfather Jiang Wuwen stepped forward and asked with a worried look on his face: "After all, both the Jiang and Wei families are victims in this matter."
At this time, the Wei family members were like defeated roosters, all of them hung their heads in dejection, and Wei's father was in tears.
Father Wei wiped the tears from his face and cried with great regret: "My dear relatives, my dear mother, it is my old Wei family who has let you down. I am so sorry..."
Grandfather Jiang Wuwen walked up to Wei's father and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
Father Wei choked up and said, "For so long, I have seen how good you have been to Wan'er."
"Wan'er has been weak since she was young, and our family has always doted on her."
Thinking of this, Wei's father cried like a child.
He adjusted his state and continued, "It is because of our doting that Wan'er's character has become arrogant and willful, and she doesn't know how to speak or act properly."
"Before... before, she ran back to her parents' home on her own will. As her parents, we not only did not persuade her, but indulged her instead. We even brought her to the Jiang family to ask for an explanation..."
The more he spoke, the more painful it became. He kept beating his chest and said regretfully, "Most of the responsibility for the current situation lies with us. It's all our fault. It's all our fault..."
At this time, his uncle Jiang Chenghai said, "It's too late to regret now. Let's send this evil person who cheated others to the government! We must make sure he is punished."
Seeing this, the stall owner begged:
