Chapter 874: 119 Acting_4

"I wouldn’t dream of giving away such delicious peanuts!"

The little boy playing "Husband" twitched the corner of his mouth, pretending to have swallowed the pill, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

Thereafter, his companions started picking faults with the restaurant, insisting that it was the restaurant that had poisoned people.

Following that, the "Government Official" came on stage, ready to arrest people and shut down the restaurant.

Just at this critical moment, the little girl playing the doctor suddenly began to sing, and this time her singing was lengthy, and the content was even more astonishing. No one even noticed when she had switched from singing to speaking.

By the time Xiao Linshuang had finished speaking, Shopkeeper Wu was already smiling and had taken the stage, accompanied by Yecheng’s most prestigious doctor.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Shopkeeper Wu spoke loudly, "I believe you may have guessed what the play was about just now. Yes, it was indeed the poisoning incident that occurred in our Fragrant Full Building a few days ago. I’m sure many of you are wondering if drinking Chrysanthemum tea and then eating chicken and celery could really lead to poisoning. Actually, I didn’t believe it either. However, after consulting with our Doctor Liu, I finally came to believe it. Upon reviewing the medical books left by our ancestors, Doctor Liu also found the answer for me. This is called ’food incompatibility’."

Food incompatibility? While it’s said that all things have their own compatibilities and incompatibilities, the idea of food having incompatibilities is unheard of.

Following this, Doctor Liu stood out and began to explain the principle of food incompatibility, citing classic texts. Of course, this complicated and deep medical knowledge wasn’t something that just anyone could understand.

However, what everyone did understand was that Young Master An’s poisoning had nothing to do with the Fragrant Full Building.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you may still have some doubts, so let us ask Young Master An to say a few words." After seeing off Doctor Liu, Shopkeeper Wu gestured to An Jie, who had already been waiting below the stage.

An Jie held tightly to Luomeiyan’s somewhat cold hand, giving her an encouraging smile.

When husband and wife are of one mind, their combined strength can cut through metal.

This was the phrase An Jie had repeated most to Luomeiyan over the past few days, and even if Luomeiyan was timid, at this moment she had mustered her courage.

Completely surprised, An Yixiang watched her son and daughter-in-law speak eloquently on the stage. She was already shocked by the play, but she hadn’t expected the truth to be revealed like this afterward. And when had her son and daughter-in-law left? How had she not noticed? Was it because she was too engrossed in the play?

Regardless, An Yixiang’s worried heart finally settled down. Although this incident was entirely caused by her daughter-in-law’s Chrysanthemum tea, it was done with her son’s best interests at heart. As long as the daughter-in-law didn’t poison her son, what did it matter whether the foods were incompatible or not? They just needed to be more careful in the future.

Li Zhicheng’s lips curved slightly, the shadow in his eyes flitting away. Was the daughter-in-law’s mistake really just an accident?

After An Jie and Luomeiyan clarified the situation, Wang Hong stepped onto the stage with a stately pace and personally defended the reputation of the Fragrant Full Building. With even Master Magistrate getting involved, who would doubt them now?

However, this also raised concerns among the audience. Chrysanthemum and chicken were some of the most common foods they ate—did this mean they couldn’t eat them anymore?

To this, Shopkeeper Wu responded with a smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, there’s no need for alarm. While food incompatibility can be quite dangerous, it typically won’t cause issues as long as we pay attention. Please look at our Fragrant Full Building’s external wall where we have clearly listed the common food items that are incompatible. Feel free to come and take a look whenever you have time."

Following Shopkeeper Wu’s direction, everyone indeed saw that an enormous silk cloth had been posted on the outer walls of the Fragrant Full Building at some point. On the red silk cloth, in yellow silk threads, were clearly embroidered the various incompatible foods and even the potential adverse reactions that could occur after consuming them.

Everyone nodded in admiration, finding Fragrant Full Building’s considerate gesture extremely useful.

The happiest to know that her elder brother’s poisoning was an accident was An Yueyue, who naively clapped her little hands, eager to try after looking at the enormous silk cloth.

Concerned that An Yueyue might notice something amiss, Zhao Hongsheng nodded slightly and let her go. An Yueyue ran off happily like a swallow.

As for who had the worst expression, it had to be Zhao Hongsheng. The plan he had gone to great lengths to prepare had been so easily exposed? The discontent was unbearable!

With their scheme exposed, Tang Ruyan also didn’t look very good. Her eyes narrowing slightly, she said softly, "Your Highness, rest assured, although the truth about the poisoning has come to light, it won’t be easy for the Fragrant Full Building to recover their business anytime soon. If we play our cards right before they make a comeback, we can certainly bring the Fragrant Full Building down for good."

"Oh? Do you have any tricks up your sleeve?" Zhao Hongsheng’s eyes narrowed dangerously, causing Tang Ruyan to shiver. This chilling gaze was something she had never before seen in her beloved Zhao Hongsheng’s eyes, and she couldn’t help but become flustered, stammering out an ’I’ for a long while.

"Useless!" Zhao Hongsheng was clearly furious, and with three cold words, he turned his attention back to the stage, his intuition telling him that today’s play wasn’t over yet.
