Before Yun Zhenzhen could ask the village chief the reason, a burst of crying was heard not far away.

After a while, Aunt Fugui came over crying.

"Village chief, village chief, you have to make the decision for us." Aunt Fugui cried with snot and tears. She threw herself on the ground, hugged the village chief's legs, and cried, "Save my husband, he is almost dead..."

Hearing this, the village chief was also shocked: "What!?"

After saying that, the village chief turned and walked towards Aunt Fugui's house. Seeing this, Yun Zhenzhen followed the village chief to Wang Fugui's house.

Wang Fugui was seen lying on the ground, unconscious, with his right hand still twitching involuntarily.

"What's going on? Why don't you call a doctor?" the village chief asked her loudly.

"The doctor is not at home, village chief, you are knowledgeable and you have to save my son Fugui." Aunt Fugui fell to the ground crying as she spoke.

The village chief suddenly remembered something and pointed at Wang Fugui lying on the ground and asked, "Did he eat the demon taro from the mountain?"

"Demon taro?"

Aunt Fugui suddenly stood up and went to the kitchen to bring out a bowl of white stuff: "Village Chief, Fugui is like this because he ate too much of this."

The village chief took a closer look and realized that this was the demon taro that covered the mountain. He was so angry that he slammed his thigh and said, "This is poisonous and cannot be eaten! Who told you to eat this?"

"Years ago, someone in the village ate this and ended up lying in bed for half a month. Alas, your Wang family moved in later, so you might not know about this. But you can't just eat something you don't know about."

Yun Zhenzhen was extremely surprised. She didn't expect that konjac had been discovered in the village before and that people had had problems eating it. No wonder the village chief said it couldn't be eaten.

When Aunt Fugui heard that it was poisonous, she immediately threw the pot to the ground and pointed the finger at Yun Zhenzhen.

"is her!"

Aunt Fugui rushed over yelling and wanted to hit someone, but Yun Zhenzhen dodged her.

"It's all your fault, you bitch. It was you who wanted to harm my Fuguier. Give me back my Fuguier, you murderer."

"Fugui family, calm down first." The village chief stood aside, completely bewildered. "How did this matter involve the Qin Yun family again?"

"It was her. She was the one who found this, so I dug it back." Aunt Fugui pointed at Yun Zhenzhen and said with certainty.

"If it weren't for her, how could my Fugui be poisoned?" Aunt Fugui pointed at Yun Zhenzhen angrily.

"Did I ask you to dig it?" Yun Zhenzhen finally couldn't help but speak.

"Or did I let you eat it?" Her voice suddenly rose and she stared straight at Aunt Fugui.

This series of questions made Aunt Fugui stunned for a moment. Her lips trembled, but she couldn't say a word.

Yun Zhenzhen's voice rang out again, carrying an unquestionable majesty: "Speak! Did I ask you to dig it?"

Aunt Fugui's lips moved, but no sound came out. Her eyes wandered, not daring to meet Yun Zhenzhen's gaze.

"Answer me!" Yun Zhenzhen's voice rose eight octaves, making Aunt Fugui's ears buzz.

Aunt Fugui's legs went weak and she almost fell to her knees. She stammered, "No... no..."

Yun Zhenzhen sneered and continued to ask, "Did you want to dig it yourself?"

Aunt Fugui's head shook like a rattle, her voice trembling: "No, no, no... I just want to see if there are any treasures..."

Yun Zhenzhen's eyes grew sharper, and her voice tinged with sarcasm: "So? Now that something's happened, you're putting the blame on me?"

Aunt Fugui's face turned very ugly, her lips were tightly pursed, but she could no longer find any reason to refute.

Yun Zhenzhen turned her gaze away from Aunt Fugui and said coldly, "People should have a conscience and stop always using others as scapegoats."

The village chief beside him also understood the whole story. He looked at Yun Zhenzhen with a hint of concern in his eyes: "Did you eat this too? Go to town and see a doctor right away. This stuff won't kill you, but it's disgusting. It can keep people bedridden for half a month."

"It's okay, Village Chief. Our whole family has eaten it." Yun Zhenzhen smiled gently and replied, "Her husband was poisoned because he ate undercooked demon taro. As long as he cooks it, he'll be fine."

The village chief showed a skeptical look on his face, as if he didn't believe Yun Zhenzhen's words. He frowned and said, "Really? But, we have cooked it before, and it took us half an hour..."

Yun Zhenzhen explained with a smile: "Shouze told me when we were at home that this demon taro needs to be cooked for at least an hour and a half to be fully cooked. Although it consumes a lot of firewood, if it is cooked, it can still be used to fill your stomach." Her voice was soft and firm, which made people feel trusting.

"If it's really like you said," the village chief's eyes lit up when he heard it. "This thing can be eaten once it's cooked. Then the whole village can rely on it to get through the autumn harvest. At least they won't go hungry..."

The village chief looked a little impatient and said quickly, "Let me get the tools and we'll go up the mountain to take a look."

"it is good."

Aunt Fugui saw that the two of them were talking about something and simply ignored her, and she also said angrily: "Village chief, are you not going to care about my wife anymore?"

The village chief touched his already few remaining hairs with some annoyance, and said with a tangled look on his face: "This..."

"I do have a way." Yun Zhenzhen suddenly interrupted, but stopped talking halfway, as if waiting for something.

The village chief immediately understood Yun Zhenzhen's intentions upon seeing this. He turned to Aunt Fugui and said sternly, "Fugui, apologize to Qin Yunshi. You slandered them for no reason. If this gets out, how will they survive in the village?"

Hearing this, Aunt Fugui widened her eyes and screamed in disbelief: "I apologize to her?" Her voice was so sharp that it seemed to pierce one's eardrums.

The village chief frowned and said impatiently: "Look at your man now. If you don't hurry up, I'm afraid someone will die!"

Aunt Fugui turned to look at her husband, only to see that he was pale, his eyes closed, and vomit still lingering at the corners of his mouth. She felt heartbroken and hesitant. But the thought of admitting her fault to that woman made her feel like she was being gnawed by a million ants.

Finally, Aunt Fugui gritted her teeth and said to Qin Yun reluctantly, "I'm sorry..."

It's just an apology. It won't make you lose any skin or flesh. Just think of it as saying it to the dog at the village entrance.

"What?" Yun Zhenzhen pricked up her ears seriously: "I didn't hear anything."

After I said the first sentence, it didn't seem so difficult anymore.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Aunt Fugui shouted at the top of her lungs, "Do you hear me now?"

Yun Zhenzhen quickly covered her ears and heard it. She heard it.

"It's really not easy to hear an apology from you." Yun Zhenzhen said with a hint of sarcasm.

"Just feed your bitch some egg white and make him spit out the demon taro he ate."

"It's better to drink more, the effect will be better."

After saying that, he followed the village chief and left leisurely.

After leaving the door, the village chief looked at Yun Zhenzhen with approval: "Shuze family, I underestimated you in the past."

He discovered a large amount of demon taro and knew the correct way to eat it. He did not hide it and even came to tell the village chief. It turned out that Qin Yun was not as cold and selfish as the rumors said.

"Cough cough." Yun Zhenzhen covered her face and coughed a few times. She never thought that she was so selfless. If possible, she didn't want to watch others starve to death in vain.
