Chapter 58: Shifting the blame
"When did you get another daughter?" Shen Youqian and Shen Youxian asked at the same time.
Shen Dafu calmly explained for his daughter, "Your sister gave birth to this child last year. However, the child was not healthy after birth, so we haven't announced the news to the public."
"I'm his own uncle, can't I even say that?" Shen Youqian said, feeling very wronged.
As they drew closer, Yu Ningyao could smell the poison on them more clearly.
Her previous reward of "100% poison identification" was successfully triggered.
[System, can you help me find out what's going on?]
She needs to find out the truth.
My mother has such a good relationship with my two uncles. If something were to happen to them, she would be so heartbroken.
Moreover, her maternal grandfather helped conceal her true origins. The old man was such a good person, and she didn't want him to outlive his daughter.
Before long, the system found out the truth.
The poison in your two uncles was administered by Xu Xingcai of the Xu family.
[He and your uncle were arguing over a cloth business deal. Seeing that the Zhang family wanted to sign a contract with your uncle, thus taking away the business he had been doing for a long time, he sent someone to deliver poisoned wine.]
Your second uncle arrived just in time and accidentally knocked over the poisoned wine, spilling it on both of their clothes.
Your second uncle was worried that your clothes would get wet and make you sick in the cold weather, so he quickly brought your eldest uncle back.
In the end, the drinking session didn't happen, and the contract wasn't signed either.
Yu Ningyao gasped in shock.
One has to admit that my uncle is quite lucky.
However, if she hadn't warned them, they might have fallen for it again later.
But how can she remind them without arousing suspicion that she has something wrong?
"Daddy, hug me!" Shen Youxian's youngest son, Shen Yuanze, ran over wanting to be hugged.
Just as his hand was about to touch the hem of Shen Youxian's clothes stained with poisoned wine, Yu Ningyao rushed forward without thinking of an excuse, trying to pull him away.
But she was only a year and a half old and couldn't control her strength well. This pull turned into a tumble, knocking Shen Yuanze face-first to the ground.
"Wow!"
Shen Yuanze burst into tears instantly.
Yu Ningyao quickly pointed to Shen Youxian's clothes and said, "It stinks, it's poisonous."
Her words surprised everyone.
Shen Youxian lowered his head, wanting to lean closer and smell it.
Yu Ningyao quickly stopped her.
Shen Youxian scratched his head suspiciously: "It doesn't smell?"
"No, no!" Yu Ningyao stopped the two brothers from getting close to the others.
"I'm not lying, it's poisonous, it can kill people!"
At first, everyone thought she was just joking, but she had a serious expression on her face that was beyond her years.
Only then did the others stop teasing her.
"My dear, why did you say that?" Shen Jinzhu believed that her daughter wouldn't make things up without reason, so she quickly bent down to ask.
"It's poisonous and smells awful." She didn't dare to be too explicit.
All she could do was remind them and then ask someone to investigate.
"How did you know that your uncle's clothes were poisoned?" Shen Jinzhu asked again.
All eyes were on her.
"That's what the teacher taught us!"
Yu Ningyao had a sudden inspiration and shifted the blame to Yun Shiyue.
Anyway, during the few days on the ship, Yun Shiyue often took her to the deck to teach her.
To show that they would not steal the skills, the Yu family members never allowed anyone else to get close.
Therefore, apart from her, Yun Shiyue, and Yun Chubai, no one else knew the true content of their teaching.
"Huh?" Yu Kangjing and Shen Jinzhu were both stunned.
"So, Lady Yun taught you all this too?"
"Mmm!" Yu Ningyao lied without batting an eye.
"The teacher said that poison is dangerous. Yaoyao must protect herself!"
After she said that, Yu Kangjing and Shen Jinzhu were somewhat convinced.
Lady Yun was clearly no ordinary woman confined to her home.
Her fishing skills are so exceptional that many people can't learn them.
It wouldn't be surprising if she also knew a little about distinguishing poisons.
"Who is Lady Yun?" Shen Dafu couldn't help but ask.
Yu Kangjing quickly recounted his encounter with Yun Shiyue and the other person on the boat.
"So, that Lady Yun does have some real skills after all," Shen Dafu said thoughtfully.
Shen Youqian didn't believe Yu Ningyao's words and shook his head, saying, "Even if that Lady Yun is capable, my little sister's daughter is only a few years old. How could a child under two years old know how to distinguish poison?"
Lin Yunzheng glared at her eldest son: "It's better to believe it than not. Children's mouths are the most discerning. You two hurry back to your room and change your clothes. Remember, don't get it on your hands. I'll send someone to fetch a doctor to examine you."
"Mom, is this really necessary?" Shen Youqian yawned, preparing to go back to sleep.
“Look at me and my second brother, we’re both perfectly fine. If it were poison, we would have collapsed long ago.”
Shen Jinzhu put on a stern face: "Big brother, listen to your mother. We can't be careless when it comes to matters that endanger lives. I believe Yaoyao won't talk nonsense."
Hearing his sister say the same thing, Shen Youqian nodded helplessly, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
Yu Ziying quietly approached her younger sister and whispered, "Yaoyao, is it really poisonous?"
“Really!” Yu Ningyao nodded emphatically.
“Alright, I believe you! If your uncle doesn’t believe you, he’s just stupid.” Yu Ziying grasped her hand, her face serious.
Yu Ningyao couldn't help but laugh.
Hearing this, Yu Ziheng reached out and tapped his younger brother on the forehead: "Don't talk about your elders."
Not long after, the doctor arrived.
He carefully examined the clothes that the Shen brothers had taken off, and then his expression turned horrified.
"There is indeed poison on this."
"It's still a potent poison. If you take it, you will surely die within fifteen minutes without an antidote."
The doctor's words startled the Shen family.
It's unbelievable that a toddler under two years old could actually guess it correctly?
"This poison was mixed into the wine. Has anyone accidentally ingested it?" the old doctor pressed.
Upon hearing his words, Shen Youqian was so frightened that he immediately shook his head.
"I didn't drink it, it got spilled and got on my clothes," Shen Youxian quickly added.
"That's good." The old doctor stroked his beard, revealing an expression of admiration. "Whoever discovered the poison is truly remarkable. Could you introduce me to someone? I'd like to learn from them."
The expressions on everyone's faces immediately turned strange.
They all turned to look at Yu Ningyao.
The old doctor followed their gaze and saw that they were looking at a baby less than two years old, staring at everyone in disbelief.
"You're not going to tell me that she found out, are you?"
Everyone nodded in unison once again.
Yu Ningyao patted her chest, looking smug, and said, "That's right, I'm the one who discovered it."
"Don't tease me. How old are you? How many medicinal herbs can you recognize?" The old doctor shook his head.
"There's no poison in the world that I don't recognize," Yu Ningyao said confidently.
She placed her hands beside her round little belly, tilted her head back, and raised her chin high.
"Cough cough cough." Yu Kangjing and Shen Jinzhu coughed quickly.
My dear, you're exaggerating a bit too much.
Yun Niangzi has only taught her for a few days, how can she be so confident?
"Oh, how arrogant you are, young man!" The old doctor was furious. He took a medicinal herb from his medicine box, handed it to her, and demanded sharply, "What kind of medicine is this?"
Yu Ningyao: ...
Oh wow.
It's not poison, I don't recognize it.
Seeing the troubled look on her face, the old doctor was immediately pleased and scolded her, "You don't even recognize honeysuckle vines, yet you're so arrogant."
"This isn't poison. I told you, I only know poison," Yu Ningyao retorted angrily.
The old doctor snorted and started to argue with her.
He pulled out another bottle of pills from the medicine box and handed it to her: "This medicine is poisonous. Do you recognize it?"
