Chapter 978: I reflect on myself three times a day
Jiang Jiyun smiled and nodded, then asked curiously, "Brother Er, why aren't there separate men's and women's restrooms here? What if a woman goes in and a man comes in behind her?"
Upon hearing this, the waiter quickly explained, "No, don't worry, miss. We have people specifically guarding the outhouses here. If someone goes in, we'll promptly warn anyone who comes after them."
After hearing the waiter's explanation, Jiang Jiyun felt a little relieved.
Then, she took out a silver dollar from her pocket, held it up to the waiter, and said with a smile, "Waiter, I just found a silver dollar in this outhouse. I wonder which customer dropped it."
When the waiter saw the silver dollars in Jiang Jiyun's hand, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Ah!"
He stared wide-eyed at the silver dollar and said, "The last person to use this outhouse seemed to be Old Wu from the grain station."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiyun smiled and placed the silver dollar in the waiter's hand, saying, "Then this silver dollar is yours. See if it's the one Old Wu dropped. If it's not his, just keep it and wait for the person who dropped the money to come and come looking for it."
Jiang Jiyuan squinted at his sister as she spoke, and then watched her go to wash her hands with a smile.
He walked over and reminded him, "This water is well water."
"It's alright, just scrub it with soap and rinse it again in a bit, and it'll be fine." Jiang Jiyun shook his hand and walked towards the teahouse.
When the brother and sister went out, Nan Hai and Cui Fu were talking. Seeing the two siblings come out, Cui Fu immediately went up to them and asked, "Young Master, Miss, would you like to go for a walk?"
Jiang Jiyun shook her head and said, "No need, let's go straight back!"
Jiang Jiyuan didn't know what his sister meant, so he just nodded.
They walked along the street, and after a short distance, Jiang Jiyun said she was tired, so she climbed onto her brother Jiang Jiyuan's back.
The brother and sister fell to the back of the line and began to whisper among themselves.
After a while, Jiang Jiyuan put his sister down and then shouted, "Brother Nanhai, I want to see if there are any children's clothes here. My sister said she's visiting relatives and wants to wear new clothes."
As soon as Jiang Jiyun landed, she heard her brother push the blame onto her, and she immediately felt unhappy.
She glared at her troublesome brother, then angrily followed Nan Hai and Cui Fu back home.
When they returned to Yu Ziheng's house, Jiang Wenming immediately noticed that only his little niece and Nan Hai had returned with the family.
He was thinking of saying a few words to her, but Dean Qiao next to him came over and started talking to him.
Left with no other option, Jiang Wenming turned around and began to deal with Dean Qiao.
With the help of Dean Qiao, Li Hua had identified the root cause of the problem: the city's water supply was malfunctioning.
The water used by the servants of the Yu family for bathing to detoxify was specially sent in from outside the city by the steward, and it could be promoted as long as it could detoxify them.
Yu Ziheng was hurriedly packing his luggage with his mother and sister, preparing to leave the city and stay at their family's farm for a while to avoid the city's water crisis.
A while after Jiang Jiyun and the others returned, they heard sirens blaring throughout the city, along with loudspeakers that grew louder as they approached.
After hearing the loudspeaker report that the city's water supply had been poisoned, many people reminded themselves to seek medical treatment immediately if they or someone around them experienced the symptoms mentioned above.
The loudspeaker also reminded everyone to avoid using the city's water supply as much as possible, and to wait for further notice after the cleanup is complete.
Those who thought the Japanese were attacking again and were preparing to flee were stunned when they heard this; the water they were drinking was poisoned.
After a brief moment of silence, the entire city of Nantian was in an uproar, with many people rushing to the hospital with their families.
Jiang Jiyun gave her uncle plenty of detox pills. She saw that as long as those people took one pill and then took a herbal bath, the toxins in their bodies would be expelled.
After the three families learned that there was a miracle doctor here who could cure the poison, Cao Sheng led his men over.
Jiang Wenming, who was holding a rice bowl, saw Cao Sheng walk in arrogantly with his men.
Dean Qiao looked at Cao Sheng coldly and said, "Section Chief Cao, are you on official business?"
Upon seeing the person sitting by the wooden tub, Cao Sheng exclaimed in surprise, "Dean Qiao? No wonder they say there's a miracle doctor here. Isn't this why I've come to invite him?"
Dean Qiao sneered and said, "Section Chief Cao is really well-informed. We didn't even know when the miracle doctor came here. How come you found out first? Why don't you introduce me to him? I want to learn from the miracle doctor."
Cao Sheng looked at the young man and child eating next to him, Yu Ziheng and the housekeeper in the wooden tub, and Jiang Wenli and Yu Nian taking a bath in their room.
"So what are you doing now? Do you think I'm stupid?" Cao Sheng asked coldly.
Jiang Wenming put down his chopsticks and said, "Using them as guinea pigs, didn't you see? If you're so envious, why don't you take off your clothes and squat in there and try it yourself?"
A woman who had come with Cao Sheng approached Jiang Jiyun and asked, "Little girl, I have some candy here. Tell me what you're doing?"
Jiang Jiyun looked at the simple paper candy in her hand. There wasn't even a word on it. It was an unregistered product. She was worried that it might be poisoned.
She looked up at the woman's fake smile, blinked, and said, "I examine myself three times a day."
Dean Qiao and Jiang Wenming both looked at the serious-looking child in surprise.
"Huh?" The woman who was trying to get information out of her didn't expect her to say that.
So she forced a smile and continued, "Then what are you, a little kid, doing here reflecting on your own thoughts?"
Jiang Jiyun looked at her coldly and said, "The three things to consider in the morning are: what to eat for breakfast, what to eat for lunch, and what to eat for dinner."
The woman next to me smiled less, but couldn't help asking, "What about lunchtime?"
"Am I being too polite?"
"Did I give him too much face?"
"Should I take action now?"
Jiang Jiyun uttered three sentences without any expression.
The woman's smile vanished instantly. She put away the few candies in her hand and said with malice in her eyes, "If you're a child, you'd better behave yourself if you want to live a few more years."
Just as Jiang Wenming was about to get angry, he heard Jiang Jiyun say, "Your words are my conclusion."
"Reflect less on yourself and blame others more."
Do unto others what you would not have them do unto you.
"It's better to destroy others than to improve yourself."
Dean Qiao couldn't help but burst into laughter. The woman angrily drew her gun from her waist and said, "You ill-mannered brat! Nobody taught you anything, but I'll teach you a lesson!"
Jiang Wenming quickly pointed the gun at the woman and said, "What are you? My child is very well-mannered. You come here like a human trafficker. It's already a sign of good upbringing that I haven't told you to get lost."
Dean Qiao also stood up and looked at Cao Sheng. "Section Chief Cao, this isn't your county's public works bureau. What kind of official arrogance are you displaying here?"
