The atmosphere in the family was harmonious, and after finishing their meal, Shu Yu accompanied the old lady for a chat before pulling Zhao Xi aside for a conversation.
The two stood under the eaves, Shu Yu watching Sanya and Dahu playing and chatting in the courtyard while she asked, "How did it go? Did you check on the Second Young Lady at the Shu family this afternoon?"
"Yes, I did," Zhao Xi replied languidly as he leaned against a pillar, chuckling lightly, "It seems your suspicion was correct. Only a quack would make such a diagnosis as 'agitated heart.'"
Not surprised by this, Shu Yu inquired, "So the result is…"
"Poisoning."
Shu Yu frowned, "Poisoning?"
She paused before asking further, "What kind of poison? How was she poisoned? Was it by a poisonous insect or…"
Zhao Xi simply smiled without speaking, and Shu Yu understood, it was man-made.
And even the suspect seemed quite obvious.
