Rebirth at 70: I am the rough man’s treasure

Chapter 147 The cow was poisoned

Fortunately, there was someone on duty at the veterinary station. After checking the cows overnight, the veterinarian said: "They have eaten something bad. They need to be injected and observed for a long time. Leave the cows here and come and take them away after noon today."

"Is that cow in danger? Can it be cured?"

Yang Xiaotian asked uneasily.

The veterinarian said: "You discovered it in time. These cows are in the early stages of gastroenteritis and should be fine."

Yang Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

Wu Shengqian's face was slightly sullen, and he asked: "What causes gastroenteritis?"

"It's hard to say," the doctor said thoughtfully, "Maybe the fodder you feed is moldy and rotten, the drinking water may not be clean enough, or you may have eaten something that shouldn't be eaten."

“What food can’t cows eat?”

Wu Shengqian continued to ask.

"There are a lot of these. In our local area, the more common one is Agustium japonicus. This kind of grass is naturally incompatible with cattle. Once cattle eat it by mistake, it can range from gastroenteritis, like now; to serious cases, vomiting and diarrhea. He died within three days."

The veterinarian introduced seriously.

Wu Shengqian nodded, said a few polite words, put the cow at the veterinary station, and returned to Yangkoupo with Yang Xiaotian.

After a long journey back and forth, when they returned to the sheep farm, it was already bright and the villagers had come to work.

Seeing their cattle pen become empty, everyone started talking in surprise

"Hey, it's only been one night, why are there no more cows?"

"It won't be stolen, right?"

"That shouldn't be the case! Aren't Wu Da Scar and his wife staying here at night? How can they not guard against cattle thieves?"

They were guessing that Wu Shengqian and Yang Xiaotian had returned.

Everyone was curious and asked them where the cow was.

Wu Shengqian was too lazy to say anything and told them directly that the cow was sent to the veterinary station.

The folks in Yangkoupo are all tentative about raising dairy cows.As soon as they heard that Wu Shengqian's cows became sick so quickly, everyone began to shake their heads and curl their lips.

"What did I say yesterday? Our ancestors in Yangkoupo have been raising sheep for generations, and no one has ever raised cows! Wu Da Scar is not a believer in evil, so now it's better. He went to the veterinary station just one day after he bought the calf."

"Yes, yes. Fortunately, on the day of the conference, we didn't listen to their lies. Otherwise, it would be us who would lose money."

"..."

Li Erchuan was also in the crowd. He also wanted to say something to add insult to injury, but when he raised his eyes, he met Wu Shengqian's murderous eyes.

He shrunk his neck and swallowed those damaging words.

Wu Shengqian had no intention of arguing with these talkative folks. He pulled Yang Xiaotian and went into the cattle pen to check the situation inside.

The fodder is fresh and the water is clean, so there should be no problems.

but……

"Wu Shengqian, look, is this Jiejie grass?"

Yang Xiaotian dug through the piled grass with her hands and found a strange-shaped grass inside.It has one section after another, like a miniature version of bamboo.

Yang Xiaotian is from the northwest, and she really doesn’t know the plants in the northeast.

When Wu Shengqian saw it, he immediately frowned and said in a deep voice, "That's it!"

The veterinarian said that the grass can cause vomiting and diarrhea in cattle, and will kill them over time.

He knew very well that when he added fodder to the cattle, he never saw any grass.That means that the problem with his cow this time must be a deliberate conspiracy!

"Why do people hate us so much? They just bought the cow a day ago and they are eager to poison us?"

Yang Xiaotian's hand holding the festival grass was shaking a little, and she gritted her teeth and asked.

Wu Shengqian clenched his fists and said coldly: "Who else could it be? It's not Li Erchuan!"

Yesterday, Li Erchuan said in public that their cattle might not survive a day.

When Yang Xiaotian thought about this incident, she also felt that Li Erchuan was the most suspicious.

However, they have no evidence.

She was just about to say that Wu Shengqian should not be too arbitrary when she heard a sarcastic voice not far away: "What am I talking about? If you don't have diamonds, don't take the porcelain job. If you don't know how to raise cattle, you still have to raise them. Look, Look, something’s wrong now?”

It was Li Erchuan who came to watch the excitement.

Wu Shengqian's anger was almost uncontrollable, and hearing his sarcastic remarks again made him even more angry.

He clenched his fists fiercely, rushed over, directly picked up Li Erchuan by the collar, and slammed him against the wall of the bullpen.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Let me go!"

Li Erchuan was startled and shouted repeatedly.

"Let go of you? You dare to plot against me, let's see if I don't destroy you!"

Wu Shengqian gritted his teeth and swung his fist fiercely, hitting Li Erchuan's nose.

Li Erchuan said "Ouch", his nose immediately swelled, and nosebleeds instantly flowed all over his face.

"Wu Shengqian!"

Seeing the dazzling red color, Yang Xiaotian finally came to her senses, ran over quickly, and hugged Wu Shengqian's arm eagerly.

She anxiously stopped him and said, "Stop hitting him! We are just suspicious, but there is no evidence at all! Calm down, calm down first before talking!"

Wu Shengqian's heavy breathing sounded in Yang Xiaotian's ears.He didn't let go yet, but he lowered his fist and stopped shouting that he was going to hit someone.

Yang Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief and advised softly: "Let him go first. We can slowly find the evidence."

Wu Shengqian seemed to have finally been comforted. He suddenly stopped his hand and let go of Li Erchuan's neck.

Li Erchuan's legs were already weak from fear. This time, without any support, he slid down the rough wall.

Yang Xiaotian only glanced at him, then pulled Wu Shengqian and said, "Let's go home first and discuss countermeasures slowly, okay?"

"Ah."

Wu Shengqian finally agreed, no longer looking at Li Erchuan, and followed Yang Xiaotian out of the bullpen.

Outside the bullpen, there were many villagers waiting to watch the excitement.

Wu Shengqian was too lazy to pay attention to them and pulled Yang Xiaotian into the truck. The young couple went home to rest first.

On the way, Yang Xiaotian couldn't help complaining: "I don't know how we can get the evidence and catch the person who poisoned our cattle at once!"

Wu Shengqian had calmed down by now. He squeezed his wife's hand to comfort her, and then said, "It's not difficult to find evidence."

"Is there any way?"

Yang Xiaotian cocked her ears and waited for his answer.

He analyzed deeply: "The poisoner obviously wanted to kill our cattle. This time, we found it early and sent it to the veterinary station in time. Most of the cattle will be fine. So, the poisoner If you don’t achieve your goal, you will definitely feel unwilling and will do it again.”

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotian already understood.She asked excitedly: "You mean, we deliberately set up a trap to let the poisoner poison him a second time, and then we caught him?"

"As expected of my wife, she is just smarter than the average person."

Wu Shengqian praised sincerely.

But Yang Xiaotian asked uneasily: "What if our cow is really killed by him?"
