When Lu Chenshuang and the others arrived, Nanny Xia had already arrived.

Nanny Xia did not cry loudly as Lu Chenshuang had imagined, but instead she held the lifeless Chen Youfu with a dull look in her eyes.

This scene was more distressing than crying loudly, and the people around looked at Nanny Xia with sympathy.

Lu Chenshuang only took one look at Chen Youfu and knew that he did not die from drowning.

There is a distinct difference between someone drowning and being thrown into the water after death.

People who fall into the water will definitely struggle in the water, and the mud and sand in the water will enter the throat and nasal cavity.

And because of the lack of oxygen underwater, muscles cannot function normally, so most drowned people die with rigor mortis in a certain posture.

In addition, a large amount of water will enter the chest cavity, causing the abdomen to bulge.

But looking at Chen Youfu, not only are his mouth and nose relatively clean, his body is also straight and natural, and his abdomen is not bulging due to water.

It doesn't look like he died of drowning.

Also, Chen Youfu's body had been swollen from being soaked in the water, and it was obvious that he had been dead for some time.

But it is interesting that it was only discovered this morning.

However, Lu Chenshuang did not sympathize with Chen Youfu. Chen Youfu was not a good person.

In the original novel, Chen Youfu survived to the end thanks to Nanny Xia's power.

Although the book does not say that he is the old marquis's son.

However, because Chen Youfu had curried favor with the heroine Liu Anran and served her wholeheartedly, he and Nanny Xia made great efforts to help Liu Anran take the position of mistress of Jingyang Marquis' Mansion.

Jing Zhaoyan also loved Chen Youfu and valued him very much, so he gave all the power of the household housekeeper to Chen Youfu.

However, Chen Youfu relied on his power to covet the original owner's beauty.

It is not known whether it was Liu Anran's instruction or he was just tempted by her beauty.

During the days when the original owner was locked up in the woodshed, he secretly abused her several times.

The original owner could not bear the humiliation, which also exacerbated her death.

If it were her in this life, Lu Chenshuang would never tolerate this mother and son.

If she can't even handle two old slaves, how can she handle the male and female protagonists in the future?

Lu Chenshuang admitted that Nanny Xia and Chen Youfu's current fate was the result of her step-by-step guidance.

Recalling the whole incident, she first gave Xiaoman and Guyu expensive jewelry, which aroused Hongyu's jealousy.

Then he deliberately asked Ruyi to change the lock, luring Chen Youfu to come and steal.

Once the fish was hooked, it was natural for them to be framed. Lu Chenshuang reported the case to the police in a big way, leaving Chen Youfu speechless.

The next step is naturally to guide Nanny Qi and Nanny Xia to take the next step.

Of course, these two old guys did not disappoint her expectations. Nanny Xia now has only hatred in her heart, and she is afraid that she will never be able to turn things around in this life.

The only hope, Chen Youfu, is also dead. Judging from Nanny Xia's current appearance, she is probably determined to die.

Lu Chenshuang only hoped that she could accomplish something big before she died, and it would be best if she could get rid of the Madam, which would save her a lot of trouble.

But don't blame her for being cruel. If she wasn't cruel, she wouldn't be able to gain a foothold and there would be no way she could walk out of Marquis Jingyang's Mansion alive.

Li was relieved only when she saw that Chen Youfu was dead.

When the old marquis was alive, she was able to control the entire backyard of the Jingyang Marquis's Mansion. Even though she had difficulty having children in her early years, no woman in the backyard could give birth to the marquis's child before her.

Although two illegitimate daughters were born later, they were both daughters after all, so they could just be sent away with a meager dowry, and she could still gain a reputation as a virtuous woman.

At worst, she could become a concubine of some high-ranking official to consolidate her son's status, and then she could even save on dowry.

This is a matter of both advancement and retreat, so the lady naturally enjoys it.

So even though she had not been very kind to the two concubines over the years, she had never tortured them.

The two of them lived like invisible people in the mansion.

Li felt proud when she thought of this, but at the same time she secretly hated Nanny Xia for daring to use such a sinister trick behind her back.

But it doesn't matter. She used to be able to keep the old marquis's backyard in order. It doesn't make sense for her to be bullied now that she has reached the position of lady dowager.

So Li pretended to step forward and comforted Nanny Xia, saying, "Xiuhe, please accept my condolences.

It's all because this child is unlucky. I will tell my servants to bury him properly.

I will need you to serve me from now on. Please take care of yourself."

Nanny Xia glanced at the lady, and a flash of hatred flashed in her eyes.

Although Youfu loved to drink, he had been fine for many years. How could he fall into the lake for no reason this time?

Needless to say, it must be that bitch Li who was behind this.

She was determined to bring disgrace upon Li and bury her son with her.

Thinking of this, Nanny Xia put away the hatred in her eyes and said with a choked voice: "Madam is right, it's all because of this child's bad luck.

I will always remember the great kindness of the Madam.

Everything is up to the Madam. "

Li smiled and said, "That's right. Don't worry, I will never mistreat Youfu."

After that, he turned to Aunt Hongyu and said, "Madam Qi, please give orders that Youfu's funeral should not be neglected."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Qi quickly agreed.

The lady did not really want to hold a funeral for Chen Youfu, and Madam Qi naturally understood that.

They just bought a thin coffin and buried him hastily that day according to the servants' custom.

Nanny Xia was devastated and her hair turned white overnight.

Lu Chenshuang didn't say anything after hearing this.

Instead, he asked Guyu to find Haiyun.

When Haiyun heard that Lu Chenshuang was looking for her, she quickly put down what she was doing and followed Guyu to Lishuang Garden.

Lu Chenshuang has been rewarding her with a lot of money recently, which is more than what she has received in all the years she has been with the lady.

Besides, Lu Chenshuang was married to the Marquis's mansion by the young Marquis. Sooner or later, she would become the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, and she was just pledging her loyalty to the future mistress in advance.

The more Haiyun thought about it, the more relieved he felt.

Lu Chenshuang looked at Haiyun's smiling face and asked, "It seems that Madam Tai is in a good mood recently."

Haiyun smiled and said: "That's right, Madam Tai has a smile on her face all day long.

And I even ate one more bowl of rice than usual.

To be honest with you, madam, as servants, we can only be well if our master is well.

I envy my two younger sisters, Xiaoman and Guyu, for being able to follow the lady.

Look at what they are wearing and on their heads, they are much better than those two serious ladies.

Who in our house doesn’t envy them now?”

Lu Chenshuang glanced at Guyu and Xiaoman and said, "Did you hear that? You two are being envied.

Next time, be careful and I will whip you if you make me angry."

Xiaoman and Guyu looked at Haiyun with bitter faces when they heard this.

Guyu also complained: "Sister Haiyun, how did Xiaoman and I offend you? Please tell me clearly and we will correct it.

Sister is the apple of our girls' eyes now. Whenever we have something good, we have to leave a portion for her. We have always respected her, so please don't harm us."

Haiyun felt proud when he heard this and laughed out loud twice.
