When Bai Youyou arrived with Xu Mengling, Aunt Qiao, the old lady, Bai Qingyu and his wife, and Bai Zhenzhen were already there.

She didn't know what had happened before. Bai Youyou only saw Mother Xu slumped on the ground with a dejected look on her face, her dirty face full of tear marks.

"This packet of poison is mine, but the one found in my room is not mine. I will never admit it."

"Why did you poison Aunt Qiao?"

When Xu Lingyun asked this question, his eyes swept across the expressionless face of old Qiao.

Aunt Qiao said gloomily, "Mother Xu, I have no grudges against you in the past or today, why did you poison me?"

"No grudges in the past, no hatred in the present?"

Mother Xu suddenly raised her head and stared at her with a sinister look, "If it weren't for the little beast you raised, would my daughter have passed away so early?"

Her daughter was only sixteen years old that year, just the blooming age.

If it weren’t for that bitch Bai Yaoyao, how could her daughter have caught a cold?

Aunt Qiao frowned, "Your daughter died of a cold. What does this have to do with my son?"

Chuntao lived in the old lady's yard. No one asked her to go into the water to save people that day. It was Chuntao who wanted to make a contribution that unfortunately caught a cold.

A common cold could be cured by taking some medicine, but who knew that she was so short-lived and died of a cold!

"hehe! "

Mother Xu sneered, "Two years ago, Bai Yaoyao deliberately jumped into the water at Prince Rong's birthday banquet in order to frame the fourth young lady. My daughter caught a cold when she tried to rescue Bai Yaoyao from the shore that time."

Mother Xu's words brought back a memory to Bai Youyou's mind.

That was the early winter of the year before last, when Prince Rong’s mother celebrated her 70th birthday.

On that day, most of the dignitaries in the capital went to Prince Rong's mansion to celebrate his birthday. Bai Yaoyao tricked the original owner into going to find Bai Yanlang together. Who knew that when Bai Yanlang and his group came over, she deliberately fell into the pool and said that it was the original owner who pushed her.

It was also at that time that the original owner's reputation for arrogance and domineering spread throughout the capital.

Xu Mengling also recalled what happened in Prince Rong's mansion, where she was also present.

That time, for Bai Yaoyao, she and other noble ladies scolded Bai Youyou for being so young and having a vicious mind.

She looked at Bai Youyou with some shame, and everyone else looked at Bai Youyou as well.

Bai Youyou looked calm, "That day in Prince Rong's mansion, it was indeed the fifth sister who jumped into the water by herself, and she even accused me of pushing her."

At that time, the original owner had no way to defend himself and could only be furious.

Aunt Qiao was not thinking about the incident of Prince Rong falling into the water at his mansion, but the poison in Bai Yaoyao.

She said bitterly, "Because of this, you knew that the bowl of Four Substances Soup was poisoned, but you still deliberately gave the bowl of poisoned Four Substances Soup to my daughter?!"

"Ha ha--"

Looking at Aunt Qiao's ferocious face, Mother Xu laughed crazily, "Aunt Qiao, didn't you ask Chunliu to poison her? Now it has fallen on your own daughter. How does it feel to suffer the consequences of your own actions?"

"You vicious woman!"

Aunt Qiao thought of Bai Yaoyao who was now bedridden and had lost her qualifications to be a mother, and she collapsed and rushed forward to beat Mother Xu, "I'll beat you to death!"

Bai Youyou also didn't expect that the bowl of poisoned soup was not drunk by Bai Yaoyao by chance, but was deliberately replaced by Xu's mother.

Sure enough, for those who do good, although blessings have not yet arrived, misfortunes have been kept away from them; for those who do evil, although misfortunes have not yet arrived, blessings have been kept away from them.

Captain Liu stepped forward and pulled the crazy-looking Aunt Qiao away.

Xu Lingyun looked at Mother Xu on the ground with cold eyes, "Where did you get the poison from? Was it someone's instruction?"

"I bought the poison on the black market in North City without anyone's help. I drugged Aunt Qiao just to avenge my daughter."

Mother Xu lost her husband when she was young, and her only daughter when she was middle-aged. She has been living in misery for all these years just to find an opportunity to avenge her daughter.

Although the great revenge has not been fully taken now, it doesn’t matter. At least Bai Yaoyao’s second half of life has been ruined.

Xu Lingyun frowned and said sternly, "You know, poisoning is also a serious crime. Although Chunliu didn't die because of you, according to the laws of the Great Zhou, he must be exiled two thousand miles away!"

"never mind."

A relieved smile appeared on Mother Xu's face.

She turned towards Old Madam Qiao and kowtowed to her, "Old Madam, please consider Chuntao's kindness in serving you and bury my body with my daughter."

"You are so kind, I will repay you in my next life!!"

Mother Xu shouted loudly, and in the horrified gaze of everyone, she bit off her tongue.

"what!!!"

Many timid maids screamed in fear.

Blood gushed out of Mother Xu's mouth. She lay on the ground, grinning, her eyes gradually becoming blurred.

Except for Old Mrs. Qiao, no one present could believe that Mother Xu would be so determined to die.

Captain Liu stepped forward to feel the breath of Xu's mother, then shook his head towards Xu Lingyun, "Gone."

Aunt Qiao, who was originally struggling violently with her arms clamped by two officers, stood there in a daze when she saw Aunt Xu biting her tongue to commit suicide.

"How could this be?"

She hadn't even brought up Old Qiao yet, so how could she have died?

How dare she die?!

Aunt Qiao came to her senses, struggled to break free from the official's hand, and rushed to Madam Xu's body, pushing her, "You are not allowed to die. You haven't told me who asked you to poison me!"

"Say it!!"

Old Mrs. Qiao raised her eyes and glanced at her, with a hint of contempt in her eyes.

She sighed tiredly and said to Feng Momo calmly, "When Lord Xu makes his decision, you can follow Mother Xu's will and buy a coffin to bury the body."

"Yes."

Feng Momo responded respectfully, and with Huang Momo supporting her arm, Old Mrs. Qiao walked slowly towards her own yard.

All this was beyond her expectations.

As early as when Chuntao died, Mother Xu had the idea of ​​killing Bai Yaoyao. It was Nanny Wang who discovered it and stopped her in time.

This time, she only gave a slight hint, and Mother Xu understood what she meant and went to the black market in North City to buy poison.

When she came here earlier, she was worried that Mother Xu would implicate her, but she didn't expect that Mother Xu would bite her tongue to commit suicide.

Bai Youyou looked at Old Qiao's back, feeling mixed emotions.

In a short period of time, four lives were lost...

Really like a weed.

Xu Lingyun did not expect that Xu's mother would take all the blame and commit suicide by biting her tongue.

"Take people to the North City black market to find the person who sells poison." He frowned and ordered Captain Liu, "Also, check if the Yang poison also comes from the North City."

Buying and selling drugs privately is a crime. These people are really becoming more and more rampant!

Outside the door, an officer with a sword on his waist came quickly, holding a woman with a bun in his hand.

"Sir, this was sent by General Lu, who said it was the lover of Qiao Lao San."
