Duke Fuguo was terrified at the thought, "Could it be that in the future, if I, your father, block your way, you will want to get rid of me too?"

The brother and sister kowtowed and denied it, "Father, your words are too serious. We dare not do that!"

"Don't dare? I think you dare! Go! Go to the ancestral hall and kneel down! No one is allowed to come out without my order!"

The two of them looked respectful on the surface, but they were actually feeling lucky in their hearts. Look, for a crime involving human life, all they had to do was kneel down in the ancestral hall.

He won't be staring at him, so who would know whether he is really kneeling or not?

Everyone had left, and only Duke Fuguo and his follower Lao Zhang were left.

"Master, let's go see the third young lady? Do you want to call a doctor?"

Duke Fuguo wanted to walk towards Taoyuan, but after taking two steps, he stopped again, "Forget it, she may not want to see me... She has her elder sister with her, nothing will happen... I'm tired, let's go back..."

Lao Zhang lowered his head and said yes.

But I couldn't help but feel sorry for the eldest and third girls.

Back then, the lady was such a good person, but she had such a miserable life.

The lady today is really not even a little bit worse than the lady back then...

But even if he was full of grievances, he had no place to vent, because he was just an insignificant servant... If he told the secret in his heart, he would probably die...

In Taoyuan, Yuzhan boiled some hot water for Mu Yingyu to take a bath.

The little girl sat in the bathtub, crying loudly.

Finally, he buried his head in the water and did not come out until he could no longer hold his breath.

"Get up if you feel hot. Don't keep soaking in the water. Get up and put on your clothes. Yuzhuan has made ginger soup and calming tea. Drink it and take a nap. You will be fine tomorrow... Where's Chuntao..."

Mu Yingyu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then she covered her face and started to cry, "Chun Tao is dead... I saw her being pushed into the dry well in the backyard by the maid next to my second sister... and stones were thrown into it... It was just like what I saw when I was a child..."

Mu Qingyan walked over, hugged her head and stroked it gently.

I felt sad too.

Chuntao, that girl is only fourteen... She is still so young...

"I originally thought that she would at most set up a trap to make you lose your reputation or something. As long as you were not in the mansion, she would not be able to do anything to you... But, but I didn't expect that she would be so cruel... She wanted to kill me and let a stranger hand you over to the authorities. You will be charged with murder and lose your reputation... If you let a stranger get close to you, you will not be able to marry Prince Ling. She wants to cut off your escape route and let you die in disgrace..."

Mu Qingyan picked her up, dressed her, and let her lie on her bed. "From now on, you will live with me... Although my yard is small, it is very quiet. If you don't want to live in the mansion, I have another small yard outside. You can live there for a few days to relax."

Mu Yingyu experienced a life-and-death experience and was completely depressed.

She shook her head. "After all, I am the third daughter of the Duke's Mansion and I can't go out. Unless I get married..."

As if she had thought of something, she suddenly took her hand and said, "Sister, you are good at judging people. Please help me find a good family... I want to get married, and after getting married, I can live my own life..."

Mu Qingyan felt that her complexion was not right, so she reached out and touched her forehead. It was indeed very hot. "Lie down first. I'll get you some antipyretic medicine. We can talk about getting married later."

Mu Yingyu also felt her eyelids were heavy and her throat felt like it was burning.

She nodded and lay down obediently.

Fortunately, Mu Qingyan prepared some commonly used medicines, so she could temporarily prepare a fever-reducing medicine. She divided it according to the dosage and asked Yuzhan to boil it.

When the medicine was boiled and cooled and brought over, Mu Yingyu had already had a fever and started talking nonsense.

Mu Qingyan helped her up and asked her to drink the medicine as if coaxing a child.

Seeing her calm down after drinking the medicine, Mu Qingyan couldn't help but sigh, what a pitiful little girl! Although she seems carefree, she is actually more sensitive than anyone else. She has been ignored by her parents since she was a child, and she has accumulated countless grievances and resentments in her heart. However, she has not developed dark thoughts because of jealousy, which is really precious.

"Miss, the third lady is so pitiful..." Yuzhan couldn't help but tear up as she watched.

Mu Qingyan sighed, "Who said it wasn't true... You go to sleep, I'll just stay with her. Take the medicine and have a good sleep, we'll talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow..."

There are no parents in this world who can treat everyone equally.

However, Lan and Mu Sinian are really too biased.

Everyone knew why Mu Yingyu fell into the water, but no one sent anyone to take a look, or even ask a question.

Mu Yingyu grew up in such an environment, but she didn't grow too crooked. God really has a good eye...

"My dear, I will keep watch over you. There is no reason for me to let you stay up all night..."

Mu Qingyan patted her shoulder and said, "Be obedient and go to sleep..."

Tomorrow, we have to dig up Chuntao's body and bury her... We can't let her be trapped at the bottom of the well forever, becoming a wandering ghost...

Mu Yingyu might feel more at ease if Chuntao could be buried properly.

Mu Qingyan thought that she was probably crazy. She actually helped the daughter of her enemy...

The Lan family has countless names in their hands, and Mu Ruge is not innocent either. But Mu Yingyu is not wrong...

She jumped in to save the original owner when she fell into the water, and later came back without hesitation outside the city to face the killer with her. She remembered all these things and appreciated the favor.

No matter what Lan had done, she was willing to take care of this little girl who had not made any big mistakes.

Mu Yingyu had been in a coma the whole time. She sweated a lot in the second half of the night and her high fever subsided.

Mu Qingyan helped her wipe the sweat off her face and changed her clothes. Seeing that her condition had stabilized, she slept on the low couch beside her for two hours.

The next day, Mu Yingyu, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened her eyes. She turned her head and found Mu Qingyan sleeping on the low couch.

A hint of self-mockery flashed across her lips. Although she was delirious due to fever last night, she knew that it was the elder sister whom she always bullied and ridiculed before who took care of her all night.

And her closest relatives, her father, mother, brother, sister, didn't even show up...

They all knew what happened yesterday, but they didn't even give her an explanation or apology.

It is better to have no relatives like this...

She wanted to get up and cover Mu Qingyan with a blanket, but as soon as she moved, the person on the couch woke up.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, stood up from the couch, walked over and touched her forehead, then yawned and said, "Your head isn't hot anymore, do you still feel uncomfortable?"
