The general kneels on the washboard again

Chapter 54 Something Happened to Old Lady Fu

The few of them were still resting in the tea house when Mrs. Zhu suddenly ran in: "Yue Niang, thank goodness you're back. I'm afraid your grandmother is not well. You should go back and check on her as soon as possible."

"What?" Yue Niang asked again in disbelief.

Mrs. Zhu stamped her feet anxiously: "Your grandmother is dying, you should go back quickly."

Yue Niang was shocked. She ran out with Mrs. Zhu and asked, "What happened? Wasn't he fine when I left?"

Mrs. Zhu was so tired that she was out of breath. "Yesterday, she was still strolling around the village, but at night, for some reason, your old woman came to Erya's house and said that she was dying."

Yue Niang was extremely anxious and rushed back to Nanshan Village as quickly as possible, followed closely by Doctor Mo.

Before I even entered the door, I heard Mother Ji crying loudly: "Old Madam, why are you so miserable?"

Yue Niang's head buzzed, and she staggered into Old Lady Fu's room: "Grandma."

Yan Qi stepped forward to check on Old Lady Fu's body, his cold voice mingled with emotion: "Master, she's dead."

The incident happened so suddenly that Yue Niang was stunned: "Grandma."

Old Mrs. Fu is the only person who has given Yue Niang the warmth of family love in her two lifetimes.

Doctor Mo, who came in slowly, began to examine the cause of death and asked Mother Ji, who had been accompanying Old Madam Fu, "What did the old lady eat in the past two days?"

The implication is poisoning.

Mother Ji thought for a while and said, "No."

Yue Niang found her voice: "Mother Ji, tell me in detail where grandma went and who she met in the past two days."

Mother Ji wiped her tears and said, "Yes, Miss, you know, after the old lady's legs and feet recovered, she often walked around the village. It's the first month of the year, and most people in the village visit relatives and friends.

The old lady went for a walk yesterday. When she came back, we heated up our breakfast and ate it. She only ate two steamed buns. The rest is here."

Doctor Mo looked at the food again and shook his head: "There is nothing suspicious about this food."

At this moment, Mother Ji, who had been talking on the side, fell down.

But he was out of breath in a moment.

Doctor Mo quickly checked: "What kind of poison is this? There seems to be something strange about this room. Let's go out first and wait for the officials from the government office to arrive."

Yue Niang didn't care much at first, but Doctor Mo's words just now woke her up.

Old Mrs. Fu doesn't have the habit of lighting incense.

The villagers who were guarding in the yard saw several people retreating and had no time to say anything.

Then a sharp voice came from outside: "Aunt Fu, how come you're gone just like that?"

The person who came was Zhang Lan'er's mother, Yang.

Yue Niang said coldly, "You don't need to be so sympathetic, right?"

"How can you be so ungrateful, little girl? After all, Aunt Fu lived in our Nanshan Village for so many years. Now that she has passed away, I came to see what happened."

But Yue Niang always felt something was weird.

Covering her nose, Yang walked towards Mrs. Fu's house with ease.

Cover your nose?

Yue Niang wanted to see what she was up to, so she followed her closely.

"Fu girl, you are still young. You shouldn't stay in this place for too long."

The implicit meaning of his words was to drive Yue Niang out. Of course, Yue Niang did as he was told, but she informed Yan Qi, who was hiding in the dark, before she left.

The first thing Yue Niang did when she came out was to clear the yard of the random people. "Sister Zhu, I'll have to trouble you to go home and prepare. I've never experienced anything like this before, so I'll have to ask for your help."

Mrs. Zhu warmly advised Yue Niang: "Don't be sad, girl. The dead cannot be resurrected. We will leave now and come back later."

Not long after the strangers left, they heard Yang scream from the inner room.

Yan Qi picked up Yang and threw her out. Yang was holding the incense burner tightly in her hand.

Yue Niang wanted to rush over and kill Yang Shi: "My grandmother has no grudge against you, why do you want to harm her?"

Yang was always stubborn. "What are you talking about? I don't understand. I just smelled the incense burner and wanted to take a closer look."

At this moment, Doctor Mo also remembered something: "I remember seeing a poison in a medical book called Colored Gardenia. The flowers bloom in seven colors. Its petals are dried and ground into powder to make incense. It is non-toxic, but if you eat the powder and then smell the incense, it will trigger the volatile poison and cause poisoning."

Yue Niang was trembling all over, filled with hatred: "Will you tell me or not? If not, I will kill you right now."

"You little whore, how dare you?" Yang was sure that Yue Niang would not dare.

Yue Niang grabbed the hoe from under the eaves and started to chop at Yang. Er Ya hugged her tightly and said, "Yue Niang, don't be impulsive."

Yue Niang's tears suddenly burst out uncontrollably: "That's my grandmother, my only grandmother."

A silver-haired man landed in the yard like a banished immortal: "Sorry, I seem to be late." The peach blossom mark on his forehead was particularly eye-catching.

Yan Qi and his companions quickly entered combat mode.

"What do you mean?" Yue Niang asked Hua Qiu.

Yang, who was lying on the ground, was frightened by the sudden appearance of Yu Jian and his men, and she half-sat down, not daring to speak.

Hua Qiu threw the two pieces of paper in his hand to Yue Niang, which were the bounty list of Tianyoumen.

The one that became invalid was Yue Niang's biological mother, Xu, and the one that became effective was Old Lady Fu, and the one who succeeded in the transaction was the poison Cai Zhi.

There are two employers. The one whose contract was invalidated is Tian Jingjiao, and the one whose contract was effective is Fu Shiqing!!

Yue Niang's eyes widened with anger: "Did you, the Tianyou Sect, do this?"

Hua Qiu said in a cold voice: "The Tianyou Sect is currently in internal strife. This poison was not sold by me. I discovered a traitor there a few days ago and found this thing. I came here without stopping, but I didn't expect that I was still a step too late. There are still some things to be resolved in my sect. Contact me again if you have any questions." Then he planned to leave.

Yue Niang held him back and said, "Take this woman back to Tianyoumen. I heard you are looking for someone to test your medicine on."

Hua Qiu received Yue Niang's signal, smiled charmingly, and walked towards Yang.

Lian Xing hit Yang's acupuncture points and she suddenly became unable to make any sound.

I could only watch the flower hill getting closer and closer.

At this time, Yue Niang also asked: "How did you poison my grandmother?"

Lian Xing untied her acupuncture points: "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

Huaqiu smiled and left the courtyard.

"When your Madam Tian sent the old lady here, she gave me some silver and asked me to keep an eye on her movements and write to her every now and then. After you came, the money kept increasing, and things became increasingly difficult. A few days ago, your old lady came to me and asked me to stop working for Madam Tian. I told her the truth, and then she gave me this powder and taught me how to use it."

"That's nonsense! How can you read?" Yue Niang obviously didn't believe it.

The more Yang said this, the more disappointed Yue Niang became. This was a conspiracy between the couple.

Yang continued, "I asked my son Jian'er to read to me. Madam Tian said that after the matter was completed, she would give me a large sum of money and let me bring my family to Kyoto. She would protect me. It was all Madam Tian's instructions."

Yue Niang's face was pale, without a trace of blood.

The Fu family has been entrenched in Kyoto for many years and has been involved in many such activities. Even if he were to confront them directly with evidence, he might not be able to bring them to justice.

The top priority is to continue to accumulate strength.

Yue Niang looked inside the house and said, "Man Yue, take some silver and go to the yamen and tell the yamen runners not to come anymore."

He looked into the house with a determined look and secretly swore in his heart that he would avenge his grandmother.

After explaining Man Yue, he looked at Yang again and said, "As for you, I won't kill you for now, but I have to think carefully about where you're going."

Yue Niang exuded the aura of a Shura from hell, and Yang moved back in fear.

Just as Yue Niang was thinking, Doctor Mo stepped forward and said, "Miss Fu, why don't you leave it to me? I'm very interested in the drug trial you mentioned. Don't worry, I will guarantee her life."

Yue Niang said cheerfully, "Okay!"

She believed in Dr. Mo because of her compassionate heart. This month, she often stayed up all night preparing medicine and often shed tears for her patients who were beyond help.

Yang was about to scream, but Lian Xing pointed at her and she couldn't make a sound anymore.

The next thing is to arrange my grandmother's funeral. After thinking about it, I decided to write a letter to Kyoto to see what attitude they maintain on the surface.
