The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

"What's wrong with you? Don't scare me. If Ruyue knew, she would never make cake for me again."

Shen Chou, who was originally attending class, suddenly vomited blood and then fell to the ground shaking all over. Dean Lin was so scared that he quickly called a doctor over. However, after the doctor gave him an injection and some medicine, Shen Chou still continued to vomit blood.

"No! This seems to be a disease that has existed since childhood, Dean Lin! I am not very knowledgeable and cannot cure it. Why don't you take the patient home and see if his family can do anything."

Home!?

Lin Yihao quickly sent someone to look for Shen Shu, but he couldn't find him at all.

This made Lin Yihao very anxious. He felt like an incompetent friend who didn't even know where his family lived!

"What should we do? Go and ask those people who are close to Shen Shu if they know Shen Chou!"

Soon, Shen Ruichen was brought over. When he saw the scene, he understood immediately.

"It's bad! Brother Shen Chou is having a seizure!"

Lin Yihao quickly pulled his arm and asked, "Is there any way to cure this disease?"

Shen Ruichen shook his head. "I don't know either. I remember that Brother Shen Chou seemed to be sick since he was a child, but he always managed to get over it on his own every time he got sick!"

Lin Yihao didn't believe it. "Impossible! Although he looks a little white, he doesn't look as sick as you say! There must be a solution! Do you know where his home is?"

"I want to send him back."

Shen Ruichen quickly helped get the people onto the Lin Mansion's carriage and rushed towards Hedong Village.

Arriving at the Shen family's house, Lin Yihao stood outside the door and kept knocking, "Sister Ruyue! Miss Ruyue!"

There was no sound from inside. It was the Shu family next door who heard the sound and opened the door. "What are you looking for Ruyue? She left three days ago and hasn't come back since."

Lin Yihao was puzzled. "Leave!? How is that possible? She even sent someone to bring water to Brother Shen today! Where are the other members of the Shen family?"

The tree lady shook her head. "Then I don't know. Why don't you go to the Yu family in the village and take a look?"

Lin Yihao immediately came to the Yu family under the leadership of Shu Pozi!

Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan heard the sound, quickly put on their clothes and came out.

Jingyue and Mohuan stood at the door and asked, "Master! Madam! This man claims to be the young lady's friend!"

After seeing Lin Yihao, Yu Dehou quickly let someone in. Then he saw Shen Chou being carried in behind him, with a worried look on his face.

"What happened to Xiaochou?"

Lin Yihao said anxiously, "This happened this evening. First he vomited blood, then his whole body started convulsing, and then he lost consciousness. The doctor said it was an illness he had since childhood!"

Liang Shulan quickly called for someone to carry Shen Chou inside, "Oh no! He's really having a seizure, Dehou! Go get that water!"

Yu Dehou hurried to the inner room and carefully brought out a bowl of spiritual spring water, "Shulan! This is all we have left!"

Liang Shulan and the other person skillfully fed the water to him. Only then did they have time to talk to Lin Yihao, "Mr. Lin, thank you so much!"

"Have you had dinner? Lotus! Hurry up and make some midnight snacks for the gentlemen and clean up the guest rooms."

"It's too late now, and the roads in the village are not easy to walk on. You should stay here for one night."

Lin Yihao was really worried about Shen Chou, so he nodded and agreed, "Okay! But his illness..."

Liang Shulan sighed, "We don't know what the disease is. We heard it's been there since childhood, but it doesn't seem fatal. Ruyue should have a way to treat it, but she's been gone for three days..."

Three days! ?

Lin Yihao thought of Shen Hua's words today again, and his doubts grew even stronger.

“Where did she go!?”

"I'll look for it!"

Yu Dehou sighed, "She went to Liuzhou Prefecture to discuss something! We don't even know where she is."

At this time, Jingyue walked out of the crowd and bowed respectfully to Yu Dehou. "Master! Madam! Give me a horse. I will go and deliver the message to the young lady. When Mr. Qin left, he gave us the address."

Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan quickly said, "Alright! Go!"

"I'll pack your things for you. Be sure to be safe this late!"

Yu Ruyue was holding the 2500 taels she had just received, and was grinning from ear to ear.

"Qin Haowen! Look! Twenty-five hundred taels in one go! If I do it a few more times, I can make ten thousand taels!"

"Oh my God! Then I'm a wealthy woman too."

This was the first time Qin Haowen had seen such a money-obsessed woman. A mere 2,500 taels made this little money-obsessed woman so happy? She was truly a woman who was easily satisfied.

He thought of his former arrogance and extravagance, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. He had followed his father to the battlefield since he was a child, killing enemies and making achievements, taking it as his responsibility to protect the country and the people. But he was unaware of the dire situation the people of Chao had been living in, and unaware of the rampant corruption of the officials below...

He watched quietly as Yu Ruyue stuffed the money into her beloved little bag, and then fell asleep with her clothes on, hugging the bag with satisfaction.

The smile on Yu Ruyue's lips made him feel warm in his heart and he had a good night's sleep!

Early in the morning! The two of them drove away in a carriage.

But at the Yu family, Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan did not rest at night. Looking at the pale and unconscious Shen Chou, they were extremely anxious. "If I had known that he was ill, I would not have drunk so much spiritual spring water."

"I don't know when Ruyue will be back. What should I do?"

Liang Shulan was also extremely worried. "Didn't he say his illness only relapsed once a month? Why has it already relapsed three times before the end of this month? And each time is more severe than the last!"

Yu Dehou and Liang Shulan both had a bad idea in their minds...

Shen Chou was dizzy. He could still clearly hear the sounds outside, but he couldn't say a word.

All he could think about now was Shen Hua's abnormal behavior and Yu Ruyue's words.

Could it be that this wasn't really an illness? Was it that someone had poisoned him? Why did Shen Hua poison him? Who had told him to do it? Was it Shen Shu? Or Shen Laocai? Or perhaps the person who was paying them?

So why?

Although he knew that he had no blood relationship with the Shen family, he really treated Shen Hua as his own sister! She was the best person to him besides the little goblin family!

Why? Did I do something wrong? Does she also think she is unlucky?

Shen Chou's heart felt like there was a big hole in it, letting in the cold wind, and it couldn't be mended no matter what.

In a daze, he seemed to be back in that dark and confined room. He looked at Shen Laocai who was tortured beyond recognition in the corner, and felt extremely hateful.

He was about to rush forward and ask why when the door of the dark room suddenly opened!

The two Shenchou looked at each other.
