The entire Marquis's mansion regrets it? Too late, their little one has become the darling of t

Yu Ningyao, who was in Shen Jinzhu's arms, suddenly opened her eyes and stared straight at Cui Ruixin.

"Cui, how dare you plot against your mother-in-law! You deserve to die!"

Yu Ningyao's childish voice rang out, revealing an indescribable eeriness.

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

Cui Ruixin turned pale with fright.

"Yaoyao, what's wrong?" Shen Jinzhu asked, her voice trembling.

Yu Ningyao ignored her and looked at Yu Kangping instead.

Yu Kangping shivered involuntarily under her gaze.

He stammered, "Mother? But you're back?"

"You unfilial son, you fool! You've been deceived by this woman! She killed your mother! Are you going to let her harm your family?!"

Yu Ningyao shouted.

Her voice had a sharp, piercing quality typical of children, making everyone's ears ring.

No one dared to approach Yu Ningyao.

They were all terrified.

Yu Ningyao was afraid of overdoing it. The two howls she had just uttered had exhausted all her strength, so she rolled her eyes and pretended to faint.

Yu Kangjing rushed over quickly and hugged her.

Yu Ningyao then closed her eyes in relief.

[Host, your acting is pretty good.]

The system was amazed.

It's just so-so, it's a pity I can't imitate other people's voices.

Otherwise, I could use the old lady's voice to scare them.

Yu Ningyao felt a little regretful.

She quietly added something to her plan—learning ventriloquism.

After a moment of silence in the mourning hall, Aunt Rong tugged at the old Marquis's sleeve and whispered, "Has the old lady returned?"

Her voice broke the silence of the mourning hall.

The once silent mourning hall was instantly filled with a pot of hot oil, which began to boil.

Yu Kangping glared angrily at Cui Ruixin: "Tell me, was it you who caused Mother's death?"

“It wasn’t me,” Cui Ruixin quickly shook her head.

"I only left the hospital today, how can you say that I killed my mother? Waaah."

She channeled her fear into tears and cried.

“But Mother has already identified you herself.” Yu Kangping strode to the side, drew the guard’s sword, and pointed it directly at Cui Ruixin’s chest.

"If you don't tell the truth, I'll send you to keep your mother company right away."

Cui Ruixin knew she probably wouldn't be able to escape this predicament easily. She gritted her teeth and stepped forward to meet Yu Kangping's sword.

Yu Kangping was startled and instinctively withdrew his sword, but Cui Ruixin was still stabbed and bled instantly.

"Madam!" Donghe cried out and rushed forward to help her up.

Cui Ruixin covered her bleeding wound, her eyes brimming with tears.

She shouted with all her might, "The one who just spoke was clearly Yu Ningyao, how can you say it's my mother? I will never admit to something I didn't do."

Shen Jinzhu and Yu Kangjing stepped forward at the same time.

“How could Yaoyao, a child who is not even two years old, say such a thing on her own?”

"That's right, today is the seventh day after Mother's death, so it's not unusual for her to come back."

The couple worked together in unison, and Cui Rui knew that continuing to argue would do her no good.

She also pretended to faint without hesitation.

"Mother, Mother!" The eldest son's children snapped out of their daze and rushed over.

The children from the third wife's family also gathered around their parents.

Thus, the area was clearly divided into four zones.

The old Marquis and Consort Rong stood together, Yu Kangping and the guards stood together, the third wife stood together, and Cui Ruixin and her three sons stood together.

This created a situation of conflict on all four sides.

Yu Ningyao heard the news of Cui Ruixin fainting with her eyes closed, and thought to herself that it was a pity.

[Why are the old Marquis and Yu Kangping so useless? I've already finished my performance, and they still can't keep up.]

[I can't carry it, I just can't carry it.]

Fearing that Cui Ruixin would once again get away with this, she had no choice but to open her eyes.

"Father, Mother, my sister is awake!" Yu Ziying was the first to notice her movement.

"Yaoyao, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?" Yu Kangjing and Shen Jinzhu quickly looked at her with concern.

Yu Ningyao opened her big eyes and shook her head, revealing an innocent and naive look.

"Hey, where did Grandma go?"

The expressions of everyone immediately turned serious.

Children can see things that adults cannot. Among everyone present, Yu Ningyao was the youngest, so it was perfectly reasonable for the old lady to choose to possess her body.

"The old lady must have died with her eyes wide open in anger, which is why she chose to expose the real culprit who killed her today," Aunt Rong muttered at just the right moment.

The old marquis's face grew even uglier.

He stared intently at Yu Ningyao: "You just saw your grandmother?"

Yu Ningyao shrank into her mother's arms in fear and nodded: "I saw it."

She timidly pointed to the side of the old marquis.

“Grandmother was standing there just now.”

The old Marquis was so frightened that he immediately separated from Consort Rong, the distance between them greater than that between a coffin.

He felt a chill run down his spine.

He immediately ordered, "Guards, give Cui a thirty-beat beating. If she doesn't tell the truth, beat her until she does."

Upon hearing this, Cui Ruixin, who was pretending to be unconscious, instinctively clenched her fists.

That old hag, giving her thirty lashes, he really wanted to kill her!

"Hey, is Auntie awake? I saw her move her hand." Yu Ningyao pointed at her hand and shouted loudly.

Cui Ruixin quickly let go of her hand.

Everyone present was shrewd; they all knew she was faking fainting.

"What are you standing there for? Beat them!" the old marquis ordered angrily.

"Grandfather, Grandmother's death has nothing to do with my mother. Please investigate thoroughly." Yu Ziche took the lead and knelt down.

He tugged at his two younger brothers, making them kneel down and beg for mercy.

They cannot have a mother who killed her grandmother.

This matter absolutely cannot be pinned on the mother.

He glared at Yu Ningyao with resentment. If it weren't for her meddling, this matter wouldn't have been blamed on his mother.

"Please, Grandfather, investigate this matter!" Yu Ziqing and Yu Ziyuan also cried out, throwing themselves on Cui Ruixin and preventing the servants from dragging her away.

Seeing that his grandfather remained silent, Yu Ziche looked at his father.

"Father, Mother didn't do this, and it couldn't have been her!"

Even if Yu Kangping was a complete scoundrel and a muddle-headed man, he knew that his son's future was more important.

So he had no choice but to swallow his anger and say, "Father, let's lock him up first. If someone really dies, it will be difficult to explain to Minister Cui."

The old marquis glared at him: "Then give him ten strokes of the cane, in front of your mother, as a way to give her an explanation. Otherwise, she might die with her eyes open and come looking for you, her unfilial son, again tonight."

"My lord, you mustn't!" Donghe's face turned pale with fright.

Ten strokes of the cane would take half the life out of the lady.

This time, however, Yu Kangping did not try to dissuade him, and even had his servant take his son away.

Those ten strokes of the cane were indeed deserved.

It would be best to abort the bastard child in Cui's belly as well.
