To divorce his wife, the top scholar preferred being cuckolded to wearing a red hat.

Xingchun whispered a few words in Su Mingyue's ear.

Su Mingyue frowned: "Dead?"

"She was taken away by Young Master Yuan on the street the day before yesterday, and went with him that night. Yesterday morning, Madam Yuan found her residence, took all her property, and beat her up. She was pushed to the ground and injured her forehead. Seeing that she was injured, Madam Yuan did not make things difficult for her anymore, nor did she call a doctor for her."

She was found dead in the street early in the morning. When they found her, her clothes were disheveled, and the blood on her head was still wet. Someone recognized her and carried her to the entrance of the Prime Minister's residence, asking the Second Miss to handle the matter. The Second Miss said she was no longer a member of the Fu family and told her to go and deal with it.

“Our young lady has long since severed ties with the Fu family. The second young lady is clearly trying to disgust us.”

"This has nothing to do with us, we don't need to worry about it."

"Yes, it doesn't matter. In any case, this is not Miss's place to interfere."

Fu Jingsheng is dead, Qian Shi is dead, and now Fu Jingying is dead too.

That's great, all the people who framed her in her past life are dead.

Every cause has its effect.

They harmed her in her past life, and this is the consequence of their actions in this life.

Su Ziyu came over with her maid: "Sister, I just heard from the servants that Jingying was beaten by Madam Yuan for seducing Young Master Yuan. Because her injuries were not treated in time, she died. She's outside right now. Don't you want to go and see her?"

“I’m just her ex-sister-in-law. You’re her current sister-in-law and you don’t care, so what does it have to do with me, her ex-sister-in-law?”

“Fu Jingsheng is dead, and I have nothing to do with the Fu family anymore. Since my sister doesn’t want to get involved, I’ll have someone throw her far away.” Su Ziyu yawned: “That unlucky thing is naturally better off as far away from us as possible.”

Su Mingyue looked at her: "What you do is your business, don't try to pin the blame on me. Speaking of which, wasn't it you who caused the death of Fu Jingsheng's family? If you hadn't approached him to find a cheap father for your unborn child, saying you wanted to marry him and were in love with him, he probably wouldn't have considered marrying someone else."

He married you, and your unborn child now has a father. Logically, you should protect him. His safety ensures your child's safe delivery and a father. Unfortunately, you only used him as a tool and never thought of protecting her. If you ask me, he shouldn't have left you after his death; he should have taken you with him. That way, you and the rest of the family would be complete, no one left behind, and you could live a good life down there.”

Hearing her words, Su Ziyu's face twisted with anger: "So what if I deliberately chose him? He was originally my target, but an accident led me to discover that he had something that belonged to my sister, so I approached him, showed him my goodwill, and expressed my admiration for him. Sure enough, my sister's taste is really bad. The man she chose couldn't resist temptation at all, and soon she'll be plotting against you for my sake."

"I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have discovered that he was a scumbag, full of scheming, only interested in climbing the social ladder. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met Prince Zhan, let alone become his fiancée. In the end, my sister deserves some credit for everything I have now."

My sister really needs to change her habit of stealing men. What if the man you love marries someone else and lives happily ever after with them? Don't cry then. You should have thought about all of this sooner or later when you married Fu Jingsheng.”

“You don’t need your elder sister to worry about what will happen to you in the future.” Upon hearing these words, Su Ziyu’s expression changed and she was about to leave when she thought of something and said to Hongye, “Send Fu Jingying to the Yuan family. The incident happened at their house, so what’s the point of sending her here? Tell Madam Yuan to handle it as she sees fit, and not to dirty the Su family’s territory.”

These words, spoken to Su Mingyue, were meant to make it clear to her that she had never cared about the Fu family. Now, Fu Jingying's death had nothing to do with her.

If Su Mingyue doesn't handle it, then she'll send the person to the Yuan family and let them do whatever they want with them.

Su Mingyue gave her a slight smile: "I imagine Fu Jingying will remember your kindness in the afterlife."

"I'm afraid of her?" Su Ziyu sneered. "Even if she becomes a ghost, I won't be afraid of her."

That very night, they heard that Su Ziyu's courtyard was haunted.

First, the lights in the room would inexplicably fail to light up, and even if they did, they would suddenly go out.

Su Ziyu had just fallen asleep when she saw a disheveled woman outside the window. The woman's eyes were bleeding, and she stared intently at Su Ziyu, reaching out her hands as if to take her life.

Su Ziyu screamed in fright and ordered her servants to search the entire courtyard, but they found nothing. That night, Su Ziyu developed a high fever.

Having no other option, Madam Ruan had to send someone to invite Su Mingyue.

"Madam, I am so sorry. Our young lady received a message from the clinic saying that there was a patient who needed her to make a house call, but she just went out to make a house call and is not at home."

"Where did she go?" Fu Jingying was dead, and she knew that Su Ziyu had come to find Su Mingyue, but she did not expect that Su Mingyue would leave the mansion directly. Was it a coincidence or something else?

“We don’t know exactly where she went. We also don’t know when she will return. If the second young lady is unwell, please ask Madam to fetch another doctor.”

Unable to find Su Mingyue, Ruan had no choice but to seek help from other doctors.

Other doctors came to the house, and upon hearing that Su Ziyu had just been frightened, they determined that the high fever was caused by the fright. They prescribed some sedatives and antipyretics for her and then went home.

"Mother," Su Ziyu grabbed Ruan Shi's hand, "It's Fu Jingying, she's come back to find me. Her death has nothing to do with me, why is she coming back to find me? Go away, go away." Su Ziyu looked up and saw Fu Jingying again, disheveled and shedding tears of blood. A moment later, she saw Fu Jingsheng walking towards her with a knife in his hand.

He said she ruined his future and he wanted to take revenge on her.

She had just closed her eyes when Madam Qian grabbed her neck viciously again, demanding that she return her precious grandson to her.

She waved her hands, trying to shoo people away.

"Ziyu, Ziyu, wake up." Madam Ruan looked at her and felt very sorry for her.

What terrible things have they done? The entire Fu family is dead, and now they still want to harm her daughter.

"Bring the medicine over," Madam Ruan instructed the maid to bring the medicine over and feed it to her first.

After taking the medicine, Su Ziyu indeed fell asleep peacefully and did not have any more nightmares.

"Who brought Fu Jingying's body here this afternoon? Go and find out. Sending such an unlucky thing here has frightened my son." Madam Ruan was certain that Fu Jingying's body had scared Ziyu.

……

It's obviously a lie to say he's making a medical diagnosis.

Su Mingyue returned to Huaihua Hutong and was sitting in the house fiddling with her medicinal herbs.

Su Ziyu's hallucinations that night were indeed caused by her.

Fu Jingying's death must have cast a shadow over Su Ziyu's heart. She didn't want to marry Fu Jingsheng, so let the Fu family members take root in her heart and never leave.
