Good Ending: She Swears She Will Not Let Him Die!

Chapter 330: Chapter 329: Disposal

The Manhe Garden was completely cleared inside and out.

Mrs. Zhou understood Madam Wu’s intentions; Mu Yuanjing would be secluded in the Manhe Garden, and after a year or two, she would naturally be gone.

The people watching over Mu Yuanjing would be replaced with Madam Wu’s trusted aides, ensuring no mishaps.

Killing her daughter with her own hands, the grief in Madam Wu’s heart was imaginable.

Mrs. Zhou secretly sighed.

Du Yunluo also felt immensely heavy-hearted. The disgrace of Mu Yuanjing had already hit Madam Wu hard; if she learned the sins committed by the second branch over the years, could the elderly Madam Wu handle it?

Even if she couldn’t, those evils must be unearthed, and Du Yunluo would bring the past to light.

So that she and Mu Lianxiao could grow old together and survive.

When they returned to Baijie Hall, Nanny Shan had already drilled the maids and servants.

Seeing Mrs. Zhou and Du Yunluo return, Madam Wu said hoarsely, "Ah Dan, take some people and escort Yuanjing back. Yuanjing is entrusted to your care. The medicine will be sent over early tomorrow morning."

Nanny Shan responded with respect and caution.

Du Yunluo watched Nanny Shan; Madam Wu’s decision to have Nanny Shan "take care" of Mu Yuanjing must be resolute.

"Lian Yu should go down too. You and your husband keep a close watch." Madam Wu glared intensely at Mu Yuanmou and the Lian Family.

Mu Yuanmou grabbed Mu Lianyu’s collar, grunted, "I’ll deal with you when we get back!"

The Lian Family looked as if they wanted to persuade but didn’t dare, and the three of them bid farewell to Madam Wu and returned to Fengyu Courtyard.

The room suddenly became colder, and Madam Wu, who had been holding on, fell back on the Arhat Bed, closing her eyes and breathing heavily.

Mrs. Zhou and Du Yunluo hurriedly helped to soothe her.

Madam Wu waved her hand: "I’m fine, I can’t afford to be unwell."

Mrs. Zhou glanced at the Western clock, advised, "It’ll be a while before dawn, Madam, why not rest for a bit? We’ll handle the matters behind, the Lian Xiao’s wife and I will take care of it with discretion."

Madam Wu gave a faint smile, held Du Yunluo’s hand, and said, "Your second aunt is like that; she probably doesn’t have the spirit to manage the house anymore. Fortunately, you’ve learned just about everything you need; put in a bit more effort."

Du Yunluo lowered her gaze and agreed.

In Fengyu Courtyard, Nanny Zhu stood under the veranda of the main room, and upon seeing the masters return, she quickly saluted.

The Lian Family glared at her and pushed open the door.

Mu Yuanmou kicked towards Mu Lianyu’s backside hard.

Mu Lianyu staggered, was tripped by the threshold, and almost rolled into the room.

The Lian Family reached out to help their son but was glared at by Mu Yuanmou, and could only awkwardly retract their hand.

Zhu Shan guarded outside the door, and the Lian Family whispered to Nanny Dong, "Where’s Lian Hui?"

Nanny Dong dragged from sleep, already alarmed by the big incident, said, "Lady is in the side courtyard; I’ve been watching. The lights in the side courtyard haven’t been on, likely she doesn’t know about this yet."

The Lian Family nodded, about to question Nanny Zhu, when Mu Yuanmou made Mu Lianyu kneel.

"Look at the mess you’ve made!" Mu Yuanmou suppressed his voice, gritting his teeth.

Mu Lianyu looked up at the Lian Family.

The Lian Family’s heart softened, yet worried about Mu Yuanmou, snapped at Mu Lianyu, "What are you looking at me for? Counting on me to protect you? Thinking of me now? Did you think of your father or me when you made trouble? Did you think of your brother and sister?"

"Mother, I..." Mu Lianyu’s face flushed red.

"Incapable of anything but causing trouble!" The Lian Family glared at Mu Lianyu, then turned to Nanny Zhu, "What happened exactly?"

Nanny Zhu pulled at her lips; she felt "incapable of anything but causing trouble" described her, yet only she knew the situation best at the time; she was forced to recount everything again with grit.

Mu Yuanmou and the Lian Family listened intently, and it matched what Madam Ma had said.

Nanny Zhu said miserably, "At that time, I thought I must catch the impostor; that’s why I bravely trespassed into Manhe Garden. I didn’t know Mr. Si was inside, or else, or else I would have..."

"Or else, would you have covered it up for him?" Mu Yuanmou blew his beard and glared, "Wait until Yuanjing’s belly grows, then I’d know I have another grandson?"

The Lian Family took a deep breath, steadied themselves, and asked, "You’ve done this disgraceful thing, and you still pretended to be a ghost! These past ten days, you’ve caused unrest in the backyard; otherwise, would so many people have been added?"

"No," Mu Lianyu exclaimed, "how dare I pretend to be a ghost; I avoid people as much as possible, why would I cause chaos in the backyard."

"Are you saying the shadows they saw weren’t you?" The Lian Family pressed.

Mu Lianyu nodded repeatedly: "I only went in and out of Manhe Garden."

The Lian Family’s heart sank; the places reported from below where the shadows were seen were some distance from Manhe Garden.

Mu Yuanmou’s brow furrowed tightly.

"Husband, could it be that someone intentionally..." The Lian Family probed.

"Intentionally framed Lian Yu?" Mu Yuanmou sneered, "Then tell me, who added the night patrol? And who guessed Lian Yu would be in Manhe Garden tonight? Who pushed Old Zhu to climb the wall and force Yuanjing to open the door?"

The Lian Family widened their eyes, "It was Mrs. Shan who proposed adding the night patrol; Lian Xiao’s wife and I agreed."

Nanny Zhu’s head almost buried in her chest: "No one forced me to climb the wall; I just wanted to catch the person..."

Mu Yuanmou asked the Lian Family in a low voice, "Does Lian Xiao’s wife seem capable of scheming?"

The Lian Family was slightly stunned, shook their head after a long pause, "Her temperament was indeed different from what I initially thought, but to say she can scheme...

She’s only been married in for half a year; I don’t think she’s one with many thoughts, moreover, how would she know about Lian Yu’s affair?

She seldom interacts with us, apart from Baijie Hall, she hasn’t even met Lian Yu, let alone get along with Yuanjing.

The two of us were kept in the dark for a year by this brat, she..."

The Lian Family pursed their lips.

Mu Yuanmou clenched his fist, said, "Then it can only be Lady An."

Lady An had long lost the will to live, hence she would go all out, swapping Mu Yuanjing’s medicine first, then opening the door tonight.

The Lian Family thought about it briefly and felt it made some sense.

Mu Yuanmou pondered back and forth, said, "Regardless, we should stay low-profile for these days, don’t cause any more trouble.

Feign illness for a while; one, to keep an eye on this brat, and two, to see the prowess of Lian Xiao’s wife’s management.

Mrs. Shan went to Manhe Garden; besides her two guardians, Lian Xiao’s wife only has Nanny Su to rely on."

The Lian Family agreed, pondering, "I understand the husband’s meaning; it’s just the right opportunity to scrutinize whether Lian Xiao’s wife can scheme."

Mu Yuanmou retreated to the inner room to rest; he didn’t let Mu Lianyu stand up, and the Lian Family didn’t dare to let him rise either.

The mother and son, one sitting and one kneeling, waited like this until daybreak.
