Chapter 745: Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected!
Gu Xiaoxi did not let Old Lady Gu lead her by the nose, but asked, "When did Gu Zesheng find you? Where is he now?"
Old Mrs. Gu blew her nose and said, "Just two days ago, he appeared beside my bed in the middle of the night like a ghost and grabbed my neck. I had no way to stop him..."
"Where is he now? Where did he go?" Gu Xiaoxi interrupted the old lady Gu's wailing.
Old Mrs. Gu looked at her timidly and said, "Xiaoxi, it's not that I didn't tell you, it's that I really don't know. He appears and disappears like a ghost, and he was the only one looking for me. I didn't even see where he disappeared from. I wanted to make money from you and tell you the news, but that old guy Gu Zesheng is very powerful, and I'm really no match for him! Xiaoxi, let me tell you..."
Gu Xiaoxi waved his hands, "Okay, answer whatever I ask you. Gu Zesheng asked you to go to the hospital to act like a ghost in order to scare Bai Muyu, right? Did he tell you anything? He just wanted to scare Bai Muyu, and he didn't want her life, right?"
If you want to kill Bai Muyu, you can just kill him while he is kneeling.
Old Lady Gu said uncertainly, "He said that this old woman was the one who killed Xu Yuqiu, and that Bai Muyu was a selfish and evil person. He said he wanted to kill all the people who harmed Xu Yuqiu. Xiaoxi, I think he seems to be crazy. Really, he is almost like a madman."
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Old Lady Gu, then looked at Bai Muyu who was lying on the bed with a dull look in his eyes.
"So, Granny Bai, don't you have anything you want to tell me?"
Bai Muyu was silent at first, then he laughed bitterly, "So Yu Qiu is dead, I really did kill her!"
"Grandma Bai, what exactly happened back then? Can you tell me the truth?" Gu Xiaoxi felt that his patience was running out.
All these things, one after another, were finally related to Grandma Bai.
You know, before this, their family really respected and cared about her.
Bai Muyu turned his head and glanced at Gu Xiaoxi, with a hint of moisture in his eyes.
"Maybe, I shouldn't have lived in this world a long time ago."
"It's come to this, is there anything you can't tell me?"
Bai Muyu shook his head, "No, it's not that I can't tell you, it's that I don't know where to start."
"Then let's start from when my grandmother Xu Yuqiu went to Shencheng to find you. She went to find you, and then what happened?" Gu Xiaoxi gave her an introduction.
Bai Muyu closed his eyes slightly, as if lost in his memories.
Gu Xiaoxi was afraid that she would think too deeply and then have mental problems, so he interrupted her.
"Grandma Bai, you don't have to think too much. No matter whether it was right or wrong, just tell me directly. I have my own judgment and I will make my own judgment."
Bai Muyu opened her eyes and raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
"I did make a mistake back then. Yu Qiu went to Shencheng because she wrote me a letter saying that she and her husband were going back to Huaicheng. So I made an appointment with her and asked her to stop in Shencheng so that we could meet..."
"It was me who asked her to meet! If it wasn't for my invitation, she wouldn't have gotten off at the Shencheng Railway Station and stayed in the guesthouse there. If it wasn't for this, what happened later wouldn't have happened..."
Gu Xiaoxi patted her shoulder gently, giving her some strength and preventing her from interrupting her speech because of sadness and crying.
"Yuqiu arrived in Shanghai as promised and went to my house to look for me. I was not at home that day, but my husband was. Yuqiu did not see me, so she left a letter for my husband to pass on to me, saying that she would wait for me at the guesthouse for a day..."
"My husband and I don't have a good relationship. He often flirts with other women outside. After seeing Yuqiu, he started to have unfaithful thoughts about her. After giving me the letter, he kept asking me to invite Yuqiu home and let her live with us. I was a little worried that my husband would cause trouble to Yuqiu, and I also felt a little resentful that Yuqiu was dressed too beautifully when she came, so I didn't go to see Yuqiu that day..."
"But I never expected that I didn't go to the guesthouse in time, but my husband went there secretly..."
"That night, Gu Zesheng was not with Yuqiu, and my husband almost succeeded, but in the critical moment, he was knocked unconscious again..."
"When my husband came back in the middle of the night, I heard from him that the guesthouse was on fire..."
"When I heard the news of Yu Qiu's death, I fainted and was sent to the hospital..."
"I felt very regretful and scared at the time, and my husband was afraid that the incident would implicate him, so he left Shanghai that day and went to another place..."
"I didn't look for him at that time. I wanted to deal with Yu Qiu's funeral, but the fire case was closed as an accident that day. Even when I went to find Yu Qiu's body, I was blocked by various people..."
"That night, someone came to my house, banged on the door, and made a lot of noise, forbidding me to meddle in other people's business. My wife was even beaten secretly..."
"I had no choice but to take my children and leave Shanghai..."
"When I returned to Shanghai and tried to find out the truth about what happened, I couldn't find many clues..."
Having said this, Bai Muyu's tears fell again.
Gu Xiaoxi also fell silent because of this.
She hadn't expected that so many things would happen during just one meeting.
After hearing all this, Mrs. Gu curled her lips and said, "You are still Xu Yuqiu's good friend, isn't that a big deal? Just like you said, if you had met Xu Yuqiu that day, maybe she really wouldn't have died!"
Gu Xiaoxi glared at Old Lady Gu and said, "Even if she did some wrong, she didn't deserve death. But you are different. You have done many more wrong things than others. I am surprised that Gu Zesheng didn't kill you."
Old lady Gu was choked for a moment, but quickly retorted: "Gu Zesheng is a just, fair and filial man. He didn't kill me because he must have thought that although I am bad, I am not as bad as this old lady. Besides, I raised your father and your aunt!"
Gu Xiaoxi snorted coldly, "That's because he doesn't know that you poisoned my mother and me behind my back. If he had known earlier, he would have killed you and Old Man Gu a long time ago."
Old Mrs. Gu was silent for a moment. "Well...they are brothers after all. Even if their bones are broken, they are still connected by tendons! We are a family. But the old woman on the bed is not. Look how miserable she is now!"
"So, is that Gu Zesheng living in your house now? After all, broken bones are still connected by tendons!"
Mrs. Gu was stunned for a moment, and then her whole body trembled, "This... can't be possible? I live alone at home!"
"How could anyone know? After all, your eyesight is not good, so it is possible that you didn't see it. Okay, hurry up and leave. I'll go back with you to take a look!" Gu Xiaoxi said, ready to leave.
She plans to go back to her old house to have a look!
