As soon as Ye Lanyin finished speaking...
Granny Mei looked at the old lady in a panic.
The old lady was seething with anger, but had nowhere to vent it.
After being looked at by Granny Mei, he couldn't help but get excited.
"Granny Mei, why are you looking at me like that? Even if I were your master, I can't save you now."
"Even if you can't care about yourself, you should at least care about your child outside. How could you do such a thing?"
"I wanted to plead for you, but now that Lan Yin is showing no mercy and won't let you off, there's nothing I can do!"
When Granny Mei heard the word 'child', she couldn't help but tremble.
Ye Lanyin watched the old lady direct and act as if she were watching a play.
But he didn't expose her lie.
"Since Mother has said so, and since Granny Mei is your personal nanny, I can't really deal with her. Mother, you should decide what to do yourself."
The old lady felt a lump in her throat.
That damn bitch!
Knowing full well that the dead cannot speak, she pretended to be stupid and let herself be dealt with.
Overwhelmed with anger and frustration, she swallowed a mouthful of metallic sweetness that filled her throat.
"Yes, it's naturally up to me, the master, to decide."
"Men, gag her and drag her away to be beaten to death, so the neighbors won't hear."
Granny Mei stared wide-eyed, struggling to look at the old lady.
The old lady closed her eyes, avoiding her gaze.
Outside the courtyard, sticks struck flesh, making 'bang bang' sounds that echoed in the air.
The old lady was terrified.
He held his hands tightly, not letting himself show the slightest sign of distress.
Sudden.
The sky, which was originally clear and blue, was now covered with dark clouds, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
The next second, a strong wind howled, rustling the leaves in the yard and adding to the eerie and terrifying atmosphere.
The raindrops began to fall sparsely.
"It's raining, quick, let's find shelter first."
As the raindrops fell, the servants rushed into the porch to take shelter from the rain.
Then, it gradually turned into a dense downpour.
Granny Mei, standing in the courtyard, appeared even more desperate in the cold rain.
Rainwater washed away the bloodstains on her body, dripping onto the ground.
Holding the child, Ye Lanyin looked at Granny Mei with an expressionless face, her eyes filled with an unprecedented coldness.
Just as her gaze fell upon Granny Mei, a blinding bolt of lightning ripped across the sky, roaring like a giant dragon, and struck Granny Mei directly in the chair.
"ah--"
The crowd screamed in terror, covering their heads and crouching on the ground to avoid the sudden natural disaster.
The old lady was also startled by the sudden lightning, her eyes wide open; she had never expected such a thing to happen.
So frightened, she slid off the chair in the main seat.
After the lightning, the courtyard was deathly silent.
The group cautiously approached and saw Granny Mei lying on the ground, her body charred black and emitting black smoke.
"She's dead! Granny Mei is dead!" a servant exclaimed.
Ye Lanyin suppressed her shock and turned to look at the old lady on the ground.
"There are gods watching over us, Mother. It seems even Heaven knows she did it!"
The old lady's limbs were weak, and no matter how the maids tried to help her up, she couldn't get up.
The guards were already stunned.
He followed the Regent to countless battlefields and killed countless people.
This was the first time he had ever seen such a punishment.
Big event!
Big event!
After seeing the guards off, Ye Lanyin personally went to the old lady's side and reached out her jade-like hand to help her up.
"Mother, why are you so frightened all of a sudden?"
"You punished this wretched servant for Wanwan's own good. Who outside would dare say you are heartless?"
The old lady was filled with hatred.
Heartless?
That bitch!
She did all the good deeds!
"Please get some rest. I have other things to do in the yard, so I'll head back now."
Step outside.
Ye Lanyin suddenly stopped again.
"Oh, right, Mother, the concubines in the manor have been serving the Marquis diligently these days. I plan to raise their ranks. I'll make Yu Shuang a concubine, and the others will be honorary concubines."
"Although they are all concubines, they are still of higher status than ordinary concubines, so their offspring will be of higher bloodline."
After saying that, she left without looking back.
The old lady was left behind, coughing incessantly.
Back at Furong Courtyard.
Ye Lanyin happily coaxed Lin Wanwan.
"Madam, the Old Madam is ill." Huaxin said with a smile as she entered.
Ye Lanyin then instructed, "Tell the servants that Mother needs to rest and no one is allowed to disturb her."
"It is Madam."
"By the way, are you still delivering the chicken soup from a few days ago?"
"Reporting to Madam, the old lady needs to eat this every day."
"Let's stop starting today. Her health isn't good, and taking too many supplements might be too much for her."
"Yes, I will go and give the order right away."
[Hehe, Mom's been keeping quiet until she makes a stunning statement!]
[Worship, worship.]
Lin Wanwan, who is almost eight months old, has finally grown teeth.
Drooling was dripping all over the floor.
Ye Lanyin couldn't bear to scold her, so she gently wiped the drool off her face with a handkerchief.
"Our Wanwan finally has teeth!"
"Chirp chirp..."
"Madam, the Empress's personal maid has arrived."
"What's wrong?"
"The Empress wishes to ask you whether Wanwan is safe and sound."
Since Wanwan disappeared, Ye Lanyin went to the palace to ask the Empress for help.
The Empress agreed without hesitation.
Then the regent's children also disappeared.
