The Marquis of Zhenbei frowned.
The old lady was immediately displeased, "Lanyin, this hasn't been clarified yet, how can you beat her to death?"
"I'll take him back for a thorough interrogation. If it's really true, it won't be too late to have him beaten to death."
The two young cooks nodded and hummed in agreement.
"Mother, seeing is believing, and the doctor is here too. Do you think the doctor made a mistake in diagnosis?"
"Lanyin, why are you being so aggressive? I just don't want you to have a bad reputation, so I'm stopping you." The Marquis of Zhenbei took a deep breath.
He knew about these two young chefs before.
His mother wanted to keep an eye on them, but he turned a blind eye.
But this poison...
"My lord, what does it matter if I gain a bad reputation to save the child?"
"It's better than my child being murdered!" Ye Lanyin said, tears streaming down her face.
"Isn't Rui'an your child?"
Upon hearing this, the Marquis of Zhenbei trembled with fear, his face filled with panic. "How...how could this be? Of course, this is my child."

Fifteen minutes later, blood stained the ground, and the servant coughed up blood and fell weakly off the chair.
With a loud bang, everyone present shrank back in fright, and the timid ones even collapsed to the ground.
The blood flowed down the slope to the old lady's feet.
The old lady's heart trembled, and she kept backing away.
"What happened today is just to remind everyone."
“If anyone dares to betray their master for personal gain or secretly plot against others, I will not let them off lightly.”
"Do you understand?" Ye Lanyin's eyebrows furrowed, her cold gaze sweeping over the crowd.
The maids knelt down one by one: "This servant understands."
“Mother, my mother left the cook for me so that we could eat better.”
"I never expected that I would cause my mother such fear; it is truly my fault."
“Today, I, your daughter-in-law, will take the initiative to return the cook to my mother. Afterwards, I will definitely hire a new one.”
