Chapter 149 Dead



Seeing that Zhao Yaru's condition was getting worse and worse and she couldn't be woken up no matter how hard she tried, Mother Gu became extremely anxious.

"Have you seen a doctor? My wife is dying, why haven't you seen a doctor yet?"

The two gatekeepers glanced at each other and said calmly, "We have already reported this to the old man, but he doesn't agree to call a doctor."

Mother Gu desperately pulled the guard, "Go and beg the old man again, and tell him that our wife is dying and can't wait any longer."

The guard looked helpless and turned and walked out.

It only took a moment for the guard to return.

Seeing his frustrated face, Mother Gu sat on the ground and cried in despair.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough,..."

Suddenly, a violent coughing sound was heard from inside the room.

Mother Gu quickly got up from the ground and ran into the house.

After a while, there was a thunderous cry.

"Madam, poor madam, what's the matter with you? Please wait a little longer until the master comes back."

“…”

The guard listened to all this, a struggle flashed in his eyes, but he finally let it go.

Half a day passed and Mother Gu came out with disheveled hair.

He stared at the guard with lifeless eyes and said word by word, "The madam is gone. Go inform the old master."

The guard's face changed and the two men ran away together.

Mother Gu didn't change at all this time. She turned around and went back calmly.

When Old Master Xu heard the news, he simply waved his hand and said, "Go inform the Third Master."

"yes!"

Xu Maocai and Huang Yueping had just returned from the mountains after admiring the flowers, and his face was flushed.

Seeing the people in the mansion were so timid, he immediately became furious and shouted, "What are you doing here?"

"Master, the lady is gone."

Xu Maocai's face changed. "Gone? How come? Where did it go? You can't even keep an eye on someone. You're useless, aren't you?"

The servant fell to his knees and said, "Master, no, he didn't run away, he... he..."

"If it's not running away, then what is it? Did it grow wings and fly away?"

The more Xu Maocai looked at him, the more he felt that this was outrageous. He couldn't help but say to Huang Yueping, "Yueping, when you go back, you must discipline these servants properly. They are being managed too harshly by Zhao."

Huang Yueping nodded and said with a heavy face, "Maocai, did something happen to her?"

Xu Maocai looked disdainful, "What could possibly happen to her? She's usually like a shrew, so she's fine."

The servant kneeling on the ground could no longer bear it, raised his head, looked at Xu Maocai and said, "Master, the lady is dead."

"W-what?"

This time, Xu Maocai was completely stunned.

For a moment, no one spoke.

After a long time, Xu Maocai slowly said: "You said Zhao, Zhao..."

Huang Yueping saw this and quickly stepped forward to support him, "Maocai, you have to cheer up!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at the person who came and said, "She was fine when we left. Why did she die so suddenly? What happened?"

The servant shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I only know her. She kept crying out in pain."

"Then why don't you call a doctor?"

Xu Maocai kicked the servant who was kneeling on the ground, his face flushed with anger.

The servant stumbled and knelt down again, "Master, go, go get a doctor...but, but the old master doesn't agree!"

"You're talking nonsense! How could my father joke about human life?"

"Maocai, I'm afraid father may not know how serious it is. Calm down and don't hurt yourself. Let's go back and check it out."

As soon as Huang Yueping finished speaking, the servant nodded quickly, "Master, we'll wait for you to go back."

Xu Maocai wanted to kick again, but was stopped by Huang Yueping.

"Now is not the time to punish her. Let's go back quickly. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. This is not a solution."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

The servants breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xu Maocai walk away with the support of Huang Yueping.

Several people rushed to the mansion at full speed, but Mingzhu Garden was silent.

"How did you take care of Yaru? A good person is gone just like that. Are you going to be buried with her?"

As soon as he entered the gate of Mingzhu Garden, Xu Maocai started cursing loudly.

When the servants heard that they would be buried with the deceased, they were so frightened that they trembled and fell to their knees.

Mother Gu looked calm and didn't even want to look at Xu Maocai.

"Mother Gu, you old thing, why are you taking care of her? A good person is gone just like that, are you just eating for free?"

When Mother Gu heard the voice, she raised a sarcastic smile but did not respond.

"You old thing, you really are so bold. You ignored me when I spoke to you?"

As he said that, he kicked Mother Gu.

Mother Gu fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

"Maocai, don't be angry first. Ask Mama Gu and find out what happened. I think Mama Gu has a very close relationship with her, so it's definitely not because she didn't take good care of her."

As soon as Huang Yueping finished speaking, Mother Gu glared at her fiercely, "It's all your fault, you vixen! It was you who seduced the Master and the Madam, causing a rift. How come you weren't the one who died?"

Mother Gu opened her bloody mouth and kept cursing Huang Yueping. Huang Yueping's face became paler and paler, and finally, she was on the verge of collapse.

Seeing this, Xu Maocai hurriedly supported her and did not forget to kick Mother Gu.

"Old thing, you're talking nonsense. Yue Ping even advised me not to blame you. I think it's your fault."

Mother Gu couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood this time. Then, with a face full of sorrow, she looked at Zhao Yaru lying on the bed and cried, "Madam, look, this is the husband you have loved all your life. He has another woman and doesn't care about your life or death at all. My poor wife!"

"Madam, you are blind. How could you fall for such a man? He has been bewitched by a vixen..."

Xu Maocai's face became darker and darker as she scolded him. Seeing that he was about to resort to violence again, Huang Yueping quickly stopped him.

"Master, don't blame Mama Gu. She must be very sad to say these things. We should understand her."

Seeing Huang Yueping's humble and agreeable look, Xu Maocai felt warm in his heart and patted her hand gently. "You are so sensible. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do."

Huang Yueping shook her head. "Hurry up and take care of her funeral affairs. Let her rest in peace soon and not suffer any more."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

No matter how Mother Gu wailed, Xu Maocai strode out with Huang Yueping.

Soon, the people from the Xu family who went out to deliver the letter split into several groups and started to report the news.

White banners also began to be hung up. Seeing this, Mother Gu wanted to go to Huajinyuan to seek justice for Zhao Yaru, but unfortunately, she was blocked and couldn't even get through the door.
