Chapter 240: This threat is too vicious



Wang frowned and pushed her hand away in disgust, "Yuhuan, help me get dressed."

After putting on her clothes, Wang led a group of maids and servants to Deng Lei's yard.

She didn't believe in female ghosts at first, but when she actually saw Deng Lei, she was so frightened that she took several steps back, "This, this..."

Aunt Zhao hid at the back and didn't dare to look at Deng Lei's face at all.

She felt so unlucky that something like this happened to her! She would never dare sleep with a man again.

"Go and see if the master is still breathing." Wang came to her senses and instructed Aunt Zhao.

"Madam, I, I dare not..."

Unfortunately, Wang Shi had no mercy on her and even sneered, "Don't you dare? You've always dared to go against me, the wife of the first wife. What else do you dare not do? Go!"

Aunt Zhao gritted her teeth and prepared to pretend to faint to avoid the situation.

Wang Shi seemed to know her plan in advance, "If you dare to faint, I will leave you here and let you stay with your beloved master forever and ever."

This threat is too vicious!

Aunt Zhao had no choice but to tremble and step forward. She mustered up the courage to put her hand under Deng Lei's nose. After feeling his breath, she suddenly pulled it back, "There's breath! The master is still alive!"

There was no expression of excitement or joy on Wang's face. She had no feelings for Deng Lei any longer. As long as she could sit in the position of Mrs. Deng, she didn't care which little witch he liked to fool around with.

Wang sat down at the table and slowly told the maid, "Go and get the doctor."

Afterwards, she carefully interrogated Aunt Zhao. She didn't believe in the story of a female ghost. She thought that maybe that little bitch Zhao made it up because she was afraid that something bad would happen to her so that she could shirk responsibility.

"Madam, what if the female ghost comes again? Wuuuu..." Aunt Zhao cried there.

At this moment, Deng Lei on the bed suddenly sat up in shock, gasping for breath, as if he had come back to life. Coupled with his terrifying face, Aunt Zhao screamed in fear.

Wang was also quite frightened at first, but seeing Aunt Zhao's terrified expression, she miraculously calmed down. "What are you yelling about? You're going to make a spectacle out of me even if there's nothing wrong! Shut up!"

Aunt Zhao suddenly felt like a chicken with its neck stuck. She cackled and quickly covered her mouth.

Wang looked at Deng Lei, and Deng Lei also noticed the people in the room. He realized that he was not dead and was very relieved. Then he thought of something and hurriedly touched his neck, but found nothing.

But before he could recover from the shock of losing the orb, he discovered that the feeling on his body was so wrong.

He looked down, his pupils trembled. What were these ghost-faced pustules on his body?!

Wang kindly handed over a bronze mirror. Deng Lei took it and looked at it. He was so scared by himself that he screamed and fainted.

Wang couldn't help but curl her lips, thinking that this man was becoming more and more useless. She was not scared to death by his horrible appearance, but he fainted himself.

When he woke up again, Deng Lei found that he could not move, his mouth was crooked, his eyes were squinting, and he could not control his drooling!

Wang walked the doctor to the door and came back to see him awake. He tried hard to speak but only drooled more. She felt even more disgusted and calmly told him the doctor's diagnosis: "The doctor said that you have too much Yin energy in your body, you have ghost face sores, and you have suffered a stroke. You will just have to take care of yourself from now on."

Before leaving, Wang asked Aunt Zhao to stay and take care of Deng Lei.

"Doesn't Aunt Zhao treat the master like a precious commodity? She gets anxious when she can't see him for a day. Now I can help you. You can stay here and take good care of the master."

After saying that, he led his people out of the foul-smelling yard.

"Madam, I was wrong. I will never compete with you for favor again. Please forgive me..." Aunt Zhao wanted to chase after her and ask Wang to take back this terrible order, but unfortunately she was pushed to the ground by the maid.

Immediately afterwards, the courtyard door was locked from the outside with a bang.

Aunt Zhao lay on the ground, shedding tears of regret.

If she had known this earlier, she would not have taken advantage of her master's favor to ignore the mistress. Unfortunately, there were no ifs, and now she could only swallow the bitter fruit of her own making.

After dealing with the concubine who always acted like annoyance in front of her in a quick and decisive manner, Wang felt as if the breath that had been stuck in her heart was released.

Then, she called her son Deng Xun and told him about Deng Lei's situation, giving him some instructions.

Because Zhao was favored before, Deng Lei valued her son Deng Cong more. He handed over the management of Yinyu Pavilion, the largest shop of the Deng family, to him, treating him as his heir. However, he sent the legitimate son born to Wang to a small shop.

Wang Shi didn't say anything, because she knew that once a man's heart was set on a leash, nothing could change it. So she simply let him be. She only told her son to run the shop well, learn more, see more, and gain more experience.

Deng Xun did not disappoint her expectations. He turned a shop that was once doing slow business into a prosperous one and was now able to stand on his own.

Deng Xun felt very complicated when he learned that his father had suffered a stroke and contracted a strange disease. In the past, he envied his younger brother for being able to receive his father's love, so he showed off in front of his father again and again, hoping to get his affirmation and praise, but he didn't.

His father rarely even gave him a stern look, but only indifference and coldness.

When he grew up, he no longer longed for this kind of care from his father, and could even treat it indifferently.

After coming out of Wang's yard, Deng Xun glanced at Deng Lei's yard from afar and then strode away.

His father had suffered a stroke and was no longer able to control the Deng family. The Deng family's assets should have been inherited by him, the eldest son. He had to take control of the situation as soon as possible.

As for his second brother who only knew how to live a life of debauchery, for the sake of brotherhood, he would not do anything to him, but he would not spend money to support him either.

In just one night, Xue Huan broke through to the second level of Qi Refining.

At the same time, she also gained more insights into cultivation.

Reading the same book for the second time will bring new insights, let alone cultivation?

If she were compared to a bottle, her original cultivation was water, and now, the new cultivation she had gained was a handful of sand, settling at the bottom.

She felt that her invisible connection with heaven and earth had become closer.

After coming out of the space, Xue Huan removed the formation. She found that Zheng Yunu had not returned all night. After having breakfast, she went to Zheng's house.

Back at the Zheng family, before daybreak, He got up to make pancakes for breakfast.

Her father-in-law and husband had to hurry up early to go quarrying in the mountains. If they were late, the good spots would be taken by others. So she had to get up even earlier to prepare breakfast and lunch for them.

When Zheng Xiujin and Zheng Feibai finished their meal and were about to leave, a voice came from Zheng's father's room: "Ajin, come into my room."
