Chapter 106 Exposing the Scumbag
Miss Mo left in a daze after hearing Du Wanchun's words, but fortunately she did not make things difficult for Zhang Qiuhe.
Inside the Mo residence, Liu Shengyuan was still lying on the bed, whimpering, and several doctors had come to fetch him.
"Why hasn't the swelling gone down yet?" General Mo, standing to the side, looked on anxiously.
General Mo is over fifty years old. Although his official rank is not as high as that of General Han in the capital, he is still highly respected in the army. Even though his hair is now white, he still guards the border with his daughter and son-in-law.
He valued this son-in-law from a farming family who had moved in with his family, mainly because his daughter liked him.
The doctor examined the wound on Liu Shengyuan's face carefully, his brows furrowed in confusion. "That's not right. I applied medicine to my second son-in-law last night. Even if the swelling doesn't go down today, it shouldn't be getting worse!"
Yagyu Gen's face was originally swollen like a pig's head, and now the wound is still festering, making him look disgusting.
General Mo stroked his beard. "Is there any way to cure this? If not, call a few more men for me!"
Several other doctors nearby quickly said, "General, we have all examined the second son-in-law's injuries and applied all the necessary medicines. If he still doesn't get better, we can only say that the second son-in-law is just unlucky."
General Mo was somewhat angry upon hearing this, "What do you mean by bad luck?"
The doctors quickly took a step back and whispered, "It means you've encountered a venomous wasp that's more poisonous than a normal wasp. In this situation, we can only leave it to fate. If it gets better, the swelling will go down in a few days. If it doesn't get better, it may continue to fester."
"It will continue to fester?!" Liu Shengyuan, lying on your bed, looked up in shock, his eyes filled with fear. "Then my face will be ruined."
The doctor was quite blunt with him, saying, "Disfiguring your appearance is a minor issue; the most serious problem is that you might even lose your life."
Liu Shengyuan could no longer hold on and quickly rolled off the bed. "Doctor, you must save me! I can't just die like this!"
Yes, of course he can't just die like this. He just became General Mo's son-in-law and is waiting to go to the capital with General Mo to get promoted and live a life of luxury.
The doctor quickly took two steps back, "Second son-in-law, you absolutely mustn't do that."
General Mo quickly gave a signal to the servants beside him, instructing them to help Liu Shengyuan to bed.
Upon hearing that he might die, Yagyu Gen lost all his energy and spirit, sitting there like a wilted eggplant, forgetting even the pain.
General Mo frowned as he watched from the side. He used to think his son-in-law was quite brave, but just now he looked like a coward who was afraid of death. He was slightly disappointed.
At this moment, Miss Mo returned.
When she returned, she was pale and her eyes were vacant.
General Mo thought she was worried about Liu Shengyuan's injury, so he quickly comforted her, saying, "Qingyu, don't worry, I will definitely find the best doctor to treat Hansheng's injury."
Miss Mo walked slowly forward to Liu Shengyuan's bedside and asked him in a cold voice, "Who is Zhang Qiuhe?"
Liu Shengyuan was taken aback. He raised his already distraught face, and after a moment of surprise, he pretended to know nothing and asked, "Wife, what's wrong? Who are you talking about?"
Miss Mo was startled by his evasive gaze. She gave a bitter smile and said, "I just ran into her."
Liu Shengyuan was startled again, thinking to herself, shouldn't she and that child have died in that dilapidated little house by now? How did she end up running into Mo Qingyu?
Miss Mo was not one to mince words. She strode forward, grabbed his collar, and said coldly, "She said you are her husband, and she even bore you a son, yet you want to kill them both."
Liu Shengyuan's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets. After a moment of stunned silence, he hurriedly said, "Wife, she's talking nonsense! I don't know her at all! She's just trying to extort money from us!"
Miss Mo snorted coldly and said, "Liu Shengyuan, you'd better tell me the truth. Don't treat me like a fool."
Liu Shengyuan was taken aback when he heard his own name, but he still stubbornly refused to admit it, "My wife, I really didn't lie to you. I have only married you in this life."
Seeing that he was unmoved by her words, Miss Mo slowly released him and calmed her emotions, saying, "You said you weren't lying to me, but she told me that you poisoned them, almost killing the mother and child."
Liu Shengyuan hurriedly explained, "My lady, I only bought pastries that day. You might as well go to the pastry shop and ask. I only bought the portion that I wanted to give to you."
He did buy two portions; one he bought himself, and the other he asked someone else to buy it for him.
To his surprise, Miss Mo didn't believe him at all. She grabbed his collar and pulled him again, saying coldly, "How do you know the poison is in the pastries? I've never said anything about the poison being in the pastries since I came in."
