Chapter 39: A Heartless Person

Qin Yunshuang's body froze.

The problem lies with the snow lotus? !

Could it be that the Bai family did something to Xuelian? !

At this time, Bai had already handed the snow lotus soup to the old lady's lips. Qin Yunshuang didn't have time to think and quickly stepped forward. She raised her hand and knocked over the bowl of snow lotus soup.

The medicine bowl was smashed to the ground, breaking into pieces with a crisp sound, and the medicine soup spilled out and splashed all over the ground.

"Sister, what do you mean?" Bai was panicked and aggrieved. "I took good care of mom and fed her medicine. How could you..."

Old Master Qin was also stunned by this sudden change. He frowned and looked at Qin Yunshuang with dissatisfaction, "Yunshuang, what's wrong with you?"

Yunshuang is not a reckless person, she has always been gentle, calm and dignified.

Something must have happened to make him do this.

"There's something wrong with this snow lotus." Qin Yunshuang said with a cold face.

Bai's eyes flashed with guilt, but she quickly regained her composure. She looked at Qin Yunshuang with a hurt expression, "Sister, are you suspecting that I poisoned my mother's medicine?"

Qin Yunshuang stared at her coldly and said nothing.

Bai Shi seemed to have suffered a great injustice, her eyes were red, "Oh, these years, I have been the one who managed the house, worked hard, and took care of my parents. I know that as a daughter-in-law, I should do these things, and I never said anything. But I didn't expect that my good intentions in taking care of my mother would be turned into indifference by you!"

"How dare you doubt my intentions so much!"

"Since you suspect me, please ask the doctor in the mansion to check whether this bowl of medicine is poisonous or not, so that I can be cleared of all charges!"

As she said this, Bai was about to call the doctor.

[Of course she didn't dare to poison her grandmother's medicine, it's just that the snow lotus was problematic.]

[The snow lotus originally bought was for my grandmother to prolong her life, but this vicious aunt was so bold that she even stole the medicine for my grandmother's treatment and replaced the real snow lotus worth thousands of taels with fake snow lotus worth a few taels of silver. My grandmother took so many fake tonics that her health deteriorated and she finally died.]

What?

How dare Bai be so bold as to be greedy on my mother's medicinal materials?

Normally, she is in charge of the household expenses. Is this how she manages the household?

How dare you be so greedy for money?!

Qin Yunshuang sneered, "It's time to ask a doctor to take a closer look."

Bai looked like she had suffered a great injustice. She looked at Old Master Qin with red eyes, "Father-in-law, please bear witness for me. I have worked hard to run the family, the business, and the family. I have tried my best to take care of you and mother, but I didn't expect that I would not get any good in the end. Instead, my eldest sister suspected me like this... It's really disheartening."

"Once my innocence is proven, I will no longer care about this family. I will just go back to my parents' home and live my life there."

"No... Let's talk it over..." Old Master Qin said anxiously, "There must be some misunderstanding here."

"Dad, there is no misunderstanding." Qin Yunshuang said coldly, "Let's ask the doctor to come and check it out."

"You kid." Old Master Qin said anxiously, "I believe Bai is not such a person. I have seen her dedication to everyone in the mansion over the years. How could you, kid, make such a fuss with your brother's wife as soon as you return to your mother's home?"

"Dad, you can't judge a person by his appearance." Qin Yunshuang said in a cold voice, "The doctor will be here soon. Let's make a decision after he arrives."

"If it is proven that you slandered me, then you must apologize to me sincerely, elder sister." Bai said with red eyes.

"Okay." Qin Yunshuang stared at her with cold eyes, "If you are innocent, I will kneel on the ground and confess and apologize to you."

"Sister, you said this." Bai snorted coldly.

Soon, the doctor came over with a medicine box.

"Doctor, please help me check if there is any poison in this bowl of medicine." Bai looked like she had suffered a great injustice. She handed over the bottom of the soup and said, "My elder sister suspected that I had poisoned my mother-in-law's soup. Doctor, please check if there is any poison in this bowl of medicine."

As she spoke, Bai looked at Qin Yunshuang provocatively.

Qin Yunshuang smiled coldly, "Did I ever tell you that this soup is poisonous?"

Bai was stunned. "What do you mean?"

Qin Yunshuang, "Doctor, please check if there is snow lotus in this bowl of medicine."

In an instant, Bai's face turned pale. Could it be that Qin Yunshuang knew something?

Impossible!

She did this very secretly!

These medicines were all brewed by her herself. Only when she was sure that no one was around would she replace the snow lotus with other worthless medicines. It had not been discovered all these years, and Qin Yunshuang was not at home. How did she know?

The doctor stepped forward, picked up the remaining medicine residue in the medicine bowl, twisted it up with his fingers, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it——

"This is not snow lotus, this is clearly lotus flower!" said the doctor.

"White Lotus?" Old Master Qin was shocked.

Although the names of Snow Lotus and White Lotus are similar, they are very different!

Lotus white is actually cabbage, but its flowering period is similar to that of snow lotus. However, the price is a huge difference!

"What the hell is going on?!" Old Master Qin shouted angrily, glaring at Qin Yunshuang, "Didn't I tell you to buy snow lotus flowers? What is this that you bought?"

"Father-in-law, I..." Bai was panicked.

"No wonder my wife's illness has not improved. It turns out that you, a bastard, are the one causing all the trouble!" Old Master Qin's face turned ashen with anger and he almost choked on his breath.

He thought he had married a good wife, but now it seems that she is such a heartless person!

[Grandpa, your vicious aunt has embezzled a lot of money over the years! All the money you used to buy medicine for your grandmother went into her pocket. She not only embezzled the money in the mansion, but also embezzled the money outside. She used your name and your cover to accept gifts and money from many people outside.]

[I remember that the imperial court had a disaster relief fund, and that money was supposed to be used for disaster relief, but my vicious aunt was so bold as to use the money. The disaster relief fund she bought was all rotten and moldy, and she put a lot of money into her pocket. As a result, the truth was exposed, and the people complained. Everyone jointly reported the Qin family, and the entire Qin family was searched and exterminated by the imperial court! My grandparents were innocently executed, and my uncle was exiled to the frontier. Seeing that things were not going well, this vicious aunt took the money, wrote a divorce letter, and ran away secretly.]

[After all, the vicious aunt is the murderer who caused the Qin family to be destroyed! ]

Qin Yunshuang:!!!

Well, I originally thought that my sister-in-law was a virtuous and capable woman, but I never thought that she, a woman, would be so greedy! She could embezzle so much money under the name of her father, and even set her sights on disaster relief grain!
