Chapter 87 Son, I am your mother (3)
Sui Shu pushed Cai Wei away and ran out with a bloody knife in his hand.
Hehe...it's going to be even more fun next.
Caiwei was so scared that her hands were shaking, and she followed in a hurry.
When Sui Shu rushed to the main hall, the He family had already arrived, as well as the old lady's relatives from her mother's side. The old lady was sitting in the hall, her face swollen and red like a pig, and was wrapped in several bandages.
Everyone was condemning Sui Shu's behavior of beating people when they saw Sui Shu rushing into the main hall with a pale and haggard face.
"Li Xiangyun, you bitch, how dare you hit my daughter!"
When Liu Zhangyu's mother saw Sui Shu, she thought of her precious daughter's face which was swollen like a pig's head, and she rushed forward and slapped Sui Shu hard.
Sui Shu tilted her head and let Liu's mother's hand wipe her face.
"puff--"
Amidst everyone's horrified gazes, Sui Shu spat out a mouthful of blood all over Liu's mother's face.
Mother Liu was stunned on the spot. Her mouth and nose were filled with the disgusting smell of blood, which stimulated her nerves. She immediately let out a shrill scream and then fainted.
"Mom!" Liu Zhangyu was also frightened and screamed while covering her mouth.
A man with a greasy face and oily hair behind her rushed forward to support Liu's mother, whose face was covered in blood, and howled at Sui Shu: "Li Xiangyun, if anything happens to my mother, I will never forgive you!"
This person was none other than Liu Zhangyu's elder brother Liu Zhanglang, a good-for-nothing who was ignorant of poetry or song, and a spendthrift who indulged in drinking, whoring, and gambling.
Caiwei saw this scene and quickly guessed Sui Shu's thoughts. Her eyes were red and she rushed over to support the shaky Sui Shu: "Madam, Madam, how are you? Wuwuwu... Madam..."
Sui Shu held up the kitchen knife and cried miserably, "Husband! Husband! I'm so sorry. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have disobeyed Mother and shouldn't have failed to cook for her. Otherwise, Mother wouldn't have made me kneel in the snow all night in a fit of anger. I lost your only child."
The old lady was anxious and quickly called for someone to stop Sui Shu from talking: "Why are you standing there? She's crazy! Take her away!"
Caiwei was shocked and frightened, and protected Sui Shu behind her: "Get out, don't come over! Don't touch my wife!"
But Caiwei was a weak woman after all, and was no match for those old women. She was pinned down and slapped several times.
Sui Shu immediately jumped up, waving a kitchen knife: "Get out, get out!"
"stop!"
The clan elders' faces were not looking good. The title of Earl of Loyalty and Bravery was the honor of the He family. The old lady had killed He Xiao's last child, which meant that Earl of Loyalty and Bravery had no successor, and the honor of the He family was broken.
The maids looked at the old lady hesitantly, asking for her opinion with their eyes.
"Husband!" Sui Shucai ignored what the elder said and raised the kitchen knife high. "Husband, husband, I am guilty, I am guilty! From now on, you will have no descendants. I am guilty, I am a sinner. I don't blame my mother for blaming me. I will die today to atone for my sin!"
After yelling, Sui Shu was about to chop his own neck with the knife.
Caiwei's eyelids twitched wildly, and she rushed forward screaming, tightly grasping Sui Shu's hand: "Madam, please don't let this get you down!"
The old lady was so embarrassed by the stabbing that she angrily ordered the maids to pull Caiwei away: "She is such a shameless person. Let her die!"
When Caiwei was pulled away, she forcefully snatched the knife from Sui Shu's hand, for she was really afraid that her master would get excited and chop her.
Sui Shu also deliberately let Caiwei take away his knife.
"Husband, I'm here to accompany you!" After saying that, Sui Shu pushed away the old women surrounding her and slammed her head against the pillar.
At this time, Liu Zhanglang had just handed himself over to the old woman and maid after he fainted from fright, when an unidentified object appeared in front of him.
"puff--"
Liu Zhanglang only felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, then he flew into the air and hit the pillar with a bang.
Sui Shu took two steps back and saw blood flowing out of Liu Zhanglang's mouth, with the corners of his mouth curved up.
The elders of the clan were also frightened by Sui Shu's determination. Looking at Liu Zhanglang's miserable appearance, they knew how much effort Sui Shu had put in.
Sui Shu glanced around, turned around and rushed towards another pillar.
The He clan leader slammed the ground with his crutch and shouted, "Hurry up and stop Brother Xiao's wife!"
The old lady looked at her nephew who had been hit and injured with heartache, and said anxiously: "Don't stop me!"
The He clan leader was so angry at the old lady that he pointed at her and yelled, "Shut up! You troublemaker! Are you really going to destroy my brother's branch?"
The old lady's face turned red from being yelled at, and she stared at Sui Shu who was stopped by the other ladies of the He family.
Sui Shu rolled his eyes and fainted.
The clan elder was so angry that his breathing was trembling, and he asked someone to call a doctor.
Why not invite the government doctor? Because I don't trust him.
So what if it was the old lady? After all, the old lady did not share the same surname as their He family, nor did she have He family blood.
After the doctor came and took Sui Shu's pulse, his face looked very ugly.
Seeing the doctor's serious expression, the clan leader couldn't help but ask, "Doctor, how is she?"
The old doctor stroked his long goatee and shook his head. "Madam is already weak and anemic. She should have rested more and recuperated properly. This time, she must have been vomiting blood out of anger and grief."
Caiwei wiped her tears and sobbed, "After Master Bo passed away, the entire Bo's Mansion relied on our Madam to support it, and she was also being bullied by the old Madam... Otherwise, Madam's child would have been almost ten years old... Wuwuwu..."
The clan leader's expression grew increasingly gloomy, and he glared at the old lady.
If the reputation of forcing his daughter-in-law to death gets out, the sons of the He family will have no chance of marrying noble ladies.
Moreover, there were scholars in the He family who participated in the imperial examinations. If their reputation was damaged, it would have a great impact on the examinations.
Sui Shu locked the original owner's private vault, and the old lady locked the gate of Sui Shu's yard on the grounds that she was seriously ill and needed to recuperate. This was a disguised form of division of the family.
After this incident, the old lady and her family finally lived in peace for a while.
However, Sui Shu would not just settle down like that. The mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong was sparsely populated and needed some excitement.
As soon as the elders and the old lady's family left, the old lady's yard caught fire that night.
The mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was in chaos. The old lady's face was blackened by smoke and she was dragged out of the sea of fire in a panic by the servants. She rolled her eyes and almost fainted.
The housekeeper pinched the old lady's Ren Zhong acupoint while asking someone to call a doctor.
The old lady's philtrum was pinched with deep bloody marks, but she still showed no signs of waking up.
Sui Shu squatted quietly on the wall, watching this farce that ended in failure, holding his stomach and laughing so hard that he almost died.
Although the old lady often complained to the original owner about how poor and difficult the Bo Mansion was, the furnishings in her room were not cheap, and many of them were the original owner's dowry.
Before setting the fire, Sui Shu put these treasures into the space.
