Chapter 116 I can’t sleep tonight, so I come here to have a fight with my aunt!
Lan Xiyue frowned slightly, the doubts in her heart were like the lingering drizzle in spring, which could not be shaken off.
Did the original owner's mother really die from heavy bleeding during childbirth? This question was like a fine needle, gently plucking her heartstrings.
"Grandma, did mother really die from heavy bleeding when giving birth to me?"
A barely perceptible panic flashed across the old lady's eyes that had seen so much vicissitudes of life.
"Yes... Yueyue, grandma is a little tired and wants to take a rest." There was a hint of fatigue in her voice.
Lan Xiyue felt mixed emotions and nodded, "Okay, Grandma, have a good rest. Yueyue won't disturb you anymore."
Lan Xiyue felt a bit heavy-hearted as she left the wing. She called a maid and asked her to call Chuchun and Chuxia. After leaving the Protectorate Mansion, she boarded the carriage prepared by the Protectorate Mansion.
Chuchun noticed carefully that the young lady seemed to be worried: "Miss, what's wrong with you? You seem to be worried."
"It's okay." After saying that, Lan Xiyue closed her eyes and rested.
Seeing this, Chuchun didn't bother her anymore.
After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Lan Xiyue went straight to her room and locked herself in the room until night fell and everything was silent.
Lan Xiyue jumped out of the window lightly, like a ghost in the night, quietly moving through every corner of the marquis' mansion.
Lan Xiyue easily avoided the patrolling guards and came to Yun Qing's room quietly.
An idea flashed through her mind, and a silver needle suddenly appeared in her hand. She pierced the acupoint of the night watchwoman, and the maid fell into a deep sleep.
Lan Xiyue's eyes were as sharp as torches as she stared at Yun Qing lying on the bed. She flicked her fingers, touching several points on Yun Qing's body.
Yun Qing suddenly opened her eyes, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes: "Lan Xiyue?"
Yun Qing's eyes flashed with disbelief, "Great, I can speak now."
These days, she seemed to be trapped in a silent world, paralyzed in bed, and could only make babbling sounds. The despair and helplessness almost pushed her to the brink of collapse.
"Someone, let Rouer come to see me." There was a hint of urgency in Yun Qing's voice. She was eager to see her beloved daughter and share this sudden joy.
However, she was responded with a cold and teasing voice: "Aunt, it's the middle of the night now, you'd better stop torturing Sister Rou'er."
Lan Xiyue was sitting on the edge of the bed at this moment, with an ambiguous smile on her lips.
Yun Qing frowned and looked out the window at the dark night. "Then why did you come here so late at night?"
Lan Xiyue glanced at her nonchalantly and said, "Of course I came to see how my good aunt is suffering!"
Yun Qing widened her eyes and glared at Lan Xiyue: "You...Lan Xiyue!"
Lan Xiyue, however, seemed completely oblivious to her anger. She raised her eyebrows slightly and continued, "Oh... by the way, Auntie, you might not know yet, but after Grandmother's birthday in a few days, Sister Rou'er will be marrying Cousin Yunhua."
"What!" Yun Qing heard this, her eyes widened, her voice shrill, "How can Rou'er marry that loser Yun Hua! No, absolutely not! Rou'er wants to be the Crown Princess, you lied to me!"
Lan Xiyue looked at her, a sneer flashing in her eyes. "This is all thanks to you, Auntie. Have you forgotten what you arranged? Sister Rou'er and Cousin Yunhua are already husband and wife. How can she still be the Crown Princess? Naturally, she should marry Third Cousin and be his wife. Our Marquis Mansion and the Protectorate Mansion will be even closer. How is that? Is Auntie happy?"
Yun Qing was struck by lightning when she heard this, and her mind went blank. She recalled Rou'er's red eyes when she came to see her every day. She thought Rou'er was worried about her, so she was sad. Could it be because of this?
"Ah! How is it possible? Why wasn't it you and Yun Hua?" Yun Qing finally reacted, staring at Lan Xiyue with a sharp gaze. "It was you, you did it? And I was paralyzed in bed, unable to speak, and now I can speak again. Is it all because of you?"
Lan Xiyue smiled slightly, spread her hands, and admitted frankly: "Yes, it was me who made you, Auntie, paralyzed in bed, a quiet mute. I couldn't sleep tonight, so I ran over to have a quarrel with you, Auntie."
Yun Qing's face was distorted, and her vicious eyes stared at Lan Xiyue, who was leisurely and contented beside the bed.
"Lan Xiyue! You bitch, I raised you for sixteen years, and you treat me like this? I am your aunt and your mother, are you crazy?" Yun Qing's voice trembled with anger, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
"Calm down, calm down. Don't be so angry. Be careful not to get a brain hemorrhage from anger and die immediately."
As she finished speaking, Lan Xiyue pricked Yun Qing a few more times.
"What did you do to me?" Yun Qing felt a chill rising from her spine. She looked at Lan Xiyue in horror. Her voice became extremely hoarse, as if her throat was strangled by an invisible hand. Was it because of the injections she had just given herself?
There was a playful glint in Lan Xiyue's eyes. "Don't be afraid. It's the middle of the night. I just asked you to keep your voice down so as not to disturb others, don't you think?" Her tone was light and cheerful, as if she was doing something insignificant.
Yun Qing stared at Lan Xiyue as if she had seen a ghost. The once familiar face now became so strange and scary in her eyes.
"Oh, aunt, I remember hearing from the elders in the mansion that you and my mother had a deep sisterly bond. When my mother gave birth to me, aunt ignored the bloody scene in the delivery room and insisted on staying with my mother. Aunt, tell me, did you do anything to my mother during her delivery?"
A hint of panic flashed across Yun Qing's eyes, but she quickly calmed down.
"I...I don't know what you are talking about. What do you mean by manipulation?"
The silver needle in Lan Xiyue's hand swayed gently in front of Yun Qing's eyes, like a death spell.
"Aunt, you know I have a bad temper. If you don't tell the truth, I'll stab you in the eye with my shaking hand. You'll never be able to see again. Even if you can get up, you'll still be blind."
Yun Qing's face turned pale. She finally realized that Lan Xiyue in front of her was no longer the little girl who was at the mercy of others, but a devil. She shouldn't have kept her in the first place. Even if her mother hated her, she had to get rid of this scourge. However, it was too late.
"Lan Xiyue, your mother died of a difficult labor and heavy bleeding when she gave birth to you. It's you who killed your own mother!" She shouted in a hoarse voice, as if she wanted to vent all her resentment and fear.
