Chapter 182 Mo Yunwan is dead
In the Jingzhao Prefecture prison, Mo Yunwan sat on a straw mat with a dazed look on her face.
The coroner examined Mo's body and determined that she died of poisoning. Nanny Jia's body was also found. The evidence was conclusive and she could not escape.
But she still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that the mysterious man who had been helping her since Xuzhou could save her again.
As long as she could get out of here, she was willing to risk her life to kill Cao Chunxi.
Since she can't live, it's better to let Cao Chunxi take the blame.
After waiting for several days, the prison door was finally opened again and Ning walked in carrying a food box.
Mo Yunwan's eyes immediately sparkled: "Mother, are you here to save your daughter?"
Mo Yunwan has become much thinner and more haggard.
Ning's eyes instantly turned red. She squatted down in front of Mo Yunwan and caressed her cheek lovingly: "Wan'er, I haven't had the chance to talk to you properly in many years."
Ning's voice was filled with tears, and her eyes were swollen. Mo Yunwan immediately realized that something was wrong. She quickly grabbed Ning's hand and said, "Mom, go find Shen Qingyu and tell him that I'm pregnant with his child. He's been bewitched by me and will definitely find a way to save me."
Ning was so excited that she burst into tears: "You...really have a child? When did it happen?"
Mo Yunwan bit her lip.
She was not pregnant, she just wanted to use this as an excuse to make Shen Qingyu feel sorry for her and come to save her. She needed the help of a mysterious man to escape the investigation of Jingzhao Prefecture.
Thinking of this, Mo Yunwan lowered her voice and said, "Mother, go to the Liuji Tung Oil Shop in the east of the city and find their owner. Ask him to tell the person behind them that if he can get me out, I will risk my life to kill Cao Chunxi!"
Ning Shi didn't expect Mo Yunwan to still be thinking about fighting Chunxi at this time. She couldn't help but advise: "Wan'er, if you really have a chance to get out of here, you should find a place to live a good life. How can you still think about being entangled with Cao Chunxi?"
"I've been harmed so badly by Cao Chunxi, how can I just let it go like this?" Mo Yunwan's eyes were filled with resentment. She grabbed Ning's hand and begged, "Mother, Shen Qingyuan's wife should be me. It was Cao Chunxi who took away everything that originally belonged to me. She also set up a vicious scheme to harm me. You have to help me get revenge!"
Although Ning felt sorry for her daughter, she could not completely agree with Mo Yunwan's words.
She gave up the position of Madam Shen on her own initiative, and even now she is in prison because she murdered Mrs. Mo, not because Cao Chunxi deliberately framed her.
Ning felt that Mo Yunwan was a little obsessed, so she didn't continue the topic. She opened the lunch box and took out the food inside.
"Okay, Wan'er, don't think about it for now. I brought some of your favorite dishes. Try them and see how they taste. I'll go to Liu's Tung Oil Shop and pass on the message for you later."
Ning's voice was gentle and full of care. Mo Yunwan was indeed hungry, so she took the bowl and chopsticks and started eating in big mouthfuls.
However, after taking a few bites, her face suddenly wrinkled fiercely. She stared at Ning in disbelief. Ning was confused and said, "Wan'er, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me."
"Mother...even you...hurt me."
Mo Yunwan opened and closed her mouth, making sounds with difficulty, and black blood continued to flow from her lips.
Ning's eyes were bloodshot, and she frantically hugged Mo Yunwan, screaming: "Help! Someone come quickly, please save my daughter!"
The jailer of Jingzhao Prefecture rushed over upon hearing the noise, but before the doctor could arrive in the prison, Mo Yunwan was bleeding from all seven orifices and died.
Watching her daughter die in her arms, Ning fell into a state of madness. She hugged Mo Yunwan's body tightly and shouted angrily: "It was Cao Chunxi who killed my daughter. Go and catch her quickly. I want her to pay for my daughter's life!"
Ning cried for a long time, but no one paid any attention. Finally, when she was tired, the jailer said, "It was the maidservant who poisoned Madam. She said that a few years ago, Miss Mo faked her own death and fled, and the Mo family beat her daughter to death. She also wants Madam to feel the pain of losing her daughter. The maidservant has signed and sealed the crime, and the evidence has been found. Madam, do you want to go and see it yourself?"
Ning's ears were buzzing, and she only caught a rough idea of what was said. She shook her head and said, "It wasn't this person who killed my daughter. She must have been bribed by Cao Chunxi. Go arrest Cao Chunxi and torture her severely. She will definitely confess!"
"She's the wife of a third-rank minister. How can you arrest her and torture her just because of a few words?"
The jailer had lost his patience and told the truth impatiently.
Ning was about to go crazy, but the jailer forcibly pulled her away: "Your daughter is already dead. Even if she wasn't poisoned to death today, she would have been torn apart by five horses for murdering her mother-in-law. At least she can die now with a complete body."
"What do you mean? My daughter was poisoned to death. Do I have to be grateful to the murderer?"
Ning was so grief-stricken that she forgot the dignity of a lady from a noble family and pounced on the jailer to scratch his face.
The jailer felt the pain and could no longer tolerate it. He forcibly dragged Ning out of the cell.
"This case is not yet settled. Miss Mo's body will be kept in the government office for a while. Madam, please go home and wait for news. Don't make trouble here, or we will be rude to you!"
"How else do you want to be rude to me? Kill me?"
Ning completely lost her mind and wanted to pounce on him to continue causing trouble, but her arm was suddenly pulled, and then a familiar and soft voice came: "Second Aunt, don't do this."
This voice sounds very much like her Wan'er.
Ning suddenly turned around and saw Shen Qingchi's thin little face.
It's not Wan'er. Wan'er is still in prison. It's cold and damp, and there are rats, insects and ants in the prison. She can't leave Wan'er here. She wants to take Wan'er home.
Ning wanted to shake off Shen Qingchi's hand and continue to rush in, but Shen Qingchi hugged her first and whispered in her ear: "Second aunt, believe me, I will help you."
Shen Qingchi was about the same height as Mo Yunwan, and had the same fragrance as Mo Yunwan. Ning was shocked and finally burst into tears.
After she had cried enough, Shen Qingchi took her to the carriage and carefully wiped away her tears.
Ning's head ached from crying, but she regained some of her rationality. She looked at Shen Qingchi warily, "Now everyone knows that Wan'er murdered your mother, and you just said you wanted to help me. Aren't you afraid that your mother will curse you for being unfilial in her grave?"
Upon hearing about Mrs. Mo's death, Shen Qingchi didn't feel sad at all. Instead, he curled his lips and said self-deprecatingly, "When mother was alive, she often scolded me for being unfilial. Besides, cousin Wan'er is dead now. If there is any grudge, mother can go to cousin Wan'er and make it clear. I can't even disown my grandmother and uncle because of mother, can I?"
Shen Qingchi's tone was quite cold. Ning frowned and wanted to say something, but Shen Qingchi spoke first, "I came to find my second aunt because we have a common enemy. Doesn't my second aunt want to kill Cao Chunxi?"
Ning swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue, and a light appeared in her bloodshot eyes.
She must fulfill Wan'er's last wish!
