Chapter 175 Lu Wanyi's Death
"Chao Chao's birthday is on the same day as Lu Jingyao's?" the old lady suddenly asked.
Xu was stunned: "Yes."
“Every morning is born, when the first rays of the sun appear.”
"Lu Jingyao was born in the afternoon. They were both born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but at different times." It's really ironic.
"The old lady of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery often said that Lu Jingyao had a noble destiny and would be extremely valuable in the future. Chaochao was born on the same day as Lu Jingyao, so why wasn't it Chaochao?" the old lady asked seriously.
Xu's eyes widened slightly.
"Besides, your life has been getting better since Chao Chao was born."
"You saw through Lu Yuanze, divorced him, and even took away his three sons and one daughter. The paralyzed Yanshu stood up again and passed the imperial examination."
"The crooked Yuanxiao, who was raised crookedly, studied hard every day."
"Zheng Yue also successfully got rid of Su Zhiqing and became motivated and sober."
"And what about Chao Chao? His Majesty recognized her as Princess Zhaoyang and granted her a title, a favor unique to Northern Zhao. Even the hostage and the fourth prince were raised by Chao Chao's side."
"Who is the most priceless one?" The more the old lady thought about it, the more she felt that she had guessed it right.
"Oh, you and Pei were pregnant at the same time. Pei happened to be by her side. Did she have a preconceived idea and misunderstand?" The old lady revealed the truth.
Even Xu looked as if she had been struck by lightning.
"It seems... what mother said makes sense." What Xu didn't say was that they could eavesdrop on Chaochao's thoughts and that Chaochao possessed extraordinary abilities.
The old lady smiled happily.
"Well, well, well, the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion lost more than it gained. The real nobleman is not even on the family tree."
The old lady clapped her hands and laughed.
Xu even laughed out loud. Oh my God, Lu Yuanze was going to be angry to death.
The children are not your biological children, and the noble person you are thinking of has made a mistake!
She really looked forward to the day when Lu Yuanze knew the truth.
Lunch.
"Chao Chao, you had a stomachache last night, so you are not allowed to eat meat today. Eat more vegetables..." Xu held Chao Chao to her side.
The table was filled with delicious food, and Lu Chaochao wiped his saliva.
"It must be very unpalatable, right?" He glanced at the table secretly.
“It looks unpalatable…”
"Well, it looks like a good time..."
"Give me a taste?"
"I don't really want to eat it. In fact, Wo eats it often..."
"Woo woo woo, actually Wo is really good at pretending, leave some for me?" Lu Chaochao kept chattering.
Tears of shame flowed from my eyes.
"Look how greedy the child is. She's become sick and out of her mind!" The old lady personally picked up a piece of honey quail for her.
Lu Chaochao swallowed and said, "Thank you, grandma."
"May grandma live a hundred years and be blessed with great fortune and happiness."
Xu looked at her in surprise. She actually learned to use words just for the sake of eating?
Lu Chaochao ate the quail with great care and pinched the flesh around her waist.
My belly is fat and my clothes are too small.
After lunch, Lu Chaochao took a short nap.
Xu taught Cen a lot of parenting tips, and they had a lot of fun together.
It was not until the evening that Xu got on the carriage.
Deng Zhi suddenly reported: "Madam, Lu Wanyi is in trouble!"
"Lu Wanyi collapsed outside the Loyalty and Bravery Marquis's Mansion, covered in wounds, and said he was dying."
At this moment the old lady was crying and making a fuss.
Xu frowned slightly and said, "Let's go and take a look."
She couldn't tell how she felt.
She raised Lu Wanyi herself and treated her as her own daughter. She had devoted her efforts and energy, but Lu Wanyi trampled on her sincerity.
She had known for a long time that Lu Yuanze had a mistress.
Even when Pei gave birth, she was there in person.
She laughed at her own stupidity, yet felt at ease enjoying her own care.
Even the old woman who tried to drown Chao Chao when he was born was arranged by Lu Wanyi himself.
Xu just wanted to see her suffer the consequences of her own actions.
When the carriage reached the residence of Marquis Zhongyong, it was blocked by onlookers.
Lu Wanyi's clothes were soaked in blood, his face looked old and scary, and his exposed wrists were covered with scars.
The old lady cried and hugged her: "Wanyi, Wanyi, please hold on a little longer."
"The doctor will be here soon. My dear Wan Yi, you damned Gu Ling, how dare you torture my daughter!"
The old lady tremblingly lifted her collar and saw the scars, both new and old, which were so mottled that she burst into tears on the spot.
"Why hasn't the doctor come yet?"
"Pei Jiaojiao, go find a doctor quickly!" the old lady cried heartbreakingly.
Lu Wanyi was covered in wounds, and she didn't even dare to move.
There have been a lot of things going on in the mansion this year, and she had long forgotten that her daughter had not returned to her parents' home for a long time.
"You personally asked for this number one scholar. How could he treat you like this?" At this moment, the old lady suddenly remembered Xu's obstruction.
I regret it.
The doctor arrived in a hurry, and Lu Wanyi's face was swollen like a pig, and even his original appearance could not be seen.
After taking her pulse, the doctor checked the injuries on her body.
He shook his head gently and said: "This lady is seriously injured, and has many old injuries. This time her lungs are injured. I'm afraid... no medicine can cure her." The doctor sighed.
"Madam struggled to hold on and crawled back to the Marquis' Mansion, but her pulse had already shown signs of exhaustion."
As expected.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Wanyi vomited mouthfuls of blood.
Blood gushed out of her mouth, and the old lady was so frightened that she trembled all over: "Please come back, my lord! Please come back, my lord!"
The old lady wailed loudly, "Oh, my goodness!"
Lu Wanyi gushed out blood: "I...I...was wrong."
"Sister-in-law, I know I am wrong. Please help me."
She looked in Xu's direction, tears of regret in her eyes.
She was wrong, she was really wrong.
At this moment, she thought of her childhood.
When others laughed at her mother's old age, she hid in a small dark room and refused to come out, nor did she want to call the old lady "mother".
Only Xu stood outside the door without eating a single grain of rice. He coaxed her with soft words, begged her to open the door, and held her in his arms.
Whispered: If you don’t mind, you can secretly call me mother.
Why is she so stupid?
Why did he help Pei hide it from her? Why did he help Pei harm her? Even, he assaulted her newborn daughter while she was giving birth?
Lu Wanyi slowly closed his eyes.
His hands drooped limply on the old lady.
The old lady cried like crazy. When Lu Yuanze rushed back home, Lu Wanyi had already died.
Lu Yuanze's heart seemed to have been hit hard, and he said with a cold face: "I will go to the palace to see the emperor immediately! I must make Gu Ling give an explanation to the Marquis' Mansion!"
The crowd was shocked.
No one expected that the legitimate daughter of a marquis's family would be tortured for two years and beaten to death.
What is even more unexpected is that the gentle and refined Gu Ling actually has such a brutal side.
Xu let down the curtain, her heart calm.
Does she sympathize?
No.
If she hadn't eavesdropped on Chao Chao's thoughts, she and her children would have died tragically.
His ending was even more miserable and desperate than Lu Wanyi's.
Lu Yuanze, your retribution may be late, but it has come!
