If he had found Yuan Shutong at that time, she would not have suffered so much, and perhaps the things that happened later would not have happened.
After being questioned by Lin Yuelan, Lu Zi You said guiltily,” When I heard that Tong ‘er got married and had children, I was stunned. I felt like I had nothing to live for in this world. Therefore, I drank all day to drown his sorrows and got drunk. I never thought of looking for Tong ‘er.”
Lin Yuelan had an expression as if she had expected it.
She knew it. A man who could casually take out a Golden Gu Worm must have an extraordinary status. If he went to the Duke’s estate to look for Yuan Shutong and saw her situation, he would probably drag her out of the Duke’s estate without caring about Yuan Shutongs opposition.
Lu Zi You continued,” Two months later when 1 was half-drunk on the street,
I suddenly heard a woman’s voice passing by. She said, Congratulations, Miss. You’re about to marry into the Duke’s Public House.”
“Immediately after, I heard another woman’s cold laugh. Hmph, that Yuan Shutong is simply courting death by fighting with me! Then, she asked, Has everything been arranged? The woman said Everything has been arranged. We’ll wait for Yuan Shutong to give birth. At that time, we’ll give her a massive haemorrhage and cause her to die in an accident. In that case, the Eldest Lady’s marriage into the Duke’s Public House is already settled.
“When I heard their conversation, I immediately understood that the Yuan Shutong they were talking about must be Tong ‘er. I realized that Tong ‘er was in danger.”
“However, you are still too late!” Lin Yuelan said sharply.
Lu Zi You said guiltily,” That’s right. I rushed to the capital and found out about the situation in the Duke’s estate, but it was already too late. At this moment, the Duke’s estate had already announced to the public that the young madam of the Duke’s estate had died during childbirth, and her son, who had just been born, had become a jinx to his mother. It was also because of an old monk who had passed by that he had been condemned to be a jinx.
At that time, I couldn’t care less about Tong’ er’s child. All I wanted was to find Tong er because only I knew that Tong ‘er was not dead yet.
“The Golden Silkworm Gu had already saved Tong ‘er once. If it were used again, its effect would be greatly reduced. It could only protect a trace of Tong ‘er r s aura and let her pretend to be dead for seven days. Within these seven days, I had to find her and give her an antidote made from the Golden Silkworm Gu’ s excrement and saliva. Otherwise, the fake death would become real death.
“Later, I searched around and finally found the tomb where Tong ‘er was buried beside the Jiang family’s ancestral grave. I dug up the grave and replaced it with a woman’s corpse that was similar in size to Tong er.”
Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan looked at each other. Then, Lin Yuelan chuckled and said,” Big Brother Nan, it looks like it’s the skeleton we buried!”
Jiang Zhennan nodded.” It should be!” Back then, the skeleton was dug out from the side of the Jiang family’s ancestral grave.
Hearing their conversation, Lu Zi You instantly understood what they meant.
He said,” I ordered my subordinates to find that skeleton. Although she had nothing to do with you, she had taken your mother’s place and laid beside the Jiang family’s ancestral grave. She had taken Tong ‘ers place and endured the humiliation that the Jiang family had brought to her. Therefore, I hope that you can let that woman bear your incense.”
Jiang Zhennan said,” Yes, don’t worry. I know!”
Lu Ziyou nodded and said,” Because of that labour, although Tong ‘er r s life was saved, her body is very weak. She can’t stop taking medicine, We came here to look for the godly doctor, but we found out that you’re Tong ‘er r s son. Tong ‘er didn’t want to disturb your peaceful life, but I really couldn’t bear to see her suffer. Every day, she looked in the direction of the Defender General’s Estate with pain in her eyes. She bitterly endured the pain of missing her son, and there was even a hint of hope in her eyes. Therefore, I decided to fulfil Tong ‘er’ s her wish and let her and her son reunite. Therefore, I used Tong ‘er r s name to ask you out.”
Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were speechless.
They didn’t expect this to happen.
Yuan Shutong thought that the two of them were angry, so she quickly explained,” Don’t blame him. Brother Zi You did everything for me. Please don’t blame him, okay?”
Yuan Shutong thought that Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were angry because Lu Zi You had used her name, so she tried to explain herself urgently..
