85 The Speculation Is Correct

No wonder when she told the old master that the widow’s treatment had ended, he would shout out in surprise. No wonder he would rush over at noon every time. She had thought that the old master was deeply in love with her and had come to see her. Now she knew that he had come to see the widow!

It was no wonder that every time he rushed over excitedly, he would not even accompany her for lunch and would leave in a hurry. It turned out that it was because the widow had left that he had lost interest.

The more Liu Wangshi thought about it, the more convinced she was. All the strange things that she had thought of as excuses before, she could now link them all together.

At this moment, she felt as if her heart was being boiled in hot oil and her body was being burned by a raging fire. Her heart was torn and riddled with holes, and she really wanted to pounce on Mo Ruyue and scratch her face.

No wonder she felt uncomfortable from the first time she saw this widow. Looking at her cold and reserved appearance, how could a wild woman like her pretend to be pure and noble? What kind of airs did she put on? She even dared to order her around and pick at her. Could it be that at that time, she had already seduced the old master with her beauty and thought that she could enter the residence in the future and then compete with her?

Liu Wangshi had completely forgotten that Mo Ruyue had been avoiding the county magistrate. If she really wanted to seduce him, she could’ve delayed the treatment process and waited until the county magistrate came, then she could’ve flirted with him.

However, at this moment, Liu Wangshi had no rationality to speak of. Even if she had thought of this, she would only think that Mo Ruyue was just playing hard to get. She didn’t even think about whether her husband, who had always been “deeply in love,” had done anything wrong.

“Madam, do you still want me to go and get Chun Yu’s indenture?”

Even though Mei Xiang was outside the room, she had clearly heard everything that had just been said, and it had been a heart-stirring one. She could more or less guess what the magistrate was thinking, but she didn’t dare to believe it.

After that, only Chun Yu’s pleas for mercy could be heard in the room. Madam’s sudden silence made her a little scared, and she could not help but ask.

Liu Wangshi came back to her senses. Now that she had put all the blame on Mo Ruyue, she naturally didn’t dare to easily meet her eyes.

The widow seemed to have very sharp senses. She was afraid that she would not be able to hide it and the widow would see through her.

Liu Wangshi was naturally not willing to suffer such a huge loss. Even if the old master had taken a fancy to this widow, he would still use all sorts of methods to take her in. Before that, she would have to plan properly and make this slut suffer a little. She would know that it was not easy to enter their family.

Moreover, this widow would be a mistress in the future, and she would have to be at her beck and call. The days of suffering for her were still ahead, so she would take it as interest now!

As Chen Wangshi thought about this, she said to the people outside, “Yes, why not? Who would dare to leave things that betray their master at home!”

“No, no! Madam, didn’t you say that as long as this servant confesses, you’ll spare this servant!”

Chun Yu was dumbfounded. She had never thought that even after she had told the truth, Liu Wangshi would still not let her go.

“Spare you? You’ve caused this Madam to suffer for a few more days. Do you see how many pieces of skin are still intact on my body? How could I possibly let you off!”

Liu Wangshi said through gritted teeth. She was clearly looking at Chun Yu as she spoke, but she treated the person in front of her as Mo Ruyue. Right now, she couldn’t touch that evil widow and still needed her to cure her illness. So she would remember this debt first and endure this anger first!

She told herself that she must restrain herself. A little impatience would spoil a big plan. Wouldn’t it be good to take revenge on her slowly in the future? Why was she in a hurry?

“Madam, don’t forget about the medicine herbs.”

Mo Ruyue reminded her at the right time. Liu Wangshi was currently in a fit of anger, and if she sold her off in a hurry, she didn’t know where to go to find the medicinal herbs.

“Yes, Lady Qin’s reminder is right.”

Liu Wangshi almost dug her nails into her palm to stop herself from screaming. Instead, she followed Mo Ruyue’s wishes and forced Chun Yu to ask, “Speak! Where are the herbs? Do you still have any medicinal powder in your hand that hasn’t been used?”

Chun Yu shook her head like a rattle-drum. Her voice was choked with sobs as she said, “The herbs are buried in the flower bed. Constable Liao gave me a packet of powder and said that I only needed to put it in the liquid used in the medicinal bath. The dosage was only enough for two or three times, and there was no residue left.”

“Madam, this servant does not dare to lie. Every word is true. I beg you to spare me and not sell this servant!”

After Liu Wangshi obtained the information she wanted to know from Chun Yu, she no longer paid any attention to her pleas. At this moment, Mei Xiang had also returned to the main house with Chun Yu’s indenture. She walked around the screen to the side of the bed.

“Madam, Mei Xiang’s indenture is here.”

Liu Wangshi took the indenture and said to Mei Xiang, “Ask Xiao Tao to find a human slave, the sooner the better. Then, go to the flower bed and bring the medicinal herbs buried inside to Lady Qin, so she can concoct the antidote as soon as possible.

As she spoke, Chun Yu’s wailing grew louder and louder, angering Liu Wangshi. She threw the pillow behind her and the small table on the bed to the ground and roared, “Cry, keep crying! If you continue to cry, I’ll sell you to the lowest brothel and make you sleep with a filthy beggar every day. I’ll make you cry!”

Chun Yu’s eyes rolled back in shock at her words, and she actually fainted.

Mo Ruyue looked on coldly. She didn’t want to judge whether Liu Wangshi was right or wrong. Whether it was in her previous life or this life, such tragedies had never been rare. When a person had absolute control over another person’s life and death, she would only see the other party as an ant and not a living person.

She only wanted to quickly concoct the antidote and end this ill-fated relationship with the county magistrate’s family. However, since the county magistrate had tricked her here, he probably wouldn’t let her leave so easily. There would probably be another storm soon.

Mo Ruyue had clearly foreseen what was going to happen soon, but she didn’t expect it to happen so quickly. Even though she was prepared, she still couldn’t avoid it.

Although Chun Yu had struggled and cried for a long time, she was eventually dragged away by the human trafficker.

Mo Ruyue didn’t sympathize with her at all. Although she was forced by Constable Liao to do this, it was still a crime to betray her master. Just based on this point alone, it wasn’t an injustice to be dealt with by Liu Wangshi.

Very quickly, Xiao Tao dug out a lot of herbal herbs from the flower bed. Although she couldn’t tell if the herbal herbs were from a day or a few days ago, Mo Ruyue could easily tell.

The medicinal herbs proved her previous speculation correct. The so-called added medicinal powder was the grinding of two medicinal herbs that were incompatible with each other into powder and adding it. This would cause a rejection reaction, which would lead to a large area of Liu Wangshi’s skin allergy.
