The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Chapter 2640: Chapter 124: Turns Out the Wrong Thing Was Planted

"Hehe... What if it was me?" Concubine Sun sneered coldly, "Who’s letting him be so useless? I have just one daughter who grew up oppressed, and now that she finally has a wish, he can’t even fulfill such a small desire. It’s too disappointing."

"Hmph, if he can’t fulfill it, then I will."

Li Luru sighed, this Concubine Sun really would do anything to prevent her from getting married.

Yang Aoshuang, of course, understood the key point. Third is supposed to get married next month, but now with this incident, the wedding will definitely be postponed. Whether the girl is still willing to marry is another matter.

"Someone, take this wretched woman away." Daring to harm her children, she could not be blamed for her cruelty, "Remember to nail the windows and doors shut, don’t let her escape. Daring to harm the Old Master; when he is buried, sacrifice her alive to pave the way for him."

"Yes!" Nanny Yang took two people to drag Concubine Sun away, and Concubine Sun did not resist.

As for Li Mengru, she was dumbfounded. She hadn’t anticipated that the concubine would be so foolish as to carry the medicine packet on her person, and even admit it.

This is something that shouldn’t be admitted no matter what.

"No, something’s not right, you framed me!"

"Second Miss has gone mad, take her away and lock her up, don’t let her scare the mourners anymore."

"Yes!"

"Let go of me, let go of me..."

"Li Luru, don’t get too proud!!"

Li Luru expressed that she was really innocent.

"Alright, it’s already late today, everyone should go back." Yang Aoshuang said, headache-filled, "There are still many things to do tomorrow."

Too many things have happened today; not only was Yang Aoshuang exhausted, but even Li Luru was tired.

She took Xiaohong and left first. Her father’s death left her no time to grieve, as she had already begun searching the house and trying to find the culprit.

Having called him father for ten-plus years, he suddenly just passed away. She wasn’t cold-blooded and couldn’t feel nothing at all.

"Miss..."

Li Luru touched her eyes, "?"

"Miss, why do you think Concubine Sun put a packet of laxatives in your room instead? Shouldn’t it have been poison?"

This had puzzled her for a long time, and she couldn’t figure it out.

Li Luru had also pondered over this issue before, yet couldn’t come up with an answer. Thinking carefully now, perhaps the medicine packets got mixed up?

Indeed, it was as she thought; Concubine Sun, in the chaos, had put the wrong medicine packet.

"Miss, do you think Second Miss will just sit back and do nothing?"

Li Luru blinked and waved Xiaohong away.

Li Mengru certainly wouldn’t sit back and do nothing, considering it’s her own mother.

However, Li Luru underestimated Li Mengru, as she did intervene, and in a rather earth-shattering way.

Just past choushí, Li Mengru came to the firewood room where Concubine Sun was held, with a cloak draped over her shoulders.

Her maid went forward to give some money to the two guards, who then stepped aside.

"Are you foolish? What are you doing here at this time?" Concubine Sun was anxious as soon as she saw her enter.

"Who’s the fool here?" Li Mengru lowered her voice, "I thought you had put poison in that wretch’s room, but instead you put it on yourself."

"..." Speaking of this, Concubine Sun’s face turned ashen; she had accidentally mixed up the medicine packets in a panic. The two packets looked the same on the outside, and the colors were nearly identical. After placing one, she was supposed to discard the other, fearing Yang Aoshuang might mislead the truth, saying it was poison when it wasn’t.

But she hadn’t had the chance to throw it away before she encountered Nanny Yang after leaving Li Luru’s place.
