After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me Chapter 439: Still pleading for Her
She scread and crawled up from the ground, rushing towards Gu Ying. In the blink of an eye, Ye Zhuojiang swept her legs and kicked her to the ground.
Shen Ruxu covered her chest and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Ye Zhuojiang was still blocking Gu Ying, asking cordially, "Ying, are you alright? How was uncle's kick? Was it cool? Was it handso?"
"How could you be so careless? This woman is a poisonous snake. Who knows when she will crawl up and bite you. You'd better stay away from her."
Zhuojiang chatted in her ear. Gu Ying smiled slightly, "Zhuojiang is really impressive."
Ye Zhuojiang was a little embarrassed. "Then I'll go see your mother first. Co over later."
Gu Ying nodded. "Okay."
The guards of the Duke's residence ca up. They were all experts in dealing with shrews. They first broke Shen Ruxu's arm bones, then tied her up and carried her.
Gu Ying walked to her and smiled faintly, "Finally tasted the feeling of being silenced and falling to hell forever. How is it?"
Shen Ruxu's face was twisted in pain. She turned her head and sneered through gritted teeth, "I will co back to kill you."
Gu Ying chuckled softly, "Tell where Jiang Yin is, and I'll consider letting you off."
Shen Ruxu said, "You wish."
Gu Ying leisurely looked at her wretched little face, "You don't have to say it now, but after tonight, it will be beyond your control."
At first, Shen Ruxu didn't understand Gu Ying's words.
It wasn't until she was tortured in the private prison of the Duke's residence that she understood why Gu Ying was so indifferent. It turned out that the Prince's people had been guarding her all along.
She knew about her plan.
She even gave her a push in secret.
She could have killed her directly, but she didn't. She went through so much trouble to make sure Mrs. Lin would completely lose hope in her and stop pleading for her.
From the mont she poisoned Mrs. Lin's food, she had completely lost Mrs. Lin's protection.
She had no mother anymore...
No one in this world would be as kind to her as Mrs. Lin.
Shen Ruxu was heartbroken and full of regret, wishing she could spit blood!
After that, she was locked up in prison. The old case was also brought up.
The yan extradited her to the Ministry of Justice, which directly sentenced her to death.
Since then, she had been trapped in prison, unable to live or die.
...
Gu Ying kept vigil at Mrs. Lin's bedside for a day and night.
On the second day in the evening, Mrs. Lin finally woke up slowly.
There was a spittoon, a silver basin, towels, etc. beside the bed. The room was filled with a strong sll of dicine and was very quiet. Occasionally one could hear the sound of the willow leaves gently brushed by the breeze outside the window.
The room was stuffy with a large piece of ice in the center.
A refreshing coolness emanated from the ice.
Seeing Mrs. Lin open her eyes, Gu Ying quickly asked Yinlan to bring over the warm dicinal soup.
She held it in her bare palm, stirred it with a spoon for a while, and felt that the temperature was right before scooping up a spoonful and bringing it to Mrs. Lin's lips. "You're finally awake. Mother, take your dicine first."
Mrs. Lin leaned against the gold silk pillow and slowly drank a sip, then raised her wet long lashes to look at the person beside her, and said guiltily, "Ying, why are you taking care of when you're pregnant? Let the maids do it."
Gu Ying said, "It's fine, I'm not tired."
Mrs. Lin was silent for a while, with a pain in her heart.
Seeing her red eyes and tears brimming in her eyes, Gu Ying sighed, "Mother is not going to speak for Miss Shen anymore, is she?"
Tears slid down Mrs. Lin's eyes as her heart seed to be cruelly squeezed.
"I just didn't expect..."
Gu Ying persuaded her for fear that she would overthink, "What's done is done. Mother should treat her as if she never had this adopted daughter from now on. In the future, there is still and the Prince who will be filial to you. You won't miss her. What's more, Niangbao will be born in a month or two. Let little Niangbao accompany you every day then."
Hearing this, Mrs. Lin's tears flowed more, feeling more sad and heartbroken.
The feelings she had for Shen Ruxu were perhaps deeper than those for Du. She never imagined that this child would give her life-threatening poison.
Thinking of this, she suddenly rembered and looked at Gu Ying in astonishnt, "How did Lord Ye cure the poison of the beak of the Mandarin duck that seals the throat on sight of blood?"
Gu Ying looked calm and naturally fed the dicine into Mrs. Lin's mouth, "It's true that Yinlan got the dicine in advance, so I had Zhuojiang check the properties and reduce the toxicity, and prepared the antidote, before letting Mother take it."
Mrs. Lin swallowed the soup dumbfoundedly, "So..."
Her daughter-in-law clearly knew soone wanted to poison her, but not only didn't stop her, but also helped reduce the toxicity and deliberately watched Shen Ruxu put it in her candied fruit?
Gu Ying said embarrassedly, "So Shen Ruxu had wanted to kill Mother for more than a day or two. Wanting to fra was also her preditated plan. If I didn't do this, would Mother believe ? I was afraid that later Shen Ruxu would quibble and Mother would be soft-hearted again."
If she hadn't seen through Shen Ruxu's plot early on, I'm afraid she would have made her move after the Prince ca back.
She would have created the illusion that she poisoned her mother-in-law, in order to alienate her relationship with the Prince.
Mrs. Lin would have died, and the Prince would have misunderstood.
She would have lost her reputation.
Mrs. Lin's throat tightened. She also felt that she had no right to bla Gu Ying. "Then... what about her now?"
Gu Ying smiled slightly, "Tortured and sentenced by Father."
Mrs. Lin felt sour and unbearable in her heart with red eyes.
Just as Gu Ying thought she was going to speak for Shen Ruxu again, she suddenly heard her say bitterly, "She killed her husband and mother-in-law before. I thought she was bullied by her husband's family and had a hard ti, so I felt sorry for her and begged Du to cover it up. Now that I think about it, her nature is so vicious. With two lives in her hands, today she deserved it. Let the yan sentence her. From today onwards, I will never sympathize with or love her again. She is no longer my daughter!"
Mrs. Lin's resolute appearance was rather adorably different.
Gu Ying breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Mother should have done so earlier. She has always coveted the Prince with an impure mind and insatiable greed. Keeping such a person in the residence will sooner or later bring great trouble to the Prince."
Mrs. Lin said worriedly, "What about now? Will it bring trouble to Du now?"
Gu Ying smiled and said, "It won't."
Mrs. Lin spat, "That's good. It's all my fault for being deceived by her for so many years."
Gu Ying smiled, "How can Mother bla herself? Bla only her for acting too well."
Mrs. Lin quickly said, "Yes, bla her, not ."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other and smiled, with a harmonious atmosphere.
Mrs. Lin sighed slightly and held Gu Ying's cold little hand gently, "Ying, you don't bla Mother for her coldness towards you before, do you? Mother was just confused by that wooden plaque and misled by Shen Ruxu... I an Ruxu's whispers, so she treated you like that..."
