Chapter 1666: Chapter 1666: It Wasn’t Her Doing

Gu Ya’s eyes fixed on Mrs. An, and he imdiately asked, “The dicine is poisoned, mother, did you know?” Gu Ya’s voice wasn’t loud, yet it carried an imposing authority that sent chills down one’s spine.

“Wha…what? The dicine is poisoned?” Mrs. An was instantly dumbfounded, utterly incredulous. The dicine she gave Mrs. Chu was clearly for treating coughs, how could it possibly be poison?

Mrs. Chu stepped forward, “Mother, the dicine you gave today was deadly poisonous, it nearly cost Little Tiangua her life. Mother, quickly tell us, what’s going on with the dicine you gave ?”

Mrs. An was at a loss for words, first in disbelief, then she shook her head repeatedly, “No no no, no, that’s impossible, impossible, I didn’t, I didn’t poison Little Tiangua.” After hurriedly denying it, anxious for Little Tiangua, Mrs. An imdiately grabbed Mrs. Chu with a tense expression and asked, “Fifth daughter-in-law, where’s Little Tiangua? Is Little Tiangua okay?” Mrs. An was so worried about Little Tiangua that her voice trembled. Little Tiangua was the lifeblood of her and the Gu Family.

If sothing were to happen to Little Tiangua, wouldn’t the marriage alliance with Wang Residence fall through? Mrs. An was counting on Little Tiangua to bring prosperity and wealth to the Gu Family, and if anything happened to Little Tiangua, Mrs. An’s hopes would be dashed.

No!

Absolutely not!

She mustn’t let anything happen to Little Tiangua; it had taken so many years for the Gu Family to finally produce a Princely Heir. Such a trendous honor, how could she let it slip away like this?

“Mother, mother, don’t worry, Little Tiangua is fine. She didn’t consu that dicine, fortunately, third sister-in-law noticed sothing was off and didn’t feed it to Little Tiangua.” Mrs. Chu, seeing that Mrs. An was so frightened, quickly tried to reassure her.

Upon learning that Little Tiangua was fine, Mrs. An’s heart finally settled, “It’s good she’s fine, it’s good she’s fine.” Mrs. An patted her chest repeatedly in relief, and gratefully repeated, “Ancestral blessings, ancestral blessings, I must properly pay respects to the ancestors of the Gu Family later.” In Mrs. An’s view, the fact that Little Tiangua was unhard this ti was entirely due to the protection of the Gu Family’s ancestors.

Su Yunjin stood by observing Mrs. An’s reactions. Seeing that Mrs. An didn’t at all seem like soone who would poison Little Tiangua, could it be that there was indeed another story behind the poisoning?

While Su Yunjin was contemplating, Gu Ya approached Mrs. An and asked, “Mother, I ask you, did you let anyone else handle that dicine?”

“No, I always stayed with the dicine while it was cooking, and no one touched it midway.” Mrs. An hadn’t stepped out for a mont. After finishing the dicine, Mrs. An had put it into a pre-prepared porcelain bottle. Then, Mrs. An handed the bottle directly to Mrs. Chu. Turning to Mrs. Chu, Mrs. An asked, “Fifth daughter-in-law, did you let anyone handle it?”

Mrs. Chu shook her head resolutely, “Mother, after you gave the dicine, I went straight to the third sister-in-law’s place, and no one touched the dicine bottle.” Both Mrs. Chu and Mrs. An claid that no one else touched the dicine in the porcelain bottle. Su Yunjin beca suspicious of eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, and speculated, “Could it be that the dicine was tampered with by the eldest sister-in-law?” Mrs. Zhang had done such things before, so perhaps she was responsible this ti too.

“Impossible, it couldn’t have been your eldest sister-in-law.” Mrs. An imdiately rejected Su Yunjin’s speculation, and Mrs. Chu, for once, defended Mrs. Zhang, “Third sister-in-law, this matter is unlikely to have been done by the eldest sister-in-law. She hasn’t been ho in recent days, and even eldest brother has gone back to their parental ho with her.”

Mrs. Zhang simply hadn’t been at the Gu Family, leaving no opportunity to poison.
