Chapter 353: Chapter 188: The Next Ga (Third Update)
“Why…” Mada Ling laughed, “Of course it’s because of you, my lord…”
From the mont you caught when I fell from the attic, I wanted to marry you.
But why are you my brother-in-law?
I saw my sister with you, and was so jealous that I was going mad!
My sister is dead.
My sister treated well when she was alive.
...
But I am not sad, not at all.
Because I know, my chance has co.
…
Lord Gu had Mada Ling taken away.
Though Mada Ling was unforgivable, firstly, she was the daughter of the Ling family, and secondly, the three sons still did not know Mada Ling’s sins. If they hastily punished her, it might lead to misunderstandings deepening if their sons refuse to believe and insist on thinking that Yao was the one who did sothing wrong.
Lord Gu suddenly felt weary.
He has not heard much about rumors concerning the Yao family, mainly because no one dared to say such things in front of him, and also because Yao never complained to him. Whenever he happened to hear servants gossiping, he would dismiss them imdiately.
“My lord, how should we deal with these servants?” asked Huang Zhong.
Lord Gu replied impatiently, “Just a few servants! Do you have to always consult for such things?”
“Yes, yes!”
Ah, being the target of his frustration, it’s really pitiful!
Huang Zhong punished those servants who were to be punished and sold those who were to be sold. In any case, none of them was allowed to step into the Marquis Residence again.
“My lord,” said Huang Zhong, “It’s getting late. You should go and rest.”
Without realizing it, it was already midnight.
Yao had returned to the courtyard long ago.
The old Lady Gu was so furious that she had a headache. After taking her dicine, she also rested.
Lord Gu was utterly worn out, but he did not go to rest. Instead, he went to the courtyard of Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin.
Gu Chengfeng had just co back after completing a task and looked worn out. His pale face perfectly matched the impression of being grouchy from being woken up in the middle of the night.
Lord Gu said, “Call your eldest brother.”
His aura felt off.
The two brothers exchanged looks, not understanding what was going on with their father.
Gu Chenglin said, “The eldest brother has gone to the military camp.”
Lord Gu spoke tiredly, “That’s fine, I’ll tell the two of you first.”
Lord Gu didn’t ntion the matter of Mada Ling having an affair. Firstly, it was a disgrace, and secondly, it was not appropriate to bring it up in front of the children.
He only ntioned Mada Ling’s embezzlent of silver, bribing the servants to cause trouble and sow discord.
The two brothers were dumbfounded.
Little Mada Ling went early, and when Mada Ling entered the mansion, the two brothers were still dependent on their mother. They received warmth from Mada Ling, who was like a second mother to them in their hearts.
Gu Chenglin sprung to his feet from the chair, “I don’t believe it! Mada Ling wouldn’t do such a thing! It must be Yao! It must be that an woman Yao who slandered Mada Ling!”
“Who did you say is a an woman?” Lord Gu also stood up coldly!
This ti, Gu Chengfeng stepped in front of his brother.
He would not allow Mada Ling to be wronged, nor would he allow his father to punish his brother for false cris!
For the first ti, Lord Gu felt a different aura from his second son, but he didn’t think too much about it. His fists made a ringing sound, “The evidence is conclusive, those servants are still being punished in the stables. If you don’t believe it, go ask them yourself!”
Gu Chenglin said, “They have all been bought by Yao! Yao tells them what to say, and they say it! I don’t believe their words! I want to see Mada Ling! I want to ask her personally! I only trust her!”
Lord Gu was furious, “Unfilial son!”
Gu Chenglin didn’t care about him. In Gu Chenglin’s heart, Mada Ling was much more important than his own father!
When he was sick, it was Mada Ling who looked after him day and night!
When he missed his mother, it was Mada Ling who held him up all night!
When he was beaten by his father indiscriminately, it was Mada Ling who comforted him, coaxed him, and made delicious food for him!
Mada Ling is the one who treats him the best in this world apart from his own mother!
He only needs Mada Ling!
Gu Chenglin rushed towards Mada Ling’s courtyard.
Gu Chengfeng was also worried about Mada Ling’s situation and followed him.
“Mada Ling!” Gu Chenglin arrived outside her courtyard.
The guard blocked him, “Third young master, you cannot go in!”
“Out of the way!”
Gu Chenglin rudely pushed the door guard.
However, he couldn’t push him away.
Gu Chengfeng ca over and flicked his fingers. The guard only felt his knees buckled as if struck by sothing. Taking advantage of the situation, Gu Chenglin pushed the guard aside, and together with Gu Chengfeng, they entered the courtyard.
“Mada Ling! Mada Ling!” Gu Chenglin rushed towards Mada Ling’s room.
The room was quiet. There were no lights, only a thin shard of moonlight shone in from outside.
“Mada Ling?” Gu Chenglin spoke softly.
Mada Ling was sitting at her dressing table with her hair loose, staring blankly at the bronze mirror.
She seed to have aged overnight, no longer the youthful beauty she was.
“Mada Ling…” Gu Chenglin ca behind Mada Ling.
Mada Ling was very quiet.
But her swollen eyes clearly indicated that she had been crying hard, and there were traces of blood at the corners of her mouth.
Feeling as though his heart was being torn apart, Gu Chenglin knelt on one knee and looked up at Mada Ling sorrowfully, “Mada Ling? Did our father beat you? He’s such a jerk! I’ll never talk to him again! I don’t need him anymore!”
Mada Ling’s eyes reddened and welled up with tears. She reached out a hand to touch Gu Chenglin’s cheek, “Silly boy.”
Gu Chenglin pressed his cheek into her hand, promising solemnly, “They said you frad Yao, and they even fabricated evidence to tarnish you! Mada Ling, don’t worry, I won’t be fooled! Father has been deceived by that fox spirit, I will find a way to clear your na!”
Mada Ling said, “Didn’t you think she was too stupid to fra anyone?”
Gu Chenglin huffed, “That was in the past! After I saw her secretly eting soone, and was duped into empty-handedly trying to catch them, I knew she was not simple! She is not a good person! Mada Ling, if you can’t stay in this mansion, I won’t either! I will take you away! I will take you away from the Marquis Residence!”
Mada Ling gave a bitter smile, “You are the son of the Marquis, the Marquis won’t let you leave, and you will be caught and brought back.”
Gu Chenglin choked up, but quickly said, “He, he can’t catch ! We can go to the Ling family and hide! My grandmother will definitely stand up for !”
She will stand up for you, but she won’t stand up for .
My worth, has been depleted the mont you all grew up.
Looking at him through her tears, Mada Ling choked up, “Let Mada Ling hug you one more ti.”
Gu Chenglin nodded, circled his arms around Mada Ling’s waist, and buried his head in her bosom.
Suddenly, he felt a pain in his chest.
Everything happened too quickly. Gu Chengfeng did not have ti to react, and Mada Ling’s dagger was already plunged into Gu Chenglin’s chest!
Gu Chenglin looked down at the dagger in his chest incredulously and raised his head, “Mad-, Mada-“
