Gu Deyin was ill. When other people in the Xuanning Hou Mansion found out, they couldn't help running around to celebrate.

Mu from the third room has intensified his actions. Now he is just waiting for the news of Mr. Gu's death to come back. When the news of Gu Deyin's death due to excessive grief is released, the money will be secure.

Xu said cautiously, "We haven't succeeded yet, so we must proceed with caution."

"Sister-in-law, don't worry while I do the work."

Mu smiled confidently, she was not someone like her second sister-in-law Qiao who only knew how to make noises.

Ms. Xu still believed in her sister-in-law's words. The two families had always cooperated seamlessly and were much more lovable than the second-bedroom family.

"Uncle, is there still no progress in the case?"

Mu asked worriedly, if the eldest son couldn't keep the title, then everyone would have nothing to gain.

Recently, out of worries about this, she has asked her husband to go to the south of the Yangtze River secretly, hoping to win the favor of the master. If she succeeds in serving the dragon, she will not have to rely on the master's nose.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, hiding the thought that she had other plans.

Mrs. Xu didn't notice the twinkle in Mu's eyes and said calmly: "As soon as Sister Yu's marriage is over, the case will be closed. You don't have to worry about this."

"That's good."

After Mu received a positive answer, he did not stay in Dafang's territory for a long time and left directly.

She did not comment on Xu's selling her eldest daughter to save her husband, but was secretly wary of it.

This sister-in-law is far more cruel than she imagined, so she has to deal with it carefully.

Mrs. Xu personally sent her sister-in-law away. She felt quite contemptuous of her sister-in-law who loved to pretend. She obviously had deep desires but pretended to be indifferent.

Yep, it's not a good thing either.

Xu Huiyu's marriage was not made known to the whole family until the wedding day was approaching.

Mrs. Xu's face was gloomy. Mrs. Xu's cruelty was beyond her expectation. Sister Yu, who loved her so much, was willing to push her into the fire pit. She had underestimated her before.

"Old madam, do you need to stop this marriage? My aunt has written several times asking about it."

Although Mrs. Xu doesn't expect the Hou Mansion to be well, she doesn't expect the Hou Mansion to fall either. After all, her daughter still needs the backing of her natal family.

Rubbing her eyebrows, she said with a tired look, "We'll just wait and see."

When the confidant nanny on the side heard this, she knew that the old lady was not planning to intervene, and she couldn't help but feel worried.

The Hou Mansion has reached this point, and its failure has already appeared. It seems that she has to find a way out, otherwise it will be too late when the building is about to collapse.

Mrs. Xu didn't know what the servant was thinking. In her opinion, Xu's actions were understandable. She had to rescue the head of the family first before she could do anything else.

Ming took a sip of tea and was slightly startled when she heard the servant reported that Gu Deyin was ill, "What kind of disease does she have?"

"It's the change of season that makes me uncomfortable."

When she heard that this was her problem, Mrs. Xu didn't take it seriously. She just sighed, "She is so capable of making trouble. No matter how sick she is, if she just calms down, everyone's life will be easier."

When the servant heard this, he immediately knew that the old lady had given up on the second mistress, otherwise she would not have said such a thing, so he quickly chimed in with a few words to please the old lady.

Although Mrs. Xu did not go to visit, she still ordered someone to send some medicine to Lan Xinyuan.

Gu Deyin looked at the medicine sent by Mrs. Xu and said with an inexplicable expression, "Go to Kangpingyuan and thank the old lady for my concern."

Mrs. Xu is still so impeccable in her work, but her cool temper is exactly the same as that of the Xu family.

Xu Ningyu came to see her specially. Ever since he was beaten by Gu Deyin that day, he had not been in front of Gu Deyin for a while. "Yeah, who told you to do so many unjust things? Will God make you sick?"

Hearing these sarcastic words, Gu Deyin didn't look good on him, "Are you coming here to be scolded by me, or do you want to be beaten by me?"

She glanced in Xiu'er's direction, and Xiu'er stood in front.

Xu Ningyu fearfully jumped ten feet away from Gu Deyin, but still said angrily, "Why are you so insecure now?"

"Then I have to ask you. If you are not a human being, do you still expect me to be a human being?"

Gu Deyin's words directly poked his heart.

Xu Ningyu couldn't defeat Gu Deyin, so he could only soften up and said, "You and I are husband and wife, why should we speak so sharply?"

Gu Deyin laughed, "I have never seen such a shameless person!"

Xu Ningyu almost lost his expression after being scolded by her. After all, he had been scolded a lot, and he had adapted to it. Seeing Gu Deyin like this, even though he was a little haggard due to illness, he was still inexplicably attractive.

Ever since he discovered that Gu Deyin looked good that day, he started dreaming about her at night.

When Gu Deyin saw his distracted expression, she immediately grabbed the pillow and threw it at him with a frosty look on her face. What on earth was this damn scumbag thinking about?

"Get out, get out of here -" I felt sick when I saw it.

Xu Ningyu still wanted to insist on not leaving, but when he saw Liu Ruohe coming to visit her, his face darkened. He ignored Liu Ruohe's pitiful look and turned around to leave.

"I'm leaving now. I'll come to visit you next time."

Leaving behind a word, he left in a hurry.

Liu Ruohe rolled up the handkerchief bitterly, and Xu Ningyu repeatedly escaped from her control, which made her very unhappy.

Looking back at Gu Deyin, she said quietly, "You are a good trick, and you got him to come to you."

Gu Deyin sneered coldly, "Isn't he the food on your plate? Take it away quickly, I think it's dirty."

Her feelings for that damn scumbag had been exhausted in her previous life, and she was here to collect debts and take revenge in this life.

"Second brother and sister, are you deliberately choking me with your words? Are you very proud of knowing that he is ignoring me now?"

The resentment in Liu Ruohe's eyes was not concealed at all.

Gu Deyin thought it was extremely ridiculous, and she looked at her calmly, "In what capacity do you say such things to me? In my opinion, the bark of the city wall tree is not as thick-skinned as you."

Liu Ruohe couldn't fool Gu Deyin with her words, so she had to turn around and leave in defeat.

But when she left, she still didn't forget to curse, "People like you should die cleanly."

"I'll give this back to you, sister-in-law."

Gu Deyin deliberately emphasized the word sister-in-law to prevent the woman from forgetting her identity as a widow.

When Liu Ruohe left, she gritted her teeth and distorted her face. She was so frightened that all the servants took a detour when they saw her.

Except for these two ignorant people who came to scold her, others including Mrs. Xu were indifferent to Gu Deyin's condition and didn't even pretend to be.

Gu Deyin was also happy that she didn't have to deal with them, so she wouldn't be so disgusted that she couldn't eat for the whole day.

Xu Huiyu's wedding date was set hastily and it arrived in the blink of an eye.

Gu Deyin said, "It's time to tell the elder girl the truth about this marriage." (End of Chapter)
