The mistress of the Hou family went crazy after doting on concubines and killing their wives.

Chapter 43: Fill a pot of Juezi soup
Lu Shanyuan was startled and hurriedly rushed to the back window. He pushed it open and was about to climb out. He just put one foot on the window.

A dark shadow appeared and asked faintly, "Do you need help?"

"what!"

Lu Shanyuan was so frightened that he stepped back. His feet were hung and he couldn't get down, so he fell directly under the window. Regardless of the pain in his butt, he got up and closed the window hard.

Lu Wan heard a voice outside the door, "Why is there a man in my cousin's room? Open the door quickly, I want to see who the adulterer is!"

The maid was so frightened that she started crying. Aunt He rushed over, knelt down on the ground, grabbed Lu Wan's skirt, and cried, "Miss, our wife has been harmed to the point of death by you, why don't you... Show mercy and let her live."

Zhiruo and Dongqing went to pull it, but the old lady was holding on to Lu Wan's skirt. If they pulled hard, the skirt might be torn off.

Nanny Wu has a big headache, and she can’t help anyone.

"Aunt He is the one who followed my cousin into the house, right? You must know who the adulterer is, and you are an accomplice!"

"Young lady, you can't just talk nonsense. Our wife didn't have a miscarriage or an adulterer. You asked someone to give you Juezi soup. You're so vicious, you'll get retribution!"

"How dare you!" Grandma Wu couldn't stand it anymore and slapped her, "How dare you talk to a big girl like that!"

Grandma He was beaten, but her hands still grabbed Lu Wan's skirt.

Lu Wan raised her eyebrows, squatted down, and looked at her, "How do you know this is Juezi Soup? Unless you have smelled it and used it before."

When Grandma He met those deep eyes, she felt panicked.

Lu Wan suddenly pulled out the golden hairpin from her head and poked it into Grandma He's hand. The sharp tail of the hairpin went straight through her palm, and blood dripped from the tail of the needle to the ground.

Grandma He screamed and let go of her hand.

Lu Wan pulled out the gold hairpin and brought out the blood, stood up, threw it to Zhiruo with disgust, kicked him over with a flying kick, "Gag and tie him up, wait for me to examine him properly."

Several strong women rushed up to him, held him down, tied him up quickly, gagged him and dragged him out.

Seeing that the matter was getting serious, Grandma Wu also guessed that Lu Wan would not let the people inside easily go.

He was worried and said in a low voice, "Girl, the Marquis is worried about his cousin and his daughter, so it's normal for him to come and see her."

"Oh? So it's my father who's in there, and he's not an adulterer. What are you hiding from?"

Lu Wan knocked on the door, "Father, are you in there? If so, please make a noise. If not, I will report the adulterer to the police immediately."

As soon as the door opened, Lu Shanyuan faced an angry face, but he couldn't let it happen.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Oh, you are really my father. What are you doing? You don't want to be misunderstood as your cousin's adulterer."

Lu Shanyuan was furious, "Young lady, you have been talking about rape all day long, why are you so shameless!"

Lu Wan pushed Lu Shanyuan away, walked closer to the room, and smiled at the weak Zhao Ruyi on the bed, "The Lu family is so shameless. Face has long been stepped on in the Lu family."

Lu Shanyuan wanted to stop Lu Wan, but was blocked by Grandma Wu, "Master Marquis, the old lady ordered a servant to accompany the eldest lady to collect the eldest lady's dowry. You'd better not stop her."

Lu Wan had to let out enough anger, otherwise the crazy girl would not let the Marquis go.

Hearing this, Lu Shanyuan had no choice but to endure it, but looked at the pitiful Zhao Ruyi on the bed and couldn't bear to leave.

Lu Wan walked to the bed and looked at Zhao Ruyi, "Cousin, you have just had a miscarriage and you need to take good care of yourself. Grandma kindly gave you tonics, why did you overturn them? You should repay your kindness."

Zhao Ruyi's face turned livid with anger, "I didn't have a miscarriage, I just had a miscarriage."

"Oh, then it's even more important to drink tonics, which just happen to replenish blood and nourish qi." Lu Wan waved.

The old woman came in carrying a big copper pot. "You have to drink it all, or else you will disappoint your grandmother's love for you." Lu Wan took a step back.

The mother-in-law poured a bowl full of black medicine. Zhao Ruyi turned pale and looked at Lu Shanyuan hurriedly, "Cousin, I don't want to drink it. It's too bitter. I'm fine. There's no need to drink it."

Lu Shanyuan felt bitter just looking at it, "Mama He has already given her medicine, so she doesn't need to drink this medicine."

Lu Wan looked at him and said, "Father, my grandmother ordered her to be fried in the Yishou Hall. Does my father want to disobey my grandmother's order for her? Unless the child is your father, then that is a different matter."

"What nonsense! Ruyi's life is pitiful, so don't push people too hard!" Lu Shanyuan blurted out.

He dare not admit it!

Zhao Ruyi felt a chill in her heart and gritted her teeth with hatred, what a bitch!

Lu Wan interrupted him, "The Zhao family is not pitiful. Grandma knows better than you. Who dares not to drink the medicine given by grandma?"

"I won't drink it! This is not a tonic at all, it's Juezi Decoction!" Zhao Ruyi cried and smashed the bed with all her strength.

Lu Wan's smile didn't reach her eyes, "Why do you say this is Juezi soup? Have you cooked it for others? So you know?"

Zhao Ruyi stopped crying, her eyes were panicked, and she looked at Lu Shanyuan for help.

Lu Shanyuan's face darkened, "How could you drink such a thing!"

Lu Wan took a step closer, her eyes as ice as ice, "Father, are you saying that my grandmother was evil-hearted and gave her cousin Juezi Soup?"

Lu Shanyuan shook his head subconsciously, "No, no, that's not what I meant."

Aunt Wu quickly intervened and said with a threat in her words, "Master Hou, this soup is indeed cooked by the old lady. You can't stop it, otherwise, you will be accused of being disobedient and unfilial to your elders. Besides, express your gratitude. The matter of my aunt's miscarriage has not been found out yet, and it is inconvenient for you to get involved in the affairs of the back house, so as not to taint the official reputation, so please go back."

Aunt Wu's words hit Lu Shanyuan's weak point. He didn't dare to look at Zhao Ruyi, struggled for a moment, and then ran away as if running away.

Zhao Ruyi stared at the man's fleeing figure, almost going crazy.

Is this the man she thought she could rely on?

"Serve my cousin to drink the tonic, and make sure not a drop is left." After Lu Wan finished speaking, she turned around and went out.

Two ladies from the Yishou Hall swarmed up to him, one pinched his mouth, the other picked up the pot and started pouring it directly.

Lu Wan walked out of the door and said to Nanny Wu in front of everyone, "Nanny Wu, just now Nanny He said that the doctor in the government knows this prescription. If it's my grandmother, I can give it a snack, so as not to misunderstand my grandmother."

How could Nanny Wu not understand, "I will report this to the old lady when I get back and find out why my cousin misunderstood it as Juezi soup."

Lu Wan looked at the items in the yard with satisfaction, "Shuyu, Dongqing, help us deliver the big carved bed inside to the Yishou Hall."

"Yes." Shuyu and Dongqing responded loudly.

No one in the garden dared to say no anymore.

She wanted to see how long her grandmother, who had run out of tricks, could sleep on this luxurious carved bed.
Zhiruo and others supported Lu Wan back to Yuyi Pavilion, chattering all the way.

Lu Wan was rarely happy, so they were noisy.

Zhiruo knew that Lu Wan had not eaten well for dinner, so she took Xiyan and rushed into the kitchen to get busy.

Dawn was left in the room, and the waiter Lu Wan changed into regular clothes, "Miss, I heard something just now."

"what's up?"
