Chapter 513 Claustrophobia
"For so many years, I have devoted myself to you and your Jade Mansion without reservation! And you treat me like this! Torturing me? Not only do you not let me be the head of the family, but you also promote the little bitch and the little bastard, ahahahahahaha!"

Huo Jinxiu chuckled, "These past few days, I've just watched you guys having fun and having fun. Do you want to welcome a grandson? Hahahaha!"

Aunt Cui's face turned pale and she staggered, almost falling to the ground.

"Cui, you're done." Huo Jinxiu stared at her face and smiled like a devil. "Your belly is so big, you can't get rid of it even if you want to."

She walked towards her crazily and laughed in a low voice, "You and your little bastard go to die together. Be buried with my girl! Hehehehehehe."

"Impossible, it's not true." Yu Shoudao swallowed hard and turned back to glare at Aunt Cui.

Aunt Cui's expression was so frightened and guilty that there was no need for him to say anything. His hope of getting away with it was immediately shattered into pieces, leaving only sad residue.

"Don't take your chances, my master." Huo Jinxiu giggled foolishly, waving her hands with a silly look on her face, "You won't have any other sons in this life. Those women raised in the back garden are just decorations. Look, no matter how hard you tried over the years, have you ever given birth to a son?"

"Why is she the only one who has it? Because she has a strange man outside. The little bastard was conceived by her and the groom, hahahaha, master, why are you so stupid? You believe everything others say."

Yu Shoudao punched her hard in the face, and unable to control his rage, he grabbed her hair and beat her to death.

The old lady even spat out a mouthful of blood. She was so angry that she collapsed into the arms of the old lady, her fingers trembling madly, "Stop, stop her mouth, drag her, drag her to the woodshed and lock her up!"

Now she lost even the treatment of the small Buddhist temple. The old lady hated her so much that if it weren't for the huge size of the Huo Mansion, she would have strangled this vicious woman to death with her own hands.

"You damn old woman, you and your family will not have a good death! I am Huo Jinxiu, the eldest daughter of the Huo family, who dares to arrest me! Who dares!" Huo Jinxiu screamed as her mouth was blocked and she was dragged away alive by the servants.

After dealing with the crazy Mrs. Huo, Yu Shoudao glared at Aunt Cui with his big eyes, his gaze fixed on her bulging belly.

"Master, I didn't, Master, no, no..."

Yu Shoudao slapped Cui hard on the face and roared, "Cui has brought disgrace upon our family. Drag him down and drown him in the pond."

Aunt Cui fell to the ground with her buttocks, her pants soon soaked with blood. She screamed and cried, "Master, you can't just judge me guilty based on the words of my wife's family."

"Drag her away!" Yu Shoudao didn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore and yelled in anger.

The servants did not dare to delay. They blocked Cui's mouth and dragged her out quickly.

The blood on the ground was jarring to the eyes.

The old lady could not bear such stimulation and fainted on the spot with her head tilted.

When Yu Boyan got home, he learned that his mother had gone mad and stabbed his father, and that she had now been locked up in the woodshed by her grandmother. He fell dejectedly on a stool.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Yu Boyan couldn't understand how a good family could be in such a mess.

He sat in the front hall in a daze. After a while he saw his father, who looked very old, coming from the backyard with a doctor.

"Father."

Taoist Master Yu Shou sighed, "Boyan, the family will depend on you from now on."

"How's grandma?"

"She suffered a stroke. Now her mouth and eyes are crooked and she is half paralyzed. You can go down and see her." Yu Shoudao shook his head, dejected. "The doctor's words implied that we should prepare funeral supplies as soon as possible." Yu Boyan sat down with a thump. "Then what about mother..."

"Don't mention that vicious woman." Yu Shoudao's face was full of anger. "She pissed off your grandmother to death. She is guilty of being unfilial. It would not be too much for me to divorce her. But now, because you are about to take the imperial examination, I will spare her life for now."

"But Boyan, your career is more important. Don't mention that woman anymore." Yu Shoudao patted his son's shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't let this vicious woman hinder your future."

"When your grandmother passes away, your father will have to observe mourning for three years. I can't help you in your career. You should be smart and visit your grandmother more often when you have time. By the way, did you just come back from the Huo Mansion? What did they say over there?"

Yu Boyan wanted to cry but had no tears. "I went to ask, but...my grandmother and uncle didn't say anything. They just told me to go home and study."

I went to the Huo Mansion and drank a lot of tea.

The Huo family didn't treat his cousin badly, but they didn't tell him the truth. They just said some polite words and served him tea and sent him away.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that the Huo family clearly wanted to cut off ties with the Yu family, and would not share any news with them.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't angry. Those were his own grandmother and uncle. Now his mother was imprisoned in the woodshed, and they... didn't show any expression at all.

Yu Boyan felt extremely sad and powerless for a moment.

At the same time, after the Huo family sent away the young master, they soon received news that Huo Jinxiu had stabbed Master Yu with a knife, causing her mother-in-law to faint.

Yu was quite worried. She glanced at her mother-in-law secretly and asked in a low voice, "Mother, do you want to take care of Jinxiu's affairs?"

"Why bother with her?" Although the old lady was heartbroken, she knew her limits. "She committed a heinous crime. It's a blessing in disguise that the Yu Mansion didn't divorce her. I said it last time, just treat this daughter as if she didn't exist."

She waved her hands feebly, "You don't have to worry about it."

"There will be unrest in the capital in the near future. We just need to guard our gates and take care of ourselves."

"Eldest wife, second wife, please pay more attention to the children, keep them in check, and don't cause trouble."

The news the little girl brought before she left was shocking.

After much consideration, Mrs. Huo decided to stay in Beijing.

Firstly, the Huo family has deep roots in Beijing, and relocating the whole family would be far more difficult than relocating the Su family.

Secondly, the Huo family is a large and prosperous family with many officials serving in the court. If something really happens, no matter whether they are from the side branches or the main branches, they should be able to deal with it with everyone working together.

After much thought, the old lady decided to stay.

After working hard in Beijing for so many years, I can't destroy my own foundation and let all the hard work of my children and grandchildren go to waste.

[Lang'er, grandma is still very strong now. Don't worry, as long as the Huo Mansion is here, no matter where you fly to, as long as you are willing to come back, there will always be a place for you to stay in the capital.]

Yu Linlang narrowed her eyes and looked at the distant rippling blue waves, and pointed with her finger, "There are a flock of flying birds."

"It's a nice, sunny day today. Why don't we invite them up to have dinner with us?"

"Okay." With blue sky and white clouds above her head and the boundless water surface, Yu Linlang's mood became much brighter.
