The clan leader couldn't stand the old lady's harsh treatment of Lin Mingyue's family, and he always felt guilty about their separation.

Now that he heard the old lady distorting right and wrong, he could no longer hold back and stood up.

The clan leader described the division of the family that day in detail to everyone. During the description, the old lady's face turned pale and blue, and she even forgot to pretend to cry.

Lin Ling snorted heavily. If it weren't for the elders talking in front of him, he really wanted to scold the old lady.

"It seems that Shu'er and Ling'er are not at fault. Please don't lie to others and make them misunderstand you in the future!"

Lin Mingyue's words were like a slap in the face, hitting the old lady hard.

He actually dared to point at her and accuse her of lying in public. Wasn't she lying for their own good? How could their family of three live well after leaving the General's Mansion!

The old lady's eyes rolled and she quickly changed the subject. She no longer mentioned the matter of dividing the family and started to play the emotional card.

"Mingyue, mother just can't bear to leave you. Have you forgotten that when you were sick as a child, mother fed you medicine spoonful by spoonful. After you grew up, you were busy with military affairs and couldn't take care of the family. Even when Yuanshuang was sick, I took care of her myself!"

The few old ladies who had just been slapped in the face by the clan leader's words had already stopped making noises and dared not say a word.

But after hearing this, he straightened up again, like a cat that smelled fish.

Daughter-in-law? That's what mothers-in-law like to attack, play with, and manipulate the most. When it comes to daughters-in-law, they have endless complaints.

And no matter what they say, they are right, because they are the elders!

"That's right. I heard that Ye Yuanshuang is a sickly girl. It's a pity that your mother has been taking care of her. In every family, the daughter-in-law serves the mother-in-law, but in your family, it's the other way around."

"As expected, people of the same family stick together. I didn't expect my daughter-in-law to be so difficult to serve. It's a pity that the old lady loves her son so much, but now she has not received any good reward!"

When mentioning Ye Yuanshuang, the indifference on Lin Mingyue's face wavered. She was the love of his life, and also the pain that had been buried deep in his heart for many years.

And the old lady did take good care of Ye Yuanshuang during the two years she was ill...

When Lin Yushu saw Lin Mingyue's slightly softened expression, she sighed in her heart, thinking that the old lady really understood her father and could touch upon his soft spot at once.

"My mother was seriously ill at that time. Although I was young, I still remember it."

Lin Yushu suddenly interrupted, and the old lady frowned when she heard it. She had seen many of Lin Yushu's methods before, so could she be up to something weird again today?

The old lady took a deep breath secretly. She was not afraid. She just wanted to embarrass Lin Mingyue today and then beg her to move back to the general's mansion. Lin Yushu could not do anything to her!

"At that time, the old lady sent someone to invite a highly skilled itinerant doctor to come to the mansion to treat my mother. The doctor had a very good pulse and soon my mother's health improved. At that time, I had a strong interest in studying medicine. I even secretly hid a packet of the dregs of the medicine my mother drank, hoping to learn from the itinerant doctor when I grew up and treat my mother. Unfortunately, my mother passed away in the end..."

The old lady had been listening absent-mindedly at first, but the words "he secretly hid a packet of medicine dregs used by his mother" suddenly made her shudder and feel very uneasy.

Lin Yushu, who had been observing the old lady's expression, took out an old paper bag from her arms with satisfaction. After opening it, the black, dry medicine residue exuded a very faint medicinal aroma.

"If it weren't for this separation, I would have forgotten that I kept this thing. Now I know a little bit about medicine, so I'm very curious..."

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the medicine residue in her hand. They all guessed that Lin Yushu would not bring up things that happened many years ago for no reason.

Lin Mingyue and Lin Ling were so shocked that they forgot to breathe. Their faces flushed and their heartbeats quickened, fearing that Lin Yushu would say something that would break their hearts.

"So I'm very curious, why is there aconite in the medicine my mother drinks?!"

Aconitum is a common and highly poisonous substance that can cause coma, vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. If taken in small amounts multiple times, it can take a person's life within a few days.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Especially Lin Mingyue, he rushed to Lin Yushu out of control, staring at the bag of medicine residue with red eyes and a face full of anger.

Lin Ling wasn't much better off. His face turned pale instantly, his lips trembled and his whole body was shaking.

It was this package of highly toxic medicine that took away the life of the most important person in their lives!!

The old lady also looked pale, but not because of anger, but because of fear.

How can it be? !

When Ye Yuanshuang died, Lin Yushu was only seven years old, still a little girl who knew nothing. How could she have left behind such a bag of medicine residues in advance, and kept it for so many years? !

But in an instant, her face was filled with grief and anger.

"Shu girl! You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Your mother clearly died of illness. Do you think she was poisoned?"

The old lady spoke with confidence. So many years have passed, who can tell where this bag of medicine residue came from, and whether anyone has tampered with it?

Humph, you want to use a bag of drug residue of unknown origin to redress the grievances of that bitch? You’re just dreaming!

Lin Yushu had long anticipated the old lady's reaction. She used her eyes to calm her angry father and brother, then turned to look at the old lady.

"What the old lady said was true. This bag of medicine residue was just a clue for me to suspect my mother's death. But God helps those who work hard. I finally found the itinerant doctor who treated my mother."

The old lady shuddered all over and unconsciously looked at Lin Yazi beside her. Lin Yazi also frowned guiltily.

No one noticed that Lin Minglang, who was standing aside, had an extremely gloomy look in his eyes at the moment, and he looked at the old lady and Lin Yazi with a cold gaze.

Without waiting for the old lady to speak, Leng Dai rushed out and dragged a sloppy man who was tied up into the house.

This commotion attracted quite a few guests, who stood outside the main hall, pointing and gesticulating at the people inside, watching the excitement with great interest.

At this time, the second lady walked in slowly and looked around at the guests watching the fun in confusion. Just as she was about to ask something, she saw the person that Leng Dai dragged in.

Why does it look so familiar?

Leng Dai grabbed the man's dirty hair and pulled it down hard. The man felt pain and raised his head with his teeth bared.

Everyone saw what the man looked like.

The pale and skinny man opened his mouth wide, revealing a few black and yellow teeth. His dry face was full of wrinkles, and he looked to be at least sixty years old.

Seeing the shocked expressions of the old lady, the second lady and Lin Yazi, Lin Yushu knew that Changshengpu had not found the wrong person.

The old lady gave the second wife a fierce look. Back then, the old lady ordered the second husband to kill this itinerant doctor, so why did he appear here alive today? !

Faced with the old lady's silent rebuke, the second lady lowered her head guiltily.

Back then, the Second Lady was completely unable to compete with the Old Lady. She was the one who did all the dirty work, while the Old Lady ended up with nothing.

So she was cautious and locked up the itinerant doctor who drugged Ye Yuanshuang for eight years, just to give the old lady a handle.

I didn’t expect that two years ago, this half-dead itinerant doctor actually ran away…
