Chapter 69 Outbreak
"Young Madam, Young Madam, something happened. Madam was locked up in Wanshuangzhai by the people around the master. Madam Qiu, who was by Madam's side, is nowhere to be found. It is said that she was thrown into the farm and beaten to death."

Meixiang, who was always steady, ran in quickly from outside and reported the news outside at a very fast speed.

At that time, Xu Shuhe was drinking tea and talking with Chen Zhi in the room. After hearing Meixiang's report, although it was expected, he was relieved.

This is what Guo Yunya did.

"But why?" Chen Zhi asked, not knowing the inside story.

Meixiang stopped and took a deep breath before telling the details of what she had found out.

"The master wanted to take Miss Guo as a concubine, but the mistress was not happy. As the mistress's confidant, Madam Qiu bribed a man and managed to send away the two maids who served Miss Guo in the other courtyard, allowing the man to humiliate Miss Guo and ruin her innocence. She wanted the master to catch the adulterer, creating the illusion that Miss Guo had an affair while the master was at the Liang family for a banquet and would not be at the other courtyard. However, she did not expect Miss Guo to be so stubborn and put up a desperate resistance. She stabbed the man with a hairpin and used the hair oil she used to comb her hair to set fire to the house, intending to die with the thief. When the master arrived, the man had just escaped from the fire. Miss Guo had lost her innocence and refused to live. After redressing her grievances with the master, she committed suicide in the fire and could not be rescued."

After hearing these words, there was a moment of silence in the room.

Obviously Chen Zhidu understood that whatever Mother Qiu did was definitely instructed by Feng.

Not only was his action extremely vicious this time, but it was also discovered by Chen Huaiqian, which must have made Chen Huaiqian extremely angry.

After all, Chen Huaiqian really likes Guo Yunya and wants to bring her home.

Not only did Feng insult people, he also killed them, and he was originally planning to frame them. These three points combined definitely angered Chen Huaiqian.

It seemed that he was going to happily marry his beautiful concubine soon, but now she is gone, and he has not yet suffered such an injustice.

The fact that Chen Huaiqian directly ordered the killing of Mother Qiu showed his disgust and resentment towards Feng.

"Father-in-law must be feeling very uncomfortable right now, why don't you go and try to persuade him." Xu Shuhe said in a low voice, "Second brother doesn't know how to speak, and he's afraid of making father-in-law angry, and fourth brother is not at home."

Chen Zhi raised his eyes to look at her, and he already understood what Xu Shuhe meant, "Okay, I'll go take a look."

After he left, Xu Shuhe turned to Xinyue and gave instructions.

"It's hot today. Go to the kitchen and get some soup and snacks to cool you down."

Xinyue understood what he meant and set off immediately.

Front yard study.

Chen Huaiqian slumped in his chair, looking decadent and grief-stricken.

It's like losing the treasure of true love.

Looking at his father like this, Chen Zhi couldn't help but wonder if his father had been this sad when his biological mother passed away.

Maybe not. After all, when his mother Zhou was the legal wife, Chen Huaiqian had a concubine named Feng.

But before Feng came to power, she would never have imagined that there would be a day like today. Chen Huaiqian treated her like this just for the sake of being a concubine who had never been married.

Chen Zhi began to feel sorry for his mother, and that Chen Huaiqian was not a good match. But he could not say what he was thinking at the moment, and when he opened his mouth, he still spoke words of comfort.

"Dad, the dead cannot be resurrected. If Miss Guo were alive, she wouldn't want to see you so sad and angry for her that you'd ruin your health."

"Yun Ya was only a teenager. How could these people have the heart to kill such a good girl!" Chen Huaiqian's eyes were red. "She was a strong-willed person. She refused to live in obscurity and committed suicide in the fire. I harmed her and I failed to protect her."

Chen Zhi lowered his eyes to hide the sarcasm in his eyes, "Dad, don't blame yourself too much. This is all because of that bitch's audacity. She dared to use such a vicious scheme to harm others. She has been in charge of things by mother's side for many years, which has made her even more bold and vicious."

These words sounded comforting, but in fact they mentioned Feng and Mother Qiu again, and implied that Mother Qiu was just a servant, and that she was able to do such a thing because someone condoned and supported her.

At this moment, Chen Huaiqian was sad because of love. His mind was working quickly and clearly, and his face turned cold immediately.

"I know your mother doesn't like Yun Ya, but she agreed to it in front of me, and even ordered me to do such evil things behind my back. I don't know when she became such a vicious person!"

"People's hearts change easily. I think mother just cares about you too much and doesn't want other people to enter the house." Chen Zhi whispered.

This made Chen Huaiqian angrily rebuke, "Jealousy is a big taboo for women! Moreover, she even killed an innocent life for it. How can I forgive her!"

Seeing that he was getting angry, Chen Zhi continued to "comfort" him.

However, before they could be comforted here, something happened on the other side, and it was reported directly to Chen Huaiqian.

The person who came was Xinyue, who reported that Feng had instructed the kitchen assistant Wang Ren to put abortion drugs in Xu Shuhe's food.

According to Xinyue's story, she had just gone to the kitchen to ask for sour plum soup, and seeing that Wang Ren was taking a long time to serve the soup, she went in to take a look, and saw Wang Ren putting drugs into the sour plum soup. Catching him red-handed, Wang Ren confessed everything.

It was said that Feng thought Xu Shuhe was pregnant and had kept it a secret from her family. Feng disliked Xu Shuhe, so she secretly asked him to tamper with his diet, hoping to make Xu Shuhe suffer in silence.

"A few days ago, the young lady had abdominal pain, so she asked a doctor to see her. The doctor said it was caused by eating too many cold foods. The young lady didn't think much about it, but just thought it was because she drank too much iced sour plum soup. She has been restraining herself these past few days. She never thought that she would be caught today. It's not the sour plum soup that was to blame, but someone put drugs in the soup. Master, please make a decision for the third young lady. How did the third young lady offend the lady so much that she even forbade the third young lady to have a child!"

Xinyue knelt in front of Chen Huaiqian, crying and sobbing.

"If the Third Young Master's wife is really pregnant, wouldn't she have a miscarriage for no apparent reason? If the Third Young Master's wife is pregnant, the child will be the flesh and blood of the Chen family!"

After watching Xinyue's performance, Chen Zhi followed closely behind with an annoyed look on his face.

"Dad, Shu He has been wronged everywhere since he came into the family, but he is still sensible and filial. Mother still wants to do such a thing. Could it be that because the son is not her biological son, she wants her son to have no descendants?"

He was already angry, and now Xu Shuhe brought this matter out, which was like adding fuel to the fire.

Chen Huaiqian's face turned pale and he immediately overturned everything on the desk to the ground.

"Okay, okay. I have respected her and obeyed her arrangements over the years. I never thought that she would become so lawless and vicious. She has taken control of the people around me, killed a life, and even extended her hands to the children to torment them. She even gave my daughter-in-law abortion drugs. If this gets out, everyone in Qizhou City will curse my Chen family! She is so outrageous. It seems that she has the final say in the Chen family. Is she the only one who rules the world?!"

"It's unreasonable and unforgivable!" Chen Huaiqian slammed the table in anger, "Divorce my wife, I want to divorce this vicious woman!"
