Carrying the little lucky star, leading the villain on the road to exile

Chapter 108. Accusation
Gu Kaiyuan looked incredulous. "My mother was perfectly fine before, how could she be gone?"

Second brother, don't you know medicine? Is this how you treated Mother?
You're supposed to be well-read? Why don't you go and bring your mother back to life?
"If you can't save her, why are you pretending? You're the one who harmed Mother."

Gu Kaiyuan's outburst caused the expressions of the Gu family members to change.

Gu Kaichen, in particular, clutched his chest, his face full of self-blame. His mother was fine before, so why?
It's all my fault for bragging in the past. He doesn't know anything about medicine and has never read any medical books. Why didn't I make that clear before?
Now look what happened! We couldn't find a doctor, and it even cost my mother her life.

“Gu Kaiyuan, don’t talk nonsense,” Xu Yulan said, having come to her senses. Her husband still had to take the imperial examinations, and his reputation couldn’t be ruined. “My aunt was already seriously injured, and we don’t have any medicine here. My husband has only read a few medical books. When did he ever say he could cure diseases?”

Mother's wound reopens because..."

As soon as Xu Yulan looked at Gu Baijiang, her face turned even paler, and she quickly bit her lip in fright.

"Why? Because you didn't take good care of her?" Gu Kaiyuan didn't let her off the hook just because she didn't speak. "Back then, you and your sister-in-law were arguing about taking care of Mother, and this is how you took care of her."

Liu Yun and Xu Yulan were also confused by his words.

How could they take such good care of someone?

No, that's not their fault. If their father-in-law hadn't kicked them...

The sisters-in-law once again focused their gaze on Gu Baijiang. With his two daughters-in-law staring at him like that, even Gu Baijiang, with his thick skin, couldn't quite bear it at this moment.

After all, he really kicked Xu Huizhen in front of his two daughters-in-law, granddaughter, and grandson. Otherwise, Xu Huizhen's wound wouldn't have reopened, and she wouldn't have lost her life like that.

"What's the use of saying all this now? Hurry up and get your mother settled. We'll make sure she's settled after we stop to rest."

As soon as the oxcart stopped, Ma Zhi came over with his whip, saying, "I don't care what's going on here, you can't stop here, hurry up and leave."

Those behind them had already heard clearly that Old Madam Gu had died.

Although I felt some sympathy for them, I couldn't stay because of them.

Every day is planned out; otherwise, how could we possibly catch the right stop at each rest stop?

If supplies aren't replenished in time, are these people supposed to travel on an empty stomach?
"Let's go now," Gu Baijiang really didn't dare to offend these guards. If they didn't help if the men in black attacked again, his family would be meat on their chopping board.

"Gu Kaiyuan, stop messing around here and get out of here."

Gu Kaiyuan said, "My mother is gone now, and I want to be there for her one last time to fulfill my filial duty."

"Is this the time to talk about these things?" Gu Baijiang didn't know why his son was so stupid. He regretted listening to Madam Xu and not letting him study more.

Even the most unruly child will benefit to some extent under the guidance of a renowned teacher.

"Then you take the ox first, I'll go and call Bai Shi over, and have her help my sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to help Mother get ready."

Gu Kaiyuan turned to run away, but Liu Yun stopped him, "Third brother, it's better not to trouble your wife."

She's currently pregnant and doesn't want to upset her mother.

"Is that so?" Gu Kaiyuan scanned the crowd, his expression clearly disbelieving. "We're all family, where did this idea come from?"

Liu Yun said, "I'm telling the truth. You haven't been involved in these things before, but we, the people who work in the inner quarters, have helped out and know these rules."

“But if Bai doesn’t show up, that would be incredibly unfilial.” “You can’t say that. Everyone knows what’s going on with Third Sister-in-law right now; they won’t be so picky.”

Gu Kaiyuan, who was not quite sensible, finally gave up, saying, "Then I'll trust my sister-in-law for now. I'll ask some of the elders later; I believe they'll have more experience than my sister-in-law."

After Gu Kaiyuan finished speaking, he walked over and continued to lead the cow with the rope, but his expression was very sorrowful, and he would occasionally raise his sleeve to cover his face.

Inside the carriage

Due to limited resources, and because Hsu Hui-chen had soiled all her clothes, everyone could only make do with finding a relatively clean and intact set of clothes for her to change into.

Liu, Xu Yulan, and Gu Antong were all sweating profusely when they finally managed to change their clothes.

"Sister-in-law, why didn't you let Bai Shi come over?" Xu Yulan asked when she had a chance to comb Xu Huizhen's hair.

"The taboos I mentioned really exist. Although we are in dire straits now and cannot follow these rules, it is better to believe that they do exist."

Besides, Bai Suihe is pregnant now, do you and I really dare to order her around?
If something happens, and the third brother starts yelling like that, what will become of our reputation?

Liu Yun realized that none of the three Gu brothers were easy to deal with.

Gu Kaiyuan hid himself too well before. Let's see who has taken advantage of the couple since they were exiled.
He had just taken the initiative and smeared their second branch of the family several times, but his second sister-in-law was too stupid to see through it.

She had been infected before, but didn't react at first. By the time she realized what was happening, it was too late to clarify.

Anyway, she didn't want to get involved with the three wives and their spouses; it was best if everyone could live in peace.

Their goal is with their father; there's no need to waste time on irrelevant people.

Who knew that Mrs. Xu would be so stupid as to actually ask this question?

"It's really a good thing for Madam Bai. I just hope her belly will be more cooperative and not cause any more miscarriages like it did in the manor."

Liu Yun ignored her. Bai Suihe was just pretending in the mansion; it was probably only the Xu family aunt and niece who were fooled.

But what does this have to do with them?
Gu Kaiyuan was neither valued by his father nor liked by his mother. If anything good happened in the family, their branch of the family would definitely not benefit from it. Now their only rival was the second branch of the family, and she couldn't wait for the third branch of the family to fight with the second branch.

"Hurry up and finish tidying up, then take a rest. We'll be busy tonight." Liu Yun left the last things to Xu Yulan, then huddled in the back with Gu Antong to rest.

"Mother, I'm scared," Gu Antong said, her hands still trembling from today's experience.

Liu Ying held her hands, feeling their coldness, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, this is your own grandmother, she certainly won't harm you."

She will only bless you and your brother, ensuring you both enjoy good fortune and a bright future.

Liu Yun wasn't without fear, but she couldn't show it.

“I’m afraid of Grandfather,” Gu Antong whispered in her ear, “Grandmother is all because of Grandfather…”

"Don't talk nonsense," Liu Yun said, covering her mouth in fright. When she realized that Xu Yulan wasn't looking this way, she warned in a low voice, "Your grandfather did it by accident. From now on, you must keep this matter to yourself. No matter who it is, even your father, you must not tell anyone."

If word gets out, it will be difficult for you to get married in the future. Do you understand what your mother is saying?
