However, Nanny Qian’s meaning was clear, so Madam Yao naturally understood. “This person is about to die. After all, we’re sisters-in-law. It’s indeed time to go over and take a look.”

In less than the time it took to burn an incense stick, Madam Yao was dressed neatly. She quickly followed Bi Tao to the main house. Instead of going to An Shou Hall, she went straight to the Tranquil Heart Residence.

Nanny Qian and Bi Tao consciously guarded the courtyard and did not follow her in.

If Eldest Madam Yang really wanted to make arrangements for her funeral, the servants couldn’t enter rashly.

There were four screens in the middle of the inner room, and a Buddhist shrine was placed in the outer room. Just as Madam Yao was about to circle into the screen, she heard a man’s voice from inside—

Madam Yao was shocked and took two steps back. Then, she realized that it was her uncle’s voice.

What was Madam Yang doing? She had said that she wanted to see her and hurriedly asked Bi Tao to invite her over. Why was Eldest Uncle still inside?

For a moment, she did not know whether to leave or stay!

Yang Shuwan grinned strangely. A person’s words are kind when they’re about to die. Nanny Li.” She looked at Nanny Li, her turbid eyes filled with threat. “There are some things that you’ve been hiding for more than ten years. It’s time to tell Master…”

Yu Zongzheng frowned and said impatiently, “What are you doing now?”

Yang Shuwan’s gray eyes were fixed on Nanny Li, who was standing still and trembling. “You still want to bring this secret into the coffin?”

These words were clearly telling her that she wouldn’t be able to live if she didn’t tell her.

Nanny Li thought of the old and young in the family, and her legs immediately went limp. She knelt on the ground with a thud. “Eldest Master, I have something to say about the late Eldest Madam Xie.”

At noon, when she returned to the Tranquil Heart Residence, First Madam inexplicably mentioned “Old Madam Lai”.

She even said some strange things.

—Do you know Old Madam Lai? I heard that she used to do cleaning in Matriarch’s courtyard.

It didn’t matter if they didn’t know each other. In any case, An Shou Hall was in the north courtyard. One of you would be sweeping the inner courtyard, while the other would be doing ch.o.r.es in the outer courtyard. They wouldn’t be far from each other.

—In this residence, you’re the person I trust the most. There are still a few last things I want to ask of you…

At that time, Nanny Li did not understand what First Madam meant, but she did understand that First Madam wanted her to die, and she had no room to refuse.

Nanny Li listened to First Madam’s instructions and used the excuse that she had used up all the old ginseng in the Tranquil Heart Residence to go to the courtyard to look for Old Madam Lai.

After threatening and tempting her, she obtained a shocking secret from Old Madam Lai.

On such a hot day, Nanny Li broke out in a cold sweat. As if no one had drained their energy, she left the courtyard in a daze and went to An Shou Hall to look for Eldest Miss.

She used the excuse that Third Miss was not feeling well and did not want to disturb her to ask Eldest Miss for the old mountain ginseng.

When Eldest Miss found out that Third Miss was sick, she would definitely send someone to visit her.

Hui Xiang deliberately caused a commotion with Bai Ye, saying that Bai Ye

had been taking care of her grandmother and serving Young Miss wholeheartedly, causing her to fall sick.

Bai Ye was also one-track-minded and grateful to Third Miss. After hearing such criticism, how could she tolerate it? She immediately went to look for Third Miss and said that she wanted to send her grandmother away.

When Xia Tao arrived at the courtyard, she happened to hear Bai Ye and Third Miss’s conversation.

This plan was to send Old Madam Lai away legitimately. After Old Madam Lai left the residence, whatever happened in the residence would have nothing to do with her, and Third Miss would not be implicated.

Outside, Hui Xiang and Old Madam Lai were the only two people who knew. If anything happened, it would be their bad luck.

Old Madam Lai only entered the residence to see Bai Ye.

Third Miss was sick and did not know anything.

At the thought of this, Nanny Li gritted her teeth. used to do ch.o.r.es in the north courtyard. Occasionally, when I was busy at An Shou Hall, I would have the chance to enter An Shou Hall to work.’

Yu Zongzhengs expression became even more impatient. “What are you trying to say!’

Nanny Li continued, “I still remember that on the day of Master and Second Madam’s marriage, everyone in the residence was so busy that their feet didn’t touch the ground. Eldest Madam Xie saw that the auspicious time had arrived, but Master hadn’t gone to welcome the bride yet. Worried that she would miss the auspicious time, she called a maidservant over to An Shou Hall and reported it to Matriarch…”

Four screens away, Madam Yao, who was about to leave, suddenly heard about the day of her marriage. She couldn’t walk anymore.

Yu Zongzheng was also stunned.

That day, Second Brother had drunk a lot and had yet to change into his wedding clothes when the auspicious time came. He was called to An Shou Hall by his mother. Later, he missed the auspicious time and was late to welcome the bride.

He was both indignant and envious.

He thought to himself, “Second Brother married a well-connected and n.o.ble scholarly woman. He’s in bliss and doesn’t know how to appreciate it. He actually missed the auspicious time to welcome the bride.”

At this point, Nanny Li’s face turned pale. “When I arrived at An Shou Hall, I didn’t see anyone in the house, so I didn’t dare to enter rashly. However, I was worried that I would miss Master’s time, so I became bold. I didn’t expect to hear Matriarch reprimanding Second Master…”

Yu Zongzheng said nothing.

On the day of his second brother’s marriage, he was drunk before he even welcomed the bride. When the auspicious time came, he had yet to change into his wedding clothes to welcome the bride. His mother would definitely reprimand him. It would not be glorious if this matter spread.

Therefore, other than his mother, he, and his second brother, no one else in the residence knew about this.

Outsiders only thought that something had gone wrong in the residence, so they were not surprised. After all, no one would not make a mistake in such a big matter like marriage.

For Nanny Li to know about this, it was obvious that she was not lying.

“Matriarch was scolding Second Master.” Nanny Li’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. Her mouth trembled, and even her voice was trembling uncontrollably. “You b*stard, you’re about to get married. Why are you still making a fuss? Do you want to make a fool of yourself in the entire Yu Residence? Roujia has been married to your eldest brother for more than half a year. Hurry up and change into your wedding clothes and go to the Yao Residence to welcome her…

Yu Zongzheng was like a bolt from the blue.

Madam Yao, who was four screens away, felt the world spin and her eyes turn black.

It wasn’t until this moment that the details of the marriage flashed through his mind. Some things that he couldn’t see in the past were connected to a shocking truth at this moment.

Yu Zongshen was infatuated with his eldest sister-in-law!

While he did not really want to marry her.

After the initial shock, Yu Zongzheng flew into a rage. “You b*tch slave, how dare you spout nonsense…” He kicked Nanny Li’s chest.

Nanny Li wailed and fell to the ground. She covered her chest and vomited blood. “l dare to swear to the heavens that everything I said today is true. I’m willing to die to prove my innocence…”

Before Yu Zongzheng could react—

Nanny Li hit the corner of the table on the bed like a bull. With a bang, her forehead bled.

Nanny Li fell to the ground limply. Blood gushed out of the blood hole on her head. Her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn’t even make a sound. She glared and stopped breathing..
