Goldfield
Chapter 193: Exposed

He remembered very clearly that, at that moment, his kindly first wife, Lady Liu, had a weak body and they were very poor. Even so, she remained happy to receive her cousin's sister and her cousin's son. At first, Madam Zhang rushed to do all the work around the house and treated her son and daughter better than she treated her own son. In addition, he also did his best to take care of his bedridden older cousin. He said nothing about this and only spent long days outdoors fishing and collecting seafood to subsidize their income.

Under Madam Zhang's gentle care, Madam Liu's condition started to improve and even the doctor said that after she finished the last two prescriptions, she had almost made a full recovery. However, no one expected that, after she had spent two treatments, Madam Liu's illness would recur.

Everything that was valuable in the house had been sold, and they had borrowed money from people who could afford it. Madam Liu continued to take medicine but she never recovered again. His body, which was originally weak, could only last for a month or so before death came to pick him up.

Not long after Lady Liu died, she felt that her home lacking a female figure was not good. During that time, Madam Zhang worked very hard and also treated her two children well. Therefore, she took him as her second wife. At first, he managed to be fair to everyone in the family. However, after her third son was born, Madam Zhang's heart began to change. The change was most evident when their third son went to school. Madam Zhang became very stingy and would save every copper coin to pay for their third son's school fees.

“Iya! Absolutely right!” Madam Zhang chuckled as she stared fixedly at the roof beams. She acts as if she is talking to someone, my sweet “Swippy! I am the one who exchanged your medicine and let you, who will be cured, die in the end !! I'm doing this for the good of your two children !! If you don't die, then you must sell it to earn money for your treatment !! ”

Old Yu looked at Madam Zhang, who had an evil expression on her face, in shock. Apparently Madam Liu's illness did not recur, and she was actually killed by Madam Zhang… He would have never expected that the woman he had slept in the same bed for over twenty years was actually a poisonous snake.

Outside, Yu Hang and Xiaocao exchanged stunned gazes. Xiaocao covered her mouth with a hand and said in disbelief, “Our biological grandmother was killed by that old woman !! He killed our real grandmother and even treated our branch very cruelly. Was she not afraid that our biological grandmother would come back and find her? ”

Yu Hang gritted his teeth while replying calmly, “That old girl has done too many bad things, so heaven will punish her! He was acting strange tonight. Do you think our real grandmother came back to pay off the bill with her? ”

“Ahhh —— don't kill me! I know I was wrong !! I'm not supposed to turn off your medicine and I'm not supposed to marry off your daughter to a widower who lives far away. I should not restrict the food of your sons and grandchildren and drive them out of the family during their most difficult time !! I admit everything, do not take my soul, do not take me —— My son will pass the imperial examination in the future and become a high official. I must be the head of the office !! Free me !! ” The fear in Madam Zhang's heart finally overflows, and she doesn't try to be indifferent anymore. He sobbed as he knelt on the kang bed and performed an angry kowtow towards the roof beam. Rhythmic knocking sounds could be heard.

Madam Zhang looked at Mistress Liu who was a ghost before her eyes. The other woman had long, messy hair that was down, and she was dressed all in white. The eyes of the apparition were dripping blood as they continued to stare at him. Madam Zhang saw the ghost extending a hand with a long nail to her neck. He immediately felt his breath snorting in his throat and fainted back with his eyes pointed at his head.

The old woman wrapped her hands around her neck, squeezing tightly. His face was turning blue due to lack of air and his tongue was coming out of his mouth. Although Old Yu was very shocked inside, he could not see Madam Zhang suffocating. He hurriedly left and forcefully removed his hand from his neck.

Madam Zhang felt as if she was a fish that had been thrown out of the water. He really thought he was going to die. Regrets swirled within him. By the time she left her previous husband's house with her son, even her own parents and older brother refused to overshadow her. Only his much older cousin was willing to accept him at the time he needed most, saving him from a slow death from starvation and disease. However, she bites the hand that feeds her and replaces her older cousin's medicine, causing the other woman to die. But this is destiny. Why else would she fall in love with her cousin's husband? If her cousin had not died, how could she have married a good man like her cousin's husband and de facto become the head of the family? Thus, Madam Zhang previously only had guilt in her heart but no regrets.

When she strangled herself, Madam Zhang exerted all her strength to it. Old Yu had to use all the strength in his body to slowly release his hand from his neck with great difficulty.

The old woman gasped for breath and turned to look at Old Yu. It was as if he was trying to catch his last savior. He gripped his arm and whined hysterically, “Sepupu, you can't blame me !! Just blame your husband for being such a nice guy, he is a good male model in my heart —— good-tempered, loves his family, and works hard! I'm blaming your husband for being too good, tempting me to have bad thoughts. He's a troublemaker. You must meet him, don't come to me, stay away from me !! ”

As he blabbed, his eyes swirled crazily. When he saw the blanket on the kang bed, he jumped at him and pulled it over his body. He hid himself below as he trembled in fear.

Old Yu looked at Madam Zhang in disbelief. It is said that a married couple is just a pair of separate birds, once disaster arrives, they will fly away on their own. Sure enough, Madam Zhang finally revealed her true selfish side. When it comes to saving her own skin or her husband's, she quickly chooses his and easily encourages her partner, who has been with him for over twenty years, to take the blame.

Outside the room, the two brothers, who were eavesdropping, suddenly felt someone panting behind them. They glued themselves against the wall and looked back vigilantly. To their surprise, they looked at their father, who was doing his best to endure his grief as he clenched his hands tightly. When did their father come? Did he also hear the old rat's confession?

The little golden kitten, who followed the two brothers, had a fur that stood upright in an angry rage. He waved his claws and a small golden light shimmered through the wall and into Madam Zhang's head.

“Ahhhh——” Madam Zhang flipped the blanket and a more horrified expression appeared on her face. He gripped his clothes and choked, “Don't take me away! I admit my mistakes, I admit all of that !! Give me one more chance, okay? My youngest son has not passed the prefectural exam and my daughter is getting married soon, they can't leave without mom ah !! ”

“You said your sons and daughters cannot live without a mother, but what about my daughters and sons who are only seven to eight years old ah? They can go without a mother? If I die and you take good care of my children, that will be one thing. Is it not enough that you have to make my children's lives difficult? You are a cruel woman, you even forced my son to separate from the family with just the clothes on his back. Now, you dare to ask for money from him, and you even asked for two hundred taels! ” In Madam Zhang's consciousness, her long-dead cousin accused her and criticized her with every word.

“My entire son's family is doing their best for you, but it's still not enough? Why do you still have to be stingy and greedy, do you really need to suck any remaining blood from him ah ?? Your children are children, but does that mean my sons and daughters are not children? It's okay, I'm asking you to come with me to hell tonight! Someone as evil as you, killing people and abusing their children, deserves to enter the eighteen level hell !! ”

When Madam Zhang saw the two gods of hell next to Madam Liu stringing a chain around her neck, she frantically fought again, “Old Sister, I was wrong! I was completely wrong !! I shouldn't be too selfish and kill you !! I shouldn't have harassed the entire Dahai family! I will change, I swear I will change in the future —— give me one last chance to change. I won't dare to be like this again. Don't take me away! I don't want to go to hell! ”

Streams of sweat dripped all over Madam Zhang's body and her white hair dangled wildly on her head like a bundle of straw. He resembled a malaria patient who was sweating and shivering and looked like a fish that was about to die. Although Old Yu felt very angry to learn that it was he who killed his first wife and abused his first wife's children, he was still the wife who had lived with him for over twenty years.

Her youngest daughter has postponed her marriage for three years waiting for her fiance's mourning to end. If Madam Zhang were to experience something to her right now, she was not sure that Yu Caidie would be able to maintain her engagement. When three years pass and her fiance's family cancels their agreement, her daughter's future is doomed.

Old Yu let out a long breath. More than twenty years had passed, and she could no longer remember what Madam Liu looked like anymore. Those who are still alive need to move on!

“Cuiyun ah! I know you died full of hatred, but if revenge breeds revenge, will there be an end to it all? I know you're a good-natured person. You should even help an injured puppy and successfully meet with you. This family for a while could not be without Madam Zhang, beg for mercy and let her go this time !! Don't worry, I will watch over him and I won't let him hurt the Dahai family anymore !! Please do this for the sake of our previous relationship, let her go! ” Old Yu seems to have aged in this short period of time. His voice seemed helpless and tinged with deep emotions.

Madam Zhang also loudly promised nervously, “Old Soup, let me go this time. In the future, I will live the rest of my days to atone for my crimes —— I swear to heaven, I will never cause trouble for Dahai again. I will treat Dahai and his family well.. ”.

“Quite!!” Yu Hai could not handle it anymore and kicked open the door. He rushed in and sneered at Madam Zhang, who was in a kang bed, prostrating nonstop, “I don't think I can bear to accept your goodwill! I'm not like my mother, who kept an ungrateful tiger in her midst and then was killed by that ungrateful poor fellow !! ”

Madam Zhang looked disheveled from head to toe and curled up in the corner of the kang bed. When he saw Yu Hai enter, the pupils in his eyes shrank, ‘Why is Yu Hai here? How much did he hear? ‘

Old Yu coughed and said weakly, “Dahai, he is older ..”

“How is he considered older than me? I don't have an elder who killed my mother !! I really hate, hate myself for admitting the murder of my mother as my mother for over twenty years; self-hate for letting my wife and children be persecuted without doing anything, hate myself for ignoring all the money I earned from the murder of my mother to support her children ~~ ”Yu Hai trembled as she howled her grief!

Madam Zhang felt scared, disappointed, and depressed with the expression of hatred that was in Yu Hai's eyes. In the future, she would never be able to use her identity as her stepmother to threaten Yu Hai into doing anything for her. He had become his enemy who had killed his mother. The fact that Yu Hai did not want to take revenge on him for killing his mother was already considered a miracle.
