Chapter 88 Second Brother Goes Berserk
"Young Master, you can take medicine however you want, but you can't just say whatever you want!" Madam Li retorted sharply. "We were also saddened by Mo'er's death, but it had nothing to do with us! How can you accuse us of burning Mo'er to death without knowing the facts?"
Ye Shiting pointed to the ashes of the dilapidated house not far away, his voice dripping with sarcasm, "The eldest daughter of the Prime Minister, her status and position are beyond even your current wife's reach. Yet, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister lives next to the livestock in her own home, while the Prime Minister's wife manages the household affairs. Don't you feel ashamed to treat your eldest daughter so harshly? If you can so blatantly abuse your eldest daughter, tell me, what else wouldn't you do?"
"You...you're spouting nonsense!" Li was so angry that her face turned blue and her eyes bulged.
As the wife of the Prime Minister, even if others knew of Gu Simo's existence in their household, no one dared to utter a single word of criticism against her. Now, to have it said to her face, practically accusing her of being vicious, how could she possibly accept this?
She then looked at Gu Yong, her face full of grievance, "Master..."
However, Gu Yong, unlike his usual protectiveness, not only didn't speak up for her this time, but also suddenly slapped Li across the face, saying, "Shut up!"
The fire had already left him in a state of utter confusion.
The gift from the Crown Prince has been lost, and he doesn't know how to explain it to the Crown Prince. Now, his eldest daughter, a pawn in their game, has been burned to death in the fire, completely disrupting their plans...
If people were to spread rumors now that they mistreated their first wife's daughter...
He could ignore what others said, but these were his eldest daughter's in-laws, and trusted ministers of the emperor. If they spread these rumors, how could he, as the chief minister, save face?
He glanced at the three members of the Ye family with a gloomy face and said coldly, "Since you think my Gu family has neglected our daughter, then you may take her away!"
Rather than argue further, it's better to let them take the charred corpse away to avoid bad luck!
Ye Shijun suddenly stopped crying and pointed at Gu Yong and Li Shi, cursing, "Your Gu family abused your eldest daughter to death, you are worse than animals, you are unworthy of being subjects and unworthy of the world's respect! My wife died beside your Gu family's stable, she died with her eyes open, she will definitely come back as a vengeful ghost to take your lives!"
They had seen women who were fierce and shrewish before, but this was the first time Gu Yong and Li Shi had ever seen a man so crazy and shrewish, and he was even verbally abusing them!
The couple was so angry they felt like their hearts and lungs were about to explode!
Gu Shiya, standing to the side, was also furious on behalf of her parents. Already arrogant and domineering, she couldn't help but stand up and retort to Ye Shijun, "A bastard child born to a woman who is not presentable, and so ugly, and only you treat her like a treasure! She was burned to death, that's because she was cheap. Who told her to be ugly and not know it and still steal other people's men? God couldn't stand it and gave her such retribution!"
"Ah—" Ye Shijun roared and flew towards her, kicking her hard!
Gu Yong and Li Shi stared in horror and helplessness as their daughter's body flew into the air and then landed on the ground with a 'thud'!
Ye Shijun caught up with her, pointing at Gu Shiya with murderous intent, "I don't hit women, but I don't stop hitting animals! You say the eldest daughter of the Gu family is a bastard, then you, who also have the surname Gu, are the most inhuman bastard in the world! I forgot, you're also a slut who slept with a man before marriage! You called Mo'er a slut and stole your man, but you still have to ask me if this man wants you! Let me tell you, I'd rather marry a pig than marry you! Pigs have meat to eat, what do you have? You only have a black heart and a black liver, ptooey!"
Gu Shiya's arrogance had been completely extinguished by his kick.
A pampered young lady and a man who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years—the disparity between them is obvious to everyone.
She was barely breathing when she landed on the ground, let alone being able to stand up and talk to Ye Shijun.
"Ya'er!" Madam Li roared as she ran to her daughter's side, crying out in anguish, "Someone! Quickly, call a doctor!"
"Ye Shijun!" Gu Yong roared, unable to contain his anger any longer. "How dare you commit murder against my daughter in my own residence? Do you think I'm dead? Even if I can't teach you a lesson today, I will definitely take this to the Imperial Palace and ask the Emperor to make a decision!"
Ye Shijun crossed his arms and looked at him, his eyes filled with a ruthlessness that rivaled anyone else's. "You have failed in your duty to raise your daughter, allowing her to insult her elder sister as a slut. As her brother-in-law, shouldn't I, as her husband, teach my sister a lesson on behalf of my wife? If Lord Gu doesn't want to lose face, he can go to the Imperial Palace to file a complaint with the Emperor. I also want the Emperor to uphold justice for my Ye family. As the wife of a military family, I bear the fate of being widowed at any time. I was abused in life and will be insulted after death. Where is justice?"
"You...you..." Gu Yong was so excited that he trembled all over and almost couldn't stand up. It was only thanks to the quick thinking of the butler that he was able to support him.
No one knows what the butler whispered in his ear, but he glared viciously at the three members of the Ye family, then angrily left the backyard with the butler's help.
The other servants quickly escorted Li Shi and Gu Shiya, mother and daughter, away from the backyard.
Ye Gengxin and Ye Shiting remained silent, not because they didn't want to help, but because they were at a loss for words when they saw their second son looking like he was possessed by the King of Hell.
They believed they understood their second son's temperament. Although he was usually sharp-tongued, he knew how to read people's expressions and speak appropriately. Even when he acted rashly and impulsively, there was always a reason behind it...
It's nothing like now, where people curse each other more fiercely than when they're killing an enemy!
After the Gu family had all left, Ye Shijun took a deep breath, composed himself, and then waved to his father and elder brother, "Father, elder brother, hurry up and collect the body!"
He needs to get the funeral done as soon as possible, preferably with the body prepared and buried tomorrow.
The sooner we are buried, the sooner Mo'er can rest in peace!
……
It's located near the entrance of an alley not far from the Prime Minister's residence.
On the carriage.
Ye Shishu asked with concern, "Second Sister-in-law, what are your plans next? Are you going to change your identity and stay, or go far away?"
Gu Simo sighed towards the small window, "From childhood to adulthood, I have always been ashamed of being a daughter of the Gu family, and my greatest wish has been to one day get rid of this identity. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, it is only natural that I must leave."
"If you leave, what will happen to my second brother?" Ye Shishu asked anxiously.
“He has no romantic feelings for me.” Gu Simo raised her hand and touched her plain face, saying self-deprecatingly, “It’s because I’m not pretty enough to attract him.”
