Chapter 476: A Rumor
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xue Rong’s sister could only take care of the Eldest Young Master by herself. When she was bandaging Eldest Young Master, her fingers trembled in fear and she accidentally spilled the medicinal powder on the bed.
She quickly found a rag to wipe it off. Her movements were too erratic, and she accidentally pushed aside the pillow on the Eldest Young Master’s bed and saw two letters inside.
She knew that she shouldn’t be curious, but at the same time, she also knew that she had seen what had happened today. She was afraid that Eldest Young Master wouldn’t let her off easily.
Since she was going to die anyway, what did it matter if she took a look?
At that time, the sister calmed down and carefully took out the letter.
There were two letters. One was a letter where the Xin family had contacted the Liu Country.
The other was a report from a subordinate of the Eldest Young Master regarding the situation in the capital.
Sister Xue felt that her heart was about to jump out, and cold sweat kept pouring out.
At this moment, urgent footsteps came from outside the door.
Sister Xue hurriedly stuffed the letters back in. She slid under the bed and hid inside.
It was the eldest young master’s nanny who came in. She called him anxiously a few times and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he had woken up. “The doctor will be here soon. How do you feel?”
“Nanny, under the pillow… There are two letters. Take them back and hide them.” Xin Zhiming’s breathing was weak, and his words were intermittent.
The nanny put away the two letters but did not leave immediately. When the doctor came and Young Master’s injuries stabilized a little, she left while no one was paying attention.
However, Sister Xue had been hiding under the bed. She wanted to wait until everyone left before coming out.
However, there was always someone guarding the room. The Eldest Young Master’s condition suddenly worsened in the middle of the night. His eyes and mouth were crooked, as if he was about to have a stroke.
The doctor said that the young master’s health was not good to begin with, and he had lost too much blood this time. His life was in danger, and the Bai Muzi was used up at that time.
Fortunately, on the second day, his condition improved, and there was finally a time when there was no one in the room.
Sister Xue took advantage of this time to crawl out from under the bed.
When she came out, she realized that the entire courtyard was guarded. She could not even leave the Eldest Young Master’s house.
She even vaguely heard that the maidservant who had seen the Eldest Young Master’s condition with her previously tried to escape from the Xin residence, but was captured and brought back. Now, the guards in the residence were looking for Sister Xue everywhere.
Sister Xue knew that she would not be able to escape death. She was in despair, but she was unwilling to accept her fate, so she returned to the house. She took the brush on the Eldest Young Master’s table and hid under the bed and table to write down everything she saw and heard.
This letter was for Xue Rong. At the end of the letter, she even instructed Xue Rong to think of a way to leave the Xin family. Something would happen sooner or later if the Xin family colluded with foreign countries.
After writing, she stuffed the letter into her shoes and socks. When she was found by the guards in the residence, she was beaten to death on the spot. When Xue Rong heard the news, he only saw his sister’s corpse.
Xue Rong found the letter when he was collecting her corpse. He hated the Xin family, but he was too weak to take revenge.
Then, the others in the courtyard were also sold.
Gu Yundong listened to the entire process and sighed inwardly.
Seeing the forbearance and hatred on Xue Rong’s usually expressionless face, she could only say in a low voice, “Don’t worry, I’ll avenge your sister this time.”
“Thank you, Miss.”
“So to speak, everything was taken by Young Master Xin’s nanny?” The answer was really unexpected. “This nanny is quite trusted.”
Xue Rong thought for a moment and said, “Actually, there has always been a rumor in the Xin family.”
