623: Chapter 623: Poisoning (7)_1 623: Chapter 623: Poisoning (7)_1 The farce finally ended, and the people from the old Yang Family estate had all departed, but it didnât affect the mood of the villagers at all, in fact, it gave them even more to talk about.
Of course, while no one mentioned it, there was an increased sense of respect and fear for Yang Ruxin in their hearts.
âWhere is Uncle Xiaowu?â Yang Ruxin suddenly remembered Yang Baixiang.
âI saw him earlier helping to chop meat.â Sanni frowned, âBut after that, I didnât see him anymore.â
âUncle Xiaowu said he felt unwell and went back first,â Sini suddenly spoke up, âHe asked me to tell you while big sister was busy tending to Aunt Hehua, but IâŠ
I forgotâŠâ she said, pouting and looking embarrassed, which made her seem particularly naive and cute.
Yang Ruxin smiled, âNo matter.â But inwardly, she felt a bit worried and turned to Sanni, âKeep an eye on the little ones, Iâm going to check on Uncle Wu.â Yang Baixiang was not a delicate person; if he wasnât really feeling unwell, he probably wouldnât have left.
âIâll go with you,â Gu Yao said, hurrying to follow.
Yang Ruxin didnât say a word, hurrying to the old estate.
At that time, Yang Peili and the others had just entered the courtyard.
Seeing her come in afterwards made them shiver.
Yang Ruxin didnât even glance at those people, going straight to knock on Yang Baixiangâs door, but when no one answered after a long time, she frowned, âUncle Wu, itâs XinxinâŠâ
But no matter how long she called, there was no response.
Just as Yang Ruxin was about to kick down the door, a thud suddenly came from within the room, likely the sound of someone falling to the ground.
Her expression changed, and she kicked the door open, only to see Yang Baixiang convulsing on the floor, already unconscious, and probably had fallen down after hearing Yang Ruxinâs voice.
âUncle WuâŠâ Yang Ruxin gasped, quickly checking on him and finding his limbs cold.
She immediately stuffed a medicine pill into Yang Baixiangâs mouth, then looked up at Gu Yao, âUncle Wu has been poisonedâŠâ
Hearing this, Gu Yao didnât waste words, bending down to lift Yang Baixiang and hurried out.
The people in the courtyard heard everything clearly and felt a lurch in their hearts.
Seeing Gu Yao carrying the convulsing Yang Baixiang out, they stepped back many paces in haste.
Yang Ruxin followed, sweeping her gaze over Yang Peili, âGet the silver.
Uncle needs to be treated.â
âThere isnât anyâŠâ
âGo get it!â But Yang Peili slapped her.
Mrs.
Yang Anshi, in her habitual defiance, glared at Yang Peili only to find him raising his hand again.
This truly frightened herâthis man was serious about disciplining her.
She rushed into the room and threw out a few pieces of silver, âThatâs all there isâŠâ
Yang Ruxin caught the silver in mid-air, âIf itâs not enough, I will come back.â She then turned and hurried away.
âAs if she were collecting a debtâŠâ Mrs.
Yang An gasped after Yang Ruxin left.
âShut your mouth, I havenât even settled accounts with you yetâŠâ Yang Peili glared at Mrs.
Yang Anshi.
âSettle then, come on, settle!
Yang Peili, do you think youâre something special?
How much have I suffered following you all these years?
You want to divorce me now?
Do itâŠâ Mrs.
Yang Anshi suddenly lunged forward in a frenzy, tearing at Yang Peili, âYouâre no man if you donât divorce me todayâŠâ
âUnreasonable,â Yang Peili pushed Mrs.
Yang Anshi away and turned to go inside.
Mrs.
Yang Anshi followed him in, continuing the argument and the commotion.
The house was in utter chaos.
