Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

Chapter 520: Cuckolded? Caught in the act

Two days later, the old lady's condition had stabilized and she was slowly recovering, and everyone relaxed their vigilance.

In Aunt Ru's yard, late at night, Qiu Zhizhong came again.

"Ruer, how is it going?"

"Alas, that old woman was lucky enough to be rescued in time by that bitch from the countryside. However, they didn't realize that it was me who did it." Aunt Ru said angrily.

"It's okay. If it doesn't work the first time, we can try again. If it didn't work last time, it will definitely work this time."

"Brother Zhong, isn't it too risky? I feel a little uneasy." Aunt Ru said.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. People who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters. For our future, this little thing doesn't matter. In order to prevent any further complications, we should act as soon as possible." Qiu Zhizhong comforted.

"Then I'll find another chance to try. Don't come over these days. Shen Wenting came here today and said he would come to my yard often in the future."

"Then I won't be able to see you for some time. What should I do if I miss you?" Qiu Zhizhong's hands wandered restlessly on her body.

"Then let me serve you well today. After a few days, when things are done, I will let Chan'er inform you." Aunt Ru said coquettishly. After a while, the only sound in the room was low panting.

On the courtyard wall, a dark shadow left.

The next day, Shen Wenting called everyone in the mansion and said that he would leave the mansion again in a few days. He was ordered by the emperor to go on a long journey to handle some matters. He asked everyone in the mansion to take good care of the old lady.

Aunt Ru was secretly delighted. It seemed that God was helping her. This damn old woman let her escape last time, but this time, it might not be so easy.

After Shen Wenting left, Aunt Ru went to the old lady's courtyard to serve as usual. When it was time for dinner, she sent the nanny away, and when no one was around, she added the medicine into the bowl. When she was about to feed it to the old lady, the nanny suddenly came back.

"Aunt Ru, I just walked out of the yard, and someone from the lady's yard came over and asked you to go over. Let me feed the old lady!" After the nanny said this, she took the bowl from her hand.

"What does Madam want to see me for?" Aunt Ru was puzzled. Yan Huan and her had never gotten along well, so what could he possibly want from her? But after all, she was the mistress of the mansion, so she couldn't just refuse to go when she was called.

"I don't know either. You should go quickly. The maid is still waiting outside the yard. I'm here with the old lady!" said the nanny.

"Okay, thank you, Madam. I'll be back soon." Aunt Ru glanced at the porridge in the bowl and nodded.

Then she went to Yan Huan's yard. Yan Huan told her that she had worked hard to take care of the old lady recently and had prepared a lot of good things for her. This concern caught Runiang off guard, but she did not ask much. She took the things and returned to the yard. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She put down the things and went to the old lady's yard. She saw the nanny coming out with an empty bowl, and then she felt relieved.

At night, she was looking at the things Yan Huan gave her in the yard. No wonder the master liked her so much. Who wouldn’t love so many good things!

"Aunt, there's news over there that the old lady is not feeling well again." Chan'er said beside her.

"Okay, I understand. You go down first." It seems that the old lady ate the food. There was a fierce look in Aunt Ru's eyes. This time, the old woman's luck might not be so good.

The next day, everyone in the mansion knew that the old lady was ill, and the doctors were helpless. Runiang thought that this time it would be foolproof. She went to see the old lady, who was lying in bed very weak. She was afraid that she might not make it. Shen Wenting was not in the mansion now, and when he came back, he could only mourn for the old lady. So she felt relieved and asked Chan'er to send a message to Qiu Zhizhong, asking him to come.

In the evening, Qiu Zhizhong came again as expected.

"Brother Zhong, it's done." Aunt Ru said happily.

"Is the old woman dead?"

"Not yet, but soon. The doctor came and said there was no hope. I went over and it looked like he wouldn't live long either."

"Haha, then you don't have to worry about it anymore."

"Ah."

"Shen Wenting is not in the mansion?"

"He said that the emperor had given him an errand and asked him to leave the city. He might not be able to come back for a while."

"To be cautious these days, Ru'er, you should be careful."

"Don't leave tonight, stay with me." Shen Wenting is not here anyway.

"Okay, I won't leave."

The two were whispering to each other in the room when suddenly the door was kicked open and the maid Chan'er was thrown into the room with her mouth gagged. The two people on the bed were startled and hurriedly put on their clothes.

After seeing the person coming, she was so scared that she was shaking like a sieve: "Master... Master... why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that you had cheated on me! Runiang, Runiang, I treated you well, why did you do such a thing!" Shen Wenting was furious and had his men drag Runiang and Qiu Zhizhong off the bed in disheveled clothes. Unexpectedly, Qiu Zhizhong escaped from Shen Wenting's hands when they were not paying attention. Shen Wenting sent his men to chase her but to no avail, so he vented his anger on Runiang.

"Master, listen to me... I..." Aunt Ru wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to say it. Why did he come back at this time? Didn't he go out of town?

It turned out that the emperor did not ask Shen Wenting to do anything at all, and he had someone keep an eye on Runiang that day. Unexpectedly, his people saw a man entering Runiang's yard at night. He was furious when he heard it, and wanted to come over to catch the adulterer and beat them to death on the spot, but when he thought of the fact that someone had poisoned the old lady, he endured it first and then designed this arrangement.

"What else do you have to say, you whore? How dare you bring your adulterer into the house!" Shen Wenting went up and slapped Runiang twice on the face. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He kicked her to the ground, then used the family punishment to beat her until she was covered with bruises.

"Ah! Master, I was wrong! Please, stop hitting me!" Ru Niang's wailing voice was heard in the silent night.

"Shut up! Do you want to wake up everyone in the Shen Mansion and let them see the ugly thing you did?!" Shen Wenting glared at her.

"It's all your fault! I've been with you for so many years, and I've dedicated most of my best years to you, but how have you treated me? I've been dispensable to you, and you've never cared about my feelings. I've been living in darkness in Chui Liu Lane for so many years! I finally made it through, and thought I'd be fine once I got into the mansion, but you just want to send me away with the position of a concubine! You even let me stay alone in an empty room every day, Shen Wenting! I've had enough! If you had a little conscience, treated me better and treated me as a family member, I wouldn't do such a thing." Runiang shouted at the top of her lungs.
