Chapter 512 Madam Yu's Death
"What do you care who I am? Since you say that Shagen got sick because of the chicken soup I gave him, then bring him out. How am I supposed to know if you're lying to me?"
Aunt Wang chimed in, "That's right, at least we have to see the child."
Grandma Shagen was desperate for money. She looked at her youngest son and said, "Go and bring Shagen out so they can see him." Then she glared fiercely at Mu Yuhuan and said, "Let's see how you try to argue later."
Mu Yuhuan did not respond.
Soon, Sha Gen was brought out, and Mu Yuhuan stepped forward to check him out, but Sha Gen's grandmother immediately blocked her way, very wary, "What do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do? How would I know if your silly son is faking illness to extort money from me?"
"How can it be."
“After the Song family compensated me for the marriage, the Mu family spent over a hundred taels of silver on the Song family. I don’t believe you won’t be tempted. That’s why I need to get checked to make sure he’s really sick before I’m willing to compensate him.”
To get the money, Sha Gen's grandmother waved her hand and said, "Fine, fine, you check. Let's see how long you can hold out." Then she stepped aside.
Mu Yuhuan stepped forward and performed a quick check. Her brows furrowed tightly. Before she could speak, Shagen's mother rushed out and shoved Mu Yuhuan hard, saying, "Get out of my way."
Mu Yuhuan was weak and lost her balance, so she fell backward. Mu Yucheng reacted quickly and caught her from behind, his face turning cold.
"What does your Wang family want?"
Only then did Shagen's mother realize that Mu Yuhuan was now a sickly person, and the Mu family cherished her dearly. She felt a little scared, but when she thought of her son's life or death, tears streamed down her face again.
“What do I want to do? If it weren’t for her giving my silly son chicken soup, how could he be like this? If anything happens to my silly son, I’ll never forgive us.”
Mu Yuhuan turned her head and whispered in Mu Yucheng's ear. Mu Yucheng opened his mouth slightly, somewhat unsure, "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Second brother, believe me."
"Alright." Mu Yucheng stepped forward and, before the Wang family could react, grabbed Sha Gen's ankle, picked the child upside down, and started bouncing him around.
Mu Yuhuan was somewhat relieved that her second brother was tall enough, over 1.8 meters, and a young man with some strength, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to lift the chubby Shagen upside down.
"Ah, what are you doing? Let go of my son!" Silly Root's mother was the first to break down and rushed forward.
The other onlookers were dumbfounded; no one expected Mu Yucheng to lift the person upside down.
"What is the second son of the Mu family doing? Does he think Shagen isn't dead fast enough?"
"Who knows? I think Mu Yuhuan whispered something in her second brother's ear just now, which is why Mu Yucheng went up and picked up the child. Could it be revenge?"
There were all sorts of opinions, but they all had one thing in common: they all disagreed with Mu Yucheng's approach.
On the other side, the Wang family rushed over like madmen, all chasing after Mu Yucheng. Mu Yucheng, carrying Shagen in one hand, ran very fast, circling around the Wang family's courtyard.
The Wang family is large, and some members are quick-witted. When they couldn't catch Mu Yucheng, they immediately grabbed Mu Yuhuan and threatened her, "Mu Yucheng, let go of Shagen, or I'll kill your sister."
Mu Yucheng stopped, his eyes red with anger, and said, "Let go."
"Let my nephew go."
Just as Mu Yucheng was about to let go, Mu Yuhuan shook her head at him.
She believed that the Wang family wouldn't dare to do anything to her, and that the Wang family couldn't withstand Mu's father's anger. But if the contents of Sha Gen's stomach couldn't be expelled, the child would truly be gone.
A stalemate ensued.
Suddenly, a "vomit..." sound came. Mu Yucheng reacted the fastest and put Shagen on the ground. Without caring about anything else, he ran to Mu Yuhuan in a few steps and kicked Wang's youngest son, who hadn't even reacted yet, away.
"You dare hurt my sister? You'll regret it!"
As Mu Yucheng spoke, he rushed over and, as soon as the other person fell to the ground, sat on him and began to hit him with both hands.
The courtyard was in complete chaos in no time.
Some people came to stop Mu Yucheng, while others were paying attention to Sha Gen's situation.
All that could be seen was chunks of undigested chicken spitting out of Sha Gen's mouth, showing how quickly he ate and how much he vomited—enough to fill a bowl…
Mu Yuhuan estimated that it could fit three large bowls.
An eight or nine-year-old child eating so much, and the chicken didn't seem very well cooked; you could see some of the meat was undercooked. No wonder he went into shock.
After Mu Yucheng vented his anger, the Wang family members came over and stopped him.
Grandma Shagen was so angry that she slapped her thigh and sat down in the yard. "Quick, go and invite the village chief over. If the Mu family doesn't give us an explanation today, I'll hang myself at their doorstep."
Mu Yuhuan didn't say anything. Seeing that her second brother was still angry, she advised, "Second brother, it's almost time to eat. If Grandpa doesn't see us when he gets home, he'll be worried. Why don't you go back and check? There are many people here, so I'm fine."
"No, I'll stay here with you." Mu Yucheng couldn't leave. In this situation, if he left, something would happen to his little sister, so it was better to protect her.
Seeing the brother and sister so busy, Aunt Wang said, "I'll go take a look."
Some villagers disliked the Mu siblings and deliberately moved to the side, unwilling to be near them. Others sensed something was wrong and didn't move.
Mu Yucheng asked, "Little sister, are you tired? I'll go get a stool for you to sit down."
Mu Yuhuan was about to say no, but then... someone brought over a stool, "Brother Cheng, let your little sister sit down."
She turned around and saw Chengfeng, a young man who was usually very close to her second brother, smiling shyly. When he saw her looking over, he pointed to the stool and said, "Little sister, please sit down."
"Not bad," Mu Yucheng praised, helping Mu Yuhuan sit down.
The Wang family lived in the center of the village, not far from the village chief's house, and they arrived shortly afterward.
When Shagen's grandmother saw the village chief coming, she cried even louder, "Village chief, you have to stand up for our family! The Mu family is bullying the dead! They're trying to kill us!"
The village chief glanced at them with pity. The Mu family was not to be trifled with, and the Wang family was no pushover either.
"what happened?"
“Mu Yuhuan had no good intentions. She made chicken soup for my son, Shagen, which led to the child’s life being uncertain. When I went to question them, they didn’t believe me and insisted on coming to my house to see for themselves. When they saw the child, Mu Yuhuan picked him up backwards.”
“What was he doing? He wanted to kill our idiot son! When our family tried to stop him, he beat my son Baocheng. Look at the way he beat Baocheng! Is this something a human being would do?”
"Village chief, you have to stand up for our family! We're being bullied to death! Old man, you died so young! If you know this in the afterlife, open your eyes and punish these evil people!"
The village chief raised his hand and said, "Alright, stop crying, I'll handle it."
When Sha Gen stopped crying, Mu Yuhuan felt much more at peace.
The village chief pointed at Mu Yuhuan and said, "Yuhuan, you tell us, how could chicken soup make a child sick?"
