Chapter 91 Teaching the Old Madame a Lesson (2/2)
“How do you know?” Old Madame widened her already turbid eyes.This was precisely what she was thinking.Since the last time her son said those things to her, he didn’t come to see her again.With her maiden family no longer being valued, she was afraid if this continues her position as old Madame in Lan manor will no longer be stable.Then all the things she fought for all her life would be gone.So she when she saw how much her son valued this third miss, as long as she controlled this third miss then she can definitely hold Lan manor in her hands.Her nephew found this Ye Qing Poison for her.All she had to do was to give the poison to Lan You Nian.Whatever she wants to do, isn’t it easy enough to have it done?
“How do I know?Because I’ve tried it!” Lan You Nian stuffed the poison into Old Madame’s mouth.In the past, An yiniang had given Lan You Nian so many poisons, there were too many to count.Amongst them was the Ye Qing Poison.
“You…” Old Madame didn’t expect Lan You Nian to be so bold, bold enough to poison her.
“What about me?I know Old madame has the antidote so you won’t die.I don’t have the time to control you.If there’s a next time, Old Madame, do you see the person on the ground?This will be your ending!” Lan You Nian’s eyes became deep as if the haunted hell dragging old Madame in.
“I, I know, I won’t again!” Although Old Madame was in her old age, she still cherished her life.Having enjoyed her life so many years, how could she bear to die?Lan You Nian’s actions really frightened her.She was enlightened of Lan You Nian’s ruthless thoughts and means despite her young age.
“One more thing, don’t insult my mother again.This is your punishment!” Lan You Nian again stuffed a pill into Old Madame’s mouth.
“What did you give me to eat? Didn’t you say you won’t kill me?” Old Madame asked in a panic.
“Relax, it isn’t fatal.It will only make your throat hurt every night. It’s nothing!” Finished, Lan You Nian left Old Madame’s room.She had her own reason for not killing old Madame.Apart of it was because of Lan Jian Jun, but the main reason was that Lan You Nian still remembered a moment in the past when her predecessor was being bullied by Lan Ya and Lan Zhi nearly to the point of death, this old Madame must have lost her mind for she saved Lan You Nian.The predecessor’s memory of this was profound.For the sake of that little girl, she will give Old Madame one last chance, nothing more.
“Young miss!” Lan Wu glanced worriedly at the fresh blood on her young miss’s hands.
“Not my blood.Have Zhang Lin come over to handle this.Tell him to handle it cleanly!” Saying this, Lan You Nian left Old madame’s courtyard.She hoped Old Madame was smart enough to not commit more wrongs.But in her heart, she knew that some people were not that obedient.No matter what they do, what awaits them was only torment.
“Yes,” Lan Wu knew young miss was being naughty again.
——
“Young miss” Zhang Lin stood outside the pavilion.
“Cleaned up?” Lan You Nian asked.Today she was impulsive.If the fact that she casually killed someone were known by An yiniang, there would be more troubles for her in the future.There was also the Empress’s faction monitoring their every move outside the manor so they must be careful.
“This…” Zhang Lin seemed to hesitate.
“Young miss let you speak.Hurry and say it.Young miss doesn’t like subordinates who stutter!” Lan Wu stepped out of the pavilion and reprimanded Zhang Lin.
“Young miss, I went to old madame’s place to deal with matters however the scene has been cleaned up by General’s people, so subordinate returned!” Zhang Lin told the truth.
“I know, you can withdraw!” Lan You Nian’s expression did not change the slightest.So what if Lan Jian Jun knew she killed someone?She never thought about concealing her natural self and pretend to be a young miss of the boudoir.Whatever Lan Jian Jun thought was no concern of hers.
“Young miss, it seems General Lan knows!” Lan Wu said worriedly.Even if young miss appeared to not care but Lan Jian Jun was still young miss’s father.Does young miss really not care?Most of the time young miss seems indifferent, but that heart was full of scars.
“Didn’t you just say this young miss isn’t afraid of anything?Now, what are you worried about?I know you are bored.Tonight go see old Madame!” Lan You Nian went back to rest on the couch.
——
“Ah——“the hoarse cries of old Madame’s pain traveled out of the courtyard.
“What’s wrong with you Old Madame?This old slave will go find a doctor!” Wang mama fretted anxiously.She was ready to go find a doctor to take a look but was stopped by old Madame.She has been poisoned.What use was a doctor?Today her son’s guards came to deal with the corpse.They didn’t say a word.This showed that her son knew what Lan You Nian did but pretended to not know.How can she find a doctor?
“Old Madame, what should we do?” Wang mama saw old madame dig at her own throat and painfully fall onto the bed.
But old Madame did not have a voice to reply to Wang mama.The pain in her throat tormented Old Madame for two hours before it stopped.Old Madame knew Lan You Nian did not lie.Although this poison didn’t take her life, it tortured her endlessly.
“Hmph!Deserves it!” Lan Qu stood outside the room listening to Old Madame’s painful cries.Her heart burst with relish.
