Chapter 274: The Dead Have Long Been So
Gu Xiaoqing softly explained with sympathy for Gu Youyou, "Eldest sister, the carriage knocked grandmother and elder sister-in-law down the mountain together. Grandmother protected elder sister-in-law and died, and elder sister-in-law was traumatized and has been out of her wits, constantly crying and causing a commotion. We are also holding a funeral here and were afraid of an accident, so we sent her back to the Lei Family."
Could it really be so?
Gu Youyou gave a bitter smile.
Grandmother could protect a granddaughter-in-law who had just been married into the family, yet she never showed such concern for her own granddaughter. The grandmother who was so selfish and greedy that she wouldn’t even spare a piece of candy for her grandchildren... Was she really that great?
"Aren’t you going to kneel and admit your fault quickly!"
As Gu Youyou was contemplating, Huang Xiangwen’s disgusting voice interrupted her thoughts.
Gu Youyou’s cold gaze swept over Huang Xiangwen, and finally rested on the coffin. She slipped her hand into her sleeve, felt an object, then smiled serenely and said in a calm tone, "I’ve made myself very clear, I will kneel, but I refuse to admit any wrongdoing."
Gu Youyou’s gaze inadvertently swept outside the door and saw a familiar silhouette in the dark; she then took her hand out of her sleeve again.
