Chapter 989: A Bold Idea
Ever since Shu Yu’s identity as the Village Chief was revealed, this figure pursed her lips and quietly retreated two steps backward. She instructed the maid beside her, "Go, fetch the Third Young Master back. Tell him something has happened at home, and make sure to clearly explain the cause and consequences in advance."
"Yes, Second Young Madam."
Ms. Mo, referred to as the Second Young Madam, tightly gripped the handkerchief in her hand. This was a rare opportunity; if she didn’t use this incident to suppress Ms. Mei, the latter would only grow more insolent in the future.
Thinking of her still-young daughter, Ms. Mo took a deep breath and turned her head to look into the courtyard.
To her surprise, Ms. Mei, whether overwhelmed or simply unwilling to face the situation, suddenly fell straight backward and fainted on the ground.
The crowd: "..." Faking it, right? Definitely faking it?
Ms. Yu regretted not fainting first; it was too late for that now.
She could only loudly shout, "Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, what’s wrong with you? You mustn’t have anything happen to you! Why are you all just standing there? Go call the doctor and hurry to carry her into the room!"
The others quickly reacted, lowered their heads, and rushed forward, pretending to be busily occupied as they swarmed to lift Ms. Mei and took her inside.
