I have been farming since I crossed over.

Chapter 199 Death of illness

These words were like sharp arrows, piercing straight into Li's heart, making her gasp.

At the same time, a faint fragrance wafted into the air. This strange fragrance spread in the air, becoming more and more weird and mysterious.

Li stared blankly at the words before her, unable to react for a moment. Her mind went blank, unable to comprehend why her son would write such heartless words.

At that moment, a sudden, sharp pain shot through her chest, rapidly spreading throughout her body. Li felt breathing becoming increasingly difficult, each breath draining her of energy. She strained her eyes, trying to see everything around her, but her vision gradually blurred.

In the end, Li's body fell heavily backwards, her eyes still wide open, as if she was unwilling to believe what was happening before her eyes until her death.

That once beautiful face was distorted by pain and shock, presenting a creepy expression. And so, Li left this world with a heart full of doubts and resentment, leaving behind an unread letter and a mystery that will never be solved.

Father Lu looked at Lao Jiu, his eyes full of confusion. There were still many things he hadn't figured out. How could Li die?

Lu Changdong looked at his father and said, "Father, my second brother and I discovered this three years ago, so we sent someone to keep an eye on her. We've kept all of her intercepted letters, including the letters we delivered for her, which are in duplicate. We also have two copies of the letters we replied to her. I'll give them all to you later. Please take a look at them together. These things really have nothing to do with Thirteen."

"It was probably when we just arrived at Qianhuang Village. A few days later, Thirteen found Second Brother, and Second Brother told Thirteen very clearly that if he felt that he could touch the Li family, he should leave it to me. He didn't want Thirteen to bear this crime." After Lu Changdong finished speaking, he walked out with his hunched figure.

Father Lu took a deep breath, then slowly shook his head, thinking to himself: "What on earth am I thinking about? These are the children I have seen grow up. How could I have such a ridiculous idea?" While blaming himself, he tried hard to drive those distracting thoughts out of his mind.

After a while, Father Lu calmed down and said, "Mr. Lu, please send Qin back to her room! Take care of everything. Then go get the things from Old Nine. Remember, send them directly to my yard after you get them. Also, don't forget to send someone to notify Old Ten and tell him that his aunt unfortunately passed away due to illness. Just let him know about this after dinner tonight." After that, Father Lu raised his foot and walked out of Thirteen's yard with heavy steps.

As he walked along the road, Father Lu couldn't help but secretly feel lucky. Fortunately, Thirteen didn't usually live here. Otherwise, if such an ominous thing happened here, wouldn't it have a bad impact on Thirteen? Just thinking about it makes people feel a little unlucky. Thinking of this, Father Lu quickened his pace, wanting to leave this place quickly.

Aunt Liu in the room was trembling with fear, beads of sweat rolling down her forehead, soaking her thin clothes. Just now, she had witnessed the thrilling conversation between Qin and Lu's father, and had also seen the whole room where Qin lived.

At first, she didn't think too much about it. However, when Lu Da mercilessly closed her door and casually threw an unknown object into it, an ominous premonition suddenly came to her mind - Qin was probably doomed!

Thinking of this, Aunt Liu's heart suddenly sank, and she couldn't help but start to worry about her own fate. Originally, she sat quietly in the house, anxiously waiting for Lu Da to come and deal with her, but who knew that after a long time, Lu Da still didn't show up.

When she finally mustered up the courage to quietly open a crack in the door and peek outside, she was surprised to find that Mr. Lu was standing straight in the hall like a sculpture, not moving at all.

Through the narrow crack of the door, Aunt Liu watched everything happening outside in horror. She watched helplessly as Li was brutally murdered and died. The whole process was like a terrible nightmare.

In reality, Aunt Liu knew more or less about many things going on in the mansion. Unfortunately, her information was incomplete and contained many unclear details.

Moreover, Guan had been personally served and cared for by her since she was a child, and the two had grown up together, becoming as close as sisters. Therefore, although Aunt Liu knew some of the inside stories about Li and Qin, out of her deep affection for Guan, she chose to remain silent, neither colluding with them nor revealing any of these secrets to Guan.

Guan must have sensed something was wrong! Because of this, the relationship between her and me gradually became distant. Fortunately, I never harbored any intention to hurt others. Perhaps it was this kindness that allowed me to survive safely until now!

At this moment, Liu was sitting quietly to one side, while on the other side, there was a great deal of activity. It turned out that the Zheng family had come as scheduled, gathering in Qianhuang Village to enjoy a sumptuous meal with their own family members.

Lu Jintang stared silently at his father's expressionless face, then exchanged glances with his grandfather. A hint of disappointment slipped through their eyes. Clearly, things weren't going as smoothly as they'd hoped.

At the same time, Aunt Liu was alone in the room, her thoughts running wild like a wild horse.

She was lost in thought, her thoughts wandering about all sorts of things. Time passed minute by minute, and after an unknown amount of time, there was finally a slight noise—the gate was slowly pushed open, and then the sound of hurried, chaotic footsteps reached Aunt Liu's ears from afar.

Aunt Liu's heart trembled suddenly, and an ominous premonition instantly came to her mind. She thought to herself that nothing good might be waiting for her next.

However, after careful consideration and speculation, she felt that this matter should not endanger her life. Thinking of this, she felt a little more at ease and did not feel so scary.

At this moment, there was a creaking sound, and the gate was slowly pushed open. Then a middle-aged woman with a slightly frail figure walked in quickly, calling out loudly as she walked: "Auntie, Auntie, are you in the room?"

Liu had been sitting in the room lost in thought. When she heard this voice that was so familiar, the one she had been thinking about day and night, she felt like she had been electrocuted. She jumped up, quickly crossed the threshold in two steps, rushed out of the room and responded, "I'm here!"

When the woman saw Liu come out, she hurried forward and said anxiously, "Auntie, my father just announced in front of the whole family that all the concubines in our house have died of illness."
