Chapter 30: A Strange Madness
Mrs. Yu was silent for a moment.
She had been at war for a long time in her mind, but she finally sighed softly and nodded.
"Although I was irrational and unable to control myself at the time of the illness, I often had a disorganized memory afterwards. But...... On a few occasions, when I woke up, I seemed to vaguely remember a few episodes of my illness, which seemed to be real and false, like phantoms and like the past, so that I was not sure if it was a vision or if it really happened. β
Who knew that Xie Zhao heard this, and his movements were abrupt.
Her gaze was like a torch, shooting straight at Mrs. Yu.
"βMadame mean, you yourself don't remember what happened when you were awake most of the time?"
Mrs. Yu looked at her daughter's gentle smile distressedly, a trace of pain flashed in her heart, and she said sadly:
"Yes, I just know that I sometimes have a 'confusion' disease, but I don't know that I am so disordered...... Over the years, I have really suffered as a hard-working child. She couldn't bear to embarrass me, so she was carrying it all by herself. β
Ling Or saw that Xie Zhao's expression was different, so he frowned and asked, "Xie Zhao, what's wrong?" But what is wrong with Mrs. Yu's illness? β
Xie Zhao was interrupted by him, and his gaze condensed.
She frowned and said softly, "What's more, it's just that the symptoms are different? If I am not mistaken, Madame did not fall into madness because of her depressed mind. β
Ling Or was reminded by her, and instantly understood what she meant, and frowned: "Really? β
Han Changsheng was still puzzled, and asked, "Huh? What do you mean? Don't play dumb riddles. β
Several people in the courtyard looked at Xie Zhao in unison.
Regarding Madame's illness, Yu Anan also asked anxiously, "Miss Xie, what do you mean by this?" Is my mother suffering from heart disease? So why did my mother get sick? β
Han Changsheng was also stunned, he subconsciously looked at Mrs. Yu, and then remembered her terrifying appearance......
No way?
Obviously, Mrs. Yu's previous appearance was no different from madness!
Xie Zhao's face was like frost, and he shook his head slightly.
"I used to look at my wife's illness, and I also thought that my wife was because of the death of the general, and it was always difficult to let go of my heart, so I became ill and had heart disease.
But people who are crazy in their hearts are conscious even when they are sick. They just can't control their actions and emotions, it's not amnesia. Therefore, such patients tend to be more remorseful and ashamed because they remember everything after they wake up. If there is regret and fear in the heart, it will be a vicious circle, which will lead to the disease in the heart becoming more and more serious. β
Several people in the courtyard were thoughtful, and subconsciously looked at Mrs. Yu who was stunned on the side.
Ling He frowned when he heard this: "But Mrs. Yu doesn't remember everything that happened when she got sick, so she ...... Mrs. Hsiao's illness...... Is it artificial? β
So, what is it that makes people's brains completely blank for a certain period of time, and behave like a madman?
In the next moment, a clue flashed through Ling He and Han Changsheng's minds!
They glanced at each other and said in unison, "Could it be poison?" β
Yu An'an was stunned when he heard this.
"What? Was my mother poisoned? But what poison can cause such a person? β
Xie Zhao frowned silently.
"I don't know about this, and I actually have very limited understanding of medical skills. It's just that an elder in the family is not in good health, so I have visited many famous doctors for him, and I have also read some unpopular medical books, so I will only get involved in this. β
Ling He, Mrs. Yu, and Yu Anan knew that Xie Zhao's words were obviously modest.
She may not be proficient in medical skills, but it is definitely not just a "limited understanding", otherwise how could she see that Madame's illness is different at a glance?
Xie Zhao quietly looked at Mrs. Yu Ning who was silent.
Ever since she said that Mrs. Yu seemed to have been poisoned, Mrs. Yu had always looked heavy after she was stunned.
Xie Zhao's eyes flashed with a different color, and he suddenly asked, "Madam, could it be that you have any clues about why you are suffering from your 'illness'?" β
Mrs. Yu was silent for a moment, and finally spoke in a deep voice.
"That's right...... I actually have some speculation in my mind, but when it comes to my general, I'm not sure. β
Xie Zhao, Ling Or, and Han Changsheng looked at each other silently for a moment, and then heard Mrs. Yu say in a deep voice:
"Seventeen years ago, although my general was wounded in Langya Pass, it stands to reason that it should not have been fatal, who knew that a few days later, the general actually ...... Deceased. β
She calmed down, calmed her emotions, and continued:
Later, I suspected that there might be some other hidden circumstances for the death of my general, so I searched for the past of many generals at that time, and asked whether my general had any enemies in the court, but nothing came of it.
Later, I learned that I was pregnant, pregnant with the general's posthumous son, mixed with joy and sorrow, I could only hold the coffin and temporarily return to the general's hometown Pingzhou, and never went to Zhaoge City again. β
Mrs. Yu's face turned different, and she said slowly: "But the strange thing is that on a summer night when An An was five years old, the old servant who was on duty at night in the mansion was suddenly shattered by someone and died mysteriously, and his body was still hidden in the well. β
Yu Anan exclaimed and said, "Ah! That's why the mother dismissed all the servants in the family after that? β
Mrs. Yu bowed her head lightly: "That's right, I was afraid of causing panic, so I didn't make a noise at that time." And we orphans and widows live our lives behind closed doors in Pingzhou, and it stands to reason that we will never have enmity with others.
Besides, the old servant in the porter obviously died at the hands of a martial arts master, thinking that someone was looking for something in the mansion at night, and the old servant saw it, so he was killed. β
Xie Zhao pondered: "So, Madame doesn't know what that person wanted to do when he came to the stars that night?" β
Mrs. Yu sighed lightly.
"I don't know, but I only know that if it was an ordinary thief who came for money, he would definitely not kill people so ruthlessly. Although I don't know martial arts, I also know that I can beat the skull of an adult man to pieces without alarming a single person, which is definitely not something that ordinary little snitches can do. β
Ling or his head: "So Madame is kind-hearted, thinking that the general's life and death enemies in the past have been found, and she is worried that innocent people will be implicated, so she scattered all the slaves in the family." β
Mrs. Yu nodded slowly.
"Yes, I thought that soon, there would be villains coming to the door again, so I would like to ask why they killed my general. Behold...... Since that day, there has been nothing strange about the calm in the mansion, except-"
The corners of Xie Zhao's mouth pulled up a smile without temperature, and her eyes were like starlight, insightful and insightful.
β...... Except, ma'am, you have this weird 'madness'? β
