Chapter 1542: Really SickEditor: Henyee Translations

Luo Qi looked at the paper bag in her hand in a daze. After a while, she raised her head. There was a hint of helplessness in her teary eyes.

After a long time, she said softly, "Thank you."

Gu Yundong patted her head. "Go."

The little girl carefully wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and patted her face. Then, she tried her best to squeeze out a smile before holding the paper bag and walking into the house.

Gu Yundong looked in through the window and saw her tiptoe to the bed.

Gu Yuwen didn’t seem to be sleeping well. She woke up again after a while.

The little girl opened the paper bag and fed her a piece. "Mother, Sister Gu said that she bought these pastries from the capital. Try them. Are they the same as the ones you ate when you were young? I heard they’re delicious. You..."

This might be the last time her mother tasted the food of her hometown. She would never have the chance to do so again.

Gu Yuwen lowered her eyes and took a bite. She smiled and said, "Yes, it’s the same as when I was young. It’s really delicious. Try it too."

Actually, how could she remember the taste of the pastries she had eaten when she was young? She could not remember it anymore.

However, the food in front of her was really, really delicious. It was a form of satisfaction to be able to eat a piece before death.

She reached out and touched the little girl’s head, and her smile became bright.

Gu Yundong looked outside for a moment and sighed slightly.

Not long after, Luo Qi came out again.

Gu Yundong said to her, "Can you take me to the place where you buried the meat?"

"Okay." Although Luo Qi found it strange, she still nodded obediently and led her out of the courtyard.

She brought Gu Yundong to the hillside where the meat had been buried and dug up the soil again.

"Sister Gu, why are you looking at this meat?"

Gu Yundong took out a silver needle from her bag and tested it on the meat.

After a while, the silver needle turned black.

Luo Qi pursed her lips and was about to bury the soil again. "She really wanted to kill us."

Gu Yundong frowned. This Mrs. Jiang... was really sick.

She stopped Luo Qi from burying the meat. She took out all the meat and put it in a cloth bag along with the surrounding soil. Then, she wrapped it up and took it away.

The meat was poisonous, and the soil was not deep. It was easy for dogs to dig it out. At that time, it might not be just dogs who would eat it. There were countless people living in poverty on this island. If some young children who did not know anything saw the meat, they might secretly eat it.

Gu Yundong told Luo Qi about it, and the latter was enlightened. She exhaled in fear. "I didn’t expect this. Fortunately, Sister Gu, you took out the meat."

Gu Yundong tidied up the cloth bag and walked back.

"Go back and take care of your mother first. I’ll come back tomorrow to see you. I still have to go to the Gu family to see how things are going."

"Alright, then I’ll go back first." Luo Qi said goodbye to Gu Yundong and hurried home. She wanted to spend more time with her mother.

Gu Yundong walked towards the Gu family’s house. At this moment, more than half of the people were gathered at the entrance of the Gu family’s house, pointing and talking.

Gu Yundong finally squeezed through the crowd and entered the courtyard. She immediately saw Shao Qingyuan standing at the side.

She quickly moved over and asked softly, "What’s going on?"

"The Gu family originally wanted to beat Mrs. Jiang to death. The neighbors heard the commotion and called the soldiers in charge of this area over."

Gu Yundong looked up and saw two soldiers in the courtyard.
