Quick Wear: BE cannon fodder does not follow the routine

Chapter 683 Marrying the Wrong Man or the Right One? (4)

Yang recognized who the robe belonged to at a glance, and her hands were shaking as she picked up the cloth.

"how come?"

"Aunt, this was found by the river. It was hanging on a dead branch in the water. Otherwise, we wouldn't have known..." Gu Fenghuan didn't say the rest of the words, but everyone present heard it clearly.

Gu Erfang could no longer hold back, and stood in front of his wife and children, shouting, "Xiaoxi is clearly at home, why are you guys cursing her to death for no reason?"

"That's right, Dad. They bullied my sister."

Yang was also quite angry and said, "Xiao Xi is not feeling well today and has caught a cold. My father just gave her some medicine, but you guys are here!"

Hearing Gu Erfang and his wife say that Gu Yuxi was still alive, Gu Fenghuan's face suddenly changed, and he forced a smile and said, "Uncle, are you kidding? Sister Xiaoxi is obviously..."

"Xiao Huan, uncle has always thought you are a good child, but you should never joke about this kind of thing and make the family unhappy."

"No, I didn't!"

A man asked: "Since Xiaoxi is at home, why doesn't she come out when so many of us are here?"

"Brother Zhicheng, my sister is sick. She feels uncomfortable all over and feels drowsy. How can she get out?" Gu Cixin explained to the man.

"It's all because of little sister Xiaoxi who's looking for trouble. She made us worry for nothing."

The old man sitting at the bottom of the hall was also angry, breathing heavily through his nose, and said, "Shut up, see if anyone is still here, and lead the way."

The Gu Erfang couple had some resentment in their hearts, but they still led the way and brought the people to Gu Yuxi's boudoir.

Before the door was opened, a woman in thin clothes, pale face, weak body and unsteady steps was seen opening the door with difficulty.

"Cough, cough, cough..." The woman coughed for a while, and her face looked even uglier.

"Xi'er!" Yang hurried forward to support her daughter who was about to fall to the ground.

Gu Yuxi leaned against his mother Yang, walked in front of Gu Fenghuan and the others, and bowed: "Meet Grandpa, Uncle, Aunt, Big Cousin and Big Cousin."

Seeing that the man was still alive and looked sick, Grandpa Gu was even more unhappy. He did not respond to the other party and said dissatisfiedly: "He is not dead yet, and he is reluctant to respond when I call him."

Yang immediately defended him: "Dad, Xiaoxi is not feeling well. How can she go out to meet people like this? If you are accidentally infected with the disease, it will be Xiaoxi's fault."

"Yes, Dad. What else can Xiaoxi do in her current state? You mobilized a large number of people to come to our place in the middle of the night to look for someone. The people behind this must have bad intentions."

Yang mentioned it casually, and the scene was filled with suspicion for a moment. The old man looked at his eldest granddaughter next to him with displeasure.

Gu Fenghuan was also nervous as she was being watched by so many pairs of eyes. Now she had to make up a story, otherwise she would become the target of public criticism.

Gu Yuxi also said seriously: "Grandpa, it's not easy for you to come here so late at night, let's forget it today. If someone keeps joking like this, your body won't be able to withstand it."

Seeing the dead man still standing in front of him, Gu Fenghuan was shocked. He thought that the five killers had failed, but he quickly returned to normal.

She quickly stepped forward and held Gu Yuxi's arm, her expression very nervous and concerned, and said: "Xiaoxi sister, you are really something. Since you are at home, why don't you come out earlier? You made us argue with uncle and aunt for a while."

Gu Yuxi felt that Gu Fenghuan was really good at turning the tables. It was clearly her who wanted to kill people and cover up the truth, but now she was blaming herself like this.

She said with difficulty: "Cousin, I went out with you today. After we separated, I felt dizzy and vomited continuously. After I returned home, I had a high fever all the time."

Gu Fenghuan put her hand on Gu Yuxi's head. It was indeed terribly hot. She asked tentatively: "Xiaoxi, did you see any strange people today?"

Gu Yuxi shook her head and said, "No." She turned her eyes and suddenly pointed at the outer robe and said, "Cousin, I seem to have done something wrong. I should have listened to Miss Cen Qingqing and the others and not lent you the outer robe. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been infected with the disease. But I'm glad that you're okay as your younger sister."

Gu Fenghuan didn't expect Gu Yuxi to say this suddenly. She was about to say "You are confused", but Gu Yuxi continued: "Why are my clothes so wet? Did you fall into the water, cousin? Although it is hot, you can't do anything rash. Are you okay, cousin?"

Gu Cixin asked: "Sister, did you really lend this dress to your cousin?"

"Yes, Xiaoxi, you can't talk nonsense about this. After all, it concerns your cousin's innocence. After all, people who talk nonsense are not liked by others." Yang glared at Gu Fenghuan with increasing disgust.

Gu Fenghuan's mother was not to be outdone and said, "It is still unclear who is right and who is wrong. Perhaps your daughter deliberately created the illusion of falling into the water, causing everyone to make a wasted trip."

"Ahem... Aunt, do you miss me like this? Who fell into the water? Did something serious happen at home?"

"No, Xiaoxi! I was worried about your safety. I thought you fell into the water. After all..."

"What?" Gu Yuxi interrupted Gu Fenghuan with an innocent look.

Yang added: "After all, your eldest cousin said that you fell into the water, and there is your outer robe as evidence. Your grandfather and others rushed here to ask your parents to collect your body."

Gu Yuxi's face was gloomy. He looked at Gu Fenghuan in disbelief and complained, "Cousin, why are you so ignorant? You are already an adult. If outsiders knew that you deceived your family, how would our family face others?"

"No, Xiaoxi, this outer robe is clearly..."

"Yes, I clearly lent it to you. County Magistrate Cen's daughter and others were all here, but why did you spread rumors that I fell into the water? I... cough cough cough!"

Gu Yuxi coughed violently, with tears rolling down the corners of her eyes, making people feel pitiful just by looking at her.

Gu Fenghuan was staring at her with so many suspicious eyes and she had no way of saying anything. She shook Gu Yuxi's arm but was pushed away by Yang.

Yang said angrily, "Huanhuan, you are well-behaved and sensible, why are you so foolish today, causing everyone's hard work to be in vain? Isn't this just a replay of the stupid trick of lighting a beacon to trick the princes in your own home?"

"Yes, niece, you can't joke like this in the future."

The words of the Gu Erfang couple made the whole thing clear: everything was directed and acted by Gu Fenghuan herself!

The old man clenched his fists and stared at Gu Fenghuan and asked: "Xiaohuan, is what they said true?"

"Eunuch, Huan'er is the most sensible one. You must trust her. Maybe someone from the second house did this on purpose."

"Ahem...Aunt, I have been bedridden since I came back. My parents are busy with the shop, and my younger brother Xin has to go to school. I don't have any maids. Do you doubt that our second room has so much free time?"
