seen you in a while, why don't you go pay her respects and ask after her well-being"Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaming hurriedly replied, "Father, son will go to grandmother's place later."Gu Jingxi nodded...Sun looked at the tightly shut door, her heart sinking.

She never would have expected her elder brother and sister-in-law to treat her this way. This morning, they were still so kind and considerate, caring about her health and telling her to rest well. But now tonight, they are speaking harshly to her and even threatening to cut her off.

Over the years, she has been very kind to her older brother and sister-in-law, often providing them with money and resources. She also helps out whenever there's anything going on in their family.

Even recently, when the sister-in-law said that Bojun was getting married and their family was short of money, afraid they couldn't afford a proper wedding, she though it was difficult, found a way. The Meng family’s property couldn’t be openly taken, otherwise it would be too obvious. So she secretly sold two pieces of jewelry and a bracelet, giving the silver to her sister-in-law.

Now that she was in trouble, her elder brother and sister-in-law turned her away at the door, only giving her a few copper coins and a sliver of silver to send her on her way.

For so many years, her wholehearted devotion has truly been wasted!

Sun Shi looked at the silver and copper coins in her hand, a sharp pang of pain pierced her heart. She let out a dry laugh, laughing until tears streamed down her face. Today, she didn't know how many times she had cried, but her heart ached even more deeply.

Faced with the humiliation before everyone, she only felt awkward. When things were exposed, she actually felt a bit relieved. Being abandoned by Mengdongyuan, she just felt that she had misjudged him and regretted it deeply.

But these things, not being trusted by her elder brother and sister-in-law, feeling rejected at the door, made her painful.

She thought her family home was the last resort, a safe haven. Unexpectedly, the safe haven refused to let her in and would directly throw her out, leaving her exposed to the wind and rain.

A cool breeze blew, and soon after rain began to fall. Although it wasn't as heavy as the downpour in the evening, it was cold and piercing, leaving Mrs. Sun feeling bone-chillingly cold.

Sun slowly stood up, tilting his head to look at the sign above the door. He stared blankly at the two characters "Sun Mansion," his hand loosening unknowingly, scattering the copper coins and silver pieces in his palm onto the ground, making a soft, crisp sound.

Then, Sun's gaze was resolute and unwavering as she stared at the tightly shut door. She suddenly surged forward, with the determination of a moth to a flame, hurling herself against it with all her might. Her temples slammed against the doorknob, sending a spray of blood onto the ground as her body slowly slid down, landing in a heap.

Sun lay on the cold ground at her doorstep, gazing at the pitch-black sky where autumn rain fell relentlessly. Her consciousness slowly faded.

In a daze, she seemed to see Zhou and Du again. Their faces were hideous, their eyes filled with hatred as they stared at her. Suddenly, she was unafraid. She whispered softly: "I'm sorry, please...please forgive my child...child..."

Before the word "child" could escape her lips, a frigid autumn wind swept past, carrying away with it her very last breath....

Here is the translated text.

The next day.

The events that transpired at the birthday banquet of Lady Meng, the elderly matriarch of Yongchang Marquis's mansion, spread throughout the capital city. Everyone knew that Mrs. Sun was a venomous woman who had an infatuation with Yongchang Marquis. She murdered Yongchang Marquis's original wife and then used various schemes to marry him. Afterward, she also plotted to kill Yongchang Marquis's eldest illegitimate son.

Several months ago, there was a ghost haunting the Yongchang marquis's residence. It was the original wife of Yongchang marquis, Zhou shi, and the biological mother of Yongchang marquis's eldest son, Du yiniang, who had returned to seek revenge from Sun shi. Even the master came to perform rituals, but he couldn't drive them away.

This is not it. Mrs. Sun had been haunted by a ghost for several months, her mental state was unstable, and when she saw Meng Jin Yao who looked similar to Mrs. Zhou, she immediately went insane.

Many people sympathized with Meng Jinyáo. She lost her mother right after birth, who was murdered by her stepmother. Later, her stepmother also took away the dowry her biological mother had left for her. If she hadn't married into Changxing Houfu and had a family to support her, it's highly unlikely that she would have been able to get her dowry back.

It is also worth mentioning that Sun was abandoned by Yongchang Bo.

Such a poisonous woman, abandoning her is the right thing to do, otherwise she will harm future generations.

Despite this, Yong Changbo did not hand over the venomous woman to the authorities. It seemed he was sparing her out of consideration for their two children together. As one of the victims, Meng Jin Yao also did not report Sun Shi to the authorities, probably because she remembered the kindness and nurturing she received over the past decade.

Everyone sighed, "What a kind girl! It's just that her life is so hard."

However, Sun eventually met her just desserts. After being divorced and sent back to the Sun family, she was scolded by her elder brother and his wife, then thrown out of the house and their relationship severed. Sun had no home to go to and her reputation was ruined. Despondent, she dashed her head against the front door of the Sun family home.

How could someone die right at their own doorstep

Many feel sorry for the Sun family, but who are they to blame After all, they raised such a daughter. She wasn't properly educated as a child and grew up to harm people, taking innocent lives, not even sparing a two-year-old.

While Mrs. Sun was being verbally abused, her daughter Meng Jin Yu was also being slandered. Everyone thought that a woman as venomous as Mrs. Sun could not possibly raise a good daughter. Who would dare to marry such a girl

As for Meng Chenxing, because he was male, the slander he received was much less than Meng Jin'yu.

-

Changxing Houfu, Weiruixuan.

Meng Jinyao slept late last night and woke up late today. The news about the Sun family had already spread far and wide, but she was still unaware of it.

When Chan'er learned that Meng Jinyao had woken up, she immediately went to tell her everything she had seen while following Sun Shi yesterday and keeping watch on her. However, when Sun Shi tried to commit suicide, Chan'er did not stop her. After all, the mistress had not said anything about protecting Sun Shi's life, and she also felt that Sun Shi deserved to die, so she let her take her own life.

Meng Jinyáo was shocked: "What are you saying Sun committed suicide"

Chan'er nodded: "That's right. Her elder brother and sister-in-law rejected her and cut off all ties with her. Her heart was filled with despair, and she committed suicide by hitting her head against the door knocker of Sun's family gate."

Meng Jinyáo fell silent for a moment, then said softly after a while: "It's better this way, so I don't have to report it to the authorities. I had thought of letting her brother-in-law and sister-in-law punish her heart, but in the end, reporting it would be a hassle now."

Chán'er again said, "Madam, do you know what people outside are saying about you"

Meng Jin Yao was taken aback for a moment, then retorted, "You wouldn't slander me, would you"

Chán'er, upon hearing this, was taken aback for a moment before smiling and saying: "Of course not. People outside say that you have a kind heart, the compassion of a Bodhisattva. You spared her because of the kindness she showed you as your foster mother, but an evil person will face retribution, and those who deserve to die will eventually meet their end."

Meng Jinyao was taken aback, her expression becoming subtly strange.

Is she kind

Actually, she's a bad person. She wants to murder Sun Shi and cause her deep emotional pain. She wants Sun Shi to be humiliated by her brother and sister-in-law, to feel the pain of ruined reputation and isolation from loved ones. Then she'll report Sun Shi to the authorities and get her executed.

Suddenly, Meng Jinyu became a bit curious and asked, "Chuan'er, are you like the heroes in storybooks who can fly over walls and eavesdrop on people's conversations without being noticed That's how you managed to hear their argument without being caught, right"

Chán'er frankly said, "This servant indeed can. Master, or rather, Temple Master, is our Marquis Lord. When he investigates cases, this servant, as a spy gathering information, must be able to scale walls and move like the wind."

Meng Jin Yao nodded and looked at her eagerly, saying: "Then can you fly one for me to see later"

Chan'er: “”

Looking into those expectant eyes, Chan'er nodded. She thought to herself: Alright, it’s not impossible. Making the master happy is also doing a good job. She was quite willing to please him; for her, flying over eaves and walls was a piece of cake.be when it comes to those young masters. Just the other day, I refused a young master my mother had chosen for me."Meng Jinyao questioned, "Why refuse""He's good in every other way, but he's a little...
