Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Coming to Kill on the Doorstep
Yin Hehe worried that Duan Yongning’s original spouse might also recognize her, and cause even more trouble for Xiahou Yi.
She could only avoid them for now.
"Xiaohan, why are you here?"
A servant who happened to be delivering tea saw her and asked in surprise.
Yin Hehe pursed her lips and replied, "I heard some noise and came to have a look."
"You’d better not stay here. These people have come to cause trouble for the young master. If they see you, they’ll definitely capture you, and that could implicate the young master."
Indeed, the servant was very angry when he heard that she had dared to come and look.
Yin Hehe dared not reply and turned to leave.
"By the way, why hasn’t Master Jingmu come today? These people are storming in, shouldn’t he come to protect the old general?"
"How would I know? All these affairs are arranged by the old general."
The servant replied impatiently, and quickly, she took her tea and headed towards the front hall.
Yin Hehe watched her back, and after a long while, she finally started walking slowly towards the back courtyard.
Why didn’t Xiahou Yi let Xiahou Jingmu come over?
Wasn’t he afraid?
That’s right, he had nothing to fear. On the contrary, inviting Xiahou Jingmu over would make it seem like Xiahou Yi was showing favoritism and using his power to bully others.
Yin Hehe felt anxious and troubled as she returned to the kitchen area.
"You’ve finally come back? The young master was looking for you for a long time, and I could hardly stop him," she said.
Quite unexpectedly, after she arrived, the auntie servant started lamenting to her that Sheng Siyuan was looking for her.
Why would he look for her?
He didn’t remember her now; in front of him, they could recognize each other, but once she left, she had never seen any reaction from him.
Yin Hehe followed the aunt quickly into the kitchen.
But when she entered, she discovered a man was surrounded by the kitchen servants, with many delicious foods laid out in front of him, and live chickens, ducks... and so on nearby to entertain him.
Yet, he still expressed a very agitated mood!
"Step aside!"
He shouted fiercely, his eyes full of sinister fierceness, almost exactly the same as when he got angry in the past.
Yin Hehe paused for a moment.
Coming to her senses, she immediately moved forward, pushing past the servants to get to the man.
"I’m here, don’t be afraid, I’m fine, I’ve returned!"
She reached out and grabbed his arm tightly, speaking gently in front of him.
The man instantly calmed down.
He looked down at her, anger and anxiety clearly visible in his eyes, but after a few seconds, once he was sure Yin Hehe was safe,
his body relaxed.
Minutes later, the two left the kitchen, with Yin Hehe’s hand never leaving his, as they slowly walked towards the small courtyard where they lived.
"Husband, were you worried about me just now? Didn’t you see me? Were you really anxious about me?"
Yin Hehe hesitated for a long time before she finally turned her blushing face sideways to ask the man.
She really wanted to know because if the answer was affirmative, it would mean he had made progress.
And if that was the case, wouldn’t it also suggest that the damage in his brain might still have potential for recovery?
However, as soon as her words fell, she saw the man turn his head away,
as if he hadn’t heard a thing.
Yin Hehe’s eyes dimmed again...
But she didn’t notice that there was, in fact, a tinge of redness at the roots of the man’s ears.
Yin Hehe looked ahead and just at that moment, she unexpectedly saw the old butler hurriedly running in her direction.
"Xiaoyin, quick, get ready with the young master; I’ll get you both out of here right away."
"???"
Yin Hehe gazed at the butler, who had arrived in front of her panting, a mass of confusion in her eyes.
"What’s the matter? Uncle Butler, where are you sending us?"
"To He’anli!" the old butler announced a name she had never heard before.
He’anli?
Yet, as soon as Yin Hehe heard those three words, her mind immediately conjured images of the Xiaho Family documents she had seen in the hospital that day.
Wasn’t this place the ancestral homeland of the Xiahou Family? With all the Xiahou clan members living there now, why were they suddenly sending the two of them over as well?
"Uncle Butler, has something happened? How is the situation at the old general’s?"
Yin Hehe sensed something amiss and promptly inquired.
The Butler was initially reluctant to speak, but after seeing the sharpness in Yin Hehe’s eyes, he sighed, "Shen Weihuai brought his daughter-in-law’s body to our mansion; this old bastard, not only has he had the Shen Family dress in mourning and come knocking, but he’s also rallied the police, who will be arriving soon."
"..."
"And there’s more, Duan Jiu has come to stir trouble, insisting that yesterday you took his granddaughter away without permission, and now he’s demanding her from the old general!"
The old butler spoke with a hint of a headache.
Yin Hehe was left speechless.
Regarding the Duan Family’s side, she had already sent Jiang Jing and her daughter away yesterday evening, so there was no need to worry.
But now the most malicious part was that Shen Weihuai had actually called in the police as well.
This meant that Xiahou Yi would have to provide some explanation, no matter what.
"Uncle Butler, has the old general mentioned what he plans to do with us after sending us away, how he intends to deal with these people?"
"What other choice does he have but to deny everything? I’ve already checked, and there were no cameras where you had dinner. So long as we deny it, they have no evidence!"
The old butler scoffed as he spoke.
Yin Hehe’s eyes suddenly widened, "But they have witnesses; many people saw the young master hit that woman. If there’s that evidence, the police can make arrests!"
"So what? The young master is now mentally incapacitated, and by law, he is not responsible for his actions. If anyone’s to blame, it’s that woman for bringing disaster on herself!"
To her surprise, the old butler was aware of this as well.
Yin Hehe fell silent.
Indeed, a mentally ill person who commits violence doesn’t bear responsibility, but they likely didn’t understand that the guardian would bear this responsibility.
And if the evidence was irrefutable, the punishment would be even more severe!
Wait a moment!
All at once, Yin Hehe reacted to something, and her face changed as she stood there.
"I get it now, the person they are actually targeting is not your young master, but Xiahou Yi himself!"
Her eyes swirled with stormy waves as she deliberately articulated each word while staring at the old butler.
The old butler’s mouth fell open, and for a long time, he made no sound.
Ten minutes later, the front hall!
When Yin Hehe arrived outside the hall with the man behind her in tow and the old butler, just in time, she heard Shen Weihuai’s relentless voice from inside.
"Xiahou Yi, since you claim your son has mental issues, who can prove it?"
"Do we still need proof for this? Hasn’t it already spread throughout the Imperial City?"
Xiahou Yi, his eyes white with rage, immediately retorted angrily from his seat upon hearing this.
"Old general, it’s not enough to just spread rumors to prove he’s mentally disabled; we need evidence for everything. We understand you want to justify his actions, but you cannot just make verbal claims. My daughter-in-law died a wrongful death."
Duan Jiu, ever the troublemaker, chimed in with a taunting remark.
Suddenly, from outside, Yin Hehe only heard the old master slam his hand hard on the table and roar, "Bring the young master’s diagnosis!"
