Chapter 1650: Yang Liu’s Suicide Back ThenEditor: Henyee Translations

The journey was not long. It was only three or four streets. They arrived in a carriage not long after.

Both parties were very silent along the way. Yang Wenli wanted to say something, but Gu Yundong had an expression that said, "Don’t touch me before we confirm your identity." It made him feel angry, but he couldn’t vent it.

Fortunately, the carriage quickly stopped. Yang Wenli heaved a sigh of relief. He alighted from the carriage and looked up at the courtyard in front of him. His brows furrowed slightly.

When Lu Sheng opened the door, he saw two unfamiliar people following behind Miss and Young Master. A trace of surprise flashed across his face.

Gu Yundong instructed, then walked straight to her parents’ room.

Shao Qingyuan brought Yang Wenli and the others to the front hall. Yang Wenli looked reserved and nervous along the way, but his eyes silently sized up the scene along the way.

After reading it, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly. To be honest, this house was not even comparable to his house. It was pitifully small and not rich enough.

There weren’t many servants either. Along the way, he only saw three.

Indeed, his niece had a mountain of gold, but did not know how to make good use of it. She had used all her money to make up for her useless poor relatives. She could not even afford a bigger house.

Fortunately, she had such a personality. Otherwise, why would she let him off so easily?

When they arrived at the front hall, a servant served tea.

Yang Wenli took a sip and felt a little disgusted. The tea leaves were not very good. They tasted like from last year.

Although they were fragrant, they were not fresh enough.

Shao Qingyuan had been silently sizing him up. Seeing the contempt in his eyes, he couldn’t help but smile.

His family’s good tea and wine were naturally used to entertain worthy guests.

Regardless of whether Yang Wenli was his mother-in-law’s biological brother or not, based on what the man had done previously, he was not worth it.

Shao Qingyuan enjoyed a mouthful of this year’s new tea. After putting down the teacup, he asked, "Master Yang said that you’re my mother-in-law’s brother. Can you tell me what happened back then and why my mother-in-law was separated from you?"

Yang Wenli was actually not very satisfied with Shao Qingyuan’s attitude. He was an elder after all. It was fine if his words were a little disrespectful, but he actually spoke in a commanding tone.

However, when he thought of Shao Qingyuan’s current identity, Yang Wenli suppressed his impatience and sighed. "Something did happen back then. As for what it was, it’s related to my sister’s private matter, so I can’t say much. Anyway, she jumped off the bridge later. The river was very fast, and she was washed away on the spot."

Mother-in-law jumped off the bridge? Was this... suicide?

Shao Qingyuan’s expression turned serious. "What happened after that?"

"After that, I hired many people to rescue her and searched along the riverbank. I searched for a few days and nights, but I couldn’t find her. I didn’t give up and stayed in the local area for more than a month. I kept asking around, but I really couldn’t find any clues about her. Later, I heard a news that someone had fished up a corpse by the river. However, the corpse had been soaked in water for too long and was completely swollen. It was left in the government for a few days, but no one claimed it. Originally, the government wanted to bury her, but for some reason, those who had come into contact with the corpse were infected, so the government cremated the corpse."

As Yang Wenli spoke, he could not help but lower his head and wipe his tears. "When I went over, I heard that the person was indeed wearing the same clothes as my sister. I thought that she..."
