After a while, two women came in. Madam Liu immediately ordered them and Granny Yue to carry Jiang Heng's body. It was Granny Yue's first time carrying a dead body and she was so scared that she trembled all over. "Madam, can I not carry it? I don't dare. I'm afraid that Jiang Heng will turn into a malicious spirit and come after me."
"You didn't kill him. What are you afraid of?" Madam Liu quickly shut her mouth after saying that.
Did this mean that Jiang Heng would come after her instead of Granny Yue?
She quickly shook her head. "Hurry up and do things quickly. If anyone finds out, none of you will live!"
Everyone was in the same boat. Of course, they didn't want anything to happen, so they quickly carried Jiang Heng and left.
However, Jiang Heng was too heavy. Granny Yue and the others spent a lot of effort to carry him to the kitchen backyard.
After carrying him to the kitchen backyard, an old woman opened a bucket filled with swill. She pinched her nose and said disdainfully, "Put him in the swill bucket to avoid being discovered."
Granny Yue was stunned. "This bucket is full of swill. If we put him in, the swill will flow out. Moreover, he's already dead. It's too insulting to put him in the swill bucket. Why don't we put him in this empty bucket? "
"You're right. Let's empty the bucket. If we insult his body, we'll be finished if he comes after us," the old woman said.
In order not to be killed by Jiang Heng, the old maids put his body into an empty slop bucket and covered it with a lot of rotten vegetable leaves. Then, they closed the lid and pushed the small cart, ready to set off.
Granny Yue walked at the front. She felt guilty, but she still pretended to be calm. When she was with Granny Zhang in the past, no matter how ruthless she was, she had never killed anyone.
Her mental fortitude was not strong enough, so she was very nervous now.
"Stop, where are you going?" When they pushed the cart to the entrance of the courtyard, a guard stood out and said coldly.
"Brother, there's too much swill in our kitchen, so we're going to push it out to the farmers and let them transport it to the fields to fertilize it so that it won't go to waste," Granny Yue said nervously.
"Why have you accumulated so much swill without pouring it out?" The guard smelled the sour stench and quickly fanned his nose with his hand.
"Didn't His Highness chase away the three maids who were transporting the swill? At that time, they hadn't bought the new staff yet, so they had accumulated so many. However, don't worry. As long as we have enough manpower, we will definitely not accumulate so much in the future. We will definitely pour it out on time every day. "As Granny Yue spoke, her forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"Oh, let me check." After the guard finished speaking, he went forward to check as if it was a routine procedure.
He walked to the first bucket of swill, opened the lid, and looked inside. He even poked the inside with his sword. This time, the old women were so scared that their faces turned green.
This was especially so for Granny Yue. She had thought that the guard would only check casually. She did not expect him to check so carefully and even poke her with a sword.
At that time, he would definitely be exposed.
Granny Yue's body immediately began to tremble uncontrollably. Her forehead was covered in cold sweat and her neck was cold. She was so scared that even her legs began to tremble.
Soon, the guard finished checking the four buckets in front of him. He walked to the last bucket and opened the lid. He saw that there were many rotten vegetable leaves on it.
He was about to take a closer look and pull out his sword to poke it when suddenly, Nangong Rou's painful voice came from the door of the room. "Ah, my stomach hurts. It seems to be red again. Granny Yue, quickly pour out the swill and call Doctor Li over."
