Chapter 298 Why does the mother force Yi Hui just because she doesn’t like it?

Madam Li's eyelids twitched, and she said, "Madam Ju, go back with Yulan first."

A granddaughter is still useful and cannot be driven out of the house.

Otherwise, if the Hu family insists on coming to Shouchunyuan to seek justice, where will she put her face? She absolutely cannot let this happen.

Li Yulan left in tears.

There were only three people left in the room. The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were not getting along, and they were all waiting for the Marquis to speak.

Li Ningwan said, "I beat Prince Chang."

This one sentence caused a huge stir in the room, and they asked almost in unison.

Yi Hui took a deep breath, pinched his sleeve and asked, "Are you hurt?"

"Is Prince Chang seriously injured?" asked Mrs. Li.

Li Ningwan held Yi Hui's hand and looked at her mother with a complicated expression: "You see, this is the difference between you and Yi Hui. She cares about me, but you only care about others."

Madam Li said speechlessly, "Isn't caring about Prince Chang also caring about you? He's seriously injured, and you're still intact?"

Li Ningwan finished recounting what had happened in the palace, clapped his hands and stood up. He walked to the window and sighed, "Prince Chang's heart probably won't calm down. He'll still plot against Yuyu."

Yuyu dodged it last time, but what about next time?

Even if he managed to dodge it every time, he would still not feel at ease.

Madam Li said, "If you don't want Jiusu to be Prince Chang's concubine, then go to the Crown Prince's Mansion and be a concubine."

Yi Hui flatly refused: "No! Yuyu already has a lover."

Thinking of the Jiang family being confiscated and exiled, and losing their newly acquired official position because of a woman and a fight, Madam Li snorted coldly, "Aren't you ashamed?"

Li Ningwan said, "I quite like that kid Jiang Jing."

Madam Li rolled her eyes in disdain. She looked at the two of them and said unhappily, "I have no control over your daughter's marriage, but I have to take care of your affairs. The mansion needs to take a concubine. Your third brother's wife has a good sister who can bear children. I will have someone bring her to the mansion and take care of it tomorrow. Yi Hui, do you agree?"

Yi Hui lowered his head.

I feel extremely guilty for my frail body and my inability to bear children for the Marquis.

"I listen to the Marquis."

Li Ningwan said, "Just listen to me, mother. I won't take a concubine. Yi Hui is not in good health, and marrying her in will only make her angry. Besides, can you please stop hoping for your son to die too slowly?"

Old Madam Li looked up and down with her eyes wide open.

"Don't slander me!"

Li Ningwan spread her hands and said, "Father could have lived a few more years, but grandmother and you kept taking concubines for him. Due to the day and night toiling and depression, you forced him to die suddenly in the concubine's bed. Has mother forgotten?"

When she talked about the past events, she almost forgot about the old marquis.

Old Madam Li was so angry that her face turned pale and she threw the porcelain cup next to her to the ground.

"How did he become someone forced by me? Wasn't it your grandmother who said that in order to expand the Marquisate, a concubine must be taken. Who would be willing to share the old Marquis with someone else? Do I just like being a widow?"

Li Ningwan asked in return, "Why does Mother force Yi Hui to do something when she doesn't like it?"

"Oh, so you're waiting for me here." Madam Li calmed down and said, "You disobey me in every way. Do you still have eyes for me as your mother?"

Li Ningwan said seriously, "You always force me. Do you still treat me as your son?"

Nanny Ju sent Li Yulan back to the old courtyard. When she heard that the old lady was arguing with the Marquis again, she sighed. It was so hard for them to sit together and talk... She lifted the thick curtain and came in.

Standing next to the old lady, he smiled.

"I heard that the young lady's new hot pot restaurant is quite good. How about we talk somewhere else?"

Yi Hui nodded to the Marquis.

Watching the two of them go out first.

Madam Li said disdainfully, "What hot pot restaurant? I don't want to eat there."

Nanny Ju quickly took Madam's hand and whispered, "Think about it, it's good to offend Prince Chang. That way, the Marquis will have no choice but to side with the Crown Prince. Didn't you hope that the Marquis could achieve great things? Isn't this opportunity here? And I heard something about the young lady."

"What's the matter?" she asked.

Aunt Ju came closer and said, "The Crown Princess is pregnant. It was the eldest lady who cured her. You can ask her to check on the Madam. In a few years, you will be able to hold your grandson."

Mrs. Li couldn't help but smile when she thought of the fat boy.

So much so that in the hot pot restaurant, she kept smiling at Yi Hui.

Yi Hui said unnaturally: "I have sent someone to look for Yuyu."

When Lin Gang and Liu'er found Jiusu, she had just discussed with Jiang Jing a series of measures against King Chang. They wanted to completely monopolize the economy, politics and connections.

Liu Er said politely, "Young Master Jiang, would you like to come with us?"

"No." Jiang Jing said, "I'm going back to see my mother first. She doesn't seem to be feeling well."

Jiusu looked worried, "Auntie, are you okay?"

It seems that the lady's health has not been very good since she returned from Prince Chang's Mansion.

"My knee hurts. Take some medicine first and see how it goes." He said, "Don't worry. If anything happens, I'll tell you."

The hot pot restaurant was bustling with activity, and the hot pot was scalding hot. Guessing that Yi Hui and his mother couldn't stand spicy food, they ordered the four-square-shaped hot pot. Lord Li and Jiusu liked spicy food, and Old Lady Li wanted to show off by having a bite of the meat in the spicy hot pot with red oil. In an instant, her throat was choked by the spiciness.

“Cough cough cough!”

Li Ningwan snorted a few times: "Mother, when you are old, don't show off your abilities."

Jiusu saw that she looked uncomfortable, so he unscrewed the cap of the yogurt bottle and handed it to her, saying softly, "Grandma, this helps relieve the spiciness."

Relieved, Madam Li glared fiercely at the spicy pot. She wiped the stains from her mouth, her green handkerchief stained with red chili oil. She said in a deep voice, "Can't you just speak properly? I really hate you, but you gave birth to a good daughter. Jiusu, hold your hand out and let Grandma see it."

Everyone was stunned.

Li Ningwan looked her mother up and down and asked Aunt Ju, "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

"Rebellious son!" Old Madam Li was so angry that she clenched her fist and hit him on the back. Seeing her son coughing because of the beating, she couldn't help but feel distressed.

Jiusu exchanged places with her mother and said sweetly, "Grandma, as soon as I saw you this morning, I knew you were a kind and loving old lady."

Yi Hui and Li Ningwan looked at each other in disbelief.

Yi Hui put down her chopsticks and looked at the two of them, her eyes couldn't help but turn red. Ever since she became pregnant with Yuyu, she had been expecting that the birth of the child would bring happiness and joy to the family, and that she could put aside her grudges with her mother-in-law and live a good life. But with the disappearance of Yuyu.

Everything became a bubble.

She held the man's hand, choking with sobs and saying, "My Lord..."

Li Ningwan nodded, put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered, "I understand, I understand everything. It will be fine, everything will be fine."

Mrs. Li looked at her white and tender hands and was surprised. She thought that her granddaughter who was raised in the countryside would be rough. Of course, none of this mattered.

Covering his mouth with his hand, he whispered in her ear, "I heard you know medicine? You even cured the Crown Princess' infertility. Actually, I have a request. Could you help check your mother's body?"
