Chapter 522 Nightmare (5)
"I can't make it anymore." Luo Xueyan was so angry that she felt like she was wearing a veil of life in her eyes. "My child is gone, so there's no hope. What does it matter if I can't make a living? These herbs are wasted."
"Sister, please don't say that." Chang Zaiqing said, "If the Fifth Miss knew you thought this way, I don't know how sad she would be."
“Jiaojiao…” Luo Xueyan’s eyes were filled with pain. Shen Miao took a step forward and wanted to hold Luo Xueyan’s hand, but her hand passed through Luo Xueyan’s.
It was as if she didn't exist.
"Jiaojiao hates me," Luo Xueyan closed her eyes, "but what can I do? The Shen family cannot be tied to Prince Ding. Prince Ding can hide it from Jiaojiao, but not from me. Jiaojiao now hates both me and Ah Xin, and doesn't even want to see me. Now that Prince Ding is doing this, what should Jiaojiao do in the future? There's no way out anyway, I..." The more she spoke, the more heartbroken she became. Suddenly, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed violently a few times. When she opened the handkerchief again, there was a splash of bright red blood on it.
"Don't think about it, sister." Chang Zaiqing supported her and comforted her, "Fifth Miss is just distracted for a moment. Perhaps His Royal Highness Prince Ding really treats her well. Besides, there's no such thing as an overnight hatred between parents and children. Fifth Miss will understand in the future that this hatred is only temporary."
Shen Miao glared at Chang Zai Qing. Chang Zai Qing's words seemed comforting, but in reality, they only added fuel to the fire, confirming Shen Miao's hatred for Luo Xueyan. In her previous life, when she married Fu Xiuyi, she had wanted the Shen family's help, but Shen Xin refused, which made her quite resentful, but she didn't need to express hatred. Now that Luo Xueyan was dying, how could she not be heartbroken to hear Shen Miao's words of hatred for her?
Shen Miao's vision blurred for a moment, and she saw a woman sitting opposite Chang Zaiqing, wearing a Autumn Fragrance dress with gold trim, looking a little impatient. The woman was also young, with delicate features, but she was wearing extremely heavy makeup, which made her look even more strange. Shen Miao opened her mouth. If this wasn't her, who else could it be?
Chang Zaiqing smiled and said, "Fifth Miss, please don't be angry with Madam. It's just that the issue of military strength has always been very important. The General and my sister probably have their own considerations, which is why they acted this way."
"We are all family. Since I married into Prince Ding's mansion, the prince is also half a member of the Shen family. Why do my father and mother still treat him like an outsider? I know that my father and mother have never liked me since I was a child, so they abandoned me in Dingjing and even implicated Your Highness."
Chang Zaiqing laughed again: "Fifth Miss, what are you talking about? Although the general and sister are not as close to you as the eldest young master, blood is thicker than water."
"I don't care," the young Shen Miao said arrogantly, "They say Aunt Qing is the smartest. Can you think of a way for me? To get my parents to agree to lend troops to His Highness?"
Chang Zaiqing seemed very embarrassed. After a moment, she said, "Since Miss Wu is Madam's biological daughter, Madam must be very concerned about Miss Wu. Let's not talk about other things. If Miss Wu acts coquettishly and complains to Madam, perhaps Madam will agree to Miss Wu's conditions. If that doesn't work, she can just make a scene like a child." She smiled and said, "But this is all nonsense. Miss Wu should think it over."
Shen Miao, who was watching from the side, had already turned ashen with anger. Chang Zaiqing was not trying to stop the fight, he was clearly trying to instigate it!
Shen Miao recalled that in her previous life, Luo Xueyan had kept her pregnancy and miscarriage secret, intending to wait until the pregnancy was stable before spreading the news. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened. It just so happened that Prince Ding wanted to borrow troops from Chen Xin, but Chen Xin naturally refused. Shen Miao went to Chang Zaiqing to complain, and Chang Zaiqing led her into a conversation, getting her to get angry with Luo Xueyan.
