A noble嫡女 (legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official) is framed and falls to the borderlands, losing her memory and becoming a farmer's wife. Su Nanxi arrives with a space (a mystical ...
Mu Jiu Niang was furious. This son of hers was useless; he kept harping on this problem!
"That's right! You were never born into a wealthy family, you didn't have any noble bloodline. Don't you even look at yourself? Where do you have the appearance of someone of high birth? Why did I do all this, going to great lengths to get you into the Marquis's mansion? It's all for your own good!"
We were starving back then, but you've been living a life of plenty these past few years. Do you remember those days when you didn't eat anything? If it weren't for wanting you to survive and have food to eat, would I have taken such a risk? Do you remember how your brothers and sisters died? I was desperate and had no other choice but to do this!
Mu Jiuniang was ruthless. Since he wanted an answer, she would give it to him. Judging from her son's determination to get an answer, she knew she couldn't let the day pass by!
Let's just lay our cards on the table, throw the pot out the window, and listen if we want!
When Master Su heard this, he was stunned. His reaction was not particularly strong, probably because he had already guessed that this would be the outcome!
He was very young then, often hungry, and in poor mental condition, so his memory wasn't very good either!
Therefore, he always believed his mother; whatever she said, he believed!
"Perhaps God took pity on us and presented us with a great opportunity. If we don't seize it, how can we live up to God's favor! I'm doing all this for you. Your deadbeat father didn't have the life to enjoy happiness. He just started to have a good life before he passed away! Am I not unlucky? I knew that one day I might be exposed, but I still risked my life! Wasn't it all for your future, so that you could have enough to eat and money to spend and live a good life!"
"Didn't we bet right? That old Marquis of Anping passed away not long after, leaving instructions to take good care of you, and no one doubted you anymore! Don't you know how you've been doing all these years? When you were enjoying yourself, why didn't you suspect me? Now that something terrible has happened, you're blaming me! You believed just a few words from others! Couldn't you just pretend you didn't hear them, not believe them? Just pretend you're Marquis Anping's illegitimate son and continue enjoying what you're entitled to?"
Mu Jiuniang probably had a lot to say, and after keeping it all bottled up for so many years, with no one to confide in, she just burst out, rattling off a string of words without giving Su Erye a chance to interrupt.
After hearing this, Master Su looked dejected, even more hopeless than before.
“Mother, do you think I can still enjoy life? I can’t pay off my gambling debts, and I’ll soon be trampled into the mud! I probably won’t be able to turn my life around! Don’t even mention asking the Marquis’s mansion for help, they won’t care about me! I got involved in Miss Su’s disappearance, and now the people from the Marquis’s mansion have started investigating me. They probably have evidence, and they want to drink my blood and tear my tendons out of me. Why would they help me?”
Mu Jiuniang felt like she couldn't breathe. Her heart was already overloaded today. What other shocking things could she say all at once?
Don't throw things out one by one, your heart can't take it!
I'm so disappointed in you!
grimace in pain!
"Why did you have to get involved in Miss Su's affairs? Are you trying to drive me crazy? Is that something you can interfere with? We've told you to be a womanizer, but don't meddle in the feuds within the Marquis's mansion! Everyone there is shrewd and capable of handling anything you want to mess with! Why don't you listen to advice?!"
She knew it! Miss Su had become rather strange. If so many people wanted to harm her, she would only become more eccentric!
Mu Jiu Niang once warned Su Er Ye that he could pretend to be a playboy in public, but he should not get involved in other people's grudges. Because once he got involved, given the capabilities of the people in the capital, if they were to get serious, they could turn them upside down in no time!
If something is actually found out, then we're doomed!
All the plans have been in vain!
It really is like falling into the deepest abyss of hell!
How could the Marquis of Anping's mansion let them off so easily!
That son is such a good-for-nothing! He's told not to do anything, but he insists on doing it anyway!
It's no use, it's no use!
That young lady was the apple of everyone's eye and the center of everyone's attention!
This idiot is so foolish, there's no hope for him!
The young lady, who has made a glamorous comeback, has long since shed her former innocence and naivety, becoming someone no one can fathom!
Since she was able to come back from hell, she must have had powerful backers. And she herself has probably already undergone a rebirth. It's impossible for her to be without some ability!
Since she's back for revenge, she naturally won't let anyone who hurt her get away with it—not a single one!
It’s over!
Mu Jiuniang felt dizzy and her heart was agitated and throbbing, while her head also started to throb!
Master Su probably realized he regretted it, so he didn't jump up and confront Mu Jiu Niang. He looked very dejected.
"Mother, you just said 'you all,' does that mean someone else was involved?"
Su Erye suddenly asked a question after he seemed to remember something.
Mu Jiuniang didn't want to look at Su Erye. She closed her eyes and looked very tired. "No! I don't even know what good things my own son has done, why would I care about others?"
He vehemently denied it.
If we can avoid dragging Luo Xiaoniang into this mess, we should. Who knows, Luo Xiaoniang might be able to save her at a crucial moment!
Second Master Su pursed his lips and muttered, "Mother still cares more about those two brats!"
Su Erye suddenly uttered this sentence, and although he spoke very softly, Mu Jiuniang still heard it. She was so angry that she was furious.
"They are your brothers! How can you curse them like that? As the eldest brother, you should have the magnanimity and generosity of an elder brother! No matter who their father is, they are your brothers, and no one can change that! You have no worries about food and clothing, yet you can't keep this dead man company. Is it wrong for me to find someone to keep me company?"
Thinking back on all these years, Su Erye felt a pang of guilt for having rarely cared about Mu Jiuniang, though not much. He even retorted inwardly, "It was my mother who forbade me from contacting her, and now she's blaming me!"
However, he didn't dare say it!
"Perhaps the people of the Marquis of Anping's residence are unaware of the good deeds you've been doing in secret. Go and test them first, and ask them for help! I have no reason to lie; I truly have no money left! To tell you the truth, I was previously ambushed and suffered heavy losses! Otherwise, I certainly wouldn't have held back!"
Master Su shook his head, "Miss probably already has evidence in her hands; her eyes are terrifying!"
Mu Jiuniang was exasperated. "Why didn't you just ignore it? Maybe it was a test! If you panic and give yourself away, you'll fall right into their trap! If they had real evidence, they would have already called the authorities to arrest you and put you in jail!"
Master Su thought for a moment, then shook his head.
He was still afraid; those eyes were too unfathomable!
"I betrayed the Marquis's mansion and framed the eldest young lady; they won't let me get away with this!"
"Useless trash! Huh! Who are you people?!"
