The first wife immediately lost her temper and shouted at Sang Hongfu, "Sang Hongfu! Is that the kind of person you think I am?"
Sang Hongfu hesitated slightly when questioned, but when he thought of Chunhe's words, his anger surged up again: "If it wasn't you, who else could it be? Liu'er is so gentle and never offends anyone. Who else do you think would lay a hand on her?"
"So you doubt me?" The First Madam had lost all sense of heartache; she felt numb.
Her body had been trembling slightly since she came in.
Before Sang Hongfu could say anything more, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Sang Yun ran to the First Madam and hugged her: "Mother."
As if she had found her pillar of support, the First Madam hugged Sang Yun and began to sob.
Sang Yun then looked at Sang Hongfu: "Father, what exactly did Mother do that made you yell at her like that?"
Sang Hongfu saw that Sang Yun's expression had softened considerably, but her anger had not subsided: "You want her to tell me what good thing she did?"
Sang Yun looked at the First Madam, who was hugging her and crying with snot and tears streaming down her face, and asked softly, "Mother, what exactly happened?"
He was originally looking for Yang Mu'an with Yang Muchen when a servant hurriedly called him back. He hadn't been home for the past two days, so he still didn't know what had happened.
Although Yang Mu'an's disappearance was not due to him, it was closely related to him.
The First Madam, her hands tightly clasped together, cried out, “Your father is determined to falsely accuse me of setting fire to the woodshed, causing that little slut Yang Liu to lose her child!”
Sang Yun frowned even more. He knew the First Madam's methods; at most, she would beat Yang Liu, but she would never do something like this.
He looked at Sang Hongfu and asked, "Father, do you have any evidence that Mother did this? How can you be so sure it was Mother?"
Sang Hongfu's tone softened considerably when faced with Sang Yun's questioning: "Everyone knows that your mother beat your aunt yesterday and locked her in the woodshed. Who else could it be but her?"
Sang Yun looked at Sang Hongfu firmly: "Does Father also think that Mother did this?"
Sang Hongfu: "If it's not her, then who is it? Who do you think would benefit from your aunt's accident?"
He was now convinced that the First Madam was behind it, because Yang Liu was not one to make enemies; only the First Madam would harm her out of jealousy.
Sang Yun smiled: "Instead of suspecting Mother here, Father should investigate what your concubine has been doing. Once you find out, you may be able to make a decision."
After he finished speaking, he immediately embraced the First Madam and walked outside.
Sang Hongfu watched the two figures leave for a long while before looking up at the sky again.
Sang Yun told him to investigate what Yang Liu had done and what it meant.
Yang Liu heard their entire conversation from inside, and her heart jumped when she heard those words.
She tugged at Xiaohui's hand, and Xiaohui immediately understood what she meant.
Xiao Hui nodded to Yang Liu and then began to cry out, "Auntie, Auntie, what's wrong? Master! Master, come quick!"
Sang Hongfu was still preoccupied with Yang Liu's matter, but Xiao Hui's call made him forget about it completely.
He strode into the room and panicked when he saw Yang Liu breathing heavily in pain: "Liu'er, Liu'er, what's wrong with you?"
