Chapter 434: Except for the Third Master, who is the Marquis's offspring, the rest are not, they are all bastards
The old lady was so anxious that she shouted, "The ancestral hall cannot be opened, the ancestral hall cannot be opened, it cannot be opened."
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her. Ye Zhenghai and Ye Tingxiao followed the Ye family members into the ancestral hall according to their seniority.
The other female members of the family also stood according to their seniority.
Du Wanwan is a modern person, she has never seen an ancestral hall opened, and she feels very novel. However, her face is solemn, and there is no sign of anything unusual.
The old lady was shouting outside the ancestral hall like a shrew, but no one paid any attention to her.
Ye Zhenghai and all the elders sat down, took out the stack of paper his son gave him last night, and faced the clan elders.
“Dear clan elders, Zhenghai revealed that his stepmother Cheng bribed the midwife and poisoned and killed my biological mother Wan, causing Zhenghai to lose the protection of his biological mother as soon as he was born.
This is the testimony. The witness is outside the ancestral hall. I ask the elders to seek justice for Zhenghai’s mother who died unjustly.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned and looked at the old lady in disbelief.
Many women were whispering to each other.
"The old lady is mean. If this is true, it's disgusting. She killed someone's own mother and married into the mansion as a stepmother. The more I think about it, the more disgusting it is."
"The Ye family has such an evil woman. No wonder Marquis Pingyang has not returned to the capital for decades."
"Maybe he knows it in his heart, but for the sake of his reputation, he has been enduring it. It's hard for him."
Ye Zhengqiu stood aside with his head down, not saying a word. It was good enough that his elder brother did not go to the Dali Temple. It was considered to have given their family a chance to survive.
If they really report this to the Dali Temple, how will they face anyone in the future?
The old lady's two younger brothers also had the same idea. It would be best if the problem could be solved in the Ye family's ancestral hall. Once the matter got out, who would dare to marry a girl from the Cheng family in the future?
After hearing what Ye Zhenghai said, the old lady started to curse like crazy: "Ye Zhenghai! You have no conscience, what right do you have to say that I killed your mother? Your mother died when she gave birth to you. She was unlucky. What does it have to do with me?"
Yetingxiao gave a wink to Aunt Hua.
Aunt Hua immediately understood and turned to the old lady and said, "Miss! There's no need to say these words. Hua Lan has been involved in every one of your affairs. We have done a lot of harm to others, so why do we have to insist on not admitting it?"
Several elders of the Ye family came out of the ancestral hall and sat at the gate. The old uncle looked at Hua Lan and asked, "Tell me everything you know.
If Cheng really killed someone, our Ye family will never cover it up and will definitely give justice to the person who died in vain."
The midwife felt her whole body go numb under Ye Tingxiao's gaze. She pointed at Hua Lan and began to recount the mistakes she had made.
She knew in her heart that as long as she didn't go to the Dali Temple, nothing would happen even if she told the truth. At most, she would be condemned by everyone, but she would not be sent to prison to be tortured.
"Back then, the wife of the old Pingyang Marquis had not given birth yet, so she had already appointed an old woman to deliver the baby, and the personal maid of the eldest daughter of the Cheng family came over.
He gave the old woman one hundred taels of silver and asked her to drug the wife of Marquis Pingyang, causing her to bleed profusely and die.
Originally, Miss Cheng wanted to kill two people with one body, but I didn’t want to be so cruel, so I spared the young master and only hurt the wife of Marquis Pingyang.”
Du Wanwan shook her head and laughed. Look how interesting what the midwife said was. Could it be that she thought that keeping her father-in-law would be a contribution to the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion?
One corpse, two lives? The old lady is really cruel.
The people of the Ye family felt their scalps tingling after hearing this. How cruel it was to take advantage of a person's childbirth to do something to him.
Aunt Hua admitted it very readily, without any delay: "Yes, this was indeed ordered by our young lady, and I did it."
The elders were shocked and looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The old lady who has always been so high and mighty actually hired someone to kill someone when she was young?
The people she killed were from the Ye family, and she even married into the family and acted domineeringly, making the children of the Ye family have to live their lives under her control. It was really despicable.
The old lady was extremely angry and hateful. She jumped up and down and yelled, "Hua Lan! How could you betray me? You slut, I treated you sincerely all the time, why did you treat me like this?
Didn't I prevent you from climbing into the old marquis' bed? Are you holding a grudge against me? Are you deliberately betraying me?"
When this big news came down, almost everyone was stunned. When Hua Mama was young, she had a crush on the old marquis? This was too shocking.
When her scandal was exposed, Aunt Hua's face turned red and she glared at the old lady with a sneer.
"Since you don't care about my feelings, why should I hide it for you? Yes, that's right, I wanted to be the Marquis's concubine back then. Isn't that what you promised me before you married into the Marquis's mansion?
You were the first to go back on your word, otherwise why would I help you to harm others? Back then, you fell in love with the old marquis of the Marquis's Mansion and wanted him to marry you, but he was already engaged.
Your Cheng family wanted to use their power to pressure others, and went to the Wan family to ask them to cancel the engagement, but the Wan family refused. You tried to kill the Wan family, and your father tried to suppress the Wan family."
Ye Zhenghai listened at the side and felt very guilty. His father said that for some unknown reason, his uncles lost all the family fortune in just three or four years.
It turns out that they were suppressed by the Cheng family. Very good, the Cheng family will not have a good life in the future.
Suppress! Not only the Cheng family will do it, but Ye Zhenghai will do it too.
The Cheng brothers sat aside, not daring to even breathe.
Ye Tingxiao is really powerful. He got Aunt Hua back. Even if they wanted to protect her, they didn't dare to speak out.
The conversation had already started and there was no stopping it, and Aunt Hua didn't want to stop either.
"After Wan's death, the old marquis was disheartened. You got married to him as you wished, but does he really like you? How did you get your children? Don't you know?"
The old lady's eyes were red with anger and she wished she could kill Aunt Hua. This was the most shameful thing in her life and must not be told about it.
"Hualan! I'm going to strangle you to death."
Stretching out her chicken claw-like hands, the old lady had a ferocious expression and fierce eyes, as if she wanted to skin Aunt Hua alive, pull out her tendons, drink her blood and eat her flesh.
The old uncle took one look and immediately shouted, "Two strong women, hold her back and let her finish what she has to say."
Three taller women walked out of the crowd, stepped forward and grabbed the old lady tightly.
Fang stood aside, feeling as if the sky was falling.
Could it be what she thought? She must not do that, or she would be too ashamed to face anyone in her life.
Aunt Hua looked at the old lady who was struggling to kill her and couldn't help but sneer: "Except for the third master, who is the Marquis's child, all your children are not, they are all bastards."
"What?"
"Bastard?"
"It's terrible, how did this old woman do it?"
"Oh my god! This old lady was really good at handling things when she was young."
Ye Zhengqiu was furious when he heard this, and he shouted at Aunt Hua: "Please explain carefully, why are they all bastards? Whose bastards are they?"
Fang stumbled and fell to the ground. Just as she thought, the master was not the old marquis's biological son.
So who did she marry?
What is her son?
The look in Fang's eyes when she looked at the old lady was filled with resentment, anger, viciousness, and murderous intent.
This hateful old woman has ruined her life.
At first, she had never thought of marrying into the Marquis's Mansion. It was she who sent someone to the mansion to propose marriage, saying that they didn't mind her family being of small status.
No wonder the sons of the Marquis' Mansion wanted to marry someone of lower status. It turned out that they knew that the master was not the son of the Marquis' Mansion at all.
