"Father, calm down. You are already old now, so you should not get angry easily. If you get angry, the whole mansion will be in trouble..."
Jiang Rongqing couldn't stand hearing that. He grabbed the jade carving on the table and threw it at Jiang Mingzhi, veins popping out of his forehead. "You lawless bastard, you're such a traitor! How dare you have someone attack your father? Do you even have me as your father in your eyes?"
After saying that, he picked up the things on the table and threw them at Jiang Mingzhi.
Seeing Jiang Rongqing so angry, Jiang Mingzhi found it quite interesting. He laughed secretly while dodging the physical attacks thrown by his father with ease.
Jiang Rongqing didn't hit anyone and even caught a glimpse of the smile on his eldest daughter's face. He became even more angry, with veins popping out on his forehead. Jiang Mingzhi was worried that he would die in anger.
"Father, are you angry because the calligraphy is bad?"
Jiang Mingzhi caught the scroll Jiang Rongqing threw to her and asked knowingly, pretending to appreciate it. She pondered and said, "Father, this Yan style requires strength and bones. I think it's not a pity if your calligraphy is messed up."
What does this mean? Does it mean he has no bones?
Jiang Rongqing pointed at Jiang Mingzhi and was speechless for a long time.
"Hurry up and ask someone to invite a doctor to come in. Father's health is getting worse day by day."
When Jiang Mingzhi saw Gao Jian bringing people in, she stopped being angry with Jiang Rongqing. After all, as long as Jiang Rongqing was around, this Marquisate would have no connection with the Feng family. Otherwise, if it fell into the hands of Feng's son, she would have to make a lot of calculations.
After leaving Jiang Rongqing's study, Jiang Mingzhi sent someone to report to Old Madam Jiang.
"It is said that the Marquis was so overjoyed that he fainted."
When Mother An said this, she couldn't even raise her head. She felt that it sounded weird.
Old Madam Jiang also felt it was strange, but since this was the message sent by her most steady and capable eldest granddaughter, it should be true.
But would Jiang Rongqing really faint from joy over a man who had been living away from home for many years?
As the biological mother who watched Jiang Rongqing grow up, Old Lady Jiang expressed reservations.
But no one expected that Jiang Rongqing would never be able to stand up again after falling down.
As soon as Jiang Yuzhen returned home, she rushed to find Jiang Rongqing to complain, but she learned from Gao Jian that Jiang Rongqing was ill.
When she heard that it was Jiang Mingzhi who was responsible, Jiang Yuzhen turned around and wanted to go find her to settle the score, but after taking a few steps, her feet could not move anymore. The murderous look on Jiang Mingzhi's face was still vivid in her mind, so how could she really dare to cause trouble for Jiang Mingzhi?
As for Jiang Mingzhi, when he returned to Mo Chunyuan, he saw Chunhua standing under the eaves.
Behind her frail figure were Qingtang and Zan'er who accompanied her silently.
"Eldest sister!"
Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Jiang Mingzhi come back safely.
Jiang Mingzhi nodded, and seeing Chunhua wearing a plain dress in the color of rain, she nodded with satisfaction.
Logically speaking, Feng was the second wife, and as the heir of the original wife, she and Chunhua should also wear white and observe mourning. However, Feng had done too many disgusting things, and she didn't want to wear mourning for her. Dressing simply was already giving her face.
There have been a lot of incidents happening in the mansion these days. Qingtang looked at Jiang Mingzhi nervously, "Miss, you are finally back. What are your plans for the future?"
Jiang Mingzhi dared to confront Jiang Rongqing like this today, naturally he had a plan.
Seeing Qingtang asking on her own initiative, he couldn't help but admire her vigilance.
"Since Feng is dead, the matter of Chunhua being abducted by the Feng family can no longer be investigated. In this case, the Feng family must make serious efforts."
Jiang Mingzhi didn't explain much, but turned to Chunhua and said, "Father is ill. You can come with me later and bring him some soup and food as a token of your filial piety."
When Chunhua heard that she was going to meet Marquis Jinyi, she became nervous.
Not long after, Ping'er came back, along with her uncle and aunt.
When Zhang heard that such a thing had happened in the Jinyi Marquis' Mansion, she was shocked and asked someone to ask her uncle to come back from the yamen early. Wang Hanzhang didn't even have time to change into his official uniform before he got on the carriage and headed straight to the Jinyi Marquis' Mansion.
Seeing Chunhua and the child, Wang Hanzhang slapped himself several times in the face, leaving Jiang Mingzhi and his aunt stunned. Jiang Mingzhi came to his senses and hurriedly advised, "Uncle, this is not your fault. It was the Feng family who did the evil. What does it have to do with you?"
Wang Hanzhang shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "Your mother passed away early. Before she died, she asked me to take good care of you sisters, especially the newborn Yushu. She was afraid that you two sisters would suffer after she passed away. I promised her, but..."
But he never expected that the Feng family would be so bold!
"Where's Jiang Rongqing! Let's go find him!"
Wang Hanzhang gritted his teeth and turned to find Jiang Rong to settle the score.
But before they could get over there, Gao Jian ran in like a lost soul, "Miss, this is bad, the master... he's had a stroke!"
There was silence inside and outside the room. Jiang Mingzhi stood by Jiang Rongqing's bed and served him medicine. When he walked out, he asked the doctor again.
"I wonder when father's symptoms will improve? As long as he can be cured, any amount of money will not matter."
The doctor shook his head. "My dear Miss, it's not that I wasn't doing my best. You saw it too. Even the imperial physician Huang from the palace shook his head after seeing it. Now we have worked together to give the Marquis acupuncture, which is why he has been saved. As for recovery... God will take care of it."
What does this mean? It means that everything depends on God's will. But since ancient times, God has been blind. The so-called "good luck comes to those who are lucky" is nothing but a joke.
Jiang Mingzhi nodded, and repeated a few clichéd words of advice to try their best to treat the patient, in response to what Old Lady Jiang had said.
Upon learning that Jiang Rongqing had suffered a stroke, everyone in the Marquis' Mansion gathered in the main courtyard. At this time, Jiang Yuzhen was accompanying Old Madam Jiang and preparing a tranquilizing soup. When she saw Jiang Mingzhi come in, Jiang Yuzhen lost her balance and almost spilled the entire soup on Old Madam Jiang.
Seeing this, Mother An hurriedly took the bowl and didn't dare let Jiang Yuzhen serve her anymore.
Old Madam Jiang was distressed at the moment. Seeing Jiang Yuzhen fumbling, she waved her hand wearily, "You don't have to serve here. We need people at the mourning hall. Once your mother's funeral invitations are sent out, people will come to pay their respects soon. Your father is ill, and your eldest sister will be in charge of all matters in the mansion. As her daughter, you should also do your best to help your mother pass away with dignity."
To Jiang Yuzhen, these words were as harsh as they could be.
She curled her lips awkwardly and walked out with her eyelids drooping.
"Who wants to serve her? Who do you think you are? You can't even give birth to a son, and you have the right to lecture me!"
Jiang Yuzhen spat on the ground and turned to go to the mourning hall.
At this time, Old Lady Jiang asked Jiang Mingzhi: "Tell me, so many things have happened in the Marquis' Mansion, what should we do in the future?"
