Yao Zhizhi had just communicated with He Zian when word came in that Jiang Yushu had committed suicide.
In fact, it was an attempted suicide.
It is said that he bit his tongue when the maid was not around. Perhaps it was too painful, so he gave up halfway through. Half of his tongue was still bitten off, and he was still breathing. If he is treated well, he will be able to speak again in the future.
This matter happened too suddenly. He Zian and Jiang Mingzhi looked at each other and saw suspicion in each other's eyes.
Could it be that Jiang Yushu knew that He Zian had come to his house and wanted to commit suicide out of fear of punishment?
No one could draw any conclusions now. They could only wait until Jiang Yushu recovered from his illness. When Mrs. Jiang heard about this, she couldn't help but pat her chest, her heart still trembling. She kept saying several times, "It was a close call!"
Jiang Mingzhi escorted He Zian to the hanging flower gate. He Zian turned around and bowed, saying politely, "Miss, please stay."
Looking up, he saw a hint of sadness between Jiang Mingzhi's brows. He Zian thought that the Jinyi Marquis Mansion had been pushed to the forefront of public opinion, and the reputation of all the women in the mansion would be ruined if they were not careful. He couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for Jiang Mingzhi's situation.
"Miss, there's no need to be too sad. As the saying goes, things will work themselves out when the time comes. Everything will eventually come to an end, right?"
Knowing that this was a well-intentioned comfort, Jiang Mingzhi nodded slightly and smiled back.
Before Jiang Yushu recovered from his illness, Jiang Mingzhi's birthday arrived.
Chu Muchi gave her a day off that day, and Jiang Mingzhi was happy to have some free time. She had just received news from Lu Yun that her mother's whereabouts had been found. She was so happy that she couldn't sleep for several days.
There were a lot of things going on at home, so she was not in the mood to celebrate her birthday. But her aunt said she would celebrate her birthday in person, and she didn't want to refuse her aunt's kindness, so she happily agreed.
Except for her tongue, Jiang Yushu's injuries have mostly healed. Feng went to see her once. Because of her suicide, there was no one left in the room after that, so she knew everything Feng said.
What Jiang Mingzhi didn't expect was that although Feng had lost her power as a housekeeper, she was no longer as crazy as when she just came back. When she came to Mochunyuan to see Jiang Yushu, she just told her the same old things to comfort her and get better soon.
Jiang Mingzhi could vaguely guess what Feng was thinking.
Now the old lady is already looking for someone to serve Jiang Rongqing. With Feng's current status, she can no longer attend any social activities in the Kyoto circle in the name of the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion. The old lady is also old and is afraid that she will not be able to do so. Therefore, she will definitely be replaced by the new concubine. She cannot afford to lose any more helpers now.
Compared to his biological daughter Jiang Yuzhen, Jiang Yushu, who has the granddaughter of the Wang family, is obviously a more useful chess piece.
On Jiang Mingzhi's birthday, her aunt gave instructions a day in advance to set up two tables of banquets at Wang's house and invited several families who had always been on good terms with the Wang family to come as guests. Jiang Mingzhi knew that her aunt was doing this to give her face, so on her birthday, she dressed up and went to Wang's house.
She used to be so beautiful even without any makeup, and now with a little makeup on, she was even more eye-catching. When her aunt saw her, her eyes lit up. She pulled her close, looked her up and down, and praised her several times, "This little girl, this is the way to dress!"
Wang Qiang also joined in the fun, "Yes, your usual clothes are too plain. Girls from our Wang family should be beautiful and open, not cover up or hide!"
