He's still dead at her hands now.
Although Jiang Shuxue is about to marry into the Zhong family, her years of hard work have basically ensured that everything will go smoothly. However, if an illegitimate child were to emerge one day and reveal past events, there might be disputes over the dowry.
Only the dead are the safest bet.
Ms. Wei felt much comforted by the grievances she had suffered in the past few days.
Next, all that was left was to wait, to wait for news that Jiang Shijing had become a complete idiot.
Final victory is just around the corner, within reach.
Jiang Shuxue was stopped at the entrance of Jiang Shijing's courtyard.
"I'm sorry, Miss, but the master has instructed that the eldest young master needs to rest quietly and should not be disturbed by anyone."
Jiang Shuxue snorted: "Can't even my own sister be allowed? If I didn't come to visit all the time, no one would even know if my brother died in the house."
"There's no need to worry about this young lady. The young master's condition is improving, and he won't have any accidents for no reason," a guard who seemed to be the leader said coldly from the doorway.
Jiang Shuxue craned her neck to look inside again, but saw nothing. She snorted, turned around, and left.
"Improving? That's just wishful thinking." Hearing Jiang Shuxue's words, Madam Wei couldn't help but find it amusing.
They're all going to become mute, unable to take care of themselves, and just drooling—who are they trying to scare by spreading this kind of message?
The master is probably extremely anxious and helpless, but he suspects her, so he's just trying to provoke her. She won't fall for it.
“Princess Shouguang doesn’t seem too worried either,” Jiang Shuxue said.
Mr. Wei closed his eyes, revealing an expression of both sympathy and contempt.
"They're all putting on an act; let's see how long they keep it up."
There are still about two weeks until Jiang Shuxue's wedding. At the wedding banquet, let that fool show his face so that everyone knows that the eldest son of the Jiang family is hopeless.
Princess Consort Lu sent a letter to Princess Shouguang.
Princess Shouguang couldn't wait and quickly skimmed through the contents of the letter. Her face froze, her hands trembled slightly, and then she slowly read through the letter from the first word down.
Ye Qiao, from Xiamei Village, Yunzhou. Eighteen years ago, Yin Shi suddenly appeared with a baby in her arms, and for many years she has been treated coldly by the villagers.
"Madam, it seems there's more to the letter," Granny Sun reminded her from the side.
Princess Shouguang turned the paper over and saw a portrait of a young woman, which had been enhanced with colored pens, making it even more lifelike.
She looks about six or seven parts like she did when she was young.
Princess Shouguang stared blankly, her eyes welling up with tears without her realizing it.
Even though it was just a portrait, the natural blood ties between mother and daughter made her feel incredibly close.
"Aunt Sun, was the maid who disappeared from Madam Wei's side back then surnamed Yin?"
"His surname is Yin, and his name is Yin Qiao."
It turns out that Lady Yin also gave her own name to her daughter.
“My daughter, my daughter, my real Shuxue!” Princess Shouguang clutched the letter in her hand, bent over the table and wept, overwhelmed with emotion and grief.
"It's all your mother's fault for not protecting you back then, leaving you to wander outside."
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have to suffer in that remote mountain village, but could live a life of wealth and luxury in the capital."
Princess Shouguang felt extremely guilty.
“Madam, there’s no need to blame yourself like this. If Miss had stayed in the courtyard from the beginning, she would have truly had no way to survive,” said Granny Sun.
Princess Shouguang thought about it and realized that even when her daughter came to visit last time, she was still kept in the dark by Wei Shi's scheme.
The letter said that Ye Qiao was on her way to the capital. This time, she was determined to reunite with her daughter, ensure her safety, and give her everything that belonged to her.
