"You keep saying that Mian'er is the princess of Ye County. As the princess of a county, how many things does she have to do every day? How important is her reputation? If she is not careful, she will cause a lot of complaints. Do you really want the people to rise up in rebellion before you are satisfied? The Chen family takes advantage of Mian'er's position and acts arrogantly and domineeringly."
“Such petty people who are greedy and forget righteousness are not worthy of being relatives of the Jiang family.”
As Mr. Jiang spoke, he glanced at his pale-faced wife, snorted, patted his son's shoulder, and turned back to the clueless woman.
"Do you know that Chen Kun is known as the Overlord Chen? Do you know that when he goes out, the whole city wishes to close its doors and windows? Why does the Chen family dare to be so arrogant? Because everyone in the county knows that the Chen family is related to the princess, so even if they commit a crime, no one dares to interfere."
"You think it's all over just because no one dares to say it to your face? Those people are cursing your son in private, saying he abuses his power, condones his relatives' wrongdoings, and preys on the people. They're throwing buckets of filth at your son. And you're protecting an outsider without any regard for their feelings. You're truly selfless!"
“Ignorant and foolish woman, let me tell you, even if you don’t care about your son, don’t forget that you are a member of the Jiang family.”
As Mr. Jiang spoke, he grew increasingly angry, and his gaze toward Mrs. Jiang became more and more hostile.
Mrs. Jiang: "..."
This was the first time she had ever seen the master so furious.
When did she stop caring about her son?
She was overjoyed that her son was so capable and had become a princess at such a young age.
Thinking of this, Madam Jiang's face turned pale and her eyes reddened. "Jiang Yongfeng, what's wrong with you? When have I ever not cared about my son?"
Even though Kun'er was beaten up, why is she still ignoring it?
Seeing his father's face flushed with anger, Jiang Mian reached out and helped him sit down. "Father, is this the first time you've heard about what the Chen family has done? Why are you so angry?"
"Cough cough... Mian'er, you've suffered so much these past years. It's my fault, I shouldn't have spoiled your mother. The Chen family is outrageous, they'll suffer sooner or later, but it's truly wrong of them to drag my son into this mess." Old Master Jiang shook his head and sighed, filled with remorse.
Turning his head to see his wife's extremely aggrieved expression, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.
"Does Madam think we have wronged the Chen family? If you still consider the Chen family relatives, I'll have the maid tidy up and you can simply move in with them."
"Master, you...you're actually kicking me out?" Madam Jiang couldn't believe it. All she wanted was for her son to help her cousin.
“You don’t care about the Jiang family and only care about your nephew. If that’s the case, you might as well move there so we can take care of him. My son and I are used to it.”
Jiang Yongfeng looked at her and smiled sadly, "Mian'er is your own son, do you know his thoughts? Do you know his likes and dislikes? Do you know what he likes to eat?"
Hearing Jiang Yongfeng's questioning and turning to look at the indifference in her son's eyes, Madam Jiang's face suddenly turned pale, and tears streamed down her face.
Looking at the scene before them, the father and son understood everything. They smiled at each other, as if they could both feel the bitterness in the scene.
Mo Lan sat on the roof, quietly watching the family of three before turning her gaze to Jiang Mian.
What a poor child.
Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she seemed to understand why Jiang Mian turned a blind eye to Chen Kun.
