Chapter 436: The Truth
Su Wan was walking on the road and only then did she know from Jiang Yu that Ning Wei was afraid of her grandfather and that was why she did not dare to go out.
The two are now husband and wife. Jiang Yu no longer hides many things from Su Wan, but tells her everything about the family situation.
Su Wan also knew about what happened to Jiang Yu's mother in the past, which was indirectly caused by Ning Wei.
However, Su Wan felt a little strange. After all, his mother-in-law grew up in Fengyue Villa. As the daughter of her grandfather, she should know some martial arts, and her physical fitness should not be so poor.
Moreover, Jiang Yu said that she had been ill for more than two years, which means it should be counted from the time Ning Wei came in, and the time just fits.
If he was just angry, it would not make sense for him to be so angry.
Although the original owner also died of anger, she really couldn't breathe. Being angry to death is a matter of a moment. As long as it is not a momentary loss of breath, it is not considered death by anger.
It's true that he got sick from anger, but he can recover from it. It's impossible that the condition gets worse the more he recovers. As long as he takes medicine every day, even if Ning Wei acts like a troublemaker every day, it's impossible that it will work every time, right?
There is only one truth: my mother-in-law was framed.
Jiang Yu looked at Su Wan's brows, which were suddenly furrowed and then relaxed, and he understood her inner conflict.
When it comes to his mother, no matter how happy he was one second, he would not be happy the next.
However, he was willing to explain to Su Wan:
"My mother died because she was drugged, and the person who drugged her was my biological grandmother."
Upon hearing this, Su Wan was stunned for a moment.
She swallowed and could clearly feel his grip on her hand tightening a little.
"From the beginning, she had her sights set on Ning Wei becoming the wife of the Duke's Mansion, but my father didn't like her and insisted on marrying my mother. To pave the way for Ning Wei, the old lady had someone poison my mother, causing her health to deteriorate. No matter how she nursed her back, it was useless. Furthermore, she was very vicious. The poison wasn't put into her daily diet, but in subtle spices. We always thought it was my mother's anger at Ning Wei's existence that had caused her to become like this. It wasn't until later that we discovered that it was all done by my good grandmother.
But my father couldn't kill his own mother for this, could he? Later, the old lady passed away, and I did it, giving him a taste of his own medicine. No one knew why my relationship with my father was so bad all those years. They simply thought it was because of my mother, which led to our shallow father-son relationship.
Two years after Jiang Xinrou's death, Jiang Yu was already seven years old. He knew the truth at that time. At such a young age, he had the idea of killing someone for the first time.
He knew that his father could not kill his mother, but he was different. He had lost his mother, so he had to make the person who made him lose his mother pay the price.
He asked Dr. Sun for a colorless and odorless poison and gave it to the old lady. This poison only needs to be taken once and does not need to be taken every day. After three years, the poison will naturally cause death.
However, this poison is very mild and there will be no pain when you die. You may fall asleep one day and never wake up.
He poisoned her to avenge his mother, but chose to let her die peacefully out of consideration for their blood relationship.
Until now, Duke Jiang still doesn't know that his mother died at the hands of his son.
All we know is that at that time, the old lady of the Duke's Mansion, who had just turned fifty, passed away peacefully in her sleep.
At that time, the relationship between Duke Jiang and the old lady was extremely bad. The old lady often did not see her son. He spent all day in the martial arts training ground, and he was unwilling to make Ning Wei his legal wife.
It was during this period that Jiang Yu personally tricked the old lady into drinking the poisoned soup.
The old lady favors boys over girls. Jiang Yu has been smart since he was a child and is also very delicate. Although the old lady doesn't like Xinrou, she has no resentment towards her grandson.
So it was very easy for Jiang Yu to get close to her.
To this day, he still does not regret what he did.
The two of them sat on the swing in the yard, she leaned in his arms and listened to him talk about this.
Suddenly, a tear fell on the back of her hand. Su Wan's heart tightened and she looked up at him.
In the moonlight, his eyes were filled with moisture, and Su Wan felt very distressed.
"Wanwan, do you think what I did was right? I killed my own grandmother with my own hands."
Jiang Yu looked at her with red eyes.
Everyone in the yard was sent away, so there was no fear that anyone would overhear their conversation.
Jiang Yu also felt uncomfortable. As he grew older, he felt very conflicted.
On one side is his dearest and most loving mother, and on the other side is his blood-related grandmother who treats him well on a daily basis.
However, in order to avenge his mother, he poisoned his own grandmother.
Whenever he thought about this, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
Is it wrong or not?
"If I give you another chance to choose, will you still do the same?" Su Wan asked, reaching out and touching his face.
Jiang Yu looked at her without hesitation:
“If I had to choose again, I would still do the same thing.”
"Then what are you still struggling with? Some things, once you've already done them, even you don't regret it, so why bother letting them go? It's just a life for a life."
Su Wan could understand him very well. When you find out that your loved ones have done something irreparable behind your back, but you are unable to do it because of blood ties, standing in the position of Duke Jiang, do you really want him to kill his own mother with his own hands?
Therefore, it is understandable that Jiang Yu would do this.
However, there is still a hurdle in his heart that he cannot get over, so after so many years, he does not want to return to this home that suffocates him.
"Then do you think I'm a scary person?" Jiang Yu hugged her tightly, leaned on her shoulders, and asked softly.
He was actually very afraid that his wife would think he was a terrible person because of this, and he was very nervous.
Upon hearing this, Su Wan twisted his waist, and Jiang Yu hissed in cooperation.
"We are husband and wife. We share the same fate. Why should I be afraid of you? Besides, if I were you, no matter who hurts my loved ones, I will do whatever it takes to get back at them. If I were you, I would probably make the same choice as you."
Jiang Yu felt really warm-hearted when he heard Su Wan say that, and he held her face and kissed her.
Su Wan was stunned by his sudden kiss. When she came to her senses, he had already pried open her teeth and started kissing her deeply.
In this regard, he seemed to be self-taught. Before long, Su Wan felt that all the strength in his body had been drained away by him, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"Wanwan, can we move out quickly?" Jiang Yu really didn't want to stay in the Duke's Mansion.
Su Wan nodded, but always remembered Su's mother's advice:
"Okay, wait until this year is over, okay?"
