Chapter 49 Chapter 49 Dog bites dog
As soon as Yun Miaomiao finished speaking, there was a commotion below.
"Tell me, if the previous case is true, then she must be an imposter, just because she is attracted by the identity of the Prime Minister's wife."
"The girl looks pretty, but how could she be so cruel as to do such a thing?"
"I say, the matter hasn't been finalized yet, how can you be sure that she is real? Are you bribed to do this?"
Yun Miaomiao, whose nails were about to break, had no idea what had happened before, but she hated the feeling of being out of control. She glanced at Jiang Wu, whose lips were paler than those of ordinary people, and a determined smile flashed in her eyes.
Because from today onwards, not only will she become the Prime Minister's wife, but she will also trample her under her feet.
Who made me envy and hate Jiang Wanwan the most when I was a child? Why were all the others money-losing goods, but she could wear new clothes and eat candy, didn't have to go out to work before dawn, and was not beaten or scolded at will?
"Sir, the family tree clearly states that I am Grandpa's granddaughter." After handing over the evidence, Yun Miaomiao turned and glared at Jiang Wu, her lips curled up in a hint of pride. "You say you are my Grandpa's granddaughter. What evidence do you have?"
Jiang Wu wasn't afraid of her provocation at all. He pulled out a family tree and said, "You have one, so why shouldn't I have one?"
Her action immediately caused an uproar. No, both of them have family trees, so who is the real one and who is the fake one?
Soon, two copies of the family tree were placed in front of Liu Qing.
It was clearly written on Yun Miaomiao's copy that she was Yun An's granddaughter, and Yun An's son and daughter-in-law were Liu Cuihua and Yun Dashan.
Jiang Wu's copy was quite interesting, because Yun An had written "marrying into the wife's family" on it.
After being authenticated by the master, both family genealogies were confirmed to be authentic.
I just don’t know which one is true and which one is false, or maybe both are true. That would be interesting.
Liu Qing put down Jiang Wu's portion, raised his hand and gently moved his goatee to look at Yun Miaomiao, who had a tense face and was extremely nervous.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Jiang Wu say, "You said you were Yun An's granddaughter. Do you know who your mother is and who your father is?"
Yun Miaomiao thought she was mentally ill, otherwise why would she ask such a question, "Isn't it written in the family tree? If you can't read, I can read it out to you."
She was illiterate to begin with, but luckily on the way to the capital, someone arranged by a noble person taught her a few words. You know, even the village chief's daughter couldn't read, so how could Jiang Wanwan compare to her?
When she said so proudly that Yun Dashan and Liu Cuihua were her parents, Jiang Wu suddenly recalled some past events with a heavy face.
After her grandfather passed away, Yun Dashan and the village chief came to take away her house and land before the seventh day had passed. She had originally thought that he was going to wipe out her niece's family, and that the village chief had been bribed by Yun Dashan to not help her. But when Yun Miaomiao saw the family tree that stated that she was her grandfather's granddaughter, she suddenly became confused.
All of this was probably a long-planned plot. Technically speaking, Yun Dashan had no blood relationship with her. She called him "Uncle" because ever since her grandfather married into the Jiang family, the Yun family had gone crazy, saying there was no reason for a man to marry into the Jiang family. If he did, he would have no roots left.
And Yun Dashan was the child that the Yun family had brought from other relatives for Grandpa to keep as his heir. When Grandpa found out about this, instead of being happy, he flew into a rage against the Yun family and even had a falling out.
Who could have thought that the Yun family would be so shameless as to secretly register Yun Dashan as his son without Grandpa's knowledge.
Jiang Wu, suppressing his anger, stared at her, as if chatting casually, "Do you know what Grandpa used to do, and why he got engaged to the Xie family?"
"My grandfather is a doctor. The two families made the engagement because he accidentally saved Grandfather Xie." Yun Miaomiao raised his chin proudly, like a general who was sure of victory.
I felt that she was as stupid as a pig, otherwise why would she always ask such funny questions.
Jiang Wu chuckled: "Are you sure?"
Yun Miaomiao met her smile and suddenly felt uneasy, as if she had dug a trap specifically for her to fall into. She also felt that she was worrying about her own misfortune. "Of course what I said is true."
"But." Jiang Wu sighed helplessly, his eyes mocking as if he was looking at a jumping clown. "It wasn't Grandpa who saved Xie's grandfather, but Grandma. And Grandma, she is the doctor."
It was just because my mother and grandmother always dressed up as men when they went out, and sometimes used my grandfather's name, so many people in Yunjia Village thought that the real doctor was my grandfather, not my grandmother.
Yun Miaomiao, who felt no pain even when digging her fingernails into her palms, raised her voice uncontrollably, sharp and piercing, "How is this possible! There's no way in the world that a woman would be a doctor."
Yun Miaomiao then realized that she had most likely fallen into a trap she had set. Anger destroyed the original gentleness of her beautiful features, and she gnashed her teeth in a ferocious manner. "I don't know why you want to deceive me, but I am very sure that it was my grandfather who saved Grandfather Xie, and the doctor is also my grandfather."
"Then I'm curious. Since your grandfather saved her, why is Jiang written on the marriage certificate instead of Yun? Why don't you explain this to me?"
"I tell you, I won't be fooled easily." Yun Miaomiao gritted her teeth and responded to her smile. She felt as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her whole body was cold.
No, how could the name written on the deed be Jiang instead of Yun?
She must be thinking of using this to cheat her, just like before. She must not be fooled, and must not lose her composure.
Shen Tingxue, who was biting her fingers, thought she would be useful, but it turned out that she was a complete fool!
Didn't she have it? Was she led by Jiang Wu from the very beginning?
And who would have thought that the name written on the marriage certificate was Jiang, not Yun.
No, she absolutely could not let Jiang Wu win, and certainly not let her be so proud of herself. She then waved over Qiaozhi and asked her to come over and whisper a few words in her ear.
Gao Lang, standing behind the screen, was very confused. If there was a surname on the marriage certificate, why didn't the lady clarify it earlier? This way, the matter wouldn't have become so serious.
Xie Ji picked up the pine moss tea beside him and took a sip. He looked relaxed and comfortable, and his eyes couldn't hide his surprise for her.
Everyone thought that she was forced to come to the Dali Temple to seek justice, but the facts were completely the opposite. She did all this on purpose.
Even when Yun Yaozu lost control after drinking last night, it was because he didn't want to define this matter as an ordinary romantic scandal, but to directly report it to the Dali Temple and use the hands of the Dali Temple and the people to judge the evil deeds done by the Yun family.
She took everyone into account, including her husband, of course.
Xie Ji had to admit that his wife was an extremely smart person.
In other words, if you were really stupid, you wouldn't be able to make it all the way to Chang'an on your own.
Yun Miaomiao's teeth were chattering. When she said the surname was written on the marriage certificate, her eyes went dark and her body trembled like catkins in the wind.
No, how could there be a name written on the marriage certificate? She remembered that there was no name on the marriage certificate at all, otherwise how could their family be so bold as to impersonate.
Soon, when the marriage certificate was handed over, it was seen that the name "Jiang" was written in black and white, not Yun.
This was also the basis for Jiang Wu's bet with He Shiyan. Otherwise, who would dare to pluck the hair of a tiger?
Those who didn't expect things to turn out like this just felt like they were eating one bite of melon after another.
"So they're trying to steal the other man's fiancée status and then turn the tables on him. Women are truly the most vicious."
"This Prime Minister's wife is so unlucky that she has such a relative."
"If it weren't for the fact that the Prime Minister's wife's grandmother had written about it in front of me on the marriage certificate, I'm afraid I would have let this family, who are worse than animals, get what they want."
After seeing the marriage certificate, Yun Miaomiao completely collapsed, unable to accept it. "You're lying! I don't believe what you said! There's no name written on the marriage certificate."
"It's you! You must have tampered with this, right?"
Jiang Wu spread out his hands, looking very innocent. "It's written in black and white, how could I possibly fake it? Or do you think I'm capable of forging it?"
"It's you! You must have done something!" After Yun Miaomiao was dragged away unwillingly, Jiang Wu suddenly covered his stomach and said with an unpleasant expression, "My stomach feels a little uncomfortable. Can you let me go down and rest for a while?"
Liu Qing, who had wiped his cold sweat countless times, agreed without hesitation. Who could have thought that the truth of the case would be so simple in the end.
Just as he was about to say that the truth of the case of the true and false fiancée had been revealed and was about to leave the court, the lawyer leaned close to his ear and whispered a few words, forcing him to swallow back what he wanted to say, his expression becoming more solemn.
After leaving the court, Jiang Wu refused the bailiff's offer to lead the way and went directly to where she wanted to go.
When she came back, she happened to see the malicious intent that Chen Tingxue had not yet concealed.
And this look was also very familiar to Jiang Wu, because it was the look that Shen Tingxue used most often towards her in the past.
He looked down on her, looked down on her, and disdainfully, as if she were an ant.
But since she came back from the temple, the contrast between before and after was so different that it seemed like two completely different people. Jiang Wu hadn't seen her look at him that way for a long time.
The people who were watching the excitement originally thought that the case should be over, but they did not hear the word "adjournment" for a long time. They always felt that there would be more excitement to watch, so they did not leave.
The first part was said to those who were not hearing. Suddenly, the whole area outside the Dali Temple was as noisy as a vegetable market.
Soon, after Jiang Wu came back, the originally noisy Dali Temple became quiet. People who were far away wanted to stretch their necks as far as possible to hear clearly what they were saying.
Yun Dashan wore an honest face, his eyes filled with undisguised disappointment and pity. "Wanwan, we are a family after all. We are willing to forgive you for stealing your cousin's marriage certificate. Why did you have to make such a big fuss? What are you going to do in the future?"
Jiang Wu listened to him blaming her back and suddenly laughed, "When you wanted to sell me to Butcher Zhang for fifty taels, we were no longer a family. No, we weren't a family at all."
"Uncle, do you know that I've already sent your vicious and foolish children away?" Jiang Wu raised the corner of his lips maliciously. "Who do you think will be next?"
As soon as Jiang Wu finished speaking, Liu Cuihua, her eyes bulging with bloodshot blood, rushed out like crazy and started scratching at Yun Dashan's face, as if she wanted to perish with him. "Yun Dashan, you damned beast, give me back my son's life!"
"If you don't let my son live, you and that bastard won't live either! I want you all to be buried with my son!"
Yun Dashan was scratched on the face by Liu Cuihua who suddenly rushed out. He could no longer suppress his cowardice. Anger gathered between his eyebrows and eyes. He raised his hand and slapped her in the face, "You crazy woman, do you want to die? Don't you see where you are now?"
Liu Cuihua, whose face was knocked sideways and spit out a mouthful of blood, laughed crazily, her eyes filled with poisonous hatred. "Hahahaha, I'm a crazy woman, and you are nothing but a good person!"
"I'm telling you, don't think I don't know that you strangled my son to death a long time ago, and the bastard you're raising now is the child of you and Widow Wang!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers were all excited and were glad that they did not leave.
Jiang Wu, who was worried about being beaten by them, found a safe place and watched the dog-eat-dog fight with relish. The only thing that was missing was a handful of melon seeds in his hand, which made it a little bit of a pity.
The reason why Liu Cuihua and Yun Dashan had a quarrel was, of course, because she went to find Liu Cuihua after she left.
"Aunt, you know what? Sometimes I really feel sorry for you. You've been toiling away like a slave in the Yun family for so many years, and in the end, the son you raised with so much effort isn't your own." Jiang Wu's eyes were filled with gloating pity as she spoke. "If I were you, I'd probably fight to the death with the murderer who killed my son to get justice for that poor boy."
Liu Cuihua, who was so angry that she fell backwards, opened her mouth and spat at her, her eyes as vicious as a poisonous snake, "What nonsense are you talking about, you bitch? I tell you, don't even think about alienating the relationship between Yaozu and me. Everyone in the Yunjia Village knows that Yaozu is my son."
Jiang Wu shook his head, a look of compassion etched across his eyes. "Look, they're so sure you won't believe them that they dare to treat you so recklessly, even calling you an idiot behind your back."
"Liu Cuihua, let me tell you a secret. Your son was drowned at birth. The son you are raising now is actually the son of your husband and the village widow Wang."
"Don't be so quick to deny it. Didn't you notice that Widow Wang wasn't in the village during your pregnancy and confinement? Even your husband was often away from home during that time." Jiang Wu covered her lips and laughed, "Your husband must have told you that he found a job in town."
"But I don't have one. I rented a yard in town for Widow Wang, which is just right for her to take care of her during her confinement." Jiang Wu patiently coaxed her, like an experienced hunter luring prey into a trap.
"Don't think I'm lying to you. Haven't you ever had any doubts over the years? Or rather, haven't you ever wondered why your precious son is closer to Widow Wang than you? Even your husband, risking his face being scratched by you, has to help Widow Wang from time to time?"
Every time she said one more word, it felt like she was being slapped in the face. The burning Liu Cuihua couldn't stand it any longer and roared in anger, shaking all over, "Shut up!"
Jiang Wu sighed slowly, with pity in her eyes: "Aunt, do you know that your parents-in-law knew about this a long time ago, but they kept it a secret from you because they obviously preferred Widow Wang to be their daughter-in-law compared to you."
But she knew how to kill someone and destroy their heart in the most painful way, just like hitting a snake at its most vulnerable part.
"Shut up, I told you to shut up, did you hear me?" Although Liu Cuihua denied it, she had already believed it half in her heart, because what she said was true.
And what shocked her the most was that Yaozu did look similar to that bitch Widow Wang in some ways.
Sometimes when people become suspicious of each other, any little thing can ignite a raging fire of suspicion.
Jiang Wu knew she believed him, so he added fuel to the fire: "I know what I said is hard for Auntie to accept, but it's better than you being kept in the dark your whole life."
"Aunt, don't you want to avenge your dead son?"
Liu Qing, who was so angry that his beard was fuming, saw them openly fighting in the yamen and completely ignored him, and was about to ask someone to pull them apart.
A richly dressed woman staggered in and rushed straight towards Jiang Wu.
Her eyes were red and filled with tears, "Son, I finally found you!"
