Chapter 50 Chapter 50 He is different from the one in my dream
The sudden appearance of the woman caught everyone off guard, and even more surprising was what she said.
If she is Jiang Wu's mother, then...
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Wu. Some were curious, some were contemptuous, some were gloating, and some were looking forward to the show.
Jiang Wu was stunned at first when he saw the woman who suddenly appeared and claimed to be his mother. Then he pushed her away coldly. "You say you are my mother? What evidence do you have?"
Liu Sanniang, who was wearing a light blue, cross-collared, long dress with winding branches and bore a striking resemblance to her, clutched her chest in disbelief. Her body swayed as if unable to withstand the blow. "Ruoruo, I'm your mother. How could you deny me?"
Anxiously and frantically, he reached out to pull her, his voice choking with sobs, "Are you still holding a grudge against me for not agreeing to let you marry your cousin? But you can't run away from home. You've been gone for so many years. Do you know how worried we've been about you? If someone hadn't seen you here this time, I wouldn't have been able to find you. Are you going to force your mother and father to death to be satisfied?"
The woman cried bitterly, and her deep love for her son did not seem fake. She seemed like an ordinary mother who was anxious because her daughter was missing.
Gao Lang's face wrinkled. "Sir, would you like me to take that woman away?"
He didn't believe that such a coincidence could happen in the world, and was afraid that someone was behind it.
"No need." Because Xie Ji believed in her and would definitely handle this sudden accident.
Unlike his calm demeanor, Shen Tingxue, with her nails gripping the back of the chair, looked at the woman who came in, her brows slightly knitted.
She remembered that she hadn't made any arrangements, so where did this woman come from? Then her brows relaxed again, and a crazy smile appeared in her eyes.
No matter who arranges it, as long as that party is beneficial to oneself, it is fine.
She just didn't believe that her luck could keep going up.
Liu Qing, who was sitting high up in the hall, looked at the woman who suddenly rushed in. He felt that the case might take a turn for the worse, and slammed the gavel in his hand, "Who is this person? Tell me your name quickly!"
Liu Sanniang, tears streaming down her face, trembled with fear. She fell to her knees with a plop and trembled as she said, "I am from Sanwang Village. My surname is Liu, and I am called Liu Sanniang. My husband's surname is Jiang."
Then he looked at Jiang Wu expectantly, tugged at her sleeve and asked her to kneel down with him. "This is my daughter, Jiang Yue, nicknamed Ruoruo. I don't know what she did wrong to end up here. But if she did do something wrong, I'm her mother. Let me atone for her, okay?"
"I only have one daughter. If she is not here, I will not live."
Jiang Wu, who had admired her performance, slowly withdrew her hand. Her usually sweet voice was now indescribably cold: "I still say the same thing. What evidence do you have to prove that I am your daughter?"
"If you don't have evidence to prove I'm your daughter, I have reason to suspect you're a human trafficker whose goal is to trick me away and sell me off."
Ever since a favored princess of Dayan sneaked out to play on the Mid-Autumn Festival and was stolen and sold by a beggar, the emperor was furious and sent the imperial guards across the country to eliminate human traffickers. During that time, anyone caught in human trafficking was immediately executed along with their entire clan.
Now, after so many years, the bloody suppression methods used at that time still make people shudder.
Liu Sanniang's face turned pale as her fingertips trembled. Tears fell like pearls from a broken string. Her lips moved as if she couldn't accept the blow at all. "Ruoruo, I'm your mother. How can you say that to me?"
"Not to mention that you look like me, just the fact that you have a crescent birthmark on your left shoulder doesn't prove that I'm your mother."
Jiang Wu did not deny it, because she did have a crescent birthmark on her left shoulder, but only people close to her knew about it.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Liu Sanniang knew that what she said was right. She reached out to pull her, "Your father was so angry when you ran away from home that he became ill. That's why he didn't come with me to look for you this time. If your father saw you back, he would definitely be very happy."
"Ruoruo, come home with me. Mother won't stop you from marrying your cousin this time, okay?"
At this time, the situation outside the Dali Temple was in complete chaos.
"No, if this is really the Prime Minister's wife's biological mother, then what happened before? Didn't they say that the Prime Minister's wife's parents died early?"
"The Yun family clearly knows the Prime Minister's wife. Could it be that the Prime Minister's wife and this lady's daughter look very similar?"
"If I had a daughter who ran away from home for a man, I would definitely break her legs to prevent her from being embarrassed."
Liu Sanniang shivered and shook her head in denial. "I don't know what happened before, but I'm sure I wouldn't mistake my daughter for someone else. There's no mother in the world who would mistake her daughter for someone else."
This time, Jiang Wu did not pull away the hand she was holding, and her non-denial was seen by others as tacit agreement.
Liu Sanniang was delighted. She didn't expect it to be so easy to accomplish. When she was about to take the person away, she suddenly met Jiang Wu's slightly sarcastic smile.
Before she could figure out the meaning of that smile, another woman rushed in with both joy and surprise, and rushed straight to Jiang Wu, "My daughter, this is great! I finally found you!"
Following behind the woman was a middle-aged man who kept repeating, "As long as you are safe, as long as you are safe."
Just as the couple appeared, another young man ran in anxiously. When he saw Jiang Wu, his eyes were red, and he tried hard not to let the tears fall. "Sister, this is great. Brother finally found you. From now on, I can explain to my parents in the afterlife."
After several people appeared one after another, claiming to be Jiang Wu's parents and brother's family members, the onlookers were all in a mess.
Then they all looked at Jiang Wu, and heard her say, "You said you were my parents, but do you have any evidence to prove you weren't lying to me?"
The woman, weeping bitterly, calmed down for a while before wiping her tears and saying, "You are my daughter, born after ten months of pregnancy. You have a crescent birthmark on your left shoulder, right?"
Jiang Wu looked at the man who claimed to be her brother with a half-smile, "What about you? What proof do you have?"
"Could it be that your proof is the same as theirs, saying that I have a crescent birthmark on my left shoulder?"
The man's pupils dilated, and he was so disbelieving that he even stumbled over his words, "How, how did you know?"
"Of course it's because." Jiang Wu took a step forward and said distressedly, "Because before you, two people had already said exactly the same thing."
"So, I'm really curious, who among you is my real family, and who among you can provide stronger evidence to prove that I am your family." Since the other party wanted to frame her in this way, she didn't mind muddying the waters.
Want to watch the fun? Of course it has to be lively and exciting to be fun.
Everything that happened here soon spread to the private room on the second floor of the teahouse not far away.
"Master, our plan has failed. I didn't expect that woman to be so cunning." The man who came to deliver the message thought that this little matter would be very simple. Who would have thought that there would be a fool who would think the same as him, turning the original plan into a joke.
What made him even more uneasy was that the adults would think he was a loser who couldn't even do such a small thing for a few hours.
He Shiyan, who was stroking the Green Ice Crack Jianzhan with his fingertips, looked at this idiot who couldn't even handle such a small matter. His eyes were cold and without a trace of warmth: "Oh, do you have any good ideas now?"
The subordinate who came to deliver the message shook his head.
"Okay, if you don't have any, go back first." He was very satisfied with today's show.
As for the bet, even though a gentleman is willing to accept defeat, it doesn't mean he has to be a gentleman.
A gentleman is bound by too many things, and is far inferior to a villain who is always worried.

After the group of people argued that they were Jiang Wu's relatives and turned the court into a scene of chaos, Liu Qing, unable to bear it any longer, slammed the gavel with a sullen face, "Come here, arrest these people pretending to be her relatives and throw them into jail!"
As the gavel fell, the reversal of today's case was truly fascinating to watch. Many people felt that Jiang Wu was really lucky. If three more people had not appeared later and claimed to be her family, the first one would have succeeded.
Good luck?
Jiang Wu doesn't think there is such a thing as good luck in the world. It's just a matter of preparing for a rainy day.
After Liu Sanniang appeared, she signaled to Tan Yun in the crowd and asked her to find a few people to pretend to be her relatives.
It's easy to be believable by one person, but when a bunch of people claiming to be her parents appear, the first person becomes clumsy and ridiculous.
Gao Lang, who witnessed the whole process, was so surprised that he wanted to slap his thigh. When he was about to find someone to talk to, he turned around and found that the adult who was originally sitting on the chair was gone.
The sky has been gloomy since this morning, and by the time we adjourned, the clouds could no longer hold back the heavy rain.
Jiang Wu, who was waiting for Tan Yun to come back from borrowing an umbrella, was standing under the eaves waiting for the rain. If the carriage was closer, he could have gone through in the rain, but he was worried about traffic jams, so he asked the coachman to drive the carriage into the alley and stop.
As the rain grew heavier and the temperature around her continued to drop, a cloak was draped over her shoulders.
When I turned my head, I saw the man's smooth jawline and a green bamboo oil-paper umbrella shielding his head from the rain.
"Madam, would you like to come with me?" The usually cold voice, accompanied by the endless falling rain, actually seemed a bit gentle.
Jiang Wu was about to say that Tan Yun would be back with an umbrella soon, but he heard him say, "I've already asked Tan Yun to go back in the carriage first."
That being the case, Jiang Wu wasn't such a pretentious person, she just couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
You have to know that before in the court, if he had not produced the marriage certificate with himself, or changed the surname on the marriage certificate, he could have been with Shen Tingxue openly.
When she walked out from under the eaves, even though the umbrella was mostly tilted towards her, her clothes were still quite wet from the rain.
"There are clean clothes inside. Do you want to change into them?" Xie Ji was worried that she might misunderstand, so he explained, "I had these prepared after we got married. There have never been any other women's clothes in the carriage before, and I have never let other women ride in this carriage."
When he handed the clothes to her, Jiang Wu suddenly remembered something that she had always ignored.
That is, why was she so determined that he would like Shen Tingxue, was it just because of that dream?
But there are obvious differences between the Xie Ji in the dream and the Xie Ji in front of me, the biggest difference is.
He would not look at her with that kind of disregarded disgust, nor did he have a close personal relationship with Shen Tingxue like in the dream, and he would not help himself.
Jiang Wu lowered his eyes and looked at the clothes he handed to him, falling into a brief thought.
