The easiest person to deal with in the fourth branch of the Jiang family is naturally Jiang Tingjun, who has no ability to protect himself.
The deal was done, and Jiang Tingjun was sold off far away. Jiang Mingrui and Jin Huifang, the couple who lost their child, must be devastated.
If things don't go well and it becomes a big deal, the boss will be there. Zhuang Meixue will be unharmed. But the brotherhood between Jiang Mingrui and Jiang Mingzhe will definitely be affected.
The Jiang brothers are at odds; trouble is bound to be brewing in the Jiang family sooner or later.
Thinking of the Jiang family's downfall, Zhuang Meixue laughed again.
"You're insane, a madman," Jiang Mingzhe said, turning and leaving.
This woman's mind is twisted; it's a waste of time to talk to her.
After leaving Qushui Courtyard, Jiang Mingzhe arrived at Fanghua Courtyard. He came to apologize on behalf of Zhuang Meixue.
Jin Huifang's emotions, which had just calmed down, surged again with the announcement: "Let him go."
Jin Huifang didn't want to see anyone from the second wife's family.
Jin Huifang lost her temper and ignored everyone. Jiang Mingrui and Jiang Mingzhe are brothers born of the same mother; they shouldn't act like this.
After calming Jin Huifang down, Jiang Mingrui went to the living room to see Jiang Mingzhe.
"Fourth brother, I'm sorry. I didn't manage your second sister-in-law well," Jiang Mingzhe sincerely apologized. To show his sincerity, he also brought three large suitcases.
The box was opened, revealing gold and silver jewelry, fine silks and satins, antiques and other treasures.
The most valuable items are the deeds to the two shops, which belong to the Jiang family's two most profitable shops in Jiangcheng.
"You think I'll let Zhuang Meixue go with this little bit of junk? Let me tell you, no way. The Jiang family is afraid of the Zhuang family. I, Jin Huifang, am not. I'll fight Zhuang Meixue to the death!" Jin Huifang rushed in and overturned the box.
Zhuang Meixue could not possibly use these things to buy her son's life.
Jiang Mingrui stopped Jin Huifang from hitting Jiang Mingzhe, saying, "Second brother, Huifang's meaning is my meaning. You can take these with you."
"Consider these as gifts from your second uncle to your nephew for his first birthday celebration." Jiang Mingzhe brought the box, but he didn't intend to take it back.
Jiang Mingzhe looked at Jin Huifang, "Fourth sister-in-law, your second sister-in-law has been married into the Jiang family for over ten years. She has to take care of everything big and small in the house every day, and her life is not easy."
Of course, most of the blame lies with me. I was away from home for many years and failed to notice her grievances, her helplessness, and her suffering in time.
My first child with her was something she had been hoping for for ten years. Of course, I had been hoping for it for ten years too.
I was so grieving over losing my child that I didn't pay attention to her emotional changes. This led her down the wrong path.
It's all my fault, no matter what.
As a husband, I failed to take good care of my wife; as an elder brother, I failed to resolve the conflicts between my brothers. This has also implicated Xiao Liu.
Fourth sister-in-law, if you want to hit or punish me, do whatever you want. I'll take it all.
I hope you can spare your second sister-in-law this time, for the sake of me finding Xiao Liu.
I assure you, I will keep a close eye on her. I will not let her do anything to hurt Xiao Liu again.
Jiang Mingzhe's words moved Jiang Mingrui.
"I can forgive Zhuang Meixue, but only if she apologizes to Jun'er in front of everyone." Jin Huifang knew Zhuang Meixue's pride. Making this request would be difficult for Zhuang Meixue to agree to.
Considering Zhuang Meixue's condition, Jiang Mingzhe felt that the possibility of persuading her to agree was zero.
"I apologize to Xiao Liu on her behalf."
"Second brother, what are the conditions? I've put them here." Jin Huifang insisted on not changing them.
Jiang Mingzhe finally agreed; I don't know how he was persuaded.
On May 15th, the Jiang family visited Zhongleyuan to pay their respects.
Zhuang Meixue spoke in front of everyone.
"Fourth sister-in-law, I made a mistake in my thinking. I had been hoping for a child for over ten years, only to have it killed by someone. I dream about the child crying every night, crying for me to give birth to him?"
I couldn't sleep at night. Someone told me that my child was cursed and couldn't be born smoothly. The person who cursed him was Jun'er, but I didn't believe it. But since my child was gone, I thought I'd let Jun'er leave for two years, and then send him back after I gave birth.
Who would have thought that heartless wet nurse would be sold to human traffickers? It's all my fault for being careless and almost hurting Jun'er. I misjudged people..." Zhuang Meixue said, covering her face with her handkerchief and turning away to cry.
Standing behind Jin Huifang, Ye Yunniang saw that Zhuang Meixue's eyes showed no remorse, only a mad hatred.
"Huifang, your second aunt has apologized to you. You should also express your opinion," Old Madam Jiang urged Jin Huifang.
Jin Huifang didn't sense any genuine remorse from Zhuang Meixue's words.
That's good too, I don't have to worry about anything when I take action.
"Second Sister-in-law admitted her mistake. If I keep harping on it, it will make me seem petty. The human traffickers have been caught by Judge Bao. I believe that the fair and just Judge Bao will bring all human traffickers to justice and will not let a single bad person go unpunished."
“That’s right. A family should live in harmony. Once something is over, it’s over.” Old Madam Jiang concluded, and to ease the atmosphere at home, she even opened her storeroom.
The excuse was that the items in the warehouse had been stored for a long time and needed to be inventoried.
Each room received a lot of good stuff.
As Jiang Tingjun's wet nurse, Ye Yunniang also received a box.
Madam Jiang also rewarded Ye Yunniang with a box.
The box that Old Madam Jiang gifted contained a complete set of jewelry with auspicious cloud patterns, which was luxurious and exquisite. Ye Yunniang liked it very much and carefully put it away.
The box that Madam Jiang Si bestowed upon her was quite substantial. On top were two silver notes. Ye Yunniang, who was literate, recognized them as two thousand-tael silver notes. Below the silver notes were piles of gold beads.
Ye Yunniang reached out and grabbed a handful of golden balls; they were smooth and felt really good to the touch.
With this money, the family can buy a shop. Whether they run the business themselves or rent it out to collect rent, they'll have income.
“You like gold.” Jiang Mingzhe’s voice sounded from behind.
Ye Yunniang turned around, and Jiang Mingzhe was standing inside the house.
"Why are you here during the day?" Ye Yunniang said, taking two steps towards the door to make sure it was locked. There was no sound from outside.
"Grandma Shi is one of my people. She'll be guarding the door; no one will notice."
Jiang Mingzhe walked behind Ye Yunniang and hugged her. His burning lips landed on the back of Ye Yunniang's neck.
"No," Ye Yunniang tried to say, but Jiang Mingzhe cut her off.
...
Ye Yunniang gasped for breath, almost thinking she was going to suffocate.
"Still can't learn to breathe?" Jiang Mingzhe laughed, wanting to continue.
Ye Yunniang raised her hand to stop him, "Second Master, what brings you here?"
"I miss you." Jiang Mingzhe tightened his grip slightly, letting Ye Yunniang feel his longing.
Feeling the heat through her clothes, Ye Yunniang recalled the intimate contact they had shared that day.
Her cheeks were flushed.
Jiang Mingzhe noticed that Ye Yunniang was aroused, and his hands became more active.
"Second Master, shall we talk first?" Ye Yunniang grabbed Jiang Mingzhe's messy hand and took two steps back.
"What did you say?" Jiang Mingzhe approached and led Ye Yunniang to the bedside.
"Second Master, this isn't right. Let's just forget about it."
