In an instant, the room was in chaos.
Guo Honglei arrived first, and Nanny Pan was still kneeling and begging. He saw that his son's left arm was injured, his snow-blue coat was stained with blood, and he was struggling desperately, crying at the top of his lungs, his face flushed red.
Guo Honglei's face was instantly filled with rage, his eyes fierce as he shouted, "Stop! Let go of the child immediately! If you have any complaints, just come at me. Torturing an innocent baby is nothing."
Jiang Yushan held her nephew's chest with her left hand, pressing the baby flat on her lap. Her right hand grasped the open pair of scissors, the sharp tip of the blade pressed firmly against the baby's neck. Veins bulged on her forehead and neck, and she screamed hoarsely, "Stop!"
"No one is allowed to come here!"
"Second Young Master, you'd better stop right now and don't force me." Jiang Yushan seemed half mad, half crying. She clutched the scissors tightly and said coldly, "You're right. I really don't have the ability. Not only do I have no ability, I'm also extremely timid and can't stand being frightened. When I'm frightened, my hands shake. If my hands shake, the scissors might stab my nephew's neck. It would be a bloody mess and how disgusting."
"you--"
More than ten feet away, the tip of the knife pressed against his son's neck. Despite his martial arts prowess, Guo Honglei was wary of endangering his child's life. Without absolute certainty, he dared not act rashly. His brow furrowed, his chest heaving violently. He paused, closely watching the other woman's every move, and said in a deep voice, "Second Miss, you'd better not be impulsive. Calm down. We can discuss everything."
Jiang Yushan smiled sadly, sighed softly, and ignored Nanny Pan. She asked dejectedly, "Discuss? How can we discuss it? You and her even have a child. Can you really divorce her?"
Just as he finished speaking, Jiang Yushu arrived. She took a closer look and saw that the child was injured. Her heart ached, her eyes bloodshot, her mind blank, and she shouted with red eyes, "Come at me if you want to kill me! Let the child go! He's so young and hasn't even learned to speak yet. How on earth has he offended you? Let the child go! Come at me if you want to vent your anger!"
"stop!"
Jiang Yushan pursed her lips, a half-smile on her face, and studied her terrified sister with amusement. She tilted her head and said, "If you dare to come any closer and scare me to the point of trembling, the scissors will go in, and you'll be the one who killed the child."
"Don't panic, you have to stay calm." Guo Honglei grabbed his wife and tried his best to control his anger. He urged her, "We should act according to the situation and try to calm her down. Don't make her angry."
Jiang Yushu had to stop, unable to control herself, and nodded with tears in her eyes, answering in a trembling voice: "Okay, okay."
Soon after, Wang, Wang Qiaozhen, Jiang Shisen and his wife, and others also arrived. They were all stunned and in disbelief. When they came to their senses, they immediately started to give advice.
Wang was old, and seeing her grandson suffer, her heart was beating fast, and she almost couldn't breathe. She asked, "Second Miss, what on earth do you want to do? Let go, let go of Ye'er, sit down, sit down and talk!"
Guo Hongzhe and Guo Hongxuan supported their mother on both sides, terrified and trying to dissuade her.
"You bastard!"
"Yushan," Jiang Shisen said, his face livid as he scolded, "What are you doing? Let go of the child immediately! He's your nephew, your own nephew! Are you crazy?"
"Second sister, if you don't let go of my nephew, there will be no end to this today!" Jiang Mingcheng tried to grab the scissors, but was stopped by Guo Honglei.
Mrs. Xu was at a loss and tried to persuade him nervously, "Shan'er, you are confused. Let go of the child and listen to your mother. Come, give the scissors to—"
"Don't even think about it!"
"Shut up, everyone, shut up!"
"No one should argue with her." Jiang Yushu's eyes were filled with tears, and her fingertips were trembling uncontrollably. She tried her best to remain calm and whispered, "Everyone, don't provoke her. When she gets mad, she'll take it out on the children."
Jiang Yushan's expression was grim, and she was panting heavily, the scissors still pressed against the baby's neck. She glared at the parents as if facing an irreconcilable enemy, her teeth chattering as she spat out words, shouting fiercely, "Back off, everyone, back off!"
"Anyway, my family has long since given up on me. My father is unfair, my mother is foolish, and my whole family is forcing me to marry. Hahaha, what am I afraid of now? I've gone through so much hardship to escape to Xicang, and you still won't give up. Not only did you chase me with your whole family, you even specifically called in the Xia guy. You're like a bunch of bandits, holding me under house arrest, and you're just short of tying me up and taking me to the mountain stronghold!"
Jiang Yushan gnashed her teeth, her face pale, her eyes fixed, she alternated between crying and laughing, and said angrily, "I said before that I would rather die than marry someone with the surname Xia, but you ignored me. Damn it, you all deserve to die!"
"No, no, Shan'er, you misunderstood." Madam Xu shook her head repeatedly. "As the saying goes, 'Don't air your dirty laundry in public.' How could I possibly tell Zhenyun about your escape? He actually found out on his own and chased after you all the way. We only reunited when we were almost to Xicang."
Jiang Yushan curled her lips and sneered, her eyes bloodshot. "I don't believe it! Humph, this isn't the first time you've lied to me. Back then, you clearly agreed to reject the proposal from the Dongqin Marquis's Mansion, but then you turned around and secretly accepted the betrothal gift, and even ordered it to be concealed, treating me like a fool."
"Mom, this is for your own good." Mrs. Xu did not think she was wrong.
Jiang Yushan was furious and indignant. "If you really wanted to do this for my own good, why did you arrange for my sister to marry me? I blame you. It's all your fault. You were so smart that you ruined my life and made my daughter a laughing stock. The news spread among all the relatives—"
"Oh, stop talking!" Xu interrupted anxiously with a pale face.
Jiang Shisen's beard trembled, and he pointed his index finger at his second daughter. "You evil creature, you unfilial creature! Your elders have loved you in vain."
Jiang Yushan was frantic, half mad and half awake, and said with a smile, "In the past few years, my father's heart has been completely bent to his armpits. My sister is a good and proud daughter, and I am an 'unfilial evildoer.' Oh, evildoers are supposed to do bad things. Just as you wish."
"Yushan, if you really want to be a daughter-in-law of the Guo family, you can choose from my three sons. You can marry whoever you like." Wang burst into tears. If it weren't for her two sons supporting her, she would have collapsed. She was anxious and spoke without thinking. Suppressing her anger, she said carefully: "Even if it's Honglei, it's fine. I can make the decision and ask Honglei to marry you."
"I, I don't want to be a concubine." Jiang Yushan seemed to sneer, but she couldn't help being moved. She closed the scissors with a "click" and opened them with a "click", teasing everyone like a cat playing with a mouse.
Wang was eager to save Sun and said hurriedly, "If you let Ye'er go, I will immediately ask Honglei to divorce Yushu and marry you instead. How do you think?"
Although Wang Qiaozhen was dissatisfied with Jiang Yushu and often targeted her over trivial household matters, she had no intention of killing her. She agreed with her mother-in-law to calm the madwoman and said, "Yushan, calm down. As long as you are willing, a divorce letter is all it takes. It's not difficult."
"real?"
"No, it's impossible. You're lying, you're definitely lying too, just like my mother, deliberately trying to trick me." After saying this, Jiang Yushan became irritable again, her eyes dark, and she sneered, "Don't even think about lying to me! I don't believe a single word of it!"
Everyone tried to persuade him and approached him several times, but they were scared away by the scissors. Guo Honglei repeatedly pushed his father-in-law and mother-in-law back, and asked angrily, "What do you want?"
"Jiang, sister," Jiang Yushu gritted her teeth, trembling with fear, and said in a hoarse voice: "Whatever conditions you have, just put them forward. I just ask you not to hurt the child. As for the marriage, if you want to blame someone, blame me -"
"It's your fault!"
Jiang Yushan was hysterical, "You are so shameless! You took away everything that belongs to me!"
"Yes, yes, I was wrong. I'm sorry." Jiang Yushu stared at the child intently, fearing that the other party would kill the baby to vent her anger. Her mind was racing, "I know I deserve to die. I will be beaten, scolded, or cut as you wish. I'll leave it to you, sister." She raised her hands, raised her face to expose her neck, and tentatively walked forward.
"Sister, come here. Only by killing me can you completely vent your anger and hatred."
Jiang Yushan had been suppressed for years and hated her sister to the core, "You deserved to die!"
"Yes, I deserve to die." Jiang Yushu approached step by step, sweating profusely.
Guo Honglei subconsciously raised his hand, intending to pull his wife back, but finally lowered it, clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, and stared at the madman.
The baby's left arm was injured, and his neck was punctured, bleeding. He turned his head and looked longingly at his familiar family. Gradually, his legs became weaker, his face flushed, and his voice became hoarse from crying.
The child's painful cries, one after another, were like knives stabbing the mother's heart, making her anxious and anxious. Jiang Yushu held her breath, observing the child's expression, and slowly approached, always risking exposing her neck.
Everyone had their own thoughts and watched with bated breath.
Unexpectedly, when they were half a foot away from the bed, Jiang Yushan suddenly shouted, "Kneel down!"
"You--" Guo Honglei just opened his mouth, but saw his wife kneel down immediately. His throat suddenly became choked and he gnashed his teeth in anger.
"Yushu--" Wang and the others were helpless and no one dared to blink.
When a baby sees a familiar relative approaching, he becomes happy instinctively, kicks his legs, struggles hard, and tries desperately to pull out his arms to be held, crying "woo woo wa wa ~" for help.
For the sake of her child, Jiang Yushu endured the humiliation and knelt without hesitation. She continued to move forward on her knees, racking her brains to steady the other person. "Sister, I have always felt sorry for you over the years."
Seeing her sister kneeling before her, Jiang Yushan felt extremely happy, elated, and even excited. Her bloodshot eyes were unusually bright. "Hmph, you've always been so sorry to me!"
"Yes, you are right."
As the two sides drew closer, Jiang Yushu's heart pounded like a drum. She pleaded, "Actually, I've always wanted to return Honglei to you, but the Guo family was previously subject to exile, and our movements were restricted by the government, preventing us from leaving. That's why I haven't been able to return him." Five feet, three feet, two feet, Jiang Yushu, fully alert, continued to move. "It wasn't until the end of last year that the emperor pardoned us. Now, your Honglei, known as Captain Guo, has become... cough, cough."
"What position did you take?" Jiang Yushan's tone was like a dream, she was in a daze, her mind was in a mess.
"Qian Hu." Jiang Yushu finally moved in front of the other party, gritted her teeth, and was about to take action when -
Mrs. Xu was worried about her daughter and blurted out, "Shan'er, be careful!"
Jiang Yushan shuddered, waking from a dream. Fury raged. She lowered her right elbow, moving it slightly back to gather strength, and fiercely stabbed the scissors at the baby's neck, screaming, "Liar! You're a liar too—ah!"
In a split second, Jiang Yushu lunged with all her might. Seizing the moment the man moved the scissors slightly away, she desperately grabbed the scissors with her right hand, only to be pierced through the palm of her hand! Enduring the pain, she desperately pulled the man's left arm away to prevent the child from being strangled, cursing furiously:
"Let go, lunatic, you lunatic!"
"Everything I have was earned through hard work. It wasn't picked up for free. No one can take it away from me!"
"You want to sit back and reap the benefits? You're just dreaming!"
Almost at the same time as his wife pounced, Guo Honglei followed quickly, and was ruthless in his rage. He first kicked the scissors, knocked them away and snatched them away, then grabbed Jiang Yushan away from his wife and children, picked her up and threw her against the screen!
"ah--"
With a flurry of "bangs" and "cracks," Jiang Yushan knocked over the screen frame and fell to the ground. Her upper arm was intact, but her forearm was bent backward, clearly broken. She clutched the wound, rolling around and wailing miserably.
"Shan'er!" Xu's face turned pale and she squatted down hurriedly to support her.
"Second, second sister? Eldest sister, how is the child?" Jiang Mingcheng looked at his eldest sister and her child, then at his second sister, his steps hesitant and uneasy.
"Yer! My poor grandson, you have suffered."
"Second sister-in-law, are you okay?"
"Where are you injured?" Wang and others rushed forward.
Jiang Yushu held the child in her arms, tears streaming down her face, choking with sobs.
Guo Honglei held his son's arm wound with his left hand and covered his wife's palm wound with his right hand. He had no time to investigate. He turned around and shouted, "Where's the doctor? Call the doctor immediately!"
The old housekeeper had already dismissed the rest of the servants. Upon hearing this, he pushed Fang Sheng, who was carrying the medicine box, and hurriedly replied, "Yes! Old Fang, go in and save them quickly. It's up to you."
Fang Sheng had been waiting for a long time. He hurried in and started to provide treatment.
Amidst the noise and chaos, only Jiang Shisen stood there with a gloomy expression.
In a moment, he suddenly grabbed his second daughter and slapped her hard. After the loud slap, Jiang Yushan's mouth cracked and she subconsciously called out, "Mom!"
"Sir, please show mercy." Xu tried to block him left and right.
Jiang Shisen was humiliated and waved his step-wife away, gritting his teeth and saying, "This evil creature has repeatedly acted recklessly, causing unrest in our home. Today, she has committed an unforgivable sin. She cannot be allowed to stay. Get out of the way, and don't let anyone stop me. I'm going to beat this evil creature to death. Kill her and we'll have peace and tranquility!"
"No, no!"
"Dad, please calm down."
The three members of the family pushed and shoved each other. Jiang Shisen slapped his second daughter repeatedly, and picked up the broken wooden bars of the screen frame and beat her all over the face.
"Why did you hit me? You hit someone again. What did I do wrong?" Jiang Yushan always felt that she was wronged. She dodged left and right, her face twisted, and she fought back repeatedly. She hugged her father's legs with one hand, raised her head, glared at him and shouted, "I hate you, you biased old man, you don't deserve to be my father!"
"Evil obstacle, evil obstacle."
Jiang Shisen was so angry that his vision went dark and he almost fainted. For a moment, he really wanted to kill his relatives for the sake of justice. He pulled out his leg and kicked hard!
"I hate--" Jiang Yushan was kicked down and fell on the broken screen. A long iron nail pierced the back of her head. Her cursing stopped abruptly. Her whole body twitched a few times, and she kicked her legs. She died with her eyes open.
"Shan'er?"
"What's wrong with you?" Xu was stunned.
Jiang Mingcheng squatted down in panic, mustered up the courage to check, and reported tearfully, "My second sister was pierced by a nail in the back of her head. She seems to be dead. What should I do?"
Mrs. Xu fell to the ground, trembling like a sieve. She reached out to feel her daughter's pulse. After a while, she suddenly threw herself on her daughter, her heart broken, crying out: "Shan'er, my darling, I worked so hard to raise you, but now I have to die young. Oh my God, my poor child!"
After all, they were his own flesh and blood. Jiang Shisen was stunned, breathless, and said in a trembling voice: "The kick I just gave was not, was not -" He paused and sighed, "Never mind, it seems that this is God's will. The evil creature who came to collect debts, the unfilial thing, really can't be kept."
"Eldest sister, second sister is dead!" Jiang Mingcheng burst into tears.
"ah?"
"What?" Jiang Yushu's family looked at each other, and then their expressions changed.
Wang had a blank expression on her face and didn't turn around. She immediately put on a loving smile and focused on comforting her little grandson, constantly soothing him.
Before Guo Honglei could come to his senses, he suddenly saw his mother-in-law let go of her daughter's body, stood up, and rushed towards his father-in-law, scratching and hitting him, shouting in grief and anger:
"Jiang Shisen, you have to compensate my daughter!"
"I'm going to fight you!"
