[Chapter 224: Scholar Meets Soldier]
Ni Lu walked into the room and saw Mrs. Jiang who was going crazy.
The disheveled woman was holding two dolls in her arms, her eyes were bloodshot, and she was waving a fruit knife in her hand at the servants.
"No one is allowed to take my daughter away!"
"Don't be afraid, baby. Mom will definitely protect you!"
The room was crowded with servants, all of them were in a panic, running around for fear of being stabbed by the crazy Mrs. Jiang.
Ni Lu frowned and ordered, "Find two people to hold Madam Jiang down. I will give her an acupuncture right away."
Jiang Wensheng brought two bodyguards and himself and went forward to control Mrs. Jiang.
"Ahhh! Let me go! Both of you let me go!"
The two dolls in her arms fell to the ground. Mrs. Jiang was terrified and struggled desperately.
Ni Lu took out a few silver needles and accurately inserted them into several acupuncture points of Mrs. Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang suddenly calmed down and fell limply into Jiang Wensheng's arms.
"Lay her flat on the bed. I'm going to continue the acupuncture."
Two hours later.
Ni Lu wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a long sigh of relief, "Okay, I've finally stabilized Mrs. Jiang's mood. As long as she's not stimulated, she won't have another attack for at least half a year."
Jiang Wensheng looked at his pale mother lying on the bed with a serious expression, "Mr. Ni, is there any way to cure my mother's depression?"
Ni Lu shook his head and sighed, "Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. No matter how many medicines Madam Jiang takes, it will be useless. If we can't find the heart medicine, Madam Jiang will become a complete lunatic in three years at most."
"My mother's concern is about my two lost sisters." Jiang Wensheng's eyes were slightly hot, and he tightened his hands hanging by his side. "We have been looking for many, many years, but there is no news at all."
If I really can't find her, can I just watch my mother become crazy?
Jiang Wensheng felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
There is also a strong sense of guilt and self-blame.
If he had not taken his older sister out of the province for a trip, she would not have gotten lost. If he had learned his lesson and stopped his younger sister from studying abroad, she would not have disappeared.
It's all his fault. He's not a good brother.
Although Ni Lu knew something about the Jiang family losing their two daughters, he could not intervene and could not provide any useful information.
"Mrs. Jiang, please call me anytime if there is any further situation." Ni Lu patted Jiang Wensheng on the shoulder and left the Jiang family.
Jiang Yirou was originally discussing cooperation with a client, but when she learned that Mrs. Jiang had a depression attack, she immediately rushed back.
"Brother, how is Mom?" She grabbed Jiang Wensheng's hand, her face full of anxiety, "I'll go upstairs to see Mom."
Jiang Wensheng stopped her: "Mr. Ni has been here, and Mom just went to bed, so don't go yet."
"Is mom okay?" Jiang Yirou was still worried.
"Mr. Ni said that if we can't find the medicine for my mother's recovery, she will become a complete lunatic in three years at most." Jiang Wensheng sat on the sofa, covering his face with his crossed hands, his voice full of weakness.
Jiang Yirou's eyes twinkled as she consoled him, "It's okay. There are still three years left. I believe we will find A-Yu and Xiao-Shu within three years."
Jiang Wensheng pulled the corners of his mouth, smiling bitterly, "I've been looking for him for so many years, but there's no news. He might have already..."
He didn't dare to think about that result, but that didn't mean it didn't exist.
He couldn't imagine how devastated his mother would be if his two younger sisters had really passed away.
"It's not a solution to go on like this, brother. How about this?" Jiang Yirou bit her lip and said, "Let's find someone to pretend to be Ah Yu."
Jiang Wensheng raised his eyes, looking surprised, "What?"
Jiang Yirou said seriously, "Mom's depression is getting worse. We can't keep looking like this. What if she gets stimulated again and becomes crazy? That would be bad. Xiaoshu had grown up when she disappeared, so we can't find someone to pretend to be her. But when Yu went missing, she was only five or six years old, so her appearance must have changed a lot. As long as we do a fake paternity test and tell Mom that Yu has been found, she won't recognize her."
Jiang Zhenhua, who was rushing home, just happened to hear Jiang Yirou's proposal and frowned, "Will this work? If Wei Yu knew the truth, it would probably irritate her even more."
Lan Weiyu is Mrs. Jiang's name.
Jiang Yirou analyzed, "Dad, this is the best solution at the moment. Although Elder Ni said that it will take another three years for Mom to become crazy, there are too many variables during this period. We must first stabilize Mom's emotions and cure her depression. As long as we keep it a secret, how will Mom know?"
Jiang Wensheng nodded and agreed to the proposal. "Yirou is right. This is the most feasible way at the moment."
"Okay, this is the only way." Jiang Zhenhua agreed.
Jiang Yirou's eyes turned and she spoke in a gentle voice, "Dad, brother, since you are planning to find someone to impersonate A-Yu, you can't just pick anyone. I do have someone I can recommend. She is a friend I met in Europe. Her parents died when she was young. She is an orphan. She is about the same age as A-Yu and we are very good friends. I told her about our family situation. Maybe we can let her try."
Jiang Zhenhua nodded and said, "Okay, then you can invite someone to our house some other day to show us around."
"Okay, I'll call her first."
The moment Jiang Yirou turned around, the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
…
Gubei No.1.
Lin Ze brought Hua Yurou and his daughter to visit Lin Yin.
Lin Yin was a little confused. Today was a working day, so Lin Ze shouldn't have time.
She poured two cups of tea and handed them to them, and asked, "Brother, how come you have time to come here?"
Lin Ze and Hua Yurou looked at each other, both of them had indescribable expressions on their faces.
Lin Yin guessed, "She went to your place, right?"
Lin Ze nodded, "Well, mom and aunt are living in the house, it's not very convenient with so many people, so I'll take your sister-in-law and Xixi to stay in a hotel for a few days."
The problem might not be that simple, but Lin Ze was unwilling to say more, and Lin Yin would not ask more questions.
She asked, "When do they plan to go back?"
Hua Yurou held Xixi in her arms and complained in a low voice: "Aunt has been instigating mother-in-law to come to you to release Sun Qing'er from the mental hospital, otherwise she won't go back. Moreover, she called her hometown yesterday and wanted to call all the aunts and uncles to the capital to put pressure on you. What a shameless family!"
Lin Yin: “…”
"Xiaoyin, what are you going to do?" Lin Ze had a headache. Facing Chen Aihua's unreasonable throwing tantrums and his aunt's instigation, he really had no way to deal with it. He couldn't take any action. If he tried to reason with them, they would use filial piety to pressure him. Once he talked back, they would scold him for forgetting his mother after getting married and put the blame on Hua Yurou.
It's like a scholar meeting a soldier, and he can't explain his reason clearly.
