"hiss…"
After reading it, Ji Jianhong was the first to gasp, and said sarcastically, "I never thought that my aunt, who usually seems so gentle, could be so vicious!"
"Impossible! This isn't real, you must have faked it!"
Ji Siyu realized what was happening and immediately pointed at Ji Minxiu, shouting excitedly, "What poison? That's utter nonsense! My mom isn't senile, how could she believe such a thing!"
"Whether this video is real or not can be verified easily. Is there any need for us to fake it?"
Assistant Lin stood in front of Ji Siyu, blocking her from hurling insults at Ji Minxiu, before turning to Old Master Ji and the head of the Ji family, saying, "Old Master, Head of the family, the truth is right in front of you. Do you still think Madam Ji shouldn't be punished?"
"What a misfortune for our family! What a misfortune for our family!" Old Master Ji realized what was happening and tapped his cane with a sorrowful expression.
"That bitch, how dare she do such a thing! I was so wrong to trust her."
The head of the Ji family was furious, but when he looked at Ji Minxiu, he felt a little embarrassed as he thought of the accusations he had just made to him.
If Ji Minxiu hadn't been lucky enough to get the antidote, he would definitely be dead if he hadn't woken up in time today.
Moreover, he almost died twice.
If it were him, he would probably have shot Fang Xiulian dead on the spot, and wouldn't have given her a chance to live.
“Dad, there is no such thing as Gu magic in this world. It’s all a lie. Even if Mom really put Gu on him, she was deceived and it’s impossible for her to actually harm him.”
Upon hearing the words of the Ji family head, Ji Sinian quickly defended Madam Ji, "As for removing the oxygen tube, it's because Ji Minxiu's mother wronged her first, so it's understandable that she would hold a grudge against him. Besides, he's perfectly fine, isn't he?"
“That’s right, Dad, all of this must have been orchestrated by Ji Minxiu himself to frame Mom. You can’t be fooled by him!” Ji Siyu quickly stepped forward and said.
"Oh, you're saying that Gu magic doesn't exist? Well, that just so happens that our boss bought the same Gu from that Gu master."
At this moment, Assistant Lin took out a glass bottle containing the Stone Gu. "This is called Stone Gu. Those who are afflicted by it will quickly develop stones in their stomachs, and then rapidly absorb the body's nutrients and water, causing constipation and rapid weight loss. They will die within three years. Since you say the Gu is fake, do you dare to try it?"
The glass bottle was placed in front of Ji Sinian and Ji Siyu, and then the stone Gu inside began to roll in front of them.
Yes, they were quite certain that it was either Lint who assisted, or the stone itself that started rolling.
Because if it were due to gravity, the stone would definitely roll downwards on the slope, but... this stone is actually rolling upwards!
This doesn't look normal.
"Ah! What the hell is this thing? Take it away, take it away now!"
Ji Siyu only glanced at it before screaming in fright. Her reaction was so strong that she fell to the ground with a thud.
"Grandpa, please take a look," Assistant Lin said, handing the glass bottle to Grandpa Ji.
Old Master Ji, being a man of great experience, calmly accepted the document and examined it closely.
Sure enough, the stones inside seemed to have a life of their own, able to rotate freely on their own.
"Dad, is this really a Gu worm?" The Ji family head was also skeptical.
After a long pause, Old Master Ji closed his eyes and nodded heavily, saying, "That's right, I saw it when I was young. It's definitely a Gu worm."
"hiss…"
Upon hearing this, the head of the Ji family couldn't help but gasp.
I never imagined that something I thought only existed in legends actually exists!
"How could that be, Grandpa? How could such a thing really exist?"
Ji Siyu, however, looked completely incredulous.
"Alright, Fang Xiulian was indeed in the wrong in this matter. Although Xiao Xiu's actions were a bit extreme, they were understandable," Old Master Ji sighed.
"Grandpa, are you abandoning my mother?" Upon hearing this, Ji Siyu immediately became anxious.
“Otherwise, I’m not the victim.” After saying that, Old Master Ji glanced at Ji Minxiu.
Ji Sinian and Ji Siyu immediately understood what it meant, but they were extremely unwilling to bow down to Ji Minxiu.
"You can leave now. No matter what you say, I will not forgive you." Seeing the brother and sister looking over, Ji Minxiu immediately closed his eyes and said coldly.
“Ji…Third Brother, my mother must have been confused for a moment and was misled by someone. As long as she can provide a letter of understanding, you can name any conditions you want.” Ji Sinian took a deep breath and said, lowering his tone.
"Xiao Xiu, your older brother has begged you so much, please forgive your Aunt Fang this once, for the sake of family?"
The head of the Ji family couldn't help but speak up, "If your Aunt Fang's crimes are confirmed, it will be bad for my reputation and the reputation of the entire group."
"Okay, I'll forgive you."
Ji Minxiu stared at the head of the Ji family for a while, until his eyes began to dart away, before saying calmly, "As long as Fang Xiulian agrees to let my mother be buried in the Ji family's ancestral tomb, I will let her go."
It was his mother's last wish to be buried in the Ji family's ancestral graves. In the past, he wouldn't have cared too much about it, but things are different now.
After experiencing the time-traveling incident involving the safety buckle, he began to believe in these bizarre and fantastical things. Perhaps... perhaps his mother was watching him from somewhere, waiting for him to fulfill his promise.
Therefore, he was willing to endure this grievance and use this opportunity to exchange for his mother's chance to enter the Ji family ancestral graves.
Once his mother is buried in the Ji family's ancestral tomb, he will no longer be obsessed with the position of heir, no longer be bound by constraints, and will be able to do whatever he wants.
“Okay.” Ji Siyu agreed immediately without much thought. “It’s just entering the ancestral graves, what’s so difficult about that?”
"What do you know?"
However, Old Master Ji said in a deep voice, "Mistresses and concubines cannot be buried in the ancestral graves. If Xiao Xiu's mother wants to be buried in the ancestral graves, Fang Xiulian must admit that she is only a second wife and not the first wife, and Xiao Xiu's status will no longer be that of an illegitimate child, but a legitimate child born in wedlock."
"So that's what you were after! I thought you were just being filial, but in the end, you're just trying to gain benefits for yourself!" Upon hearing this, Ji Siyu immediately became sarcastic towards Ji Minxiu.
Upon hearing Old Master Ji's words, Ji Minxiu was shaken, a wave of sadness and sorrow washing over him.
Previously, he had never understood why his mother was so insistent on entering the Ji family's ancestral graves.
If his mother wants a good burial plot, he can work hard to make it happen, and he can have as big a plot as she wants.
Now he understood that all of this was for him!
She didn't want him to be treated as an illegitimate child; she wanted him to live in this world with dignity as a legitimate child.
It turns out that even on her deathbed, her mother was still thinking about him; it turns out she wasn't just an alcoholic, she also loved him.
However, life was too hard, and while she was alive, she couldn't control her emotions.
She blinked hard, forcing back the tears.
He didn't explain further, only saying calmly, "You just need to say whether you agree or not."
