Chapter 18: Tricks
"Yun Xi, what's going on?" Jiang Jing'an asked. Why would she investigate something that happened ten years ago?
Jiang Yunxi knew that he was a man of great righteousness, so she told him everything about her encounter with Xie Sirou's ghost that night and what had happened to her. There was nothing to hide.
Jiang Jing'an was shocked and found it unbelievable. If it was true, Marquis Wenxin was so cruel!
"Yun Xi, is this true?" the old lady asked solemnly. This was a big deal. The Wenxin Marquis's Mansion was also a century-old family. The old Wenxin Marquis had a daughter who was a queen in the palace.
"Grandma, it is precisely because it is true that I went to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion to complain. If I didn't know about this matter, it would be fine. Now that I know about such a great injustice, I can't just ignore it." Jiang Yunxi said that she would definitely take care of it.
The old lady looked at the determination and resoluteness in the woman's eyes and couldn't help but think of her grandfather. They had the same temperament. "Grandmother supports your investigation."
If the old man were here, he would definitely not stand idly by.
"Such a huge injustice really needs to be investigated!" Jiang Jing'an said indignantly. He didn't expect that the seemingly gentle and refined Marquis Wenxin could be so cruel. He watched his wife drown and wiped out the entire Xie family.
He remembered that the Xie family was a merchant family and had accumulated a lot of wealth.
"I support the investigation." Jiang Jinghuai echoed.
"I support the investigation, too." Jiang Jingyan said indignantly. He had heard a lot of dirty things, but he never expected that the well-known Wenxinhou Mansion would do such a unscrupulous thing.
Mrs. Mu felt a sharp pain in her head as she listened to their words. "How can you believe her one-sided words? A ghost telling of her grievances, can you believe such a thing? There is also a concubine in the palace in the Marquis Wenxin's mansion."
"Mother, Sister Yunxi will definitely be able to find out the truth. We must support her in her investigation." Jiang Chenyu said softly. Of course she had to support Jiang Yunxi in her investigation.
Just like my mother said, there is a concubine in the palace of Marquis Wenxin.
Jiang Yunxi's investigation has offended an important person, and she will suffer the consequences in the future.
She was so ignorant that she actually helped a ghost to seek justice and offended the Marquis Wenxin's Mansion.
Mu: “…”
How could she support Jiang Yunxi?
Qu Xinwen was slightly stunned. He never expected that the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion would stand on Jiang Yunxi's side. Are they going to confront the Marquis of Wenxin's Mansion?
"Sir Qu, I have not wronged Marquis Wenxin. If the Jingzhao Yin Mansion does not have time to investigate, then I will do it. I just hope that the Jingzhao Yin Mansion will not be biased at that time." Jiang Yunxi said seriously.
"Miss Jiang, what are you talking about? The Jingzhao Yin Mansion has always been fair and strict." Qu Xinwen said seriously.
"That's good." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
Qu Xinwen had nothing else to say, so he said goodbye and left.
After the old lady saw him leave, she looked at Jiang Jing'an and said, "Now that you're back, pick a good day to add Yun Xi's name to the family tree."
"I think today is a good day. Call the second and third wives to the ancestral hall and I will add their names myself. There is no need for any complicated ceremony." Jiang Jing'an said readily. From now on, Yun Xi will be the legitimate eldest daughter of the Duke of Yingguo's mansion.
ancestral hall.
Everyone from the first, second and third rooms has arrived.
Jiang Jingan personally added Jiang Yunxi's name to the family tree.
"Sister Yunxi's name has been added, but what about Sister Chenyu's name? She is not of the bloodline of the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion." A girl about fifteen years old said with her eyes open and an innocent look on her face in the crowd.
"Brother, this is the family tree of the Duke of Yingguo's mansion. It can only record the names of people of Jiang family bloodline." Jiang Shaoan, the second wife, said.
"That's right. Since Chenyu doesn't have the Jiang family bloodline, her name should be removed. Otherwise, it would be against the rules of our ancestors." Jiang Hean from the third house also spoke up. They had no feelings for Jiang Chenyu.
Only focus on the bloodline of the Jiang family.
"Chenyu has lived in the Duke of England's mansion for twenty-two years after all. Aren't you too cruel?" Mu couldn't help but speak out, her chest heaving with anger.
"Sister-in-law, the Duke of England's Mansion has raised her for twenty-two years and has not treated her unfairly, nor does it owe her anything. Logically, now that she knows that she is no longer a member of the Duke of England's Mansion, she should go back to her own home." Yang from the second house smiled faintly.
For so many years, Jiang Chenyu, as the eldest daughter of the Duke of Yingguo's mansion, has been in the spotlight. The Mu family treats her as the apple of their eye and has always overshadowed the girls from the second and third rooms. She has long been dissatisfied with her.
Now that she is no longer a member of the Duke of Ying's Mansion, she should not stay in the Jiang family anymore.
"Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law are right. We are not heartless people. Logically speaking, the child was given to the wrong family, so they should be exchanged and go back to their own homes." Tong from the third room also spoke.
For so many years, as the eldest daughter, Jiang Chenyu has had the best food, clothing, and resources in the mansion. I wonder how much money the Duke of Yingguo's mansion has spent.
Jiang Chenyu bit her red lip, tears welling up in her eyes. "Daddy, please cross my name off the family tree. Thank you for raising me in the Duke of Yingguo Mansion for so many years. I will move out tomorrow."
"I don't agree. Where are you going to move to by yourself?" Mu hugged her. She watched her grow up little by little for twenty-two years. Even if you raise a cat, you will have feelings for it, let alone someone she raised as her daughter.
"Chenyu will stay in the Duke of Ying's mansion for the time being." Jiang Jing'an said majestically. Even if he wanted to exchange the child back, he would have to help her find her family first. He couldn't just drive her away.
"Let Chenyu stay in the Jiang family until she finds her family." The old lady said seriously.
The second and third wives stopped talking immediately.
Jiang Yunxi did not stop them. After twenty-two years of relationship, people are all kind-hearted, and she could understand her family's actions.
But within three months, Jiang Chenyu must get married.
"It will probably be difficult to find her family. Someone deliberately switched me with her and then threw me away." Jiang Yunxi said lightly. This body was already in the home of adoptive parents when it had memories.
"Could it be her parents?" Yang questioned.
"I'm not sure, but I want to tell you one thing. Twenty-two years ago, someone tampered with the Duke of Ying's mansion, which resulted in none of the men in the family being able to marry, and none of the married daughters being able to get pregnant."
"The other party wants to completely wipe out the Duke of Ying's family."
Jiang Yunxi spoke in a serious tone. They were in the ancestral hall and everyone was there, so this was the most appropriate time to say it.
Except for the old lady, everyone else was shocked, their expressions kept changing. If they thought about it carefully, the current situation at home was exactly what Jiang Yunxi said.
Oh my God!
Someone actually tampered with the Duke of England's mansion more than 20 years ago, and they knew nothing about it.
He even tried to make the Duke of England's Mansion disappear forever. This is too vicious!
"Yunxi, your two cousins have been married for several years and have not been able to conceive. Can you help them?" Yang immediately walked up to Jiang Yunxi and looked at her expectantly.
Her daughter is not living a good life, and as a mother, she feels heartbroken and helpless.
She never stopped taking medicine and consulted various doctors, but still couldn't get pregnant. Finally, the concubine got pregnant. Isn't this the girls' problem? When she learned that her daughter was wronged in her husband's family, she didn't have the confidence to speak up again.
