"No, Ye Lei would never do that to me. He said he was sincere towards me. I'm doing this to get justice for him!"
Tong Shuirong's mother shook her head violently. She didn't think she had done anything wrong. She was doing this to seek justice for Dongfang Yelei.
Upon hearing this, the old man angrily retorted, "Seeking justice? What has the Dongfang family done to wrong Ye Lei? Do you need to seek justice for them?"
Tong Shuirong could tell that the old man was displeased, but so what?
She knew very well that what she wanted to do tonight was about to be exposed, and if she didn't speak up now, she would never have the chance again.
He then said, "No? Ye Lei just passed away, and you're already saying he's not a member of the Dongfang family. What's the point? Isn't it just that you want to take all the assets under his name and don't want to give me any of the Dongfang family's assets!"
Upon hearing this, the servants were immediately shocked.
The Second Master is not a member of the Dongfang family.
No wonder the old man bypassed the second old man and gave the position of young master directly to his grandson.
Upon hearing this, the old man's face turned extremely ugly.
I felt mostly disappointed.
If you were in someone else's shoes, how would you feel if you painstakingly planned for someone, only to have them take your good intentions for granted?
Disappointment is the least of my worries.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yi couldn't help but frown and said, "Whether Second Uncle is of the Dongfang family bloodline can be determined with just a paternity test. Do you think our Dongfang family needs to do anything about this?"
Upon hearing this, Tong Shuirong was stunned for a moment.
Yes, things are different now than before; there are paternity tests available.
For a moment, she felt a little unsure of herself.
Seeing that there were too many onlookers, Dongfang Yi glanced at the old man and said, "Someone, take the person to the old man's courtyard, and at the same time, invite Aunt's family over."
"Also, go and call Old Cheng over, and have him take a look at what the powder on the ground is!"
Upon hearing this, Tong Shuirong's face instantly turned pale.
The powder on the ground was given to her by that person, who said it was something good that could help her get justice for her man.
It's easy to imagine that it's not a good thing.
Just as Tong Shuirong was about to go and remove the powder, the servants had already helped her away.
After everyone left, Dongfang Yicai stepped forward and helped the silent old man.
He knew better than anyone how disappointed his grandfather was by Tong Shuirong's actions.
Dongfang Yi sighed and said, "Grandpa, don't worry about this."
The old man remained silent for a moment, then looked at Dongfang Yi and nodded.
"Grandpa is old, he's getting on in years."
After saying that, he let Dongfang Yi help him walk forward.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Tinglan and Gong Beize, having received a report from their subordinates, quickly got up.
Just then, Dongfang Tinglan saw Jian Yixue and the other person come out after hearing the commotion. She told them that something had happened to Tong Shuirong and that they should continue to rest while she went to see what was going on.
Upon hearing that it concerned Tong Shuirong, Jian Yixue knew that it was a matter for the Dongfang family, so she did not insist and nodded in agreement.
He instructed Dongfang Tinglan that if there was anything she couldn't resolve, she should send someone back to tell her.
Dongfang Tinglan and the other person quickly arrived at the old man's courtyard.
Upon entering, one is immediately struck by the solemn atmosphere inside.
The two exchanged a glance and walked over.
At the head of the table, the old man and the old lady sat together, with Dongfang Yi sitting on their left. The two of them naturally moved to the right and sat down.
Dongfang Tinglan glanced at Tong Shuirong, who was slumped on the ground not far away, and at Dongfang Die, who was standing expressionless not far away. She frowned slightly as she looked at Dongfang Die, who was like a walking corpse.
Just as Dongfang Tinglan was about to ask what happened, Dongfang Yi spoke first and told her everything.
Immediately, Dongfang Tinglan frowned deeply, somewhat confused about Tong Shuirong's thought process.
The Dongfang family has never wronged the couple from beginning to end.
Even now that they know their second brother isn't of the Dongfang family bloodline, and that their second uncle did to their parents and Dongfang Yi in order to gain control of the family, everyone chooses to turn a blind eye. After all, he's gone, and there's no point in dwelling on these things.
The second brother also received his due retribution, and everything was over.
Unexpectedly, my second sister-in-law was so ruthless and vicious.
Even now, they still want to harm innocent members of the Dongfang family.
It's really too hard to forgive.
Dongfang Tinglan looked at Tong Shuirong and said with great disappointment, "Second sister-in-law, you're confused! There are some things we didn't tell you because we thought that since Second Brother is no longer here, we wouldn't want to say these things and affect our relationship. But now, I have no choice but to tell you."
The old man said, "Tinglan."
“Father, even if you don’t want me to say these things, I still want to say them.”
He then looked at Tong Shuirong and said, "Do you think that Second Brother only did the kidnapping and harming of Yi'er in order to take over the family position?"
"I'm telling you, that's not all! He even conspired with outsiders to murder my parents!"
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Die's eyes lit up briefly in her daze, then dimmed again.
It seems not surprising that my father would do something like this.
After all, in his father's eyes, power and status were always the most important things.
Instead, Tong Shuirong shook her head and said, "No, Ye Lei wouldn't do that..."
Dongfang Tinglan snorted coldly, "Don't believe me?"
"If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself. The evidence is still in the tonics that your second brother gave to your parents. Do you want me to have someone force-feed it to you so you can experience it for yourself?"
Tong Shuirong immediately fell silent.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yi was shocked and asked, "Grandpa and Grandma, is what Auntie said true?"
When he came back, he didn't notice anything wrong with his grandparents, and neither his grandparents nor any of his family members had mentioned it to him.
The old man remained silent, but then he became furious and said, "Yes, how could it not be the truth! If it weren't for Old Master Cheng's timely discovery, and your aunt and cousin just happened to be back, you might not even be able to see the two of us old folks again!"
She had never agreed to let Dongfang Yelei go so easily, but for the sake of the old man, she knew that it was a friend of the old man's who entrusted his son to her before parting. The old man valued loyalty and righteousness, and would not resort to violence unless absolutely necessary.
When she learned that Dongfang Yelei was dead, she felt nothing; instead, she felt that God was punishing her.
However, she did not blame Dongfang Yelei's mistakes on Tong Shuirong and her daughter, who were implicated.
Therefore, in dealing with the matter of Tong Shuirong and her daughter, she chose to turn a blind eye, but she never expected it to turn into this situation.
Upon hearing his grandparents' words, Dongfang Yi immediately understood the danger he had faced.
He knew about his cousin's medical skills, and even she said so, so the situation at the time was probably far from as easy as it sounds now.
