Chapter 41 You are so cruel, she is your own sister, your own daughter!
The carriage soon arrived at the gate of Xu's house.
There were many people watching the excitement on the road.
Xu Mianmian was waiting at the door. When she saw Song Wanyun and Jiang Yunzheng, she quickly called out, "Aunt, Sister Jiang."
Song Wanyun felt a little sad and took off the jade bracelet she had worn for many years from her wrist as a gift to Xu Mianmian.
Xu Mianmian couldn't refuse, so Madam Xu asked her to accept it. Xu Mianmian then stuck out her tongue and took Jiang Yunzheng's wrist: "We will live close to each other in the future, so we can see each other every day."
Mrs. Xu nodded her daughter's head and said, "That's enough. You're already a married woman. When can you be more stable?"
Jiang Yunzheng smiled faintly: "Mianmian, it's good like this."
Xu Qingsong waved his hand and said, "Go into the mansion first."
Pingkangfang is close to the imperial city and has a geographical location where every inch of land is valuable. Although the Xu Mansion is not as spacious as the Duke's Mansion and the Princess' Mansion, the front and back yards are well-arranged and have a unique style.
Mrs. Xu had arranged a family dinner in advance. As the moon was full tonight, everyone sat in the courtyard to eat and drink.
Xu Qingsong had heard a lot of gossip about the Shi Mansion from his wife before. Who would have thought that the tragic and miserable original wife was his own sister? Before they even started drinking, Lord Xu's eyes turned red and he kept telling Song Wanyun that he had suffered.
Mrs. Xu also wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
After an afternoon, Song Wanyun felt much calmer and patted her brother's shoulder.
"What matters is later."
At the same time, at Xu Mansion.
After Xu Jiashu finished his shift today, he went to Youranju, which was the place where Xu Jiashu and King Yu usually talked.
As soon as Xu Jiashu entered, a teacup came straight towards his face.
Xu Jiashu tilted his head, his expression slightly paused, "Your Highness."
This was the first time the two had met since the arrest of the Qinglian Cult. A few days ago, King Yu was extremely busy dealing with the cleanup of the Qinglian Cult, and today was the first time King Yu had some free time.
"Xu Jiashu, when did I become a coward who relies on a woman to survive!?"
Xu Jiashu pursed his lips and was speechless for a moment.
King Yu was referring to the night when Xu Jiashu pushed Jiang Yunzheng to shield him from the arrow.
"Your Highness, I was inconsiderate."
King Yu sneered: "You are not thoughtful enough."
Everything that happened that night was reported to my father word for word. Xu Jiashu's actions indirectly caused Qi Yunshen to fall off the cliff. In the morning, Prince Yu went to see my father before leaving the palace. My father almost pointed at him and scolded him for being useless.
The Qi family is deeply trusted by the emperor. I am afraid that in the eyes of the emperor, Qi Yunshen is more important than him and King Zhou.
There was mockery in Prince Yu's eyes. If he had died that night, his father probably wouldn't have felt much.
The only people present that night, apart from Jiang Yunzheng and Prince Yu's own men, were the three female members of the Xu family.
Prince Yu glanced at Xu Jiashu and said, "Keep your mouth shut about what happened that night."
Xu Jiashu: "Yes."
Half an hour later, Xu Jiashu returned to the Xu Mansion, and the housekeeper invited Xu Jiashu to have dinner in Rong'en Hall.
Xu Jiashu has been so busy these days that he has been nowhere to be seen. Yu misses her second son a little.
Rong Yue, Xiao Yu and Chen Yingyu were also there.
Chen Yingyu stood up and called out "Second cousin".
Xu Jiashu nodded lightly, his gaze lingering on Chen Yingyu's face for two seconds.
Chen Yingyu clenched her palms.
Xu Jiashu conveyed Prince Yu's request in a tactful way, and Yu Shi naturally understood: "Don't worry, your aunt and I understand this."
Xiao Yu sighed and said, thinking about it now, she was still shocked, "I just didn't expect that the woman that night was actually the young lady of the Shi family."
Rong Yue looked at Xiao Yu and Chen Yingyu silently without saying a word.
Xiao Yu talked about what happened in Shi Mansion today.
Yu frowned, "He favors his concubine and kills his wife, treats his wife harshly, and condones his concubine's poisoning. He is truly a worthless person."
Rong Yue: "Fortunately, the masters in our mansion are all responsible. They don't mess around outside, and the mansion is clean."
Xu Jiashu paused.
Xiao Yu looked at Yu and said nothing.
Yu nodded and smiled, "Su Yuan said in his letter that he would be back in two days. I haven't seen him for half a year, and I don't know if he has changed."
Rong Yue was stunned, "Mother, when did my husband send the letter?"
Yu paused and said, "This afternoon, Su Yuan..."
A maid's voice came from behind Yu, "Madam, the master's letter just arrived this afternoon. You were busy with things at the shop outside and didn't have time to read it."
Rong Yue then forced a smile, "You little girl, why didn't you tell me?"
The maid begged for mercy again and again.
After dinner, Xu Jiashu returned to his yard. When he passed the garden, he heard sounds of beating and scolding coming from the rockery.
"You old hag, if the lady hadn't kept you in the house out of our past friendship, you wouldn't even be able to find your way out to beg for food, as blind as you are."
When Xu Jiashu walked over, the maids in the rockery were startled and hurriedly saluted.
Xu Jiashu's eyes fell on the old, hunched figure. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Second Master, Madam sent this old woman to look after the Buddhist temple. Not only did she not appreciate Madam's kindness, she even went to the kitchen to steal things!"
Xu Jiashu squatted down and pulled out the cloth bag that had been pressed under Qin Ma. There were some mung beans in it. Xu Jiashu threw the cloth bag directly into the river.
"what you do?"
Xu Jiashu: "Nurse, do you know you are wrong?"
Nanny Qin raised her scarred face. She could vaguely make out the outline of a person and identified the voice as Xu Jiashu.
She slapped Xu Jiashu's hand away. "Jingyang is right, and neither am I. Jiashu, your sister has always had a clear conscience, but she ended up like that. You are so cruel. She is your own sister, your own daughter!"
Xu Jiashu sneered and stood up.
"Nurse, it's been four years. What kind of drug has she given you?"
"The evidence is irrefutable. How long are you going to keep making excuses for her? If it weren't for her, how could Tong Li be kidnapped and disappeared? It's all because of Xu Jingyang, it's all because of her!"
"So what if she died? I don't want her to be at peace even after she died!"
Xu Jiashu left angrily, and the sounds of punching and kicking continued behind him.
Xu Jiashu's eyes were slightly hot. The person who was beaten was not only Xu Jingyang's wet nurse when he was young, but also the nanny who took care of him and his elder brother.
Xu Jiashu waved his hand, and the kicking and beating behind him stopped.
Xu Jiashu's yard is Yuzhuxuan, and not far next to him is where Xu Jingyang used to live.
Xu Jiashu returned to his yard with a sarcastic look on his face.
After a while, the servant entered the study.
"Any news?"
"Second Young Master, there's still no trace. I've had people search all around Jiangnan, but they still haven't found it."
Two months ago, a woman who looked similar to Tong Li was suspected to have appeared in Jiangnan. After searching for a long time, there was still no trace of her.
Xu Jiashu pushed everything on the table over, his face furious, "Keep looking!"
Nanny Qin's eyes were not completely blind, and she could roughly see the outlines of the surrounding buildings. She limped towards the Buddhist temple with her crutches.
Nanny Qin is an old lady in the Xu family. When she was young, she was the wet nurse of Xu Suyuan and Xu Jiashu. Later, she became Yu's personal maid and married the chief guard of the family.
The year Xu Jingyang was born, Nanny Qin's husband died while protecting her. Nanny Qin was pregnant at the time and she had a miscarriage due to excitement.
When Xu Jingyang was born, Nanny Qin transferred her deceased feelings for her deceased child to Xu Jingyang.
The night fell on Nanny Qin's hunched back.
Xu Jingyang was the most delicate and lovely little girl she had ever seen. The child became the darling of the whole mansion as soon as she was born. The courtyard she lived in was the Linlang Pavilion with the best scenery in the mansion. The food, clothing and other necessities were the best of the best. If the little girl wanted stars, the elders of the Xu family would pick the moon as well. The two brothers came to see their sister as soon as they got home from school every day, saying that they would be her protectors in the future.
Later, Xu Jingyang was lost unexpectedly, and Yu was so sad that she almost died. The two young masters also became thinner and sadder day by day. It was not until the master brought back a daughter who was about the same age as Xu Jingyang that the sadness that shrouded the mansion faded.
Nanny Qin took care of Xu Jingyang personally until he was five years old. This child is kind and innocent, how could he do anything to harm others?
Jingyang has loved eating mung bean cakes since she was a child, and she has to make them before her death anniversary.
Nanny Qin thought that she would have to go to the kitchen again tomorrow.
