However, as soon as they entered Kangji Hall, everyone looked at the mother and son with surprise and curiosity.
Jiang Ying didn't understand what was going on. When he arrived at the dining room, the old lady was wearing a light brown brocade jacket. She looked energetic, but her eyes were fixed on her and her smile was full of deep meaning.
"Grandma, why are you looking at me like that?" After sitting down, Jiang Ying couldn't help but asked.
Yin Zhi and Yin Rui beside them brought mouthwash, and they lived a life of ease and comfort.
In the Duke's Mansion, Jiang Ying truly experienced the joy of being a parasite.
"Well, no hurry, no hurry. Just rinse your mouth first, and we, the grandparents and grandchildren, can talk while we eat." The old lady said.
That damn rule of not talking while eating or sleeping is no longer enforced.
As Jiang Ying lowered her head to drink her porridge, the old lady spoke softly, "Yingying, has Grandmother never asked you who your husband's family is?"
"Poof", Jiang Ying subconsciously sprayed out the porridge in his mouth!
Jiang Ying opened his eyes, swallowed hard, and stammered, "I, I, I...Grandmother..."
The old lady smiled, "I always thought it was the guard beside Prince Yan, so I investigated him many times and asked him many questions, but I never thought...
"Yingying, early this morning, the dispute between you and Prince Yan was widely spread among the noble families and common people...
"It's so detailed, even going so far as to tell you how you met Prince Yan, how you became his concubine, and even how much silver he spent on you for so long. Yingying, since you are Prince Yan's concubine, why didn't you tell Grandmother?"
This made her think that the little girl was having a hard time and was struggling.
Of course, being Yan Zhuo's mistress is not necessarily a good thing, but at least there is a little support, and don't the Jiang family and Yan Zhuo have an engagement right now?
The old lady was lost in thought. Jiang Ying stood up suddenly in shock. "Nonsense! How could he spend any money on me? Grandmother, don't listen to those untrue things outside. Yan Zhuo is a vicious and petty person. Every penny I got from him was earned by treating his illness. It's not what outsiders think!"
"On the contrary, he, he, he... he's shameless. He tricked me into giving birth to his child and still refused to treat me as his legal wife. He just left me out there to fend for myself. I... it's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that I find it hard to bring myself to speak..."
It was half true and half false. Jiang Ying had not been flustered at first, but now her voice was tearful and she looked extremely aggrieved.
The old lady's eyes were red with tears. "Good boy, don't be sad. Grandmother doesn't mean to blame you."
How could she blame her? She was so heartbroken.
She was even more uneasy and frightened, because what the old lady had wanted before was to let Jiang Ying and his mother stay in the Duke's Mansion for a while longer so that the two of them could live a comfortable life.
The Duke's Mansion is powerful, so if we put pressure on him, there is no need to worry that Jiang Ying's husband will refuse to agree.
But now... things suddenly became difficult!
Just as the grandmother and grandson were talking, the maid ran in in a panic, "Old Madam, something bad has happened! Miss Yilin accidentally fell into the water in the garden!"
Arriving almost at the same time as the maid was the furious Jiang Yuanlang.
The bruises on his face were still there, and he glared at Jiang Ying with bared teeth. "Well, it turns out you've been Prince Yan's concubine for a long time, and yet you've been playing us around like crazy. You caused Linlin to be heartbroken and commit suicide by jumping into the lake. If anything happens to her, I won't forgive you!"
