Upon hearing this, Wei Wei's face darkened. The Wei family in the west of the city was the same family that had tried to smooth things over at the Jiang residence, only to end up being humiliated by Shao Yu.
Her son survived, but he grew weaker day by day.
In the end, he became a useless person lying in bed.
Jiang Changhe and the people around her were ruthless and vicious, but they still couldn't achieve their goal even after decades.
Is their information wrong, or are these people just tight-lipped?
Wei Wei didn't know.
There are too many unsolved mysteries surrounding her.
She was determined to clear away the fog herself.
She snapped out of her thoughts and asked Shaoyu, "Do you think there's a problem with your daughter-in-law?"
Madam Wei was somewhat taken aback, and after a long while, she looked at her with an incredulous expression, her voice breaking: "You mean... my husband and son were both killed by her?"
Wei Wei didn't tell her directly.
The sudden realization that the last person by her side was a hyena was hard for her to accept. If she collapsed in anger, she could only await death.
She needs to adapt and accept it, and find the answers herself, in order to awaken a true understanding of revenge within her.
Wei Wei lowered her head: "If Madam wants to know, she must seek the truth herself."
"However, your current condition is clearly not suitable."
She looked at the swaying Madam Wei and said, "Madam, you are too weak."
"You are a kind-hearted person. This is your strength, and also your fatal flaw."
"If you can't bring yourself to do it, you won't even be able to save yourself, let alone take revenge."
Wei Wei's heartless words made her tremble all over.
She couldn't believe that her kindness was a knife, killing even her own people.
His expression became even more pained as he recalled all the moments he had shared with Shaoyu.
The sorrow in her eyes was slowly replaced by hatred. She suddenly reached out and slapped herself across the face, shouting madly, "From now on, if I ever soften my heart again, may I be sent to the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated!"
She looked at Wei Wei, her voice broken yet resolute: "Young Madam Meng, please help me!"
Wei Wei felt a slight sense of reassurance at her determination, but her eyes still welled up with tears.
Seeing the red handprint on Madam Wei's face, she made up her mind.
Their situations were critical; if they were discovered carelessly, it could lead to serious consequences.
But now she is willing to believe this woman who would do anything for revenge.
"When Shaoyu was in the manor, did he inquire about the family's financial background?"
"Or perhaps a similar question has been asked."
Madam Wei was not stupid; she had already understood what she was saying.
She believed her family members were murdered because they had hidden something she wanted in their home.
Upon reflection, Shao Yu had indeed asked her more than once if her family possessed any family heirlooms.
Although she vaguely sensed something was wrong, she didn't think about it any deeper.
By then, Shaoyu had already started to act arrogantly in the mansion. Although she herself did not confront her directly, she was completely disappointed in her.
They also resented her inexplicable questions and never gave her a formal response.
Thinking back now, I realize I was covered in sweat.
That's too vicious! That woman is too vicious!
She spared no effort, even marrying into her own household, all for the sake of that so-called "family heirloom"!
Didn't she know that the person she harmed was her husband?
Seeing her expression of unspeakable pain, Wei Wei already knew the answer.
She gripped his trembling hand tightly, her voice low but steady: "Madam Wei, you must hold on. Only by protecting your health can you take revenge on your enemies."
"What should we do next if you get sick?"
"I risked everything to come to you, not so that you would become seriously ill!"
"What I want is for you to stand up and defeat her!"
Madam Wei was panting heavily, but her body gradually calmed down.
She opened her mouth and said, "Young Madam Meng... I will never fall... I will definitely avenge my husband and son!"
Wei Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
She would not underestimate anyone driven by a thirst for revenge.
Although it was a bit late, it wasn't completely too late.
She looked at the woman with red eyes and said firmly, "Since Shaoyu wants your family heirloom, why not give her some hope instead of watching her become desperate?"
"When the time is right, I'll kill her as a sacrifice!"
The carriage moved slowly forward, taking twice as long as usual to enter the city.
As they parted, Madam Wei finally voiced the question that had been lingering in her mind: "Why did you help me like this?"
Wei Wei smiled as she sat in the carriage: "Madam, you are not the only pawn. All five families we visited today are under someone else's control."
Madam Wei was shocked; the news had a tremendous impact on her.
Seeing her absent-minded appearance, Wei Wei whispered to comfort her, "So, it's not just you fighting back, we are too."
The carriage started moving again, and Madam Wei could still hear Wei Wei's last words echoing in her ears.
"If we succeed, we will get together openly and honestly."
"If we fail, please don't expose me—Madam, I have sworn that I will personally send all those who have used and harmed us to their deaths."
"If I do not fulfill this wish, I will die with regrets."
"I think so too."
She is, how could she not be?
The resolute look in Madam Wei's eyes grew stronger.
If you can't let hope grow in your heart, then let it be filled with hatred.
They supported her step by step, helping her through the most difficult days.
——
Upon returning to the Meng residence, Qiu Ye, who had been waiting at the door on Xiao Qiao'er's orders, hurriedly said, "Young Madam, the First Madam has woken up and is now demanding to see the Eldest Young Master!"
"Sister Qiao'er and Granny Chun are trying to stop them, but they can't hold them off for long! They have too many people with them!"
Wei Wei sneered. This Madam Meng started causing trouble as soon as she woke up. It seems she hasn't learned her lesson yet.
She didn't stop, hurrying towards Tingfeng Pavilion.
Before even entering the door, they heard Madam Meng's shrill voice.
"You've really gone too far! If you don't move aside, you'll regret it!"
Wei Wei strode through the door.
Just then, they saw the servants of Tingfeng Pavilion and the people brought by Madam Meng forming a hostile stance.
All the hard work these past few days has paid off.
Now, everyone in Tingfengxuan is subconsciously on Wei Wei's side.
Granny Chun dared not offend him openly, so she advised him with a helpless expression: "Madam, the young master's condition has only just started to improve. If you continue to make a scene, not only will your own body suffer, but the young master will also be uneasy!"
Madam Meng has been bedridden for several days and is now extremely frail.
Although she has lost some weight, she looks even more beautiful.
Unfortunately, she was surrounded by old women and maids, and no one came to appreciate her charming appearance.
