Her reaction most likely indicates that she knows her son is in grave danger.
The escaped guard was quite dutiful; before leaving, he actually came back to tell her.
That's fine, I'm too lazy to play games with her anymore.
Although she pretends to be crazy and doesn't feel tired, even watching her act silly gets annoying.
Wei Wei smiled and walked into the house without hesitation.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
She stood at the doorway, watching the woman in white pajamas frantically sweeping through all the items around her.
Although she only has one hand, it doesn't diminish her fighting ability in the slightest.
Upon hearing Weiwei's voice, she abruptly raised her head, her eyes bloodshot, and her voice became extremely unpleasant, like that of an eighty-year-old woman.
"Wei! Where is my son? Where is my son?!"
She screamed frantically, almost to the point of weeping blood.
Wei Wei tilted her head innocently: "Wasn't Zhixuan hidden away by Father? Why is Mother asking me for him?"
Madam Meng roared, "Shut up!"
"Where did you go for the past day and night? Did you find Zhixuan and then kill him?"
"You vicious woman, how cruel you are!"
Wei Wei disagreed: "My mother is at home and doesn't know what's going on outside, nor does she know how difficult things are for the Meng family right now."
"Even when your daughter-in-law goes out, it's so that you can have food to eat and enjoy a life where you can be waited on hand and foot."
"Now, that's become your excuse for sarcasm."
"Your words are truly hurtful."
Granny Zhang nodded vigorously from the side: "Madam, what the young mistress said is right. She is having a very difficult time in the mansion."
"Shut up!"
Madam Meng glared at her fiercely: "You traitorous wretch, do you think I don't know how much jewelry you've stolen from my dressing case these past few days?"
"Just you wait, I'll take your worthless life!"
Granny Zhang turned pale with fright. She had indeed done these things, thinking she had gotten away with it, but now she had been exposed in public.
This was like a heavy punch thrown into the open, leaving everyone stunned.
If this charge is proven true, then she might as well not live anymore.
The only hope now lies with the young mistress who now controls the entire Meng family.
As long as she doesn't believe it, there's still a glimmer of hope for me.
Upon realizing this, he immediately knelt on the ground: "Young Madam, I'm innocent!"
“These past few days I have been taking care of the First Madam with all my heart and soul, not daring to slack off in the slightest. Even when I need to go to the outhouse, I run back and forth... This old servant has never had any selfish thoughts!”
She looked up eagerly and said, "As you can see, this old servant is just a very timid woman. How could I dare to have such wicked thoughts?"
"I implore the young mistress to uphold justice for this old servant!"
Wei Wei thought what she said made a lot of sense, so she smiled and waved her hand: "What's there to be afraid of? Do you think I don't know that my mother, the dignified Madam of the Meng family, is a madwoman?"
"Listen to what a madman says and then forget about it."
Granny Zhang's face immediately lit up with joy.
Looking at Wei Wei's expression, it was as if he had seen his second parents: "Young Madam is right, Madam is crazy, this old servant shouldn't have taken her words seriously!"
Seeing the two of them singing in unison, Madam Meng was even more furious, gritting her teeth: "You two vile women! I'm not dead yet!"
"This Meng family is not for you to make decisions about!"
"Just you wait, I'll have your legs broken and your mouths ripped off!"
After saying that, she picked up an embroidered stool from the corner and threw it hard in their direction.
Wei Wei had been watching her closely, and when she saw her acting erratically, she turned away to avoid her.
Granny Zhang wasn't so lucky; she was looking at Wei Wei with a fawning expression.
Naturally, there was no time to escape.
With a "bang," it hit her foot.
The old woman, Zhang, clutched her foot and howled in pain.
"Madam is enraged and wants to murder this old servant! Young mistress, save me!"
Wei Wei felt a headache coming on and turned to Zhang Pozi, who was singing and reciting with great skill: "Not only has the First Madam gone mad, but now she is also trying to hurt people on purpose."
"You take everyone down first, I'll try to persuade her."
At this moment, Granny Zhang wished she could go as far away as possible.
Her theft of the jewelry had been exposed, but Wei Wei had managed to cover it up.
Now, Wei Wei's words are like imperial edicts to everyone.
He immediately summoned the unsettled servants and ordered them all to leave.
The place was deserted in no time.
Only two opposing sides remain.
Madam Meng was still panting heavily, and the bloodshot in her eyes had not faded; in fact, it had become much more pronounced.
"Is Mother tired? Would you like to sit down and rest for a while?"
She sat down leisurely on the chair that Xiao Yue'er had brought, smiling as she looked at Madam Meng in the bedroom.
The woman inside was even more furious. She glared at Wei Wei, wishing she could pounce on her and tear her apart immediately.
"What exactly happened on the mountain? Where is my son?"
Seeing that Wei Wei was still pretending to be stupid, Madam Meng shouted in a shrill voice, "I know everything! You still want to lie to me?"
Wei Wei chuckled: "I'm just imitating my mother, aren't I?"
One sentence caused Madam Meng's face to display a myriad of colors.
"You knew everything? You knew I was pretending to be crazy on purpose?"
She asked incredulously, "How did you find out? Why did you pretend you didn't know anything!"
