After Jiang Huaixu and his party arrived home, a servant from Lingdu Temple came to Fang Zhan and Wan and said, "Master, Madam, the eldest young master's horse has been found. Someone shot an arrow in its right leg."
"What?!" Aunt Xia's face was furious as she stepped forward and asked, "Did someone deliberately shoot the horse to kill my Bin'er?"
The servant bent down again and said, "I don't know."
Aunt Xia's face turned cold, and the moment she turned around, her eyes reddened slightly. She staggered to Fang Zhan and Wan Shi, pretending to kneel down, "Master, Madam, please help me and my Bin'er! Bin'er is usually respectful to his teachers and friendly to his younger siblings. I have never heard of him having any problems with any of his classmates. How could someone deliberately do something bad to make him fall from his horse? There must be something hidden!"
Tears streamed down her face as she called out "Master, Madam," but her eyes never left Fang Zhan.
Fang Zhan was stared at by her pitiful eyes, and his heart ached. He hurried forward to help her, "Zhi Niang, please get up first. If you have anything to say, just talk it out. Why are you kneeling here and there?"
Wan's expression was somewhat cold. "Madam Xia, do you think there is some hidden secret behind this?"
Aunt Xia had just stood up from the ground, her hand wiping her tears with a handkerchief paused, and she whispered, "Madam, if I knew what was going on, why would I beg Master and Madam for help? It's just..."
She looked at Madam Fang, lowered her eyes, and said humbly, "Madam, do you know that Bin'er was able to come to Jiuxi Mountain because of the young master of the Yang family? Among them..."
The sentence was cut short at a point that inevitably gave rise to speculation, and Aunt Xia quickly denied it, "Yes, I was mistaken. Young Master Yang is the son of the county magistrate, and he has always been good friends with Bin'er. I, I was really confused. I actually... Please forgive me, Madam."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to kneel down again.
Fang Zhan didn't stop him, but lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.
Wan's eyes were filled with disappointment as she looked at Aunt Xia.
Who was Yang Zheng? He was the one who kept calling her aunt. Mentioning Yang Zheng at this time was just an attempt to roast her on the fire.
Wan believed that she had done many good deeds and did not seek great rewards, but only a peaceful life. However, she actually saved a poisonous snake that wanted to bite her back.
Fortunately, fortunately, it’s not too late to see this person clearly now.
Her eyes changed from disappointment to determination, and she said in a cold voice: "Master and I know very well what kind of character the Yang couple is. You have no evidence to accuse the Yang family. If the Yang family finds out, with their methods, do you think our Fang family's business can continue peacefully?!
Don't say that the Yang family and I are only distant relatives. Even if Madam Yang and I were sisters from the same blood, I would never protect you based on what you said! "
A trace of anger flashed across Aunt Xia's face as she knelt on the ground. She was too impatient and thought she had caught something, but she didn't expect it to be such a hot handle.
But it’s okay, it’s good to be able to put a thorn in the master’s heart.
She kowtowed and said, "Madam, please forgive me. I was so angry that I said something without thinking. It's my fault. I will punish you as you wish."
"Alright, let's end this matter here." Fang Zhan ordered his servants with a stern face, "Find out who shot the arrow, whether it was intentional or not. Report back after you find out."
The servant retreated immediately.
Fang Zhan glanced at Mrs. Wan and said to Aunt Xia, "Please leave for now. I have something to discuss with my wife."
Aunt Xia didn't dare to stay any longer, and she murmured "yes" and left the room.
Wan sat as still as a mountain, drinking tea, but Fang Zhan paced back and forth, unable to hide his anxiety.
The two were silent for a while, and then Fang Zhan asked, "Does this really have nothing to do with you?"
Wan's hand holding the tea paused, and the next second the teacup flew out and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"Master, do you not trust me, or do you not trust the Yang couple?" she asked coldly.
Fang Zhan was stunned for a moment as he looked at the broken teacup at his feet. He wanted to get angry, but when he saw Wan's frosty eyes, he suppressed his anger.
"You've been childless for many years, so it's natural for you to be a little jealous, but you really shouldn't be so vicious..."
"I've been childless for years? Am I jealous?" Wan Shi laughed out loud in anger. She stood up and met Fang Zhan's gaze. "Young Doctor Jiang took my pulse. Master, do you know what she said?"
"What are you talking about? This has something to do with what we are talking about..."
Wan interrupted him and said word by word, "She said that I am in good health and it won't be difficult for me to conceive."
Fang Zhan stood still, staring at Wan, "What do you mean by that?"
"I was originally considering the master's face and wanted to find a suitable time to tell you. Now that the dirty water has been thrown on me, there is no need to hide it anymore." Wan lowered her eyes, her voice calm.
"I'm fine, but we haven't been able to conceive. It's the master who's at fault."
Fang Zhan's still vaguely handsome face twisted, his finger trembling as he pointed at Wan, "What nonsense are you talking about? Zhi Niang and I gave birth to three..."
"That's what I'm going to say next." Wan curled her lips. "Master, you don't believe it, right? After the young doctor told me, I was also very hesitant. I consulted many doctors, and they all said the same thing."
"Today she told me that blood type can tell whether a child is biologically born to his or her parents." She repeated everything Jiang Huaixu had said to Fang Zhan, and finally said, "Master and Concubine Xia can't give birth to a child with type B blood. That's why the doctor didn't ask you two to draw blood today. Bin'er is not your son."
Fang Zhan's mind was in a mess, and he only heard the last sentence clearly. He shouted with bloodshot eyes, "Impossible, impossible! You lied to me!"
Wan Shi seemed to be still not satisfied and continued, "Master, Aunt Xia said that she and her brother came from Qingren Mansion. During this period of hesitation, I sent someone to Qingren Mansion to conduct a thorough investigation. Guess what I found out?"
