Chapter 238 Peng Jing Kills



Judging from the ups and downs that Old Lady Shi has experienced in her life, although her grandson and great-grandson are a little confused now, they may not have a bad day ahead of them.

Amnesia is really strange. Maybe there is a reason. If there is a reason, there must be a solution. There is no need to be so anxious. Things will be better if you take it easy.

After the great-grandson fell into the water, his mind was confused. He should see a few famous doctors and take care of his body first. It is hard to say what the outcome of these things will be. Shi Chongwen is so anxious to adopt the legitimate son, but how can Mrs. Shi agree?

The eldest son of the Mei family has been receiving treatment for more than ten years and is still receiving treatment. Can't your family wait for a year or half a year?

She didn't believe that the children would end up like this. Since she had hope and expectation that the two children would recover, why would she adopt another person's child as her own legitimate son?

Although both her husband and son suffered such misfortune, Sun Yanan gritted her teeth and insisted on handling all agricultural affairs and business dealings in the shop, as if life was still the same as before.

Later, when her son regained consciousness, she hid the news from everyone and kept it hidden in her yard like a covered bowl, fearing that the leak of the news would bring new troubles and dangers to her son.

Now, after hearing about Shi Chongwen's proposal to open the ancestral hall, Sun Yanan rushed here with her son in her arms. This time, she not only wanted to protect her child's position as the legitimate grandson, but also to find out the adopted son who was harming others.

The little great-grandson's lively, cute, clever, and intelligent appearance immediately touched everyone present, dispelling the notion of him being a fool. Even Shi Chongwen couldn't help but beam with joy upon seeing him. The old lady and Peng Jing were even more overjoyed.

Old Mrs. Shi breathed a sigh of relief. That’s right, it’s just an illness, it will get better eventually, there’s no point in adopting a legitimate son.

Seeing this, the elders prepared to leave, but Sun Yannan said, "Please stay, elders.

My son Shi Canghai's fall into the water was not an accident but man-made. He was adopted by my father-in-law and Deng Changrong did it on purpose.

He lives in the master's house for all his food, clothing, and expenses. Not only does he not care about the master's family's well-being, he even plots to murder the master's children."

Shi Zhongwen said: "Don't tarnish someone's innocence. Changrong was playing with Canghai when he accidentally twisted his ankle and fell into the lake.

Many maids and servants saw this.”

Sun Yannan took out the prescriptions written by different doctors and said, "He kicked Canghai vigorously in the water. My girl Xiaoyue saw it after she entered the water. There are also records left by different doctors after they examined Canghai's injuries as evidence.

Canghai had a severe head injury. I was extremely worried at the time and hired many doctors to treat my son's injuries. I can testify to this today. How could such an injury occur after falling into the backyard pond?

Deng Changrong clearly knows how to swim, but he pretends not to, simply because he wants to kill my son."

Hearing this, Shi Chongwen looked at Deng Changrong with a serious and complicated expression.

Even though he was still defending his adopted son on the surface, he had already believed what Sun Yanan said in his heart. It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed. Looking at the young face of his grandson Shi Canghai, he was also scared.

When Shi Chongwen first brought Deng Changrong home, he repeatedly saw him in his dreams. If he changed his surname and returned to the Shi family, it would be Deng Changrong who eventually developed amnesia. If he didn't change his name or surname, it would be his son, Shi Yue, who would suffer from this strange condition.

After weighing the pros and cons, Shi Chongwen finally chose to save Deng Changrong, because his son Shi Yue grew up with his mother and wife and had deep feelings for them, but they were much less affectionate towards him.

For the past eighteen years, Jinshu and I have lived in the villa outside the village. In comparison, although Deng Changrong had to hide his identity, he was closer to me than my son Shi Yue.

It was not until the amnesia in the dream really broke out and Shi Yue really became mentally retarded that he felt at ease to let Deng Changrong return to his ancestral home and change his name.

Although he gave up his legitimate son, Shi Chongwen still wanted the lovely Canghai and Canglan. These two babies were so young, and if he had someone take care of them and raise them by himself, they would naturally be closer to him.

The choice he made eighteen years ago made him lose the closeness with Shi Yue and Shi Wei. After he regained the position of head of the family, he wanted to keep Canghai and Canglan.

Perhaps it was precisely this kind of thought that made Deng Changrong want to kill Canghai.

Sun Yannan's accusation against Deng Changrong put Deng Changrong, who "had no blood relationship", at a disadvantage in front of the elders. A person from an outsider family who wanted to be adopted was plotting to murder a real descendant of the Shi family. All the elders looked unhappy.

Deng Changrong also knew that he could not admit to this matter, so he began to protest his innocence, saying that Sun Yannan's maid Xiaoyue was lying.

The injury on Canghai's head may have occurred before or after he fell into the water, and Sun Yannan used this to frame him.

"Uncle, why did you hit Canghai?" A tender child's voice rang out: "You kicked me here, and there, kicked me into the deep water, and kicked my head with your feet. It hurts so much. Canghai is so scared and hurts. Uncle, why did you hit Canghai..."

Little Canghai pointed at his belly, back and little head, and spoke haltingly, but everyone understood.

Deng Changrong's face turned pale.

There seemed to be nothing more to argue about. The elders believed that since this adopted son had already attempted to murder the real descendants of the master's family, his identity as an adopted son was no longer necessary, and they should consider sending him to the authorities.

In a moment of panic, Shi Zhongwen revealed that Deng Changrong was his son, to the astonishment of the entire room. The elders, eager to protect their family's reputation, forgot to mention sending him to the authorities.

Although they are descendants of the Shi family, they use the illegitimate children to harm the legitimate children and the elders to bully the weak. Sun Yannan proposed to the elders of each clan that Deng Changrong and his descendants could never return to their ancestral home, but the Shi family would support them.

Otherwise, if she made his crime public, even though Deng Changrong was young, it would have made it almost impossible for him to pass the imperial examinations, enter school, become an official, or find a good marriage. He was charged with murder, and the victim was a child of only a few years old.
