Yun Xiucheng became angrier the more he looked at it.
If these two children are really Jiang Huaishu’s illegitimate children.
Then he deliberately deceived Rouer and made her help raise his mistress's child.
asshole!
Yun Xiucheng clenched his fist and slammed it on the table.
Just as he was about to stand up, he heard Yun Wanrou suddenly say, "My Lord, why didn't you discuss this with me in advance?"
Yun Wanrou's voice was gentle and soft. She didn't sound angry, but just a little confused.
When Yangyang heard her words, he grinned excitedly and cheered for her in his heart.
[Mother, you did a great job in exorcising this big pig's hoof, Jiang Huaishu! ]
There was silence in the front yard for a moment.
Soon, someone was surprised and said, "No way, adopting a legitimate son or daughter is such an important matter, but Marquis Anyuan didn't even discuss it with his wife in advance! What's the difference between the Marquis's behavior and a one-man show?"
"Madam doesn't know about this, and I think the Grand Tutor is even less aware of it. Marquis Anyuan chose to announce this matter in public. Could it be that he is worried that the Grand Tutor and Madam Jiang will not agree? He wants to use us to force them to agree?"
"If this is true, Marquis Anyuan is going too far!"
Most of the guests present came to see the Grand Tutor.
Now that Jiang Huaishu made such an important decision without the knowledge of the Grand Tutor's daughter, they naturally stood on the side of the Grand Tutor.
Different from everyone else's indignation, Meng Yanchen remained calm from beginning to end.
He held the wine glass and took a sip from time to time.
It seemed as if he didn't take this farce to heart.
Amid the accusations from the crowd, Jiang Huaishu's face turned blue, then white, and then white, then red.
Yun Wanrou has been married to him for almost a year. She is usually gentle and kind, and obeys him in everything.
So after discussing with his mother, he decided to take advantage of Yangyang's 100-day banquet to force her to be adopted.
However, he never expected that Yun Wanrou, who had always been honest and dutiful, would question him in public and embarrass him.
"Arou..."
"Jiang Huaishu, what's going on? You really didn't discuss such an important matter as adoption with Rou'er?"
Jiang Huaishu frowned, looking a little unhappy.
He turned to look at Yun Wanrou, but was interrupted by Yun Xiucheng as soon as he opened his mouth to speak.
He turned around following the sound and saw Yun Xiucheng sitting motionless in the same place with his right hand clenched into a fist.
He stared at him coldly, intimidating without even getting angry.
"Father, I was with..."
"My Lord was too busy before, maybe he forgot to discuss it with me."
Yun Wanrou interrupted Jiang Huaishu.
It seemed like she was helping him explain, but in fact she didn't want to give him a chance to defend himself.
She turned to look at him and gently tugged at his sleeve.
"My Lord, the matter of adoption is of great importance. Let's discuss it carefully later!"
"No, I don't agree!"
As soon as Yun Wanrou's voice fell, Qian suddenly stepped forward quickly.
She looked at Yun Wanrou, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
"Wanrou, Shu'er is not unwilling to discuss this with you, he is just afraid that you will be sad. He wants to adopt these two children under your name. Do you think he really just feels sorry for these two children?"
[Keep on making up, I want to see what else you can come up with! ]
He glanced at Qian with disdain in his eyes.
Yun Li slowly stood up and came in front of Qian.
"From what the old lady said, Lord Jiang wants to adopt a child from a branch family. Is there some other hidden reason?"
"Hey, I didn't want to say this at first. But now it has come to this. If I don't tell the truth, Shuer will be criticized."
Qian sighed and held Yun Wanrou's hand.
"Wanrou, I know Shu'er didn't discuss this with you in advance. It's his fault. But he did this for your own good. He was afraid that you would be sad."
Yun Wanrou was puzzled: "What do you mean by that, mother?"
"Wanrou, you don't know. When you gave birth to Yangyang, you hurt your body. The doctor said that you... said that you can no longer have children.
The Marquis's Mansion is a noble family, how could there be no legitimate son? Shu'er had no other choice but to adopt the child of the side branch under your name.
He did this for the Marquisate and for you. He was afraid that you would not be able to give birth to a legitimate son and be laughed at by others. "
The more Qian spoke, the sadder she became, and she even forced out a tear.
Even Yangyang couldn't help but admire her acting skills after watching it.
[Well said, very cleverly. I have finally found the source of this ability to lie with open eyes. It turns out that everyone in your mansion is a good candidate for being an actor, but it's a pity that they were born in the wrong era!]
[What do you mean giving birth hurts the body? It's obviously you who bribed the doctor and prescribed contraceptive soup for my mother. You wanted to make her unable to give birth, and in the end you're still pretending to be a good person.]
[Luckily, my mother was afraid of suffering and didn't drink the medicine you sent me. Otherwise, you and your son would have succeeded!]
Meng Yanchen's hand holding the wine glass suddenly tightened.
His eyes were lowered, his expression was indifferent, and he looked very calm.
Only the hint of coldness in his eyes revealed his mood at the moment.
When the Yun family heard Yangyang's voice, their hearts skipped a beat.
Jiang Huaishu not only forced Rouer to adopt his illegitimate child, he also secretly prescribed her contraceptive soup!
He can do such a thing, and yet he has the nerve to stand here and pretend to be a good man by singing the same tune with his mother. Do they have any shame left?
Yun Xiucheng has always been a good-tempered person and doesn't get angry easily.
But when he heard that the people in the Marquis' Mansion not only failed to harm her daughter, but also forced her to raise a concubine's child, he was extremely angry.
But his upbringing did not allow him to lose his temper in public.
He looked at Qian, suppressed his anger, and tried to make himself look calmer.
"From what my mother-in-law said, it seems to be for the good of my Rouer?"
"Wanrou is the mistress of my mansion, and it is only right for Shu'er and I to think about her. Originally, I shouldn't have said these words. But I can't bear to see Shu'er being misunderstood by others."
Qian sighed lightly and shook her head.
She suddenly changed from a wicked mother-in-law who took advantage of her power to a loving mother who cared about her daughter-in-law.
Jiang Huaishu saw that she had put the words to his lips, so he quickly said, "Father, I was indeed reckless in what happened today.
Although I made this decision for Arou's sake, I should have discussed it with her beforehand.
This is not what I want to see, I hope my father will forgive me!"
"I thought the Marquis was making the decision without considering Madam Jiang's feelings. I didn't expect that the Marquis had his own reasons for doing so."
"Mrs. Jiang is so lucky, not only does she have a father like the Grand Tutor, but she also has a husband who loves her dearly.
But God is fair. God gave her a lot, but took away her right to give birth to a legitimate son. Alas! "
In the front yard, the guests' conversation suddenly changed, and almost all of them were speaking in favor of Jiang Huaishu and his mother.
Seeing that they could not distinguish right from wrong, Yun Xiucheng gritted his teeth and sneered:
"My mother-in-law said that Rou'er was injured when giving birth to Yangyang, why didn't you ask a doctor to help her recover?
If my mother-in-law is reluctant to spend money, I will pay for it!"
