Chapter 157 Let Shushu Become the Young Marquis
"This is a long story. It all started with Sister Yu's dream warning..."
Jiang Yunwan told Jiang Youya in detail about Song Yu's precognitive dream.
Jiang Youya found it unbelievable and looked at Jiang Yunshu, "No wonder you came to me last time to ask me to change Cheng Xiao's title of Marquis. You don't believe that the Marquis' wife in Sister Yu's dream is you?"
Jiang Yunshu twisted the handkerchief in her hand. "At first, I thought Sister Yu'er's dream was an illusion and couldn't be true. Cheng Xiao has treated me so well over the past thirteen years, and my father and eldest brother are also very optimistic about him."
Jiang Youya was extremely depressed.
He is blind and has made a mistake!
"Ever since I discovered Meng Guangde's character was questionable, I've been a little worried, but I still don't want to believe that Cheng Xiao would have a mistress. My sister-in-law, my elder sister, and the three sisters have been searching for evidence of Cheng Xiao having a mistress these days. They even searched the entire capital for pregnant women who were three or four months pregnant. I looked through the lists and portraits, but I didn't recognize any of them. Meng'er also said she had no impression of them, so I was still holding on to a lucky hope. But Shu Ge'er was accidentally rescued from the Yu Mansion by Wen Nuo and his father and sent to the Jiang Mansion. I had to believe it even though I didn't want to. After all, it's impossible for people who are not related by blood to look so similar..."
Jiang Youya took a deep breath and asked, "Are you sure that the concubine's residence is the Yu Mansion?"
Jiang Yunwan said, "Although we haven't found any direct connection between the Cheng family and the Yu Mansion, the three sisters discovered an underground passage in the study of Uncle Cheng of the Cheng family. Unfortunately, the mechanism was blocked."
"The day after their eldest nephew disappeared, the Yu family used Xiao Nuo's portrait to search for him. The mistress must have communicated with the Cheng family through an underground passage. We have confirmed that there are spies from the Cheng family outside watching us. The underground passage was blocked when the three sisters went to investigate. I think Madam Cheng must have noticed something and had the passage blocked. The Yu family is definitely the mistress's residence."
Jiang Youya was a little confused: "How can you be sure that the underground passage was blocked before Sister Yu and the others went to check it?"
"Not long ago, the Cheng family's accountant came to Shushu to ask for money to advance the monthly wages for the servants in the mansion. There was a payment of 1,000 taels every month to Cheng Xiao at the border to buy medicinal herbs and food to donate to the poor people at the border, in order to accumulate blessings for Shushu's unborn child. My sister-in-law and I didn't believe it. We thought the Cheng family was lying about sending the banknotes to the concubine. That day, my sister-in-law arranged for people to monitor the Cheng residence, and they discovered that the money had never been sent out of the Cheng residence..."
Jiang Yunshu tightly grasped the handkerchief in his hand.
It turns out that Cheng Xiao has been using the money she earned to support her mistress! ! ! !
She manages all the shops under the Cheng family's name.
"If Madam Cheng wanted to embezzle the money, she wouldn't have needed such an excuse. She could have sent it to her mistress through the underground passage. I'm pretty sure the underground passage wasn't blocked before. The Cheng family's spies came to spy on our Jiang family, but our people were always watching the Cheng family and didn't notice them. We can only say that the Cheng family's spies took a detour through the underground passage to spy on us."
Jiang Youya's face was solemn. He really underestimated his mother-in-law. She was so scheming.
If Wanwan didn't come back and Sister Yu didn't have the predictive dream, Shushu would definitely be angered to death by Cheng Xiao's mistress in the future, and his little grandson would be replaced or killed after being born in a few months!
hateful!
"Shushu, what do you want to do next? Dad supports you, so forget about his dream of becoming Marquis Cheng Xiao."
"Cheng Xiao's title of nobility finally gave him what he wished for."
Jiang Youya and Jiang Yunwan's expressions changed at the same time.
"Shushu! You're still stubborn and stubborn." Jiang Yunwan was furious. "The Cheng family has been plotting against us since we were on our way back to Beijing. Cheng Xiao saved our mother when she passed by and made us feel grateful to the Cheng family. It was all their plan! How can we let the Cheng family's evil ambitions continue to succeed? The Cheng family not only wants to increase their titles, but also wants their descendants to inherit the title for generations. The Cheng family will not stop until they have squeezed the value of our Jiang family dry!"
"Sister, don't be angry. I will definitely not let the Cheng family have an easy time."
"Then we'll divorce Cheng Xiao and bring the Cheng family back to its original state. No, we'll make the Cheng family even worse than it was fifteen years ago!"
Jiang Yunwan hated herself for falling off the cliff and losing her memory, otherwise she would never have let Shushu marry Cheng Xiao.
"Shushu, just follow your sister's wishes and divorce Cheng Xiao first. Don't worry about the rumors. Dad and mom will raise you three for the rest of your lives. All three children will change their surnames to Jiang. I believe that Dad will definitely have a bright future for them in the future."
Jiang Yunshu was silent for a moment. "It's easy to divorce and return home. I don't care about the rumors outside, but Guanchen and Yun'er haven't married yet. It won't be easy for my three children to get married in the future. Divorcing and returning home will seriously affect the reputation of our Jiang family."
"Shushu, don't think about it. Don't continue to be trapped in the quagmire of the Cheng family for these illusory reputations. Our Jiang family's daughter can live well even if she is divorced. She can still marry a good family as usual."
"Yes, Shushu." Jiang Yunwan advised earnestly: "Don't think about those things, divorce Cheng Xiao."
"No divorce!" Jiang Yunshu's eyes flashed fiercely, "Cheng Xiao doesn't need to come back. I want to inherit the entire Cheng family and become the master of the Cheng family! Let Shu Ge'er be the young marquis!"
This was what she owed Shushu, and she had to prepare it for him.
Jiang Yunwan opened her mouth in shock. Does Shushu want Cheng Xiao to die at the border?
Cheng Xiao really deserves to die!
If this dream were to happen naturally, not only would my sister, mother, and four other children die, but my parents would definitely not be able to bear the blow and would follow Shushu to his death.
What happened in Yujie'er's dream happened a few years later.
Since the concubine dares to come to the house arrogantly, it seems that the Cheng family is no longer afraid of the Jiang family.
It must be the new emperor who will take the throne, and Cheng Xiao has embraced the new emperor's golden thigh!
My eldest brother and his wife's family are also in danger.
Jiang Youya understood instantly, "Okay, your father supports you."
Jiang Yunwan said, "Sister also supports you. What about the concubine, how is Madam Cheng going to deal with it?"
"Of course I'll treat Shushu the same way they treat her!"
"Where is the second branch of the Cheng family?"
"How could the Cheng family's second branch not know about this? They must be involved in plotting against our Jiang family!"
Jiang Yunshu recalled that over the years, the two maids from the second house had always been at odds with Meng'er and had been causing trouble everywhere.
In the past, she always tolerated them for Cheng Xiao's sake, turning big things into small things and small things into nothing.
He plotted against her and bullied her daughter.
We can’t pamper the second wife anymore!
Nanny Niu came back from outside and chatted with the doorman. She pretended to glance around the Cheng family's house casually and entered the Cheng mansion from the corner gate.
"Madam, the old slave is back."
"Is there anyone suspicious watching you?"
Ever since the three sisters left, even though the underground passage was open, she still felt uneasy and changed the way of sending messages.
"Don't worry, old lady," said Madam Niu. "I went to our teahouse to check the accounts. The servants went there disguised themselves as tea customers. They said that Feng Yingying took Song Yu, her son and daughter, and Prince Mu to Fengquan Villa today. Not long after they left, a masked child led a handsome man to the Jiang Mansion."
"A child wearing a mask?" Old Madam Cheng was startled. "But is it a child from the Wen family?"
Nanny Niu shook her head. "It's unclear at the moment. The two entered the Cheng Mansion and haven't left. But one of our people overheard the child saying that her sister had asked a miracle doctor to come and nurse our lady back to health."
