Chapter 414 A Loving Family of Three
"Don't believe the rumors outside!" Old Madam Cheng was so angry that her face turned red and her neck became thick.
She was already old, yet she was still being scolded by a junior.
"Your eldest brother was born weak, and everyone has seen it. Judge Xue personally came to diagnose him. How could there be any talk of switching babies? And your mother was frightened by a wild cat today, which led to premature birth. It was purely an accident. The idea of two lives lost in one body is sheer nonsense. Even if I, as your mother-in-law, dislike your mother, she's carrying the grandson I've been waiting for for over a decade. How could I possibly harm them both?"
"Old lady Cheng, you're really stubborn." Feng Yingying looked at Song Yu, "Sister Yu, take a look at the pot of medicine on the bedside table. Is it something that can cause heavy bleeding?"
Song Yu walked over and took a closer look. "That's right. If a pregnant woman drinks it, she will suffer from a difficult labor and heavy bleeding."
"Nonsense!" Old Madam Cheng said anxiously, "That's clearly a recipe for replenishing Qi and blood. If Shushu drinks it, she'll have a smooth delivery!"
Jiang Guanchen brought Meng Guangde over and asked, "Tell me, what kind of medicine is this?"
Meng Guangde glanced at Cheng Xiao's face and said, "This is a prescription for strengthening the body. Madam, drinking it will help you feel refreshed, relieve pain, and give birth smoothly."
Jiang Guanchen said with a cold face, "You are really dishonest. Come! Send him to the Dali Temple."
"No! I don't want to go to the Dali Temple!" Meng Guangde was terrified. He knew he would die if he went to the Dali Temple.
"Then tell the truth!"
Cheng Xiao glanced at him indifferently, and Meng Guangde's pupils shrank.
If the truth is told, no matter how the Marquis is the son-in-law of the Jiang family, the Marquis will be fine, but his family will be in danger.
"I've tampered with this pot of medicine. If Madam drinks it, both her body will be destroyed. Even the immortals can't save her."
Jiang Guanchen squatted down and slapped his face with the back of his knife. "Who ordered this? Cheng Xiao, his mother, or someone from the second branch of the Cheng family?"
Cheng Zhang's face turned pale with panic. Her mother-in-law would definitely sacrifice the second wife in order to save the first wife.
"No one ordered me to do this. I did it all by myself! Madam promised to reward me last time, but she didn't, and she even deducted my monthly salary. It was the old lady who made up for it. I have dedicated all these years to taking care of her body. It is all my credit that she was able to conceive a son. Moreover, I have worked hard to find doctors and medicine to treat your grandmother's eye disease for the past ten years. Just because I didn't check and took the credit for someone else's work, you doubt my medical skills. I am not satisfied with this, so I did such a foolish thing in a moment of confusion, Madam!"
Meng Guangde crawled forward a few steps, crying and begging for mercy, "I was mean and did something wrong. Madam, please forgive me for all the hard work I've put into taking care of you over the years!"
"Madam." Yanzhi was awakened by Song Yu. "She is talking nonsense. It's obvious that the Marquis wants to kill you."
"Nonsense!" Cheng Xiao said weakly while lying on the ground, "Shushu is my wife. She gave birth to my children. How could I harm her?"
Jiang Yunshu frowned. She didn't want to listen to Cheng Xiao's hypocrisy anymore. "Sister-in-law, bring Yu in!"
Cheng Xiao's pupils trembled!
Only now did he realize that the child's disappearance without reason had long been discovered by the Jiang family.
Everything they planned was happening right under the noses of the Jiang family!
Damn it, I shouldn’t have let him stay in the capital!
"Bang!"
Jinxiu and several servants roughly threw the unconscious Yu Ziyuan to the ground, and Yu Qingyao was also dragged in.
"Daddy, please save Mommy! They are going to kill her."
Cheng Xiao looked at Yu Ziyuan who was unconscious, and was furious. "What have you done! She just gave birth to a child today, are you trying to force her to death?"
"Heartbroken?" Jiang Yunshu sneered. "Didn't you say she was just a surrogate mother? My daughter is already this big, and you're still full of lies! Tonight, not only did you exchange the child for me to raise, but you also wanted to legitimately let your child enter the mansion, even at the cost of my life. Cheng Xiao, you're really calculating!"
"No!" Cheng Xiao continued to argue, "This girl is not my daughter, but hers. I asked her to be my surrogate mother because she was good at giving birth. Shushu, you have to believe me!"
The Jiang family was shocked. How could there be such a shameless person who could turn black into white!
"Cheng Xiao!" Jiang Yunzhou was exhausted. "Do you think we are blind? This child looks so much like you, isn't she your daughter?"
Cheng Xiao simply ignored Jiang Yunzhou's anger, looked at Jiang Yunshu affectionately, and said in a soft voice, "Shushu, you have to believe me, I only have you in my heart. She and I are just playing around. Her role is to give birth to a son for me. You are my wife."
Yu Qingyao's eyes were red. How could Daddy say that to Mommy?
Mother is his wife!
"Let me believe you?" Jiang Yunshu said with a smile: "Okay, I'll give you a chance! Sister Yu, can you wake her up?"
Song Yu took out a silver needle and gave Yu Ziyuan a few injections.
After a moment, Yu Ziyuan slowly opened her confused peach blossom eyes, not knowing where she was for a moment.
When he saw Cheng Xiao lying on the ground, he rushed over and said with a distressed tone, "Xiao, what's wrong with you? Your leg..."
Cheng Xiao reached out and pushed her away, saying coldly, "Go away! Don't touch me, Shushu will be angry!"
This was the first time Yu Ziyuan was yelled at by Cheng Xiao, and tears flowed uncontrollably!
Ah Xiao actually yelled at her for Jiang Yunshu!
Cheng Xiao felt distressed when she saw this, but her face remained cold and expressionless.
"Shushu, believe me, I only love you. I'm just flirting with her, just to get her to give birth to a son for us!"
"Mei Dai." Mei Dai, who was watching the show from the back, quickly pushed through the crowd and came forward. "Madam, what can I do for you?"
Jiang Yunshu raised his chin and said, "Pour out a bowl of the medicine from the pot and give it to the Marquis."
Cheng Xiao opened her eyes wide, "Shushu, what...what are you going to do?"
Jiang Yunshu said calmly, "Don't you want me to believe that you only love me? Then you can feed her this medicine yourself, and I will believe you."
"What?" A hint of coldness flashed in Cheng Xiao's eyes. "After all, she just gave birth to a son for you and me. Even if she doesn't have any credit, she has worked hard."
Jiang Yunshu laughed, "What does her son have to do with me? You're just lying to me. If you don't feed him, I'll do it myself!"
Yanzhi and Meidai quickly restrained Yu and pried open her mouth.
"No! Daddy, please save Mommy."
Cheng Xiao clenched his fists and didn't say anything for a moment.
“Daddy!”
Seeing Cheng Xiao remained indifferent, Yu Qingyao felt as if the sky had fallen.
Daddy has changed!
Jiang Yunshu walked forward with the medicine and looked at Yu Ziyuan's face carefully. She was a little older, but she looked good.
Especially those charming peach blossom eyes, which made her heart beat faster.
No wonder the bastard was willing to sacrifice her life for her.
Jiang Yunshu didn't hesitate, pinched her chin and was about to pour the medicine in his hand into her.
"stop!"
Yu Ziyuan uncontrollably shed a few tears of emotion.
She knew that Axiao would not let Jiang Yunshu do whatever he wanted!
Jiang Yunshu turned around and asked, "Why, you want to feed it yourself?"
Cheng Xiao: "What do you want to do to let her go?"
"It's very simple. I want you to admit with your own mouth that when our Jiang family was exiled back to Beijing, you didn't just happen to pass by. Instead, you deliberately brought Meng Guangde to rescue my mother, making our Jiang family owe you a favor. All of this was carefully planned by you so that my father would serve you, the Cheng family!"
"Shushu, you've been pregnant for a long time and you're starting to have wild thoughts..."
Before Madam Cheng could finish her words, Song Yu gave her a needle and she became speechless for a moment.
"As long as you admit it, I will release your beloved woman, and I will let you two live a peaceful life in the Cheng Mansion."
"Woo woo..." Old Madam Cheng made a whimpering sound. Don't say it!
"Jiang Yunshu! Don't force Ah Xiao!" Yu Ziyuan broke free from Yanzhi and Meidai's grip. "It's just a bowl of medicine! I'll drink it. Don't ruin the relationship between you two."
Yu Ziyuan snatched the medicine from Jiang Yunshu's hand and drank it.
Cheng Xiao was so anxious that she could only yell, "A Yuan! You can't drink!"
"Mother!" Yu Qingyao broke free from Cheng Qingmeng's hand, ran over and slammed the medicine on the ground.
"You two are truly a loving family of three." Jiang Yunshu said expressionlessly: "But it doesn't matter, there's still some in the pot! Yanzhi, hold on tight, I must feed you a bowl myself tonight to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
Cheng Xiao couldn't bear it any longer when she saw Jiang Yunshu walking towards Yu Ziyuan with the medicine in his hand again.
"No! Shushu!"
From what happened tonight, the Jiang family and the Cheng family are incompatible, and it is clear what the fate of the Cheng family will be.
He can't lose everything!
"...I admit that I like A Yuan, but I also really like you."
Jiang Yunshu paused for a moment, then quickly and accurately poured a bowl of medicine into Yu Ziyuan's mouth.
"Shushu! You promised me, why are you going back on your word!" Cheng Xiao was furious, but unfortunately she couldn't get up and could only rage helplessly.
Jiang Yunshu looked down at him and said, "Don't worry, she won't die. I won't go back on my word. From now on, you can stay in the mansion and live a good life. Come, take the three of them to the next room first!"
