Chapter 421 Little Brother Doesn’t Need You
"It's already past noon, why isn't Shushu awake yet?"
Old Madam Jiang was very anxious when she saw Jiang Yunshu was still unconscious.
"Old Madam, don't worry." Bai Luoheng said, "Madam Hou not only had a miscarriage last night, but she also spent a lot of energy. She will wake up when she has rested enough."
"How long will it take?"
Bai Luoheng glanced at Jiang Yunshu's pulse and said, "He woke up in about half an incense stick of time."
At this time, Jinxiu walked in and whispered to Feng Yingying, "Old Madam Cheng doesn't believe Divine Doctor Bai's diagnosis and is clamoring to call the imperial physician. I'm worried that if I don't call the imperial physician, she'll be furious and die."
Madam Jiang: "Yingying, please send someone to ask Judge Xue to come over first. I will go and meet this old hag. She can't just die like this."
"The Jiang family still calls themselves a family of scholars, but what a shame! They are nothing but vulgar bandits! They are completely lawless!"
Nanny Niu quickly advised, "Old Madam, Doctor Bai said you had a stroke. You must not get angry again. Right now, only one side of your body is paralyzed. If you get angry again, the consequences will be serious. At the very least, your mouth and eyes might become crooked and you might become unable to speak. At worst, your life might be in danger."
Madam Cheng took a deep breath. "It must be Shushu's doing. She's the one who harmed me! Doctor Bai is one of their men. I didn't have a stroke, I must have been poisoned! Hurry up and find a way to sneak out and call the imperial physician! Let the imperial physician come and detoxify me!"
Niu Ma Ma looked troubled. "There are only Jiang family members outside. I can't get out at all."
Madam Cheng calmed down for a moment and said, "Over the left back wall of the lotus pond in the small Buddhist temple is the old uncle's back garden."
Niu Mama suddenly realized, "I will go there right now."
"No, wait until dark."
"Don't bother with that." Old Madam Jiang and Nanny Gui walked in with stern faces. "My daughter-in-law had someone seal off your underground passage last night!"
When Old Madam Cheng saw Old Madam Jiang again, she was filled with hatred.
"My son is your savior, yet you are so ungrateful that you have imprisoned us, an orphan and a widow. Do you still have a conscience? Aren't you afraid of going blind again after doing so many immoral things?"
"Pa!" Old Madam Jiang slapped him hard with a dark face.
"How ungrateful are we, the Jiang family? I've seen people twisting right and wrong, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you! Let me tell you, if Shushu hadn't wanted to divorce, your entire Cheng family would have been exiled! Oh, no, you plotted to murder Shushu twice, and with all the evidence, you're guilty of a capital crime."
"You're talking nonsense!" Old Madam Cheng covered her slapped face and said angrily, "It was just an accident. Everyone saw it. The witnesses and evidence were all fabricated by your Jiang family!"
Madam Jiang laughed angrily, "If you're so confident, then let's go to court! I want to see how good you are at making excuses. Also, my Shushu has been wronged, and we Jiang family members have come to support her. Who dares to say anything wrong about us Jiang family members? I can totally ask the Emperor to issue an imperial decree for Shushu to divorce Cheng Xiao. As for the current situation of your Cheng family, you know it in your heart. Madam Gui, let's go!"
"Don't!" Madam Cheng was so anxious that she half stood up and fell back. She could only shout, "Don't leave, my dear. We can't go to court!"
Madam Jiang stopped and looked back at her, "Why? Are you scared now?"
"Marriage is a union of two families. Our grandchildren are already so old, how can we just divorce them? My Ah Xiao really loves Shu Shu. That woman is just a tool for our Cheng family to give birth to a son. When Shu Shu wakes up, let her do whatever she wants."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Nuo ran in, "Grandma Jiang, Aunt Shushu is awake."
Madam Jiang was in a hurry to see Jiang Yunshu, so she ignored Madam Cheng and hurried out of the room.
Wen Nuo didn't leave in a hurry. He smiled at Old Madam Cheng and said, "That young man who was brave enough to do something righteous and meddlesome is me."
Old Madam Cheng looked at Wen Nuo with deep regret. Why didn't he think about the child?
"...Actually, at first I simply had a liking for the little brother and wanted to steal him away to be my servant. But after rescuing him, I discovered he had been severely beaten and abused and didn't have many days left to live. That's when I asked my sister to examine him. Only after seeing his appearance did I realize he was Aunt Shushu's child!"
I see!
"Child, how is he...how is his health now? I saw him last night and he looked very thin."
"Don't worry, little brother is slowly recovering and will gain weight in a few days."
Madam Cheng asked again, "Could you please bring him to see me?"
Wen Nuo shook his head, "Sorry, little brother won't come to see you."
Wen Nuo said this and turned and left.
"Young Master, please stay. He is my grandson and he needs a grandmother to spoil him."
Wen Nuo put away the smile on his face and looked at her coldly, "When the little brother was able to speak, he told me that there was a kind old lady who would occasionally appear at the back door of the Yu Mansion and bring him a lot of delicious food. After seeing that old lady, he would be able to live a life of full meals for a long time."
"Whenever he was beaten or starved, he longed for the kind old lady to appear, but it would take a long time for her to show up. Every time she showed up, it was when the little brother was about to be beaten to death."
"Last time, little brother was almost beaten to death, and I showed up in time to take him away! Otherwise, he would have really died! Later, little brother found out that you were the old lady in the Jiang Mansion. Do you know how little brother felt at that time? You are his biological grandmother. You knew he was suffering, so why didn't you take him away?"
"I……"
Mrs. Cheng was speechless after being questioned.
"...You want to acknowledge him now? Why did you do it earlier? You don't even consider your little brother as your grandson, and your little brother doesn't need your love and affection."
Wen Nuo turned around and left angrily.
"Ouch..." Madam Cheng fell back onto the bed as if she had been hit hard. "How could my eldest grandson not acknowledge me as his grandmother..."
If she had taken him away and placed him somewhere else to raise him.
The Jiang family will never know!
Hey, it's too late to say anything now...
Fangfei Garden
When Old Madam Jiang reached the door of the inner room of the main house, Feng Yingying and Jiang Shiyun, mother and daughter, covered her mouth and pulled her back in time.
In front of the bed in the inner room, Wen Shu and Cheng Qingmeng fed Jiang Yunshu nourishing porridge one spoonful at a time.
Mrs. Jiang was very pleased to see this scene, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously. It was really not in vain that Shushu gave birth to these two children.
I know I feel sorry for Shushu.
After Jiang Yunshu finished his meal, Mrs. Jiang brought Feng Yingying and her daughter in.
"Shushu, are you feeling any discomfort now?"
"I'm fine. I'm warm now." Jiang Yunshu got out of bed and pulled Madam Jiang to sit on the couch. "Shushu, I'm sorry for making mother worry."
Madam Jiang snorted, "If you want me not to worry, then divorce Cheng Xiao immediately, cut ties with the Cheng family, and take Meng'er and Shu'er back to your parents' home!"
Jiang Yunshu looked at Cheng Qingmeng, "Meng'er, take your cousin and your elder brother to the yard first."
Cheng Qingmeng pulled the two of them out of the room without saying a word.
"Cousin, cousin."
"Cousin!" Jiang Shiyun ran over and hugged Song Yu tightly. "Is the big thing done?"
"Don't mention it, the two of them were not deceived."
Cheng Qingmeng pulled Song Yu to the pavilion.
Wen Nuo also entered the yard at this time. Seeing this, he hurriedly followed and sent all the servants out of the yard.
"Cousin, what's the situation? Tell us in detail."
Song Yu told them everything.
Cheng Qingmeng pondered for a moment. "Prince Xiao can't possibly treat Du Zhihuan as his sister. He's doing this to make you believe that he's devoted to you. He'll never be loyal to one person once he gains power. And is Du Zhihuan really terminally ill? You should take her pulse today. What if she's faking her own death? That would make it easy for her to attack you behind your back."
Jiang Shiyun said, "She has lost a lot of weight and even took annual leave. Sect Leader Qin said she was coughing up blood, which couldn't be fake. If my cousin took her pulse, and she can cure her terminal illness, wouldn't that put my cousin in a difficult position?"
"Cousin didn't have to save her. She could have just asked someone from the underworld to find a doctor like Song Mingzhu did, eh?" Cheng Qingmeng suddenly turned to Song Yu and said, "Didn't you say her terminal illness might have been caused by Song Mingzhu? Could you please ask Song Mingzhu if she did that?"
Wen Nuo: "...Song Mingzhu doesn't even know that we know Du Zhihuan is not her daughter. We investigated all of this behind the scenes. How can you ask? If Du Zhihuan really had some conspiracy, she would definitely arrange for people to protect the Song Mansion and keep an eye on Song Mingzhu's every move. In her eyes, Song Mingzhu is her biological mother."
Cheng Qingmeng said, "Then let's go directly to that house in the west of the city and interrogate that old man and make him confess!"
