Chapter 181 A Daughter's Revenge
Living people can be used to verify kinship, and so can corpses.
Warm blood dripped from Cheng Wenjin's fingertips, one drop, two drops... silently falling on the young, white, withered bones.
The air around seemed to freeze in an instant, and everyone held their breath, staring at the skeleton without blinking.
Not long after...
The eldest son of the Cheng family suddenly shouted, "It's seeping in! Wen Jin's blood is seeping in!!"
He seemed to want justice for his nephew, speaking loudly and clearly:
"Drop the blood of the living into the bones of the dead. If the blood can melt into the bones and marrow and disappear without a trace, then it is the blood of the closest relative! Otherwise, it is a stranger!"
"God have mercy! Huai Jin... Huai Jin is indeed the blood of my Cheng family!!"
Mrs. Kong staggered and fell heavily to the ground, her face turning pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"How is that possible?"
"how so?"
"Huai Jin...how could he be the Cheng family's child?"
Mrs. Kong looked terrified and muttered to herself.
Then he looked at Kong Yingxue angrily: "Ruoruo said that she saw you and a man, always secretly meeting at the corner gate of the Kong family at night..."
"I doubted his authenticity at first, and I followed you from a distance once. I'm sure I saw that man's back!"
"Who is he? Who is he?!" Mrs. Kong became more and more hysterical.
"Besides, it's not easy for any of the women in my Su family to get pregnant. How come you got pregnant the moment you entered the Cheng Mansion? Not only that, Huaijin gave birth a full month prematurely!"
“One month—!!”
"Huai Jin...how could it be the Cheng family's child?!"
Cheng Wenjin frowned: "When Yingxue married me, she was indeed a virgin."
"She gave birth prematurely because your niece Su Ruoruo tripped over her left foot when she came to visit Yingxue in my house, pushing her. This caused Yingxue to have a miscarriage, and many of my servants can testify to this."
Mrs. Kong was stunned. She remembered Yingxue had complained to her about this.
But she always thought...she thought her daughter Yingxue had set up Ruoruo to conceal the fact that she was pregnant before marriage!
For this, for this, she still felt guilty towards Su Ruoruo. She had made up for her so much, both materially and spiritually...
"Ha!" Kong Yingxue collapsed on the ground, looking up at the sky and crying and laughing, "Ahahahahahahahaha! Hahahahahahahahahahaha..."
She turned her head, staring at her mother Su with her scarlet eyes, without blinking: "Speaking of Jiaomen, I seem to remember who you are talking about..."
“…” Mrs. Kong’s eyes immediately widened.
Look at this! Look at this!
She said she didn't wrongly accuse this evil girl! ?
Even if Huai Jin is really the child of the Cheng family, even if she really misunderstood, she meant well but ended up doing something bad!
It’s not her fault...
It’s all her daughter’s fault for being morally corrupt and having no self-control!
It’s all because Huaijin is too pretty. He looks neither like his father nor his mother!
Mrs. Kong held her breath and concentrated, her back subconsciously straightened.
She pricked up her ears and heard Kong Yingxue's hoarse voice tiredly say:
"My mother was born to a second wife, and my grandmother's family background was not prominent, so when she married into the Kong family, her dowry was pitifully small."
"My mother really loves me. Ever since I was born, she has been saving up a dowry for me by any means necessary..."
"Ever since I was old enough to understand, I felt bad for my mother, who schemed and plotted all day long for money... So I practiced needlework diligently. Besides wanting to share some of the burden with you, I also wanted to find an opportunity to tell you that I, Kong Yingxue, can live well without relying on a dowry."
"Oh……"
Kong Yingxue suddenly smiled bitterly.
"What you said about me having a secret meeting with a man at the corner gate of the Confucius Mansion was actually my wet nurse accompanying me to sell my embroidered handkerchiefs and other items to the owner of the clothing shop..."
? ? !!
Mrs. Kong's straight back bent down in an instant, as if all her strength had been suddenly drained away.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out...
Tears rolled down her cheeks, and Kong Yingxue smiled sadly, "It's been like this since I was little! You believe the same thing or the same words when others say them, but you never believe what I say, no matter what it is!"
"Mother... why is this happening?"
"If you would only trust me, ask me, listen to my explanation, confront me..."
"My Jin'er... My Jin'er wouldn't have died so miserably... wouldn't have died so painfully..."
“Ahhhhh…”
Kong Yingxue burst into tears.
She waved her arms, screamed, and slapped herself in the face.
The "pa pa pa pa" sound made Mrs. Kong feel pain in her heart.
"Don't! Good Xue'er, don't do this. Mother is scared..."
"Don't hurt yourself. I was wrong. Please, okay?"
Su couldn't stop crying.
She wanted to step forward to stop her precious daughter, wanted to hug her, wanted to tell her that she was responsible for all the sins, wanted to persuade her to let go of everything and return to Cheng Mansion to live a good life.
But her arm was removed, and the pain was excruciating. Her legs were so weak that she had no strength at all...
The Cheng family, father and son, were too lazy to watch the miserable drama of the Kong family mother and son, so they went to the courtyard to discuss their separate actions...
A team is responsible for arresting and interrogating Mrs. Kong. They must find the "adoptive father and mother" she mentioned and make them pay for their blood debt with blood!
Another team took Cheng Huaijin's remains back to the city and buried the poor child as soon as possible.
Just as the people outside came to a conclusion, a shrill cry suddenly rang out, instantly piercing everyone's eardrums!
Everyone looked at each other subconsciously, then quickly turned around and went back to the house.
I was horrified to see Kong Yingxue lying in a pool of blood, holding a bloody dagger in her hand.
"Yingxue!?" Cheng Wenjin rushed in, hugged Kong Yingxue in his arms, and tightly covered the incision on her abdomen.
"What are you doing? Why are you so stupid?"
"You're right! It's not your fault! Why did you do this?!"
Hearing that his father had already ordered someone to fetch the carriage, Cheng Wenjin pressed even harder on her wound: "Hold on a little longer! Just hold on, I'll take you back to the city to see a doctor!"
Kong Yingxue clutched Cheng Wenjin's sleeve with all her might, shaking her head with difficulty: "My mother... gave birth to me... raised me... loved me... I... I can't kill her to... to avenge our son... to avenge his hatred."
"In that case..."
"Since she killed... killed my child... I will kill... kill her child... let her taste... taste the pain of losing a loved one..."
Kong Yingxue suddenly vomited two mouthfuls of blood, her voice becoming increasingly broken and trembling...
"I...I'm sorry for you...I'm sorry for the Cheng family...everyone who has treated me well..."
“Woo…”
"I thank you...I apologize...on behalf of my...my mother..."
"Please... spare her... spare her life..."
Kong Yingxue looked outside the door.
She stared with wide eyes at the soul bottle on Tang Bao's waist: "The road to the underworld is long... Jin'er, don't be afraid... Mother... Mother is here to accompany you..."
As the voice fell, Kong Yingxue's head tilted, and the hand that was clutching Cheng Wenjin's sleeve suddenly fell to the ground...
“Ah—ah—!” Mrs. Kong’s eyes widened and she fainted immediately.
In the yard, the soul bottle on Tang Bao's waist began to shake uncontrollably.
