Chen Qing looked at Marquis Zhongyong and saw him nod. He then stepped forward and told him about how Ye Zhen had been asked by the General's Mansion to take a side road that day.
In conclusion, "As the young mistress said, she indeed had no contact with the servants of the General's Mansion."
Ye Zhen looked sad, with tears welling up in her eyes.
"The daughter doesn't understand what she did wrong to displease her mother so much that she wants to kill her."
Everyone says that parents' love for their children is innate, but my mother doesn't love me. Sometimes I even wonder if I'm not her daughter at all.
Everyone cast suspicious glances at Wang Shi. If what Ye Zhen said was true, then Wang Shi was indeed acting strangely.
What kind of mother doesn't help her daughter, but instead adds fuel to the fire every time?
Ye Zhengqing was greatly alarmed, worried that things would get out of control, and hurriedly stepped in to smooth things over.
"Zhen'er, you're overthinking it. Of course you're our daughter."
Your mother didn't dislike you; she just fell seriously ill after giving birth to you. Your grandfather also suddenly passed away at that time, and later your brother died in battle. Thinking of the Taoist priest's divination, your mother became obsessed with the matter.
But she has feelings for you. She wants to take you back because she's worried that you won't be able to handle the wealth and status of the Marquis's mansion and that it might harm you.
Parents who love their children plan far ahead for them. We don't ask for wealth and glory for you; we only hope that you are safe and healthy.
He then rebuked Wang, "I know you have good intentions for Zhen'er and want to take her away from this wealthy place."
But your methods are too extreme, they will break your daughter's heart, you oh you..."
Ye Zhengqing has been staying at the Marquis's residence for the past few days. The Marquis of Zhongyong has been busy with military affairs these days, so the two still don't have much contact. However, he is content because outsiders don't know the details and only think that the two are close relatives by marriage.
Therefore, his superiors have been more lenient with him these past few days, but who would have thought that Ye Wantang and Madam Wang would cause trouble again.
He was furious, which is why his tone when scolding Wang was particularly earnest.
Taking advantage of the situation, Wang covered her face and cried, "I'm scared, she's my only daughter."
It's my fault. I shouldn't have given birth to her at that time. It's all my fault.
Ye Zhen also shed tears.
"If that's the case, why did Father and Mother marry me into the Marquis's mansion back then? Wouldn't it have been better to choose an ordinary family for me in the countryside?"
Xie Tingzhou observed their reactions with a cold eye, his gaze growing increasingly profound.
Finally, her gaze fell on Ye Wantang's face. Seeing the panic that was hard to hide on her face, Xie Tingzhou had an absurd idea.
Ye Zhengqing was unaware that someone had seen through his secret, and he was at a loss for words. After stammering for a while, he sighed heavily, "This is the contradiction of being a parent."
I fear you're not destined for wealth and status, yet I also hope you'll live a good life... Sigh...
However, these words lacked impact. Most of the people present were parents, and they knew perfectly well what true love for children was like.
The seeds of doubt had been sown in everyone's hearts. Ye Zhen, seeing that things were going well, decided to stop and move on to the next step.
