"Shut up!" Jiang Qinyu was almost amused by her shameless words. "Liu Shi, ask yourself honestly, do you have the right to say that?"
If she didn't want Shufan and Pan'er to suffer further harm, she would definitely expose Liu Yuqing's true colors in front of everyone again!
Children are sensitive. The two children have finally become more confident and cheerful. If they keep bringing up the fact that their biological mother abandoned them after giving birth to them, what a blow that would be to Shufan and Pan'er.
However, Shu Fan jumped out of the carriage to do what Jiang Qinyu didn't want to do.
A small figure stood in front of Jiang Qinyu, Shu Fan's young face filled with coldness and disappointment. "You are not worthy to say such things to your aunt!"
Although he was young, his words were impactful and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
In contrast, Liu Yuqing's gaze unconsciously averted when she saw Shu Fan.
"This child doesn't even recognize his own mother?"
"She was raised by her aunt, so isn't it understandable that she's not close to her biological mother?"
"Oh dear, I suggest you listen to what the child has to say before you speak. What if you've wronged the general's wife?"
"..."
The crowd quickly quieted down, and Shufan continued, "You ran off with another man after you gave birth to my brother and me. My father went to look for you but died on the way. You've never sent a single message to my aunt all these years. My sister and I thought you still remembered us, but what about you?"
A flicker of pain crossed his eyes, his eyes welled up with tears, and his voice suddenly rose, "All you want is to get money from your aunt!"
These words immediately caused an uproar among those around them.
"I knew it wasn't that simple."
"Pah! This woman must be obsessed with money! She doesn't want her own children, she just wants money?"
"No wonder she insisted on taking the child back. Look how well the general's wife raises the child. If she really succeeds, she can use the child as an excuse to extort money from the general's wife no matter what."
"Oh, now that you mention it, I understand. This woman really does distort the truth!"
"you do not say……"
Jiang Qinyu placed her hand on Shufan's shoulder with heartache, bent down and whispered, "Be good, go back to the car, Auntie will take care of it."
Shufan turned to look at her and shook his head firmly, "She is our mother. Aunt, you will suffer if you go against her. I will handle it myself!"
Jiang Qinyu felt both heartache and sorrow. She glared fiercely at Liu Yuqing, "Last time in Dingshui Village, you completely severed ties with Shufan and Pan'er. After all this commotion today, could it be that you've been kicked out by the Hu family?"
After Shufan and Pan'er made their stance clear the last time, Jiang Qinyu stopped paying attention to Liu Yuqing's situation and didn't know why she had come to Qinzhou.
But this woman loves money, so her eagerness to reunite Shufan and Pan'er must be related to money.
Liu Yuqing avoided eye contact and said weakly, "You're talking nonsense! I just miss my children! Besides, my master has agreed to accept Shufan and Pan'er and agrees to let me bring them back to the Hu family..."
“Shufan and Pan’er are members of the Jiang family, so the Hu family need not trouble themselves with them.” Jiang Qinyu interrupted her directly and said to Aping, “You take the young master and young lady back first.”
"Yes, Madam!" Aping immediately carried Shufan into the carriage and drove it away before the onlookers could react.
After the children left, Jiang Qinyu's face turned completely cold. She stared sharply at Liu Yuqing and said, "I don't care what you're up to. Shufan and Pan'er are descendants of the Jiang family. They have long since severed ties with you. If you come to bother me again because of this, I will not let you off the hook!"
It's obvious that Liu Yuqing must have made some promise to the Hu family, otherwise why would that Hu businessman agree to take Shufan and Pan'er back?
This promise was mostly related to her and Lu Yanzheng's identities. Liu Yuqing thought that if she had the child under her control, Lu Yanzheng would give in. Unfortunately, she wouldn't have the chance.
If there weren't so many people here, Jiang Qinyu wouldn't have let Liu Yuqing off so easily today. After all, Lu Yanzheng's status is different now, and she can't do anything too outrageous on the surface.
After Jiang Qinyu finished speaking, she turned and left.
The onlookers who had just spoken up for Liu Yuqing no longer stood by her side. They consciously made way for Jiang Qinyu and then surrounded Liu Yuqing.
"Oh my god, how can there be a mother like you in this world? Not only did you run off with some random man right after giving birth, but you also have the nerve to let the child go to someone else's house with you?"
"Oh, I remember now! Isn't she that girl who recently opened a shop in Qinzhou... I think her surname is Hu? She's the concubine of the Hu family's boss!"
"Now that you mention it, I vaguely remember it. No wonder it looked familiar..."
"That's hilarious! She's just a concubine, and she dares to bring her ex-husband's child to her current husband's house? If I were that child, I wouldn't go either. Isn't it better to be a son or daughter of the General's Mansion than to live as a dependent?"
"That's right. Although it seems like we're living under someone else's roof in the General's mansion, just look at how the General's wife acted just now. She cherishes those two children more than the apples of her eye!"
"This woman is outrageous. That businessman surnamed Hu is blind to have chosen such a heartless and cruel woman..."
Liu Yuqing was so embarrassed by everyone's comments that she covered her face and ran away in shame.
Jiang Qinyu looked in the direction Liu Yuqing had left, and then said to Liu Yazi, "Go and see where she went."
"Okay, Sister-in-law Lu." Liu Yazi immediately chased after her upon hearing this.
Grandpa Lu watched this scene with curiosity. "Girl, are you planning to teach her a lesson in secret? I know this stuff, why don't I help you?"
Jiang Qinyu was taken aback when she heard this, then said with a wry smile, "No, Grandpa, I just wanted to see if there was anyone else behind her."
Although she did want to find someone to teach Liu Yuqing a lesson in secret, the person she chose had to be A Ping. Anyone else could give herself away, but only A Ping could do it without anyone noticing.
"Isn't that the house of her current husband behind her?" Old Master Lu was still puzzled.
Jiang Qinyu shook her head, "I don't know either, but her man's family doesn't have any background, so he doesn't seem like the kind of person who would dare to come looking for her so easily."
She had seen the merchant surnamed Hu from afar, and Yunzhu had inquired about his family situation before. She didn't really believe that he would dare to say that he was willing to accept Shufan and Pan'er.
Nowadays, men value blood ties very much; no one is willing to raise children who are not their own.
This was one of the reasons why the original owner didn't dare to be high-profile in the Lu family before, because she was afraid that the Lu family would no longer be willing to support Shufan and Pan'er. At the same time, she was very grateful to Old Man Lu and Madam Chen for being willing to support them.
"That girl, have you ever offended anyone?" Old Master Lu stroked his beard, deep in thought.
