Chapter 209 Mysterious Letter, Insider

Pulling the old lady's scalp, Jiang banged her head against the bed board. All the grievances and resentment accumulated in her heart burst out at once. However, she did not lose all her rationality. She lowered her voice and instinctively dragged the old lady's body to hit the hard object, again and again:

"This is your retribution!"

Because the old lady's body was always half stiff, and she trembled when she raised her hand. Normally, if she had any needs, she could only use her body to knock things at hand to attract attention, so it was inevitable that she had some bumps and bruises on her body.

All her bones seemed to be broken. The old lady was crying in pain, sobbing and drooling uncontrollably, and she couldn't hear anything outside.

"I have worked hard for twenty years to raise children for the Marquis's family. How did you treat me and what did you promise me?"

"My husband is working hard to gain fame and fortune, and you are thinking about your youngest son bringing honor to the family. If you were not both the boss and the lieutenant, greedy and selfish, how could it have turned out like this?"

"I'm stupid too. We're both married officially, and we're both daughters-in-law. If you can abandon Mu Lianzhi, why won't you abandon me? You won't, but it's just because the time has not come yet or the benefits are not big enough."

"When it comes to the future of the Marquisate and the heirs, what am I?"

"For twenty years, I have been filial to my parents-in-law, served my husband, and taken care of my children. I have obeyed you in everything and given up everything that the eldest wife should have given up. But what have I gained in the end?"

"If it weren't for you, Shao Chong's affair wouldn't have been exposed, and he would still be a promising young Imperial Academy student with a promising future. If it weren't for you, my Fei'er wouldn't have to tolerate your cousin. If it weren't for you, without Yuchi's accident, our family would still be a loving couple with both sons and daughters. Even if Yuchi is stupid, not as good as Ling Wenzhan, and has no future, we still have hope and can continue to run slowly."

"But now, even if he succeeds overnight, what does it have to do with me?"

"He won't even come into my room now."

"Why am I still working so hard in this huge mansion? Just so that you can have no worries and get angry at me?"

Jiang was crying and regretting her decision. She pulled and pushed the old lady's body violently, and slammed it to the ground. She was too tired to drag her anymore, and then she threw the old lady on the bed.

"Don't think about it!"

"What I can't get, no one can get."

After venting her anger, Jiang felt relieved. Facing the old lady's horrified face, she combed her hair and suddenly smiled:

"Why are you scared? I haven't even told you what I'm going to do."

Leaning over, getting closer to the old lady, she lowered her voice a bit:

"Mother, do you think I will let you get better and continue to act like your mother-in-law to me?"

"When I first entered the government, I didn't plan to let Ling Wenzhan come back. Even if you weren't paralyzed, we didn't plan to recognize him. Although Shao Cong is useless, there is still hope for the first wife, right? I have endured and worked hard for the Marquis' Mansion for twenty years. How could I let his son take away everything from my child?"

"Even if Shao Chong is dead, the wealth and honor of the Marquis's Mansion will still be hers!"

"As for the bloodline of the second wife that you are so concerned about, I have already found a way for him. There are so many brothels, being a pimp should be a good choice, right?"

Looking at the dim yellow eyes that were almost popping out of their sockets, Jiang just wanted to laugh. Was she angry or frightened?

Now she has seen through it all. How could this old man care about them? What she wants is the glory of the Marquis's Mansion and the honor of her old lady. What she cares about is never which heir of the Marquis's Mansion, but which heir is beneficial to the Marquis's Mansion.

"Your disabled son is begging outside the door. I don't know which of you will leave first. Maybe your beloved little son will be waiting for you on the road when you leave."

"He's gone, and you still want the eldest wife to raise his son for him? Do you really think your eldest son is stupid?"

"Even if he has the love of an uncle, he doesn't necessarily have the generosity of a man! If you hadn't lied to me again and again, if you had been willing to deal with her earlier, this wouldn't be the case."

"She gave you another grandson. Are you happy?"

"But I have plenty of time to deal with these two babies. I'm just not ruthless enough. Otherwise, a bowl of cold medicine would kill him right now..."

"But the child is innocent, so what's the point? The former is also painful, isn't it? Why should I offend you at this time?"

"We've been married for more than 20 years, and he probably hasn't had as much happiness as he has in his entire life. How could I pour cold water on him at this time? If he were reinstated, without you guys restraining him, he would probably have no regrets in his life."

"So, mother, you can't die. Wait for him to be reinstated and continue to be arrogant. After this period of fame passes, I will just stuff a few maids and prostitutes into his room. Do you think he will still remember Sang Xi and care about the life and death of other people's sons?"

"Please don't die. If you die, what will I do if I get angry in the future?"

What a great idea.

If Ling Yuchi made her unhappy, she would make her life miserable.

As if she had suddenly discovered a new world, Jiang's eyes lit up. She stood up without caring what the old lady said while sobbing.

"Mother, your daughter-in-law will find you a good doctor to treat this situation. As for the words, please stop talking. It's just making a lot of noise!"

Her face darkened, and she turned and walked straight out the door. Behind her, the old lady became anxious and foamed at the mouth again.

……

After leaving Fudeyuan, Jiang felt a little better. She didn't want to walk to the small garden, but she met Mu Lianzhi who came back from the back door from afar. Seeing her carrying a lot of bags and looking very happy, she thought she was probably going next door to discuss the marriage with her parents. Jiang felt uneasy again.

Although she has nothing to do with her in the future, if she follows Beitang Yizhen and soars to the sky in the future——

Why should a widow do that?

No, I can't let her have her way!

With a flash of inspiration, Jiang turned around and hurried back to Fudeyuan.

……

Soon, news spread from the Marquis' Mansion that Jiang was going to hold a full-moon banquet for the little master. Because the old lady's birthday was approaching, five consecutive days of banquets were held in advance. On the one hand, it was to celebrate, on the other hand, it was to bring good luck, and on the other hand, of course, it was to make it easier for Ling Yuchi to build relationships.

Mu Lianzhi heard about it but didn't take it seriously.

Because apart from living in the Marquis' Mansion, she has basically no relationship with the Mansion, and she basically does not participate in the affairs of the Mansion.

Apart from occasionally visiting her parents and playing with her younger brother, she was thinking about how to completely break free from the constraints of the Dragon Spirit Sect and get rid of the hot potato in her hands - Mu Dongzhu.

Knowing that the matter with the Emperor could not be delayed for too long without any progress, Mu Lianzhi would take time out to sit down next door for several days in a row. It seemed like they were just visiting, but in fact they were just quickly exchanging information.

That day, after the final discussion, Mu Lianzhi came back early.

Sitting down in front of the dressing table, she just opened the drawer and saw a note hidden inside. She secretly opened it and her face suddenly changed.

Who?

Who sent her this letter?
