Chapter 108 The Poisonous Woman Sends the Official to the Savior
"Second aunt, don't worry about me. It's just another cancellation of the engagement. No one will die. But if a venomous snake like you stays at home, I'm afraid we won't have a good life. So father, just do it and don't worry about your daughter."
Her words were so powerful that they cut off all Zhang's escape routes. She had not expected that the good marriage that everyone wanted was totally ignored by the eldest girl.
If she broke off the engagement again, no one would care whether she broke off the engagement voluntarily or was forced to do so. In the end, no one would come to her house again. Thinking that she would rather spend her lonely life to nail down this accusation, Zhang immediately gave up.
She got angry and started cursing.
"You little bitch, you're asking for death. You're just talking nonsense. You're just like your short-lived mother, you're used to putting on an act in front of others. Bah, you guys really think that you can act so high and mighty just because you're a noble lady. Do you expect others to be grateful for your charity?"
Hearing her words, the eyes of Jiang Huaishan and Jiang Shiyuan, father and daughter, became even colder.
It might be better to talk about other people, but even the wife (mother) who died young would be criticized. If they let Zhang go again this time, I'm afraid the heaven would be angry. So with a cold snort, Jiang Huaishan said immediately.
"I gave you a choice, but you didn't know how to cherish it. Well, then there's no need to say any more. Come on, shut them up and send them to the authorities. As for those people from the Zhang family, tie them all up and take them away!"
"Yes, my lord."
When Jiang Huaishan finished speaking, he glanced at Aunt Hai, who immediately stood up and spoke firmly.
"Since I have come forward to sue the Second Madam, I am not afraid of going to the government to confront her. I will follow my master's arrangements. The only exception is the Second Brother and the Fourth Miss. If they are implicated by me, please help them as they are the Second Master's bloodline!"
"You don't have to tell me that. I will take care of it."
Aunt Hai was determined to die today. If she couldn't take this opportunity to overthrow the Second Madam, there would be no chance for her to do so in the future. So even if she had to tell others about this humiliating thing, she was not afraid!
Jiang Shiyuan glanced at her, worry showing on his face.
If she went this time, Aunt Hai's reputation would be ruined. Jiang Shiyuan was not sure whether she could withstand the thunderous cheers from behind. Aunt Hai seemed to feel the kindness and concern of the eldest girl, and she smiled at her and said something in a low voice.
"Don't worry, young lady. I won't commit suicide."
Especially before the Second Madam was executed, she would definitely live and watch her die with her own eyes!
His anger rose, and he became more determined than before.
Jiang Huaishan took a look at her expression and knew that there was no time to lose, so he raised his foot to leave the house. However, as soon as he stood up, he heard a voice coming from outside.
"Prince Chun has arrived, and the Crown Princess has arrived."
Upon hearing that a backer had arrived, Zhang was so excited as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw that the old women who tried to catch her were nearly knocked to the ground. The same was true for other people in the Zhang family as well. They all placed their hopes outside.
Jiang Huaishan and Jiang Shiyuan looked at each other. At this moment they felt like they were shooting themselves in the foot.
Jiang Shiyuan originally wanted to use Prince Chun to stage a big show to sow discord between the two cousins of the Zhang family, but he didn't expect that the matter of Aunt Hai would appear halfway. If Jiang Shiyuan had known earlier, he would never have sent anyone to send the message. So now he is in a dilemma.
But since the decision has been made, it has been made. So even if Prince Chun comes, after all, this is the Jiang family's internal affairs and he cannot interfere. So the father and daughter calmed down a lot.
The Crown Prince's Consort Jiang Shijin is now more than four months pregnant, which is the time when the pregnancy is stable.
She was originally happy that the Zhao family members were seriously injured and could not enter the mansion because of the Lanyue Tower incident, but she did not expect to hear the news that her mother was going to be expelled from the mansion. How could she still sit still!
She had to come immediately to support her mother or to show goodwill. In short, she must not let her mother leave the Jiang Mansion at this moment, so she said to Jiang Huaishan with tears in her eyes.
"Uncle, Jin'er knows that she did something wrong and shouldn't have married into Prince Chun's mansion, but now I have a child and my elder sister is engaged to the Pei family. Aren't we looking forward to everything? Why do you keep harping on her? Even if my mother is wrong, she is still my mother. Even if you don't want to look at her, you should forgive her this time for the sake of my father who passed away many years ago."
She didn't know what her mother had done to Aunt Hai in order to win over the Third Young Master, so she thought her uncle would get angry, probably because of this old incident, which was why he spoke like this.
But when he heard her say this, Jiang Huaishan laughed sarcastically.
"The Crown Prince's Consort is already a married daughter, so there's no need to worry about the family affairs. This vicious woman schemes against the women in the family every day. Her intentions are so vicious that the gods are angry. If I don't send her to the authorities for investigation today, I'm afraid that thunder will strike the gate of my Jiang family. If the Crown Prince's Consort insists on stopping her, don't blame me for not caring about my relatives' face. Not only will I send her to the authorities, but I'll send her with drums and gongs!"
When Zhang heard that the officials would be escorted there with drums and gongs, she shook her head frantically.
He hid tightly in his daughter's arms, afraid that his evil deeds would be exposed and that the matter would implicate his daughter, so he regretted it deeply.
Seeing her like this, Aunt Hai's eyes flashed with some dissatisfaction.
Why is it that despite all the bad things she has done, her daughter can still become the high and mighty Crown Prince's consort, live a life of luxury and have children? And she and her children will be criticized because of these things. It is obviously not their fault, but they have to bear the suffering.
For a moment, I felt a little overwhelmed.
Seeing Aunt Hai like this, Jiang Shiyuan couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked Luluo to help her step back, then stood up and spoke coldly to Jiang Shijin.
"Princess, today we are dealing with the Jiang family's private affairs. If you are unwilling to report to the authorities, then we will handle it according to the family rules. Father has just said that the matter of a hundred cane strokes will be over."
one hundred?!
An ordinary woman would not be able to bear it even at the age of thirty, let alone at the age of one hundred. She was determined to kill her mother. Thinking of this, her resentment towards Jiang Shiyuan became even more prominent, but she also knew that she could do nothing about it, so she turned around and cried to the prince.
"Sir, are you going to watch them treat my mother like this? She is your biological mother-in-law! She is also the grandmother of my unborn child! If they really treat her, where is the face of Prince Chun's Mansion? Where is your face?"
She sounded so sad and heartbroken, but unfortunately, when Prince Song came to visit today, he was not visiting her but Jiang Shiyuan who was standing not far away.
