As soon as the words fell, the hall fell into deathly silence.

Jiang Mingjin looked at Jiang Mingwei in disbelief and asked in a low voice: "What did you just say?"

Jiang Mingwei was furious, but when she looked at Li Yihuan, whose face turned pale in his arms, she couldn't bear it.

He took a deep breath and spoke again: "I said my sister-in-law was poisoned..."

"Shut up! That's nonsense! I didn't expect you to be such a heartless person. You cursed your sister-in-law and her unborn baby as soon as you came back today!"

"Do you know that this child is also your nephew and is related to you by blood?"

Jiang Mingwei was slightly stunned, and laughed hastily, her face full of sarcasm and disappointment.

"So you don't believe me?"

Jiang Mingjin snorted coldly and swung his sleeves in anger. There was a coldness in his eyes. It didn't seem like he was looking at his sister, but at an enemy with whom he had a deep hatred.

It's true that he feels sorry for Jiang Mingwei and that he owes her, but it's also true that he hates her!

"How can I trust you? Jiang Mingwei, you are a complete disaster!"

"You killed your sister-in-law's unborn baby before, causing unrest in the whole family. Your father and mother passed away because of excessive worry about you. Now that you're married, you're still not content!"

He became more and more annoyed as he spoke, and hurled harsh words at Jiang Mingwei, "If I had known this would happen, I would have closed the door and refused to see you! If General Wei hadn't come with you, do you think I would be willing to see you?"

"That's enough, my husband, stop talking!"

Li Yihuan hurriedly tried to stop him, her pretty face full of nervousness, and she stretched out her hand to stop him.

"Weiwei means well, she has no ill intentions. You are her brother, why are you doing this?"

"Good intentions?" Jiang Mingjin sneered, raised his head to look at Jiang Mingwei, and said sarcastically: "You are an unlearned person, how could you know medical skills? You don't even know how to make up a good story, it's really heartless!"

Jiang Mingwei felt depressed and felt like she couldn't spit out or swallow the blood.

Is this really my brother?

Fortunately, thanks to Li Yihuan's lobbying, her opinion of Jiang Mingjin changed a little.

Now it seems that he really hates himself to the core!

"So, in my brother's eyes, I am just such a person." Jiang Mingwei chuckled to herself, "After Wei Zhi's death, was it possible that my brother even hoped that I would hang myself with a white silk ribbon and follow him to the afterlife, so as to preserve the reputation of a loyal Jiang family girl?"

There was a flash of panic in Jiang Mingjin's eyes, but his tone was stubborn.

"This is your business, and has nothing to do with me! Jiang Mingwei, ever since you killed my child, I no longer consider you my sister."

A warm liquid flowed down her cheek. Jiang Mingwei reached out to touch it and felt a handful of tears.

She took a deep breath, and her heart felt like it was being tightly gripped.

"Well, I will just pretend that I don't have a brother like you. I hope you can always be confident and don't regret it after you hurt your sister-in-law and the child!"

"Jiang Mingwei, how dare you curse them?"

Jiang Mingjin was furious. He took two steps forward and raised his palm high. "Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of my parents!"

He was too fast and there was no time for Jiang Mingwei to dodge. She closed her eyes and subconsciously raised her hand to block.

I just felt a gust of wind passing by me, and the slap never landed on my face.

She was feeling uneasy, and when she looked up she saw Wei Jing holding Jiang Mingjin's hand tightly.

The two looked at each other, and a flash of lightning flashed...

After all, he was a military general, so Wei Jing was calm and composed. The strength of his hands made Jiang Mingjin look a little embarrassed.

Jiang Mingjin pushed him away with his backhand and staggered backwards. Li Yihuan hurriedly supported him.

Patting his wife soothingly, he looked at Wei Jing coldly.

"What does General Wei mean?"

Jiang Mingwei came back to her senses from the chaos and looked up at Wei Jing in shock. He actually tried to save her?

Wei Jing stepped forward, protected Jiang Mingwei behind him without leaving a trace, and bowed to Jiang Mingjin.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Minister, but since my sister-in-law is married, she is a member of the Wei family. There is nothing wrong with me protecting my family. As for what she said... it's better to believe it than not to believe it! Instead of blaming my sister-in-law, it's better to take Madam Ling for a thorough check-up. With the rank of the Minister, it won't be difficult to find an imperial physician."

Jiang Mingjin pursed his lips, still staring at Jiang Mingwei vigilantly, and remained silent.

But Wei Jing turned around, his back slightly bent, and asked Jiang Mingwei in a low voice: "It's getting late, why don't you go back with me, sister-in-law?"

"Okay, I'll listen to my second brother."

Jiang Mingwei nodded and did not refuse.

As excited as she came, she left with great disappointment.

She lowered her head, her eyes were red and tears hung on her eyelashes, she looked pitiful and cute.

Wei Jing saw it and felt very uncomfortable.

He shouldn't have been involved in the dispute among the Jiang family, so he hadn't said anything just now.

It can be seen that Jiang Mingwei argued with reason, but was not understood and was beaten and scolded instead. He really couldn't help but took action.

Now it seems that it was the right thing to do.

Even though it was unpleasant, Jiang Mingjin and his wife had to come to the door to see them off.

Hua Cui got the news that she was leaving and ran out in a hurry.

She was very happy to see her father and mother. Just as she was about to talk to Jiang Mingwei, she saw that her eyes were red, as if she had been crying.

Then he looked at the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress with livid faces, and he immediately understood.

Not daring to say anything, he got on the carriage in silence.

Soon, the group left the Jiang family.

Seeing the carriage going away, Li Yihuan, with red eyes, reached out and lightly hit Jiang Mingjin's chest.

"My husband is usually such a calm person, why is he a different person when facing his own sister? Do you know how hurtful your words were today? I'm afraid Weiwei doesn't want to associate with us anymore!"

Jiang Mingjin's chest stagnated, but he still remained stubborn.

"I let her in today, which gave her a chance. Who would have thought that she would dare to hurt you again!"

Li Yihuan chuckled and shook his head slowly, "But saying I was poisoned, how can it be considered an injury? In the past, you made a fuss when I felt a little unwell, why don't you believe it this time?"

"Well! Even if you don't want to, I will still hire a new doctor. It would be best if an imperial physician comes to check. What if what Weiwei said is true?"

Seeing that his wife was angry, Jiang Mingjin looked flustered and hurried forward to chase her.

"Yihuan, you are a kind person. I have seen her character since she was young. She came to visit us today and brought Wei Jing with her. Isn't it just to confuse us?"

Li Yihuan was slightly startled, and pushed her husband away, her eyes full of disappointment.

"My husband, do you think that if she wants to go home alone, she can't come back? Bringing Wei Jing with me is firstly to conform to your secular views, and secondly, I know that you admire General Wei, so I want to bring him here to meet you!"

"You have completely misinterpreted your sister's good intentions. Husband, you are such a disappointment!"

After saying that, she lifted up her skirt and left in a hurry, leaving Jiang Mingjin standing there in a daze.

He looked down at his empty hands, realizing that he could neither hold his wife nor keep his sister.

So...did he really do anything wrong?

The carriage moved forward. The roomy interior was filled with space. Jiang Mingwei sat on the right side with her head down and remained silent. Hua Cui did not dare to say much either. She just stayed with her quietly.

Wei Jing knew that she was unhappy, and after thinking it over again and again, he lifted the curtain, jumped on the horse's back, and rode forward.

Leaving it in there for the master and servant to talk, they will feel better.

Hua Cui approached Jiang Mingwei cautiously, "Miss..."
