Rebirth of the group's pet poisonous concubine, the violent and cold king is too tempting
Chapter 5 What is supposed to come will always come
Today, the Jiang family has three branches. The first branch, Jiang Mingxuan, is the eldest son and inherits the title of Duke Dingguo. Jiang Mingxuan is a conservative person who doesn't care about worldly things. He even sneers at the intrigues in officialdom. He only loves calligraphy and painting. Although he has been mediocre in officialdom, he loves painting as his life. His wife, Yan Xiaojun, comes from a scholarly family. She is well-educated, virtuous and kind. The two are very well matched. After marriage, they have a son and a daughter, the legitimate son Jiang Yanchen, the eldest legitimate daughter Jiang Shuya, and the illegitimate son Jiang Yanping and the illegitimate daughter Jiang Shuxian.
Although Jiang Hongtai, the second son, is a bastard, Jiang Mingxuan trusts him very much because he once saved Jiang Mingxuan's life.
Jiang Hongtai's wife Yuan Peishan is the cousin of Concubine Yuan. Now Concubine Yuan is enjoying the emperor's favor, and the Yuan family is also rising with the tide.
Yuan Peishan has only one daughter, Jiang Wanrong, whom she dotes on and pampers in every way. However, she does have two illegitimate sons, Jiang Yanbin and Jiang Yancheng.
Yuan Peishan has always regarded the two as thorns in her eyes and thorns in her flesh, and she wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible. Perhaps because Jiang Xinxue was so popular, Yuan Peishan was not too harsh on Jiang Xinxue, a concubine's daughter.
The Jiang family has been a military family for generations, but when it comes to Jiang Mingxuan, except for the third son Jiang Zhongming who holds military power and is named the General of Loyalty and Martial Arts, Jiang Mingxuan and Jiang Hongtai both took the path of civil officials.
Jiang Zhongming was away fighting outside all year round, and his wife Ruan Zhiyun stayed at the Jiang residence to teach the children. The two were childhood sweethearts and had a deep affection for each other. They had two sons, the eldest son Jiang Yanfeng and the second son Jiang Yanxu. Although Jiang Shuyu was not Ruan's biological child, she was still an infant when she was sent back, and she was taken care of by Ruan herself, treating her as her own.
She couldn't deny that Ruan treated her very well. Jiang Shuyu lowered her eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.
When did she start to be full of hostility towards Ruan? After she grew up, she often heard servants whispering that she was not Ruan's biological daughter. She was suspicious and naturally wanted to find out.
Later, when she was old enough to understand, she learned from Yuan Peishan that Ruan was jealous and could not tolerate her biological mother, so her biological mother traveled thousands of miles to find her husband while pregnant. Unexpectedly, she encountered an accident when giving birth to her and died in childbirth.
I believed it at first, but now I just find it funny.
Not to mention how a weak woman like her could reach the border, even if she managed to get there, in that chaotic place, looking for Jiang Zhongming would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. How could she be so blinded by greed and trust others!
"Girl, the fourth girl is here to see you!"
The sound from outside the door interrupted Jiang Shuyu's thoughts. Yuzhu walked in with a smile on her face. She then put the tray on the table and helped Jiang Xinxue to the bed.
"The fourth young lady really cares about you. Knowing you've woken up, she insisted on coming with me! The two young ladies have a deep bond, and their sisterly love is truly enviable!"
Looking at Yuzhu's flattering look, Yulan was worried and couldn't help muttering in her heart, if it wasn't for the fourth lady insisting on taking her daughter out for a trip, how could the girl fall into the water and suffer such a terrible crime? Now she is here to play the good person, but the girl is completely defenseless against her. It seems that she can only be more careful.
Jiang Shuyu naturally noticed Yu Lan's nervousness. As expected, she was the one in the dark. She couldn't see Jiang Xinxue's hidden thoughts, but Yu Lan did see some clues.
Without waiting for Jiang Shuyu to speak, Jiang Xinxue naturally sat down beside the bed and said with a worried look on her face: "Third sister finally woke up. Are you feeling better? I was worried about you these days..."
As she spoke, she took up a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, choking with sobs: "If Third Sister doesn't wake up, I can only die to atone for my sins!"
Suppressing the resentment in her heart, Jiang Shuyu looked at her carefully. Her skin looked even fairer against her moon-white Ruyi pleated skirt, and her features were elegant and beautiful. However, her eyes were erratic, revealing a greed. Her posture was dignified and decent, and she no longer had the timidity she once had.
When she first knew that she was not Ruan's biological daughter, she was very depressed.
I happened to meet Jiang Xinxue crying alone, and listened to her talk about her misfortune. She repeatedly emphasized the cruelty of all the legitimate mothers, who either beat or scolded them, the illegitimate children, and had no good intentions.
The reason why Ruan was so kind to her was simply because she felt guilty and wanted to atone for her sins.
All the good things she felt for Ruan were earned by her biological mother at the cost of her life. Jiang Xinxue's experience resonated with her, making her feel the same way and feel more pity for her.
Under this subtle influence, she gradually drew a line between herself and her stepmother who raised her since childhood.
Jiang Shuyu looked at her pretending to be alright, with a hint of coldness in her eyes. Since God had given her a chance to start over, she would definitely repay the harm she had suffered a hundredfold.
Jiang Shuyu shook off her outstretched hand and said angrily, "You should die as an apology!"
Jiang Xinxue was stunned and awkwardly withdrew her hand that was hanging in the air. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether what Jiang Shuyu said was true or false.
According to the past, shouldn't Jiang Shuyu say that this matter has nothing to do with her and comfort her not to blame herself? Why is this different from what she expected?
Seeing this, Yuzhu hurried forward to smooth things over. "Of course, our young lady knows what the fourth young lady is thinking. It's just that the young lady just woke up, and it's inevitable that she has nowhere to vent her frustration. The fourth young lady, please bear with her!"
Jiang Xinxue took the opportunity to continue the conversation: "After all, it was because of my sister Yu that I fell into the water. Even if my sister beat me up, I wouldn't say a word!"
Jiang Shuyu sneered at Yuzhu and said calmly, "Yuzhu really knows my heart!"
As he said that, he slapped Jiang Xinxue in the face. The crisp sound instantly rang out in the room, seeming so abrupt.
Yu Lan was stunned and closed her mouth for a long time. She looked at Jiang Shuyu with eyes full of admiration. She had long been fed up with the fourth young lady's delicate and artificial appearance.
Jiang Xinxue looked at Jiang Shuyu in disbelief. The burning pain on her face made her panic.
Jiang Shuyu picked up a handkerchief and wiped Jiang Xinxue's tears. She said with a distressed tone, "My sister knows how I treat her! I also had a nightmare this time. I actually dreamed that my sister pushed me into the water. I hit my sister. I shouldn't have done that!"
Hearing Jiang Shuyu's words, Jiang Xinxue stood up and said anxiously: "Sister Yu, you are joking. I was worried that you would not be able to help me, so how could I push you into the water!"
Seeing Jiang Xinxue's bewildered look, Jiang Shuyu curled her lips slightly, "My sister treats me very well, so of course she wouldn't push me into the water. It seems like this is really a nightmare!"
Listening to Jiang Shuyu's words, Jiang Xinxue couldn't help but feel nervous. Jiang Shuyu was usually easy to fool, but today she was out of character and kept mentioning this matter. Could it be that she discovered something and then denied this idea?
"Sister Yu was able to turn danger into safety this time, all thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Rui. If it weren't for His Royal Highness's rescue, my sister would have died!"
Jiang Shuyu paused, clenched her fist slightly, and looked at Jiang Xinxue with a half-smile. Sure enough, what is coming will come.
