Yu Zongzheng was stunned and suffered a huge shock.
So! Was what Nanny Li had just said true?
Second Brother and Madam Xie really
Even Matriarch knew
Only he was kept in the dark?!
But how could Second Brother be with Madam Xie?
He must have heard wrongly just now. Yu Zongzheng shook his head hard and saw Nanny Li lying in a pool of blood. Her eyes were wide open and she died with remaining grievances.
Nanny Lis every word and sentence just now was especially audible.
He had no choice but to believe it!
Why was that?
Yang Shuwan laughed crazily. Yu Zongzheng, oh Yu Zongzheng, dont you think about it? The Yu Residence is a scholarly family, and youre the eldest son of the first wife. In the future, youll have to inherit the family business. Which eldest son of the first wife doesnt marry a woman of equal status and meticulous upbringing to manage the family business? However, Matriarch asked you to marry a businesswoman.
These words stabbed into Yu Zongzhengs heart like a knife, causing his expression to change drastically.
This was also something that Yu Zongzheng had not been able to let go of for so many years.
Haha, its because brother-in-law has long had a relations.h.i.+p with Madam
Xie in Quanzhou. However, hes high on the rankings and has entered the
Hanlin Academy. In the future, hell still enter the cabinet and be the Grand
Secretary. How can he marry a businesswoman?
Since he couldnt marry her, he sacrificed you to marry her. The Xie family is so rich. When the time comes, hell get both the money and the person. How good would that be
Its a pity that you became a fool and picked up your brother-in-laws used good and became his sacrifice
Yu Zongzhengs eyes turned red with anger as he shouted, Shut up, shut up! She did not want to believe Madam Yang.
However, back then, when Second Brother went to Quanzhou, he was indeed close to the Xie family. Second Brother had long known Xie Roujia. They were unrelated and for no reason. Why did the Xie family help Second Brother write Sea Map Strategy?
Once the seed of doubt was planted, it would take root in the heart and quickly grow into a towering tree.
Yang Shuwan was excited and kept grinning. If the parents around, the family wont be separated. There are only two brothers in the Yu Residence. Were a family, so how can we not be better together? Matriarch has never been in good health either. Isnt it more appropriate to have two daughters-in-law taking care of her at home? Why did you two split up so early? Dont you feel that something is amiss?
Yu Zongzhengs mind exploded. How could he not have felt it?
At that time, he had found it strange. His mother was a widow and had worked hard to raise the two of them. She often warned them to be united as brothers, hoping that the two of them could take care of each other and support each other.
Why did Second Brother have to split from the family as soon as he got married?
Not only were people divided into different families, but they were also divided into family businesses, relations.h.i.+ps, and interests. This divided the brothers who were originally as close as family into two families, and completely separated the brothers who were on the same path.
With parents around, there should be no separation between the families. It was the same for every family.
His mother was still alive, so it was unfilial to split up.
Second Brother was young, so no one would say much. However, as an elder brother, he had to inherit the family business. By splitting up the family early, it was inevitable that others would think that he couldnt tolerate Second Brother.
The separation had a greater impact on him.
Naturally, it was not something he would agree with.
However, his mother insisted on splitting up, and his second son did not object. He could not dissuade his mother, so they split up.
It wasnt that he didnt know that there was something wrong with his mothers att.i.tude at the time, but he couldnt figure it out.
If Second Brother had a relations.h.i.+p with Madam Xie, then everything would be explained.
After being husband and wife with Yu Zongzheng for more than ten years, Madam Yang knew him the best. She also knew very well what to say to control Yu Zongzheng.
A fire seemed to burn in her turbid eyes. Have you never suspected why Yu Youyao is closer to Second Uncle when shes clearly your daughter? Uncle treats Yu Youyao like his own daughter. Whatever Shuangbai has, Yu Youyao definitely has it too. Yu Youyao even has somethings that Shuangbai doesnt have
Yu Zongzheng felt dizzy. His second brother had doted on Yu Youyao since she was young.
He still remembered that on the day Madam Xie pa.s.sed away, Yu Youyao had cried all day. When he went to An Shou Hall to visit his mother, he saw his second brother hugging Yu Youyao.
It was strange. Yu Youyao, who had been crying non-stop, stopped crying after a while when she was in her second brothers arms.
At that time, he had even teased, A gentleman doesnt hug his child, only his grandchildren. Why are you hugging your niece?
Second Brothers expression was indifferent, but he did not say anything.
Yu Zongzheng suddenly realized that in the past, he had the best relations.h.i.+p with his second brother. It was only after he married Madam Xie that he unknowingly distanced himself from him.
At that time, he and his second brother had just entered the royal court. They were both very busy and did not think too much about it.
However, after Madam Xies death, his relations.h.i.+p with his second brother completely faded.
Second Brother did not come to the main house much anymore. Even if he did, he would not look for him anymore. Even if the two of them b.u.mped into each other, Second Brother did not speak to him much and ignored him.
Even if Old Madam doesnt like me, she shouldnt vent her anger on her grandchildren. Theyre all biological grandchildren, but Old Madam dotes on Yu Youyao and Shuangbai from the Second Mansion. Even the sons and daughters of concubines are more doted on than Jia Jia and Brother Si. Yang Shuwan giggled. Old Madam dotes on brother-in-law. She even dotes on his children more than yours.
After you married Madam Xie, you didnt stay in her room much, so she was married for three years and didnt have any children. She didnt get pregnant for three years. How did she suddenly get pregnant
Yu Zongzheng was completely stunned. Yang Shuwans words were like knives that cut through his rationality. He began to rack his brains to think about the past
He thought of his second brother and Madam Xie chatting and laughing together. Madam Xie smiled elegantly, completely unlike how cold and perfunctory she looked when facing him.
He thought of how his second brother had secretly looked at Madam Xie and pretended that he was fine when he discovered him. He thought that he was just looking at her by coincidence and did not think too much about it.
He recalled that when Madam Xie was building the Jade Courtyard, his second brother came to the main house every other day. Not long after the construction of the Jade Courtyard was completed, Madam Xie realized that she was pregnant.
Suspicions create imaginary fears!
All the seemingly normal scenes in the past had become abnormal at this moment.
Yu Zongzhengs eyes turned red as he strode out of the house.
Madam Yang was laughing crazily. Yu Zongzheng, you cuckold. Youre a fool.
You picked up your brothers used good. Did you feel comfortable using it? Mother dotes on her younger son. His wife is his lover, and his daughter is also his daughter. Are you happy raising your wife and daughter? Your mother, second brother, and the first wife joined forces and treated you as a fool. They lied to you and used you. Are you satisfied?
Who can you blame? If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being inferior to your second brother. Serves you right for being stepped on by him for all of your life and marrying a wh*re that he doesnt want just to pave the way for his future. Serves your mother right for only having your second brother in her heart and never caring about your feelings.. Serves Xie Roujia right for being disrespectful and fooling around with him
