The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk
Chapter 396: Deep Love Between Husband and Wife
It was Old Madam Zhou who noticed something was wrong.
He stepped forward and stopped Jiang Wanqing's evil hand.
His eyes narrowed slightly as he questioned, "Are you dissatisfied that the injuries on Zi Gu's body from your beatings are not enough? Do you want to give him a few more injuries?"
Jiang Wanqing was stunned, with tears on her face.
She choked up and said, "How could mother-in-law say that to me! I was just too excited when I saw my husband fake his death, so I vented all the grievances I had for more than a year.
Since my husband is not dead, where did he go for more than a year? Why did he leave the huge Xingchang Marquis Mansion to me alone to manage?
Without my husband's salary, I have been using my dowry to support the Xingchang Marquisate for more than a year. If my husband came back earlier, I would be able to relax a little."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Zigu's face darkened.
Old Madam Zhou was also a little embarrassed.
He frowned and scolded in a low voice: "What nonsense are you talking about in front of so many people now? Do you think you are glorious?"
Jiang Wanqing couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
When I used my dowry before, I didn't say whether it was glorious or not.
Jiang Wanqing then said with a wronged look on her face: "Mother-in-law, what's glorious or shameful about this? My husband is not here. Although I have used my own dowry to support the family, I have at least taken good care of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion for my husband, so that the whole family will not starve.
Before Xiaoxiao was born, I was the one who managed the Xingchang Marquisate."
If it were the Jiang Wanqing of the past, perhaps she would not have told these bad things for the sake of the reputation of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion.
But now that I know what kind of people this family of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion is, I naturally can't hide these grievances anymore.
The people around couldn't help but look at Jiang Wanqing with a bit of admiration.
"It's not easy for Madam Zhou either."
"She should have been a newlywed, but she became a new widow. Fortunately, Zhou Zigu is not dead. Zhou Zigu must treat Madam Zhou well in the future."
"She used her own dowry to support the Zhou family. Madam Zhou is really a good lady."
"It's not easy..."
……
Zhou Zigu listened to the people around him, who were praising Jiang Wanqing.
He raised his hand and touched Jiang Wanqing's cheek.
There was a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Madam, you have really worked hard during this period. Don't worry, when I come back, I will definitely not let you suffer.
I haven't been home for more than a year because I was attacked by gangsters on my way to the border. I fell off a cliff and hit my head, which caused me to lose my memory. Now that I have recovered my memory, I can go home right away."
Jiang Wanqing felt the touch on her face and tried hard to suppress the feeling of nausea.
The other person's fingers were slightly cold.
Jiang Wanqing only felt that this chill made his back feel cold as well.
If I hadn’t known long ago what a black-hearted person Zhou Zigu was.
She was afraid that at this moment, looking at the deep affection in Zhou Zigu's eyes, she would really be deceived by Zhou Zigu and think that Zhou Zigu was really worried about her.
Jiang Wanqing couldn't bear it any longer.
One hand held Zhou Zigu's injured arm tightly.
She looked at Zhou Zigu with the same affection: "Of course I believe what my husband says."
Jiang Wanqing used some force in his hands.
Zhou Zigu couldn't help but take a breath in pain and frowned.
He looked at Jiang Wanqing suspiciously: Could this guy be made of iron? How could he be so strong?
Madam Zhou sensed something and pushed Jiang Wanqing away: "That's enough, why don't you go and urge the doctor."
Jiang Wanqing was pushed by Old Madam Zhou and fell backwards to the ground.
However, Jiang Wanqing put on some drama. When she fell to the ground, it looked like the other party had pushed her with great force.
Jiang Wanqing looked obedient and said carefully: "Yes, mother-in-law, I will go see the doctor right away, don't worry."
After saying that, Jiang Wanqing was about to stand up, but he cried out in pain and sat down on the ground again.
Jiang Wanqing covered her ankle, looked at Madam Zhou aggrievedly, and said, "Mother-in-law, I think my ankle was twisted when you pushed me just now."
Feeling the gazes of people around.
Old Madam Zhou felt a little unnatural.
I’m afraid that I’ll be misunderstood and become a wicked mother-in-law.
He stammered, "You...are you kidding me? How did you sprain your ankle? I didn't push you hard just now! How could you sprain your ankle just by touching it?"
Mo Yu stepped forward and helped Jiang Wanqing up.
Jiang Wanqing still walked with a limp.
I saw Jiang Wanqing tidying up her clothes.
He lowered his eyelids, but the tears were still rolling in his eyes.
He said in a muffled voice: "Mother-in-law is right, my daughter-in-law...my daughter-in-law's ankle is not twisted."
After saying that, Jiang Wanqing limped towards the long street with the support of Mo Yu.
The people around looked at Old Madam Zhou with a hint of scrutiny.
When Mrs. Zhou saw this, her eyes darkened.
Jiang Wanqing said that his ankle was not sprained, but he walked like that. Isn't this just trying to cover up one's own faults?
Listening to the meaning of her words just now, it seemed as if I was forcing her to say so.
Besides, when had Jiang Wanqing ever been so weak before?
She didn't use much strength just now.
How could Jiang Wanqing be pushed into that state?
Now, people around her look at her as if she were an evil mother-in-law.
Thinking of this, and looking at Jiang Wanqing's leaving back, Old Madam Zhou quickly scolded: "Where are you going again!"
Jiang Wanqing stopped, turned around and looked at Old Madam Zhou.
The whole person seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and explained: "Didn't mother-in-law just tell me to go see why the doctor hasn't come yet?"
Madam Zhou was speechless for a moment.
It was Zhou Zigu who noticed something was wrong.
I'm afraid if we continue to stay here, the Xingchang Marquisate will lose all face.
Then he said to Jiang Wanqing, "Mother was worried about my injury just now. She didn't know that you would beat me like this. Madam, please forgive me. It's because mother is too worried about me."
As expected, Zhou Zigu is a very cunning man.
A few words turned the situation around.
Let everyone's attention be diverted again.
Let everyone remember again that all the injuries on his body were caused by Jiang Wanqing.
Sure enough, everyone's attention was on Jiang Wanqing again.
Jiang Wanqing wiped her tears and choked up as she said, "If my husband could come home earlier, I would rather suffer all these injuries myself. If my mother-in-law hadn't sworn that you were dead, how could I not believe that you were my husband?"
With just a few words, Jiang Wanqing brought the conflict back to Old Madam Zhou.
Zhou Zigu frowned, his eyes thoughtful, and felt that Jiang Wanqing was not as simple as he seemed.
At that moment, he said, "Let's go back home first and talk about it later. Don't let others laugh at us."
