Jiang Tingxia spoke clearly and straightforwardly, "I want to publish an advertisement to make it known to the public that I am not the biological daughter of the Jiang family."

Li Xiu pointed at Jiang Tingxia, her fingers trembling, "You..."

"How can you……"

Jiang Tingxia lowered her head slightly, not daring to look directly into Li Xiu's eyes. "Now, I also have people I want to protect. I can't let the Jiang family's affairs implicate my husband."

Jiang Tinghe's emotions exploded first. She shouted, "Jiang Tingxia!"

Her face turned red, and she rushed forward, full of anger as if she wanted to tear Jiang Tingxia to pieces.

"Jiang Tingxia, why do you get all the good things? When the Jiang family is doing well, you are the daughter of a rich family. When things are not going well, you just leave after being published in the newspaper. You are dreaming!"

Jiang Tingxia ignored Jiang Tinghe and said, "This matter will be reported in the newspapers in the next two days. I am just informing you and hope you will cooperate."

Jiang Tinghe felt so wronged and angry that her lungs were about to explode.

She shook off Li Xiu's hand that was trying to pull her, "Why am I so unlucky!"

Jiang Tinghe pointed at Li Xiu, her mother, and yelled in anger, "Why did you lose me? You made me suffer from a life of poverty. I don't know how you became someone's mother. You didn't even know that your child was swapped. You took good care of a person who was not related to you by blood for sixteen years."

Jiang Tinghe pointed at Jiang Tingxia's nose and said, "Mom, take a good look at this. You raised an ungrateful person who watched us die without saving us."

Every word Jiang Tinghe said was like a needle piercing her heart. The person Li Xiu felt most sorry for was her daughter. Seeing Jiang Tinghe's unstable mood, Li Xiu cried heartbrokenly, "I'm sorry, Xiaohe, it's mom who is sorry for you."

Jiang Tinghe thought about her unfortunate fate, the past that she couldn't bear to look back on, and the hopeless future before her. She covered her head and screamed, as if she had gone crazy.

Her whole life was ruined.

Jiang Tingxia was frightened by Jiang Tinghe's appearance and took a few steps back unconsciously.

Li Xiu looked at her with hatred, her eyes were red and scary, "For the sake of your husband's future and reputation, you want to be an ungrateful person?"

"Don't forget that it was the Jiang family who raised you. You owe us, you have to repay us!"

Jiang Tingxia had been having trouble eating and sleeping because of Li Changpu's matter, and he had been traveling for days, so his poor health meant he was just barely holding on. At this moment, when he heard Li Xiu's words, his face turned pale, but his eyes were still firm.

"The poisoned flour incident is so bad that even if they drag my husband into it, there is nothing we can do."

Li Xiu yelled, "My sons and daughters are all ruined."

"Don't think you can stay out of this."

"You are living a good life, so you have to take care of them, take care of them for the rest of their lives."

"Back then, you tricked me into marrying for you, and we agreed that we would no longer have any ties, and I would return the kindness I had brought up to you," Jiang Tingxia stood alone in the hall of the Jiang family, her voice still trembling slightly, "When you slandered me as a fallen woman in front of my husband, the last bit of affection we had was completely thrown away."

Li Xiu looked puzzled, "Are you blaming me when you say this?"

Before Jiang Tingxia could answer, Li Xiu continued, "What do you want from me?"

Looking at Jiang Tingxia's fair, tender, and pampered face, Li Xiu was heartbroken. "I have raised you for more than 20 years, and made you graceful, well-educated and well-mannered. But what about my daughter? She has suffered so much in an unknown place, and has been abused in the mud. How can I be calm and treat you with justice!"

Li Xiu pinched her fingers, "I just asked you to do a small thing for us. You married Xiao He instead of Xiao He as compensation, but you blame us for being unfair to you! You resent us!"

Li Xiu looked at Jiang Tinghe, who was in a state of collapse, and asked, patting her chest, "What about us mother and daughter? How can God be fair to us mother and daughter?"

"I was just a baby at that time. Why do you put all the blame on me for Jiang Tinghe's misfortune?" Jiang Tingxia asked, "Why did Mother Lin replace the child?"

She looked at Li Xiu, her eyes bright and clear, "You have never been kind to others, have you ever thought that it is you who has done the evil..."

"Snapped!"

Li Xiu slapped Jiang Tingxia with such force that even her hand felt slightly numb.

These were the words she hated to hear the most, and Jiang Tingxia actually dared to mention them in front of her.

Jiang Tingxia was slapped in the face, her face was knocked to the side. She turned around and looked at Li Xiu and the others, only to see her cheeks immediately become red and swollen.

Her eyes were burning, but she didn't cry. "You said that as long as I get married obediently, I won't owe you anything. I will just sever ties with you. I will publish an announcement to clarify everything. I am not the biological daughter of the Jiang family."

Jiang Hai, a grown man, actually cried out loud. He held Jiang Tingxia's arm and begged, "Sister, I have always treated you as my own sister. You can't ignore your brother at this time."

Jiang Tinghe scolded Jiang Hai for being useless, "Jiang Tingxia, don't even think about getting away with it when something happens to the Jiang family!"

"I don't have any influence from the Jiang family, but you do. Don't even think about severing your relationship with the Jiang family. You have been the eldest daughter of the Jiang family since you were a child, and you will be one for the rest of your life."

Jiang Tinghe has been claiming to be the adopted daughter of the Jiang family until today. At first, Jiang Tinghe blamed the old man of the Jiang family in her heart, but now it seems that she has to admit that her grandfather is far-sighted.

If anything happened to the Jiang family, she, the adopted daughter, would never be implicated.

Now that the Jiang family is in trouble, Jiang Tinghe is even more reluctant to acknowledge herself as the biological daughter of the Jiang family. At this moment, she is somewhat grateful for the decision made by Mr. Jiang.

Jiang Tinghe would never follow Jiang Tingxia's wishes and let the two of them return to their positions at this time.

"Jiang Tingxia, you wanted to publish an advertisement to tell everyone that you are not the biological daughter of the Jiang family. But, how could it be such a coincidence that you said this when the Jiang family was in trouble and wanted to sever ties with the Jiang family? Who would believe you?"

"As long as no one in the Jiang family admits it, everything is just your own drama, just to add insult to injury for the Jiang family."

"You want to clarify, it's impossible."

Neither side was willing to give in, and the situation reached a stalemate.

Jiang Tingxia had expected that Jiang Tinghe would not want to tell the truth, so she slowly said, "I'll make a deal with you."

"Grandpa left a treasure for the Jiang family's descendants. I know where it is."

Everyone looked at Jiang Tingxia in surprise, and then returned to normal.

Jiang Hai clapped his hands anxiously, "Ting Xia, money is the most useless thing right now."

"There are so many wealthy families in Wenhai who are eager to bury their gold, silver and jewelry in the ground. They are life-threatening things."

"What you need to do is save big brother's life. What do we need money for? Are you dissatisfied that we are not dying fast enough?"

Jiang Tingxia knew that nowadays, money could not save lives, and might even cost them.

But those treasures are still useful.

"Jiang Hai has a woman outside and has two children."

Jiang Hai looked at Jiang Tingxia in surprise, "How did you know?"
